Sir, I can do it!

Changsun Ke walked up to Wei Zhao and looked out the window. The guests who passed by the teahouse were still talking with their heads down.As if sensing a little discomfort, the guest turned his head and looked at the two people standing by the window of the restaurant.The guest was surprised at first, then seemed to think of something, smiled politely, and continued talking to the middle-aged man sitting opposite him.

When Qian Bao came in with tea, the two of them still did not move.Subconsciously, Qian Bao stretched his neck to take a look, and said to himself: "Master Yang, this business has not yet been negotiated."

Wei Zhao turned around and asked him, "Who are you talking about?"

Qian Baochao made a nuzzle on the opposite side: "That's the one, Master Yang, the tea merchant. The shopkeeper Han of the tea house was talking to him about business. Master Yang has been to Fan Lou for a few drinks, so the villain recognizes him and knows that he has a lot of tea in his hand. Good tea is sold, but the price is unwilling to compromise. We talked for a long time yesterday, and I don’t know what we talked about, but today we went again.”

The guest that Shicai and Wei Zhao nodded their respects to was shopkeeper Han, and the middle-aged man opposite was Master Yang.

"They were also sitting in their seats yesterday? Also at this time?"

Qian Bao nodded: "Yesterday, when I was serving Mr. Lin and the others from Dongliu, Mr. Lin felt that it was too hot and stuffy, so he wanted to open the window to let in some air. When the villain went to open the window, he happened to see Master Yang and Shopkeeper Han drinking tea."

Qian Bao served good tea, seeing that Wei Zhao didn't ask any more questions, he retreated to prepare dishes.

Changsun Ke pulled out his chair and sat down by the window, poured two cups of herbal tea. Seeing that Wei Zhao was deep in thought, he didn't bother him.

After a long while, Wei Zhao said, "Brother heard a lot of people talking in Dong Wu before entering Dong Wu. Zhao Hai and Wang Liu also confirmed that there were several people in Dong Wu. But after entering Dong Wu, Big Brother didn't see them." Others except Zhou Yan. In addition, Wang Liu did not leave after his eldest brother entered Dongwu, and did not enter Dongwu again until the incident. At that time, only my eldest brother and Zhou Yan were in the room, so how many people were in the private room of Dongwu? ?”

Wei Zhao unconsciously tapped the table with his slender fingers, but his eyes fell on the teahouse opposite.

"Ms. Wei's rape and murder of Miss Wednesday is a big case, and the crime took place in Fan Lou. The shopkeeper Han who passed the teahouse would know about it. He was sitting near the window when he was talking about business with Mr. Yang yesterday. If Dong Wu The guests inside jumped out of the window before the eldest brother entered, and shopkeeper Han will not fail to notice."

He pointed to the teahouse with a good business across the street, and then pointed to the busy street: "Speaking of which, Fanlou is located in a bustling area, and it's the best place to be. The murderer won't be so stupid as to jump out of the window. And A little doubt."

Wei Zhao sat up straight: "If my elder brother didn't lie, he did pass out after entering Dongwu. Then who locked the door of Dongwu? It couldn't be Zhou Yan who locked the door himself, and then Rape and kill yourself. In other words, there must have been other people in the room at the time. The first brother entered the private room and saw Zhou Yan at the first sight, and he was somewhat surprised. It is very likely that he did not notice that there were still people in the private room. So the question It's about how this guy killed someone and left with the door locked."

"I have observed Fan Lou. There are people coming and going during the meal. If the murderer locked the door from the outside in some way after leaving the private room, he will definitely not be able to escape the eyes of the passing guests."

Changsun Ke smiled: "Your inference is indeed well-founded, but don't forget that all the information you got came from the folks in Fanlou. Are you very sure that they won't lie?"

Wei Zhao paused, and rubbed between his brows irritably.

Changsun Ke picked up a piece of fish meat, picked out the fishbone, and put it in Wei Zhao's bowl: "Haste makes waste. The case you see in front of you does fit the characteristics of a murder in a secret room, but from my years of experience in handling cases, the so-called murder in a secret room It's just a well-arranged situation, don't just stick to what's in front of you, sometimes the more impossible things are, the more likely they will happen. Today is your first day in office, and I'm treating you to this meal."

Wei Zhao pursed his lips: "A treat at the murder scene?"

Changsun Ke asked back, "Didn't you pick the place?"

Wei Zhao chewed the fish vigorously, and said, "This time it doesn't count, next time you have to invite it again."

Changsun Ke was about to say yes, but changed the subject and said, "I remember you said that you invited me to Fanlou for dinner."

Wei Zhao looked down at the delicious food on the table, this was the order he ordered just now in retaliation, and then he suddenly felt that the fish in his mouth was not tasty.

He swallowed the fish meat and said carefully: "Can I invite you next time?"

Huo Bao'er looked at his young master with contempt, he remembered that his young master was obviously a very generous person...

While talking, Qian Bao came in again, saying that Mr. Lin had come.Wei Zhao raised his eyebrows, thinking that he was going to visit later, but he found it by himself.

Lin Zhan poked his head outside the East No. [-] private room, and saw Wei Zhao eating inside, he was dumbfounded for a moment.Wei Zhao called him in, Lin Zhan shook his head frantically.What a joke, this is a murder scene!He sneaked a glance at Changsun Ke, and his heart was really dark.After staying with people from Nanfu for a long time, my mind is not normal!

Seeing that he didn't dare to come in, Wei Zhao changed to a seat near the door and sat down. Chang Sun Ke moved the dishes over thoughtfully and followed suit.

Lin Zhan leaned against the door frame, still having lingering fears. He always felt that the private room was sinister, and thought that Fanlou would never come to the east for dinner again in the future.

In the past, Lin Zhan also liked to tease cats and dogs, but he was a man of righteousness, and he and Cheng Shixun were family friends.Wei Xuan and Cheng Shixun were also in the military camp, and they had a very close relationship. When they came and went, they met Lin Zhan and Lu Da, and they often got together.

Lin Zhan has an elder brother, Xijue, who is white, and the family doesn't need him to do anything, so he idles around all day long.The east part of the city is lively, and he is also a frequent visitor, and even has some hobbies similar to Wei Zhao's.Therefore, among Wei Xuan's friends, Lin Zhan was the only one who could chat with Wei Zhao.

"Brother Lin, is there something wrong?"

Lin Zhan put his hands on his sleeves, sniffed, and said, "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about the case of Fan Lou. Cheng Shixun and Lu Da are on duty today, and in the morning they took me out of the bed and told them to call I'll keep an eye on this case, don't let Big Brother Wei be wronged."

"I would like to thank Brother Lin for his concern."

Lin Zhan waved his hand: "No, no, I can't help you much." Then he lowered his head a little annoyed: "Brother Wei had been away for a long time at that time, if only I was smarter and asked Qian Bao to look for it."

"If you do mental calculations but don't care, how can you blame Big Brother Lin. By the way, Big Brother Lin was next door at the time, but did you hear anything strange about Dongwu?"

Lin Zhan scratched his head, tilted his head to think about it, and said while thinking: "I didn't hear any movement in Dongwu at first, but Qian Bao opened and closed the door a few times when serving food next door. I have some impressions. Invite everyone to have a drink, talk about some interesting things, and they are talking happily, who will pay attention to the neighbors."

"Later, we drank too much, Brother Wei went to the bathroom, and the three of us continued to talk nonsense. Oh, but occasionally I could hear some movement from Dongsi, speaking with a foreign accent, and I had a hard time listening. Listen. When there were too many people, he knew that those people were here to criticize. Sometimes they picked food, and sometimes they said that there was something wrong with the wine. Qian Bao used to be able to serve the three private rooms with ease, but yesterday he was stunned because Dong Si was entangled. "

Speaking of this, Lin Zhan also looked contemptuous.

"The three of us were talking about excitement, and didn't notice that Brother Wei hadn't returned for a long time. Until Wang Liu screamed, saying that Wei Shizi killed someone, and he wanted to report to the police! The brothers were all shocked, and immediately sobered up. , hurriedly went to the next door to see, and saw Big Brother Wei lying on Miss Zhou's body in disheveled clothes, drunk and unconscious."

His eyes fell to the locker involuntarily, and he couldn't help but flinch.

Wei Zhao asked again: "Before this, did you hear someone from Dongwu talking?"

Lin Zhan thought for a while, and suddenly said: "It really is! I didn't remember it until you mentioned it. You said it, it really took a while. Dong Wu didn't know what happened, and suddenly he started to make a noise, good guy , that voice was louder than the three of us. Then suddenly there was no movement, as if the energy of the quarrel just now was like a dream."

"Then what? Did you hear any strange sounds again, such as... Men and women are in love..."

Lin Zhan's face turned red: "Then how can it be, Fan Lou is a restaurant, not a brothel, who would be in a restaurant in broad daylight..."

Lin Zhan choked suddenly, as if what Brother Wei committed was rape and murder of Miss Zhou...

He was at a loss again.I tried my best to think back for a long time, but I still shook my head: "I really didn't hear that."

Lin Zhan looked around, leaned most of his body into the private room, and said in a low voice: "You are still young, you don't understand. At that time, I thought it was strange that Brother Wei was so drunk that he looked like a ghost. He has to be supported by someone, so how can he have the strength to do that. Even if he is conscious, his body is out of control, anyone who comes along can overturn him. Now, even if Big Brother Wei is capable, Ms. Zhou is weak, she can't beat Brother Wei. But there are so many people coming in and out of the restaurant, Ms. Zhou struggles a little, makes a big noise, or shouts for help. The brothers are next door, so they must be heroic and rush over. The hero saved the beauty!"

Wei Zhao's mind suddenly exploded.

He has been obsessed with how the murderer committed the crime and how to create the conditions for the murder in the secret room, but he ignored the most important person.Victim's statement.

Zhou Yan's tragic death made Wei Zhao sigh, but because he was eager to find the real culprit and exonerate Wei Xuan, he forgot about the Miss Zhou's family who had been missing for many days.

Lin Zhan was right. If there were really only Wei Xuan and Zhou Yan in Dong Wu at that time, as long as Zhou Yan didn't want to, she might escape.But she didn't.And if there were other people in the house at that time, it is also possible that Zhou Yan was coerced and did not dare to speak up. Then the question goes back to the beginning, how did the murderer leave.

Secondly, Zhou Yan disappeared for many days, then suddenly appeared on Xishui Street, and Wei Xuan bumped into him on purpose, whether it was accidental or premeditated.If it had been premeditated, then the question would be why Zhou Yan disappeared, where she went during the few days she disappeared, who she met, and why she suddenly appeared.

Wei Zhao's whole body was icy cold, the more he studied about a murder case, the more he thought about it, the more frightening he became.When did the person behind the design start to make the layout, what is the purpose of the layout, and what will happen after the goal is achieved...

The living can lie and be deceived by circumstances, but the dead can't!

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"I want to check Zhou Yan."
