fog city detective

Liang Xi said: "I'll ask you a question first, are you for Wendy or Wenxi or justice and truth?"

Poppy thought for a while: "Justice and truth, of course."

Liang Xi smiled: "You don't believe the conclusions of the police and the appraisal agency, but you believe the words of the eight-year-old girl. Is this the justice and truth you understand?"

Poppy chuckled: "It has something to do with Wendy too. I can't bear to see her sitting outside your door wiping tears. Since she trusts you, I hope you can give her an explanation."

Liang Xi said: "I can answer you now. The reason for asking a hundred is that you have human nature. If I am wrong, you don't need to help me."

Bobby pointed to the meter-high materials on the desk: "Are these unorganized?"

Liang Xi said: "Thank you." Hehe!

So Poppy joined the work of sorting out the data, which also made Poppy very confused. Liang Si flipped through the data very quickly, and each page only stayed for three or five seconds before turning over.Poppy asked, "Are you looking for something characteristic?"

Liang Xi: "Yes! Do you know why I am so serious?"

Bobby spreads his hands: "Because you want me to praise you for your professional detective spirit?"

Liang Xi said: "No, this suicide note is probably forged."

Poppy was curious: "Why? The experts didn't doubt the suicide note, why are you so sure?"

Liang Xi took out a silk meter ruler (one millimeter equals 10 silk meters) and a magnifying glass from the drawer, and then took the suicide note.Poppy walked to Liang Xi's side and leaned over to check.Liang Xi measured the spacing between two sentences. The spacing between the first character in the first row and the third character in the second row was about 1.7 mm, and the spacing between a character in the middle of the first row and the middle character in the second row was 1.9 mm. Left and right, the distance between the last word in the first line and the last word in the middle of the second line is about 2.1 mm.

Although the value is small and there is an error in the measurement, it can be intuitively judged that each row of Wen Xi's words is slowly sloping upwards through the silk meter ruler with the naked eye.

Poppy didn't understand: "What does that mean?"

Liang Xidao: "The spacing value of each line of the suicide note is the same. This suicide note has a total of twelve lines, and the spacing of each line is exactly the same. It is impossible for a human to do it so accurately, and only a computer can do it."

Liang Xi said: "Look at the most common word 'me' and the words that contain 'me'. There are 8 'me' in the suicide note, and there are three different types of me. The first type of me, m The writing is heavier. The second me, the e and the edge of the m touch together. The third me, the e is slightly inclined. After you list the 8 mes individually and divide them into three groups, you will find that they are exactly the same, and even overlap perfectly ."

Liang Xidao: "I basically wrote such a fake suicide note with a mechanical arm after the computer scanned the handwriting. But I can't find three kinds of me in the materials. Speaking of which, I must tell you bad news. "

Poppy asked, "What's the bad news?"

Liang Xi said: "It should be a professional who can play so delicately. It is impossible for them to leave the original text scanned. Therefore, I can only tell you that the suicide note is fake, but I can't produce any evidence to prove that the suicide note is fake."

Poppy said: "You can explain me and the distance to the police."

Liang Xidao: "The ex-boyfriend's defense lawyer doesn't need to explain why Wen Xi's suicide note has the same spacing. The police must do the work of finding evidence in the original text. Let's take an analogy, I am a criminal, and I took a copy of Wen Xi's suicide note. Xi's workbook is scanned by the computer, do you think it is possible for me to send this workbook back to Wen Xi's house after finishing the work?"

Bobby thought for a while and said, "Perhaps criminals like to add to the hype? While hiding the suicide note in Wen Xi's house, put the workbook back by the way."

Liang Xi sighed: "Since there may be such a stupid criminal, we have to read all the texts."

Chapter 62 Goodbye Charlie

Why do experts think the handwriting is genuine?Experts will only confirm the authenticity of handwriting, and will not consider the possibility of computer scanning and robotic arm writing.Experienced experts are old, especially handwriting experts who are far from technology.The mechanical writing can be exactly the same as the target's words, even the spacing is exactly the same.For Liang Xi to prove that it was a suicide note written by a computer arm, he had to find the text format scanned by the computer.

Wen Xi also had enough to eat, and even kept the workbooks from middle school, and even kept the textbooks for the past few years in a cardboard box in an orderly manner.After reading so many texts, Liang Xi has a certain understanding of Wen Xi. She has been a child of someone else's family in the pre-middle school stage.Well-behaved, sensible, like to learn, serious, is a primary school bully.Liang Xi would rather ignore what he knew about Wen Xi, because it would make Wen Xi feel pitiful.

When drinking and chatting with Baker, Baker told such a true story.A colleague's cousin is very diligent and hard-working to create a beautiful family. Unfortunately, her husband gambles and the family is in debt. The cousin has no choice but to choose a certain job.After working for about half a year, the family debt was paid off, but my cousin couldn't come back either.A man earning £[-] a month easily can't stand the hard work of £[-] a month.

When a person makes a lot of money easily, it is difficult for him to choose to work hard to make a small amount of money.Until the occupation is restricted and the income drops to a certain level, in desperation will you choose to make a small amount of money.However, the cousin of Colleague Baker is not a negative example. The cousin has successfully transformed into a small boss with a special occupation and has two performance teams.Well-connected, high-income, has become a successful person.In today's era of poverty and prosperity, money largely determines one's social status in the circle of relatives and friends.

This is the case with Wenxi, she is used to low workload, high compensation and high consumption.John taught Liang Xi that the first element of being a detective is cold-bloodedness. When you think about it, you will have subjective preferences, which will inevitably affect your judgment.A person is murdered, and in many cases the murderer has done more wrong than the murderer.

The image of Wen Xi in his mind became more and more three-dimensional. Liang Xi noticed that something was wrong and threw Wen Xi out decisively.What should I do if I throw it away?Liang Xi temporarily put down the materials, diverted his attention, and diverted his attention to the topics that he needed to care about.

Liang Xi poured the black tea and asked, "Bobbie, have you ever met such a thing at a party? You run into a girl, and then you both go to the room together. After you're done, you don't know the girl's name or any information about the girl."

Poppy looked at Liang Xi, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he smiled thiefly: "Why are you asking this question?"

Liang hit his middle finger and ignored him.Bobby was interested, and this topic was more interesting than sorting information: "I'm not very suitable for answering this question. I often encounter this kind of thing, but most girls want to engrave their identity information on me. Who? When did this happen?"

Liang Xi shook his head: "No."

Poppy: "I see. You want to find her, but you know that this kind of thing has its own set of rules, and you're worried that she doesn't want to disturb her normal life because of it. You're more worried that she didn't take it seriously. Take it to heart. You're also worried that she's forgotten about it."

Liang Xi tilted his head and thought for a while: "It seems."

Poppy said, "But you long to see her again."

Liang Xi browsed the suicide note and did not answer this question.

Poppy said: "Your mentality is normal. I think the other party doesn't want to leave any messages and phone calls to you at all. If it's a good time to get together, or if you refuse your request for a phone call, you won't have the idea of ​​seeing her again. "

Liang Xi asked back, "How do you know?"

Poppy: "Because I'm a rejecter. Trust me, you're nothing but the past to her."

Liang Xi disagreed: "I think she likes me."

Poppy laughed: "Chicks think so. This is a necessary psychological growth process from a teenager to an adult."

Liang Xi was silent, thinking about the girl in the baseball cap, and staring at the suicide note with empty eyes.Suddenly Liang attacked: "Strange, the content of the suicide note is very in line with Wen Xi's character. Since the suicide note is a forgery, where did the forger get Wen Xi's information? If there is no investigation and understanding, some specious words should be used." I have been paying attention to the handwriting, but ignoring the content of the suicide note itself.

Bobby said: "The ex-boyfriend should know Wenxi very well." The ex-boyfriend went to the police station with a lawyer within two hours after the incident.

Liang Xi said: "It seems that this is the only possibility. Parents don't know Wenxi now. Colleagues don't know Wenxi in the past. If the forger doesn't have enough credible information, he won't draw up a suicide note with so many words. And only The information provided by the employer is the information trusted by the counterfeiter. The calculation time should be half an hour after the incident and half an hour before going to the police station, which happened within the hour.”

Liang Xi said: "I need a hacker, and I need the communication records of my ex-boyfriend's mother. As an ordinary person, she would not consider using other phone numbers to contact the forger if her son killed... No, she doesn't It's thinking of forging suicide notes. She's thinking of someone who can handle the problem. Or her friend was in trouble and someone helped her friend deal with it."

Liang Xi said: "To be more precise, the communication records of the ex-boyfriend's mother within half an hour after the incident occurred."

Bobby took the pager and said, "I need a hacker."

The head bodyguard replied: "Sir, I can find hackers, but I can't help you find hackers." Probably means that he knows hackers, and as the head bodyguard, he cannot let Poppy contact the hackers.Bodyguards can help Bobby do some small crimes, such as raiding the villa in order to save people. Even if someone catches his tail, it cannot spread to Bobby.The bodyguards wouldn't allow Poppy to personally get involved in any crime.

Poppy said: "You come up."

Bobby asked the bodyguard to check the communication records of his ex-boyfriend's mother half an hour after the incident and within half an hour through hackers.It is best to get information such as text messages, emails, etc.After the head bodyguard understood, he appointed a bodyguard as the head bodyguard, and he drove away alone.

Two hours later, Liang Xi read all the materials, but still could not find the text used in the forged suicide note.At this time, the head bodyguard finished his work and went to the detective agency.

Within half an hour of Liang Xi's explanation, Wen Xi's ex-boyfriend's mother's cell phone had one outgoing call and three incoming calls.All incoming calls are anonymous and cannot be traced.The target of the outgoing call was Charlie, a Dutch international photographer.

Charlie travels around Europe and even around the world to take pictures of city scenes. He also often shoots short videos to introduce countries, cities and cuisines. He is keen to participate in strange festivals around the world.He has a certain number of fans on YouTube, and is regarded as a short video celebrity.

Charlie donates all of his short video earnings to charity, and seems to be more interested in travel than money.Years of travel has allowed him to make many friends, including many stars, football stars, politicians and so on.The most powerful among the friends is Xiao Kefu, the prospective head of the European Kefu family.The Kefu family is a Jewish family that has been passed down for hundreds of years. It is not uncommon to see families that have been passed down for hundreds of years in Europe. family.

Liang Xi looked at Charlie's photo: "I've seen him." This Charlie was the man Liang Xi met when he was doing magic in the park. Liang Xi preconceived that the man had bad intentions and closed the door to thank him before he opened his mouth.

Chapter 63 The Undefeated East

Liang Xi explained to Bobby: "I don't know how bad this Charlie is, but I'm sure he is a bad guy. And he is a high-level bad guy. We can't move this person."

Poppy said, "It means that Wen Xi didn't commit suicide."

Liang Xi nodded: "As a detective, the person in charge can now tell you that Wen Xi definitely did not commit suicide. Close the case and give me money."

Poppy asked, "Is that the end of the Wenxi case?"

Liang Xi said: "I don't want to cause trouble."

Bobby is not afraid of the sky and earth: "I'll come."

Liang Xiyou looked at Poppy for a while: "Golden Man is no longer available, you have to consider a new nickname. You must keep this nickname secret, otherwise it will cause trouble for you and your family. Let me make it clear to you first, Charlie Ten Eighty-nine times he is a broker, and provoking him is likely to endanger his business team. People are forced to do everything in a hurry, do you understand what I mean?"

Poppy's focus was different from what Liang Xi thought, and asked, "How about Rapunzel?"

Liang Xi shook his head.

Poppy: "Waterfall Man?"

Liang Xi said: "The bottom horse is called a man. Green Lantern, Green Arrow, Dragonfly, etc.. Niu Ren nicknames: Superman, Thanos, Thor."

Poppy pondered for a long time: "The Prophet? It sounds super powerful."

Liang Xi: "This is plagiarism, I think you should use oriental elements."

Poppy: "But the only oriental element I know is you."

Liang Xi said: "That's why everyone won't see through your identity."

Makes sense, Bobby thought, "Ninja."

Liang Xi: "It's too oriental."

Poppy: "Shaolin Ninja."

Your home Shaolin only produced ninjas.Liang Xidao: "You have to express your oriental pride, and let everyone think that you are an oriental race."

East?pride?Poppy asked, "Victory in the East?"

Liang Xi was startled and asked carefully, "Do you think Dongfang Invincible will be more smooth?"

Poppy raised his thumb: "OK, from today onwards, I will be undefeated in the East."

No culture, it's scary.Liang Xi applauded: "Very good. Next, you need to learn a sentence of Chinese as your nameplate. You said before that I am a man with golden hair. I have no strength, no depth, and I can't create a sense of mystery for the other party."

Poppy got it right: "I'll be back! Terminator. Get busy, or die! The Shawshank Redemption. I like the idea, but I don't like your smile."

……

Charlie, wearing a tuxedo at a dinner party, greets acquaintances with champagne glasses and smiles.Before the change, he would definitely integrate into everyone's conversations, but now he can't, and now he's in a bad mood.The ore group was temporarily disbanded. After he stepped down as the director, he thought he should have a place in the team because of his background.

A few days ago he had an acquaintance who shouldn't have asked him to help with a murder case, and he contacted the boss in a spirit of probing the boss.The ore mass quickly resolved the matter.This means that the new director of the ore group has taken office, and the ore group has started to operate, and all this has nothing to do with him.All he has left now is the identity of Charlie, an international videographer and a short video broadcaster.

"Hello!" Charlie was a little excited when he saw that the phone number was not displayed on his phone.

Poppy used the voice changer provided by the bodyguard: "Charlie, I know you forged your suicide note. Now give you 24 hours to correct the Vichy murder, or we will wipe you and your team from the face of the earth."

Charlie was silent for a few seconds and asked, "Who are you?"

Poppy said coldly in Chinese: "Sunrise in the east, only I am undefeated." Hang up the phone.

Poppy asked, "Is that okay?"

Liang Xidao: "It's not a big problem based on my analysis. The other party is guilty of being a thief. When we find him and tell him that we have seen through it, they will hold a skeptical attitude. We can't believe it, because we have found him. Of course. It's impossible to believe. It's time to gamble. Let's analyze it. They're either going to bet the whole team to help the ex-boyfriend's mother, or sacrifice the ex-boyfriend."

Liang Xidao: "If the other party is a mature team, they will not choose to fight until they have figured out the identity of Dongfang Invincible, otherwise the team will not be mature. The best way is to accept our proposal on the one hand. Hold us steady and start investigating who's threatening their team. That's the risk I told you about."

Liang Xidao: "The ex-boyfriend's mother is a rich person, but not a very rich person. This means that her influence is limited, her resources are limited, and her importance is very low. It's a low-cost pawn that can be thrown away. It's a trick called companion tigers to eat pigs, even with grass and trees."

Liang Xi said: "The last point, pay for it."

Bobby was very cheerful, took out a stack of pounds from his pocket, took out four of the 50-pound notes on the table, and said, "Well done, 100 pounds is your tip."

Liang Xi: "100 is the salary for solving the case. What about the salary for helping you catch the bad guys?"

Poppy wondered: "Don't the police arrest people after solving the case?"

Liang Xi said, "I'm a detective, and I don't care about arresting people."

Poppy thought for a while, and got back the 50 pounds: "Bad attitude, I will tip you."

Liang Xiren was short-sighted and reached out his hand to withdraw the banknotes: "My fault." Next time, we must discuss the price first.You never know what the rich think. For example, this kid is now taking his own wages for fun.

To be fair, it's a good income, and you can earn two hundred pounds a night without going out.

Bobby's villain is triumphant: "It's good to know that it's wrong, and I will change it in the future."

Liang Xi asked back, "Why do you have to correct your mistakes?"

Poppy was in a good mood, and didn't care about Liang Xi's weak mouth: "I'll let people collect information about the haunted hospital first, and we'll go to the ghost in a few days."

Liang Xi said: "It's free for hell, and there is an additional charge for solving cases."

Poppy said indifferently: "I see." Talking about money with himself?

Poppy picked up the pager: "Book a place for me, go and relax."

The head bodyguard replied, "Okay sir."

Liang Xi asked, "Where are you going?"

Poppy said, "Of course it's club night."

Liang Xi asked, "Is there any wages?"

Bobby said, "I'll treat you."

Liang Xi said, "Don't go."

Poppy is dissatisfied: "You are very disappointed. Where do you go to play when you are happy and unhappy every day?"

Liang Xi: "Go away."

"No." Bobby asked curiously: "Don't you like girls? The girls in the club are all pretty and don't wear much. Those who go to the club are mentally prepared to be knocked down tonight. On your friend's terms, you can kill a lot of girls in seconds."

Liang Xi took an iron kettle to boil water, and said, "I don't like noisy environments and heavy makeup of the opposite sex. Both of these nightclubs are taken up."
