Chapter 16 Case 1
Chapter 16 Case 1
▍Real money for gold
Shi Yan bought a bottle of mineral water from nowhere, walked to the middle of the car, and put it on the aisle.
"Have you played it? It doesn't matter if you haven't played it. It's very simple. Whoever faces the bottle will have his turn to answer." Shi Yan didn't mean to ask for everyone's opinions, so he decided on this matter.
Tough and decisive.
Even so, no one dared to say a word.
He has an aura of calmness and prestige, as long as he stands there, everyone will be suppressed by his aura, and his aura is always short when facing him.
Unable to control self disobedience.
Even the choking voice has no confidence, as if his own weakness has been discovered, and the small thoughts in his heart are exposed to the outside, and there is nowhere to hide.
The only exception in the audience was the curly-haired man.
He was very obedient, but he didn't feel the slightest fear of the other party.
On the contrary, they are so close that people feel that the two are very familiar.
After Shi Yan spoke, the curly-haired man sat down first, "Since we want to play, it would be better for everyone to sit together? Form a circle."
"Yeah." Shi Yan nodded slightly and sat down.
The others looked at each other in blank dismay, hesitated for a few seconds, and found seats to sit down.
Everyone looked at Shi Yan anxiously, not knowing what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd.
"Brother, how do you play?" The curly-haired man, as a representative of the public, asked everyone's thoughts very competently.
"Sorting out the timeline," Shi Yan clasped his hands on his lap, lowered his eyes, and said with a cold expression, "Whoever turns the bottle to, must tell the truth about the last time he saw the tour guide."
"Of course," Shi Yan added, "before the group tour today."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, not expecting such a situation at all.
Shi Yan continued: "Today is April 26th. If the game settings are reasonable, the tour guide should have died today, otherwise we have no other means to obtain his death time. As for the specific death time, I will It can only be speculated that the person in the car was not the tour guide himself before the tour group set off."
Shi Yan's words shocked everyone to varying degrees.
It never occurred to them that this living person was not the tour guide himself.
Whether it's behavior or appearance, it's clearly the tour guide himself.
Not to mention some unique marks on his body, there must be no one else who can tear him down like this, right?
The representative of ordinary people once again asked everyone's feelings: "Brother, you can't say that others cut off their own brothers in order to imitate the tour guide, right?"
Just thinking about it hurts, and my lower body shudders.
"This is not something we need to consider. Whether the tour guide is himself or not is not the point. The point is how to find the murderer within three hours." He said a long list, this person obviously missed the point, but was entangled in the last sentence.
But your words are more attractive.
The curly-haired man thought so in his heart, but he only dared to think about it and didn't say it.
He felt that his elder brother was questioning his IQ.
"Since it's my suggestion, I'll say it first."
He casually glanced at the people sitting in a circle, "The first and last time I saw him was on April 21, on the subway. You have also seen the video, but I haven't seen him other than that."
The male college student pondered for a moment and asked him: "Why do you remember the date so clearly? Could it be because that day was the day you killed the tour guide, so you remember it very clearly?"
Shi Yan was not angry at the boy's sharp questioning, nor did he refute, but just responded flatly: "I have a better memory, and I remember everything I've met. You can doubt me, and judge for yourself. "
Then he got up and walked to the mineral water, squatted down, and turned the bottle clockwise.
Three seconds later, the bottle stopped, its mouth facing the female college student.
She felt her heart stand still for a moment, and then began beating violently the next second.
She glanced blankly at Shi Yan who had turned around and walked back to her place, then looked at her boyfriend, took a few deep breaths, and said forcefully, "It was April [-]th, and I remember it very clearly, because that day It was the darkest day in my life, and I will never forget that day in my life. It was Saturday, and I didn't have classes. I asked friends from other schools to go out for dinner, and I ran into that demon on the way home after eating. .”
Recalling that embarrassing past, she couldn't help trembling all over, and her face turned pale, "I took the subway back, and I had to walk a few hundred meters to get home after leaving the subway station. That section of the road happened to pass by a bar, and I passed by He just came out when I was there, obviously drunk, but with great strength. He took me to the alley next to me, to me, to me..."
The curly-haired man raised his right hand high: "Excuse me, why don't you call for help?"
"I called for help! But it was a remote place, it was very messy, and there were no people there. The bar was a black bar." The girl was a little excited, but her voice was not loud, and she didn't feel harsh even if the volume was turned up, " It’s a no-nonsense area, and the crime rate is extremely high. We live there for the sake of cheapness, and the monthly living expenses are only so little, so it’s impossible to rent an expensive place.”
"Is that also the last time you saw her?" It was Shi Yan who asked the question this time.
The girl nodded: "He left after finishing his work. I called the police, but there was no surveillance there, so there was no way to find him."
Everyone was looking at her, which made her fidget a little.
Shi Yan raised his eyes, looked at the uncomfortable girl, and said, "Does anyone have any questions?"
No one answered.
Shi Yan glanced at the tour guide at his feet, "Then the next one."
The mineral water bottle was right in front of her. She bent down and spun the bottle. The bottle spun several times before finally stopping and pointing at the woman with long wavy hair.
She was clearly wandering, her eyes were empty, her thoughts were no longer in the car.
The girl hesitated for a while, then stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder.
However, she didn't react at all, she still maintained that posture, her gaze was dull.
The girl immediately looked at Shi Yan asking for help, at a loss what to do.
Shi Yan glanced at the woman with big waves and long hair, and said lightly: "Then leave her alone, and turn around again."
After turning again, he pointed to the driver of the car.
Obviously just stating the last time I saw the tour guide, everyone panicked as if they were facing a big enemy.
"I've said everything I can say!" The driver was obviously more nervous than the others, "Although I did see him yesterday, I really didn't kill him! I was wrong a few days ago, I shouldn't have stolen him last night, he found out that I stole it and asked me to settle the bill. I also apologized and promised to return the money to him in the future. I swear, I really did not kill anyone!"
"What time?" A cold male voice rang out.
"Huh? Ah..." The driver scratched his neck, looked up at the roof of the car, and tried to remember, "I don't really remember, it was very late at that time, about ten o'clock? Or eleven o'clock? I don't know I remember, but it was around this time."
So far, he can be said to be the most suspected.
He may also know that it is not good for him to say so, so he desperately clarified: "You believe me! I did nothing but steal his wallet!"
But despite what he said, the eyes of others no longer trusted him.
Except for Shi Yan, he asked again: "When did you see him this morning?"
"This morning...he was late," the driver was also a little puzzled about this matter. "Generally speaking, he would contact me early to check whether the time and place are correct, but I didn't receive a call from him all morning. Can't get through to his phone."
The context of the matter finally has traces to follow.
"I'll be waiting at the departure point at eight o'clock. Those two tourists are the first to arrive." He turned his head to look at the woman with long wavy hair, and then turned back immediately. "After a few more tourists came one after another, he just arrived."
Shi Yan just nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
The curly-haired man looked at the driver meaningfully, "You are very suspicious."
The driver explained it several times, but he didn't want to explain any more, and he seemed a little powerless: "I really didn't, you have to believe me. Even if I stole something, I don't have the guts to kill someone. The severity is not on the same level at all.”
"Really?" The curly-haired man obviously didn't believe it.
The driver raised his hand and swore: "Really not! I swear!"
The curly-haired man didn't press him anymore. After all, there is no evidence now, so he can only listen to everyone and make his own judgment.
At this time, the only liar is the murderer.
He was actually quite suspicious of the taxi driver, feeling that there was something wrong with him.
The main reason is that I have preconceived notions about him, strong, able to fight, and abnormal enough.
Shi Yan looked out the window and didn't know what he was thinking, and didn't say anything. The curly-haired man automatically became the host, "It's your turn to turn the bottle."
The driver, who felt that he had escaped a catastrophe, let out a long sigh of relief, his footsteps were a little weak, and he almost lost his footing when he walked. He squatted down and turned the bottle with trembling hands, pointing the mouth of the bottle at the curly-haired man.
The curly-haired man looked at the bottle and scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
"To be honest, it's really the first time I've seen him today." After scratching his head, he began to scratch his curly hair again.
"I really have nothing to say, I'm quite innocent, I have nothing to do with him." After he finished speaking, he felt that his words were no more credible than the driver.
Suddenly embarrassed.
What was even more embarrassing was that Shi Yan, who seemed to be wandering, said, "Really?"
"It's more real than real gold, brother, I'm not lying to you, I've never seen him before." Oh, this excuse is so pale, he can't stand it himself.
Shi Yan didn't ask any sharp questions, but simply echoed a word: "Yes."
This made the curly-haired man a little flattered. He felt that his suspicion value had skyrocketed, but the elder brother didn't ask anything.
The eldest brother is really not an ordinary person, he is very discerning, I believe he is innocent.
He was happily preparing to spin the bottle, when Shi Yan asked suddenly: "What's the name of the bar that the tour guide often goes to?"
The happy curly-haired man replied without thinking, "Twilight, the environment is pretty bad."
"..."
After speaking, the curly-haired man who was stunned on the spot did not dare to look back at Shi Yan.
Cold sweat swished down his spine, soaking his clothes.
Shi Yan still maintained that sitting posture, his expression remained the same, and his tone of voice did not fluctuate. His tone was so cold that no one could hear his emotions, "Oh, is that so."
