"Quiet!"
"Please be quiet, everyone!"
"I've already called the police!"
"The police will be here soon!"
"Before that, I hope everyone remains calm and stays in their seats—in order to make up for your unhappiness this time, our TV station will give you a certain amount of financial compensation."
Amidst the chaotic screams, the deputy director surnamed Wang walked onto the stage, and he picked up the microphone and shouted loudly.
The sound diffused through the stage sound and reverberated in the studio, suppressing those screams, and the police and financial compensation mentioned in the words made the audience feel a little bit at ease.
After more staff belonging to the TV station entered the studio, the scene was further controlled.
At this time, the director with a kind face walked up to Qin Ran.
"I'm sorry this happened."
"If you can, please wait in the dressing room until the police arrive."
The other party said so.
"Everyone hasn't left, and I don't have to leave either."
Qin Ran shook his head, but his gaze never left the corpse in the alley.
The corpse was curled up in the box, and the joints were completely stiff at this moment.
Obviously, it was moved into the box at the first moment of being killed, and then rigor developed. According to the degree of muscle contraction, it should have been killed 1-3 hours ago.
From Kieran's point of view, the fatal wound was assassinated from behind.
The dagger that was used as the murder weapon remained on the body.
The dagger went deep, piercing the heart with one blow, but it got stuck in the bone.
Not a veteran.
Even, daggers are rarely used.
Under such a premise, the image of an impulsive murderer appeared in Kieran's mind.
As for whether there are other injuries
Before moving the corpse, Kieran couldn't judge.
However, Qin Ran was able to determine who the murderer was.
The residual murderous aura was too obvious, even for Qin Ran who was weak at the moment, when he saw the other party, it was as bright and dazzling as seeing a searchlight in the dark night.
Although he didn't know why the other party killed him, Qin Ran didn't want to waste his precious time on the other party's one-man show.
"Do you have any grudge against him?"
Qin Ran asked suddenly.
"What's the meaning?"
The director with a kind face was taken aback for a moment.
"I asked if you had any grudge against him?"
Qin Ran repeated it.
"How can it be!"
"Max and I are the best partners. Although there will be quarrels, it is also because of the opinions of the program. In private, we are very good friends."
"Many people on TV can attest to that."
The other party frowned and retorted.
"Then why did you kill?"
Kieran
"kill?"
"Are you kidding me?"
"How could I kill someone!"
There was a moment of panic in the other party's eyes, but he immediately became calm. He held the microphone, bowed his body slightly, and pointed the toes of his feet in Qin Ran's direction. way, and spoke to Kieran.
"You said I killed someone?"
"What about your evidence?"
"If you can't prove it, I'll tell you about the slander, and..."
"I heard rumors before that Max and you had trouble, right?"
"He said you looked at him like a man-eating beast!"
"You're talking about me killing people!"
"But I think maybe you are killing people!"
The sound spread with the sound, and everything that happened on the stage quickly attracted the attention of the audience. They recovered from their panic and watched everything that happened on the stage without blinking.
"There is a lot of evidence."
"The dagger is still on the corpse. You should wipe off the fingerprints on it, but what about the blood?"
"Although it is covered by perfume, you have a strong fragrance smell on your body, which is consistent with the smell of hand sanitizer outside the bathroom. You should have washed it with hand sanitizer many times."
"And the clothes you are wearing at the moment have changed slightly from when you just saw me."
"It must have been stained with blood, right?"
Qin Ran's nose smelled more things, but an excellent hunter naturally knows how to let the prey step into the trap step by step. .
"Blood!"
"You keep talking about bloodstains, did you find them?"
"Or do you need a luminol test?"
There was a trace of sarcasm on the other party's face.
Seeing the sarcasm on the other party's face, Kieran smiled.
"So, you should be clear and thorough."
"It's not just hand sanitizer outside the bathroom, there should be something like bleach, but... don't you think it's weird if a person has bleach on their body for no reason?"
"Especially if you wash your whole body with something like bleach."
When covering up a flaw, more flaws will inevitably appear.
The opponent in front of him is like this.
Seeing the flustered look on the other side's face again, Kieran shook his head.
At this time, he can be sure that the other party did this on impulse.
Otherwise, it should be more detailed.
But this did not prevent Qin Ran from continuing.
"Staff present, please check the restrooms on each floor. Please let me know which floor has excessive use of hand sanitizer."
"Also, please pay attention to whether there is a smell similar to bleach in it."
"If you can, please use the position where you found the two features above to search the entire upper and lower floors, paying special attention to... the ceiling!"
As soon as Qin Ran's words fell, the guy who impulsively stabbed his old opponent to death couldn't hold on any longer, and he just "plopped" and collapsed to the ground.
"You, how do you know?"
The other party trembled and asked.
Of course, Qin Ran would not say that as long as a normal-thinking person would discard the option of the trash can first, because that is the first place the police will check. will be searched.
Even the ceiling is the same.
In fact, according to the search process, if you leave it alone, it will be a matter of time before you are found.
However, Qin Ran did not tell the other party.
He pointed to the corpse in the box, and said lightly.
"He told me."
"I'm a 'psychic'!"
After speaking, Kieran walked towards the corridor on the side of the stage.
The staff of the TV station who stood aside immediately moved out of the way to let Qin Ran pass, and the people in the auditorium kept watching Qin Ran leave.
It wasn't until the corridor door slammed shut that they came back to their senses.
Admiration sounds immediately one after another.
The exclamation sounded again and again.
But these have nothing to do with Qin Ran.
Naturally, the murderer who pretended to be clever and began to narrate his innocence now has nothing to do with Qin Ran.
Not only was Qin Ran not interested in these at all, but also because a hint appeared on his retina that surprised him.
