Chapter 20：

"I left."

At this moment, Shang Lihui, who had been squatting quietly in the corner, stood up and walked slowly.

Everyone looked over.

"You left? Why didn't I know?" Quan Ning was surprised, he really had no impression.

Shang Lihui didn't explain much, and stood in front of Fang Ze.

Fang Ze was a little surprised. The question just now was indeed just a routine question.

Although he had already focused his investigation on Ling Xiu's acquaintances, he didn't really doubt the students present.

Because the risk of committing a crime is too great.

Go back after killing someone?

Are you not afraid that others will see the problem?

Looking at Shang Lihui, whose eyes were red and who had obviously cried just now, Fang Ze said, "Can I ask what you did out there?"

"I answered a phone call. It's about work."

With that said, Shang Lihui took out his mobile phone, opened the call log and handed it to Fang Ze.

Fang Ze just glanced at it, but didn't take over.

It does have the call records before the incident.

"and then?"

"After answering the call, I went back to the private room. It took less than five minutes."

Shang Lihui answered quickly and naturally. During the period, he looked at Fang Ze squarely, looking very calm, not like lying.

Fang Ze didn't notice anything unusual, nodded and said, "I see."

Immediately, he turned to face his classmates, and said, "Why don't you go back first, and choose a new floor or hotel for those who are out of town. I will investigate this case carefully."

Everyone looked at each other and nodded.

Now that his own suspicions have been ruled out, it is useless to stay here any longer, and it will affect the police's investigation of the case.

Chapter 36 Preliminary Results of the Autopsy

Apart from the police, Shang Lihui and Gan Tong were left behind, but at Fang Ze's request, they did not approach the scene and stood at a distance.

These two people have an unusual relationship with Ling Xiu.

One is the husband, and the other is the best friend of the deceased.

The two of them didn't want to leave like this, and they wanted to pay attention to the progress of the case.

In the room, Ming Chuan and the others were still busy.

Autopsy and evidence collection are meticulous tasks that cannot be sloppy.

Twenty minutes later, Jiang Xiaobai came back from the monitoring room.

"Team Fang, Team Luo, have already checked, and there is no problem with KTV."

Hearing this, Fang Ze nodded, that is to say, after Ling Xiu returned to the room, none of the classmates and family members in the KTV private room left.

As for Shang Lihui, he couldn't do anything in five minutes.

This is very important alibi, enough to prove that the perpetrator is not among these people.

It can be regarded as ruling out a possibility.

"Where's the monitoring on the third floor?" Fang Ze asked.

The key point is here.

Mentioning the monitoring on the third floor, Jiang Xiaobai said solemnly: "Fang team, the monitoring on the third floor was deliberately blocked."

"Ok?"

Fang Ze's eyes flickered.

The person who did this is very likely to be the murderer, and there is a premeditated plan.

Although the act of blocking surveillance does not seem difficult, it can also explain from a certain aspect that the murderer has certain anti-reconnaissance capabilities.

Now that the investigation has come to this point, there is no specific direction for the time being. It depends on the results of the on-site evidence collection.

Teacher Ming Chuan's ability, Fang Ze heard from Zhong Yi, is still trustworthy in terms of autopsy and on-site investigation.

After more than half an hour, the on-site investigation finally came to an end. Ming Chuan took off his mask and walked out of the room.

Fang Ze and the others all looked over.

Ming Chuan said: "The time of death was around 2:30 in the afternoon. The deceased was pierced through the lung by a sharp weapon, but it was not a fatal injury. The fatal injury was a wound on the neck, which directly cut off the trachea."

"The murder weapon is here."

While speaking, Ming Chuan picked up the bag in his hand.

There was a sharp dagger in the bag.

The dagger is very delicate and uncommon. I don't know why the murderer didn't take it away.

"Are there any fingerprints?" Luo Bixin asked.

Ming Chuan shook his head: "No fingerprints were found at the scene, not even footprints."

Luo Bixin frowned. From this point of view, the murderer probably did not commit the crime for the first time.

At least, not ordinary people.

It is very likely that he has a criminal record.

"Any other discoveries?" It was Fang Ze who spoke.

It's not surprising that there are no fingerprints and footprints, but there is no perfect crime in this world, as long as it is done, there must be loopholes.

Ming Chuan turned his head and said, "According to my observation, the murderer should be the first time to kill someone."

"Oh? How should I say it?"

Ming Chuan continued: "The first is the wound on the deceased's chest. The wound is on the upper side and the depth is on the lower side, which means that the murderer stabbed down with the dagger held backwards instead of straight."

"Yes." Fang Ze nodded and listened carefully.

"But the blade is at the bottom, which means that the murderer even held the dagger backwards when he was nervous."

"Secondly, there are three or four wounds on the neck. The murderer was afraid that he would not kill the deceased with one knife, and then cut several times on the neck of the deceased. This is also the fatal wound of the deceased."

"As for the scars on the face, they were intentionally left by the murderer after the deceased had already died. The reason is unknown."

"So I deduce that the murderer is likely to kill someone for the first time, and he is still very nervous, feeling a little forced to rush to the shelves."

Luo Bixin continued to ask: "Is the deceased's property lost?"

Ming Chuan said: "The husband of the deceased said that there was 50,000 cash in Lingxiu's bag, but we didn't find it, and the phone was not there."

"Murder for money?"

"Probably."

After listening carefully to the conversation of several people, Fang Ze thought deeply.

He asked Gan Tong, Ling Xiu and her husband are not from Penghai, but they are very close, and they only came to Penghai because of the class reunion.

And it was the first time to come to Penghai, and Gan Tong had talked with Ling Xiu about similar matters.

It shouldn't be wrong.

Since it's the first time I've come to Penghai, I won't make enemies with others.

But in this case, no matter how he looked at it, it looked like a deliberate homicide.

Although the murderer committed the crime for the first time, he had a strong purpose, probably not just for property.

Especially the trace of puzzlement left in the eyes of the deceased lingered in Fang Ze's mind and couldn't get rid of it.

After thinking for a while to no avail, Fang Ze suggested, "After collecting the evidence, clean up the scene, seal up the evidence and take it away, copy all the nearby surveillance cameras, and we'll talk about it in the bureau."

"it is good."

Ding Chunqiu and Jiang Xiaobai nodded, and then went to work.

On-site investigation is only the first step. How to solve the case is the most important issue.

Glancing at Monk Gan Tong Lihui standing in the distance, Fang Ze pondered for a while, and said, "Go back first, I'll have a chat with the deceased's friend, see you at the bureau at nine o'clock in the evening, Captain Luo, I think everyone needs to work overtime gone."

"That's no problem." Luo Bixin nodded.

Although some people are on vacation, they must return to work at any time when they encounter a case.

After finishing speaking, Luo Bixin also looked at Gan Tong, his gaze fluctuated slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Whether it was the hijacking at Tianyuan Square or the murder at Tianju Hotel, the other party was always by Fang Ze's side.

This made Luo Bixin suddenly feel that the relationship between the two seems to be more than just classmates.

Chapter 37 Ling Xiu's Past

At seven o'clock in the evening, Penghai Dile Bar.

Compared with the noisy and heavy metal rhythms of other bars, Dile takes a warm route, with soft music echoing in the ears, which makes people feel soothed.

If it is paired with a glass of mixed wine, sitting here quietly can be regarded as temporarily away from the noise and disturbance of the city.

There are not many young people here, most of whom are born in the 80s and 90s.

Perhaps only at this age can one feel the ups and downs of life.

Beside the booth, Gan Tong was shaking the wine in the glass, the liquid glowed light blue under the light.

Heart of the Ocean, the name of the bartender, is quite appropriate.

After staring at the wine glass for a while, Gan Tong raised his head and drank it down: "One more glass!"

The bartender put away Gan Tong's cup and made another mix.

There are all kinds of people who come here, and there are all kinds of people. The bartender has long been used to it.

Next to him, Fang Ze remained silent, with a glass of cold water in front of him.

Originally, he wanted to drink with Gan Tong, but he thought that he would have to go back to the office for a meeting later, and if others smelled it, the impact would not be very good.

Although it's not a big problem, Fang Ze doesn't have to drink it.

Soon, the bartender put the new Heart of the Ocean in front of Gan Tong, and then left to do other things.

Gan Tong was about to pick up the wine glass, Fang Ze raised his hand and pressed it down, saying: "Gan Tong, drink less."

Perhaps because of drunkenness, Gan Tong did not persist, turned his head, and stared at Fang Ze with slightly blurred eyes.

"Why do you say people are so fragile... They died after only seeing each other for a few hours..."

"I haven't seen Ling Xiu for a long time. I didn't expect today to be the last time..."

While speaking, Gan Tong's voice was choked with sobs.

Ling Xiu's death dealt a certain blow to her, and at the same time, she felt a little scared in her heart.

In broad daylight, someone actually dared to rush into the hotel and kill people.

This kind of plot that can only be seen in TV dramas left Gan Tong at a loss for a while.

Fang Ze sighed, and said, "There will never be darkness in this world, but you have to believe that evil will never defeat justice."
