Chapter 25：

As for Luo Bixin and the others, their expressions changed.

In other words, an outsider wearing the clothes of a waiter entered the private room?

Or rather, Quan Ning lied.

Of course, there are only two possibilities in theory. Quan Ning would not lie. There were so many people there at the time, so just ask others and you will know.

"Quanning, do you remember what that person looks like?" Fang Ze said.

Quan Ning thought for a while, and said, "I probably remember, if you give me a photo, I can recognize it."

"Okay." Fang Ze nodded, "Captain Ding, please go back to the game with him and simulate the portrait."

"no problem."

...

Chapter 45 Quan Ning Involved in the Case?

Three hours later, the Penghai Municipal Bureau.

Fang Ze held a portrait in his hand.

As for Quan Ning, Fang Ze has already asked him to leave, and he has already asked all the questions that should be asked.

On the other hand, Quan Ning was very enthusiastic, saying that he could call him for help at any time, and invited Fang Ze to make up for a drink, after all, it had been a long time since we had seen each other.

Fang Ze can only respond that he will wait until the case is over.

All the clues inside and outside the hotel have basically been surveyed so far.

The next step is to find someone.

The portrait is of a young man, drawn according to Quan Ning's description.

Although it can't be 100% restored, it can still achieve a 95% similarity.

During the period, Quan Ning also sent the portrait to the other students present via WeChat, and all of them replied that it was this person.

As long as people who have seen it see this portrait, they will definitely be able to recall it if they have an impression.

After looking at it for a while, Fang Ze handed the portrait in his hand to Jiang Xiaobai, and said, "Check through the system to see if this person has a previous criminal record."

"it is good."

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and took it, and then went to work.

Fang Ze sorted out the process of the case again in his mind, and said, "Captain Ding, what's the monitoring result?"

Ding Chunqiu said: "Surveillance shows that the masked man did get into a taxi, but the distance is too far, and he can only see the first few numbers of the license plate."

"As for the destination, the scope is a bit large. Pan Pu and the others are still investigating, and there should be results soon. I will help later."

"Ok."

Fang Ze nodded.

According to his deduction, the man wearing a mask in the surveillance is suspected of committing a major crime.

As long as he is found, the case should be solved.

Although this person has been very careful, he still left a lot of loopholes. With Fang Ze's ability, it is not difficult to find out.

It's just that Fang Ze still has doubts in his heart.

That is the motive of the murderer.

Is it really for money?

Fang Ze didn't think so.

He always felt that it was done by an acquaintance.

But the results of the investigation couldn't confirm his guess at all.

"Could it be that the direction is wrong?" Fang Ze rubbed his forehead, a little confused.

Luo Bixin poured Fang Ze a glass of water and said, "Team Fang, have you locked down the suspect?"

"thanks."

Fang Ze took the water glass, nodded and said, "The murderer looks smart but he is very unfamiliar with his actions. This case is not difficult, just find the person with the portrait."

Luo Bixin said: "You mean, the person in the portrait is the masked man in the surveillance?"

"En." Fang Ze nodded, "It shouldn't be wrong."

He had already thought about many possibilities, and with the clues in his hand, after eliminating them, only this one possibility remained in the end.

The others are far-fetched and cannot be established.

Luo Bixin roughly understood Fang Ze's train of thought. After thinking for a while, he said, "Is this the case? After the murderer entered the hotel, he disguised himself as a waiter and entered the private room halfway. Lingxiu put sleeping pills in her diet."

"Then, Ling Xiu felt sleepy in the KTV, and went back to the room by herself."

"The murderer followed and committed the crime? That was obviously premeditated."

It sounds like it's very simple, even the method is a bit silly.

Seeing that Luo Bixin seemed suspicious, Fang Ze said, "Don't think all the murderers are so smart. Most people with high IQ are the pillars of the country, and only a few go astray."

"Having said that, there are still a few strange things." Luo Bixin hesitated for a moment and said.

Fang Ze took a sip of water, smiled and said, "Let me speak for you."

"First, how did the murderer know that the deceased would come to Tianju Hotel today?"

"Secondly, how did he know that after we had dinner at the party, we would definitely go to sing instead of leaving the hotel directly."

"Third, why is the murderer so sure that Shang Lihui won't accompany Ling Xiu back to the room?"

After listening to Fang Ze's words, Luo Bixin was taken aback.

This was indeed something that made her feel strange, and Fang Ze added one more thing.

She found that Fang Ze's thinking was always ahead of her, and she couldn't catch up at all.

At that moment, Luo Bixin gave Fang Ze a blank look, pretended to be angry and said, "Say it quickly! You're playing tricks on me again!"

"Ahem..." Fang Ze coughed lightly, and said, "Actually, I don't know, I just wanted to investigate."

"Ah? I don't know? Is there a direction?" Luo Bixin said.

Mentioning this matter, Fang Ze's smile slowly subsided, it seemed that the person he was going to investigate next caused him a lot of fluctuations in his heart.

Although he didn't want to believe it, he had to respect the facts.

Women are sensitive, Luo Bixin sensed Fang Ze's abnormality.

After a moment of silence, Luo Bixin said, "Acquaintance?"

Fang Ze nodded.

"Why don't you go, I'll go?"

Luo Bixin understands very well that anyone who finds out that acquaintances are involved in the case will find it difficult to maintain a normal mind and carry out work.

Fang Ze shook his head, stood up and said, "Come on, come with me and invite someone to have a cup of tea."

"Who?"

"Quan Ning!"

This name made Fang Ze sigh and Luo Bixin's face froze slightly.

Quan Ning?

That is Fang Ze's college classmate and roommate, a buddy with a very good relationship.

"I really hope it's not you."

"At least, don't have anything to do with this case..."

Chapter 46

There is a restaurant not far from the Municipal Bureau.

The restaurant is not big, but it is very distinctive. It is partly indoor and partly open-air.

If you sit here drinking tea and chatting with friends or lovers on a sunny afternoon, enjoying the time when noise and tranquility coexist, it will be a special experience.

"Fang Ze, you finally figured it out!"

At the table, Quan Ning poured tea for Luo Bixin and Fang Ze, and said.

"Let me just say, which is more important, work or me? Of course it's me!"

"Investigating a case is not something that can be done in a day or two. You need to relax your body and mind at the appropriate time."

Before Fang Ze could speak, Quan Ning started talking non-stop.

Although Ling Xiu's murder happened not long ago, it was an outsider's matter after all. Although it was regrettable, it would not affect the mood too much.

"Have you met my wife? Let me introduce you, Ning Xue, isn't it nice? They both have the word Ning, isn't it fate?"

Luo Bixin glanced at Quan Ning, then at Ning Xue, her eyes drooping, she didn't know what she was thinking.

Fang Ze also did not expect that Quan Ning would bring his wife along.

If that's the case, should we still ask about that matter?

Fang Ze was a little confused.

"The murderer has been found." Fang Ze said suddenly.

Hearing this, Quan Ning paused when he put the teapot down, and then said in surprise, "Really? So fast? Who did it?"

Fang Ze looked at Quan Ning and said, "The hiding place hasn't been found yet, it should be in these two days, and we will arrest him then."

"sharp!"

Quan Ning gave Fang Ze a thumbs up, and said, "I've heard that you are a master at solving crimes in Yangcheng, and I finally saw it today."

"Hey, speaking of it, Ling Xiu is quite pitiful. This kind of thing happened just after she got married. After you catch the murderer, you must give him a heavy sentence!"

"That's for sure." Fang Ze nodded.

Quan Ning took a sip of tea and said, "Don't mention the unhappy ones in advance, but why did you suddenly think of inviting me out for tea?"

"It's nothing. The bureau is currently investigating. There are enough people. I can't help much if I stay there."

Fang Ze picked up the teacup and said casually.

"Oh, that's right, you must rest when it's time to rest." Quan Ning said with a smile.

After chatting for a while, Fang Ze casually said, "Ling Xiu seems to have been single for a while after the divorce, right? Is no one chasing her during this period of time?"

As soon as these words came out, Quan Ning's expression froze for a moment, and he quickly returned to normal: "I don't know, probably not? After all, it's hard to find someone with a child."

"That's right..." Fang Ze nodded, "But with Ling Xiu's appearance, the influence of the child is probably not too great..."

Having said that, Fang Ze looked at Quan Ning.

Looking into Fang Ze's gaze, Quan Ning agreed, and said, "That's true, maybe there is, I haven't heard of it, why are you asking this?"

Luo Bixin also looked at Quan Ning.

The other party's answer was kind of muddy, with one end here and one end here, as if they were unwilling to discuss this topic.

Is there really something wrong with this person?

What did Fang Ze discover?

Along the way, Fang Ze didn't tell her anything, but said that Quan Ning was probably the key point of the case, but he might not be involved.

This kind of contradictory statement made Luo Bixin confused.

But she was very sensible and didn't ask any further questions.

Fang Ze glanced at Ning Xue, hesitated for a moment, and said, "According to our investigation, although the murderer robbed money, it was not for money, but deliberately killed, with an obvious purpose."
