The Death Plan of a Hero of the Empire

"reason?"

"First of all, the monster's motivation is tooth extraction." Lunier said, "It did hurt Des and pulled out his teeth, but other than that, Des has no other losses, no matter in terms of money, Or other damage to physical health, this monster seems to be just for tooth extraction, may I ask whose monster would only want to pull teeth for people? And it didn’t take away the teeth, as if it was tooth extraction for tooth extraction, although it didn’t It is ruled out that there is such a monster who likes to pull people's teeth, but the chances are too small."

"There is also the way the monster entered Des's room. According to common sense, it is unimaginable. The doors and windows are closed, and it is on the fifth floor. It is completely in a state of secret room. Even leaving is from the balcony. The fifth floor is so high. It doesn’t rule out that it climbed up and escaped, but if that’s the case, the residents who were awakened by Des’s screams should also notice if a monster crawled on the balcony. right."

"And from the beginning to the end, Des didn't see the real appearance of the monster. He only knew that it was tall and had a strange outline, but this was not impossible to disguise, and the claw marks on the canvas were also quite suspicious. , a tall monster with a pair of sharp claws, walking in this room, but leaving no traces other than this claw mark, is this reasonable? And why is it a canvas? Instead of leaving claw marks elsewhere? "

"And I found some relatively new traces on the guardrail on the balcony. These traces are very similar to the traces left by some tools. If someone uses tools, it is not a problem to travel quickly from both sides of the balcony. impossible things."

"If someone uses those tools to travel from both sides at an extremely fast speed, as long as the props are prepared in advance, it is completely possible to pretend to be a monster, pull out Des's teeth and then quickly evacuate, which also makes the secret room unbreakable. , everything makes sense."

After Lu Nier finished his guess, Li Jie thought about it and added another sentence.

"My opinion is the same as that of Lunier. I think if it is man-made, then the motive should be related to this exhibition. It may be that one of the two painters has some hatred with Des, or it is purely to reduce competitors. "

"Indeed, after all, Des said that he came from another place, and it was only a few days ago. The most likely reason why he can cause such a disaster here is because of the purpose of his coming here, which is to attract the youth art exhibition." .”

After listening to the words of her two team members, Alonia was a little relieved.

"That's right, I think so too, but there's one thing I haven't figured out... There are such marks on both sides of the balcony. It can't be that Des's two neighbors partnered to punish him, right? But if It means that a person on both sides deliberately created traces on the other side to confuse people in order to avoid others finding the traces. "

"Maybe the prisoner is too stupid? Inexperienced?" Lunier guessed.

"It's possible, but I don't like to guess the criminals are too stupid. After all, there are only a few real idiots. Come on, let's verify it."

After Alonya finished speaking, she took Lunier and Li Jie with her, ready to carry out a search.

"I'll search Corot's, and you two will search Robert's."

"Yes."

Alonya knocked on the doors of the two of them first, but they were not in the room now and had already gone out.

So Alonia simply called the front desk and asked her to take out the spare key to open the door.

Because of the investigator's authority, even if the front desk didn't want to do this, they still had to do it.

Lunier and Li Jie were also able to enter Robert's room smoothly.

As soon as he walked into the room, Lu Nier smelled a sour smell, because there was a puddle of vomit on the carpet, Lu Nier bypassed the puddle of vomit, put on gloves, and the two began to search the room Come.

Different from Des's room, this young painter named Robert is obviously a very sloppy private life person, he is not particular about personal hygiene, and the whole room is messy.

Lunier also saw an overturned wine bottle on the table. Judging from the alcohol content and brand name on the surface of the bottle, it was a kind of spirits.

Robert's room also has a complete set of painting tools, and there is also an unfinished painting. This is a landscape oil painting, the content is a city square, judging from the clock tower building in the background of the square, it should be the imperial capital central square.

Although his private life is very sloppy, Robert's painting skills are still okay.

Lu Nier didn't care about these, but searched the room separately with Li Jie, and soon, he found a headgear.

This headgear is very strange, it is long and tall, and it looks like you have grown a lot taller out of thin air, but in fact, it should not affect your vision, because the part of the headgear that exposes the eyes is actually at the lower end of the headgear.

The shape of the hood looks hideous. In addition to the hood, Lu Nier also found a ladder. This ladder can be stretched and stretched, and it is not short after unfolding. Lu Nier visually inspected it. You can climb directly from the ladder to the opposite side, or you can walk across the opposite side boldly.

With this key evidence, it is basically certain that what Robert committed was correct.

Lu Nier collected the evidence, then searched the room again, and after confirming that he had missed nothing, he went to meet Alonia.

But when Lunier found Alonia, he found that Alonia was looking at a pair of blood-stained tooth extraction forceps, and beside it was a ladder exactly like Robert's, in addition to a pair of claws, It looked like claw marks made on Des's painting.

"What did you find there?"

"Found the hood and ladder that may have been used to camouflage the monster."

"You found it too?" Alonia was a little surprised, she pointed to the evidence she found, "I found it here too."

There are evidences in the rooms of the two people, which is a bit beyond Alonia's expectation.

"Could it be that two people really partnered to punish him? What did this Des do..."

After finding Des, asking him to confirm the headgear, and comparing the claw marks on the canvas, these evidences were also confirmed to be authentic.

Afterwards, things went very smoothly. Robert and Ke Luo returned one after another, and they were directly arrested by Lu Nier, who had been prepared for a long time.

"Let go! What are you doing?"

"Why are you arresting me? Can investigators do whatever they want?!"

The two were brought directly to the Bureau of Investigation for interrogation, and Des also brought them here as witnesses.

When these three people were put in the same interrogation room, something interesting happened.

"You two bastards, why are you ganging up on me?!" Des asked angrily, "My teeth! Do you know how much a set of dentures cost? I'm going to make you two pay until I go bankrupt!"

"Treat you? I want to punish you, but it's a pity that I was too late, and I was preempted by that tooth-pulling monster!" Robert replied not to be outdone, "You bastard should have all his teeth pulled out, No... More than just teeth, that monster should pull out your tongue, so that you can close your stinky mouth forever!"

"That's right!" Ke Luo echoed in agreement, "Make your stinky mouth unable to utter a single word!"

"Okay, you two bastards are so arrogant." Des trembled angrily, "I'm a victim! A victim! Even if my usual words may be inappropriate, this can be your invasion of my room, unplug Is there a reason to lose my teeth?!"

"Pull your teeth? That's not what we did."

"If the two of us really want to gang up on you, then it's not just your teeth that have been pulled out!"

Chapter 188 Drawing Fear (3)

The three began to tear each other up in the interrogation room, as if they had some grudge against each other.

The two suspects also seemed to have some grievances with Des. Their words were filled with anger and dissatisfaction with Dess, and they said many times that they wanted to do more extreme things than tooth extraction.

However, one thing is key.

"You said that you didn't pull out Des's teeth?" Alonia asked.

"Yes, it's really not ours," replied Robert, "I admit I wanted to fix him, but definitely not in this way, and I said it would be worse than pulling teeth, but even if we pull teeth , we probably wouldn’t dare.”

"Me too. I really didn't pull his teeth. It's not worth it for this kind of person. How could I take the risk of getting into the game and pull his teeth at night?" Ke Luo also replied, "I don't know Why was that kind of thing found in my room, but I definitely didn't put it there, someone must have framed me."

"Then why are you so hostile to Des?"

Robert and Ke Luo looked at each other, and then said in unison.

"Because he deserves a beating."

Afterwards, the two talked about what happened with Des.

Because the three of them are painters from other places, and because they happened to live next door to each other a few days ago, they felt that they were destined to each other at first, and they had a good relationship with each other, and they would hang out in the imperial capital together.

Then, after Des revealed his true nature, the atmosphere between them completely changed.

The first is stinginess. When they went out to play, Des always had various excuses to say that he didn't bring his wallet.

At first, the two of them were also deceived. They really thought that Des didn't bring a wallet, until the three of them just walked out of a bar and encountered a thief...

The thief stole Des's "purse that should have been missing", and then Des ran all the way, chasing the thief out of breath, and finally threw the wallet back to him.

If it's just such a thing, the two of them at most think that Des is relatively stingy.

But what happened after that really made them hate Des.

They suddenly found that their paintings were belittled, and there were bad rumors spreading about them, saying that there was an indescribable secret relationship between the two of them. They seemed to be good friends during the day, but at night...

According to the investigation and questioning of the two people, it was discovered that everything came from Des's mouth.

Not only that, but Des occasionally made excuses to visit the two of them's room to observe the painting process, and made various "little accidents" to destroy the paintings that the two had worked so hard to complete.

And when they realized that this was a "good thing" done by Des, they confronted Dess, but they were insulted by Dess.

This completely ignited their anger, and they chased Des for several streets that day, until Des escaped by a narrow escape when he broke into a patrol station.

After the two calmed down, they were not so angry. The main reason was that they were foreigners and didn't want to make trouble in the imperial capital. If they got into trouble, it would not be easy to handle.

So they held back their anger and usually ignored Des, wanting to spend the period of the exhibition in peace.

Then this kind of thing happened.

"Although we do have enough motives, we won't do this kind of thing. It's not worth putting our future on for such a villain."

"That's right, I think the reason why this bastard's teeth were pulled out was because he did it himself, and the purpose was to frame us!"

"I didn't! You two..."

"Shut up!"

Alonya felt noisy, and the three of them continued to line up after drinking.

Up to now, Alonia actually believes that those two people didn't pull out Des's teeth, because as they said, there is no need to risk their own future for Des, and the evidence in their room is also very strange, It's hidden in an inconspicuous place, but it's not hidden either.

It is also very strange that there are some evidences in each of the two people's rooms. Most people would not separate the evidences and hide them.

What's more, the most important point is that they had the opportunity to dispose of these evidences, because they left this hotel today, if they wanted to dispose of the evidences, then they would have had the opportunity.

But they didn't do that, the evidence was well hidden in the room, it was almost like...

Deliberately want to be found by them.

From this point of view, maybe Des did have some suspicions, but it is more likely that there is a fourth person in this case, one who plays the role of a monster, pulls out Des's teeth, and throws the evidence into the room of two people, The real culprit who framed him.

He first came to the balcony of Des's room from the balcony of his room, and then pretended to be a monster and used tooth extraction pliers to pull out many of Des's teeth. He scratched on the ground, and then made marks on the balcony leading to the room of the two of them, and took the opportunity to stuff the evidence into the room of the two of them.

As for motivation...

Guessing that he had an enmity with Des, and he didn't want to bear the legal consequences, he thought of blaming this case on Robert and Ke Luo, who had a bad relationship with Dess.

Having said that, the two people are currently the most suspected, and there is no reliable alibi. The two of them rushed over to join in the fun when they heard Des's call for help that night, which shows that they were nearby at that time. fully capable of committing crimes.

Alonya thought about it, and decided to temporarily detain the three of them, and let them calm down in the prison.

Regardless of what Des, the reporter, thought about this result, at least the two people expressed their willingness to accept it when they saw that Des was also going to jail. Obviously, they hated Des to a certain extent.

"Wait, I'm the informant, why should I go to jail, I don't want it!"

Ignoring Des's protest, Alonia stuffed the three of them into the cell, and began to investigate the fourth person.

If the real murderer escaped from the balcony, the balcony can be climbed up and down in addition to being climbed left and right with the help of ladders.

When they arrived at the hotel again, the three of them separately asked who lived in the upper and lower rooms of Des's room.

On the upper floor is an ordinary resident named Lanny, and downstairs is also a young painter named Pudo who came to participate in the art exhibition.

In terms of age, Lanny is relatively older, close to 30 years old, and the painter named Pudo is about the same age as Des.

Alonia found the two residents and asked about it.

In addition to Putuo, that Lanny also came for the art exhibition. He is a native of the imperial capital, but his home is far away from here. In order to facilitate the art exhibition and enjoy the paintings, he paid to live here.

This is not surprising, in fact, many people in this hotel are like this, not for the exhibition, but for the artist himself.

The three members of the team came to the balcony of Des's room, and then Lu Nier carefully checked whether there were any traces on the guardrail on the front of the balcony, but there were no useful traces.

It is completely impossible to tell whether the prisoner climbed up or climbed down.

So Alonia called the two of them. The art exhibition hadn't officially started yet, so the painter had a lot of free time, and Lanny also had free time, and they happened to be in their respective rooms.

"Where were you two last night?"

"Sleep." "Me too, after all it was so late."

Lanny and Pudo answered respectively.

"Did you hear anything last night?"

"Of course, the loud screams woke me up directly." "Is it Des? I heard the news. It seems that Robert and Ke Luo pulled his teeth?"

Lu Nier paid attention to the expressions of these two people, but he didn't see anything suspicious, but this level of camouflage was normal.

"You have some criminal suspicions now, can I search your room?"

"No problem...if this clears my suspicions." "Why should I be suspected? Well... yes, but please don't touch things in my room."

After getting the replies from the two people, the three members of the investigation team began to search the rooms of the two people separately.

But this time nothing.

No strange things were found in the rooms of the two of them. Lanny's room was full of out luggage, that is, things like a change of clothes, and they couldn't find even a little big thing.

And Pudo's room is similar to that of Des, with canvases and paints, and other things such as salutes.

There is no evidence related to the case.

After all, the evidence had already been stuffed into the room of those two people.
