Although the investigation of the case has just begun, from Feng Bujue's perspective, he has already surmised the general plot of the "John Herbert Murder Case".
The dead man was most likely a killer hired by Sam; the two made an appointment and cooperated with each other to carry out the assassination.
Last night (because it was past midnight, the crime should be counted as yesterday) at eleven o'clock sharp, Sam made a call to the landline at the scene of the crime as planned, and his purpose was to call the phone at a specific time. time, leading John to a specific location for the killer to sneak attack.
However, what surprised Sam was... John, who was suddenly attacked from behind, actually killed the killer during the struggle. In this way... the identities of the "dead man" and the "murderer" were revealed. exchange.
At this point, Sam could only resort to tricks and rushed to the scene of the crime on the grounds that "something was wrong when he heard something on the phone."
Originally... if you want to play an innocent person, you have to react as an innocent person should; if he doesn't do it, it will look abnormal.
Furthermore, just based on the voice on the phone, Sam couldn't tell what happened on the other end of the phone. After all...he just heard the low moans of two men panting and fighting each other. Who knows? What is happening behind the movement...
Therefore, Sam had to come. He had to at least come and see what the situation was so that he could respond appropriately.
When Sam saw the killer's body, he was relieved.
If this man is captured alive or is still alive, then Sam's crime of "paying a murderer to kill" will definitely be exposed.
Fortunately... now there is no evidence of death.
…………
As of 2:30 in the morning, the on-site investigation work was still being carried out in an orderly manner, and the crowd of onlookers outside the manor began to gradually disperse.
Most of the people watching the fun are like this... Although there is no need to buy tickets, it is boring to stand for a long time. Everyone gathers together to chew the roots of their tongues for a while, and then they still have to do whatever they have to do next.
However, at this point in time, another unusual thing happened...
"Chief, I have someone here who wants to see you." This was conveyed through the intercom by a police officer guarding the door of the manor.
"Who is it?" Daost, who was busy directing at the scene, heard this and immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and responded in an impatient tone.
"He said his name is Zuo Yan, and he also said he has important information about this case and must tell you in person." the police officer replied.
"Huh?" Daost thought for a few seconds, "Okay...find someone to bring him in and go directly to the reception room on the second floor to wait for me."
The above conversation did not happen in front of Feng Bujue, so he was unable to interfere.
So, ten minutes later, in the reception room on the second floor, Brother Jue and Zuo Yan... met again by chance.
This room, which is not too far from the crime scene, has been temporarily used by the police as a room to collect testimonies. More than ten people (mostly staff), including John, Sam and Feng Bujue, are all there. This is where police officers will be interviewed and their first-hand testimonies will be recorded here.
"Eh? Such a coincidence." The moment he saw Zuo Yan, Brother Jue was still quite surprised, but he didn't show his surprise at all. On the contrary... only half a second later, he did it as if nothing had happened This is the current reaction.
"Uh..." Zuo Yan heard this, hesitated for a moment, and then continued, "Brother Jue?" He seemed to have just remembered the other person's name, "Why are you here too?"
In fact, Zuo Yan did not spend time thinking about the question "What is the name of the person in front of me and how should I call him?", but he was thinking about "What kind of response should I use when he greets me like this?" It’s more appropriate.”
Feng Bujue saw through this in an instant, and started a series of reasoning——
"Zuo Yan's reaction is not slow and his acting skills are not bad. His performance at this moment is enough to deceive the eyes of ordinary people.
"But... this is by no means the level of his 'temporary decision and immediate implementation'. Obviously... this reaction is one of his established plans.
"His 'thinking time' also proves this. With his ability, that one second of 'hesitation' is not enough for him to complete a process of 'from zero to one' and 'making something out of nothing', but it is Enough for him to make a 'choice'; he... or rather... he and Vidocq have undoubtedly known about 'I am here' for a long time, and have also imagined several scenarios when they meet me, and have some thoughts about my possible Each 'way of saying hello' has a corresponding 'reaction' one by one, and what I see now... is one of them.
"Then...if nothing else happens..."
Thinking of this, Feng Bujue began to quietly search every corner and shadow of the room with his peripheral vision.
"That Vidocq guy... has 100% sneaked into this house. Maybe he has been in and out several times...
“This time, I no longer have the same advantage as I did in the bar, because he has become wary of me... The fact that I was completely unaware of his presence until this moment is a good proof.
"Furthermore, since Zuo Yan has now appeared in the 'light', it means that Vidocq's work in the 'dark' has basically been completed. He must have seen the crime scene and made a similar decision to me. , or even further reasoning...
"And the rest... is Zuo Yan's job, talking to the people involved in the case, collecting testimonies and evidence, so as to confirm Victor's reasoning and bring the murderer to justice.
"These things... don't take too long at all...
"Chapter 33 is only halfway through, it's not okay for you to solve the case so quickly..."
He thought a lot in his mind, but the time in reality was only a moment.
The next second, Feng Bujue continued Zuo Yan's question and said: "Ah... it's a long story..."
Then, he used very concise language to explain the reason why he appeared here. Of course... it was based on the beginning and logic of "encountering Sam in the bar"; from the perspective of Zuo Yan and Victor, there was really no flaw in this set of rhetoric.
After the two chatted for a few minutes, Doster came.
When the sheriff walked to Zuo Yan's side, he first looked at the latter from head to toe, and then he naturally felt a little disgusted because "this kid seems to know the surname Feng".
"Hey, young man, I heard you have 'important information about this case'?" Doster said in a very impolite tone, "And you have to 'tell the sheriff in person'?"
"Um... who are you?" Zuo Yan actually knew from Victor that this man was the sheriff, but he still had to pretend he didn't know.
"I am the sheriff." Doster said coldly, "Tell me, what do you want to tell me?" He paused and added, "I have to declare in advance... If this is a prank, or 'just talking nonsense to see the crime scene', the police have the right to pursue your legal responsibility..."
He didn't finish his words, because when he said this, Zuo Yan completely ignored him, took out a mobile phone from his pocket, and dialed a number.
