Chapter 5 The Leaves in the Gap

Xiao Bai didn't continue his hypothesis until the senior and Kazuko completely got rid of the question of whether it was the owner of the house or an outsider who entered the room.The potato chips had bottomed out, and he secretly urged himself to speed up.

"I think the existence of the Chamber of Secrets means that outsiders don't want anyone in the house, including himself."

"I object." After a mental confrontation with Hezi, the senior's enthusiasm was obviously much higher than before. "Xiaobai, you are thinking from the perspective of a good citizen who abides by laws and regulations, but don't forget that this outsider is a criminal, and he is not as civilized and polite as you. But for us, for criminals, it is all loopholes. A glass window, if you hit it with a stone, it will be broken. How easy it is to break through the window."

"In that case, why don't outsiders not lock the windows at the beginning, it's more convenient after all." Hezi wanted to laugh a little, because there was actually no special reason for the senior's phrase "being civilized and polite", but he just felt that the senior said that Bai, very interesting.Xiaobai already had an obedient student face, and it matched the senior's evaluation, which was inexplicably suitable.

"But he doesn't want others to go in, so he has to lock the windows."

"People's behaviors are based on their own ideas. Similarly, people will also guess other people's behaviors based on their own ideas. To put it another way is not very appropriate, it is from oneself to others. Outsiders will want to break the glass. If there is no way to enter the room, he will think that other people will also break the glass and enter the room. In this way, this room is not safe, since it is not safe, why should he hide things here. "

Xiaobai's words made some sense. The senior fell into deep thought. After a long time, he hesitated and said: "After all, there are few people here, and outsiders may think that no one will pass by here."

"If he really thinks that way, he doesn't need to lock the windows, he just needs to close the windows." He Zi had obviously stood in the same team as Xiao Bai.

"Actually, we overlooked a very important point just now, that is, thieves or robbers don't need to wipe off their fingerprints at all. If ordinary people find something hidden here, they probably won't think that it's illegal income, and they won't even think about it. They won’t call the police; if the police find something here, doesn’t it mean that they have a clue. In short, the act of wiping off fingerprints is redundant for those two kinds of people.”

Scratching his hair, the senior gave up struggling, he couldn't think of how to refute Xiaobai's guess, he could only let his thoughts merge with those of the two. "Okay, I give up. But if the items hidden in the room are not stolen items, what else? The blind area of ​​the triangle is not very big, and things that are too large should not be hidden."

I don't know how many times he looked into the room, Hezi was thoughtful, and a trace of worry appeared in his eyes.An outsider entered the room for some reason, used the table to create a blind corner where things could be hidden and could not be seen from the outside, and cleaned the fingerprints on the doors and windows. Of course, the outsider may also have cleaned the fingerprints inside the room. Windows were locked inside, turning the house into a secret room.Judging from the actions of outsiders, he was worried that once this place was discovered, and no matter who the discoverer was, the police would be alerted. That's why outsiders made so many cover-ups.So, it's all behaving like...

"The corpse, outsiders are hiding the corpse." Xiao Bai said this calmly.

"What? Corpse! Murder case! This is impossible!" As if hearing the sound of a starting gun, the senior jumped up, his eyes wide enough to be compared with cartoon characters.His expression was a little funny, but he was serious.

"Why is it impossible?" Compared with the senior's furious hair, Xiao Bai is still calm.

"You mean, someone carried a dead body to this deep mountain and old forest, and then hid it here? People with the same purpose as us may appear here. It is too risky to walk around with a dead body. It will be found, and the murderer will never do it. Besides, there is still a long distance from the foot of the mountain. How much strength did the murderer have to bring the corpse here? Burying near the foot of the mountain is the plot of the suspense drama. Moreover, if you are a guilty conscience, you will usually choose to throw the corpse at night." Said this almost in one breath Talkative, the senior's chest rises and falls obviously.

I don't know whether he was repelled by the senior's reaction, or he thought that the matter was just a wild imagination, and the worry in Hezi's eyes disappeared. "Senior, your thinking is like a horror movie. Naturally, the murderer will not come here from other places with the corpse. His crime location should be nearby, and it may even be this room."

"The murderer brought someone here on purpose and killed him? Premeditated murder?"

"I don't think it's premeditated murder." Xiaobai held the bag of potato chips on his chin, looking uncertain, "It's too hasty, all the traces left here suggest that the murderer acted hastily, more than Hasty, and very frightened." Unknowingly, everyone has changed the name "outsider" to "murderer".

"Why is it so hasty? Didn't the murderer wipe off his fingerprints very carefully?" Hezi questioned.

"It's the act of wiping off the fingerprints that makes me think that the murderer is not premeditated." Not confident in his own thoughts, Xiao Bai's expression showed hesitation, but he continued to speak. "Premeditating murder and hiding the corpse here proves that the murderer knew the existence of an abandoned house here. Then, the murderer should know that the door is locked, but the window is not. I will divide the following analysis into two directions, one The crime scene is this room, and the second is that the crime scene is nearby. If it is the first point, both the murderer and the victim need to enter the room, which is very strange. Imagine that the murderer and the victim walked away for some reason. At this point, the murderer suddenly proposed to come into this room, or by jumping out of the window. This unreasonable behavior will be suspected. Why did the victim choose to obey? If it is the second point, the murderer is nearby Kill the victim and move the body here, so he doesn’t need to touch the doorknob at all, just open the window, but the murderer wiped off the fingerprints on the doorknob and the window, which is very contradictory.”

Maybe it was Xiaobai's lack of self-confidence that was transmitted to the senior, or maybe it was because the speculated murder made him feel heavy. In short, the senior's expression was shrouded in a cloud, and his voice was much lower than before.

"The fingerprints on the door handle may have been left by the murderer when he first came here and he needed to make sure the doors and windows of the house were locked."

"No, according to the murderer's cautious character of premeditating murder, he should have wiped off his fingerprints at that time, instead of leaving them after the murder. The rain stopped about two hours ago, and the act of wiping off fingerprints was after the rain stopped, otherwise There is no way to explain the absence of water marks. Two hours is not enough time for the murderer to finish planning the murder and implement the plan, at least, it takes time for the murderer to ask the victim to come here."

"That is to say, the second scenario that Xiaobai assumed can be ruled out." Hezi cast his eyes on the branch not far away, the water droplets that had not yet dripped reflected the sunlight, like a crystal clear gem. "But the first scenario is possible."
