Chapter 244 Crime Scene and Witnesses
Under the guidance of Sanji, everyone came to the bridal chamber where the great witch was newlywed.
Nothing was touched in the bridal chamber. The blood splattered on the floor, the broken windows, and the messy bed were all exactly the same as last night.
Luo Jun led everyone around the house in a pretentious manner, but in his mind he was counting the number of times the dice would be used.
Today's times have been used up. Although the difficulty of the previous two clues was as high as 100, the severity factor was only five times. A total of only 1,000 experience was given, and there was still more than 700 experience left before the upgrade... After thinking about it, There is no way to use the dice to find clues today.
Really, for such an important matter as investigating a case, I don’t even want to give you a task...
But then I thought about it, the deadline for investigating the case is before the burial the day after tomorrow, and there is still one day tomorrow. Based on the experience of the last wild underground trial ground, Dice's missions are only released at the last moment. Even if the mission is released, it will have to wait until at least tomorrow.
Thinking of this, Luo Jun was no longer anxious. He walked around the room a few times, pretending to look around, and finally asked Capt. Zhang: "Capt. Zhang, can you tell me what you found at the scene? I'll sort it out. ideas.”
As the saying goes, there are specialties in the field. Even if Luo Jun really had the brain of Sherlock Holmes, without professional knowledge, he would not be able to compare with the old head catcher who has been investigating cases for more than ten years.
Mr. Lu's instructions, coupled with the previous discovery of important clues in the morgue, made Capt. Zhang respect the young Luo Shaoxia very much, and responded cooperatively: "There were no traces of a fight at the scene. The great witch was killed with one blow. According to the bride, the murderer suddenly climbed in through the window to kill, and after he was discovered, he broke through the window and escaped without even taking half a stick of incense, so there were no traces of the murderer at the scene. "
"Miss A Li, right?" Luo Jun stepped forward and said, "We are just asking a few questions and won't disturb you too much."
As the only witness to the entire murder, and also the person who will be buried with the witch the day after tomorrow, the bride has been firmly controlled, so it is not difficult to see her.
"I have told you everything I really know..." the bride said aggrievedly: "I really don't know anything. The man in black suddenly rushed in, killed the adults, and then tried to do evil to me. Later... everyone saw it later. arrive."
The bride shook her head: "After the man came in, he didn't say a word..."
Luo Jun learned this from the criminal investigation drama he had watched before, but after hearing it in Zhang Captou's ears, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Luo Shaoxia is really experienced... It's a pity. We checked carefully and there is nothing on it." Any abnormal fibers remaining…”
"Madam!" Sanji saluted: "These are the five elders who came to investigate the assassination of the great witch. They want to know some information from Madam."
"This is a bit strange. Are the clothes so strong?" Luo Jun asked tentatively.
The bride still shook her head: "No..."
Sanji ordered a few southern Xinjiang warriors to keep an eye on the scene, and then led everyone to the side room.
"I already know it after going through it. What I want to ask are some details." Luo Jun looked at the bride: "For example, when the murderer committed the crime, did he make a sound or say anything, such as 'I want revenge' or something like that?" "
"Normally speaking, such a violent escape through the window will always leave traces." Captain Zhang nodded: "But it is estimated that the clothes the murderer wore are made of special materials. They may be some kind of soft protective armor, which is particularly tough, so No fiber remains…”
“What about when he tried to do evil things to you later?” Luo Jun asked, “You didn’t make any laughter or anything like that?”
Luo Jun didn’t think that she was sad for the death of the great witch, but rather that she was terrified because she was buried with him.
"That's right..." Luo Jun nodded and came to the broken window: "The murderer escaped by breaking the window. Are there any fibers from clothing left on the stubble of the wood?"
"This is the bride's residence. From last night to now, she has not left the house. The doors and windows are also guarded by special personnel to prevent her from escaping." After saying that, Sanji led everyone to the door and negotiated with the Southern Xinjiang warrior guarding the door. After a while, he opened the door and entered.
"That's it..." Luo Jun didn't know if this was reasonable, so he could only nodded vaguely and looked out the window: "It's a bit cloudy today and the sky is a bit dark, so let's come and see the scene tomorrow... First How about going to find out the following from the bride?”
“As for the murderer’s state when he left, many guests saw it and can testify.” Sanji added: “But when he came in, only the bride saw it.”
Luo Jun took a look and saw that the bride was still wearing last night's wedding dress, with exquisite makeup on her face. However, unlike her bright appearance when she received the bride yesterday, she now looked a little haggard and tired, and the gold and silverware on her head was picked off. I took it down and put it on the table, probably because it was too burdensome all the time...
"I have already said everything I know..." the bride warned: "If you don't catch the murderer, why are you torturing me, a dying person..." As she said this, she covered her face with a handkerchief and began to sob.
Noticing someone coming in, the bride who was sitting in the room suddenly stood up with a look of horror on her face: "Who are you?"
Obviously, she hasn't changed her clothes from last night to now, and she probably hasn't had a good rest either.
“He had his face covered and was dressed in black, and he never made a sound...” Luo Jun frowned and said, “Then can you be sure whether he is a boy or a girl?”
Sanji found this question funny: "Would a woman want to molest her bride?"
"That's not necessarily true..." Luo Junxin said that you, a bunch of rubbish, have only heard of several genders. "You think, if the murderer really wanted to molest the bride, why not just knock him unconscious? Miss Ali has no power to restrain a chicken, a man who can A master who assassinated a great witch and escaped unscathed, it only took a moment to knock her out. Is there a possibility that the murderer wanted to deliberately mislead us and make you think that she was a male? "
After listening to Luo Jun's analysis, Sanji couldn't help but be stunned, and thought for a moment and said: "It's possible. All the suspects we have targeted are men, and we have never suspected women..." "So hurry up and make it up. …They will all be added to my wish list when the time comes…”
Next, several people asked the bride some more questions, but they kept repeating the same few sentences over and over again. They basically had no idea what to ask, and they kept chattering away, so they couldn't get any effective information.
Seeing that it was getting late, several people left the bride's room.
At this time, a man from southern Xinjiang came over with a thick stack of paper and handed it to Sanji. On it was the list Luo Jun had requested before.
"This pile is the guests who came here last night; this pile is the servants present; these are the suspects who have been controlled; and this pile is the list of all Luoyue people in Yunzhou City that has just been transferred. " Sanji handed the information to Luo Jun: "You just mentioned that the suspect may be a female. I will report to the Fifth Elder and investigate immediately. I will compile a list of female suspects tomorrow morning. "
"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Luo Jun took it with a smile and looked through it briefly. He found that the list of guests and servants alone included hundreds of people, and there were two to three thousand Luo Yue people, both men and women. As for the key suspects, there are twenty-two in total, all of them men.
“How are you sure they are suspects?” Luo Jun asked.
"They are all people who have had a feud with the big witch and have the motive to kill." Sanji said: "The big witch takes concubines. Such enemies will naturally not invite them, so there are no suspects among the guests... To be honest, I think it is unlikely that the guests committed the crime. You'd better start investigating these twenty people."
Luo Junxin said who committed the crime will be determined by the dice: "Where are they now?"
“Everything is under control...Do you want to interrogate me now?”
"No need...it's getting late. Let's go back today to sort out the clues, and then come back to investigate in detail tomorrow." Luo Jun waved his hand. There was no dice count today, and it might not be useful to ask. It would be better to wait until the zero count is refreshed and verify it first. one time.
"By the way, I want to take these lists away for study..." Luo Jun asked: "Maybe they will be lost or damaged by then... Do you have a backup?"
“What I’m giving you is a backup. The fifth elder has given instructions.” Sanji said, “Don’t worry. As long as the real culprit can be caught, there’s no problem in burning these lists!”
Luo Jun thought to himself that I would be relieved, nodded, and put the list away.
When other people solve a case, they first look for clues and evidence, and then slowly deduce the suspect. Luo Jun is different. He first locks in the suspect, and then works backwards to find out the clues... How can I put it, they are all to solve the case, and we reach the same goal through different paths.
Farewell to Sanji, the group left the Southern Xinjiang Assembly Hall and returned to the borders of the Central Plains. Zhang Captou led his people back to the Governor's Mansion to resume their duties, while Luo Jun and others headed to the Bainamen branch.
“Isn’t it just a list this time?” On the way, Hou Song couldn’t help but ask: “That truth water of yours, doesn’t it work only if you press your fingerprints and tell the truth?”
“Oh, that one...it’s all used up...” Luo Jun spread his hands.
“Used it all?” Tie Jinggang and Liu Si also widened their eyes when they heard this: “Did you use it up just the last time?”
"It wasn't much at first..." Luo Jun shrugged his shoulders: "It was enough to support that one time."
To be honest, Luo Jun also thought about asking the Fifth Elder to find all these suspects and verify them like the time in the prison, but he gave up the idea after getting to know them a little bit. Not to mention the two dozen suspects, the big witch taking a concubine is a big deal. There are hundreds of people attending the wedding banquet. There are too many people. There are also many high-ranking people in southern Xinjiang. They have to gather together to cooperate in the verification. I'm afraid it's not that easy. Coupled with the thousands of extra Luoyue clan members...
It is time-consuming and labor-intensive to test all of them, and it takes thirteen moves in a row. It would be better if you really catch it in the end. If you don't, it will be a waste of time, and the real murderer may be allowed to escape...
"Then... why do you want the list now?" Tie Jinggang asked in confusion: "Are there other magic weapons that can find the real murderer just by looking at the list?"
"There is no such convenient way." Luo Jun smiled and shook his head: "The main reason I asked for the list at that time was to stabilize the people in southern Xinjiang, give them hope, and make them feel that we have mysterious power and it is only a matter of time before we solve the case."
“I was also worried that there was no progress in our investigation, and they would do something drastic in anger.”
"Of course, the results are good so far. We have found a clue pointing to that Luoyue clan. The fifth elder is focusing on that for the time being."
"But...even if we are stable today, what will we do if we can't get the results tomorrow?" Hou Song worried: "Without the help of the Noble Phantasm, how can we find the real culprit?"
Luo Jun knocked on his head: "Fuck this!"
“Ah?” The three of them said in unison: “Are you really planning to rely on reasoning to solve the case?”
"Isn't there some basic information about these people on the list?" Luo Jun said with a smile: "Stay up late tonight and take a look, maybe I can find some clues... In addition, I didn't find nothing today. In addition to the clues about poison, I also found another clue. doubts."
