Chapter 18: The Truth
Qin Bing's eyes lit up, "I know, after the man poured out a cup of water from the teapot, he used that cup of water to fill the second empty cup, and then filled the third cup with the second cup of water, and then drank the water in the cup."
In this way, it is possible to use just one cup of water to create the illusion of three used teacups. ”
Xu Shu smiled, "Why didn't that person do this instead of filling three cups in a teapot?" ”
Qin Bing said, "It's a matter of habit, because when she poured water, her subconscious had already told him that she could make such an illusion with just a glass of water.
However, this subconscious made her reveal a fatal flaw. ”
"Why would she make such an illusion?"
Jia Zhengming touched his chin and asked.
Xu Shu said, "Because there were only two people in the room at that time, but someone needs outsiders to think that there are three people in the room." ”
The audience was silent, and the sound of breathing came and went.
Gu Chun waved his hand again and again, "No, no." Cao Guangxiao, Miss Yan, Mr. Zuo, these are really three people.
Cao Guangxiao, Miss Yan, and Dongmei have all seen it, so it can't be fake. As for Mr. Zuo, Dongmei also saw him and Miss Yan coming together.
However, Dongmei didn't see his face clearly, could it be ...... Do you suspect that Mr. Zuo was not in the room at the time? ”
Xu Shu said, "Exactly." ”
As soon as these words came out, the audience was shocked.
Gu Chun sneered, "The words are shocking and sensational.
Miss Yan, Dongmei have seen it, and the suspect Liu Sui has also seen it. ”
Xu Shu said, "Dongmei and Liu Sui only saw the man in the top hat. ”
Gu Chun said, "What about Miss Yan?" He gave a description of Mr. Zuo's appearance. ”
Xu Shu said, "If Miss Yan is the murderer, can she describe Mr. Zuo as anyone?" ”
Gu Chun sneered, "You are using strong words. Why did Ms. Yan create the illusion that the three of them would meet? ”
Xu Shu took a puff of his cigarette, "Because...... Miss Yan needs this non-existent Mr. Zuo to act as a perfect criminal and clear her suspicions. ”
Jia Zhengming gasped, and his eyes finally changed when he looked at Yan Zi, "You said that Mr. Zuo doesn't exist, who is the top hat man that Dongmei saw?" ”
Xu Shu pointed to Cao Guangxiao on the big bed, "It's him." ”
Thunder exploded over everyone's heads at the same time.
Xu Shu said, "Everyone, isn't it too coincidental that Mr. Zuo came to Cao's Mansion at the same time?"
It just so happened that when Dongmei was looking for Pu'er tea in the storage room, Mr. Zuo came.
It just so happened that the storage room was in the corner, and it happened that the perspective was unique, so that Dongmei could just see Mr. Zuo coming, but she couldn't see Mr. Zuo's appearance clearly.
Who can make Dongmei be in a specific place at this specific time - the storage room? ”
"Cao Guangxiao, it can only be Cao Guangxiao."
Qin Bing continued his thoughts, "Also, when Dongmei delivered tea, it was also Cao Guangxiao who took the tea, and he didn't let Dongmei enter the master bedroom.
Because once Dongmei comes in, she will find that there is no Mr. Zuo in the house at all. ”
"Wait, Xu Shu, you said that Mr. Zuo is Cao Guangxiao, so why did Cao Guangxiao pretend to be Mr. Zuo and cooperate with Miss Yan to kill himself?"
Gu Chunhou's spine was cold.
Xu Shu said, "Colonel Cao didn't know that Miss Yan had murderous intentions towards him, and as for his agreement to pretend to be Mr. Zuo, it was because he also needed the illusion of this three-person party."
Don't forget Mrs. Cao, she doesn't seem to be a good match. If she knew that Cao Guangxiao and Miss Yan were alone in a room late at night, it would be a big trouble. ”
Jia Zhengming nodded slowly, "Since Colonel Cao Guang is afraid of Mrs. Cao, why did he choose to be in the Cao Mansion and Miss Yan...... Ahem......"
Xu Shu said, "Choosing Cao Mansion must be Miss Yan's idea. ”
Gu Chun asked, "Then why did Cao Guangxiao agree?" ”
Xu Shu said, "Miss Yan has her own way to convince, besides, Cao Guangxiao's diary also records that he has special habits, and the more dangerous the place, the more exciting it is to do it." ”
Qin Bing took a sip.
"Then why did Miss Yan choose to commit a crime in Cao Mansion?"
Gu Chun's heart was cold, although he felt that Xu Shu was too mysterious, but the more he thought about it, the more reasonable he felt.
"It is not important to choose where to commit the crime, what is important is the place where the crime was committed, and it is convenient to create the illusion of Mr. Zuo's existence. In addition, there is this. ”
Xu Shu pointed to the wall of blood.
Jia Zhengming said, "Do you suspect that the bloodstains were also caused by Miss Yan?" How? ”
Xu Shu said, "I have to ask Miss Yan, the key is not how to get it, but the purpose of Miss Yan's this?" ”
Duan Kuohai said, "I see. The characters on the wall were obtained by Miss Yan from Cao Guangxiao, but she did not know the meaning of these characters. I can't ask outsiders at all, and maybe there is a suspicion of showing my feet.
It's better to set up a suspicious array, disguise the character as a clue to solve the case, let us help her solve the mystery, and ask for directions with a stone, no wonder you kid wants to drink the deputy chief engineer Zeng. ”
At one point, all the clues were solved.
Everyone looked at Xu Shu in surprise, as if there were eight big characters written on him: his eyes are like torches, and his eyes are like watching fire.
"Wait!"
Gu Chun said sharply, "Don't forget, Liu Sui also said that he saw the man in the top hat with his own eyes."
According to the point in time, Cao Guangxiao is dead, if he is a man in a top hat, who does Liu Sui see? ”
Xu Shu said, "It's very simple, Liu Sui lied. ”
Gu Chun snorted, "If you can't explain it, just say that people lie, it's really yours." ”
Xu Shu flicked the cigarette ash, "Don't Team Gu think that the timing of Liu Sui and Jiao Yong's arrest is too coincidental?" ”
Duan Kuohai nodded and said, "It's really a coincidence, I took Cao Xing to the scrapyard to confess that I was dirty, and I happened to bump into Liu Sui and Jiao Yong selling stolen goods there, as if they were waiting to be arrested there." ”
Jia Zhengming's eyes lit up, "Could it be that Liu Sui, Jiao Yong and Miss Yan are in the same group?" ”
Yan Zi wanted to cry, "Yan Zi is a weak female streamer, you can't solve the case, so you will plant false accusations on others, speaking of which, they are all hypothetical inferences, but there is a little evidence."
Vice President Jia, people want to find Deputy Director Bai and Speaker Li to call the shots. ”
Jia Zhengming panicked and looked at Xu Shu for help.
Xu Shu sneered, "Miss Yan, don't worry, inferences and assumptions can't help you."
I guess Miss Yan's identity must have been done extremely cleanly, and if she digs it up, she won't get anything. ”
Yan Zi mourned, her big bright eyes fluttered, and the corners of her eyes flashed with crystal teardrops.
Xu Shu continued, "Miss Yan, don't be complacent, your identity is seamless.
But the identities of Liu Sui and Jiao Yong, who do black work, are afraid that they are not so clean.
Miss Yan, what do you say? ”
Yan Zi changed his face in an instant, like a senior drama bone, and stared at Xu Shu coldly, "Who would have thought that a mere cup of overnight tea would allow you to make such a big article."
As the saying goes, if you don't live long, you will hurt if you are wise.
Are you so smart that you are not afraid of a short life? ”
As soon as these words came out, Gu Chun and Duan Kuohai's eyes lit up at the same time.
"It's on fire, it's on fire......"
Suddenly there was an exclamation from outside the window, and in a short time, thick smoke rose from the southwest of the courtyard.
Suddenly, there was chaos in the hall, and Duan Kuohai pounced on Yan Zi for the first time, but Yan Zi didn't move, as if he was ready to be captured.
At this moment, whoosh, whoosh, several cold lights flashed, and the sea was shot at Duan Kuohai.
But it was Liu Sui, Jiao Yong rushed into the hall, his hands raised continuously, and he spilled sharp darts.
"I just said that arranging someone to make a fake confession, it is enough to arrange a Liu Sui, why do you want to come, it turns out that there is still the role of a bodyguard."
Xu Shu pulled Qin Bing and was about to run away.
Qin Bing pushed Xu Shu away, and two apricot yellow talismans flew out of his cuffs, shooting Liu Sui and Jiao Yong.
Liu Sui quickly dodged and waved his hand to smash out several white envelopes.
The white packets exploded, and the rose-red dust spread everywhere, filling the hall, and the pungent smell filled the audience, and the view was completely cut off.
At the same time, the shouts of fire fighting outside the house resounded in all directions.
Xu Shu secretly said that this place was dangerous, and he couldn't stay for a long time, so he buried his head and rushed towards the master bedroom.
He had a good memory, and with his eyes closed, he rushed into the master bedroom and quickly got under the bed.
He lay against the wall, adjusted his breathing, and was secretly afraid that the risk of installing a fork was so great.
Time passed, the movement outside became smaller and smaller, and through the crack of the bed, you could see that all the dust in the air had fallen to the ground, spreading a thick layer of rose.
The sound of the firefighting outside had faded away, and through the crack in the bed a narrow window could be seen, and it was already dark.
Xu Shu moved his body and was about to slip out, when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps, and then, with a squeak, the door opened.
A pair of white sneakers came into view, with a size of thirty-eight.
Xu Shu held his breath.
The man seemed to be looking for something, rummaging around.
Finally, when he turned to the side of the bed, he was not afraid of Cao Guangxiao's corpse at all.
Suddenly, she crouched down.
The white sweatpants outline the full hip line, and the long legs are tight and straight.
Xu Shu held back the heat in his chest and covered his mouth and nose.
The man probed the moment, got up, and walked out.
Xu Shu breathed a sigh of relief and gently stroked his chest, and at this moment, a human face appeared by the window, beautiful and picturesque, and it was appropriate to laugh, who was not Yan Zi.
"Yan... Peaceful... Hello Miss......"
Xu Shu squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying.
Yan Zi, who changed into sportswear, had long hair tied up behind her head, as pure as a college student.
Her eyes were still bright and clear, and her eyes smiled like crooked crescents, "How am I?" ”
"Hello...... Beauty, I think this dress, more ...... More lining your temperament, unlimited youth, vitality is compelling. ”
Xu Shu's face was sincere.
"Flim, do you continue to lie inside, or come out?"
Yan Zi stood up and patted the dust all over her body.
"I'll just lie inside, you're busy, leave me alone."
Before the words fell, Xu Shu slipped out from under the bed with a grunt, and a scissor kick hooked towards Yan Zi's legs.
Yan Zi didn't move, took out a black and heavy pistol, and pointed it at Xu Shu.
Xu Shu's feet froze, his face turned pale, "If I say that there is a complete misunderstanding between us, do you believe it?" ”
"Faith."
In the next moment, Yan Zi pulled the trigger.
Zi, zi, two waterlines hit Xu Shu.
"Water gun!"
Xu Shu was furious, "What a dead girl, dare to ......"
The powerful cat was stronger than the tiger, and Xu Shu was about to be high-spirited, and the water stains that had been sprinkled on the ground burned without warning.
"Ouch!"
Xu Shu jumped away, tore down the curtains, extinguished the flames, and felt cold in his heart, only to see where the water stains were, and they were clearly oil stains.
He finally figured out why there was a sudden fire at that time, and the feeling of this Yan posture was a transcendent person in the way of the fire thief.
"Do you want to try again?"
Yan Zi stared at Xu Shu playfully.
Xu Shu waved his hand again and again, "Don't try, don't try, you are invincible, I have eyes and don't know the master."
Having said that, once born and twice cooked, we are also friends. ”
Yan Zi laughed angrily, "I have never seen a brazen person like you in my life, acting according to my orders, and daring to say a word, so that you can taste the taste of burning yourself." ”
Xu Shu hurriedly raised his hands high, "Don't be impulsive, give whatever you want." Actually, I'm also troublesome, Lao Cao is a scumbag, and the whole world celebrates when he dies......"
He tried his best to divert Yan Zi's attention.
Yan Zi gritted her teeth, "You still dare to make your mouth!" ”
She never thought that such an ingenious setting would be ruined on a pot of tea.
She hated to swallow this guy who had ruined her big things, but Xu Shu's wisdom made her see the huge benefits of taking it for her own use.
Otherwise, she would not risk her life and go and return.
"Ouch, my stomach hurts."
Xu Shu suddenly covered his stomach and ran towards the bathroom on the left.
There was a faucet there, and once it was close to the water source, Yan Zi's deterrence was not so great.
After running three meters, his pants immediately burst into flames.
Xu Shu quickly rushed into the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and the water fell sharply, and the flames were immediately extinguished.
There were only a few grease stains on his trouser legs, which were extinguished by the water, not enough to form a flowing flame.
He dared to fight this one, just to see Yan Zi start the fire, and he also needed the help of fire oil, and it was expected that her ability to control the fire was limited.
Seeing that Yan Zi didn't catch up, Xu Shu hurriedly got up and went straight to the windowsill.
With a bang, the bathroom door was kicked open, the water gun was fired, and Xu Shu's head and body were stained with fire oil.
Xu Shu rushed towards Yan Zi, Yan Zi hurriedly exited the bathroom, Xu Shu twisted the faucet again, and only a trickle of water remained.
"Dead girl turned off the water valve."
Xu Shu scolded secretly, made a decision immediately, and quickly undressed.
"Finally, you will be given a chance, whether it will fall or not."
Yan Zi shouted coldly.
Xu Shu didn't say a word, stripped naked, and slammed on the windowsill.
Yan Zi was furious and rushed into the bathroom, rubbing his jade hand lightly, about to start a fire, "Ah! ”
Xu Shu took off only a pair of pants, and his sturdy body was crowded with Yan Zi's eyes.
Yan Zi presided over the White Horse Study, ushered in the send-off, but he was a clean man, who had seen this, he was ashamed and indignant, he withdrew in a hurry, and when he gritted his teeth and rushed in, where was there still Xu Shu.
Yan Zi rushed to the window, Xu Shu had already climbed the ventilation pipe and went down to the lawn, he raised his face, waved at Yan Zi, and put on a toned posture, "Miss Yan, don't send it." ”
snapped, Yan Zi slapped the pane, and tears came out in pain.
