dead dog

Li Shuangbin's body is still lying in the backstage of the theater. After they left, the time in the spiritual cabin continued to lose. There was an electronic display on the wall, and the time and date were broadcast accurately: [-]:[-] p.m., October [-]st three points.

The work permit was thrown on the dressing table, leaving a layer of dust on it.

Ye Chuyang picked up the work card and blew away the dust on the surface, revealing the one-inch photo of Li Shuangbin printed on the work card.Li Shuangbin in the photo is very thin, but Li Shuangbin lying on the ground at this time is very fat; the work permit was applied for two years ago, and Li Shuangbin's figure has also doubled in these two years.

In order to verify that the person at work and the corpse were indeed the same person, Ye Chuyang wanted to straighten the corpse. He squatted next to the corpse and smelled the smell of dried blood that hadn’t dispersed. When he saw the corpse from a close distance, deep blood holes could be seen in the bones. The useless man raised his hand, not daring to reach out and touch the corpse.

Ye Chuyang said: "Secretary Bian, help turn him over."

In fact, he wanted Jiang Ying to help, but he was angry with Jiang Ying, and Jiang Ying was injured, so he deliberately ignored Jiang Ying and asked Bian Xiaocheng to help.

Bian Xiaocheng was also a coward. He shy away from touching the corpse. When he was at a loss, Jiang Ying pulled the corpse away. Then Jiang Ying turned the corpse upside down, revealing a face covered in blood with his chin covering his neck.

Jiang Ying said again: "Xiaoya, pass me the bottle of water on the table."

On the table was a bottle of mineral water from an unknown year and month, and there was still half a bottle of water in it.Facia handed him the water and asked, "Is this man Li Shuangbin? The gap between fat and thin is too big."

Jiang Ying poured the whole bottle of water down the corpse's face, washing out the face so that the nose and eyes could be clearly seen, and then asked Ye Chuyang, "Is it Li Shuangbin?"

Ye Chuyang carefully compared the photos at work: "It's the same person, they both have a mole on their chins."

Jiang Ying took the work card from his hand, frowned when he saw the photo, and said, "It looks familiar."

Ye Chuyang: "Have you seen him?"

Jiang Ying looked at it carefully for a moment, then turned his ID card over, turned towards Ye Chuyang, and said, "Does it look like Jia Mingkai?"

Ye Chuyang thought for a while: "Jiang Haiyi's former driver?"

Jiang Ying: "Yes, Li Shuangbin with a thin body is very similar to Jia Mingkai. Jia Mingkai also has a mole, but it doesn't grow on the chin, but grows behind the ear."

Ye Chuyang said: "It's not surprising that the people involved in the case can find comparison characters in Jiang Xiang's spiritual cabin. Yue Yang and Yuexuan are Zhang Jianing and Zhang Jiawen, so Jia Mingkai is Li Shuangbin."

Jiang Ying: "In that case, does Pan Ran also have a comparison character?"

Ye Chuyang nodded: "In theory, that's true, but this person may not have appeared so far."

Bian Xiaocheng: "Dr. Ye, Mr. Jiang, should we find out how this person died? A few days ago, I felt that the situation we encountered was like a puzzle-solving game. Only then can the story continue.”

Facia rolled up her sleeves and touched the body back and forth: "Then quickly find clues, Brother Haiyang and the others search for evidence in this way."

Among the four people present, only Jiang Ying and Facia dared to touch the corpse. Ye Chuyang and Bian Xiaocheng consciously groped around the corpse.

Ye Chuyang remembered that when the body was found, the body was covered by a pile of clothes. At this time, the clothes were piled aside, so he picked up the clothes one by one and shook them off a few times, trying to find some clues from the pile of clothes. When picking up the fourth dress, Bian Xiaocheng suddenly shouted: "Dr. Ye, there is a mobile phone."

A black sequin skirt wrapped around a black cased mobile phone, which is very inconspicuous, if it wasn't for Bian Xiaocheng's eyes and quick reaction, it would have been covered up for the second time.

Ye Chuyang picked up the phone and found that the case was stained with blood and was dirty, so he said, "Jiang Ying, there is a phone here."

Jiang Ying caught the phone with the hand that had just touched the corpse, picked up a piece of clothing and wiped it casually, then opened the phone and found dozens of selfies of Li Shuangbin. This person is ugly but very narcissistic. , love selfies.

Jiang Yingdao: "They are all selfies of the deceased, and they should be the deceased's mobile phone."

Ye Chuyang leaned over to look at the photos: "When was the last one taken?"

Jiang Ying clicked a few times, then looked around for a week: "It was taken here."

He walked a few steps forward, walked to a row of dressing tables facing the clothes rack, compared the photos in his mobile phone, and said, "The deceased was standing here when the photo was taken."

The last photo was taken of Li Shuangbin in the mirror. The person who took the photo was Li Shuangbin himself. Li Shuangbin was wearing pure black short sleeves, holding his mobile phone in one hand and touching his hair in the other. Covering his face with the phone, he took a photo of his upper body in the mirror.

Ye Chuyang looked at the photo carefully with his glasses on, pointed to the lower right corner of the photo, and said, "Zoom in here."

Jiang Ying dragged the lower right corner of the photo to the middle, and made the photo the largest: "What's wrong?"

Ye Chuyang frowned for a while and said, "Is there a hand behind the clothes rack?"

Jiang Ying became cautious, zoomed out the photo slightly, then adjusted the brightness, checked carefully, and said, "That's right, it's a hand, and it's wearing black gloves."

This is a hand wearing a black glove, holding a black object similar to a wooden handle. Only a small part of the wooden handle is exposed, and the end is hidden behind a black cloak, revealing the side.

Facia ran to the clothes rack and found that the clothes rack had fallen over and the clothes were piled up in a messy pile. She said, "Could it be the murderer? The murderer was hiding behind the clothes rack and was accidentally photographed by the deceased."

Jiang Yingdao: "It's possible, and the murderer is left-handed."

Ye Chuyang: "How do you know the murderer is left-handed?"

Jiang Ying pointed out the photo to him: "Look, this is the murderer's hand. It should be a murder weapon, such as a hammer or an axe. Even if it is not a murder weapon, most people will use their usual hands to hold things. Photo In the photo, the owner of the hand is hiding behind the hanger and facing the deceased, revealing the right hand. The principle of mirror reflection, since the right hand appears in the photo, it is actually the left hand.”

Bian Xiaocheng: "Yes, yes, Mr. Jiang's analysis is right. If the murderer is among the people who have appeared, and they are left-handed, who would it be? Who is the left-hander?"

Jiang Ying put the phone in his pocket and said, "As far as I know, among the people who have appeared so far, only one is left-handed."

Ye Chuyang looked at him and said, "Wu Lili."

Bian Xiaocheng: "But Wu Lili is with us all the time, she has no time to commit crimes."

Facia said: "You are stupid, didn't Wu Lili run away when we entered the haunted house for the second time, and we found it here by chasing her by mistake."

Bian Xiaocheng: "Oh, why did Wu Lili kill this person?"

Ye Chuyang returned to the corpse, observed the corpse and said, "They should have made an appointment to meet here, otherwise Wu Lili would not have prepared the murder weapon in advance. Then what role will this person play in tonight's murder?"

Jiang Yingdao: "Wu Lili is one of the people who planned Jiang Haiyi's death, but she needs a helper. She is responsible for bringing Jiang Haiyi into the haunted house. Her helper needs to hide in the haunted house in advance, kill Jiang Haiyi and leave the haunted house disguised as Jiang Haiyi."

Ye Chuyang walked slowly to Li Shuangbin's feet, squatted on the ground and looked at Li Shuangbin's right foot, and said, "Come and see, is there something stuck on the toe of his shoe?"

Li Shuangbin is wearing a pair of black sneakers. The toe of the upper is designed in a mesh shape, which is uneven. It is a good place to hide dirt. Ye Chuyang found foreign substances that do not belong to this pair of shoes in the mesh, and said: "Like a white powder."

Jiang Ying dipped a little bit with his finger, then rolled it between his fingertips, and said, "It's not white powder, it's silver lacquer."

Facia said: "I remembered, the bed where the fake corpse lay in the haunted house was painted with silver paint, and a lot of it fell off."

Jiang Ying slapped his hands clean, and said, "If the deceased is lying on the camp bed where the fake corpse is lying, and his feet are standing on the railing at the head of the bed, there is a high possibility of paint on the shoe surface."

After finishing speaking, he stood up, pulled Ye Chuyang up again, and said, "It seems that Wu Lili's assistant is Li Shuangbin. As for why Wu Lili killed Li Shuangbin, it may be because of uneven distribution of the spoils or to wipe out the roots."

Ye Chuyang went back to the dressing table again, and said doubtfully, "Li Shuangbin is much stronger than Wu Lili. If Wu Lili wanted to kill Li Shuangbin, she could only attack him from behind. Then Li Shuangbin's death would happen in an instant. But look at the scene, the dressing table All the bottles and cans on the table fell down, even the clothes hanger fell down, and Li Shuangbin even fell seven or eight meters away. It seemed that there was a fight. Will Wu Lili still be Li Shuangbin's opponent?"

Jiang Ying walked over and leaned against the edge of the table: "I don't think there was a fight here. First of all, Li Shuangbin didn't have any injuries on his body, and even his clothes were neat. It was more like he was hit on the back of the head and fell to the ground. As for why It's such a mess... It seems like the murderer deliberately arranged the scene in such a mess."

Ye Chuyang looked at him, frowned and said, "Wu Lili is confusing us? Could she be so thoughtful and smart? If she is so thoughtful, why didn't she think of opening Li Shuangbin's phone to see if there are any clues pointing to her?"

Jiang Ying pondered for a moment, and said, "I can't answer your questions, let's find Wu Lili first."

The electronic display on the wall shows that the time has moved forward by half an hour, and there are still four or ten minutes before the opening of the stage play.

There was a thud, as if something had hit the floor and rolled around twice.

Bian Xiaocheng was stunned for a moment, cold sweat broke out on his back: "What, what's the sound?"

The place where the sound is made is behind the curtain outside the backstage door.

Jiang Ying stared at the slightly trembling curtain, gave them a gesture not to move, and walked towards the curtain silently.

He had only taken two steps when the sound of running footsteps suddenly sounded behind the curtain.He also ran after him, opened the curtain, and saw a figure running out of the theater through the narrow and narrow passage.

Facia is crazy, and she took part in the chase with her skirt: "President Jiang, I will help you!"

Jiang Ying and Facia chased the mysterious man and left the theater.

Ye Chuyang and Bian Xiaocheng came out of the theater a while later. In front of the side entrance of the theater was an empty road without street lights, and the dark road meandered to a dark place.

Bian Xiaocheng suddenly stopped Ye Chuyang with his hands, and asked with a trembling voice, "Dr. Ye, did you hear anything?"

Ye Chuyang: "What sound?"

Before the words fell, two beams of light suddenly shot out in the dark air, and then the sound of the engine of the vehicle sounded.The two beams of light were like the eyes of monsters running in the night, roaring towards them.

Bian Xiaocheng: "Get out of here!"

The car was heading straight towards them, Bian Xiaocheng quickly dodged aside, but Ye Chuyang hesitated for a moment, because he saw the person in the car through the window glass - it was Wu Lili.

Wu Lili looked terrified, and turned the steering wheel quickly with unfamiliar hands, and the car body twisted wildly under her driving.

Before the front of the car hit Ye Chuyang, Ye Chuyang took a few steps back. The front of the car rushed in front of him and hit the flower bed on the side of the road.Half of the front of the car was inserted into the edge of the flower bed, and thick smoke billowed from under the broken hood.

Ye Chuyang quickly opened the car door, and Bian Xiaocheng carried Wu Lili out of the car.

Wu Lili was already unconscious, her face was covered in blood, a broken car window cut a deep gash on the side of her neck, and the blood was flowing out from the wound.

They put Wu Lili on the ground, and Wu Lili grasped Ye Chuyang's fingers with weak strength: "Help me, save me."

Even if Wu Lili in front of him was just a fantasy, Ye Chuyang couldn't do nothing, but he couldn't do anything, he could only think of Jiang Ying in a panic: "Secretary Bian, go and find Jiang Ying."

Bian Xiaocheng stumbles and runs away.

Soon, Wu Lili became weaker and weaker, and finally gave up trying to survive, but she still held onto Ye Chuyang's fingers and looked at Ye Chuyang, as if she had something to say.

Ye Chuyang approached her: "What's wrong? What do you want to say?"

Wu Lili tried to speak, but spit out a mouthful of blood when she opened her mouth, so she let go of Ye Chuyang's hand, and stroked the ground with her blood-stained fingers.The bright red handwriting formed under her fingers. She wrote the character '工' and was about to write the fourth stroke, but she ran out of strength.

Jiang Ying came back with a man. He found a bundle of ropes from somewhere, and tied the man's hands behind his back. He handed the man to Bian Xiaocheng, went to Ye Chuyang and squatted down, and saw that Wu Lili was motionless. Lying on the ground, the posture seems to be dead.

Jiang Ying raised his eyebrows and asked, "Dead?"

Ye Chuyang remained silent, silently looking at the handwriting on the ground.

Jiang Ying soon discovered the writing left by Wu Lili, and said, "She wrote the word ''? What does it mean?"

Ye Chuyang: "I remember her habit of writing radicals at the end."

Jiang Ying also remembered that Wu Lili had written them an IOU to protect Pan Ran. When writing her name, she first wrote the word "Wu" below it, and then wrote the mouth.

Jiang Ying looked at the bright red character '工', curled his lips, and said with a sneer, "Gong...Jiang? It's me again."

Ye Chuyang also suspected that the unfinished word was Jiang Ying's 'Jiang', but this was an unsolvable answer, so he simply ignored it, turned his head to look at the man whose arm was being held by Bian Xiaocheng and Facia, and found that he It was the last person who had been missing—the man in the suit and glasses.

After Jiang Haiyi's death, there were only nine people left in the playground; Wu Lili, a girl named Jiang Jiang, and three men.Among the three men, one was Zhang Jiawen, the other was Li Shuangbin, and the other was missing all the time. At this time, Jiang Ying found him.

This person seemed to be frightened by the scene in front of him. He stared blankly at Wu Lili who was lying on the ground, and stammered, "She, she, she, she died?"

Ye Chuyang walked up to him and asked, "Who are you?"

"My name is Lu Xiangyang."

"Were you eavesdropping in the backstage of the theater just now?"

"What is eavesdropping? I was looking for a way out. I searched and searched to find the backstage of the theater. I thought the people inside were bad people."

Ye Chuyang looked at his face carefully: "Have you brought your ID card?"

He said, "In the inside pocket of my coat."

Ye Chuyang took out a card bag from him, which contained an ID card, and the numbers on the ID card were reversed, only the three characters of Lu Xiangyang were arranged in an orderly manner in the name.

Ye Chuyang looked at his ID card, handed it to Jiang Ying, and said, "The date of birth is still messed up."

Jiang Ying caught it and glanced at him, and asked him directly: "How old are you this year?"

Lu Xiangyang: "36, it says on the ID card."

Jiang Ying: "How long ago were you born?"

Lu Xiangyang was impatient: "It was 1968."

Ye Chuyang and Jiang Ying looked at each other, and Jiang Ying said, "It's similar to Zhang Jiawen, Zhang Jianing and Li Shuangbin."

Ye Chuyang asked: "Do you know Wu Lili?" He pointed at Wu Lili, "That's her."

Lu Xiangyang said firmly: "I don't know."

His eyes dodged, obviously lying.

Ye Chuyang asked again: "Then do you know Li Shuangbin?"

This time Lu Xiangyang's gaze was very firm: "I don't know him either."

Ye Chuyang dragged Jiang Ying two steps away, and said in a low voice, "He's lying, he really doesn't know Li Shuangbin, but he knows Wu Lili."

Jiang Ying: "What's the relationship between him and Wu Lili? Wu Lili's accomplice was Li Shuangbin, and the two of them joined forces to kill Jiang Haiyi. This character line is complete."

Ye Chuyang: "But what is Wu Lili's motive for killing Jiang Haiyi? Whether in the spiritual cabin or the real world, Wu Lili regards Jiang Haiyi as a cash cow, and has no motive for killing Jiang Haiyi. We are now encountering the same problem as in the real world .”

Jiang Ying understood: "Wu Lili was also instigated by others, and the real culprit behind killing Jiang Haiyi was someone else."

Ye Chuyang breathed out slowly: "Yes, this person is Anton. Wu Lili gave us half of the clues just now, and the other half of the clues can only be given to us by Wu Lili's accomplices."

Jiang Ying said thoughtfully, "But Li Shuangbin is dead."

Ye Chuyang looked at Lu Xiangyang: "He has something to hide, his identity is not pure."

There was a sound of footsteps, and everyone looked in the direction of the sound. A man walked out from the dim sky. It was Zhang Jiawen.

Zhang Jiawen gasped and said, "I didn't find that person, so I can only come here to meet you first."

As he said that, he saw Lu Xiangyang, and pointed at Lu Xiangyang: "That's him, that's him, so you found him."

Ye Chuyang asked him, "Where did you go just now?"

Zhang Jiawen said: "Didn't you tell me to look for this person? I searched the entire amusement park but couldn't find him. You said that after an hour, no matter whether you find someone or not, you will meet at the theater, so I came here."

Jiang Ying interrogated him very carefully: "Have you entered the theater yet?"

Zhang Jiawen: "No, I came here when I heard a voice from here."

Jiang Ying smiled and said, "Then you don't know that someone died in the backstage of the theater?"

Zhang Jiawen was shocked: "What? Someone died again?"

Jiang Ying suddenly approached him, glanced at his face, and then patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "It seems that we misunderstood you. The murderer who killed Jiang Haiyi was indeed not you."

He returned to Ye Chuyang's side, and the smile on his lips quickly cooled: "He's lying too, he smells like makeup, powder, and perfume from the dressing room backstage. He didn't have this smell on him before we parted an hour ago. He was talking to us. After we separated, we also went backstage at the theater."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Ying went straight to the car that hit the flower bed, opened the trunk, and searched for something inside.

Ye Chuyang asked him, "What are you looking for?"

Jiang Yingdao: "Look for that suit."

Ye Chuyang thought for a while: "The same clothes as Jiang Haiyi's?"

Jiang Ying: "Yes, Wu Lili's accomplice not only killed Jiang Haiyi, but also pretended to be Jiang Haiyi. After pretending to be Jiang Haiyi, he must have taken off the same clothes as Jiang Haiyi. Such an important thing should not be thrown away. The safest way is to take it away. Amusement park. Wu Lili doesn't know how to drive, but she drove away anyway, she was in such a hurry, maybe the clothes were hidden in the car. And there is another question, whose car is this?"

Ye Chuyang: "I'll go to the front to look for the driver's license." He didn't find the driver's license, but found a clothing bag under the back seat: "Jiang Ying, I found it."

Jiang Ying took the bag, and it fell down with the mouth facing down, a shirt and trousers fell on the ground.

Facia: "The clothes are exactly the same as Jiang Haiyi's!"

Ye Chuyang squatted down and picked up every piece of clothing and shook it. With a clang, something fell to the ground.He picked it up, it was a golden metal strip just over an inch long.

Jiang Ying didn't see what it was. Instead, he saw Ye Chuyang smiling. Ye Chuyang was always serious and tense. This was the first time he saw Ye Chuyang smiling in Jiang Xiang's spiritual cabin. .

Jiang Ying asked, "What's wrong?"

Ye Chuyang whispered, "This is the pin on the belt buckle."

Jiang Ying: "Did the murderer leave it behind?"

Ye Chuyang said: "Yes, the murderer changed his clothes, but he didn't change his belt. Maybe he was too impatient when changing clothes and dropped the hanging pin on the belt." He leaned closer to Jiang Ying's ear, "And I don't think The murderer will be so meticulous that he even has an extra belt."

Jiang Ying also hooked his lips into a smile: "That is to say, the murderer is missing a hanging pin on the belt that fastens the waist of his trousers?"

Ye Chuyang: "Yes, but I saw very clearly just now that Li Shuangbin's belt is intact."

Jiang Ying took out Li Shuangbin's cell phone, and called up the photo taken in the dressing room of Li Shuangbin before his death. This time, he finally saw the mystery in it, and laughed softly: "I finally know what happened to Li Shuangbin's case." Why is there such a mess here?"

Ye Chuyang: "Why?"

Jiang Ying: "It's still because of the mirror reflection. As I said just now, the murderer showed his right hand in the mirror, so in reality the murderer used his left hand. But if this photo is reflected in the mirror and then flipped again, then what the murderer showed is not The right hand, but the left hand, in reality the murderer uses the right hand to kill."

Ye Chuyang couldn't understand: "Flip after reflection? Does it have anything to do with the mess at the crime scene?"

Jiang Yingdao: "Of course it does matter. A photo is flipped 180 degrees, and everything in the photo needs to be placed in reverse. This photo is like this. Not only the bottles and cans on the dressing table, but also the clothes rack It means that if the murderer does not want to be found to have flipped the photo, he must put the clothes and cosmetics in reverse order, but the murderer obviously does not have such ample time, so he messed up the scene so that the order of the items cannot be seen."

Hearing this, Ye Chuyang finally felt that the fog was about to clear away and the puzzle was about to be solved: "That is to say, the murderer who killed Li Shuangbin was not left-handed, so he was not Wu Lili, and Li Shuangbin was not Wu Lili's accomplice."

Jiang Ying raised the corners of his lips, and his eyes wandered between Zhang Jiawen and Lu Xiangyang: "The two of them, one is the murderer who killed Li Shuangbin, and the other is Wu Lili's accomplice."
