Even though the investigation of the case had only just begun, from Feng bujues perspective, he had already deduced the general plot of this John Herbert murder.
The dead man was most likely an a.s.sa.s.sin hired by Sam. The two agreed on a time and cooperated with each other to carry out the a.s.sa.s.sination.
Last night (because it was already past midnight, the incident should be counted as yesterday) at 11 O clock sharp, Sam called the landline at the scene of the crime as planned. His purpose was to lead John to a specific place at a specific time so that the killer could launch a sneak attack.
However, to Sams surprise John, who had been suddenly attacked from behind, actually managed to kill the killer while struggling. In this way The ident.i.ty of the dead and the murderer had been swapped.
Since things had come to this, Sam could only play along and rush to the scene of the crime with the excuse of hearing something wrong on the phone.
In fact If he wanted to play the role of an innocent person, he had to react like an innocent person. If he didnt come, it would seem strange.
Moreover, Sam couldnt tell what was happening on the other end of the phone just by the sound. In the end He only heard the low moans of the two men as they panted and fought. Who knew what was going on behind the noise
Therefore, Sam had to come. He had to at least come and see how the situation was before he could make an appropriate response.
When Sam saw the body of the killer, he was relieved.
if this man was captured alive, sams crime of hiring a killer would definitely be exposed.
fortunately the dead could not testify.
at 2:30 a. m., the investigation of the scene was still in order, and the onlookers outside the manor began to disperse.
most of the onlookers were like this although they didnt need to buy tickets, it was boring to stand for a long time. everyone gathered together to gossip for a while and then went back to their own business.
however, at this time, another unusual thing happened
chief, i have someone here who wants to see you. these words were conveyed through the walkie-talkie by a police officer standing guard outside the manor.
Who is it? When dawst, who was busy giving orders, heard this, he immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and responded in an impatient tone.
He said that his name is Zuo Yan. He also said that he has important information regarding the case and that he had to tell you in person. The police officer replied.
Ha? Daxter pondered for a few seconds.Alright Find someone to bring him in and wait for me in the guest room on the second floor.
This conversation did not happen in front of Feng bujue, so he had no power to interfere.
Therefore, ten minutes later, in the guest room on the second floor, brother Jue and Zuo Yan Ran into each other again.
The room that was not too far away from the crime scene had been temporarily used by the police as a temporary home to collect testimonies. There were more than ten people, including John, Sam, and Feng bujue (most of them were staff members), and they were all being questioned by the police officers. Their first-hand testimonies would also be recorded there.
Eh? What a coincidence. When brother Jue saw Zuo Yan, he was quite surprised, but he did not show it. On the contrary Half a second later, he reacted as if nothing had happened.
Er Zuo Yan hesitated for a moment before he said,brother Jue? He seemed to have just remembered her name.Why are you here?
Actually, Zuo Yan wasnt spending time thinking about whats the name of this person in front of me, or how should I address him. Instead, he was thinking about whats the most appropriate way to respond to him greeting me like this.
Feng bujue instantly saw through that and came up with a series of deductions.
Zuo Yans reaction isnt slow, and his acting skills arent bad either. His current performance is enough to fool the eyes of most people.
But this Is definitely not something that can be done at the last minute. Its obvious This is one of his plans.
His thinking time also proves this point. With his ability, that one second of hesitation is not enough for him to complete the process of going from zero to one and creating something out of nothing, but it is enough for him to make a choice. He Or should I say He and Victor had undoubtedly known that I was here for a long time. They had also antic.i.p.ated several scenarios when they met me and had formulated a corresponding reaction to every greeting I could make. And what I was seeing now Was one of them.
Then If nothing unexpected happens
With that in mind, Feng bujue started to use his peripheral vision to search every corner and shadow in the room.
That fellow, victork Hes definitely already infiltrated this house. He might have entered and exited several times
This time, I no longer have the advantage I had in the bar, because hes already on guard against me Until now, I havent noticed his existence at all, which is a very good proof.
Moreover, since the left word has appeared in the light, it means that Victors work in the dark is basically complete. He mustve seen the crime scene and made a similar or even more advanced deduction like me
The rest Is Zuo Yans job, which is to talk to the people involved in the case, collect testimony, and evidence to confirm victorks deduction and then bring the murderer to justice.
These things Wont take too long
Were only halfway through, it wont do to let you solve the case so quickly
He pondered a lot in his heart, but in reality, only an instant had pa.s.sed.
The next second, Feng bujue continued Zuo Yans question.Ah Its a long story
After that, he explained the reason why he was there in very simple words. Of course, it was based on the beginning and logic of I met Sam at the bar. From zuoyans and victorks point of view, they couldnt find any flaws in this argument.
After the two of them chatted for a few minutes, dawist arrived.
When the sheriff walked to Zuo Yans side, he first sized him up from head to toe. Then, he thought that this kid seemed to know Feng, and naturally felt a little disgusted.
Hey, young man, I heard that you have important information about the case? The moment Daxter opened his mouth, his tone was very impolite.And you have to tell the sheriff himself ?
Um And you are? Zuo Yan had already found out from victork that this man was the sheriff, but he still had to pretend that he didnt know.
Im the sergeant. Tell me, what do you want to tell me? Daxter asked coldly. He paused and added,let me make this clear If this is a prank, or youre spouting nonsense to take a look at the crime scene, the police have the right to pursue your legal responsibility
He didnt finish his sentence because Zuo Yan had completely ignored him. He took out a phone from his pocket and dialed a number.
