Mystery Hunter - Chapter 174

[Chapter 174 The mystery of the secret room]

“Chaos?” Yuan Jun didn’t know what Jiang He meant by this, and said, “Don’t give up. How did the murderer leave? Just tell me.”

Jiang He nodded and looked at the Ge family in the distance. Looking in the direction, he said: “I think everyone should have noticed that Ge Dongyun’s bedroom is very messy. But Ge Dongyun himself is not an untidy person. Last time we visited Ge Dongyun’s bedroom, it was very clean inside.”

” No. Wrong.” Yuan Jun said, “That’s right.”

Jiang He stretched out his index finger, “So this is the premise. Under this premise, if we look at Ge Dongyun’s bedroom today, we will find that Ge Dongyun’s bedroom is a little too messy.

” If it wasn’t for Ge Dongyun, then the murderer did it.” Yuan Jun said.

“That’s right, the murderer did it.” Jiang He looked at Yuan Jun with no expression on his face: “And the murderer did it on purpose. I checked the room carefully, and I also saw Ge Dongyun’s body. Ge Dongyun basically didn’t have time to struggle. , was stabbed into the heart by the murderer, and died within a minute.”

“And the bed and the desk are far away, even if Ge Dongyun struggled in this minute, he would not put the desk on the desk. All his belongings were on the ground, and the chair was slumped aside. If Ge Dongyun struggled to walk to the door, then Ge Dongyun’s bloody footprints would definitely be left.”

Jiang He calmly expressed his opinion: “So from the probability , Ge Dongyun can’t create such an environment. If it’s not Ge Dongyun, then it’s the murderer. But why did the murderer do this? There are two possibilities, the murderer is looking for something, and the murderer is trying to cover up something.”

“It makes sense, continue.” Shao Lao nodded seriously.

Jiang He continued: “If I was looking for something, then the things in the drawer must have been turned over. But when I opened the drawer, I found that the things in the drawer were neatly arranged, and the clothes in the closet were the same. The murderer just dropped something from the desk on the ground.”

“So after this point is ruled out, I have 80% confidence that the murderer is deliberately covering up something.” Jiang He said.

Yuan Jun scratched his head. While Jiang He was speaking, he was also thinking about it, but after thinking about it, he couldn’t think of what the murderer was trying to cover up.

“So what was the killer trying to cover up?” he asked.

Jiang He replied, “A plastic water cup filled with water.”

“Actually, when I saw the water cup by the bed, I felt something was wrong.” Jiang He recalled the scene when he just saw the water cup in Ge Dongyun’s bedroom, He opened his mouth and said, “The position of the water cup fell on the side of Ge Dongyun’s bed next to the window. Whether it is the bedside table or the desk, it is far away from this place.”

“In order to cover up the important role of the water cup, the murderer put the Books, pencil boxes, and even chairs are all swayed, trying to deceive our investigation.”

Yuan Jun didn’t recall the water cup at all, he didn’t notice these small details at all, he asked: “Water cup, what do you mean? Did the murderer use the water glass to escape?”

Jiang He nodded.

“The kind of water cup we drink from?” Yuan Jun asked again unwillingly.

“Yes.” Jiang He said.

“How can the water cup help the murderer escape?” Yuan Jun asked again.

Jiang He put his right thumb on his index finger, making a crescent shape and said, “I carefully observed the lock on Ge Dongyun’s bedroom window. It is a crescent lock like this. When the lock handle is facing up, the lock is open. .”

Saying that, Jiang He grabbed the index finger of his right hand with his left hand, pulled it down, and said, “And when the lock handle is facing down, the window is locked. But in fact, it is not necessary for someone to pull this. The lock handle, and the lock handle does not need to be completely perpendicular to the ground, according to my observation, the angle between the lock and the ground is within 20 degrees, and it will be locked.” While

speaking, Jiang He seemed to be the murderer, he simulated :

“By coincidence or deliberate planning, the murderer sneaked into Ge Dongyun’s bedroom. He stabbed Ge Dongyun’s heart with a Western-style kitchen knife. The murderer must be familiar with this kind of knife, and it should be someone who has used it for a long time. After that , the murderer chose to leave from the window, and designed a plot of murder in a secret room.”

“Before leaving, the murderer scattered all kinds of things on the desk on the ground to prepare for a short escape. First of all, the murderer left a room for himself. After leaving the space, pull the crescent lock to the center parallel to the ground, and then hang the water-filled cup with the lanyard on the lock handle.”

“Then, she quickly climbed out of the window from this space and pulled it up. Window.” Jiang He continued to gesture with his hand: “After that, there will be no murderer. Under the action of gravity, a water glass filled with water will inevitably cause a downward force on the lock handle. And this downward force will Instead of manpower, pull the lock handle down.”

“At the same time as the lock handle was pulled down under the action of gravitational potential energy, the water cup also slipped from the lock handle and fell to the ground.” Jiang He put down his hand and said: “And at this time, the window was locked. This is why the lock handle has an angle with the ground. If it is artificial, I have a 60% certainty that the lock handle will be pulled to the bottom.”

Jiang He had basically finished describing the whole process of committing the crime: “After that, he climbed down from the edge of the window. Based on my physical ability, it only took about three minutes.”

After listening to Jiang He’s narration, Shao Lao fell into deep thought. After a while, He opened his mouth and said, “This person must be very familiar with the Ge family. Whether it is the time to climb down from the window on the second floor or lock the window with a glass of water, this is not something that an outsider can formulate and implement.”

“I only mean the glass of water. Shao Lao said: “If there is less water, then gravity is not enough to pull the lock handle down. When the police intervene, the water glass is likely to still hang on it. If there is too much water, it will be in an instant. Flip the lock handle down so the killer doesn’t have time to get out of the window.”

Shao Lao nodded himself: “Yes, that’s it. From the murderer’s death, and then from the murderer’s leisurely use of the window to escape, if there is no comprehensive plan, and there is no long-term observation of the Ge family or even the Longling community, the murderer will escape. If you don’t leave, you won’t be able to escape the surveillance.”

“This murderer must be a frequent visitor to the Ge family.” Elder Shao was firm.

“An acquaintance of the Ge family?” Yuan Jun asked, “Could it be that the murderer knew Ge Dongyun beforehand?”

Old Shao said while pacing, “The murderer is likely to kill under the guise of the person who left the note. Now the major mainstream media are also speculating like this. Killing people in such a chaotic season can indeed confuse the police, especially after the murderer took the initiative to find a reporter, which makes the police incapable of doing anything.”

“The murderer is… “Old Shao didn’t say the name he guessed when he heard a voice from behind.

“Sorry officer, my son Dong Ai’s access card has been lost.” It was Mother Ge who spoke.

The few people turned their heads to look, and found that Mother Ge was holding Ge Dongai’s hand standing behind them, and Ge Dongai twitched, looking very aggrieved.

“So I still need an access card.” Mother Ge said in a low voice.

“Dong Ai’s access card lost?” Shao Lao looked at Ge Dong Ai, who was still wiping away tears.

Mother Ge was a little embarrassed: “Yes, I just went home and was about to open the door, so I asked Dong Ai to take his access card, but Dong Ai searched in his schoolbag for a long time and couldn’t find it. Only then did I know that Dong Ai took his own access card. I lost the access card.” With

that, Mother Ge looked at Dong Ai and said angrily, “You can’t do anything well.”

Hearing her mother’s criticism, Dong Ai burst into tears. Like a waterfall, it can’t stop.

Shao Lao squatted down, hugged Dong Ai, and said kindly to Dong Ai like a grandfather: “Don’t cry, tell grandpa, do you know when you lost your access card? ”

While crying, Dong Ai said in a childish voice: “I don’t know, I usually put it in my schoolbag, but when I get back, it’s gone. I didn’t lose it, ooh~”

“It wasn’t you who lost it. Could it be that you have long legs and ran away?” Mother Ge couldn’t help scolding again.

Dong Ai burst into tears, no matter how hard she tried to coax her.

“Maybe someone stole it.” Shao Lao rubbed Dong Ai’s head and said, “After all, a child’s access card is much easier to steal than other people’s access cards.”

“Steal?” Ge’s mother felt a little weird . .

Shao Lao nodded and said: “The access control system has a simple record. At 8:18, someone used the access control card to open the door of your house. After that, a murder happened.”

“That is to say, the murderer is now And the access card of our house, he can come back to our house at any time right?” Mother Ge suddenly felt extremely terrified and said tremblingly.

Shao Lao said: “Yes…”

But at this moment, Shao Lao suddenly thought of something, he said, “No, this matter is so noisy, so many eyes are staring at your house, even if it is given to the murderer. Twenty courageous, he would not dare to come. Don’t worry, and there are our people in the dark to protect you.”

“When your husband comes back, we will ask him according to the procedures and let him come back to accompany you. After that, You can move out.” With that, Shao passed the access card to Mother Ge.

Veteran Shao put down Ge Dong’ai and nodded at Mother Ge: “We’ll send your husband directly to the police station in a while, and then he’ll be back, don’t worry.”

“Okay.” Mother Ge nodded.

Looking at the back of Ge’s mother leaving, several people were thoughtful.

“Where are we going at this time?” Yuan Jun asked.

Shao Lao looked at Yuan Jun and said with a smile, “The time is just right now, I’ll take you to eat.”

“It’s good to eat.” Yuan Jun licked his lips.
