Have space to eat and drink [End Times]

If it was really a family member who committed the crime, Wen Tonghui, who was the last to leave the house, seemed the most suspicious.But everyone beat them to death and didn't believe that Wen Tonghui would do such a thing.With his short-sighted character, if he really did such a thing, he would definitely not be so calm at dinner yesterday.

"Huihui, didn't the thief come when you went out yesterday?" Wen Tongxue asked him.

"No!" Wen Tonghui scratched his head, wondering if there was anything unusual.But after thinking about it, I couldn't come up with anything.

"Which of you came to this room yesterday?" Lin Zhiheng interjected.

Long Shougang recalled: "Yesterday afternoon, we all went to this room to play cards and mahjong. Because we had to watch the night, grandparents rested in the house in the afternoon. Sister Tian, ​​Brother Kun, Xiaoxue and Jinxue played mahjong in the living room. Huihui, Xusheng took Yanyan to play with model airplanes. Parents and aunt were resting in the house. Brother Gan and I went to book a private room in the hotel, and then we came back to play cards with Brother Kun and Xiaoxue."

"What about when you leave and when you come back after dinner?"

"When we were leaving..." Long Shougang desperately recalled, "Brother Gan saw that it was almost six o'clock, so he said it was time to go to dinner, and then Brother Gan and Brother Kun went downstairs and drove over to wait for us. A few of us took turns to go to the toilet. Then we went downstairs one after another. After going downstairs, Huihui found that he forgot to wear his hat, so he went upstairs to get it. Then he went down and went to the restaurant. When we came back, we came back together. It was still my first house, and I found that there was wind in the house, so I went to have a look, only to find that there was a hole in the window of my grandfather’s house, and the grapes were gone.”

"Maybe I guessed wrong." Wen Tongxue's face was flushed with cold, "Even if someone smashed the window from the house, it may not necessarily be from our family."

"Does anyone else have the key to your house?" Shen Cheng asked suddenly.

"Ah, no more," Wen Tongxue said in a low voice, "To open the door of our house, we need a key and a password at the same time. But it is impossible for others to have these two things at the same time."

Long Jinggan patted his sister's head to comfort her, and then said: "Can you still remember the order in which you left the room before going to the restaurant?"

"I must be the last one." Wen Tonghui said dejectedly.

"It's definitely not you," Wen Tongxue patted his younger brother's head, "Just recall it from the beginning and see if there are any clues."

Tian Yao first said: "Yesterday, Xiaoxu and I were the first to leave, taking Yanyan with us."

Long Shougang: "Afterwards, I went out with my parents and my aunt. My mother wanted to go to the toilet, but there were too many people, so she went downstairs, which is my aunt's room. My aunt accompanied my mother to the toilet. Me and my dad waited in the hall for a while - but it has nothing to do with the grapes being stolen."

Wen Tonghui: "Then my sister and brother Jinxue accompanied my grandma and grandpa downstairs. However, when my grandma was going out, she suddenly felt sick to her stomach and wanted to go back to the toilet. Brother Jinxue accompanied her to go to the toilet. By the way Add some water to the water tank in the toilet. Because Brother Jinxue has the ability of the water system, and water is very expensive now, so he now makes a lot of water for the whole family every day. I went downstairs with my sister and grandpa first, but After I went downstairs, I found that I forgot to wear my hat, and it was so cold yesterday, so I had to go up to get it. On the stairs, I ran into grandma and brother Jinxue again. After I took the hat, I went downstairs."

"Did you hear anything when you came back?" Long Jingqian asked him again.

"Nothing." Wen Tonghui desperately recalled, "Nothing."

Everyone fell silent.

Things have reached an impasse here.

If Wen Tonghui hadn't lied, it wouldn't have been the family members who committed the crime.Many people breathed a sigh of relief.But things should not be that simple.

If it wasn't for the family members who committed the crime, all the doors and windows in the house would be intact except for the glass.How could that person sneak into the house without a sound?He smashed the glass to disguise the scene, what was he trying to cover up?

Wen Tonghui's suspicion should be the biggest so far.However, Wen Tonghui's consistent character makes it hard to imagine that he did this.

Wen Tonghui also had the consciousness that he was the biggest suspect, and stood aside honestly, asking and answering whatever he asked.

It would be great if you could call the police. The police will definitely be better at solving cases than these people.However, the police at the base are not very in charge now, and they can't handle many murder cases, let alone theft cases.And the most important thing is that if such a heaven-defying thing like mutated grapes is exposed to the base officials, I don't know how much trouble will be waiting for me.

However, the theft of grapes already shows that its existence may have been known to outsiders.This incident weighed heavily on everyone's hearts.Losing a life-saving treasure may also cause trouble.

When everyone was silent, Lin Zhiheng was carefully looking at the window sill.Suddenly, a detail caught his attention.

Because the weather was too cold, they stuffed rags and discarded newspapers into the windows to prevent the cold wind from entering.

"When was your newspaper published?" Lin Zhiheng asked.

"Newspaper?" Long Shougang thought for a while, "I just changed it two days ago. Isn't it just a new year, so I cleaned it all up."

Lin Zhiheng: "Will you spray water on the windowsill?"

"?" Long Shougang had a question mark on his face, "Why did we spray water on the window sill?"

Lin Zhiheng: "Look at the newspapers you put on the window."

Everyone came together.The handwriting on the newspaper was blurred, and the paper was also wrinkled, which was obviously the trace of drying after being wet by water.

"Maybe my hands were wet when I stuffed it?" Long Shougang tried to recall.

Lin Zhiheng stretched out his slender fingers and pointed to the newspaper: "The entire window frame, the newspaper stuffed on the right side is normal, while the writing on the left side is blurred, obviously soaked in water. And the hole where the window was smashed is on the left side. Facing the location of the soaked newspaper."

"Ah?" The Long family felt their scalps go numb, but they still didn't quite understand, "But what does this mean?"

He carefully looked at the dust on the window. Near the hole, there were faint water marks on the window.

A guess has already formed in Lin Zhiheng's mind.But he still has a doubt that has not been answered.

"Who glued the lanterns back then?" Lin Zhiheng asked.

Long Shougang: "It's grandma and Xiaoxue."

"Xiaoxue, has anyone else touched this strip?" Lin Zhiheng asked again.Although the lantern has been blown to the ground by the wind

"Hmm..." Wen Tongxue thought for a while, "No, it was grandma holding the lantern and I posted it."

Lin Zhiheng: "There should only be your fingerprints on it, right?"

Wen Tongxue nodded: "It should be, after all, no one else has touched the tape."

Lin Zhiheng moved closer to the adhesive strip, and most of the clear fingerprints stained with dust were printed on the adhesive strip.

"Little Xue, stretch out your index finger."

Wen Tongxue stretched out his index finger without knowing why.

"This is not your fingerprint." Lin Zhiheng was very sure, "Your fingers are not that big."

Everyone was shocked at once.

"Zhiheng," Grandpa Long came over, "You mean the fingerprints belonged to the thief?"

Lin Zhiheng pursed his lips: "This is just a guess. After all, Xiaoxue put on the tape, but there were fingerprints that did not belong to Xiaoxue on it, and this fingerprint was still on the inside of the tape. The fingerprints on it could only be from the tape. The time between when the tape was removed and when the strip was applied to the window."

Wen Tongxue: "And I remember that I tore off a long piece of adhesive tape, much longer than the one on the window now."

"But, if it was really left by the thief, why did the thief stick the lantern?" Long Shougang was confused.

"Of course it is to create an alibi for myself." After all, it is someone else's family. If there is no conclusive evidence, relying on guesswork and reasoning alone will not only fail to catch the thief, but may also cause trouble among the Long family, as well as between the Shen family and the Long family. Therefore, Lin Zhiheng intends to find evidence first, and then tell them his own speculation, "Do you have ink pads?"

Wen Tonghui: "Ah yes! The original owner of our house liked calligraphy, and now there are a lot of ink pads and paints in the house."

Feng Jinxue snatched the words: "I'll go get it."

Lin Zhiheng smiled meaningfully, and looked at Long Jinyan: "Can I trouble Auntie to go down and get the ink pad back?"

"Okay." Long Jinyan nodded, Lin Zhiheng's words indicated that the people living in their house were suspected.She felt a little heavy in her heart.

After fetching ink pads and paper, Lin Zhiheng closed the door.

"Now, please come one by one and print your fingerprints on the paper. Grandpa Long and Grandma Long, please sit down and rest for a while, and you will have an answer in a while."

But Grandpa Long didn't go to sit down, but came over wearing reading glasses and printed the first fingerprints first.

"My old man is here to say something first." Grandpa Long sat on the edge of the table. "If it is really someone from our family who did it, let's not be impulsive. We must figure out the cause and effect. If anything happens, none of us should run away." .”

"Okay." Everyone responded.My heart is very heavy.

Lin Zhiheng wrote the words "Grandpa Long" on the fingerprint with a pen.Shen Cheng took it and hung it on the table.

Grandma Long also printed her fingerprints trembling.

Then Wen Tonghui fought for the third one to have his fingerprints printed to prove his innocence.

Long Jingqian and Long Shougang pressed their fingerprints.Then there are Tian Yao, Long Jingkun... Even Tian Yao wanted to give Yanyan a fingerprint, but was stopped by everyone, this kind of paint would be harmful to the child's body.

"One, two, three... eleven, twelve." Lin Zhiheng counted, "Twelve fingerprints, and one person didn't press them."

"Who is it?" Long Shougang leaned closer to the paper with fingerprints on it, "who hasn't pressed it yet? Now there are... grandpa, grandma, brother-in-law, aunt, Xiaoxue..."

Where no one noticed, one hand trembled. Due to nervousness, he quickly swallowed his saliva, his heart pounding.

A trembling hand held the doorknob, and quietly opened the door a crack...

"Ah! Run away!" Wen Tonghui shouted.

"Stop!" Long Shougang shouted, and a group of people rushed out quickly.
