I asked the masseuse girl sharply, do you know who Jiang Xiaoxiao's last target was and whether it was the truck driver who lived in 214?

Seeing this, the masseuse girl turned white with fright, and shook her head again and again: "I have said everything that should be said, and I really don't know the rest!" ”

"Then call out another of your accomplices and let him tell us! It's the guy who wore red last night and hid in the haystack to scare me! ”

Hearing me say this, the masseuse girl was so anxious that she was about to cry: "Brother, last night only the two of us pretended to be ghosts to scare you, and the guy in red you said didn't have it in our hotel at all!" ”

What the? No way, yesterday I saw the guy in red before I passed out! I questioned the old man again, but he said that he had never seen any guy in red, and that if I didn't believe me, I could have sent someone to search the entire inn.

Looking at the old man's appearance, it doesn't look like he's lying.

In other words, if he dares to say this, he may have beaten me up with an anti-mentality, betting that after I heard it, he would not send someone to search the entire hotel thoroughly.

I waved to Goofy, a brother who had been fighting since college, and this guy instantly understood my intentions.

He immediately gave orders to the police officers around him, and as soon as the words fell, the police officers on the side quickly began to get busy. In the meantime, I asked the old man to walk me and Goofy to the backyard of the inn.

Walking around from the main entrance, it doesn't take long to reach the backyard of the hotel. It's not so much the backyard of a hotel as it is a primeval forest.

The entire backyard was overgrown with weeds, and it looked like no one had taken care of it in a long time, especially a large patch of vines and plants that curled up the walls of the hotel, almost filling the entire high wall.

Because of the rain that had just fallen last night, the backyard was wet, and the waist-high plants were all covered with water droplets, and the soil under their feet was very soft.

I told them to stay where they were with the old man, and then quickly found the window where room 214 was.

Just look down at the window, and it's easy to find the haystack from last night, where the red-clad monster was hiding at the time!

I walked over cautiously and looked around, trying not to break the grass near the haystack.

The jade pendant that the old man gave me at that time happened to be embedded in the haystack, so I was sure that there must have been no mistake in the location of the investigation.

But to my strange findings, there was no sign of any broken weeds in the weeds near the jade pendant, which almost covered the calves, and there were no obvious footprints in the damp mound of dirt on the ground, except for the one I had left when I had entered.

At that time, it was raining heavily in the sky, which obviously aggravated the humidity of the soil. So, if the red-clad weirdo wants to walk into this haystack from the backyard and scare me, then he will definitely leave a mark when he goes out of here.

I asked the officers to search the area carefully, but there was still no sign of anyone entering. It's strange, is it really that I am hallucinating, the strange man in red I saw before I passed out last night is not actually real?

Thinking about it, I put away the jade pendant and let Lu Yuan take the old man back to the hotel.

The police officer in charge of searching the hotel also came with the news that there were still seven guests in the entire hotel, and after they investigated, they did not find any suspicious people, in other words, the clues of the strange man in red were broken again here.

After a while, I learned from the masseuse that for the convenience of committing the crime, she, the old man and Jiang Xiaoxiao lived directly in the hotel on weekdays, and they generally did not leave here easily if they were fine.

In other words, if the red-clad eccentric in my mouth was really their accomplice, I would surely find traces of the red-clad eccentric's life in the inn, and not find nothing like now.

I lowered my head and pondered for a while, and asked the old man to take me to the room where Jiang Xiaoxiao used to live, hoping that there would be something different to discover.

The old man was naturally very unhappy, and he didn't seem to be willing to let us investigate too much about Jiang Xiaoxiao. At this time, Lu Yuan gave full play to his ruffian nature in a timely manner, and coerced and enticed, so that the old man could only obediently comply.

Jiang Xiaoxiao's room is in the innermost room on the first floor, that is, room 114, which is directly below room 214 where I stayed last night. There was a large lock hanging on the door, and it was clear that it had not been in or out of the house for a long time.

The old man had the key to the room, but he began to push back again.

This time, I didn't need his help, so I just asked Lu Yuan to give me a paper clip, and I got the door lock in three or two clicks. In my memory, this is the second time I have picked the lock in front of a real policeman, but the last police officer who witnessed me do this, his fate does not seem to be very good.

There was a musty smell in the room, and I choked a little.

Although the room was simple, it was well organized, and there were many posters of celebrity singers on the surrounding walls, several of which even people like me could say in one breath.

The big bed in the middle is very warmly arranged, and the pink bed is full of the owner's girlish heart.

Judging from the layout of the room, Jiang Xiaoxiao should be a person who likes to tidy up, and the masseuse also told me that Jiang Xiaoxiao has a little obsessive-compulsive disorder and can't see things cluttered in front of her.

Indeed, at a cursory glance, the whole room is very neatly arranged, but strangely, only the bedding on the bed is really messy, and it can be said that it is deliberately disrupted.

Could it be that Jiang Xiaoxiao encountered some unexpected situation at that time, and went out before she had time to tidy up the bedding? Or was she killed before she could tidy up her bedding?

Lu Yuan and I expressed our doubts, and the guy listened to it and deeply agreed.

Rooms 214 and 114 happened to be on the upper and lower floors, so close to each other, it was hard to guarantee that Guo Fangzheng would not temporarily laugh at Jiang Xiao and kill her.

I went up and checked the entire bed, and found that there was something pressed under the futon. Lu Yuan reacted faster, took out the thing first, and took a closer look, and his old face turned red in an instant. The thing he was holding in his hand was a condom that had just been opened and had not yet had time to use!

"It depends on the situation, Jiang Xiaoxiao may have been doing that kind of thing before the accident?"

"It's not impossible!"

Later, I noticed that there were several deep scratches on the inside and outside of her futon.

The scratches were almost always three or four side by side, with some subtle pale green residue on them, and they were all concentrated in two of the areas of the futon.

I asked Lu Yuan to call someone from the forensics department, and with the help of professional equipment, I extracted chemical components such as nitrocellulose and oil-dissolving pigments from the scratches.

Lu Yuan asked me what these ingredients could be made of, and I thought about it for a long time but didn't come up with it, but a female police officer next to me suddenly said sharply.

"These things are the main ingredients of nail polish!"

Nail polish!

I hurriedly found a masseuse and asked her what color the nail polish Jiang Xiaoxiao usually wears.

The masseuse thought for a while and told me that Jiang Xiaoxiao's favorite things are hot for three minutes, such as nail polish, lipstick and so on, which are basically changed every half a month, but during that time, the nail polish that Jiang Xiaoxiao applied happened to be green.

According to her exact words, it seems to say, "If men can wear green hats, then why can't I wear green nail polish?" ”

I asked Lu Yuan to find a female police officer of the same height as Jiang Xiaoxiao to simulate the situation at that time, when the female police officer covered her head with the futon and kept struggling, her hands happened to be in the areas where the scratches on the futon were concentrated.

The situation gradually became clear, and the marks on the futon should be the scratches left on it by Jiang Xiaoxiao at that time.

At the time, she was supposed to be sleeping, and then someone suddenly broke into the house and forced her to "do business". Jiang Xiaoxiao should be reluctant, but under duress, she can only do so. Unexpectedly, as soon as she tore open the condom, she was forcibly covered to death by the uninvited guest with a quilt.

When Jiang Xiaoxiao completely stopped struggling, the suspect took her out of here, and then cut off her left hand and stuffed it into the box containing Murong Bai's corpse!
