The famous detective in the comic world

Chapter 271 The Covering of the Cave

"But I'm curious, if it was indeed kicked away before the incident, and Tom didn't know there was such a hole..." He Nan clicked his tongue when he said this: "...Did the police find it?" ?”

"You mean the police probably found it and didn't tell him."

"Of course there is a possibility, but it's not great." He Nan shook his head: "I think it's more likely that the police didn't find it... That is to say, after the murderer entered here, he covered it up. As for the boiler room, It's not apparently related to the case, so the police probably just came for a cursory look and left, or didn't look at it at all. Anyway, there was no thought there was a hole here."

"Then suppose the police have come to see it." Shirley said: "How could this place be covered up at that time? Now we can't see any traces of covering up at all."

"I don't think it's possible to block it with an obstacle that can't be opened by the mouse. To put it bluntly, it should not be the murderer who removed the obstacle after killing the person and then drilled out from here." He Nan said here, After a moment of silence, he pointed to the dark cardboard box filled with cinders beside the hole: "I guess this is what blocked it. The damaged location is at the bottom corner. Once the murderer put the coal box towards it, It's not going to be detected at all - unless the police deliberately hide the cartons, but they don't search that carefully, they don't do that at all."

"Hmm...it's true." Shirley looked at the position of the cardboard box and nodded approvingly: "The mouse can definitely get in and push it aside. Then it became like this."

"Yes." He Nan nodded: "The carton is very light. Look at the size of those mice just now. They can squeeze in hard to achieve this effect until it doesn't block the entrance at all. Therefore, the boiler room It became a house for mice."

"Okay... let's call Tom over here." Shirley paused for a moment, and then shouted loudly, "Tom, come and see the boiler room! There's a surprise!"

"What?" Tom hurried over while He Nan was recording these contents in his notebook.

When he saw the hole, he was taken aback for a moment, and he was dumbfounded.

"It seems that you don't know its existence." He Nan pointed to the hole and took a deep breath: "Okay, let me tell you how it might have been formed, and what it means..."

"Oh... oh." Tom looked at the hole with an extremely calm expression, and even a little pain.

Maybe he was thinking, if only he had discovered this hole in the first place.

But that doesn't really change anything.

If the murderer really wanted to kill her, he could do it no matter what.

Finally, there is the problem that is not easy to be found.

"...Okay, that's it." He Nan quickly explained to him the analysis of the cave: "The discovery of this cave represents two things. First, there may indeed be a sixth person and use it to invade. The second Two... your three friends have the possibility of using this hole to commit crimes."

"Use it?" Tom was puzzled when he heard the expression: "What do you mean...how did this happen? Aren't they all already in the house? And they haven't gone out..."

"You don't know if they've been out or not?" He Nan said, "And it doesn't have to be after the party started. He may have sneaked in here long before that, making some preliminary preparations for killing... This is In order to prevent you from discovering that he is planning."

"I still don't get it..." means that one of your three friends may have arrived earlier than her official visit. He Nan said: "For example, Tom, you should be here at one o'clock in the afternoon, but you came at eleven o'clock in the morning."He hid his car, then sneaked to the side of the wall to make a hole in it, climbed inside to prepare... For example, check the rated power of the power supply box in advance, set up some props and so on. "

"...Got it." This time Tom understood, and was obviously very annoyed by it: "Damn, there is such a thing... I should just ask them who the fuck knows about this hole!"

"You can't ask. If you ask, you will reveal your secrets." He Nan immediately stopped him: "Don't mention this matter. Ask whatever I ask you, okay? Don't reveal any extra content."

"Ah... good." Tom was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked: "By the way, aren't you very good detectives? Can you tell what size shoes the person who kicked this wall is wearing?"

"Uh...unless the feet are very big or small, obviously it can't." He Nan smiled awkwardly: "Why, is there such a person among your three friends? I mean - very big and special Small, if it’s too big to give an example, you should understand it better if you say it’s too small...it’s the size of a little girl’s feet.”

"No, no." Tom shook his head and sighed helplessly: "Hey, well...it seems that I'm thinking too much."

"I really think too much, but remember to tell us if you have an idea." He Nan encouraged him: "Some of your seemingly outrageous ideas may be the key to solving the case. Detectives may also have blind spots in their thinking, so don't think too highly of them. us."

"I understand." The client sighed restlessly.

... No, rather than sighing, it would be better to say panting in distress.

Take a deep breath.

Apparently, the air, full of pathogens carried by the rats, was undeniably crisp and sweet.

It is to make people can't help but take a few more breaths, exercise their immune system to see if it is still strong, and urge them not to be passive and sabotage.

"Then, let's leave this boiler room full of rats first...Staying with them for a long time is not good for your health." He Nan hurried towards the exit.

After all, he still felt that his immune system didn't need to be exercised.

I even regret not wearing a mask.

It would be terrible if there was a disease named after them.

It is more embarrassing for the traverser to leave his name in history in this way than to fall directly to death or be hit by a car.

But fortunately, when medical students in the Department of Infectious Diseases study in the future, they will be able to see his name from the textbooks.

From a certain point of view, it is also a blessing that is deeply relieved.

After returning to the distribution box, He Nan raised the question again.

"How did you ask those friends?"

"That's about it." Tom handed the phone to He Nan: "I'm about to tell you."

"That's good." He Nan handed the phone to Xueli and asked her to turn the pages, while he wrote down all the useful things on it.
