Chapter 62 Restoration of the Scene
Lu Bai looked at the three large boxes against the wall, lowered his brows and thought for a moment, "Have these things always been here?"
The boss nodded and said, "Yes, it's just a decoration, I won't touch it."
Three large boxes were piled under the beams, covered with dust, and looked as if no one had touched them.
Lu Bai squatted down and observed carefully beside the wooden box.
This room is already very dusty, perhaps because it has not been cleaned for years, or perhaps because of the concrete floor. As soon as you walk in, you can smell a strong dusty smell.
Lu Bai stared at the shortest box for a long time, then turned on the flashlight on her cell phone.
Crouching down and looking from the side, she waved behind her and asked, "Is the dust here thinner than other places?"
Li Ziyu walked over, bent down slightly, and put her hand on the wound. After just one glance, she nodded, "It's thinner."
She gestured with her hands, "It looks a bit like a card."
Lu Bai stood with his hands folded, "Card... The witness said that the deceased was very short of money. If this card was at the scene at the time, could it be..."
She thought for a moment, "Bank card?"
Li Ziyu's eyebrows moved slightly, with a faint smile in his eyes, and his tone was lighter than before, "That makes sense."
She looked at the boss and asked, "Boss, have you ever seen a skinny man wearing glasses?"
The boss shook his head and quickly denied it, "No, the store has not been doing well recently and has not been open much."
Li Ziyu took a deep breath and stopped asking questions, but the scrutiny in her eyes was firmly fixed on her boss.
Lu Bai noticed her abnormality, and also knew that Li Ziyu felt that some things were not easy to say now.
She then quietly approached Li Ziyu, groped around and hooked her little finger onto Li Ziyu's hand.
[This boss would take a long time to think about trivial matters, but when asked about such details, he would answer quickly.]
[I don't know if Lu Bai can figure it out. I'll find a chance to tell her.]
Lu Bai: You can’t necessarily tell by looking, but you can tell by hearing.
[The most difficult problem now is that up to now, there is no way to confirm the identity of the man with glasses. It seems that everyone has a very weak impression of him. ]
[Is this intentional on everyone's part, or is it really a case of people's memories being blurred? ]
Lu Bai frowned tightly. If there was only one murderer, it would be a highly intelligent crime.
If... there are multiple murderers... then this case is a thousand times more complicated than we imagined.
Li Ziyu had some difficulty standing and her eyes moved towards the chair at the door.
Lu Bai understood what she meant. She pulled the chair next to Li Ziyu and said, "Sit down for a while."
Lu Bai glanced at the boss again and said, "Stand over here."
She pointed in front of the three wooden boxes and said, "Right here."
The boss rubbed his hands and obediently stood where Lu Bai pointed.
Lu Bai stood behind him, leaning on his memory, looking up and down at his boss, the height of the deceased written in the report.
She said quietly, "Boss, how tall are you?"
The boss lowered his head and thought, "I haven't measured my height for a long time. Putting on shoes is... oh! oh oh oh!"
Before he could finish, Lu Bai grabbed his neck from behind and said, "You TM, you're not going to pay me back? How dare you come and hang around in front of me?"
Li Ziyu held up his head and looked at the scene in front of him.
The boss was completely at a loss as to what to do after Lu Bai's sudden move.
He held Lu Bai's arm tightly, his voice trembling with fear, "No, officer, what do you mean? What money do I owe?"
Lu Bai's strength did not decrease. "What do I mean? Didn't you open a small casino? Why are you still asking me for money? Where is the money from last time?"
The boss was panicked. Lu Bai's hand was not strong, but it was locked on his throat, which is a fragile and sensitive part of the human body.
His heart was beating fast and he was breathing heavily. "I don't understand what you are saying!"
"What does the casino's profit have to do with me? Besides, it's a matter of mutual consent. You can't blame me."
Lu Bai's eyes narrowed, "Do you know that casino?"
The boss pushed Lu Bai away with all his strength, covering his neck, "I don't know what this has to do with this case. You are a bunch of psychopaths."
After saying that, he left the room as if escaping.
Li Ziyu looked at his back with a sharp gaze.
Lu Bai walked behind her and patted her shoulder. "He is hiding something."
[If you really don’t know anything, this reaction is obviously wrong. ]
Li Ziyu stood up and stretched his muscles. "Let me accompany you and repeat the scene again."
Lu Bai stood with his hands folded, a sly smile on his face, "Are you sure you can do it now?"
Li Ziyu already had thin arms and legs, and now in this state, Lu Bai was really afraid that if she exerted too much force, Li Ziyu's arms would be broken.
Li Ziyu rolled up his sleeves unconvinced, "Who are you looking down on?"
She touched the tip of her nose and said, "Let's start with the question, why don't you pay me back?"
Based on the evidence we have now, it is very likely that the murder was caused by money, and all suspicions currently point to the man in glasses.
A suspect whose identity cannot be pinned down.
Lu Bai stood back to where he was just now, confronting Li Ziyu, "Why don't you return my money?"
Li Ziyu turned her back to Lu Bai and said contemptuously, "You entered the place and you are the one playing. You should admit defeat. Why are you talking about paying back the money?"
"Are you willing to admit defeat? That's not what you said when you first dragged me there!"
"So what should I say? Can I still guarantee that you will win? Or should I tell you that if you lose, it's my turn?"
"You don't believe that I killed you?"
"How about this, you pay me another sum of money, and I'll set up a scheme to make your money back."
Having said this, there was a moment of silence in the room.
Li Ziyu turned his head calmly, his voice returning to its usual calmness, "Do you understand? Captain Deer."
motive for murder.
Traces that look like bank cards.
Grudges and entanglements.
Lu Bai looked at the person in front of her, and she felt that this time her progress was ahead of others.
Unexpectedly, in Li Ziyu's eyes, these few clues can already deduce such a complete set of logical chains.
Is this the difference between a genius and an ordinary person?
Li Ziyu lowered his eyebrows and said, "But these are not substantive evidence. We need to restore the scene."
The traces at the scene will not lie. At least when the suspect cannot be identified, the method of committing the crime can be inferred.
This is also a crucial step in cracking the secret room.
Li Ziyu paced in the room, and after walking around several times, he sat back in his chair tiredly.
She rubbed her shoulders, feeling uncomfortable all over after being injured. "Rub them for me."
She said it very naturally.
Lu Bai was also very obedient. He stood behind her and rubbed her shoulders. "If the water stain on the beam is a timer switch, the murderer must have entered the scene more than once."
"If we want to be absolutely sure and recover the tools used in the crime, he might have been somewhere in this store at that time."
[So this boss must have seen the murderer and is shielding the murderer.]
【Everyone makes mistakes. No one can clean up the scene so cleanly because everyone will be careless or ignore details due to habit.】
Li Ziyu slowly raised his eyes and looked at the window equipped with anti-theft shutters.
【But if there are others...】
