It was almost midnight when we arrived in District 12.
Lei Bin's home is a Western-style manor, which is actually a little larger than an ordinary villa, with a small garden.
There are already many media waiting there.
It's common for congressional candidates to snipe at each other.
But it's really rare to argue with each other to this extent.
If Lu Wen cannot make a good comeback, this parliamentary election will be doomed to failure.
"Mr. Lu, I heard that the murderer of Mr. Yin Long has been found?"
"right."
"Are you here to tell Mr. Lei the news?"
"certainly… "
Lu Wen smiled.
"There will be surprises later, and I won't let your trip go in vain."
The Lei Bin family's manor was brightly lit.
His parents are on business trips to other cities.
The door of the manor slowly opened in the night, and Lei Bin walked out with a smile, followed by a few servants.
"Mr. Lu, I heard that you brought good news."
"Good news indeed."
The two shook hands as everyone watched.
The flashing lights never stop.
"We found fingerprints on the dagger and through comparative analysis, we identified the suspect."
"Congratulations, has the suspect been caught?"
Both of them had smiles on their lips.
It was as if the tit-for-tat confrontation before the banquet no longer existed.
"The suspect is dead. The cover map of the ninth volume of "The Lost City" was torn away and made public."
"Oh? That's such a shame."
Lei Bin sighed and shook his head, the look of regret on his face was genuine.
"Mr. Lu, public opinion is very unfavorable to you now. Unfortunately, the suspect is dead and there is no evidence of his personal confession. Perhaps from now on, when people mention you, they will first think of Mr. Yin Long's death."
He spoke louder.
The surrounding media also cooperated and recorded it.
It's yin again.
Since the suspect had been found, a large number of people would believe that Lu Wen had nothing to do with Yin Long's death.
But after he reminds everyone, everyone will think that without clear evidence, there is no proof.
"Yes, but I haven't finished what I just said." Lu Wen smiled faintly, "One of the suspects is dead, but there is still one alive."
"oh?"
Lei Bin's expression remained unchanged, as if he was ready to listen to the follow-up.
The media also cheered up one by one.
After all, Lu Wen said there was a surprise.
Finding a suspect is not a surprise. With the capabilities of modern technology, as long as the perpetrator is not too smart, he will be found sooner or later.
I saw Lu Wen take out a smaller evidence bag from his pocket.
The flashes became more frequent again.
"Mr. Lu, what do you mean by taking out this empty evidence bag?" Lei Bin smiled.
"No, it's not empty. There is a hair in it, an animal hair." Lu Wen held the evidence bag and waved it in front of him.
"Animal hair? What does that mean?"
"Guess what animal it is from?"
"Mr. Lu, I'm just in the entertainment industry, not a professional detective like you. How can I tell the species of an animal through its hair?"
"Okay, then I'll tell you."
Lu Wen opened the bag and took out the black hair inside.
Very soft and delicate.
"This hair came from a type of cat, a Tiffany cat, and was found at the scene of the suspect's death. All colleagues in District 9 at the time can testify."
He kept staring at Lei Bin's face.
After telling the breed of cat, Lei Bin's expression changed obviously, but it returned to normal in an instant.
"Mr. Lei, I heard that you have a Tiffany cat at home, and its hair is also black."
"This doesn't mean anything."
Lei Bin laughed twice.
"I'm sure Mr. Ray would be happy to take some of that cat's hair and give it to me for comparison testing, right?"
"This... that cat, it's lost."
"Mr. Lei, although the surveillance at the crime scene has been tampered with, the surveillance near your home has not. I just retrieved the video. This morning, your servant was carrying a cat bag when he went out to sell vegetables. He came out to relax." Lu Wen smiled and looked into Lei Bin's eyes, "Try to let this sentence pass through your mind before speaking."
"you… "
Lei Bin didn't know whether he was angry or something.
His face was ugly and he was speechless for a moment.
Many media outlets smelled something different at this time, and all of them opened their eyes wide, waiting for the next step.
After Lu Wen's description, no matter how stupid they are, they can still think of something.
"Could it be that Lei Bin asked someone to do something to Mr. Yin Long... and then poured dirty water on Mr. Lu Wen?"
"And a scapegoat was found as a suspect."
"It's not impossible. What happened to A12 before was also caused by Lei Bin..."
Everyone whispered.
The sound was very small, but the night was very quiet.
"Mr. Lu."
Very calm voice.
The sound came from the manor gate behind.
Lu Wen looked over.
[Wang Yang]
[39-year-old human male]
[Pianist, once engaged in live broadcast of outdoor adventure programs when he was young]
A well-dressed middle-aged man with deep eyes.
He came to Lu Wen and blocked Lei Bin behind.
"The cat has indeed been lost. It was lost at noon today. I don't know where it went. It may have gone to the ninth district." Wang Yang's voice was steady and without fluctuations.
"It's amazing. It takes me more than an hour to drive from District 12 to District 9. It's normal to encounter traffic jams for two hours. A cat can actually run there in a few hours." Lu Wen clapped his hands. Smiling casually.
"Mr. Lu, I need to correct you. It has been almost 12 hours since it was lost at noon to early morning."
"What a coincidence."
"Yes, sometimes things just happen."
The conversation was about to reach a deadlock.
Lu Wen suddenly turned around and faced many media.
"Now let us make a hypothesis." He smiled slightly: "Suppose Lei Bin finds someone to kill Mr. Yin Long, then who will he find?"
"Mr. Lu, please..."
Wang Yang was interrupted before he finished speaking.
"Yes, that's Mr. Wang in front of me." Lu Wen turned slightly sideways and pointed at Wang Yang, "Those who will be contaminated by cat hair should be people who often come in and out of the manor. There are twelve people in total."
"Excluding Lei Bin and his parents who are on business trips, there are nine people left. Four of them are temporary recruits and are responsible for mowing lawns, cleaning houses and raising pets. These four people cannot be trusted."
"The remaining five people, judging from the surveillance, the two chefs have alibi, the two long-term nannies are already very old, the last one... is deeply trusted, and started teaching Lei Bin piano when he was very young, and Very good…"
"Mr. Lu, everything is just your conjecture. Please provide factual evidence!" Wang Yang's face looked a little ugly, "That cat hair doesn't mean anything!"
"Yes! When I communicated with Lei Bin, the cat was probably already a corpse."
Lu Wen nodded.
"But you also overlooked one thing."
