Chapter 182

The light was so bright that everyone else saw Eugene's body.

Mrs. munston made a sharp cry, and the faces of the others were not good-looking. It was hard to believe that Eugene, who was still talking to you a second ago, was stabbed to death in the dark.

At this moment, an Yizhi, who had already prepared in his heart, paid attention to the expressions of the rest of the people, more or less shocked and frightened.

The secret way was really not so simple. It was impossible to observe who was the murderer among them from the expression.

[main task update: know the truth]

The main task has also been updated in time.

"Be quiet!"

As soon as he saw the main task update, the players immediately got excited. Tu Hongyu shouted to calm the people down.

"I'm a policeman. Please stay away from Mr. Eugene to prevent damage to the scene."

Then they remembered that among the guests were a Scotland Yard policeman and a private detective.

While Tu Hongyu was stabilizing the situation, an didn't idle a finger.

He went up to Eugene and tested his pulse with his hand.

"How's it going?"

"He's dead. There's no pulse at all."

An pointed to the body. The sharp knife was inserted from the vest and went straight through the heart. The big pool of viscous blood was seeping out, leaving a shocking pool of traces.

"I can see. Say something I don't know."

"Within 20 hours of death, the nasal fibrous hair of the body will continue to move to protect the respiratory tract."

“……”

"You said let me say something you don't know"

As he dealt with Tu Hongyu, an Yizhi squatted down and continued to check Eugene's body.

His eyes were closed and his nose was slightly red. It seemed that he hit his nose when he just fell down. Breathing is natural, and there seems to be no other scars on the body.

The conditions are limited. At present, there are only such clues. If you want more details, you must find a professional forensic autopsy.

Speaking of forensics, Ann had a flash of inspiration.

Isn't there a former doctor present?

"Mr. Hammill, can you help me examine the body?"

"Me?"

Hammill pointed to his nose.

"Yes, as a former surgeon, you should have no problem examining the body."

"Wait, isn't he a stockbroker? How can he contact the doctor?"

Monson questioned.

"I used to be a surgeon. Then something happened and I resigned and became a stockbroker... How do you know, Mr. an?"

Really!

The NPCs looked at an in surprise, and the latter showed an unfathomable expression:

"Nothing, just a simple observation"

I have to say that his original identity of breaking hamir has increased people's confidence in an Yizhi. At least the private detective seems to have two brushes.

"Sorry, the fuse is burnt out. It took a little more time to replace it... How... Master!"

At this time, the old housekeeper who took off his raincoat also saw Eugene lying on the ground. He was about to rush over and was stopped by Tu Hongyu.

"Mr. Eugene has been murdered just now."

An pointed and thought:

"Call all the servants to the restaurant. I need everyone present."

"OK, OK, I'll go right away"

The old housekeeper walked away in vain. Obviously, Eugene's death brought him a great shock.

Hamir is examining the body. An Yi instructs Tu Hongyu to watch. He turns around Eugene's body to search for more clues.

The biggest doubt about the incident is how the murderer stabbed Eugene in the back? It's a dark place. It's not easy to find the location of the heart from the back. If he used the light of lightning to identify the position, he should have noticed that an Yizhi around him. However, until Eugene screamed, an Yizhi didn't see anyone around Eugene.

"Mr. ANN, we're all here"

The old housekeeper said and brought three people.

A man and two women, in addition to the two servants who had met before, one of them was wearing a cook's hat. She should be the cook in charge of the dinner just now.

"Tell me your name and where you were when the power went out."

The three servants looked at Eugene's body tremblingly, and then replied:

"My name is mark. I was washing dishes in the kitchen with Mary when the power went out."

The maid next to the man nodded to prove that he was right.

"I'm in the kitchen, too. I'm counting the ingredients and planning to prepare breakfast for my host tomorrow. My name is olive."

The woman dressed up by the cook looked the most nervous. At first glance, she looked suspicious, but an Yizhi followed, even if she understood what was going on.

"Mr. an, this knife as a murder weapon is a special bone removal knife for the kitchen."

Hammill's almost done, he said.

No wonder the chef is most nervous. The murder weapon was originally placed where she can get it. Naturally, she is the most suspicious here.

"Aha! The killer has leaked!"

"No! Not me! The knife disappeared in the morning!"

Hearing Mr. munston's words, the cook explained in panic:

"The housekeeper knows that the bone removal knife is missing. I told the housekeeper at the first time. I really didn't do it!"

Seeing the people's eyes moving, the housekeeper nodded:

"The knife is really missing. Olive mentioned it to me this morning."

"That doesn't mean the killer wasn't her. Can you hide the knife yourself?"

Munston didn't want to give up yet. He said:

"Hello! You, mark? Are you sure olive was with you at the time of the crime?"

"No, I mean, no, sir"

Carl swallowed the waterway:

"Olive was in the storeroom under the kitchen and wasn't with us."

"There's only one entrance to the storeroom?"

An Yi asked the old housekeeper, who replied:

"There are two, one in the kitchen and one outside"

"That's right! It's her. The only person here without an alibi is her."

"Oh, no, sir, not me, really not me"

From the point of view of alibi, munston's guess is not much wrong. The only crime condition here is chef olive who can pick up the blade freely, and she also has the opportunity to commit a crime. She sneaks in with a knife while the two servants are washing the dishes, and then sneaks back after killing people.

However, this reasoning has a fatal disadvantage.

"Housekeeper, where is the exit of the storeroom? Be specific"

"Outside, sir, exactly outside the wall at the end of the corridor on your left"

"You mean the other exit is outside, right?"

"Yes"

Glancing at Eugene's body again, Ann pointed:

"She's not the murderer, at least there's no evidence so far."

"How... Impossible! If she wasn't the murderer, who would it be?"

"Can it be an external person?"

Said Charles, who had been silent.

An Yizhi shook his head:

"Look at the old housekeeper's feet"

The crowd looked over and saw a pool of wet mud marks and water stains:

"It's raining heavily outside. Anyone passing by outside can't keep their feet dry. Look around Mr. Eugene's body. There are no stains, which shows that the murderer has been hiding indoors."

"You... Mean?"

The old housekeeper hesitated:

"Is the prisoner among the guests?"

"Yes, of course, including the three servants"

"Are you kidding? Do you know who I am? How dare you treat me as a prisoner!"

Mr. munston jumped angrily. He said loudly:

"I can make you and your police children disappear from England forever in a word!"

"Really?"

Ann pointed out his pistol and pointed it at Monson. He had already seen that the upstart who had nothing to do was unhappy:

"You dead fat pig, if you talk nonsense again, I'll let you disappear now"

“……”

As soon as they saw Ann pointing out the pistol, they were in a panic.

"Mr. ANN, please don't be impulsive. Mr. munston was just unintentional."

The old housekeeper quickly advised.

"Don't worry, I won't be impulsive. I just want to find the truth and need your cooperation."

He took the gun back into his pocket and said to the old housekeeper:

"Is there a phone here?"

"Well, the area is remote, not yet"

Sure enough, there is no telephone. In this case, even if there is a telephone, 80% of them can't get through.

"Since there is no telephone, where does the electricity come from?"

"The owner bought a number of diesel generators, which are enough to maintain daily operation."

With regard to electricity, an Yizhi just asked casually. Then he looked at TU Hongyu, who also shook his head to show that there was no abnormality during Hamil's autopsy.

"Housekeeper, are there any vacant rooms nearby?"

"Yes, there is a clean guest room on the second floor on your right..."

"Excuse me, by the way, please look after Mr. Eugene's body and don't let anyone else near."

"Wait, are you going to interrogate us?"

Munston said dissatisfied again:

"A detective has no right to interrogate anyone"

"He didn't, but I did."

Tu Hongyu took out his police officer's card:

"There has just been a murder here. The prisoners are in the crowd. I have the right to interrogate all suspects."

What else did munston want to say? Ann interrupted him with a finger:

"Although I don't know what business you do, Mr. munston, of course your business can't rely on you alone. I don't think your business partners want to do business with a person suspected of murder. Wouldn't it be better to get rid of the suspicion if you're really not a criminal?"

After a little hesitation, munston said:

"Well, I'm willing to cooperate"

The biggest prick is soft, and others have no opinion. Anyway, it's a terrible thing for the murderer to hide around him. Finding the murderer early can also reassure others.

"Please, Mr. munston"

"Hum"

With a hum, munston went to the empty room mentioned by the Housekeeper on the second floor, followed by an Yizhi and Tu Hongyu.

"Do you have a goal?"

"Not yet"

On the way, two players whispered.

"I think the doctor is suspicious. Only he knows the structure of the human body best."

"It's too early to make a final decision. Let's listen to their testimony first."

Not only the doctor, but Charles who came in later was also suspicious, but from the position, the munstons closest to Eugene were easier to start. In addition, the suspects of the three servants were not cleared. The male servant and the female servant said they were washing dishes in the kitchen, but no one except them could prove that there was also the possibility of shielding each other.

Now the evidence is not perfect, and any preconceived subjective assumptions will affect the subsequent judgment. Therefore, an Yizhi tries to put his mind flat and look at this matter as rationally as possible.
