Chapter 12 Three Women and a Drama
"Oh, me?"
Li Tian'er was startled, but fortunately she didn't laugh.
When Li Tian'er gave her testimony, Yu Xuan and Liu Xiao consciously put on their headsets to block out the information.
It was clearly a murder case, but it was made like a variety show.
Jiang Qian sighed and came to Li Tianer: "Tell me about your contact with the deceased that day and what happened after you returned to the room."
"Okay..."
Li Tianer began to state: "I know classmate Jiang because he is Yu Xuan's younger brother. He is very smart and handsome. We all like him. We danced together during tonight's entertainment, but that's all. I don't want to be jealous with my sisters!"
As she said, she glanced at Liu Xiao and lowered her eyebrows and said: "After dancing, we separated. Later, around 7:30, I returned to the room to change clothes..."
"Then, did you hear any movement next door?"
Jiang Qian stared at her eyes. If she was ruled out as the murderer, then her confession at this time would be true.
Li Tianer thought for a while, her eyes wandering: "I was playing music at the time and didn't pay much attention to the movement outside."
"Didn't hear anything?"
"Hmm..." with a little hesitation.
"Is there anyone else in your room?" Jiang Qian turned to ask other questions.
"No." Very sure.
"So, you don't have an alibi, and no one can prove that you have been in the room all the time." Jiang Qian pinched his chin and analyzed, "If you stole the guest room door card and entered 8001 to commit the crime, it is completely feasible from the time point of view."
As he spoke, he asked the host: "Is there a spare room card on this floor?"
"Yes, sorry I forgot to say it just now! During the time period of the crime that night, the supervisor of the guest room floor was called away by the manager for a lecture, and according to her, the spare room card was in an unlocked drawer in her workroom, but it disappeared last night." The host said ashamedly.
Such an important clue, you only said it now? Are you a pig... Jiang Qian immediately looked admiring: "This supplement is very important, thank you."
"Don't, don't be so polite." The host shrank his head and smiled.
In this way, in addition to Yu Xuan who has an alibi witness (director), Li Tianer and Liu Xiao are both likely to obtain the spare door card to enter the door to commit the crime... No, Yu Xuan is the one who found the body, and her suspicion cannot be completely ruled out.
The most important thing now is to eliminate or seek the flaws of the real murderer through the intersection of the three perspectives.
And some key points are the best bait to lock the real murderer.
For example, the "door opening sound" before he fell down...
"What songs did you listen to on the night of the crime?" Jiang Qian continued to look for a breakthrough.
This question confused Li Tianer.
"Ah... How can I remember all of them? Let me think about it!" Li Tianer looked to the lower left, stroking her fingers at the same time, "There are Ignite, Lethal Industry, and Prayer X?"
Jiang Qian smiled: "Are you asking me?"
Then he fixed his eyes and pressed: "Did you really not hear any other sounds? No quarrels, no door openings, nothing?"
Li Tianer touched her neck and her left shoulder shook: "No... right."
The body expression of concealment and the obvious uncertainty of the answer, for the third time... Jiang Qian's goal was sharp, and he slowly put pressure by lowering his tone: "No... right? Only murderers can lie, think about it again."
"Uh, actually, I heard you and Liu Xiao quarreling... Liu Xiao slammed the door! After that, I lay down After snooping on the door for a while, you returned to Yu Xuan's room next door, and there was no movement. Not long after, Yu Xuan screamed from next door, and then she opened the door and ran out to call for help. I was not sure what happened, and I did not dare to go out to see. Sorry, this is all I can remember! "
Jiang Qian approached Li Tian'er and asked in a voice that only she could hear: "Tell me quietly, without considering the basis, who do you think is most likely to harm me?"
"Um, Yu Xuan?"
"Oh?"
"She doesn't like you hanging around us, and her feelings for you are definitely more than just a brother and sister!" Li Tian'er vowed.
"Very good, thank you."
Jiang Qian left Li Tian'er neatly and came to Liu Xiao.
Li Tian'er put on the headset again, and Liu Xiao took off the silent headset.
"Desire... Miss Liu, please describe your situation at the time of the incident." Jiang Qian almost accidentally said those two words.
Miss Liu Xiao looked at Jiang Qian with a face full of resentment: "You stinky brother, you are still so annoying even after death!"
The audience was in an uproar and laughter was boiling.
The acting is poor, I really want to complain, but I am racing against time... Jiang Qian coughed lightly: "Let's talk about business first."
"Hmph!"
Liu Xiao glared at Jiang Qian fiercely, as a complaint for being stood up by him.
Then she slowly said: "I admit that I noticed you when you entered the nightclub. But you didn't seem to be interested in me. I used a little trick to use a magic incense on you and took the opportunity to put the room card in your pocket. Haha, I didn't expect you to really come!"
"I have to say that your way of humiliating women is shameful. I have never been rejected like this! Am I not pretty enough? Or is there something not big enough? I believe that normal men will not be picky about the size of me..."
"To be honest, I really wanted to kill you with my own hands at that time! Humph, it's a pity that the opportunity was taken away by others..."
Liu Xiao hugged her shoulders and talked incessantly, but her eyes were still half affectionate and half resentful and staring at Jiang Qian.
But Jiang Qian had no time to respond to her.
Jiang Qian's mind was recalling the situation at that time. At that time, he was drugged and his mind was not very clear. Even his body perception was greatly reduced. Is it possible that he came out of her room after being stabbed by Liu Xiao?
Unlikely.
He remembered clearly that Liu Xiao's hands were bare when she was in close contact with him, and she did not wear gloves or other decorations that could effectively prevent fingerprints. The investigation results just now showed that no effective fingerprint information was detected on the murder weapon.
If the murderer is Liu Xiao, then she must have entered Yu Xuan's room later to commit the crime, which also makes it easier for her to frame Yu Xuan or Li Tian'er.
"What were you doing afterwards? Did you stay in the room?"
"Of course! I was so angry that I didn't feel like doing anything else, so I took a shower and went to bed."
"Did you notice the noise outside?"
"No, I was so annoyed that I couldn't care about anything else! You damaged my confidence."
Liu Xiao said confidently, and there was nothing wrong with her body movements.
"I didn't think about this well. I didn't expect that a beauty like you would easily doubt yourself..." Jiang Qian said sincerely, "When did you put the room card in my pocket?"
"When you just entered the venue, I said, I was interested in you the first time I saw you!"
"Thank you for your kindness... Oh, by the way, there is one more thing, regardless of the basis, who do you think is most likely to harm me?" Jiang Qian used the same trick again.
"Li Tian'er!"
Jiang Qian remained calm: "Why?"
Liu Xiao lowered her voice and said with great confidence: "She is mentally ill!"
...
Jiang Qian moved to Yu Xuan.
Looking at the face in front of him, Jiang Qian reminded himself: This woman in front of him is not my sister at all. She is just the dungeon boss who has transformed into my sister's skin.
After preparing himself mentally, Jiang Qian put on an expression of deep affection between brother and sister.
"It's your turn, sister."
Yu Xuan looked up at Jiang Qian, and complex emotions such as nostalgia, regret, and pain flashed in her eyes.
She turned her grief into strength, adjusted her emotions, and began to answer questions for her brother:
"I have been waiting for you to send me the script, Qian, but I didn't wait... So, I had to temporarily say goodbye to the director and return to the room, but, I..."
Yu Xuan couldn't say anything more, covering his cheeks, tears welling up in his eyes.
Jiang Qian's heart twitched. Except on TV, he had hardly ever seen Yu Xuan cry.
This scene was heart-touching... Jiang Qian calmed down his feelings.
"What did you see, all the details, tell me, okay?" Jiang Qian coaxed.
"Well... blood, there was a knife stuck in your back, my God! A lot of blood... My first reaction at the time: That's not you! But the reality is so cruel..."
Yu Xuan never talks so much, she always talks clearly and gets to the point first... But Jiang Qian still showed full patience: "Anything else? The state of the room, for example, is the window open or closed, is it different from the state before you left?"
"The window is open... But this is the 8th floor!"
Her implication is, will someone risk breaking in through the window from the 8th floor with the intention of committing a crime?
This is an interesting reaction.
Jiang Qian said calmly: "Is the bathroom door open?"
"Bathroom? Well... It seems to be, it is open."
Well, the testimony is consistent with the crime scene in the photo.
That's right.
Jiang Qian once again recalled the situation after he entered Yu Xuan's room.
Then, he asked Yu Xuan's last question: "Sister, who do you think is most likely to harm me?"
"Um... Liu Xiao!"
"Why her?"
"She loves you but cannot get you, so she will definitely want to destroy you."
Jiang Qian nodded thoughtfully.
"Mr. Jiang, do you have any other questions for the three ladies?"
"No."
"And you can ask me again! I mean, I will answer your questions truthfully, but I will charge a fee..." The host winked at Jiang Qian playfully, "For example: your eyes, forehead or tongue, teeth, you have to give something."
Jiang Qian looked at the host, his eyes gradually deepened.
He remembered the evaluation of himself in the previous notebook. Now it seems that it was not a gratuitous ridicule, but this copy really likes to make people "incomplete".
"Have you thought it through? You have less than 10 minutes left. If you still don't get the correct answer after 10 minutes..."
"No hurry," Jiang Qian slowly raised the corner of his mouth, "I already have the answer."
