Chapter 34: Contradictions
Entering through the door of the secret room, it is just the place where you normally enter the house.
The floor plan of their home is the same as the floor plan in the report book, it is very small, with one bedroom, one living room, one bathroom and one kitchen, plus a small balcony.
Most of the layouts can be seen just by standing at the door.
The living room has a coffee table and an old sofa, and these two pieces of furniture alone occupy half of the living room's space, and half of the remaining space is piled up with various debris, leaving only a passageway.
Zhang Yichi put the things in his hand on the coffee table.
There are a few cups of water on the coffee table, as well as unwashed dishes and chopsticks, and leftovers.
This reminded him that Number One had said to him in a similar tone of complaint that Number Three would connive at his brother to make a mess of the house every time, and he would not deal with it himself. Every time, No. 1 has to wake up and deal with it, but he still has a job to do, so he doesn't have a particularly good impression of No. 3.
He flipped through the cabinet under the coffee table, and there were unimportant bits and pieces in it. There are no important things placed on the sofa, and there is nothing worth noting about the clutter placed around.
After a cursory inspection of the living room, Zhang Yichi didn't find any abnormal problems, and walked into the bedroom.
The bedroom has a double bed, as well as a wardrobe, a desk.
The quilt on the bed hadn't been made yet, as if someone had just slept with it. There is a notebook on the desk, which is supposed to be the number one work notebook.
The layout of the bedroom is also very simple, with only a few large pieces of furniture and some miscellaneous items.
Zhang Yichi checked the cabinet and wardrobe of the desk, but found nothing abnormal.
Then he left the bedroom and turned to the other side of the living room.
On the other side of the living room, the bathroom is crammed into the kitchen, and behind them is a long, narrow balcony that facilitates ventilation.
Zhang Yichi first looked at the bathroom on the far right, there was nothing abnormal in the bathroom, and then he went into the kitchen, the kitchen was generally what it looked like after cooking, and the pot was not washed.
He opened the refrigerator, and there was a bucket of juice half left, which should be the one mentioned by Number Three, and he suspected that it had been drugged.
Finally, Zhang Yichi went to the balcony.
The balcony was a mess with the marks of a fight, as Number One had said, and the window was also open, and it was true that it was only a third of the way open. And the position is high, so it's not easy to jump out. What's more, according to No. 1, his brother is so low that he can barely reach a stool without stepping on it, and there is no stool at the scene.
He looked down through the window, and there was a pool of blood on the ground about a few dozen meters away from the window.
At this height, it is estimated that you will be directly shattered if you fall.
It took about ten minutes for Zhang Yichi to check the palm-sized home, and there was nothing abnormal.
The murderer killed his younger brother obviously premeditated, so he definitely won't leave obvious evidence, which Zhang Yichi had expected, he was not too disappointed, returned to the door, opened the door, and rushed to the number one who was sitting inside: "Come in." ”
No. 1 sat there very depressed, and when he saw Zhang Yichi calling him, he got up and walked over: "Finished checking?" Any clues? ”
"Nope." Zhang Yichi made room for No. 1 and let him walk in, "The murderer is not stupid, everything that should be hidden is hidden." ”
"Do you have any new ideas after watching the scene?" Number One asked.
"Not yet, you'll have to let me pick it up." Zhang Yichi sat on the sofa, took out a tissue, lined the dishes and moved these things that were not cleaned up after eating last night to the side, and then opened the notebook and thought.
One is ready to sit down as well.
Zhang Yichi suddenly raised his head and said, "Are you thirsty?" ”
"Thirsty? …… No, what's wrong? ”
"I'm a little thirsty, can you help me get some drinks?" It's best if you have juice. Zhang Yichi launched a new round of testing to No. 1.
"Aren't we here that our bodies are going to stay the same way and don't need to ingest anything?" Number One asked.
"Then you can't drink if you're not thirsty?" Zhang Yichi asked rhetorically.
There was a slight change in No. 1's face, and he walked to the kitchen: "There just happened to be juice, I'll go get it." ”
Soon, No. 1 came with the half bucket of juice and found a cup to fill Zhang Yichi.
"Won't you have a drink?" Zhang Yichi observed No. 1.
"No, I don't usually drink this kind of thing." Number one is all right.
"Okay." Zhang Yichi picked up the cup and took a big sip.
While he was looking up and drinking the juice, he was still observing One.
Number One just looked at it flatly.
Zhang Yichi put down the cup, got up and went to the bathroom to spit the juice in his mouth into the toilet: "It's expired, it tastes weird." ”
"I don't know." Road 1.
Sitting back on the sofa, Zhang Yichi picked up the notebook and looked at it again.
This time I tried to test No. 1, and I didn't gain anything.
Zhang Yichi looked at the information in his notebook for a while, and got up again: "Don't you and your brother usually sleep tied?" What about the rope? Why didn't you see it? ”
"Here." No. 1 followed Zhang Yichi into the bedroom, then opened the wardrobe and took out the rope from the depths of the wardrobe.
"Put it so deep?" Zhang Yichi took the rope very suspiciously.
"Ah...... Be. ”
There is nothing special about this rope, it is a normal thin rope, this kind of thin rope is tied with a dead knot, it is not easy to untie, and it is impossible to break it with brute force.
"Do you usually put it there?" Zhang Yichi asked.
"Hmm."
"When you woke up today, you found that your brother was not tied to you, and then in a hurry, would you care about putting the rope back in such a deep position?" Zhang Yichi felt that it was very wrong for No. 1 to do this.
No. 1 was still very bland: "You probably misunderstood something, did I say that I woke up and put the rope in the cabinet?" ”
"What do you mean?"
"When I woke up, there was no rope in the bed." "The reason why I took it out of the cabinet was because the rope usually was there, not because I woke up yesterday and stuffed it back in." ”
Zhang Yichi felt interesting: "So, at that point in time, it can only be No. 3." ”
"What do you think?" No. 1 was very cautious this time, and did not take the initiative to say any speculation, but let Zhang Yichi say it himself.
"If what you're saying is true, it's that Number Three hasn't touched the rope since he came home, and the rope has been there all along." Zhang Yichi said this speculation himself.
In fact, this one is more convincing.
Number Three said that he had tied himself to his brother, but his brother's intelligence could not untie the rope. He also said that his younger brother should have committed suicide, and there are too many unreasonable points.
"I'm sure I'm telling the truth, and judging by the location, it should be the location I put back when I woke up the morning before. In other words, since I woke up the day before yesterday and put the rope back, the rope should have never been moved. "Road No. 1.
"Three is lying?"
