Qi Zang previously considered it from the perspective of the three collaborating.

But there is something unreasonable when you push it down.If you have to find some reasons to make sense, these reasons will seem a bit far-fetched.

Now if the three-person conspiracy is changed to a two-person conspiracy, Qin Chunlan is kept in the dark from the beginning to the end, how the two murders happened, and what tricks the murderer played, can be pushed down logically——

Shang Boran admitted during the questioning that he asked Qin Chunlan to pick him up.

But he didn't say how.

Now it is conceivable that maybe he asked Qin Chunlan to come over for a cup of coffee, or use something that could attract Qin Chunlan's business negotiations to distract her attention.

In this way, Qin Chunlan went to Shang Boran's house to talk with him without locking the car door.At this moment, the murderer X got into Qin Chunlan's trunk.And her clothes, hair, etc. are exactly the same as Qin Chunlan.

When it was time to start the live broadcast, Qin Chunlan took Shang Boran to Building 19 of Huating Villa.At this time, she would not have thought that there was a murderer hiding in the trunk, let alone that he would kill herself.

After arriving at the villa, putting on makeup and speaking to Shang Boran, Qin Chunlan was preparing for the live broadcast as normal.

As professional as she is, even if there is a power outage, she will continue to talk to Shang Boran.

It wasn't until she realized that the power hadn't come on after 7 minutes had passed, that she temporarily changed her lines, and then discussed with Shang Boran whether to check the switch.

Shang Boran's cell phone vibrated, making Qin Chunlan untie the rope on his body so that he could answer the call.Qin Chunlan did so.After untiing, Shang Boran took out the prepared syringe and stuck it into Qin Chunlan's arm to anesthetize her.

As for the murderer X, after Qin and Shang left, he climbed out of the trunk and waited in the garage.After the staff left, he went to the first floor through the indoor elevator and hid somewhere in the house.

Of course, he must have gone to the utility room on the way to make sure that Bai Xue and Cui Junjie's mobile phones were placed here.He also went to the kitchen and took a fruit knife as the murder weapon.

Later, seeing that the time was almost up, the murderer X operated the power outage through the mobile APP, waited for Bai Xue to leave, walked up to Cui Junjie, and killed him when his hands and feet were tied and he could not resist.

The murderer X then went to the third floor through the stairs.

At this time, Shang Boran had anesthetized Qin Chunlan.

Immediately afterwards, the murderer X and Shang Boran dragged Qin Chunlan to a place out of view of the camera.

After taking off the gloves and foot covers on his body and hiding them in a backpack or something, he used his mobile phone to light up the light to confirm that there was no blood on his body. The murderer X operated the APP to turn on the light, turn on the live audio and video, and finally pretended to be Qin Chunlan. Appearing in front of the camera, saying goodbye and downloading in front of tens of thousands of viewers.

After the live broadcast was over, he turned on his mobile phone and entered the live broadcast room. Bai Ling and Li Hai were still live broadcasting, but Bai Xue's side was broadcasting. It is estimated that there was a panic on the first floor.

At this time, no one will notice the murderer X and Shang Boran.

So the two of them took the unconscious Qin Chunlan to the underground garage through the indoor elevator.

Put Qin Chunlan in the trunk, the murderer X put on a hat and mask, disguised as Qin Chunlan, drove away with Shang Boran, and took him to the hospital at 11:10 p.m.

·

The time has gone to 02:30 in the morning, sitting in the apartment and looking out through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the financial street not far away is brightly lit, and the buildings in the Internet business park are always on.

This is a bustling city that never sleeps, and thousands of lights are like falling stars.

Now that Xu Ci was sitting by the window, the stars were reflected in his eyes.

Xu Ci looked at Qi Zang and said, "Through this method, they successfully killed Cui Junjie. After that, they must kill Qin Chunlan, otherwise Shang Boran will be exposed if she speaks and says that she was fainted halfway.

"Continuing to push down from this angle, it is easy to think why Shang Boran left the hospital halfway and why Qin Chunlan's death time was between 3 o'clock and 5 o'clock—they wanted to create the illusion that Qin Chunlan committed suicide.

"After the murderer X put Shang Boran in the hospital, he didn't pretend to be Qin Chunlan and go back to the community immediately, but went to the small river, and then she waited for Shang Boran there.

"As for why she insisted on waiting for Shang Boran, it's already very simple."

Qi Zang met Xu Ci's eyes and took his words. "Because the murderer was a woman. A woman of little strength."

There are woods around the creek, as well as large areas of domestic waste, as well as dumping sites for construction and demolition waste.Normal people want to cross these to reach the river, but they can't walk steadily and fall easily, let alone carry a person across it?

The murderer can't do this alone, she needs a helper, namely Shang Boran.

Shang Boran showed up at the hospital at 11:10, acting as if he had been sent back, just for show.

In fact, after he quietly left the hospital at 12 o'clock, he went to the vicinity of the small river and found the murderer X who parked the car there.

In this way, in the monitoring blind spot caused by the demolition, the murderer X and Shang Boran worked together to send Qin Chunlan, who was unconscious due to anesthesia, to the small river.

To prevent Qin Chunlan from waking up and running away, they probably tied her to a tree.

After finishing all this, Shang Boran returned to the hospital at 1:[-] in the morning, pretending nothing happened.

At the same time, the murderer X also continued to dress up as Qin Chunlan at around 1:[-], and drove her car back to the community.

Since the monitoring of the underground garage did not record any abnormalities, it is conceivable that the murderer X had already cleaned the trunk before driving back to the community, so as to avoid leaving any biological traces when he got into the garage for the first time.

When she returned to Qin Chunlan's home this time, she opened the door with Qin's key, and put anesthetics, knives, charcoal, etc. in her home, just to make everyone think that Qin Chunlan wanted to commit suicide.

She knew the police would find narcotics in her body.So she deliberately left the anesthetic at the scene, trying to keep some possibilities such as she wanted to give anesthesia first and then cut her wrists, but failed.

At 3 o'clock in the morning, the murderer X disguised himself as Qin Chunlan and left the house, went to the small river, and poured poisonous alcohol on her who was tied up, which unexpectedly caused her to choke to death.

Qin Chunlan must have received a very large dose of anesthesia.

So that she should not have woken up during this period.

After all, if she woke up, she would definitely struggle if she was trapped by the rope, so that there would be strangle marks on her body.But in fact, she didn't have restraint wounds on her body at all.

This is a double murder case.

Qin Chunlan was able to perfectly "suicide" between 3:5 am and [-]:[-] am, and there was no flaw in the timing.

After sorting out all the links, Qi Zang couldn't help but took Xu Ci's computer to take a closer look, and then he entered the live broadcast platform and clicked on a few anchors to watch.

"Honestly, I really think most people here look alike."

"That's true." Xu Ci said, "The ones who are really beautiful don't need to turn on the filter. For example, Bai Xue——"

"Excuse me, do you think Bai Xue is beautiful?"

"...Then why not?"

Qi Zang bit his back molars.

But no matter how unhappy he is, he is a big man, and he will never want to compete with a delicate little girl for being more beautiful, so he has to hold back his breath. "It's okay, Mr. Xie, you can continue."

Xu Ci said: "For a person like Bai Xue, the filter will actually be set very low, otherwise it will look exaggerated and weird - the eyes will be too big, the chin will be too narrow, close to the snake spirit in the Huluwa cartoon. Natural beauties must not use too large a filter.

"But Xiang Qin Chunlan, who is not in line with the public's aesthetics, can turn decay into magic with a filter.

"Disguise only exists in novels, of course the murderer X can't become exactly the same as Qin Chunlan with makeup, but he can be similar.

"Facing two similar faces, we humans can see the difference with the naked eye, but the filter is different. When the filter is turned on to the maximum, the program will present two similar faces with almost the same effect. Especially It was because Qin Chunlan's filter was customized."

Looking at Qi Zang, Xu Ci added: "When I was waiting for you just now, I called Bai Xue and checked again, Qin Chunlan's situation is even more special, she has a customized filter.

"Unlike Bai Xue who signed with an Internet celebrity company, Qin Chunlan signed the contract directly with the platform in her own name. She was very popular for a while, and many people were curious about what she looked like. The platform didn't dare to let her show her face directly. So I tried to ask the programmers under the banner to customize a special filter according to her face shape and facial features...

"This kind of filter is quite special, instead of simply enlarging people's eyes and narrowing their chin, it can present a predetermined and preset face.

"Of course, this technology will not be made just for Qin Chunlan alone. If it is successful, it can be promoted and widely used by multiple anchors."

"Then this is almost equivalent to changing the face of the AI ​​​​in real time." Qi Zang took over the conversation, "This is equivalent to saying that the programmer created a face, which can replace the face of the live broadcaster in real time, and make changes according to the expression of the live broadcaster. Make an expression."

Xu Ci smiled lightly. "Well. That's a better way to say it, and it's true."

"In this way, even if the murderer X looks very different from Qin Chunlan, she can be made into the same face by the custom filter. If she becomes similar to Qin Chunlan through makeup... there will be no flaws." Qi Zang said, "I will contact the platform tomorrow. See if it can be reversed. If so, there will be direct evidence."

Xu Ci shook his head. "Actually, I thought of this possibility before, so I asked Bai Xue. At the same time, I also asked a friend... Ah, he is the one who made this app. He is a good at mathematics for undergraduates and computers for graduate students. He is good at programming. .

"According to his feedback, reverse restoration should not be possible with the current technology. They just preset a facial feature so that it can change with the live broadcaster's face——

"But you can get in touch."

Qi Zang thought of something, and pulled out the picture drawn by the portraitist on his phone. "So, the person who appeared in front of Huang Dashan at that time was indeed the murderer X, not Qin Chunlan."

"Yes." Xu Ci nodded, "After all, a portrait is not a photo, and it cannot be exactly the same. Witnesses will lie and be misled... If the murderer deliberately takes advantage of this, the portrait drawn by the portrait artist can deceive people."

Taking out his mobile phone, Xu Ci found the photo of Qin Chunlan without makeup that Bai Xue had sent him.

Putting the photo in front of Qi Zang, Xu Ci said: "Actually, Qin Chunlan looks very distinctive, with wide-set eyes, single eyelids, drooping eyes, short, wide, and somewhat sunken nose, deep nasolabial folds, and thin lips. Long and flat... Through makeup, I can also change my facial features into this."

Looking at Qi Zang, Xu Ci pressed the tip of his nose with one hand, and stretched one corner of his mouth with the other.

Qi Zang almost couldn't help laughing, and quickly took it away after Xu Ci gave him a wink.

Xu Ci continued: "The shape of the facial features can be changed through makeup, glue, silicone pads, matching highlights and shadows... I extracted Qin Chunlan's features, made up according to her features, and then appeared in front of Huang Dashan. After two weeks, When he recalled me, he would not remember the specific appearance of the whole face, only these features.

"The portrait artist drew these features, and the policemen compared the photos with Qin Chunlan's and found that they matched... So they naturally thought that the person Huang Dashan saw was Qin Chunlan, but it was not."

Looking at Xu Ci, Qi Zang asked: "Why do you think she insisted on appearing in front of Huang Dashan? This is an unnecessary action."

Xu Ci said the same guess as Qi Zang: "Provocation, showing off her ability."

Picking up the Coke and taking another sip, Xu Ci said, "Actually, there is one detail that can prove this point."

"Which detail?" Qi Zang asked.

Xu Ci: "Switch."

Qi Zang quickly understood what he meant. "The switch between the live broadcast room on the second floor and the third floor."

Xu Ci nodded: "Actually, when facing a power outage, a normal person would not choose to check the switch immediately rationally, but would subconsciously press the switch a few times before speaking. Or from the perspective of the murderer, at least he cannot rule out this possibility. Especially When the murderer was still very careful, he would definitely not let this possibility spoil his actions...

"However, only the switch of Baixue's live broadcast location on the first floor was artificially destroyed. But neither the second nor the third floor.

"It doesn't affect the Bailing on the second floor. She and Li Hai chose to chat in the dark, and even told ghost stories, all because of their out-of-character. In fact, if they choose to press the switch, they can The lights come on, and the live stream continues.

"The problem is actually on the third floor." Xu Ci asked Qi Zang, "Is the switch in the live broadcast room on the third floor really not broken?"

Qi Zang shook his head. "No."

"The switch on the third floor is obviously not broken, but Qin Chunlan didn't try to touch it from the beginning to the end, so that he turned on the light...

"In the first 7 minutes of the power outage, she did not interrupt the live broadcast hastily and chose to continue performing with Shang Boran, which was due to her rigorous personality. But after turning off the audio and video, logically, she would try to press the switch a few times When it is dark, the first reaction is to press the switch. This is a human instinct. Qin Chunlan did not do this, and Shang Boran did not mention it. This is actually a suspicious point.

"The murderer is so strict. In order to avoid this doubt, she should actually break all the switches on the third floor and even the second floor like the first floor. Anyway, the lights can be controlled through the APP. The live broadcast is important first. The company is not in a hurry to fix it. The switch...but the murderer didn't do it.

"This is the flaw she deliberately left."

Xu Ci looked at Qi Zang and made a conclusion, "It's the same as her purpose of going to see Huang Dashan deliberately, and asking Huang Dashan to draw a portrait of Qin Chunlan in front of us through a portrait artist——

"Using this loophole, she is telling the police that even if you find out that Huang Dashan is her target, you have no way to trace her based on this line; she deliberately left a loophole because she is not afraid of you guessing her modus operandi , she was saying that even then you couldn't catch her...

"This is her mocking the police and showing off her skills."

At the end of the conversation, Xu Ci took Qi Zang's cell phone and looked at the portrait.

The facial features of the facial features in this portrait all point to Qin Chunlan.

But behind it lurks a cunning, terrifying soul.

Xu Ci seemed to see her mocking smile and undisguised malice through the painting, and also seemed to see the picture of her stabbing Cui Junjie with a knife.

Blood gushed out from Cui Junjie's heart, dyeing the whole screen red.

At this time, the cherry blossoms fell one by one, condensing into a scar inside the mouth.

In the end, Xu Ci saw that he stretched out his hands and tore off the scar, and then the whole blood-red world fell apart in front of him. He stood in a pool of blood, surrounded by a person's belly...

He seems to have fallen into a boundless hell.

"Mr. Xie? Xie Qiao! Xie Qiao! Little—"

The vivid cry finally pulled him out of hell, and Xu Ci woke up like a dream.Although it is summer, there is a layer of sweat on the back.

When consciousness returned, Xu Ci saw Qi Zang holding a piece of paper close to him.

"What?" Xu Ci subconsciously leaned back.

Qi Zang walked up to him and stood still, raised his hand and approached slowly, put it on his forehead, brushed up his broken hair, then handed over the paper with the other hand, and gently wiped the sweat on his forehead .

Immediately after the paper slid down, he helped Xu Ci gently wipe away the fine beads of sweat on the tip of his nose.

Qi Zang's Adam's apple moved up and down, and then he said in a low voice: "Should the air be lowered, it's very hot?"

Xu Ci shook his head instinctively.

Qi Zang asked again: "So did you think of something bad?"

"It's nothing." Xu Ci raised his head, and suddenly slammed into Qi Zang's eyes that didn't even blink, seemed to contain endless tenderness and affection.

Probably because the air conditioner has not turned on enough, and because Qi Zang is too close, the heat from his arms, neck, and even his chest can almost penetrate his skin...

Xu Ci subconsciously took half a step back, his eyes drooping. "It's okay. I just thought... the murderer is a woman with little strength, and most of them participated in the planning of the live broadcast, and she has the basic conditions to plan everything two weeks ago; she is very likely to be a makeup and hair artist, and her height is also framed... …

"The murderer is easy to find. The key is the decisive evidence. The murderer is so bold and confident, it must be because of...you, why are you laughing all of a sudden?"

Qi Zang smiled mischievously, and took another step towards Xu Ci. "The strategy of laughing at me for breaking the jar is quite effective."

Xu Ci: "?"

What Qi Zang was referring to was nothing more than being pushed by Xu Ci last time, and after finding out that he couldn't do anything if he didn't get in, he simply played a rogue and said that he wanted to be with him.

He stood at one end, and Xu Ci stood at the other. There seemed to be countless paths between the two of them, but no matter which one they took, it seemed to be a deadlock...

Since it's a stalemate anyway, it's better to break the rules completely.

Why should we take into account the rules, why do we have to take restricted roads?

Xu Ci set up so many twists and turns, he simply overturned all the rules and went directly to Xu Ci to express what he wanted.

Then Qi Zang found that this trick was very effective, at least every time it can make Xu Ci, who has [-] minds, stunned for a moment.

"No, Qi Zang, I'm talking about the case—"

"Yeah. The case... Mr. Xie said it very well. Are you considering becoming a policeman? It must be a loss for the police to lack you."

"Be serious, don't be joking." Xu Ci frowned.

Qi Zang directly rubbed his neatly combed hair with his hands.

Xu Ci: "...? Why?"

Qi Zang: "It was like that just now... Could it be hallucinations, a sudden bad mood or something?"

Xu Ci shook his head: "I'm fine."

"Okay, it's so late. Are you going to work tomorrow?"

Xu Ci nodded.

"Then go to bed first. Leave the rest to me. Don't worry about it."

"I……"

"Let's talk about it tomorrow."

"Then I'll take my leave."

Xu Ci turned around and walked towards the door, when his wrist was caught off guard.

"Huh?" Xu Ci turned his head and gave Qi Zang a surprised look.

Qi Zang: "It's so late, how late is it when you go back to Yishui District, [-] kilometers away? Didn't you just say you have to go to work? Just sleep here. I'll take you to the guest room."

"But--"

Qi Zang had a premonition that he would not be able to say Xu Ci.He can always find tricky angles to criticize himself or raise objections.

So if you can't say it, just don't say it.

Qi Zang forcefully grabbed Xu Ci's wrist and walked towards the guest room, thinking of something, he dragged Xu Ci back to his bedroom.

Opening the closet door, he rummaged for a while, found a pajamas and handed it to Xu Ci. "It's clean, I haven't worn it. You go take a shower first. I'll go after you wash."

Xu Ci was really stunned.

It's not that he is dissatisfied with Qi Zang's arrangement... He was shocked by the appearance of the pajamas.

The pajamas and pajamas are made of silk, which is very silky, with a uniform bright red background, on which are displayed numerous glittering gold ingots, silver ingots, and a hundred-yuan RMB pattern with a portrait of Grandpa Mao.

Qi Zang noticed something and quickly explained. "My mother calculated that I would lose money this year, so she ordered such a pajamas for me some time ago. I really can't wear it, so...

"Please don't mind, the silk one is quite comfortable to wear, and it has been washed.

"If you must mind, I have other pajamas, but I might wear them once or twice...

Xu Ci reluctantly held the pajamas and made a gesture of retracting his hands.

It seems that he agreed to stay and reluctantly accepted the pajamas.

"Before I came to you, I took a taxi to Huating Villa and drove my own car. I am really sleepy now. Fatigue driving is prone to problems, so, but..."

Hearing this, Qi Zang hurriedly praised: "Hey, Teacher Xie, it's really all right, how festive you are dressed! Red shows your skin white!"

Xu Ci: "..."

Half an hour later, Xu Ci came out of the bathroom wearing bright red pajamas that almost had "Money Qian Qian" reflected on it.

"I've finished washing...you go..."

When Qi Zang heard the movement, he turned his head immediately, and saw Xu Ci was dressed in bright red, his hair was wet and stuck to his face, and his face and neck, which were originally porcelain white, had been soaked in hot water and turned into a layer of pink.

Xu Ci had a good-looking face and excellent temperament, so that the gaudyness of the clothes was completely suppressed.Those red colors on his body are only good-looking, and it makes Xu Ci, who is clear and cold, lively and agile, as if those sufferings have never visited him.

Xu Ci asked him, "By the way, is there a hair dryer?"

Qi Zang was stunned, maintaining the posture of holding the Coke.

Xu Ci asked again. "hair dryer?"

After asking, Xu Ci wrapped a bath towel around his face in order to prevent Qi Zang from seeing the traces of removing wrinkle glue on his face.

"Oh oh oh, hair dryer." Qi Zang looked up and drank the Coke with ice in one gulp, still feeling hot, picked up the remote control and lowered the temperature by two degrees, and then started rummaging through the cabinet. "Let me look for it for you. Some are there. I just forgot where to put them."

"You should develop the habit of storing."

"How about you live in and help me change my habits?"

Xu Ci didn't answer.

Qi Zang just pretended to make him shy again, smiled without saying a word, and continued to look for things with his head down.

When he found the hair dryer and walked over to pass it to Xu Ci, Qi Zang realized that Xu Ci had returned to his cold and repulsive appearance.

"Hmm... what's the matter? Are you okay?" Realizing that something was wrong, Qi Zang asked cautiously.

"It's nothing." Xu Ci looked him up and down, "Last time you talked about your ex-girlfriend... How many girlfriends have you had over the years?"

"Ah?" Qi Zang was taken aback, "Why, why did you ask this all of a sudden?"

"I feel that you are quite glib. What's the matter? You have a lot of experience in dating? You don't have to fool little girls like this?"

Snatching the hair dryer from Qi Zang's hand, Xu Ci turned and left, "Officer Qi wants to be a slut, go find someone else, don't fool me for being an ignorant little girl."

Qi Zang: "..."
