Chapter Thirty-Eight: Waiting
"Do you have any new ideas?" Number One asked.
Zhang Yichi has been sitting on the sofa and thinking for a long time, and in No. 1's opinion, he suddenly spoke, presumably with a new insight.
"Uh......" Zhang Yichi didn't know what to say.
In fact, the current situation is very unoptimistic, No. 1 and No. 3 have their own suspicions, and no one has yet appeared overwhelmingly unfavorable evidence, which is enough to make Zhang Yichi sure that he is the murderer.
And the confession is almost remembered, and the scene was searched all over the place.
In the next twenty hours, it was almost impossible to have any new clues to help Zhang Yichi find a breakthrough. It is very likely that he can only grasp the current information, and it is not realistic to figure out the reason for himself from this information.
I can only find a way to use this evidence to collide with No. 1 and No. 3 and collide with new clues.
But how to hit it, you need to think carefully.
can survive until now, Zhang Yichi can't guess, which means that the murderer who is hidden in the end is very smart. And although they joined forces to commit the crime, the role of No. 2 was very small, and he should not have been used at all, which shows that No. 2 may also be being used by another murderer.
This is definitely a role to be reckoned with.
Zhang Yichi's evidence is limited, and there are not many opportunities for him to test and collide, so he needs to seize the opportunity. If the last murderer had avoided this round of 'attacks', the truth might never have been revealed.
It's 4:40 a.m., and there are still more than three hours left on the 1st.
Zhang Yichi planned to conduct a round of testing of No. 1, so that No. 1 drank the barrel of juice to test whether the barrel of juice was poisonous and whether No. 3 was lying.
"I'm asking you a few questions, but I still hope to give me a satisfactory answer." Zhang Yichi felt a little mentally exhausted, "After asking these questions, you can drink this juice." ”
"If this juice is really drugged, I guess I'll have to sleep through it, and then you can only decide on your own." Number One smiled wryly and looked at the half-barrel of juice.
"If you are innocent, we are grasshoppers on a rope, and I will do my best to keep us all alive." Zhang Yichi said.
Number One picked up the juice and poured himself a full glass: "Thank you." Say, what's the problem. ”
"I'm very suspicious of No. 3 now, based on the confession you gave and the evidence I found, I just had the process of deducing the whole case in my head." Zhang Yichi launched a tentative search, "However, there are still a few doubts in this process, I hope you and I will think about what the problem is." ”
"Okay." Number One relaxed a lot.
Zhang Yichi first told No. 1 about the process of killing his younger brother by No. 2 and No. 3 with loopholes: "In this case, in fact, there is no need for two personalities to join forces, No. 3 alone is enough, why did he pull No. 2 to do it together?" ”
"I think ......," One is thinking very seriously about this question, "either Three is using Two, or Two is doing more than just doing something in the juice through the window, and there are hidden clues in this case, and these clues are related to Two." ”
"I thought the same way, but it beged a new question, why did No. 3 use No. 2. If there are any hidden clues in this house, where else will they ......," Zhang Yichi said.
Number One said apologetically, "I don't know." ”
"There are still some problems." Zhang Yichi knew that he couldn't ask anymore here, so he replaced the next one, "What do you think the second and third used to make the younger brother jump off the balcony by stepping on the stool?" ”
"Coercion?" Road 1.
“…… Possibly. Zhang Yichi didn't have a better idea, and coercion and coercion did seem feasible.
No. 1 looked at Zhang Yichi and was thinking about the problem in a daze: "Is there any more problem?" ”
"Ah......" Zhang Yichi came back to his senses and picked up the new mobile phone, "Isn't this mobile phone really yours?" ”
"I have." No. 1 showed his phone, "I'm usually frugal, and I won't buy a new one if my phone can be used improvised." ”
"Do you three share a cell phone?"
"Yes, they will be used together. After all, although everyone has their own wake-up time, the social circle belongs to us as a whole and needs to be maintained by us as a whole, so it is convenient to use a mobile phone. Number One explained.
Zhang Yichi unlocked the new mobile phone and flipped through it casually: "I think this mobile phone may be related to your brother's jumping off the building." ”
"How?"
"There's no logic, it's just intuition." Zhang Yichi looked at his phone, "Now each question has a corresponding clue, but why did my younger brother jump down by himself and didn't find a corresponding point with this mobile phone, maybe these two clues themselves are connected, but I don't know how they are connected." ”
"A mobile phone to let my brother jump off the balcony by himself? I don't think it's possible. "One thinks it's absurd for these two clues to be forcibly linked.
"I don't know." Zhang Yichi sighed and put his phone on the table, "You drink." ”
Number One took the glass full of juice: "I hope drinking it can give you some clues, which can prove my innocence." ”
He tilted his head and drank the juice down.
"Tell me what's going on." Zhang Yichi looked at No. 1, waiting for his body to change.
"Hmm." No. 1 seems to be a psychological suggestion after drinking, so his face is not very good-looking.
After about five minutes, Number One felt a sense of exhaustion hit me: "I've really been drugged, I'm feeling sleepy right now, and I want to sleep." ”
"Hold on, don't sleep." Zhang Yichi said.
After that, every minute, the fatigue was rising sharply, No. 1 could no longer lift his eyelids, he closed his eyes, felt dizzy, and could only vaguely hear Zhang Yichi saying something to him.
About another five minutes later, Number One collapsed on the couch.
Zhang Yichi flattened No. 1 and called him a few more times, but No. 1 closed his eyes tightly and did not react.
It doesn't look like it's pretended.
And No. 1 has no motive to pretend, if he insists on not sleeping, and doesn't let Zhang Yichi see the omission, then it will be more beneficial to him, because that can prove that there is no medicine in the juice, and No. 3 is lying.
Since he couldn't wake up, Zhang Yichi didn't keep screaming, but tried to wake up No. 1 every half an hour.
About two hours after No. 1 fell asleep, that is, at about seven o'clock, Zhang Yichi called him, he finally woke up, but his brain was still a little groggy.
I went to rinse my face with cold water, and No. 1 was almost sober.
"This juice is really drugged." Number One sat on the sofa and said, "But why didn't they give me a drink after they were drugged?" ”
"They can give themselves a drink and pretend to be a victim." No. 1 still spoke from the perspective of an innocent person, and Zhang Yichi also followed his words, assuming that No. 1 was an innocent person and made a guess.
"What's next for you?" Number One asked.
"Wait." Zhang Yichi said word by word, "Wait for No. 3 to wake up." ”
