ICS Homicide Tracking

The hotel is still operating normally, but at the request of ICS, all the rooms on the floor where Lu Qi's accident occurred were sealed off, and the upstairs and downstairs rooms were also unoccupied.

Yuan Xin led people into the scene first, Shi Han opened the toolbox, and took out a set of equipment for Yan Ran.In the past, he would keep spare masks and gloves in his toolbox. Since Yanran entered ICS, he has two extra copies in his toolbox, and Yanran's use is included in the plan.

A few people walked into the room slowly, and the hotel repeatedly confirmed that they had taken fire prevention measures. The ceiling of each room was equipped with sprinklers, and the front was also made of fireproof paint, so the fire did not spread, but it was not clear Why did the sprinkler in Luqi's room not respond when the fire broke out.

When Shi Han and Yan Ran approached Lu Qi's room, Yuan Xin was helping his younger brother Yuan Rong to look at the sprinkler.

Yuan Rong cautiously approached the sprinkler, took a closer look, and immediately noticed something was wrong, and said to the people below: "The spout has been painted? Glue, the sensor has also been destroyed."

Yuan Rong used tools to remove the sprinkler and took it away, hoping to find fingerprints on it.

When they watched the scene again, they paid more attention to what the former assistant Wang Tian said. She did keep the room in order, and there was a row of hair gel and pomade on the toilet table, but there was a bottle missing in the middle.

Yuan Xin compared the traces, and this distance just matched the explosive hairspray.

Shi Han kept walking around the room, looking for traces of the third person besides Lu Qi and his assistant.Since the murderer appeared at the scene of the crime, he would definitely leave traces of the crime.

Yan Ran followed Shi Han to check the items one by one, but? He always felt that Lu Qi had nothing to do with these items.

"Probably because Lu Qi is really too lazy to touch these things, so I can't feel Lu Qi's memories of his life." Yan Ran regretfully shook his head.

"Who?" Suddenly a voice came from outside, and the person guarding the door immediately chased after him.

Yuan Rong, who was standing on a chair checking the curtains, was startled when he heard the sound? He jumped and fell back, but luckily he was caught immediately.

Yan Ran caught Yuan Rong who fell with one hand, and held Shi Han with the other to prevent him from falling on the bed and destroying the evidence.He pushed his left foot back and immediately found a support point for his body, preventing all three of them from falling onto the bed.

But? When his left heel touched the edge of the bed, there was a sudden sound. Then he straightened the two of them, squatted down to look at the edge of the bed, and knocked on the bed board.

"The bed is hollow." Yan Ran continued to knock along the edge of the bed, his voice gradually getting lower and lower, as if he had encountered a "solid" place.

Yan Ran squatted lower, and there seemed to be a gap between the edge of the bed and the head of the bed, "Shi Han, help me move the bedside table."

"Okay." Shi Han originally thought that the bedside table was made of solid wood, and it might take a lot of effort, but when he exerted a little force, the cabinet slid open by itself. After a closer look, it turned out that the bedside table was equipped with pulleys.

Yan Ran pulled back the bed cover, and finally saw a cabinet hidden in the bed board next to the bedside table. He took a deep breath and opened the cabinet. After seeing the contents of the cabinet, his expression suddenly froze.

"Shihan...I'm sleepy." After Yan Ran finished speaking, he grabbed Shihan's hand? His consciousness gradually became chaotic.

When he opened his eyes again, he was still squatting in this position, but Shi Han and Section Chief Yuan were gone, and what was in front of him was not the ruins after the fire, but a very clean room.

Yan Ran immediately looked at the mirror on the dressing table beside him, and the current him was Lu Qi's perspective.

I saw Lu Qi squatting on the bedside to check the USB flash drive in the cabinet. Suddenly, there seemed to be a movement in the bed. Lu Qi lay on the bed and listened carefully, only to hear the faint voice getting closer.

Suddenly, the cabinet he had just pushed was pushed out of the bed, and then a woman crawled out from under the bed.

Lu Qi immediately called for someone, trying to escape from here, but his stomach hurt so much that he staggered while running.I just changed the door lock in the morning, but I don’t know why it can’t be opened all of a sudden?

He looked in horror at the woman who crawled out of the bed. She was wearing a mask and covered herself very well. She dragged him onto the bed.

At that time, he thought it was just a fan who came to him, so he immediately coaxed: "Are you a fan? I will give you autographs and group photos. If you want to do something else, you can discuss it. Don't be impulsive!"

The woman sneered, as if she didn't think about what he said at all, she took out a knife and inserted it into Lu Qi's chest involuntarily.

She indifferently wiped the blood off her hands, went to the bathroom, found a bottle of hairspray, opened it with a knife and placed it beside the dressing table.

Before Lu Qi's consciousness disappeared, he watched the woman crawl into the bottom of the bed again, installed the cabinet, and pulled the bedside table.

Yan Ran closed his eyes tightly, wanting to see it again? Seeing more, he still didn't know why Lu Qi couldn't open the door suddenly, and he didn't know why Lu Qi suddenly had a stomachache. Could it be that the whole thing was a coincidence?Or is someone doing this on purpose?

Who is that woman?Is it a fan of Lu Qi, or someone invited by Chang Xu?Does it have anything to do with swapping kills?

But no matter how he explores the truth, because Lu Qi's consciousness has disappeared, he can't see more, and can only open his eyes and return to reality.

Shi Han had already helped him to the door and sat down. Seeing Yan Ran woke up, Shi Han unscrewed it? He gave him a bottle of mineral water and asked, "How is it?"

Yan Ran turned his head to look at the bedroom door of the hotel room, still didn't know how to explain it, so he told Shi Han exactly what he saw.

"Shi Han, I have another question." Yan Ran said, and brought Shi Han back to the scene, pointing to the hidden cabinet next to the bed and asked, "We did an experiment, and the explosion of the hairspray jar was only enough to run three meters , How did the murderer manage to put the hidden cabinet back and close the bedside table in such a short period of time? Is it because there is a helper?"

Yuan Xin can answer this question. He took out a thread from the bottom of the bedside table and explained: "As long as the murderer gets under the bed and pulls the thread connecting the bedside table and the hidden cabinet, the bedside table can be returned to the bedside. So Explain that the murderer came to this room before the incident."

The thread of the bedside table is frayed, and the hidden cabinet is returned to the bedside by the power of the bedside table, so the murderer has been here before and conducted experiments here.

Yan Ran looked at the bed, did he go out? In the next room, the hotel manager had been standing not far away waiting for orders, and immediately came over to open the door when he saw this.Yan Ran went straight into the room and knocked on the bed in another room, but this bed was solid, and there was no hidden cabinet beside the bed.

Yan Ran raised his eyebrows curiously, and asked the manager, "Have you changed the bed in Lu Qi's room?"

The manager was taken aback, nodded and said: "Have you changed it? Lu Qi asked for it. He said he lives here permanently and is our VIP, so we will generally agree to any request."

"You ordered?" Yan Ran asked.

The manager shook his head and said, "No, the bed was customized by Lu Qi himself. We just need to move the old bed away, and we didn't move in the new bed."

Yuan Xin came over and heard Yan Ran talking about the bed, so he asked the manager, "So you don't have the design drawings for this bed?"

The manager thought about it carefully, and replied: "But? There is a design company. I remember the day they moved the bed in. I saw the truck underneath. It was designed in depth. You can go to them and ask. .”

Yan Ran was silent when he heard the sound, but he was shocked in his heart, and it was another deep design...

"Okay, we got it." Yan Ran said, turned and walked out of the room, looking at Lu Qi's room and lost in thought.Yuan Xin originally planned to enter the room, but saw that Yan Ran was still standing there motionless, so he reminded: "You should come in, just now? It seems that someone was sneaking around outside, and the people from the investigation department have already gone after him." Okay, for safety's sake, everyone be careful."

Yan Ran nodded, and when he raised his foot to go back to the room, he asked the investigation department colleague who was guarding the door: "Section Chief Yuan just now? Did you see the person who said it? Clearly?"

The colleague from the investigation department shook his head and said, "Look? I'm not sure, she's wearing a mask, she's small, she should be a girl."

"Female?" Yan Ran had an idea in his mind, what evidence should the murderer have left behind at the scene.

So he immediately went back to the room and saw that the Physical Evidence Division was studying the USB flash drive in the hidden cabinet. He looked at Shi Han and pointed to the direction of the bed.

Shi Han roughly understood what he meant, and smiled wryly? He nodded and reached out to help lift the bed, but Yan Ran stopped him immediately.

"I'll do my best. I mean I want you to stand aside." Yan Ran took Shi Han's hand and took him aside like a child, "Your hand is soft and weak, Just stand there obediently?"

After all, Yan Ran grabbed the edge of the bed and lifted it up. The structure of the bottom of the bed can be seen in full view. What design drawings are needed.

"Wait! Yanran, hold on!" Yuan Xin saw something strange with sharp eyes, and immediately came to check, only to find a thin layer of water stains on the bottom of the bed.

The Physical Evidence Section immediately started sampling and collected the water on the ground.Yan Ran remained still and tried his best to wait until the physical evidence department collected all the evidence, but suddenly he felt that the weight in hand was much lighter, and when he turned around, he saw that Yuan Rong had also come to help.

"Let's stand up the bed so we don't have to prop it up." Yuan Rong smiled, looking very sunny.

Yan Ran nodded, and with Yuan Rong's cooperation, they raised the bed together, and the view under the bed was wider.

"This is..." Yan Ran squatted down. The hidden compartment on the wall under the bed is only about 40 centimeters long. It looks like a place where wiring is hidden, but the hidden compartment does not seem to be open, but Can only be pulled away.

Yan Ran simply handed over the fine work to the Physical Evidence Division, only to see that after the secret compartment was carefully taken out, there was a wooden board behind it.

"Cabinet?" Yuan Xin knocked on the material, thinking that it should be a hotel cabinet or something.

Yan Ran's eyes lit up, and he immediately went back to the next room, found a similar location, opened the closet, and saw that the secret compartment was indeed connected to the next room.

Yan Ran looked down at the ground, and saw that there were more than one abrasion marks on the ground, which seemed to be covered up deliberately, so he used a carpet to cover it up.

So what Section Chief Yuan said just now is correct, there are indeed people who have come and gone here to test the subsequent murders.

Collecting all the evidence, combined with the memories of Lu Qi that Yan Ran saw before his death, they cracked most of this so-called secret room.

"First of all, we are sure that the murderer is a woman who has been in and out of the crime scene many times. It is a deliberate murder." Li Qi said, writing clues on the clipboard.

Then he continued: "The murderer is very good? I am sure that Lu Qi will be in the room on the day of the crime, then this person must be very familiar with Lu Qi, or Lu Qi's stomachache is caused by the murderer."

Having said that, Yuan Xin took out a report and said: "Have we tested the sample brought by the forensic doctor? The half-digested black semi-solid in the deceased's stomach contained eggs, cocoa powder, starch, and dairy products. It should be a piece of Chocolate? Cake, and we found histamine, the acid-boosting drug, in the cake.”

Shi Han nodded, "No wonder the gastric juice of the deceased is so sour."

Yuan Xin nodded and continued: "We also did a laboratory test on the deceased's intestinal secretions. The deceased should have been eating iced drinks and iced food a few days before the incident, which caused the stomachache."

Shi Han followed his words and continued, "Because of acute gastroenteritis, the deceased wanted to go back to rest that day, but then he ate a piece of cake mixed with histamine, and his stomach acid surged, causing his stomach pain to intensify. No ability to escape."

The author has something to say: even the most perfect premeditated crime will leave flaws.

It's like... I have liked you for many years, even if I hid it deeply, but when I saw you for the first time, I lied, but my eyes didn't.
