In fact, when Luo Xing accidentally showed his feet in front of me and revealed his identity in that dream - "Lao Hu", I already understood why Luo Xing wanted to hide this information: At the end of the dream that Lin Sen did for the last time before his death, it was this "Lao Hu" who killed "Xiao Guo" who represented Lin Sen.

But at the same time, I also had another doubt: since Luo Xing didn't want to say that his identity in that dream was "Lao Hu", why didn't he lie earlier? This is very simple, you only need to delete the part where Lao Hu killed Xiao Guo when retelling Lin Sen's dream.

I have a headache when I think of this, because I think of a very helpless fact - I have no way of judging whether Luo Xing's words are true or false.

From the time I came into contact with this case to the present, the information I can get is very limited, and most of it is Luo Xing talking to himself, if he wants to play any tricks, I will almost be led by the nose.

This upset me a little.

A person who claims to be in danger of his life comes to you for help, but he is still secretive and doesn't want to tell you the truth - I'm afraid it would be upset to be anyone.

However, I didn't show this unhappiness obviously, and the reason was simple: Lao Dao handed me the case and gave me a five-digit check, which was genuine, and I really hadn't opened it for some days.

It's a causal cycle. If I can't get along with the money, my bills will be with me.

There's always a way to get into trouble, isn't it? After all, the purpose of people paying money is to ask you to solve trouble.

So I adjusted my sitting position, "So, please." I said.

I thought I was going to hear another long story, but Roshing just shook his head, "I...... Didn't kill him. He muttered.

The evidence of the "Lin Sen murder case" presented by the police has shown that Lin Sen's room has no traces of forcible entry, the doors and windows are locked from the inside, and no other suspicious things have been found in the camera surveillance of the community and nearby roads.

Of course, there are still suspicions, for example, Lin Sen's house is surprisingly clean, and even fingerprints and hairs and other things can hardly be collected, and it is generally impossible for a normal person who lives here to be so 'clean'.

According to the information that Lao Dao found from the police station, the police are also very troubled by this case, which is almost a perfect closed room murder case, and there is no evidence to trace - all the conditions for becoming a recognized "unsolved case", and now the police have almost given up hope of solving the case. And there are all kinds of sayings about this strange and terrifying strange case in the society, including both the saying that it is a joke when you hear it, and the explanation that can make your hair stand on end.

But these are not the key, the key is that Lin Sen's close friends, including Luo Xing, have an unassailable alibi: the time of death derived from Lin Sen's autopsy report was midnight after Lin Sen's last party ended, but at the same time, Luo Xing, Fang Zhe, Liu Yao, and Meng Rong drank all night in that bar, and there were more than a dozen eyewitnesses available for police questioning. What's more, because the five of them were regular customers of that bar, and the five of them had an argument that night, the bartender and several waiters at the bar all remembered the events of that night deeply, and their confessions all proved that except for Lin Sen who left the venue early, the other four did not get up and leave until five o'clock in the morning.

So, I don't have any doubts about Roshing's claims, unless he has the same magical powers as the doppelganger, and can go to Lin Sen's house and kill him while drinking at a bar - which is obviously impossible. Take 10,000 steps back, even if Luo Xing really has a doppelganger technique, then I'm afraid he will have to have another wall piercing technique, otherwise how can he leave from a locked secret room through a door and window?!

Although I am a so-called "spirit detective", I can't use such irresponsible words to solve the case, so what's the difference between that and a street scammer? What's more, this is also a clear insult to the IQ of the vast majority of people.

If I rely on such "skills" to eat, I am afraid that my broken grocery store will be smashed every minute to pick up signs, and people will have to be beaten and unable to take care of themselves.

So I nodded, "I know you didn't kill him, otherwise, you should be in jail now, not in my office." I smiled.

I meant to make a joke and ease the atmosphere, because Luo Xing's condition is not very good, and I am afraid that he will fall ill again.

But my joke didn't resonate with anyone present, and in the end I was the only one who laughed, Luo Xing's face was still gloomy, and the old knife looked at me with an idiot look, I could only cough dryly, slightly hiding the embarrassment.

"I mean, in that dream I had, I didn't kill him." Luo Xing said to me word by word, and green tendons gradually appeared on his forehead, "It's him...... Kill, go, me! ”

As soon as Luo Xing said this, I reacted, it turned out that what Luo Xing said was not something in reality, but something in that strange dream: Lao Hu didn't kill Xiao Guo, but Xiao Guo killed Lao Hu!

I can't help but blame myself for not thinking of this.

"Mr. Luo, don't get excited, speak slowly." I say.

Luo Xing took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled, I could see that he was trying to calm down, and I waited patiently for him to speak.

"I started having that dream when we were having a party that night......"

"Wait, at the party? The party on the night of Lin Sen's death? "I don't want to interrupt Luo Xing, but I am very confused about this question, because all the witnesses have confirmed that except for Lin Sen, the remaining Luo Xing and the other four people left the bar at five o'clock in the morning.

"Indeed, everyone can confirm that we didn't leave until five o'clock in the morning that night, but except for one person." Luo Xing said, "That person is me." ”

I felt incredible, "You...... Leaving early? ”

"No, I didn't leave, but I was drunk." "So, actually, I don't know if anyone ever left that night — although all of them can confirm that they didn't." ”

Speaking of this, Luo Xing's eyes narrowed slightly, and his face was full of suspicion, and then he asked me: "After I was sent to a psychiatric hospital, a lot of bad things happened, and the only good thing is that I have never had more than I have ever had, and I can use it for cranky thoughts." These days, I've been thinking about the question – what if all the people were lying? They both say they haven't left, and they can both prove to each other...... But I didn't see it with my own eyes! What if they colluded to kill Lin Sen while I was drunk, and then made up a consistent lie to make everyone think that none of them had ever left that bar? ”

Roshing's tone was a bit aggressive when he asked me this question, and it was the first time he had shown such an attitude since he entered my office.

I was speechless for a moment.

However, it was not that I was swayed by Roxing's words and then had another suspicion about the whole incident, but I could not think for a moment how to persuade him to give up such pointless speculation.

In fact, although what Luo Xing said is not 100% impossible, it is ...... Evidence must be used in everything. So far, at least, I don't have any evidence to support Roshing's suspicions, and his simple fantasy is unlikely to be the basis for overturning the testimony of a dozen eyewitnesses. What's more, Luo Xing's current identity is still a "persecuted paranoia" in a state of treatment.

Obviously, if Roshing had been clinging to his so-called "suspicions", his persecution paranoia would never have been cured by the hospital.

"First of all, I acknowledge the question you raised...... There is a very, very subtle possibility. I tried to be as careful as I used my words, hoping not to provoke too strong a reaction from Roxing, "However, you must know that this is just your personal subjective conjecture, and on this alone, you can't convince me, let alone the police, without other evidence to support it." ”

"Evidence?" Luo Xing suddenly sneered, "Mr. Ji, I take the liberty of asking: In terms of your profession, how many of the incidents you have handled have been completely resolved by evidence?"

It really caught me in the way, and I thought about it for a moment and could only explain, "You can't take my profession as an example." In fact, I also act on the basis of evidence most of the time, although my 'evidence' may be a little different from the 'evidence' that the police admit. ”

Luo Xing sneered with cunning, "It's just right, my evidence may be very much in line with your style." ”

I have to admit that for the first time in the confrontation with Luo Xing, I fell into the disadvantage. But that's fine, and sometimes it's easier to get the information I need out by making my clients feel like they're on the upper hand, especially since I've now put Roshing in the "most troublesome" category.

"Very well, I'll hear you." I shrugged.

But I didn't wait for Luo Xing to speak, but immediately threw out a question that made his smile freeze: "But I still have a question - the four of you, as witnesses to Lin Sen's last meeting before his death, have a close relationship with Lin Sen, and the police should interrogate you, but why are you alone listed as a key suspect and detained for half a month?" ”

It's a question I've been preparing for a long time, and I'm throwing it out now, and it's in the nature of a raid.

Unexpectedly, Luo Xing seemed to be prepared, and the expression on his face was only slightly stagnant, "At that time, the police were not the only one who was suspicious, and at the beginning, Fang Zhe was more suspicious than me." ”

I nodded, "That's right, everyone proves that that night, Fang Zhe and Lin Sen had an argument. ”

I said this in my mouth, as if I agreed with Luo Xing's explanation, but my eyes were still firmly fixed on Luo Xing's eyes, and I believe Luo Xing must understand what I mean.

"You don't have to look at me like that. The reason is simple—" Roshing said, "I don't cooperate." ”

I'll wait for the following.

"I told the police that Lin Sen did not die by suicide." Luo Xing Road.

I raised an eyebrow, and the answer was a little surprising to me.

"You must remember that I said before that the one who killed Lin Sen was a man named Red Satin. But do you know who Red Sain is? ”

"If nothing else, it's the woman in the dream who was tortured into a human stick and put in a water tank, right?" I replied, "You said that Red Satin wants revenge on you. ”

"Yes, but it's not right either."

"Oh?"

"Let me ask again, do you know who Red Sain is?"

Luo Xing asked this on purpose, but I didn't think of what the answer was for a while, so I asked rhetorically: "Do you know?" ”

"I don't know." Roshing said.

At this moment, I really wanted to spill the cup of tea in front of me on this psychopath's face - for the sake of the five-figure check, I didn't do that. But I swear that if this psycho dares to trick me again, I'll give him this cup of hot tea I have in hand, along with that check.

"I really don't know who Red Satin is, but Lin Sen is indeed dead, which means that Red Satin is already lurking around me." Luo Xing's face sank again, "I said that I will be the next one to die, and I will soon know who Red Satin is and which of the three of them it is!" But I didn't want to be tied back, so that's why I found you! ”

After I understood the meaning of this passage, I also felt cold.

Luo Xing has always said that he will be the next person to die, and he must have his own basis, and the meaning of his words seems to be suspecting that his three close friends, namely Fang Zhe, Liu Yao, and Meng Rong, one of them, is "Red Satin". What's more critical is that Luo Xing seems to have made up his mind to fight this "red satin" to the death.

The so-called "life and death", to put it bluntly, is to kill the other party before they kill themselves!

Thinking of this, I glanced at Lao Dao, which meant: No matter what, I will not get involved in a premeditated murder case, if Luo Xing really wants to do this, I will definitely withdraw! Moreover, the labor fee will not be refunded!

The old knife spat out a smoke ring, which seemed to answer: it doesn't matter.

I immediately understood: Lao Dao, this bastard, must have known Luo Xing's idea for a long time, and even Luo Xing explained it to Lao Dao at the beginning, but Lao Dao still took the case and pushed it to me!

I slashed the old knife in at least ten swearful tricks in my heart, and finally glared at him fiercely: Fuck, we'll see!

At the same time, Luo Xing also began to tell, and I knew that this paragraph would be very critical information, so I took it to heart.

In any case, I plan to listen to Luo Xing's story first.

Looking back now, I really doubt that I made the right decision, and maybe I should have stopped just in time when Roshing had that crazy idea, because the whole thing that followed was like a trip to hell, full of uncomfortable stories, and there was no more option for me to opt out.
