The captain showed great enthusiasm when he heard that Ann called himself a private detective.
Specifically, they were kicked out
The captain was the largest on the ship, and it was difficult for anyone to come. He insisted that it was an accident. For an Yizhi's question about whether someone had an enemy with him, the captain also didn't shut up. Finally, he drove the three people back to the cabin angrily.
The captain seemed to know something, but he didn't want to say.
This is an Yizhi's conclusion. Now the three of them stay in an Yizhi's cabin, listening to the noise made by the sailors running around looking for the gunman, and discussing the clues they have obtained.
No way, they can't go out now. The captain sent two sailors to stand guard in front of their cabin. Even dinner was sent directly to the room, although it doesn't matter whether the players eat or not.
"The gunman is a male, 190 ~ 180 cm tall, wearing a black windbreaker and covered with a scarf on his face. Is that right?"
Qingfeng bazuka nodded. This is the image of the gunman she saw.
"No features? Like scars"
"No"
Ann grabbed his head. It was even more difficult to find the gunman based on his physical characteristics alone. There were at least hundreds of passengers on the ship. Even if half of them were men, there were dozens of suspects, not to mention a large number of sailors.
As for guns
I don't know the security check in this era, or there is no security check in this era?
Anyway, guns are easy to take on board. Each of the three players has guns. Besides, there is a rifle with acoustic emission full power ammunition and a full bag of detonators in the violin box beside Qingfeng bazuka. It is much easier for the gunman to take a gun on board than later generations.
"Who is the identity of the dead? You should be able to find something along this line?"
"There's no way. Look at the two door gods outside. They won't let us out at all. How can I have time to investigate?"
Speaking of it, I was really speechless. It doesn't matter if you don't ask questions. It's a pity that you send two people to guard the door and don't let us go out. I'm in first class!
The three were at a loss. Even if Holmes came in person, there was probably no way to prevent him from investigating. They had to catch the blind in situ.
"You still have a pocket watch? Why don't I?"
An Yi pointed out that he found his pocket watch from the scene. Tu Hongyu said strangely.
"The victim's, I thought it might be useful, so I took it away"
"Hey, hey, can you touch with such a big prick without damaging the fingerprint? I remember that fingerprints have been used in criminal investigation in this era."
"Pull it down. Even if there are fingerprints, can you get evidence? We don't have any tools. It's estimated that the system won't give clues that can be determined only by fingerprints."
"That's true"
If fingerprints are useful, the system will provide a set of tools to take fingerprints. Now they have nothing but their brains.
"It seems to have stopped. Turn the wind."
Mechanical watches are troublesome and need to wind up frequently, but some people like this kind of mechanical watch very much.
Ann reached out and turned the clockwork a few times before the second hand moved again.
"Just feel..."
"What's the matter?"
"When I just forwarded the note, it felt a little like changing the safe password"
"It's just winding up, isn't it?"
"Lend me a look"
He handed it to Qingfeng bazuka, who put his pocket watch on his ear and wound it. After listening for a while, he said:
"It's not quite right. There's a lightweight mechanical password structure. Usually, the forwarding strip is simply to provide power for the pocket watch, but it seems that what mechanism can be opened according to the specific switching method. Look carefully. There's a small mark here."
She pointed to the knob and said that there was indeed a very small red mark on it.
As for what the password is, there's nothing to do. There's no hint about the password on the pocket watch. The only clue is that R & R has two letters. An Yizhi tries to put the letters into the dial. He winds up twice in his position and still can't open any mechanism.
"If you can open it, there will be a ghost. I want to see how you put 26 letters into 12 scales. In other words, you still can't tell whether there are 24 or 26 English letters?"
An Yizhi: "... People are hard to dismantle"
As a friend who grew up together, Tu Hongyu obviously knows that an Yizhi's biggest weakness is his poor English
He shook hard for a few times and didn't hear anything in the pocket watch. Anyway, he couldn't open it for the time being, so he had to put the pocket watch aside first.
"There are three hours before the branch mission fails. I don't think we'll be locked up in the room all the time."
Pull out the menu time and look, an pointed.
"Who knows, why is the branch task activated?"
Breeze bazuka asked.
"Maybe what happened on board has nothing to do with the main line, or it can be done or not, but I always think that if this branch line can be completed, it will be very helpful to the main line."
Tu Hongyu also agrees with an Yizhi. He is also a veteran of internal testing. In contrast, although Qingfeng bazuka is also an internal testing player, he has not completely understood the copy mechanism so far.
"What are we doing now, waiting?"
"Probably not."
An touched his chin and said:
"I guess something will happen soon..."
Without speaking, he heard a dull noise, which sounded like someone smashing his fist against the wall.
The sound came from the cabin on the left, but it seemed far away and could not be heard clearly.
Qingfeng bazuka's face immediately became dignified. She said:
"It was gunfire."
Hearing what she said, an Yizhi had to believe that the sister's familiarity with guns and weapons could throw herself a few blocks away.
"Got the gunman?"
"It shouldn't be. If you were a gunman, wouldn't you resist if you were caught? In case of resistance, you can't shoot only once."
The crowd held their breath and waited for a while. There were no more gunshots. They could only hear the sound of many people running around in the corridor outside the door.
"What happened?"
It must be faster to stay in the room and guess than to ask people directly. Ann pointed to opening the door and asked the two sailors standing guard at the door.
"I don't know, sir. It seems that someone shot."
Ann turned her eyes and was about to close the door when she saw the captain and some sailors coming this way.
"Mr. an Yizhi"
He took off his hat, showed his half bald head, and said with some restraint:
"I need your help..."
–‐‐——–‐‐——
"So, who was the first to discover?"
Three players and the captain came to the cabin at the end of the corridor. On the bed in the room, there was a man who was shot in the head, shot from the temple, and held the murder weapon in his hand. It looked like suicide.
The dead man an Yizhi also saw him. He was one of the three people sitting at the table next to them, the thin drug addict.
Two lives were lost on the ship's maiden voyage, which is still the property of guests, which will greatly affect the ship's business income. After all, no one wants to take a ship with frequent homicides. In case some journalists who fear that the world will not be chaotic burst out the alarmist title of "curse ship", the shipping company behind the blue eyed princess would spit blood, Naturally, the captain of the ship will not be better.
No wonder the captain hurried to find an Yizhi. He hoped that an Yizhi could find out the truth. At least catching the murderer could save a lot of lost impressions.
"It's me, Mr. an Yizhi"
The captain said:
"I found out that the old gentleman's companion who died unfortunately before lived in this cabin. As the captain, I have the obligation to convey the news of his death to his companion. I took some gifts and the first mate and the second mate to visit them. As soon as I came to the door, I heard a gunshot inside, so we broke the door. The next situation is as you can see."
Ann looked at the door. The door lock had been completely broken. It can be seen that the captain was right. The door was really closed when they came.
If it's just like this, you don't need to find an. Everyone will think it's an unfortunate suicide. However, the room is very messy and there are obvious signs of fighting, so it can't be connected with suicide.
"Has anyone entered the room before we came except you, Mr. captain?"
"No"
The captain looked at the sailor behind him, who shook his head.
"I arranged two people to take care of the scene immediately after I found the body. They didn't see anyone in and out."
"Killing in the secret room... It's kind of interesting."
He muttered and looked at Qingfeng bazuka and Tu Hongyu who examined the body. The former said:
"The murder weapon was indeed the pistol in the victim's hand, and the bullet hole was consistent with the caliber of the pistol. As for whether it was the bullet fired by the gun, it needs to take out the bullet head and conduct further inspection."
Further inspection is impossible. They have no tools at all. Besides, no one knows how to take the warhead out of their mind. It's disgusting to force it.
"All I can tell is that he didn't commit suicide."
Tu Hongyu said:
"Look at his wound. There is no burn mark on his temple. It means that the muzzle of the gun is far from his head. A suicidal person won't do this. There must be burn on his wound."
Not only this clue, but also the signs of fighting around him, we can see that there must be another person who had a dispute with him at that time.
"Can you check the traces of drugs?"
"Do you really think I'm a doctor..."
"Gee, useless Watson"
Tu Hongyu: "
"If there were traces of drugs, I found a lot of pinholes in his arm."
Qingfeng bazuka doesn't look like a girl at all. She prickly picked up the dead man's arm and showed it to the public:
"After a little counting, there are up to seven or eight pinholes, not counting the old pinholes that have been grown. The other hand is less than the left hand, but there are also many."
"Is that his suitcase? Then don't just stand around and turn around, go and turn over"
An pointed and shrugged. He just wanted to be lazy. Tu Hongyu found him.
This is a portable suitcase slightly larger than the briefcase. The suitcase is unlocked and can be opened easily.
"This guy is really a drug addict"
I opened my clothes and put a set of syringes and several bottles of translucent liquid under the suitcase. It is estimated that it is not a good thing. He opened it, touched it, smelled it a little, and found that the liquid inside had a strong sweet smell.
This thing is morphine.
