Chapter 355

The captain announced on the ship's radio not long ago that they had caught the prisoner of the shooting. Please rest assured. All the sailors were secretly mobilized. Except for those who could not leave some key positions, others were looking for guns and clothes used by the gunmen everywhere in the cabin.

In this case, a man slipped into the laundry at the bottom of the cabin. He carefully found a pistol, a windbreaker and a scarf from a large number of clothes that had not been sorted and squeezed due to the shooting.

Just about to go out, the light was bright. Three players came in with the captain and several sailors.

"Mr. Hughes, you've come to pick up something."

"Mr. an Yizhi, I just wanted to send it to you. These are the things used by the gunman. I didn't expect you to find them here."

Even if he was blocked, the second officer was still very calm. He seemed to be telling the truth.

Believe you, there's a ghost!

"Mr Hughes, aren't you going to plead guilty?"

"Plead guilty? What? Do you think I did it?"

"Don't plead guilty. Well, let me start from the beginning."

Ignoring Hughes' explanation, an Yi pointed to his own way of opening the mouth gun mode of talking and forcing. This is also his favorite link. He solved a puzzle and didn't say it to others. He always felt that he didn't have fun.

"The two people who died on board have something to do with you... Don't be busy denying it, let's start with the first incident."

He looked Hughes in the eye and said:

"In everyone's eyes, the gunman's target is the captain. Even the captain himself thinks so. He has a good reason. It's inconvenient to say this reason. But only you, the captain and the captain's wife know this reason, and you just take advantage of it to make the captain think the gunman is an enemy for revenge, but you don't know... The one you want to play died a month ago."

"Mr. an Yizhi, I don't understand..."

"No, you know, you just don't know that he's dead. Your goal from the beginning was not the captain, but the old gentleman sitting under the chandelier. Let me show you some evidence first."

Taking out the broken lock of the chandelier from the paper bag, he said:

"There are obvious signs of damage with a hacksaw on it, indicating that the murderer was ready to let the chandelier fall from the beginning, and the captain told me that the crew had cleaned and arranged the banquet hall the day before sailing. When we went back to the room at night, because there were many props for cleaning, such as ladders, we didn't take them back immediately. You did it secretly at that time."

"Bullshit! I was drinking and chatting with the chief mate that night"

"But you left half an hour on the way, didn't you? The chief officer's testimony mentioned this. You lied about diarrhea, so the chief officer didn't suspect."

"I did leave for half an hour, but it doesn't prove that I'm the murderer."

"Really not. Don't worry. Let's continue to deduce."

An Yizhi's leisurely tone made the second mate angry. He guided him step by step, hoping to let the second mate show his feet.

"You were not on the bridge at the time of the crime. The chief officer said you had left under the pretext of going to the toilet..."

"God, how many times do you want me to say that I've really had a stomachache lately?"

"Hehe, just take it as it is."

Hehe, the irony of the two words is far more effective than swearing. An Yizhi continued:

"When you left the bridge, you first went to the toilet to find the hidden guns and clothes and put them on. Then you went to the second floor of the banquet hall and fired two shots at the captain who just finished his speech, so that everyone thought your goal was the captain, but missed. Then you aimed at the chain of the hanging lamp and successfully completed the plan. When you escaped from the banquet hall, you passed the clothes and guns along the laundry It's not that you don't want to destroy the evidence, but that you don't have time. The corridor of the banquet hall doesn't have a window leading out of the ship. You can only throw it into the laundry passage, so we can block you here. "

He shook the latch again:

"There is a layer of luminous paint on it. Although it is difficult for ordinary people to see it, I think your eyes, once a naval lookout, are far more than ordinary people. It is not difficult for you to aim at the chain through the instructions of fluorescent paint."

"I don't know what you're talking about, captain. Do you really believe the nonsense of this unknown private detective?"

Hughes said angrily. Ann pointed out that he was not angry. He continued:

"Your target has always been the dead. There are many evidences, the most obvious one is the gunshot. The interval between the two shots aimed at the captain is very short, which shows that you have no serious intention of killing the captain, while the third shot is a little slower. At that time, you were aiming at the chain of the chandelier. Of course, your target is not just the old gentleman who died in the first case, sitting with him People are the same. However, if you want to use the excuse of the captain's enemy to seek revenge, you can't break the chain first. However, the first reaction of ordinary people to hear the gunshot is to escape or hide under the table. You know that the old man is suffering from serious rheumatism. He can't escape immediately or bend his knees to hide under the table. You take advantage of this Before I came up with the trick of smashing him to death with a chandelier "

"Mr. an Yizhi, I understand what you mean, but how does the second mate know which table the target will make?"

"Very simply, Mr. Hughes met the two dead and mcflynn. Their tickets were given by Mr. Hughes. You know, the three of them are not rich people and can't afford first-class tickets at all. This has been confirmed in Mr. mcflynn's diary."

He turned out his diary and handed it to the captain. The latter nodded after reading it. Although there was no name in the diary, it could be seen that mcflynn was just a worker, and the workers could not afford the first class of the cruise ship in the 1920s.

"I don't know them at all!"

"Really? But their birthplace is chisa island like you. There are only more than 300 people on that island. Even if they don't know each other, they should have an impression."

"I, I, well, I admit, I know them and I gave them the ticket, but I didn't kill anyone! I hide it just because I hate it there. I don't want everyone to know that I come from such a remote place."

Hughes is still quibbling, but for an Yizhi, he just needs to admit that he knows the other three people.

"Now that you admit it, let's move on to the next incident. You know that the chandelier won't kill the other two, so you have prepared a very good plan. You plan to kill one and blame the other, and the one who is blamed also dies of alcoholism because he drinks the fake wine mixed with high alcohol. In this way, you can get rid of the incident perfectly Get out. After all, dead people can't speak. "

He took the pistol that killed the dead from the paper bag:

"Let's start with the technique. You first used your identity to trick the deceased into opening the door for you. I guess your excuse may be that you brought new drugs. After all, the deceased was a drug addict, and the container you put the so-called drugs in was actually a portable refrigerator with thermal insulation function. According to the testimony, the chief mate said that you had left here... I know, you must say I went to the toilet, but several other testimonies mentioned that several sailors saw you pushing a cleaning car through the corridor of first class, and the portable refrigerator should be there. "

"Is it strange for me to see the handcart parked by the cleaning staff and move it away?"

"OK, even if you fooled him, let's go on. After you entered the door, you first gave the dead a cigarette, and then subdued the dead while he lit a cigarette. You once won the champion of free fighting, and you still sneaked from behind. I think it's not difficult for you to subdue an addict. You may have injected him with anesthetic, or just knocked him unconscious, and then you Set up a small mechanism to create a bad illusion of suicide "

He pointed to the fishing line left in the crack of the pistol trigger and said:

"This is the evidence you left on purpose. The portable refrigerator... Well, it just looks like a refrigerator. In fact, it's another thing. It's not filled with drugs, but dry ice. There are two pieces of dry ice you prepared. One is larger and connected with a short fishing line, and the other end of the fishing line is tied to the trigger. The other end of this dry ice is connected with another fishing line and one A very heavy weight, which may be a square iron block or lead block. You put it out of the window and put the smaller dry ice under it. When the dry ice sublimated, the lead block fell and drove the trigger, so the dead committed suicide, while the larger dry ice was a little slower. When the captain heard the gunshot hit the door, there should be some left, but there was no light in the room at that time, the captain No, he only saw the person who was shot in the head and suspected of suicide lying on the bed, so he ordered his men to look after the door and run to me. At this time, the larger dry ice completely melted away, and the fishing line tied with the heavy object slipped down the window and fell into the sea, leaving only a little residue in the trigger of the pistol. The evidence is that there is an obvious frostbite under the victim's thumb, After all, the temperature of dry ice is extremely low. You used this method to make the dead "commit suicide". Such a poor mechanism can be detected by any police officer with some case handling experience. There are many evidences proving that the dead did not commit suicide in the room, such as signs of fighting, etc., but your purpose is not to pretend to commit suicide, but to make the police officer feel, "this is artificial camouflage." A little investigation into the fact that the register and the door were locked at the time of the crime can show that the murderer knew the deceased, and further doubt that Mr. mcflynn was involved. Your purpose is to frame him. "

Throwing the pistol back into the paper bag, an pointed and continued:

"By the way, you also arranged a script for Mr. mcflynn that he couldn't explain. You deliberately told him that there was wine on the ship and used his good wine heart to trick him into drinking the fake wine you added and let him die of alcoholism. The suspect died of alcoholism after drinking. In order to close the case, the police handling the case can only attribute the death of the second victim to him, which suits you But you don't know that although mcflynn has good wine, he didn't drink the wine he brought himself. How can a mere three bottles of sherry make an alcoholic drunk like that, not a dull donkey? "

Although they don't know what kind of wine a stuffy donkey is, they understand what an Yizhi means. A person who often drinks alcohol will never get drunk or even get alcoholism because he only drinks low-grade sherry.

"All this is your guess, you have no evidence!"

Hughes argued loudly. His eyes were red and excited. It was obvious that Ann had just pointed out what he had done.

It was not surprising that a person could restore the original appearance of the event from a little clue, which was almost like seeing it with his own eyes. Hughes felt cold behind his back.

"Indeed, you did it very carefully. No one saw the container of dry ice when you took it to the ship. Besides, you threw the container into the sea long ago. I'm afraid the pistol and clothes you used for the crime were purchased under a pseudonym or disguise. Even if you returned to Hong Kong for investigation, you will find nothing. Even if you don't have an alibi, you have the time to commit the crime. But on this ship There are dozens of guests, not to mention so many sailors. But you forget. "

Ann pointed to the paper bag again. Hughes had never hated anything so much. The paper bag was like a treasure chest. Who knows how many things there were in it.

"Dry ice is not real ice after all. It is solid carbon dioxide, and carbon dioxide can prevent the flame from obtaining the oxygen required for combustion, so it is not burned out with smoke, and more than half of it remains."

Said Ann, holding the half burned handmade cigarette, pretending to put it gracefully under her nose and sniffed.

"Pure Latakia superior tobacco. It's the first time I've seen someone cut it into cigarettes. If you search your body now, can you find a box of handmade cigarettes with the same tobacco?"

An Yi pointed out that he understood this because he had read a Ben Ge reasoning detective novel called "singing white bones" before. At that time, there was this kind of tobacco in it. He also specially picked up some cigarettes to smoke. Although Lin Linglin beat Lin half to death and quit smoking later, the taste of this kind of tobacco was still impressive.

Hughes began to breathe more quickly. His mind kept thinking about how to explain. It seemed that Ann was right.

"But Mr. an Yizhi, we also found a lot of these cigarettes on mcflynn..."

"The second mate gave it to him"

This explanation is not very convincing. The captain has always been skeptical that his second mate is the murderer, so he doesn't believe it very much. Look at TU Hongyu and Qingfeng bazuka, they haven't said a word, because they know it's time for an Yizhi to perform. If they interrupt, he will be unhappy.

——The second disease of high performing desire is so troublesome.

"Well, I know this explanation is hard to convince you. Maybe it's just a coincidence? It happens that mcflynn also likes to smoke this kind of tobacco, but think about it, the price of this kind of tobacco is not cheap. Can mcflynn who works in the factory afford this kind of tobacco? Moreover, I also have conclusive evidence. This is related to the residual saliva on the tobacco, as long as it is extracted with Mr. Hughes's d If you compare Na, you will naturally know that they are exactly the same. Oh, let me explain that DNA comparison is a recent research achievement. It is like fingerprints. Everyone's is different. "

This is pure nonsense. In this era, even fingerprint acquisition technology is not perfect, let alone higher-end DNA comparison. But others didn't know. When they saw what Ann said, they thought it was true.

"Then, Mr. Hughes, can you explain why the cigarette with your saliva appeared in the dead man's room?"

Hughes said nothing. His face trembled and looked at Ann with a hate look.

"By the way, let's talk about the motive of killing. I've always wondered why you killed."

This sentence touched Hughes' scales. He was like an angry bull, shouting and reaching out to raise his pistol.

An Yizhi was so complacent that he didn't take the weapon first.

At this critical moment, an Yizhi felt a strong wind shooting away from him. It turned out to be breeze bazuka.

She reacted the fastest. She stepped forward with a lunge and kicked the gun in Hughes's hand. After all, the latter was the fighting champion. She was also unwilling to show weakness and roared and fought with Qingfeng bazuka. They fought back and forth, and they were very fierce. Others couldn't get in at all.

"She seems to have learned the fighting skills of the army, and her actions are quite like the style of the army."

Because of Lin Linglin's relationship, an Yizhi knows something about Wushu.

"Is there no problem, Miss police officer? Hughes used to be a fighting champion."

The captain was a little worried.

"So the question is, is Military Boxing powerful or free fighting powerful?"

Tu Hongyu is a little eager to try. He is ready to take the breeze. If bazuka is defeated, he will take the sailor to press him up. With his weight, he hopes not to crush the prisoner to death

An Yizhi replied:

"Of course --"

——Bang! Bang! Bang!

Qingfeng bazuka dodged back, took out a pistol and fired three shots at Hughes, hit his legs and right arm respectively, and directly put the other party down.

"With a gun, of course"

Tu Hongyu: "
