Chapter 301: Reasoning, Suicide Note
Dean is not a god.
His inferences are all based on the clues obtained and obtained after reasonable analysis.
Before that, he basically concluded that the principal was the murderer of the female teacher Totti, as for the reason, it was nothing more than doing something immoral, and then he was discovered by the righteous teacher Totti, ready to expose it, and finally killed tragically.
But there is no moving panel that tells Dean that this reasoning is wrong.
The murderer, not the principal!
Police cars soon arrived at the scene.
Perhaps because the murder was in the school, and the person who fell from the building was the principal of the only middle school in this town, two police cars and four police officers came directly.
There are not many police officers in the town, and the little policewoman Nellie and the sheriff I have seen before are among them.
"FK, what the hell is going on!"
When the sheriff saw the principal with his neck twisted, he couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.
The neck is twisted like this, and the person must be hanging.
In a short period of time, there were two murders in the originally peaceful town, and they were both school employees, which was undoubtedly big news for the town, and the impact was very bad.
As the sheriff of the town, he is under a lot of pressure!
At the sheriff's command, Nellie and another small policeman began to ask the onlookers who were the first witnesses, while the sheriff took an older officer upstairs to check on the scene.
Nellie, along with her colleagues, quickly learned what had happened.
According to the accounts of multiple witnesses, the principal committed suicide.
When the principal fell from the building, it was the time to prepare for class in the afternoon.
At this point in time, many students, faculty and staff were preparing to enter the teaching building, and the teaching building was only six floors, so some people noticed it before the principal jumped down.
The headmaster was standing on the edge of the wall at the top of the building, with his hands outstretched, and without waiting for the witnesses to exclaim, he jumped down, and with his head down and his feet up, causing him to die simply.
The corpses that can be preserved can be regarded as the other party's accumulation of virtue in their previous lives.
"The headmaster's death is so weird."
After recording the identities of several witnesses, Nellie couldn't help but mutter.
Detective Dean had just told him that the principal might have something to do with Mr. Totty's death, and when he knew that they were questioning Selika, he used an angry reaction to hide his fear, only to kill the principal in the afternoon.
Even a fool knows there's something wrong with this.
Nellie's colleague breathed a sigh of relief.
He saw that the students around him had been driven back to the teaching building by those teachers, so he whispered to Nei Li: "Fortunately, this time it is not a murder, otherwise Mr. Mayor will definitely put pressure on our police station in order to appease the emotions of those students' parents." ”
Their salaries and bonuses are provided by the town government.
Nellie's colleague doesn't care about dead people, he cares more about whether his income will be affected.
Hearing this, Nellie glanced at her colleague with disdain.
She chose to be a police officer to protect the place where she was born, not just for a salary like these old fritter colleagues.
At nearly 22 years old, she still believes in justice.
"Detective Dean would be my colleague."
Nellie thought with some regret.
Suddenly.
She thought that Dean and herself were divided into two ways, she was responsible for investigating the whereabouts of the principal and others, and Dean was responsible for guarding the principal, in this case, the other party should have also noticed the movement, just nearby, right?
Nellie quickly looked around, only to find that Dean was not far from her, with her hands on her chest, leaning against the weight-bearing pillar in the hallway, her head bowed, not knowing what she was thinking.
She hurriedly said hello to her colleague, and then ran to the pensive Dean: "Detective Dean." ”
Dean raised his head and said in a flat tone, "Nelly, what did the witnesses say?" ”
He only had the identity of a detective now, so he didn't come forward to inquire about the situation until Nellie and the others arrived.
"Suicide!"
Nellie looked solemn: "A few students saw that the principal jumped from the roof of the building by himself, and there was no one else around at that time, and the other party deliberately fell head-down, if it wasn't for the angle offset, we should have seen a corpse with a burst head now." ”
"Hell-bent on death."
Dean touched his chin.
In this case, the explanation makes sense.
Although he doesn't know what kind of story is between the principal, the girl Selica, and Teacher Totti, he probably knows what is going on!
Seeing Dean's abrupt expression, Nellie couldn't help but be curious: "Detective Dean, do you know something?" ”
Dean nodded:
"The person who commits suicide is either impulsive or the other person feels that there is no other way for him to go except death.
In the case of the principal, it is clearly the latter.
He is not very old, his income is not low, his social status is not bad, he is respected in the town, and on the bright side, he has a happy family, and he is the envy of many people.
Do you know under what circumstances this kind of person will have suicidal thoughts? ”
Nellie was a little uncertain, "Threat? Serica threatened him? ”
Dean shrugged noncommittally, "Tell me why." ”
She pursed her lips and followed Dean's example to do her own analysis:
"I used to think that the relationship between the principal and Selica was a little abnormal.
If you reason from this, then the death of Teacher Totti is also in the past, for example, she found out about the principal and Selica and is ready to report it.
This kind of thing will undoubtedly be devastating to the principal.
In order to maintain his current life, he took a risk and killed Mr. Totti, but the unlucky guy Tiger, just at that time, came to the vicinity of Mr. Totti's residence and wanted to peep, and finally what happened later. ”
After speaking.
Nellie looked at Dean expectantly, but found that the other party was looking at her in surprise, so she couldn't help but bow her head a little embarrassed, and whispered, "Detective Dean, did I say something wrong?" ”
Dean shook his head: "No, it's about the same as my reasoning, and I am amazed by your progress." ”
Hear compliments.
Nellie smirked: "I just think Detective Dean is very good, so I consciously imitate your way of thinking to reason." ”
"But it's already awesome."
Dean thought of Harry, who was a bunch of mud compared to Nellie, and Forensic Holtz forensics, who had a bit of a brain, had learned something from himself.
Perhaps encouraged by Dean's compliments.
Nellie continued:
"I think the principal's suicide is threatened by Serika!
The picture we took out scared her and the principal.
I once read a saying: the more you have, the more you fear losing.
The principal may have felt that as long as he died, the investigation would be over.
At least he can retain a good reputation, and he will still be a good principal in the eyes of students and residents, a good husband in the eyes of his wife, and a good father in the eyes of his children, rather than a criminal who slept with Selica and killed his colleagues.
So he committed suicide.
Let's focus on Serika next, then we will definitely be able to uncover the truth of this murder case and restore Tiger's innocence! ”
Dean nodded noncommittally, "I hope so." ”
Nellie, an immature little policewoman, has good understanding, but she has too little experience.
She overlooked one very important thing!
If Dean is not mistaken, the case of Tiger killing Mr. Totti, is over!
The principal, who committed suicide, will be the real murderer who killed the female teacher Totti!
After some reasoning, Nellie is too addicted to detectives like in detective novels.
Just as she was about to continue discussing with Dean about the next investigation against Selica, the sheriff's call interrupted her opportunity to speak.
On the sheriff's side, there seems to be an important discovery.
"Let's go."
Dean motioned for Nellie to get busy.
"Okay, when I'm done, I'll go to the hotel to find you."
Reluctantly, Nellie ran towards the administration building.
Looking at her back in the distance, Dean took a cigarette from his pocket and put it in his mouth, turned and walked off the campus.
He couldn't go back in vain.
In order to get the experience points he deserves, he needs to do some preparation in advance.
It's past eight o'clock in the evening.
The little policewoman Nellie came to Dean's room with an angry face.
After the meeting.
Before Dean could ask, she took the initiative to complain: "Detective Dean, you must not have guessed what the sheriff found on the principal's desk!" ”
Dean chuckled: "Suicide note, and it's a suicide note of confession!" ”
This sentence directly held back all of Nelly's next words.
She looked at Dean in a daze for a few seconds before she let out a breath of depression, collapsed on the bed weakly, and said, "Okay, it seems that I really don't have any talent for reasoning, I really can't understand, since the principal committed suicide to save his reputation, why did he leave a suicide note pleading guilty?" ”
Nellie had speculated that the principal had been dragged down by his reputation and feared that she and Dean would find out about him, so she chose to commit suicide.
But reality slapped her in the face.
Her reasoning was wrong.
Although the principal committed suicide, he left a suicide note that he surrendered.
The more Nellie thought about it, the more wrong it became.
She slammed to her feet and looked at Dean with her eyes intended, "Detective Dean, since you can guess that the principal left a suicide note, then you must know what the hell is going on, right?" ”
Dean nodded lightly: "You talk about the content of the suicide note first, and then I'll tell you,"
"Let me think about it." , Nellie recalled for a while, and then said slowly:
"The content is long.
Presumably, before the female teacher Totti was killed, she found out that the principal had embezzled school donations, public funds, subsidies and other funds, and threatened to report it.
Frightened, the principal goes to Mr. Totti's residence to keep it a secret, only to find Tiger sneaking around near Mr. Totti's house.
The last time Tiger's father complained about Mr. Totti, he heard that the reason why the other party complained about Mr. Totti was that he was worried that Tiger, an adolescent young man, would have some inappropriate fantasies about Mr. Totti.
So the principal changed his mind.
He avoided the attention of others, knocked on the door and entered the house, and after asking Teacher Totti if he did not leave evidence of his corruption, he took advantage of Teacher Totty's inattention and killed her directly, and then deliberately opened the door and hid, until he saw Tiger enter, he took pictures and left.
Originally, the principal was prepared that if the police did not find the suspect, then he would secretly provide a photo of Tiger entering the house to the police, but he didn't expect that without him doing anything, the police would directly treat Tiger as a murderer.
After the event.
When the principal saw what happened to the Tiger family, he felt a bad conscience and was tormented, and finally the idea of suicide and surrender arose.
Behind the suicide note, there is also a bunch of confessions from the principal.
In short, quite disgusting and hypocritical some confessions. ”
At the end, Nelly's eyes flashed with disgust.
In this country, the confession before death is very useful, and it is estimated that at the end of the matter, many residents who know that the principal is the murderer will think that the principal is not bad.
After all, although he killed the female teacher Totti, at least he repented of his crimes, and he was still concerned about his wife and children before he died, putting aside the fact that he was a murderer, this is a competent husband and father.
It's not good, there are still many people who have this kind of cognition.
Dean listened to Nellie's statement and nodded, "It's about the same as I guessed." ”
Nellie came back to her senses and asked, "I have already said the contents of the suicide note, can you tell me what went wrong with my previous reasoning?" ”
Dean shook his head: "Your reasoning is actually not wrong, just a little less cognitive. ”
He looked at Nellie and changed the subject, "You haven't killed anyone, have you?" ”
Hearing this, Nellie shook her head suspiciously: "No, but what does this have to do with my reasoning?" ”
"If you've ever killed someone, you'll know that it's the equivalent of opening a door!"
Dean lowered his head and lowered his tone:
"If the principal is really the murderer of Mr. Totti, then in the face of the threat of our investigation, he will definitely choose to kill Selica between suicide and killing another insider, Selika.
After all, Selica is dead, so our investigation will be interrupted, and the matter between him and Selica will be buried. ”
Again, that's the same sentence.
Between life and death, there is great terror.
In order to survive, many people would rather annihilate their humanity than choose the desperate path of suicide.
Only those who are completely desperate, or cowardly, will choose to commit suicide.
And if the principal is a murderer, the other party will definitely not be a coward.
Thinking of this, Nelly's previous reasoning also had loopholes.
Nellie was able to learn Dean's mindset very quickly, so she was naturally not stupid.
She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then looked up in disbelief: "Detective Dean, you mean that the person who killed Teacher Totti is actually Selika?" ”
Teacher Totti has a good reputation among students, so why would Serica do this?
Dean nodded slowly: "Yes, even if it's not Selika, it should be someone close to her, such as her father." ”
After leaving school, he went to Tiger's mother and inquired about the address and family situation of Selika's family.
Serica is a single parent with only one father who works as a lumberjack.
"Then I'll investigate Selica now!"
Nellie clenched her fists and was about to leave the room.
Dean didn't stop.
The principal's suicide note came out, and it was too late to do anything.
