8. Speculation

At the moment when the door was opened, I only felt that my heart had jumped to my throat, and I looked at the person who opened the bathroom door in shock, but when I really saw the person in front of me, I was stunned in astonishment, because it was no one else standing in front of me, it was Zong Mingyan.

Apparently he himself was also shocked, and when he saw me standing behind the door, he exclaimed suspiciously: "He Yang? Why are you here? ”

I didn't know how to explain it to him for a moment, and then I asked the same question: "How did you get here?" ”

Then Zong Mingyan asked me as if he had reacted to something, "How long have you been hiding behind the door?" ”

I came back to my senses, and my heart began to be a little alert, after all, no one who came here tonight would be easy, so I looked at him defensively and said, "You came by yourself." ”

It was obvious that Zong Mingyan sensed my vigilance, so he took a step back so as not to further make me feel oppressed, and then he said: "I received an anonymous phone call, and the person on the phone asked me to come to the scene of the murder to take a look, maybe I will find something, so I came." ”

Anonymous calls? Is it the same situation as me, he looked at me after speaking: "What about you?" And why are you here, and you're hiding behind the bathroom door, that is, ......"

Zong Mingyan's thoughts turned quickly, although he didn't say the words later, but looking at his expression, I already knew what he was going to say, so I didn't hide it from her and nodded: "Yes, the murderer has already come." ”

Zong Mingyan asked me, "Have you seen who it is?" ”

I shook my head, and there was still a lot I didn't understand, but for the time being my mind was a bit chaotic, and I didn't have time to think about it so much at this time, so I asked him, "Didn't you meet anyone when you came?" ”

Zong Mingyan shook his head, and then I told him roughly what happened after I came here, one thing we can basically be sure of, the murderer was looking for a very important thing at the scene, but he didn't find it, and then made a phone call, I don't know why he left again, it may be that he knew about Zong Mingyan's arrival, but it may also be other reasons.

Zong Mingyan listened and said: "He came to the scene to look for it, and he didn't find it, so it means that this thing is very important, it is something that he himself is not sure about, and it is even related to why this case happened, and it may be his motive for committing the crime." ”

I felt that the clues were vague and I couldn't figure out where to start, so I said, "But what could it be?" ”

Zong Mingyan said: "Judging from the follow-up clues, although this is the scene of the crime, all the parties are not the heads of households, so the question is, the victim and the murderer, including you, have nothing to do with here, so why did you come here and be all involved?" ”

Zong Mingyan instantly grasped the core of the problem, I remembered that during the day, Fu Shaolou asked him to check the information of the head of the household, and suddenly felt that he received an anonymous call asking him to come to the scene, as if there was some clue connection, as if he was naturally involved, but I couldn't figure out what it was, and this thought just flashed in my mind, and I didn't think much about it.

I asked him, "Then you came to check the information of the head of the household during the day, did you find anything?" ”

Zong Mingyan said: "Only one name was found, and only one name was registered on the property, called Ren Yanyan, and there was nothing else." ”

I repeated: "Ren Yanyan? ”

Zong Mingyan said: "There is only so much information that can be obtained for the time being, and it may also be a fake name or even a fake identity. ”

I didn't speak, I thought it was complicated, and then Zong Mingyan spoke again, he said: "As I said before, there must be a reason why these people are all gathered here, at least there is some connection, maybe it has something to do with what the murderer is looking for." ”

I can't figure out what I have to do with here, if you add the dead rider, then there are two delivery riders, so what do our two delivery riders have to do with here?

I just thought about it, and Zong Mingyan said: "I always feel that there is a very strange place in the whole case, and I don't seem to have an exact clue. ”

I asked, "What's the odd thing?" ”

Zong Mingyan said: "According to our current interpretation of the case, the person who ordered takeout here and waited for you to come is not the head of the household, but only you have seen this person, you said that he is Zhou Tongcheng, Zhou Tongcheng is a police officer, so why is he here, and he ordered takeout here, from after you were stunned by him with drugs, you said that you vaguely heard him talking to someone, that is to say, there was a third person at the scene, so who is this person, what does it have to do with Zhou Tongcheng, according to the next case, he ordered an identical takeaway, Then this rider was killed and became a pig-headed corpse sitting on the couch, so why did he kill this rider and not kill you? This is the suspicion of the case. And in the whole case, these two identical takeaways, you said that the remarks require that no salt be added, why can't salt be added, is it a trick or is there something else hidden, or even a key point that we haven't thought of? ”

I listened to Zong Mingyan's analysis, but I couldn't interject, so I didn't speak and looked at him, Zong Mingyan continued: "The two takeaways he ordered were all white meat, but only one takeaway was found at the scene, so what about the other one, was eaten or taken away, if you ate it, then the lunch box and other garbage were not found, combined with the clues after that night, I suspect that one of the two people who pretended to be you and left that night should have taken away this white meat, but if so, why did he take one and stay at the scene?" ”

Hearing Zong Mingyan say this, these details that are easy to be ignored are really incredible, so I said, "Could it be that you think too much?" ”

Zong Mingyan said: "In such a complex case, it is this kind of tiny details that are easy to be overlooked, but often there are very important clues, and even the core of solving the case, I always feel that this 'don't add salt' is very unbelievable, if it is used to eat, then it may be taboo, most people's first thought will also be like this, if it is not used to eat, it will be used for what it is, white meat without salt......"

Zong Mingyan fell into this puzzle, and I didn't express my opinion if I couldn't figure it out, but changed the topic and asked: "Then what is the murderer looking for?" ”

Zong Mingyan said: "There must be some clues, hidden in what you saw and heard that night, I suspect that they stunned you and kidnapped you here, probably because you know this thing." ”

Zong Mingyan's rhetoric became more and more outrageous, which made me a little unbelievable, and Zong Mingyan continued to guide me to ask: "Before the crime, did you get anything unexpected or something more abnormal?" ”

Fu Shaolou had already asked this question, and I had also thought about it, my life was monotonous and repetitive, and nothing special happened, so I shook my head.

Zong Mingyan didn't continue to ask, he went to the room, as if he thought of something, I followed him in, after entering the room, I asked him if he thought of something, but he whispered to me: "Do you think that there seems to be another person in this room?" ”

I was stunned for a moment: "There is another person?" ”

Zong Mingyan said: "I also suddenly had this feeling, it seems that since I came in, I have been inside, but we have not been aware of it. ”

I felt a chill down my spine, and Zong Mingyan asked me, "Did you make sure there was no one here when you came?" ”

I wasn't sure, because I didn't look closely, and I said, "The door was open when I came." ”

As soon as I had finished speaking, we all heard the sound of a door being slammed outside, judging by the sound, it was the door of the house.

Zong Mingyan was the first to chase out, and I followed closely and was about to go out as well, when I suddenly heard a soft "bang" in the closet in the room, as if something had fallen inside, Zong Mingyan was in a hurry to go out and didn't hear it, but I happened to hear it.

So I stopped and looked at the closet, I swallowed and walked to the closet, and pulled the closet door open.
