Views:

Most of the passengers obeyed the arrangement and returned to their rooms. Except for the criminal police and others who might be helpful to the case, only the sister of the victim's couple followed. At this time, the elder sister stood outside the door, saw her younger brother and younger siblings in the house again in the miserable state of death, and immediately squatted on the ground, throwing up and crying in fear.

Seeing this, Lu Chu felt that she couldn't be of much help at the scene, so he asked the crew on the side to take the deceased's sister down first, and was going to wait for her mood to stabilize, and after investigating some specific situations on his own side, Ask her again.

After arranging the victim's sister, Lu Chu and others stepped into the house and began to investigate the scene.

After the deceased couple was killed, their joints were broken and they were placed in strange shapes. It was not possible to see what shape they were placed in from the outside of the door. However, after entering the house and looking down from the side, it was discovered that the bodies of the two deceased were spliced together to form a "dead" character. Among them, one arm of the two was even removed by bloody means to serve as the "one" above.

And because their whole bodies were covered with oil, their bodies were so rotten that they almost couldn't recognize their original appearance.

Lu Chu took the gloves handed over by 7, and squatted down to examine the corpse.

It has to be said that the smell of these two corpses can be called "refreshing" after close contact, and the stench hits the soul directly.

Lu Chu's sense of smell is more sensitive than ordinary people's.

But Lu Chu couldn't wear a mask to block his breath, because he needed to use his sense of smell to distinguish the scent of other people left on the victim's body.

They are in such a closed scene at sea, and the cruise ship has strict censorship, and will not allow irrelevant people and people who have not purchased the ticket to sneak in. From this point of view, the murderer can only be the crew or passengers on this ship.

Remembering the scents of the deceased couple and other heavier people in the room, Lu Chu compared in his mind with the scents he remembered from yesterday, and finally locked the scope on only five people.

The doctors, criminal police and detectives who followed were also investigating the scene. Occupational factors, the doctor is investigating the cause of death of the corpse, while the criminal police and detectives are more careful about the layout and structure of the crime scene and the placement of objects.

Lu Chu told the criminal police and others that he smelled the breath on the deceased, and these people obviously didn't believe it, and looked at Lu Chu with doubts: "How can it be possible to distinguish the murderer by the breath, don't you come to make trouble?! "

Lu Chu was not angry when he heard their questioning and distrust of him. Instead, he walked up to one of the criminal policemen with a gentle smile, narrowed his eyes and sniffed lightly, and said affirmatively, "You talked to me last night. The woman in room 136 had sex."

The detective was shocked.

He did have a relationship with the woman in room 136 last night, and they saw each other right two days ago. Because there were murderers on the cruise ship, the woman was terrified last night, so she went to his room to seek comfort from him, and the two of them went to bed.

After talking about his firm result, Lu Chu walked up to another detective without waiting for the policeman to respond, "You had breakfast with the man in room 217 this morning. You ate slices of bread and carrots earlier."

Eating carrots in slices of toast was a special hobby of the detective, and he had a habit of brushing his teeth after breakfast that no one could guess.

Next, Lu Chu walked up to another criminal policeman, sniffed it, raised his eyebrows and said, "You go out..."

"Stop talking!" the doctor hurriedly stopped.

Lu Chu swallowed back the word "rail" with a smile. He smelled the fresh breath of two women on this criminal policeman. This kind of deep odor contamination can only be achieved after sex. It seems that this policeman Interpol's "business" is very busy.

The doctor asked Lu Chudao: "When did you remember the breath of the people on the boat?"

Lu Chu replied truthfully: "Everyone's breath is unique, just like our fingerprints and irises. My sense of smell has always been much more sensitive than ordinary people, and I can remember these smells. Last night, I followed Captain Sunken and other crew members We checked the crew and passengers on the cruise ship together, and remembered the unique smell of everyone by the way."

Now, several people present believed in Lu Chu's ability.

Compared with Lu Chu's ability in sense of smell, what surprised them even more was that even though Lu Chu's sense of smell was amazing, he could actually write down the characteristics of everyone's smell in one day, and share this unique smell with them. The rooms are matched one by one... It can be seen that his unique ability has gone against the sky to the point where he is not human in terms of investigation.

So, the detective asked: "Then tell me, whose smell did you smell on the deceased?"

Lu Chu told the people he smelled and the fresh breath on the corpse one by one.

To everyone's surprise, one of them was the deceased's sister.

The detective rubbed his chin when he heard the words: "If it was the deceased's sister, she often had contact with the deceased couple, and it is quite normal to leave a smell on the deceased's body recently."

"It's indeed normal," Lu Chu said casually, "But what if the dead couple's strongest aura is their sister?"

The heaviest one is naturally the last one left.

The doctor also questioned: "However, it may also be left when I went to the crime scene this morning. Didn't it mean that the sister of the deceased couple was the first person to discover their bodies?"

"It's unlikely," Lu Chu said to the crew beside him after categorically denying it, "Go and bring the person who helped the victim's sister break open the door, and choose a few crew members to guard the deceased's sister. "

The crew nodded and left.

At this moment, the doctor suddenly called out in a low voice: "Ah, what is this?"

When the others heard the movement, they all surrounded him.

I saw the doctor holding tweezers and pulling out a strip of cloth from the neck wound of the male deceased who had been severed and drained of blood.

Lu Chu took a closer look and confirmed that the cloth strip was the same as the one he found before. It was stained reddish brown by blood, and Junxiu was written on it with a black oil-based pen—Guess how many ghosts I have

The doctor read it out word by word, and after a while he wondered, "What does this mean?"

"You ghost... I know this." The detective said, and then explained the meaning of ghosts to several people.

The two doctors shook their heads, frowning: "I don't understand."

The detectives were thoughtful.

After the detective finished speaking, he remembered something and raised his voice and asked: "Where is the other deceased, is there a similar cloth strip on her body?! This is a very important clue!"

Hearing this, the doctor rushed to examine the dead woman's body, and she took out a small piece of cloth from her slit throat. They took a closer look and saw that it said—they are among you.

The tone of this message, with a hint of weird interest in the statement, is creepy.

Lu Chu frowned and looked at the two strips of cloth, lost in thought.

The detective turned to look at Lu Chu: "You just passed the smell, are you suspecting that the sister of the deceased couple is the murderer?"

"No," Lu Chu shook his head, "I never said she was the murderer."

The two doctors wondered: "What is that?"

"I just suspect that she is a 'ghost'," Lu Chu pointed to the cloth and explained, "that is, the legendary accomplice."

People who are "eaten" by tigers have two endings, one is to die, and the other is to become ghosts and loyal servants of tigers, and then lure their friends and relatives to be killed by tigers.

Lu Chu didn't smell the breath of this "tiger", but the breath of this sister who seemed to be crying because of her younger brother and younger siblings was so clear—the victim died in the early morning, and their sister left them on their body The breath is recent, according to Lu Chu's judgment, within a few hours.

All of the above, combined with the legend about ghosts seducing relatives to be eaten by tigers, Lu Chu guessed that this woman was one of the "ghosts".

After confirming the direction, several people left the room, preparing to interrogate the victim's sister.

"Chu! So you are here!"

At this moment, Lu Chu heard a voice with a soft and sweet voice. He looked around and saw Ellie wearing a small western dress and holding up the hem of her skirt, stepping on high-heeled shoes more than ten centimeters from the corridor. From a distance, he ran towards Lu Chu in small steps, and jumped into his arms lightly.

Lu Chu was so frightened that he spread his hands and was at a loss. He let the petite and lovely Ai Li hug his chest, and complained softly, "Chu, why are you not in your room these days? I called you several times, but you are not here..."

7 on the side frowned, low air pressure lingered all over her body, and slightly closed one right hand, as if it would tear Ellie to pieces in the next second.

When he came back to his senses, Lu Chu quickly pushed Ai Li, who was buried in his chest, away, and said, "I have been investigating this murder case with the captain for the past few days, so I didn't go back to my room."

Ellie fiddled with her long golden wavy hair and blinked: "Well, I thought something happened to you, Chu."

There was a man next to Ai Li, the man who had been by Ai Li's side when Lu Chu witnessed the victim's leg being chopped off on the deck. At this moment, Ai Li pointed to this man, and said to Lu Chu: "Pierde is also very worried."

Beard's Chinese is not very good, with a strong foreign accent, he said every word: "Yes, Chu, we, all, are very worried."

Ellie chuckled: "Oh, Beard, you better stop talking, your pronunciation will make me laugh to death."

Beard shrugged his shoulders and continued to stammer, saying that if he wants to learn a language well, he must often talk to others, so he will not give up chatting with everyone in Chinese.

7 walked up to Lu Chu, pulled Lu Chu to her side, and swept Ai Li with her strong eyes.

Seeing this, Ellie was not afraid, but said mischievously with her eyes: "Hey, friend. At present, we are on the same front."
