Chapter Twenty-Seven: Loopholes

The footage flows again, and the bald man in the video begins to tell again.

"Stop, rewind 9 minutes and 20 seconds, and put it back again." Lou Yue stared at the video screen, and a keen light flashed in his eyes.

Ah Qi rewinded the video again, only to hear Jin Biao telling the story of how he threw the body.

"In the middle of the night on April 26, I drove my car to throw the body. Fortunately, there was no one at the time, and I was not found, so I went back after throwing the body."

"Is there anything wrong with this one?" Sister Mu noticed Lou Yue's expression and asked seriously.

"Between 9 minutes and 23 seconds and 24 seconds, didn't you notice anything strange?" Lou Yue turned her head to look at Sister Mu.

"Strange place?" Sister Mu frowned, motioned to Ah Qi to cut the video to that point in time, and carefully observed the picture.

Jin Biao's expression on the picture was the same as always, and there seemed to be nothing abnormal.

"Stop!" Suddenly, Sister Mu seemed to have discovered something, and hurriedly instructed Ah Qi. "The background area in the upper right corner behind Jin Biao is enlarged, and the replay starts at 9 minutes and 23 seconds."

Aqi operates the device to enlarge the area in the upper right corner of the video to full screen; At the same time, the resolution is adjusted and brightened, and the dim background of the original picture is immediately clear. After making these preparations, Ah Qi pressed the replay button.

The video plays again, and this time, even Aqi senses the problem.

"That black dot on the background wall...... Seems to have jumped? As he spoke, Ah Qi operated the equipment non-stop in his hands, focusing and magnifying the black spot on the wall. Is that...... Snail? ”

I saw that the black dot on the wall was a snail moving slowly, but the strange thing was that the snail that was still crawling below at 9 minutes and 23 seconds jumped up a distance as if it were moving instantaneously after only 1 second.

"It's ...... Traces of the video being edited! Aqi blurted out. One of the videos was cut out, which is why there was this 'instant jump'! ”

Lou Yue nodded lightly. "This video is not complete, and I am afraid that someone deliberately deleted some important information."

"Could it be that Jin Biao cut it himself? He may have done some post-editing after recording the video. Aqi came up with a hypothesis.

"If you really want post-editing, the messy adjustment shots at the beginning should be cut out." Sister Mu said, "And the editing method in the middle is very clever, and there is almost no trace of editing, it should be done by a master." If it weren't for the flaws in the background of the snail, I'm afraid even I would have been fooled. This level of editing is impossible for Jin Biao to do. ”

"Looking at it this way, there should be someone else who cut the video...... So who is this person and why is he doing it? Aqi held her chin and said to herself.

For this kind of confession video, Jin Biao has no reason to deliberately find someone to edit it, and he does not dare to let a third party know about his assistance in killing people and throwing corpses, so this video should have been edited by others without Jin Biao's knowledge. Judging from this line of thought, it is bound not to be Jin Biao himself who sent this edited video to the police. Sister Mu analyzed.

"Not me!?" Ah Qi was surprised, "Who did that exactly?" ”

"Hehe, Chen Yan, Jin Biao, Li Li, and Wu Xuebing involved in this case are all dead and have no proof, everything seems to have been calculated, and the clues we get every time are cut off in a timely manner, who else do you say can do this kind of thing?" Sister Mu smiled self-deprecatingly.

"It's 'devouring'." Lou Yue gave the answer, but the corners of his mouth faintly hooked a sneer. "However, being smart was mistaken by being smart, and this time they made a wrong move."

"You mean, we still have a trail to follow?" Aqi asked.

"That's right. The clue is the part of the video that was deliberately cut. Lou Yue turned around and looked at the two people behind him. Have you noticed that Jin Biao's confession video is missing an important piece of information? ”

"Since it is a confession, it is necessary to explain the time, motive and means of committing the crime...... By the way, there is also the location of the crime! Ah Qi reacted instantly, "Jin Biao's video only vaguely mentions that the body was thrown into the sea, but does not mention the specific location, there is no reason why he can't say such an important piece of information!" ”

Lou Yue nodded approvingly. "And judging from the context before and after the editing, the cut part should be the statement of the location of the dumping of the body."

"Then why did 'Devouring' deliberately cut out part of the place where the corpse was dumped?"

"I'm afraid there's something wrong with that, I'm afraid we'll find out." Sister Mu and Lou Yue exchanged glances and smiled understandingly. "The breakthrough in this case should be in the part of the video that was cut."

----------------

Ye Yu opened the door of the dormitory, threw things away and fell on the bed, and the whole person lay into a "big" shape.

Finally discharged!

Ye Yu, who "regained his freedom", was in a much smoother mood. Of course, what makes him even more comfortable is that he no longer has to worry about falling into any "virtual reality" trap.

Before being discharged from the hospital, Lou Yue arranged a series of tests for him, which proved his previous speculation. Now Ye Yu's physique is immune to the intervention of "virtual reality", no matter what scene he puts it in, his body can quickly expel this intervention.

Thank you, Mom and Dad! Thank you, ancestors!

Ye Yu secretly congratulated his physique in his heart, but then there was a sense of melancholy in his heart.

He was homesick.

Since he was caught in these incidents, Ye Yu has not dared to go home once, and usually only reports his safety to his parents by phone, but his parents have come to the dormitory several times because they are worried about him and brought him some daily necessities.

After he was attacked this time, in order not to worry his parents, Ye Yu deliberately concealed the fact that he was hospitalized from them, and only said that he was on a business trip. And every time he thinks of this, Ye Yu feels extremely sad in his heart, who doesn't want to have a family member to accompany him when he is sick?

But Ye Yu really couldn't bear to see the distressed expression of his parents after knowing the truth, maybe this kind of white lie is the best way to deal with it.

I wonder if they're okay? Ye Yu was a little worried.

Although parents always say that they are all right on the phone, who knows if they are also afraid that they are worried, and tell "white lies"?

The more Ye Yu thought about it, the more uneasy he felt, and he sat up from the bed suddenly, feeling a little anxious in his heart.

He looked up at the time, and the clock pointed to five o'clock in the afternoon.

At this point in time, mom should be cooking, right? If I go home now, I should be able to have dinner with my parents. Ye Yu thought.

Ye Yu's gaze fell on the metal bracelet on his left wrist again. This is what Lou Yue gave him before he was discharged from the hospital, since the bracelet was destroyed last time, the bureau seems to have upgraded it, greatly improving its performance and resistance to destruction, and if it encounters violent damage, it will automatically notify the rescue, which is undoubtedly a powerful protective measure.

With this thing, there should be more or less security guaranteed, right? Ye Yu thought.

Besides, I will no longer fall into "virtual reality", not to mention that my parents' house is also in the downtown area, as long as I avoid walking alone to a remote place, it will be difficult for that hidden villain to take advantage of it.

Thinking like this, the thought of going home in Ye Yu's heart grew like a weed.

Do you want to talk to Lou Yue? No, he wouldn't agree to it 90 percent and would definitely say let me not go for safety reasons......

Ye Yu hesitated again and again, but in the end, homesickness prevailed, so he put aside his worries, took out his mobile phone and dialed home, and informed him that he was going home for dinner today.

The voice of his parents on the phone seemed to be a little surprised, and they repeatedly asked Ye Yu to come back early, saying that they would cook his favorite dishes for him. Ye Yu held the phone, and a warmth flowed in his heart.

After making the call, Ye Yu took a shower, changed his clothes, and cleaned himself up. After finishing it, Ye Yu looked at the mirror for a long time. Although the man in the mirror is a little thin, he is in good spirits, and he can't see that he has lived in the hospital and looks haggard, so he is relieved.

After the preparations were completed, Ye Yu picked up his backpack and went out non-stop.

----------------

"Can you confirm that?" Sister Mu looked at the screen and asked Ah Xiu.

Ah Xiu nodded silently, his fingers flew, and after a while, an interface similar to the background of the mailbox appeared on the screen, and there was only one email in the entire mailbox lying quietly in the "Sent" column, and the title of the email reads - "Confession Video - Jin Biao".

"This is the email address used for that anonymous email, and I found that the IP address that applied for this email address at that time was the IP of Jin Biao's residence, and the password of this email address was the same as the password of Jin Biao's other network accounts, so it can be basically confirmed that this email address was applied for by Jin Biao himself at that time." Ah Xiu explained to Sister Mu.

"If this email address was indeed specially applied for by Jin Biao at that time in order to deter Chen Yan, then theoretically speaking, there should be a real original confession video email set up by him himself, instead of the edited video sent later." Sister Mu cupped her elbows and calmly speculated. "As far as I guess, Jin Biao originally set up a regular email to be sent, but deleted it immediately after Chen Yan's death, and later 'Eat' used this mailbox to send the next email."

"Judging from the current situation, the original version of the previous version should have been deleted."

"Can it be restored?"

"If there is indeed this email, I am confident that I can find it, wait a minute."

As he spoke, Ah Xiu quickly began to type the code again, and the expression on his face swept away the laziness of the past, revealing a rare serious look.

"I found it, and sure enough, there was one." There was a hint of excitement in Ah Xiu's tone, and at the same time, he called up a document from the screen and showed it to Sister Mu.

I saw that the title of this originally deleted document had the same text as another email - "Confession Video - Jin Biao".
