The Secret Chamber of the Card Game

Chapter 3 [Rose Funeral - Part [-]]

Xiao Lou's major is forensic medicine, and he is best at toxicological identification. However, since he was a child, he has liked detective novels and escape rooms, so he is very familiar with the basic reasoning process.

When the police are dealing with a homicide case, if they can find the first crime scene, it will be of great help to the detection of the case.

Xiao Lou judged that this is not the scene of the first crime, the reason is actually very simple.

The heart is the blood supply center of the human body. It is like a powerful pump, and its regular beat every minute can send blood to all parts of the body.The fatal wound of the deceased was in the heart, and the knife was inserted close to the aorta. If the deceased was stabbed to death on the bed, the blood gushing out after the aorta was cut would splash on the pillow, bed sheet or even the wall.

The surrounding area was clean, without any trace of blood spatter.

Her blood only soaked the clothes on her chest. Judging from the amount of bleeding, it was about 100cc, which is not as good as half of what a normal person draws when donating blood. She was obviously killed elsewhere. , was carried to the bed in the bedroom.

Murder, bloodletting, and laying the dead on a bed covered with rose petals, the murderer is obviously a psychopath!

Xiao Lou turned around and came to the kitchen, searching for other evidence on the one hand, and wanting to confirm his inference on the other.

The dead man's dirty clothes in the bathroom had some stains that looked like blood, but from his professional point of view, it wasn't blood at all, more like juice.The kitchen is the first thing he thinks of when it is closely related to fruit juice.

Xiao Lou walked into the kitchen, and sure enough, he saw a watermelon on the table.The watermelon was cut in half, half should have been eaten, and the remaining half was now rotten and smelly—the blood-like stain on the hostess' clothes was watermelon juice.

There was a fruit knife stuck in the watermelon, Xiao Lou gently pulled out the fruit knife.

The sharp, sharp slender fruit knife is exactly the same as the fatal wound on the heroine's body that he found when he checked the body just now.

This fruit knife was the weapon that killed the heroine!

Xiao Lou's heart beat violently.

He began to search the kitchen carefully. If he guessed correctly, this is the real scene of the first crime!

The kitchen should have been cleaned and there was no obvious blood.

He squatted down to the corner to check the floor drain, and found some hair on the edge of the floor drain—short black hair about 3cm long, which obviously belonged to men.On the wall behind the water pipe, there were still a few drops of blood that hadn't been cleaned up.

The discovery of the first crime scene and the murder weapon made the clue collection rate reach 70% in an instant.

Xiao Lou routinely turned over the trash can. There were many vegetable leaves, fruit peels, egg shells, and quick-frozen meat packaging bags in the kitchen trash can. It can be inferred that the heroine should have cooked a meal at home before she died. And it's more than two people, vegetarian dishes plus meat, at least five dishes, she can't eat so much by herself.

In addition, the refrigerator and cabinet were not found.

Xiao Lou turned and went out.There is a large bouquet of roses on the dining table facing the kitchen. The glass vase in which the roses are placed is very delicate, the water inside is still very clear, and the roses are blooming well, but some of the flowers have been picked off, which is probably the rose petals in the bedroom. origin of.

Xiao Lou also turned the trash can in the restaurant upside down and put it on the ground. Except for some fruit peels, there was also a greeting card, which was a heart-shaped card commonly used in flower shops. It read: "Happy birthday, my husband will always love you."

The clue collection rate has become 75%, and the roses and greeting cards are obviously helpful to the reasoning of the case.

Xiao Lou walked into the study opposite the dining table.

Bookcases occupying one wall are filled with medical books, including several monographs on cardiac surgery.

Next to the bookcase is a very common desk with a lamp on it.There are three drawers on the right side of the desk, and a small cabinet with a door on the left.Xiao Lou opened the drawer, and in the first drawer he found a passport and a licensed medical certificate, which belonged to the owner of the house, and he finally knew the information about the owner——Zhao Sen, born on October 1988, 10, Han nationality, is a surgeon.

In the other drawers, there are some bills for paying property fees, bank receipts, and materials for medical papers, which are not very helpful to the case.

Xiao Lou closed the drawer and opened the cabinet door in the lower left corner.

A black safe was found in the cabinet, with a combination lock. It was a four-row digital combination disk. From top to bottom, it was 123, 456, 789, *0#. , and then press # key to unlock.

Digital password...

The numbers involved in this case are currently only the birthdays of the male and female hostesses.

The best friend sent perfume to the heroine and said happy birthday; the greeting card in the restaurant, the husband gave her roses and also said happy birthday.Multiple clues mentioned "birthday", and this date is definitely not simple.

The host's birthday can be found on the doctor's qualification certificate, October 1988, 10.Xiao Lou remembered the hostess's birthday very clearly. On the greeting card written by her best friend, the final date of inscription was: July 26th.

The password box of the safe is four digits. He entered 1026, and the password was wrong.Xiao Lou then entered the hostess' birthday 0717 and pressed the # key.

With a "pop", the crisp sound broke the tranquility of the murder scene, and the safe was opened.

——The speed of clue collection suddenly jumped to 90%!

At this point, there are 18 minutes left in the countdown.

The interior of the safe has an upper and lower layer structure, and a folder is placed on the upper layer.Xiao Lou took it out and quickly flipped through it, extracting key information at a glance.

Two insurance contracts, the insured name of the first one is Zou Xiaomei, the beneficiary's name is Zhao Sen, and the relationship between the two is husband and wife.The second one is the opposite, with the insured Zhao Sen and the beneficiary Zou Xiaomei.

The husband and wife bought commercial insurance for each other, including medical critical illness insurance and personal accident insurance, and the annual payment amount was more than 1 yuan.If the insured is hospitalized due to serious illnesses such as tumors and cardiovascular diseases, all hospitalization expenses within RMB 50 can be reimbursed; if the insured dies unexpectedly, the beneficiary can directly obtain compensation of up to RMB 200 million from the insurance company.

When Xiao Lou saw this insurance contract, he was frightened for a moment.

He also bought commercial medical insurance for his parents. It is normal for relatives to buy insurance for each other.However, it is not uncommon to kill people for insurance fraud. He once saw the news that his son killed his mother just to get insurance money. It was crazy!

In this case, the relationship between husband and wife has broken down. If Zou Xiaomei dies in an accident, Zhao Sen will receive up to 200 million yuan in compensation!

Xiao Lou's spine felt cold, he put down the insurance contract and continued to look through the safe on the lower floor.

There are several photo albums on the lower floor.

There are many photos of Zhao Sen in the album, from elementary school to junior high school, high school, and university graduation, recording his complete growth trajectory.He should be congenitally myopic and wore glasses when he was very young.Judging from the photo album, this Zhao Sen is a very gentle and easy-going person on the surface-because he is smiling in every photo.

In addition to personal photo albums, there are several wedding photo albums.When the couple first got married, they seemed very loving. The man hugged his wife very gentlemanly, and the woman leaned in his arms like a bird, with a sweet smile.

turn back...

Xiao Lou saw the photos of the wedding scene.

There is a group photo of four people, in addition to the groom, the bride, and the best man and bridesmaid.

The group photo was apparently snapped from the side, with none of the four looking at the camera.In the photo, the groom and the bride looked at each other and smiled, the bridesmaid looked at the best man affectionately, and the best man not far away was standing in the crowd and holding a goblet to toast, but his eyes were fixed on The bride looks.

Xiao Lou cheered up immediately.

——The fourth person involved in the case appeared!

This best man also appeared in Zhao Sen's personal photo album. In Zhao Sen's graduation photo, there was a group photo of two people with their shoulders draped. They should be close buddies. Zhao Sen would only invite him to be the best man when they got married.

It stands to reason that a friend's wife should not be bullied, and a man would generally avoid suspicion of a good buddy's wife, but the best man's direct, prey-like gaze is obviously not the attitude he should have towards a brother's wife.

Xiao Lou continued to rummage through the safe, and found a file bag in a hidden location on the bottom floor.

When he opened it, there was a contract in the file bag, which was an investigation agreement secretly signed by Zhao Sen and the private detective. The investigation was about the relationship between his cousin He Yongqiang, his wife Zou Xiaomei, and his wife's best friend Liu Yun.When Xiao Lou pulled out the contract, a large stack of photos also fell out.

He picked up the photos, all of which were snapshots of the three of them shopping and eating together.In some photos, Liu Yun and He Yongqiang are holding hands and acting intimately.In some photos, however, Zou Xiaomei and He Yongqiang are holding hands and embracing—this scumbag He Yongqiang obviously has two legs, dating the young and beautiful Liu Yun while hooking up with his cousin!

The scale of the last few photos is very large, Zou Xiaomei is wearing light silk pajamas, making out with He Yongqiang in the bedroom...

These photos at home were taken from a bird's-eye view, and there is a time mark in the upper right corner. Obviously, Zhao Sen has installed a surveillance camera at home at this time to monitor his wife's movements at any time. These photos are from Screenshots from monitoring.

Xiao Lou: "..."

What a bloody drama!

It wasn't Zhao Sen who cheated, but the hostess Zou Xiaomei who died on the bed!

If he hadn't opened the safe in the study, he might have misjudged the heroine cheating on his best friend, and the heroine angrily tore up the marriage certificate.Now it seems that it was the heroine who cheated, and the person who cheated was her husband's cousin and best friend's boyfriend...

This reversal came unexpectedly.

Xiao Lou put down the photo in shock, and quickly adjusted his mood. He looked at the prompt in the floating frame, the clue collection rate was fixed at 90%, and the safe was a big clue accounting for 15%.From the clues in the safe, he knew the names of all the people involved in this case—the deceased Zou Xiaomei, her husband Zhao Sen, her lover He Yongqiang, and her best friend Liu Yun.

There is an intricate relationship between these four people. He Yongqiang is Zhao Sen's cousin and Liu Yun's boyfriend. Zou Xiaomei and He Yongqiang cheated, which is equivalent to putting two green hats on her husband Zhao Sen and best friend Liu Yun at the same time.

As victims, Zhao Sen and Liu Yun both had reasons to kill her.But who the specific murderer is still needs further confirmation.

The clue collection rate was 90%, only the last key clue was not found.

Xiao Lou turned around and came to the living room, searched carefully, but found nothing.

When he searched in the last children's room, he found a mobile phone and power bank next to the pillow in the children's room. The mobile phone was covered with a pink case, which should belong to the deceased Zou Xiaomei.

Such a crucial clue is actually in the farthest children's room where most people would not search first!

Xiao Lou's eyes lit up, and he immediately picked up the phone.

He pressed the power button, and a line popped up on the screen prompting "Please enter the password", and a digital password disk appeared.

Xiao Lou subconsciously entered the heroine's birthday "0717", however, a warning popped up on the screen: "Password verification error, the phone will be automatically locked after 5 wrong attempts, and the remaining number of times is 4."

He then entered the male owner's birthday 1026, prompting: "Password verification error, the phone will be automatically locked after five wrong attempts, and the remaining number of times is 3."

Not a birthday password?what is that?

The countdown in the floating box has 15 minutes left.

Xiao Lou frowned and fell into deep thought.

Bedroom, bathroom, study room, children's room, kitchen, living room, he has already searched all of them. The hostess' birthday is July 7th, and the hostess' birthday is October 17th. Other than that, there is nothing related to numbers. clues.

In reality, the deceased's mobile phone password can be set at will, and if the police can't solve it, they will find professional technicians to crack it.But now, he was alone in the secret room, and he found the phone, but he couldn't unlock the password. He couldn't just guess, right?

Xiao Lou picked up the phone and thought about it, then turned and went back to the bedroom.

The screen of the mobile phone is locked, and a prompt of "Please enter the password" pops up. Most people may be entangled in what the password is, and waste time looking for password clues.

But Xiao Lou had already searched the entire room as quickly as possible just now, and he was confident that there was nothing he missed.

Since the phone's password is not a birthday, there are no other clues related to numbers in the whole house.Therefore, the prompt "Please enter the password" that pops up on the mobile phone may also be a "disturbing item".

——Who said that you can only enter the password to unlock the phone?

Xiao Lou took the phone back to the master bedroom, walked to Rose's bed, raised the deceased's right hand, and placed her right thumb on the fingerprint button of the phone.

The pink mobile phone and charging treasure left at home belonged to the hostess.

The hostess was lying on the bed. Although it was a corpse, her fingers were still there.

Wouldn't it be more convenient to use her fingerprint to unlock it?
