Chapter 23: The Reversal of the Nightmare
Xu Tian told Teacher Jin about his reasoning, and since he met Lao Chen this morning, Xu Tian has been thinking about the whole incident.
"Are you suspicious of Lao Chen?" Teacher Jin said.
"I can't say that I suspect it, it's just that this link is related to Officer Chen, I edited the text message to Officer Chen, but the group of fake policemen came here, but in the end, Sharon, Yanzi, Aunt Xu and the salesman who were taken away by them all appeared at the police station, how can this be explained?" Xu Tian said.
"It's not certain that those people are fake policemen, and I believe Lao Chen." Teacher Jin said.
"If the man who escaped wants to escape from this hotel, this is the only way to do it, or the man has superpowers." Xu Tian said.
"No, you can't suspect the local police, if those people are fake police, then Lao Chen can't hide it from you, there must be other possibilities about that man escaping from the hotel." Teacher Jin said.
"It's a small inn, only three floors are inn rooms, you've already searched it, right? There was no one else hiding in the inn now. Xu Tian said.
"It's true that no one is in the hotel, and Li Zhitong and I are waiting for you here because of this case, we admit that it is really difficult to detect the escape of the man, and we really can't deduce what the truth is." Teacher Jin said.
During the period when Xu Tian and Teacher Jin were talking, Li Zhitong walked a little farther away to make a phone call, and after Li Zhitong's questioning, those policemen were indeed real police, and the hotel's monitoring equipment had been taken away by the police.
"There is no doubt about it, the police can confirm that those policemen are real, and there is indeed a picture of the man escaping into the hotel in the surveillance, as you deduce, the man fled in the direction of the guest room on the first floor, because the surveillance equipment is more secretive, and the hotel of this specification only has a surveillance camera at the front desk." Li Zhitong said.
"Speaking of which, the matter of the man's escape is still unresolved, and I have thought of all the possibilities, if the hotel window is fine, then this is an impossible escape." Xu Tian said.
"There must be other possibilities, the clue is still in this inn." Li Zhitong said.
"It's a bit impossible for a man to hide in a suitcase, can this idea be ruled out?" Xu Tian said.
"Of course! The local police had inspected everyone's suitcases, including the salesman's lockers, when they searched the hotel. Li Zhitong said.
For the first time, Xu Tian fell into a complete reasoning blind spot, and the impossible escape was staged in front of Xu Tian's eyes, if legally speaking, Xu Tian can be said to be the main witness of this incident, but Xu Tian didn't see where the man fled at all.
"Don't worry, we've been discussing it all morning, we've also thought about sewers, we've also contacted the relevant departments, and there is no sewer in the hotel for an adult to escape." Teacher Jin said.
"Then this incident is impossible to solve, and until now, can you be sure that the inn has never left the police surveillance?" Xu Tian asked.
"I just evacuated the two remaining police officers before you came, and I knew you were coming, so I let them go back." Teacher Jin said.
"So what was your previous assumption? I can refer to your inference. Xu Tian asked.
"We also thought of what you thought of, but we didn't dare to think about the problem of the police, Li Zhitong also confirmed just now, there is no problem with the police, there is no such thing as the man getting out of the police." Teacher Jin said.
"Then the truth is very far away, and I can only think about that man's invisibility and wall piercing techniques." Xu Tian said.
"This is not like your style, the Xu Tian I know will definitely find out the truth." Teacher Jin said.
"I'm ashamed, this time I really can't figure out what the truth is, if I can't catch that man, I can't understand why Hailan picked up the doll after getting out of the car." When Xu Tian said this, he suddenly thought of something. "By the way, the waiter at the inn picked up a doll in Sharon's room, right?" Xu Tian said.
"What? Did you find a clue? Teacher Jin said.
"Sharon doesn't admit to seeing that doll?" Xu Tian asked.
"Lao Chen should have told you about this, right?" Teacher Jin said.
"It's very likely that Sharon stayed overnight and didn't open the bedside table, even if it was us, sometimes we wouldn't open the cabinet when staying in a hotel, so how did the doll end up in Sharon's room?" Xu Tian said.
"This reason is indeed reasonable, so you mean to wonder how the doll appeared, right?" Teacher Jin said.
"That's right, I was in the hallway when the waiter went into the room where Sharon lived, and no one could see the situation in the room." Xu Tian said.
"Then you suspect that the waiter put the doll in the bedside table?" Teacher Jin said.
"All I can say is that it's very probable, you should be able to think of it, right? If Sharon had put the doll in before she had moved into the hotel, there was no guarantee that Sharon would have opened the bedside table, and what if Sharon found the doll? Xu Tian said.
"If Sharon and the waiter are in the same group, then what if Sharon finds the doll?" Teacher Jin said.
"It's exactly as you said......" A picture suddenly flashed in Xu Tian's mind, when after Sharon checked out, Xu Tian was standing in the corridor to reason, and after hearing an exclamation from the waiter, Xu Tian rushed into the room, and when Xu Tian saw the doll, he rushed out of the hotel to chase Sheron, but when he chased outside, he saw Sheron standing next to the burning car and calling the fire alarm.
"I see! The man was running away, everything was distracting me, why did the waiter shout when he saw the doll? It was as if the waiter knew that the doll was a terrible thing. And where did that waiter come from? I stood in the hallway and watched Sharon check out and walk out of the hotel, my eyes were always on the door of the hotel, but I didn't see the waiter coming from the direction of the front desk. After Sharon walked out of the hotel, I kept thinking about where the man who escaped was hiding, but at that time, the waiter entered Sharon's room to clean up, and I didn't take a picture of the waiter, that is, the waiter walked into Sharon's room from behind me, and behind me was the bathroom and Aunt Xu's room......"
