[Shenxia Tongren] My dear brothers and adults

Chapter 65 Continuing Interrogation

The next person who came in looked like an Asian, his name was Ruan Wu, and he spoke in stuttering English, and said, "What's the matter?"

"You were on the night shift on the night of April 4th, right? What did you see on the camera?"

"It's that girl dancing in the elevator." He said tremblingly, licking his lips.

"Oh yes, what time was it then?"

"It's about three o'clock in the morning." He said with a little fear.

"That girl was probably murdered at three o'clock in the morning," Sherlock interjected.

"Murder? Isn't it suicide?" He said, looking even more panicked.

"Who told you it was suicide?" said Dr. Watson.

"The water tower is so high, only those who commit suicide and get drunk will climb it?" He seemed even more flustered, and said a word.

"She was murdered. Did you know that girl before?" Sherlock stood by the window, backlighting.

"No, I don't know."

"Really? That's very strange. That girl's dance seems to be for her lover."

"How is it possible? Didn't she say that she had hit the evil?!" Ruan Wu immediately retorted.

"Who said that?"

"That's what they all say."

"So that's how it is." Sherlock said, "It's strange. The video from the hotel was sent to the police station immediately after this case happened. Where did you hear it? And who are they referring to?"

"This is really none of my business!"

"Mr. Ruan, you have to know that this matter is related to a murder case, eh, not only a murder case, but also drug trafficking, think about it, if you are involved in this matter, your mother will be sad. "

"My mother, how do you know my mother?"

"The sweater you're wearing."

He looked down at the brown sweater on his body and said, "I don't know much, but I say, don't tell others."

"Okay, say it," Sherlock said, approaching the table from the window, and sitting down.

"I was on the night shift on April 4th, but during the night shift, I was too lazy to drink."

"Why didn't you say it before?"

"My co-worker Cole told me it's better not to talk nonsense, lest I lose my job."

"Cole?"

"Coleridge. He's the security here too."

"Who are you drinking with?"

"It's also the chef on duty, Jiang Chengyuan. He likes to drink very much, and we are the only two in the hotel who come from Asia, so we often drink together. It was the same that night, the two of us drank together. I don’t know, but after hearing what people say, I will say it.”

"Who told you this?"

"what?"

"Who told you the content of the video?"

"Willie told me. He said he'd seen it once before."

"Okay. Mr. Ruan, you must understand one thing. Your colleagues may be accomplices in the drug trafficking case. Be careful not to say the wrong thing. We will also keep it secret for you." Dr. Watson looked at Sherlock and found that He said nothing else.

"Of course. Good-bye, gentlemen." He slid out of the chair with a swift nimbleness, and slid out against the wall.

The one who came in next was the aforementioned Coleridge. He came in and sat down, and said in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Watson forced out a good-natured smile and said, "What were you doing on the night of April 4th?"

"Sit there in the lobby and chat with Mary at the desk."

"Did you see anyone coming in and out of the hotel?"

"No, I don't remember any strangers passing by. The business in our hotel is extremely deserted. I remember it very clearly."

"What about the acquaintances?"

"That is, those waiters walked around, I don't remember clearly."

"Except for the waiter?"

"Nothing."

At this point, Sherlock took over, saying "Did you know the dead before?"

"do not know."

"You are the doorman, don't you really need to remember the characteristics of the guests?"

"So many guests, where do I remember?!" He said a little angrily.

"Really don't remember at all?"

"Of course I don't remember, such an ordinary girl."

"Ordinary? Not at all, she seems to have found a very good boyfriend, doesn't she? It is said that he is very handsome."

"No, absolutely not. I don't remember her having a boyfriend."

"You said a second ago that you had no impression of her at all."

"Then, I suddenly remembered."

"You have to doubt your honesty. Maybe I need to ask the police for a polygraph test. After all, it's about human life." Sherlock said.

"No, you can't do that! I'm not lying, you're insulting!"

"Human life is at stake, sir. This is something that can be forgiven. If the lie detection incident really hurts your dignity, you should be patient for the sake of that girl."

"I can't take it." Cole turned his head away from them.

"Your boss paid me $500 just to reward me for finding the real culprit."

"What? It's impossible."

"Why is it impossible? Isn't this a normal thing?"

"This one……"

"Is it because of drug trafficking?"

Hearing this, he raised his head and looked at Sherlock in panic, and said, "How do you know?"

"I just know."

"Who told you that?"

"No one said, I saw it myself."

"impossible!"

"You used to think that your actions were perfect because you didn't meet me. The water tower on the roof was empty all year round, and there was a pulley next to it. What was it for? Isn't it just for the convenience of hiding drugs? That girl Is it because you discovered such a thing that you died at your hands?"

Cole's face turned pale all of a sudden, and it was really not easy to see this from his mixed-race face. He said tremblingly, "I didn't kill her! I didn't do it."

"I know it's not you, who is the murderer?"

"I don't know, maybe it's the old man! It must be him, he will do such a thing!"

"Who is her boyfriend?"

"what?"

"You heard it, don't make me repeat it."

"Henry." He said, covering his face and crying, "I really don't want to betray him, I don't want to do this. Henry loves her very much, and I definitely wouldn't do it! It can't be Henry's, it must be that Immortal!"

"Is the old man referring to Tom Wilson?"

"Of course it was him. He did all the drug dealing. We just did what we were told. It's none of our business."

"Okay, I will discuss with the police whether I can provide you with witness protection. You can go out and keep it secret at last, otherwise I will not guarantee your safety." Dr. Watson saw that Sherlock had started to fold his fingers together into a pagoda shape, I started to think and said something.

"Yes, sir."

It was already noon at this time, and the police outside came in and said, "Gentlemen, please eat first. This is bought from Chinatown, I hope you like it." After saying that, he put down two lunch boxes and went out.

Dr. Watson was so hungry that his stomach was flattened. He opened the two lunch boxes and looked at them once, and said, "Sherlock, there happened to be soy sauce chicken and sour plum duck. Which would you like to eat?"

"Shut up, you're too loud, I can't think."

"Okay." Dr. Watson said softly, and began to eat the soy sauce chicken.

Before they finished eating, another little police officer came in, put down a lunch box and said, "A lady brought it for you."

When Dr. Watson opened it, it was full of dumplings. He curiously picked one up and tasted it, and almost spat it out? !It's creamy strawberry flavored! !Is this from dumplings?This is the first time I have eaten sweet dumplings when I grow up!Hypatia is so creative! !

He put the box of dumplings next to Sherlock, and watched Sherlock unconsciously reach out to pick up a dumpling and throw it into his mouth, wanting to observe how he would react after eating a strange dumpling .Unfortunately, Sherlock chewed and swallowed it calmly.Dr. Watson suddenly understood why Sherlock has always liked dumplings, because it is convenient to eat, one bite at a time, no knife and fork, no need to spit out bones, it is more convenient than eating sandwiches, which sometimes requires two hands eat.

After Sherlock finished eating the dumplings in the box, he raised his head and said, "John, are you finished?"

"Ah."

"Then next."

Dr. Watson looked at the time and said, "Ahem, just because we've finished eating doesn't mean they've finished eating too."

"bored, eating is so boring."

"Well, in fact, we're almost done with this case, aren't we?"

"Well, it's almost there, there are still some small problems."

"what?"

"We have no evidence."

"what?"

"All the clues are conjectured by me, and the court will not admit it."

"Your deductive method will not be recognized?"

"It's always been like this, I'm used to it."

"Aren't these confessions enough?"

"I have fraudulently obtained many confessions, and they can retract them at any time."

"what?!"

“We say the girl danced in the elevator for her lover, but a tougher lawyer could say she was just schizophrenic and conclude she drowned herself. And that video, it’s Forged, but my evidence is also weak. We say drug trafficking, who can prove it? The tripod print? Come on, the court will not admit it, and the jury will not admit it. We need stronger evidence. This is a consultation Detective's sorrow, no one understands you at all"

"What evidence?"

"Proof of Henry Wilder's Murder."

"How to find it?"

"If the method could be criminal, would you do it?"

"Is the purpose noble?"

"Very noble."

"Then I'm your man."

"Great, in fact, you don't need to do anything. Let's go and search Henry Wilder's house secretly."

"What? Is this breaking into a private house?!"

"You just promised me!"

"Okay, when are we going?"

"At least wait until the evening, I will find someone to tie Henry Wilder and Willie Smith."

"You also have contacts here?"

"I haven't, but Mycroft has."

"This case doesn't need a cia, does it?"

"I don't need the cia, but I need the Department of Homeland Security, or I can also have a relationship with the FBI. Mycroft and the legal counsel of the Department of Homeland Security are in good hands."

"Ahem. Sherlock, you used the wrong word."

Sherlock glanced at Dr. Watson and said, "Whatever, we're about to start, next one."
