Chapter 9 The lights are dark
Soon after, a chubby man in a formal suit followed Officer Lu to the room. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 According to Officer Lu, this person is the manager of this hotel.
However, it can be seen that this manager is not a nosy person, because he did not ask us anything about the case, but after a few polite words, he gave us the room card at the scene of the crime and left.
Perhaps, in his eyes, whether it is us or Officer Lu, or Wang Xinyan and the couple, it is his trouble. He just wants us to solve the case quickly so that the eighth floor of the hotel can be restored to normal use.
While we were going to the room on the eighth floor of the crime scene, Officer Lu also received a phone call saying that the police had finally stopped the deceased's wife when she was about to take the deceased's ashes and get on the plane. And at the request of Mu Zihan, he was taken to the scene of the crime in the hotel, and it is expected to be reached in half an hour.
After hearing the news, Mu Zihan unconsciously quickened his pace, maybe he wanted to solve all the mysteries of this case before the deceased's wife arrived.
Returning to the scene of the crime again, when opening the door, Mu Zihan was suddenly stunned, staring at the door lock in a daze for a while, and our attention was also attracted by him.
It's a pity that all I see are very common hotel sensor locks and anti-leeching chains. At most, the lock may be a bit old and has many small scratches on it, but it doesn't find anything worth paying attention to.
"I checked the scene again, and sure enough, there was a harvest, and when I opened the door, there was such a big discovery." Saying that, Mu Zihan smiled mysteriously, then turned around and walked out of the door, stood in the aisle and looked around, looked at Officer Lu with a blank face and asked: "By the way, the aisles of this hotel should be equipped with surveillance cameras, have you retrieved those video materials?" ”
"Of course. However, it is a pity that the room at the scene of the crime is located at the corner of the corridor. So..."Officer Lu replied awkwardly.
"So, this room is in a surveillance blind spot?" Mu Zihan finished helping him finish, and after seeing him nod, he asked again, "What about the upstairs room?" Same as this? ”
"I don't know very well either, we only called up the surveillance video from the eighth floor." Officer Lu replied.
"Oh, forget it, it doesn't matter. This doesn't matter anymore for now. However, I am sure of at least one thing, and that is why the wife of the deceased should identify the room in this location. Even for it, he did not hesitate to make trouble in the hotel lobby regardless of his image. Mu Zihan smiled and walked into the room again.
"Why?" I followed him and couldn't help but ask.
Even if the location of this room is in the blind spot of the surveillance camera, there are still cameras in the corridors on both sides, at most, it is in the small space of less than 2-3 square meters at the door, which will not be photographed by the camera.
"The reason is very simple, the location of this room can be described as a feng shui treasure for people with bad intentions." Mu Zihan checked it in the room and said, "Siyuan, this room is located in the blind spot of monitoring, so I don't need to say this anymore." And not far from the left side of it, is the safety exit. According to my visual inspection, half of the exit doors are also in the blind spot of monitoring. As for the fire staircase behind the safety exit, I think you don't have to ask to know that there must be no camera. Therefore, the murderer only needs to pull the security exit against the door of the half of the room at the scene of the crime, and enter and exit the room and even the hotel at will without being captured by the surveillance camera. ”
Saying that, you may see that I am still a little confused. So he explained as a whole: "In my opinion, the murderer's original plan should have been to use a certain method in the room to kill the deceased, and then use the power card to keep the room powered up." Then, take advantage of the blind spot and leave the hotel. Make your own alibi. Even, for this plan, she started rehearsing or preparing a year ago, or even earlier. That's why I have been traveling here for several years and staying in the same room in the same hotel. It's a pity that she didn't miss a little bit after all her calculations, that is, this time Xinyan booked this room earlier than her, which can be regarded as Skynet's restoration and negligence. That's why she made a fuss in the hotel lobby. ”
"How do you know for sure?" This time, Officer Lu asked faster than me, because I was still thinking about Mu Zihan's words.
"Simple, do you see the anti-leeching chain behind that door? Ever feel like there's something wrong with it? Mu Zihan pointed to the door and said, "That's right, it's a little longer." Actually, I've been wondering before, even if the murderer gets the room card for this room. However, if Xinyan had fastened the burglar chain from the inside of the room before going to bed, she would not have been able to fully open the door from the outside. However, it now seems that this is no longer a problem. ”
Mu Zihan finally smiled and concluded: "So, it can be seen that when I stayed in this room a few years ago, the murderer had secretly replaced the chain on the inside of this room door for a longer time. That way, even outside the door, she could reach in and undo the chains. ”
"Did she know that Wang Xinyan would book the room this time? That's why you're prepared. Fang Ling also asked suspiciously.
"Of course it can't be, or she wouldn't have made trouble in the hotel lobby." Mu Zihan stared at the bloodstains on the carpet and said without looking back: "According to my estimate, it is more likely that she originally planned to create a fake secret room murder. The modus operandi is probably that after killing the deceased, she locked the anti-leech chain from the outside, and then ran to the outside of the hotel through the blind spot of the surveillance, using the safe passage and fire staircase. After creating an alibi, he pretended to call the hotel front desk and found an excuse for the waiter to confirm the status of his husband in the room. When the waiter confirms that the door is chained from the inside, then the fake murder in the secret room is complete. ”
After listening to his explanation, it finally dawned on me that it seemed that in order to kill her husband, it was not like taking criminal responsibility, and this woman was also scheming. would actually spend years arranging this murder plan, and I don't know what her husband did to be sorry for her, which would make her hate her so much.
"Oh, I see. It's just that since she has been able to wait for so many years, why did she still forcibly carry out the murder this time when she was disrupted by Xinyan's original plan. Fang Ling asked puzzled.
"That's something only she knows. Huh, what is this? Don't? So that's what happened. Saying that, Mu Zihan seemed to have discovered something, stood up excitedly, laughed and said: "This is really dark under the lamp, it turns out that it is so simple, I haven't found it yet." ”
At this moment, it happened that a woman about forty years old walked in from the door of the room, followed by two uniformed criminal policemen.
