329 Killing organs
Han Daring broke off with a snort, shocking everyone present.
I saw him pointing to a person present and claiming that he was the murderer, not only did he kill Lu Zhengxiong, but even Lynch, who died in the underground storage room, was killed by the poison plan he set up in advance!
The person Han Dada'er refers to is Xu Lingfeng, an antique appraisal expert, the auctioneer and treasure connoisseur of Durand Auction House!
Xu Lingfeng didn't jump out to refute it immediately like the murderer who was exposed in other cases, but he just stood under the stage, looked at Han Daring on the stage coldly, and didn't say a word.
At this time Burroughs Durand said:
"How is this possible? Mr. Han, you...... You must be mistaken! ”
Bertrand also jumped out and shouted:
"Don't listen to this Chinese, after the lights were turned on just now, he ran out of the auction hall, I think he is the murderer!"
Jean-Pierre and the foreigner sitting next to him also said:
"No one is allowed to bring weapons on the auction, did the auctioneer have a sharp weapon hidden on him?"
Xu Lingfeng walked to the front of the stage, raised his hands, and motioned for someone to check him to see if there were any hidden weapons.
Then someone chimed in:
"That's right, that's right! In the entire auction hall, only the waist knife is considered a weapon, I checked it just now, there is no blood on the knife, isn't there blood on the knife in the vase! Didn't you already decide that Xie An was the murderer just now! ”
Some people even argued for Xu Lingfeng:
"This auctioneer, who is too far away from the waist knife, and can't reach the vase where the knife is hidden, how can he bypass everyone to deal with the tools of the crime? Unless he can fly! ”
"Yes, yes! No way, no way! ”
"It can't be done at all, it can't be him, it should be Xie An!"
Everyone was talking about it, Xie An, who had been handcuffed and wilted, heard Han Daring say that Xu Lingfeng was the murderer, and suddenly felt that he saw hope, and his spirit was lifted, and he quickly stood up and shouted:
"Han Tou'er is right, I'm not a murderer! I'm not a murderer! ”
He can call Han Daring called Han Tou'er, which shows that Xie An has heard of Han Daring's name, and he also knows that he is a detective, he can speak for himself, and he really has a way to live!
But in the auction hall, every word you say to me, the voices of people are noisy, Xie An's voice alone can't suppress these people at all, and his two sentences of defense have long been drowned in the noise!
In the crowd, although Wang Weihan knew Han Daring and had heard a lot of rumors about him, after all, the Jinmen detective had only heard of it, but he had never seen it with his own eyes, so he was also skeptical of what Han Daring said, and he came in disguise, which was inconvenient for attracting attention, so he could only listen silently on the side and did not express any opinions.
Yan Zhiyi, Zhang Xi, Gao Jinghui, and Lao Cai have already seen Han Daring's ability to reason and solve the case in the Red Fort Bloody Case, so they naturally believe his remarks.
Mei Ruohong didn't need to say anything, but just waited on the side to listen to Han Da'er's next reasoning.
Yan Zhiyi was still surprised by the discovery that Han Daring had asked him to get closer to observe the black jade statue just now.
Zhang Xi saw that the teacher didn't say a word and he only listened to it on the side, Lao Cai is the deacon of the western-style building, he is a mature old housekeeper, he knows the rules very well, and his job is to serve the guests, so he still stands aside without saying a word.
Gao Jinghui was the only one in the crowd who expressed his support for Han Da'er's point of view.
Burroughs then said:
"Mr. Han, it's not that I don't trust you, but you did leave just now, and you weren't present from beginning to end, after the incident, in fact, in order to make sure that no one brought sharp weapons into the venue, I asked the security guards to politely check everyone, including us auction staff, of course!
Among them, the first to check was me and the auctioneer Xu Lingfeng, but none of them had any sharp weapons on them! ”
Han Daring raised his hand to suppress the words, telling everyone to be quiet, and then said:
"Sometimes you don't need a blade at all to kill and decapitate! Lu Zhengxiong's head was not cut off by a sword at all! ”
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar, only Xu Lingfengyi stared at Han Da'er with a cold face and without saying a word.
Han Daring said:
"Actually, in the basement just now, I have already explained to this Inspector General Polpo and Mr. Burroughs that the bloody long knife found in the vase is not the murder weapon that killed Lu Zhengxiong!
Lu Zhengxiong was hit by a preset killing mechanism, so he was separated and died! ”
"Organs? What organs? ”
Without waiting for Burroughs to ask, Porpo asked first.
Han Daring said:
"I checked the auction hall and the code-door storage room at the back, as well as the office and equipment storage room, and I actually found something!"
Burroughs asked:
"What did you find?"
Han Daring did not answer Burroughs's question, but asked the crowd instead:
"I don't know if you have a feeling, although the area of this renovated auction hall is not very large, it gives people a strong sense of depth, as if it looks like the auction hall is far larger than the actual area!"
Everyone in the audience discussed for a while, and everyone felt the same way.
Han Daring said:
"In fact, the reason is here, when the auction hall was renovated for the second time, the ceiling that was originally parallel to the ground was changed to the wall from the door to the back of the auction table, not only gradually inclined but also a semi-dome with an upper arc, the height of the ceiling and the ground at the entrance is six and a half meters, and the arc gradually extends to the back wall of the auction table, the actual straight wall is only less than two meters six, and the part above the two meters six is the curved ceiling, due to the strong light and visual errors, the wall and ceiling at the back of the auction table are not clear. Therefore, people will mistakenly think that the ceiling at the entrance is the same as the ceiling and the ground behind the auction table, but in fact, everyone is like being in a dome. ”
At this time, everyone looked up and took a closer look, and sure enough, they found that it was the same as what Han Daring said!
At this time, there is humanity:
"If you don't say it, no one will notice!"
Burroughs Road:
"This is to highlight the width of the hall, which is why it was deliberately designed this way!"
Han Daring said:
"This auction hall was rebuilt from the Earth Hall, not so much to highlight the spaciousness, but to kill a specific target!
Mr. Burroughs, I also checked with you just now, the reason why this auction hall is so renovated is actually Xu Lingfeng's opinion, right! ”
Burroughs nodded.
Han Daring said again:
"When this auction hall was rebuilt, in order not to make it difficult for people to notice the tilt and arc effect of the ceiling, the white paint on the walls and ceiling, although it was white, was slightly different, and ordinary people might not be able to detect it, but with Xu Lingfeng's special treasure appreciation all-round skills, he would not be unable to see the color difference!
As long as the entrance and the back of the auction table, and the walls and ceilings on both sides are slightly different in color, although it is difficult to distinguish them, under the lighting of the auction hall, it can create some visual illusions, making people feel that the height of the house behind the auction table is not so low. ”
Han Daring pointed to the chairs made by the guests in the audience and said:
"Why is it that the guest chairs, arranged in these rows, look so cramped, but the auction table is so large that the distance from the front of the stage to the end of the stage can almost be used for rehearsing a play? The main work on the auction table is actually concentrated in a small part of the front of the stage, which can completely narrow the depth of the auction table, because no one will stand so far at the end of the stage!
Because this can be ignored, the distance between the ceiling and the ground at the end of the stage is more than three meters shorter!
In addition, the knight's armor standing in the center behind the auction table looks exactly the same as the knight's armor standing in front of the light curtain wall outside the door, but in fact, this armor is much smaller than the outside! ”
Han Daring walked to the armor at the end of the stage as he spoke, he stood next to the armor, but the armor was obviously half a head shorter than Han Daring'er! The armor outside the auction hall was more than half a head taller than Han Daring'er. Although this armor can barely be put on by a small person, it is obviously much lower than the armor outside the hall!
He pointed to the lamp on the ceiling and said:
"This, combined with the brightness of these tube lights, makes it appear very dark above the tube lights. In fact, the length of the sling of the tube lamp is not the same, the sling at the door is very long, and the tube lamp sling gradually becomes shorter inward, so that it seems that the tube lights are all on the same plane, but in fact, the ceiling in the shadow is sloping above the tube lamp......"
"Talking about all this, it's all about the architectural layout of this auction hall, what does this have to do with the murder!"
Bertrand frowned and shouted, staring at Han Da'er with his eyes like he was looking at an enemy.
Han Daring said:
"I'm talking about this because the decoration design of this auction hall is the key to the killing mechanism!"
As he spoke, he walked to the table, looked at the auction table at his feet and said:
"This auction table is more than half a meter high, which also makes up for the lack of killing mechanism!"
"What's lacking?"
Polpo asked.
Han Daring didn't answer, but said:
"The killing mechanism in the auction hall is actually set up specifically to kill Lu Zhengxiong, even if other people stand on the stage, they may not be killed by the agency, Lu Zhengxiong will die because he is different from ordinary people's height!"
Han Daring is tall herself, but compared to Lu Zhengxiong, she is still a little shorter. In addition to Lu Zhengxiong's unusually tall figure, he is also more generous, if he really uses the letter waist knife to cut his head, even if the waist knife is abnormally sharp, it also needs extremely strong arm strength to cut off Lu Zhengxiong's axle-like neck with one knife.
Although everyone knew that Lu Zhengxiong was tall, they didn't understand what Han Daring meant, and some of them were about to ask, but they heard Han Daring say:
"I just checked the three rooms behind the auction hall and found that the storage room, office, and equipment storage room with the code door are the same as the auction room, and they all use tube lights, and they are a line!
The line passes through the iron pipes buried in the corners of the wall and connects to several other rooms. It was precisely because of the low position of the wiring iron pipes in the storage room, which is only separated by a wall from the auction hall, that I noticed that the three rooms, including the storage room and office, were different from the roof height at the back of the auction hall.
Later, I looked outside the auction hall. A wall of light behind the knight's armor composed of tube lights. I noticed that one of the tube lights in the middle of the light curtain wall had been broken, as if it had been broken by something. And I found that the wires of the light curtain wall are also connected in series with the auction hall, and the pipes are distributed at the highest point directly above the light curtain wall.
However, it was the iron pipes for wiring and the thin steel wires in the storage room tied with sculptures under white cloth that made me think about how I could set up a slingshot string killing mechanism in the auction room! ”
"A slingshot string killing machine?"
Except for Xu Lingfeng, almost everyone asked in unison......
