Chapter 222: Brown Powder (1st Update)
Zhao Shaohua listened to this, couldn't help but shudder, approached Xu Jing and frowned: "Nonsense, if it's a ghost killing, do you still need to tie people up?!" β
The woman in pink suddenly said angrily: "Yes, we don't believe it either, my mother said that it was deliberately spread by other flower buildings to smear us, so my mother didn't allow us to talk about it outside." β
Xu Jing thought for a while and asked, "When Dali Temple came to investigate the case, did you say anything?" β
The woman in pink was a little embarrassed: "When Dali Temple investigated the case, we were not there, and I don't know what they found, but I have heard that the people from Dali Temple passed by outside our Guixiang Building on the morning of the inquiry, and they have seen any suspicious characters." β
Xu Jing nodded and said, "You just said that He Langjun has always had a private room here with you, does it mean that he will go to the same room every time he comes?" β
This question is much easier to answer, the woman in pink nodded, and said: "Yes, because He Langjun came on a very fixed day, his mother would always leave that room for him that day, however, a few years ago, when he was on vacation in the National Prison, He Langjun rarely came over, and he didn't come again until five days ago. β
Friend?
Could it be the deceased in the first two cases?
Xu Jing and the three of them suddenly secretly exchanged a look.
Before this, Xu Jing was still thinking about whether the murderer killed simply to satisfy his desire to kill, or whether he killed with a purpose.
The former's case is similar to Zheng Shouyan's case and the Smile Killer case, although the murderer has a certain rule when selecting the victim, the deceased actually has nothing to do with the murderer, he just kills because of the fantasy or killing intention in his heart.
In the latter case, the murderer usually kills for a certain purpose, and the selected victim is also specific, and there are two common types of this situation: vendetta and love killing.
In the latter case, there is usually some kind of connection between the deceased, and as long as the reason for the murderer's murder is found, the case is basically half solved.
Xu Jing asked again: "I don't know which room He Langjun often goes to?" β
"The third room on the right hand side of the first hallway on the left side of the third floor." Although the woman in pink answered Xu Jing's question, her eyes couldn't help but change a little, "Why did the lady ask in such detail?" β
If it's just a noble lady who satisfies her curiosity, there's no need to ask so carefully.
Xu Jing saw that she was suspicious, so she could only swallow back the other questions, and said with a smile: "This is the first time that a murder case has happened around me, I'm just a little curious, please give us a pot of tea and some of your signature snacks here." β
As they spoke, the table arrived, and the three of them sat down.
Seeing that Xu Jing didn't ask any more, the woman in pink secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thought about it, and whispered: "Please don't go to the room where the case occurred, although we have resumed business now, the room is still sealed, and the officials of Dali Temple will come over at any time." β
Xu Jing raised her eyebrows and responded.
But if you don't go, how can it be.
After the woman in pink left, Zhao Jingming immediately said: "I didn't expect these three deceased people to be friends!" , let's go to that room and have a look! β
"Don't worry, we just asked too many questions, which obviously aroused their suspicions."
Xu Jing gestured with her eyes that although she had gone away, she was still peeking at their pink-clothed woman, and said with a faint smile: "It's rare to come here, it's not bad to drink tea and watch the performance first, but Zhao Liulang shouldn't be less here." β
βοΌοΌοΌβ
Heβhe's not going to come to a place like this!
Zhao Shaohua put his cheek on his cheek with one hand and said funny: "Xiaoliu doesn't dare to come to these places, if you let the eldest uncle and eldest aunt know, you can break his leg." β
Indulging in wine, no matter what era it is, it is spurned, and generally the big families with rules will not come to this kind of place casually.
Zhao Shaohua suddenly thought of something, looked at Xu Jing and said: "Ah Jing rest assured, Yanci will never come here, it should be said that Yanci has nothing to do with the word "woman" at all, since his mother ......"
After a pause, she stopped talking and smiled: "You and Yan Ci were husband and wife before, you must know about that matter, anyway, Yan Ci is a reliable and good man." β
Xu Jing: "......"
She really didn't know what it was.
But she couldn't ask directly, not to mention whether it would expose her and Xiao Yi's fake remarriage, and she didn't know whether Xiao Yi was willing to let her know such a private thing.
A few people sat and chatted for a while, and seeing that the woman in pink seemed to be completely relieved and no longer peeked at them, Xu Jing said: "It's time, it will inevitably be suspicious for us to leave together, I suggest that Shaohua stay, and Zhao Liulang and I will go to that room to check." β
Although Zhao Jingming was not very relieved, he had only stayed for so long, and he also knew that the hall here was indeed safe, not to mention that Sister Ah Xi was not a casual bully, so he nodded in response.
The two then went up to find a friend under the pretext of going straight to the room where the murder took place on the third floor.
Although the door of that room was closed, it was not locked, Xu Jing and Zhao Jingming pushed the door and walked in when no one was around, just like the woman in pink said, this room has obviously not been used for several days, and it is neatly cleaned up, and it is not popular.
The traces of the day of the crime have long been cleaned up.
As soon as Zhao Jingming saw Xu Jing enter, he went straight to the only window in the room, and hurriedly followed: "Xu Niangzi suspects that the murderer escaped through the window?" β
"Yes."
After Xu Jing opened the window, she found that there was an alley outside the window, and no one passed by in the middle of the day, let alone at night.
Zhao Jingming also glanced at it and said, "This window is indeed very suitable for escaping, but how did the murderer get in when He Anming's servant and guards have been guarding outside?" Could it be that it is also through this window? β
"Probably not, this is the third floor, if you just go down, it won't be difficult with the help of some tools, such as tying a rope to the beam of the roof and slowly climbing down."
Xu Jing raised his head as he spoke, pointed to the beam above, and said, "However, it is impossible to climb up without the help of any tools with bare hands, and it is impossible for the murderer to tie a rope in advance and put it down, so I think the murderer did not come in through the window." β
Zhao Jingming was stunned, "That ......"
"Don't forget, He Anming uses the same room every time he comes, as long as the murderer asks in advance when He Anming will come, and then hides in this room in advance, the cabinet and the bottom of the bed are all places where people can hide."
Xu Jing said lightly: "The murderer can't find a chance to do it in Guozi Prison, so he can only choose another place, but He Anming has not come to Guixiang Courtyard because of the first two cases, and the third case will be separated from the second case for almost two months." β
The murderer had been hiding in the room!
How much perseverance and determination does it take to hide in the room for a few hours, just to kill!
Zhao Jingming couldn't help frowning.
After Xu Jing finished speaking, she continued to search around the room.
It's just that this room has been tidied up, and there are useful clues, and Dali Temple must have taken it.
Xu Jing finally searched the bedside, and after a careful search, she lifted the futon.
Under the futon was an ordinary bed board, which was nothing special at a glance, but Xu Jing suddenly found some brown powder from the gap in the bed board.
She stared, took out her handkerchief and swept the powder onto it, and was about to put it to her nose to smell it, when suddenly there was a steady and powerful footstep outside the room, and the footsteps came straight towards their room, and there was more than one person coming.
Zhao Jingming's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
Grandma's, someone is coming at this time!
So suddenly, it is impossible for him and to hide!
