The Underworld Detective

Chapter 350: The Slow Clock

Huang Xiaotao and I stayed in the kitchen to continue our investigation. A few minutes later, Huang Xiaotao walked in and laughed: "Song Yang, you're wrong this time! ”

She had a photograph in her hand, taken by the hostess in the living room, and a fruit knife, the one with the murder weapon.

Huang Xiaotao said: "I found this in the album. Looks like your nose is broken. The murder weapon is the real fruit knife! ”

I stared at the photo and said, "But there were apples in the fruit tray! ”

Huang Xiao Peach shook his head: “It doesn't matter. What matters is that it is a fruit knife. Generally speaking, the knife at home is not worthless, especially the knife that cuts fruit. ”

I was silent for a moment. Huang Xiaotao and I were disputing each other's views. The end of this thought was whether Ting was the murderer or not. Now she did indeed bring me into the army.

Sun Bingxin suddenly shouted. I thought she'd found something. What I didn't expect to say was: "I used to have this set of knives at home. They were redeemed for points during Wanda Supermarket Festival. It's hard to buy! ”

Huang Xiaotao was so proud: “There's nothing to say! After all, whether the murder weapon is this fruit knife or not, the fingerprints on it do belong to Ding. ”

I was a little dizzy when I thought about it, and I said I was going to the balcony to get some air.

As I walked to the balcony, I noticed the window across the street pulling the curtains and nothing on the balcony. This neighborhood is a nice neighborhood and there are basically no vacant houses, which makes me a little suspicious.

Huang Xiaotao came over and patted me on the shoulder: "Song Yang, this is the sixth floor! Even if, as you said, it was a manslaughter, and the neighbors soon discovered something abnormal after it happened, how would the killer escape? ”

I frowned: “When someone left home at 8: 00, the neighbor noticed the anomaly at 8: 10, and the killer had 10 minutes. ”

Huang Xiaotao pointed downstairs: “See that parking lot over there? There was an old man in the parking lot who was watching a TV show and his face was in this direction. His confession said that no one had ever been down in the building between 8: 00 and 8: 30. ”

Huang Xiaotao gave me another problem, I was in the silence room, next door came a conversation between a man and a woman ——

“Unfortunately, I was ten minutes late for work today and my boss withheld my money! ”

“I told you to leave early, you had to listen. ”

“I didn't know I was out at 7: 30 as usual, and there were no traffic jams on the road, damn it! ”

As soon as I heard this, I got excited. Ten minutes is a key question in this case. My name is Huang Xiaotao, and I asked her: "Is this the case reported by the family? ”

Huang Xiaotao nodded: “Yes! ”

“Let's go and pay a visit!” I called.

And when I came out, I looked at the house type, and this is the floor, and there were four of them, two of them on the left and two on the right, and the middle was the elevator. The left and right houses are very far apart, that is, only the next door can hear the movement in this room.

Huang Xiaotao was about to knock on the door, and I said wait, then looked at the keyhole for half a day.

Huang Xiaotao laughed: “What are you looking at? Do you still suspect the neighbors won't make it? ”

I coldly said, "There are signs of prying, and it's new! ”

Huang Xiaotao stunned for a moment: “What does that mean? Maybe their family has recently been robbed. ”

I can already see a clear vein, just when I heard that conversation, and saw this keyhole, I can already assert with all my heart that Ting is definitely not the murderer!

We knocked on the door, and the mistress saw us, and she was surprised, “Officer, are we still on the case? What can I do for you? ”

I said, "Ask me one thing. Is your clock right? ”

The mistress blurred: "Yes, I followed the TV! ”

I looked at the phone: "It's 13: 46. What time is your house? ”

The mistress went in to take a look and touched her head when she came out: “Strange, my clock is slow, it's 13: 36! ”

I smiled, "Thanks! ”

The mistress closed the door after saying a few kind words.

From the look on Huang Xiaotao's face, she seemed to have realized something, and I asked, "Where did you get it at the three points last night? Eight o'clock Ting left the house, at eight o'clock the neighbor found the anomaly, and at eight thirty o'clock Ting returned. ”

Huang Xiaotao replied: "At 8 o'clock, Ting and his neighbors agreed. At 8 o'clock, it was the neighbor's statement. At 8: 30, everyone agreed. Many people were shocked because of the murder. ”

I yelled, "That's right! Here's the case: Earlier yesterday, the killer entered the neighbor's house and slowed down his clock. At 8 o'clock, Ding left the house, when the neighbor's house was 7: 50, the murderer immediately entered Ding's house, killed Ding's wife, and then slammed the door. It was exactly 8: 10, which is exactly 8: 00 in the neighbor's house. At 8: 10, in fact, at 8: 20, the neighbor discovered an anomaly and called Ting. It took him 10 minutes to rush back, but it was 8: 30 when he arrived home, so he had a perfect answer. Why did Ting go to the small park for 10 minutes and come back for 20 minutes? ”

Sun Bing's heart knotted: “It's complicated! ”

I shook my finger: “It's not complicated, the simple understanding is that the neighbor heard Ding slam the door and go, in fact, the killer created the illusion! ”

Huang Xiaotao frowned: “Why don't you go quietly after killing someone and making such a big move? ”

I sneered, "Naturally, it's to blame! ”

Huang Xiaotao suddenly asked a question: "No, the parking master said that no one had been down between 8: 00 and 8: 30. ”

“This is a very good problem. Just give me a minute! ”

I quickly went downstairs, picked up my coroner's umbrella and came back, and when the elevator arrived on this floor, I called them in, and they came in indistinctly. I pressed directly on the top floor, and when I got to the top floor, I said, "You can move from the roof to the other units in parallel! ”

I pushed open the door to the roof, and the sun came in, and I pulled up the coroner's umbrella, and there was a footprint on the steps.

The footprint continues to stretch forward, which is 39 yards in size, and the footprint is clear. Huang Xiaotao took a photo with his phone, and finally the footprint came to another unit and walked on.

With the killer's cautious character, he certainly won't be able to take the elevator, and there is no need for an examination on the middle floor. First, there is no sunshine, and secondly, people come and go and destroy it long ago.

So far, I have described a clear outline of the crime. When Ding and his wife argued, the murderer hid in the upper corridor. After Ding went out, he entered Ding's house, killed Ding's wife and fled from the roof.

Sun Bingxin clapped his hands: “Brother Song Yang was too powerful, and the case was overturned. ”

Huang Xiaotao said: "Wait, I just sent a picture to the station! ”

She handed over her phone and repeatedly switched between the two photographs, one of which was Ding's shoe print, one of which had just been taken, and two of which were actually identical. More than unanimous? Everyone walks with subtle differences in stress points, some behind the center of gravity and others like to lift their feet.

By comparing these two sets of footprints, even I have to admit, this was left by the same person.

Huang Xiaotao said: “The killer's criminal technique was indeed smart, but his shoe prints betrayed him. He was a certain Ding himself. After leaving at 8: 00, he quickly returned and killed his wife. ”

I looked at Huang Xiaotao with a smile: "And then I blamed myself? ”

Huang Xiaotao was interrogated at once. If Ting was so smart, he would be caught immediately?

I gave the answer: "The footprints belong to another person, but this person perfectly cloned Ding's walking habit! ”
