Brave World

Just as An Yizhi guessed, the deceased this time was indeed an addict. Although I don’t know where he got so much morphine, it doesn’t matter.

The important thing is that in this way, An Yizhi can’t confirm whether he was numbed by medicine before his death, or whether he was too high because of the drug and was taken advantage of by the murderer.

There is a very big difference between the two. If the murderer did it, there is no need for him to disguise the scene as suicide, because there are many traces of struggle left on the scene, which can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye. Someone had been in the same room with the dead and had disputes. And if it’s the latter, the traces of fighting left behind can’t explain the problem, and it’s also possible that the deceased’s own drug use caused the hallucinations to cause such results.

Although according to this line of thinking, the deceased may really have committed suicide by taking drugs, but An Yizhi prefers this to be a premeditated and carefully disguised homicide.

But then there is another unavoidable question, why? What is the purpose of the murderer in disguising all this?

To remove some psychological perversions purely for pleasure, usually the secret room murder is to create an alibi, or simply to remove suspicion.

But now they don’t even have a suspect, and no one will notice if the murderer kills the dead and closes the door.

Or, all of this is to blame others?

It is very possible!

An Yizhi has these in his mind. Since the murderer wants to do this, then first ask the guy who is being blamed.

“I remember there was a man with the deceased, did you find him?”

The first officer next to the captain is holding a thick booklet, which is probably the guest’s In the register, he said:

“You must be referring to Mr. McFlynn. His name and the deceased in the two incidents have landed together. We have sent someone to search for it. I believe we will find it soon. “

An Yizhi nodded, after all, the incident happened on a cruise ship that was sailing, unless it jumped into the sea, otherwise it was impossible to leave the ship, and the rainstorm was outside, even for people who are confident about their water There is no guarantee that you can swim back to land in the sea of ​​rainstorm.

Waiting for the result, An Yizhi inspected the entire room in detail, not looking at the traces of fighting. It is strange that the circular window is open. You must know that Under rainstorm, it shouldn’t be this kind of weather. Someone opens the window for ventilation. In fact, there is a large pool of water stains under the window, which is probably caused by the rain.

Write this clue in the notebook, and An Yizhi focused on the other parts.

Assuming all this is a homicide, then the murderer must be very familiar with the deceased, at least it is the relationship between the acquaintance, otherwise it is unlikely to enter the room. This has been confirmed with the captain. There are only two keys to the first-class guest room. One was given to the guests, and the other was kept by the ship’s staff and placed in the captain’s room. There is only one key to the captain’s room, which is on the captain, so the murderer impossible directly uses the spare key to unlock and enter the deceased’s room.

So it seems that the murderer is the guy who hasn’t been found yet, but as I said just now, An Yizhi guesses that someone has blamed him on him. Whether he is innocent or not, it’s most important to find him first. .

An Yizhi lowered his head and touched the traces on the floor. This long scratch was caused by the chair thrown. You can see obvious dents and dragging traces. In addition, you can see When the carpet was twisted and piled up, knocked over the cup on the coffee table by the way.

He simulated the situation in his mind.

The deceased heard a knock on the door and opened the door to find someone he knew, so he invited him in. Then he was attacked from behind by the murderer. It is estimated that the deceased was sitting on a chair at the time. Will leave drag marks on the wooden floor. The struggle caused the carpets to pile up. Then the murderer used medicine or directly strangled the deceased, and then arranged some sort of mechanism to make the deceased look like suicide.

This is almost the process.

An Yizhi found a burnt mark on the sole of the deceased’s shoe, which should have been attacked while the deceased was smoking, and the cigarette butt happened to be stepped on by the deceased.

He turned the room twice and found the two half-burned cigarettes under the bed, probably kicked in when the murderer moved the dead. One was squashed, and the other remained intact.

This is a bit strange.

Once the cigarette is ignited, it will not go out by itself unless it is burned out. Most of the cigarette butt is not burned out, and the appearance is relatively intact. If there is no external influence, it will burn out directly instead of like this Most of them are left.

“Qingfeng, are there any traces of frostbite on the deceased?”

“Frostbite?”

Qingfeng Bazukahearing this for a moment, then look carefully Look at the hand of the deceased holding the gun:

“One point, on the left side of the palm, the position of the tiger’s mouth under the thumb”

“Well…so that’s how it is “

“What did you find?”

Tu Hongyu asked.

“I found it a bit, it’s not easy to say now”

He perfunctorily asked Tu Hongyu and asked the captain:

“Mr. Captain, can you tell me what you conceal What? When the First Stage incident happened…”

The captain frowned and sighed helplessly:

“Yes”

The crew said:

“You go out first, I need to talk to Mr. An”

It seems that this matter is not very glorious.

When the crew went away, the captain opened the mouth and said:

“There is nothing to hide. I guess the gunman who attacked me before was an old friend of mine”

>

“An old friend? An enemy, right?”

Tu Hongyu complained.

“Is it true”

The captain gave a wry smile and said:

“Before entering the civil aviation field, I used to serve in the navy. At that time, I had a Good friends, we served in the same battleship, and we retired together, and finally joined the current shipping company. Later, I used some methods that were not just and honorable in selecting the captain. I exposed him to the leadership. The evil deeds during the service”

“What evil?”

“The indiscriminate killing of innocents, the deliberate killing of innocent civilians of other countries”

This is indeed It’s evil, enough to go to a military court.

“Later because of this incident, he was forced to leave the shipping company, and our relationship was completely broken. It was about 20 years ago. I heard that he married a mafia daughter. I’m not quite clear about the others.”

“So you suspect that the old friend came back to seek revenge from you?”

Captain nodded, it is the default of Tu Hongyu.

An Yizhi heard this flash of light, and asked the captain:

“What is his surname after entering the family?”

“Uh…it seems to be called Na Elson? Sorry, I can’t remember it for too long, but I clearly remember that his wife is the daughter of a powerful mafia. For a while, I was especially worried that he would use the mafia to retaliate.”

“Nelson…Okay, Mr. Captain, I have to say that you are wrong in your suspicion. Anyway, your former good friend is impossible to appear on the boat and shoot you”

“Why?”

“Because he died, about a month ago, he died of suicide”

I wonder if you still remember? An Yizhi The young man they were looking for was called Mallory Nelson.

–‐‐——–‐——

The captain was shocked. He always thought that the person who shot him was his former friend.

“Do you have any other goals, I mean the enemy who might shoot you”

The captain shook his head:

“Since with friends After the break, I suddenly realized that position and strength are far less important to your friend than a sincere heart, so I have maintained a good relationship with you for the next 20 years, and I have not made enemies with anyone”

hear As the captain said, An Yizhi thought about it a little bit:

“Mr. Captain, I think even if this incident is not counted, the last one was also a murder. The murderer used you as a shield to deliberately set up a maze to kill The victim of the first incident”

After a change of thinking, An Yizhi had a countermeasure:

“Mr. Captain, who knows about you?”

>

“Not many, except for my wife, only the second officer knows, because the second officer was also there when I reported to the senior management”

“Is it possible that it is your wife or the second officer Did the deputy reveal it to others?”

The captain shook his head. He didn’t know this.

Assuming that only two people except the captain knew about this, and the captain’s wife was in his hometown, the second mate was most suspicious.

“Are you suspicious of the second mate?”

Seeing An Yizhi’s thoughts, the captain said:

“He is a good man, I can hardly imagine him Will be the initiator of all this”

“A good person does not mean that he will not commit a crime. I need more clues. What was the second officer doing during your speech before?”

Captain After thinking about it:

“He should be on the bridge with the first mate at the time”

“Should? Is there any evidence? Forget this later, I can’t beat the grass to scare the snake”

On the contrary, just ask the sailor who was on the bridge at that time to find out. Asking now is likely to make the second officer suspicious.

“Captain, Mr. An Yizhi”

Said Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived, the second officer who focused on the topic knocked on the door at this time:

“We found Mike Mr. Flynn”

An Yizhi nodded to the captain, who knowingly said:

“Come in, Mr. An Yizhi wants to ask him, he may be an important suspect”

p>

The second officer and two sailors helped this drunk fellow into the room. He was one of the three people who had sat next to them in An Yizhi, and the only survivor of the three, that 30 Men of the ages.

It’s just that he is completely drunk now, and he can’t even walk in a difficult way. Can he really set up agencies to create secret rooms to kill? It is estimated that the murderer who wanted to blame him didn’t expect this guy to be a drunk.

McFlynn was still half-squinted when he was squeezed into the room, and he didn’t know what he was talking about. In this state, let alone asking, it would be good for him to know where he was.

“Where did you find him?”

Pinching his nose, try not to smell the alcohol from him, An Yizhi asked.

“In the warehouse, when we found him, he was secretly drinking wine from the boat”

Drinking wine secretly? As for?

Anyway, you are also a first-class guest, so you can’t even afford a drink, right?

With this little doubt, An Yizhi got a large glass of water from a water bottle not far away and poured it on McFlynn’s face…
