A little bit of romantic interest between lovers actually became the key to clearing themselves of suspicion.
Jian Jing turned around and found that after excluding Ah Xu and Coach Yin, there were still two suspects left.
One is Yaoyao, who has the advantage of location, and the other is Elena, who has been with Yaoyao for a long time, so it is not difficult for her to steal her room key.
Having checked the former, she decided to check out Room 9 where Elena lived.
Elena was not in the room.
Jane entered the room quietly.
The room was dark, and she carefully shone the flashlight on the shoe rack and looked at the bottom of the shoes. She wore soft flat leather shoes, which were stained with some gravel and grass leaves, which was normal. The only thing that concerned Jian Jing was that there was a piece of white stuff on the edge of the shoes.
She studied it for a while, smelled it, and was surprised to find that it was actually paint.
There is only one place in the entire water villa that can be stained with paint.
Room 12, the westernmost room.
Diaoyu Island is the private island of Si Yingjie's cousin. He left a will, handing the island to his cousin, but specifically requested that Villa No. 12 on the westernmost side be preserved and no other residents be allowed to live there.
A house will deteriorate easily if it is not occupied for a long time. With strong tropical sun and occasional typhoons, damage is inevitable.
The first day Si Yingjie arrived on the island, he went to take a look at No. 12. He was dissatisfied with the workers' poor care of it, so he asked them to renovate it.
What was Elena doing in room 12
Jian Jing walked into the bedroom full of doubts.
Elena's bedroom was very tidy, with luggage piled in the cloakroom and a few clothes hanging. There was a makeup handbag on the dressing table, with small bottles of skin care products neatly placed inside.
The makeup bag is also simple, containing only powder, lipstick and eyeshadow palette.
Looking at her makeup, I would never have expected the tools to be so minimal and the level of skill so high... No, something's wrong.
Jian Jing asked herself, she was not a woman who loved to wear makeup, but even so, it was impossible for her to only bring so many cosmetics when traveling. When traveling, anything could happen, so she must prepare more to match.
Especially sunscreen.
Elena was left with only a shallow dive, which was totally inconsistent with what she said about learning to dive.
The sun is strongest at sea.
What's in the safe
She hesitated for a moment and turned on the X-ray machine on her glasses - this special black technology could only be used during missions.
The safe in the water villa is only used to store guests' personal belongings. It does not have a strong anti-theft function and its performance is extremely average. It cannot block the X-ray machine at all.
Jian Jing immediately recognized what was inside.
gun.
Judging from the shape of the bullet, it is not a tranquilizer gun.
She turned her head and was about to put away the X-ray machine (it was very expensive), but she caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye and quickly took a closer look.
There is a layer under the powder box, and there are a few capsules inside. Look at the lipstick again, wow, the spiral tube at the bottom is a USB port.
Jian Jing put down the X-ray machine, and a thought kept lingering in her mind: Could there be secret agents in this world? Like 007
Will Elena hurt others
Did she kill Yang Xiao
What does she do
Jian Jing's scalp tightened and she relived the astonishing feeling she had when she first arrived in this world.
Just then, she heard someone downstairs talking: "Elena, why don't you have an umbrella?"
It was Zong Xunmei's voice.
"It wasn't raining when we came out." Elena said calmly, "Didn't you hurry back? But you, Mr. Zong, why did you come out for a walk in the rain?"
"Who said I was taking a walk?" Zong Xunmei smiled, "Maybe Jiaxi has an appointment."
Elena said, "Then I won't waste your time."
Then, there was the sound of the door being pushed open, shoes being taken off, and someone going upstairs.
Jian Jing made a prompt decision and immediately went into the bathroom to open the window. Just as she was about to jump down, she saw a shadow standing below, holding an umbrella and signaling, "Hurry!"
In an emergency, without bothering to ask for details, Jian Jing climbed onto the windowsill and tried her best to move her feet halfway. Finally, she stepped on the wall half a meter away. Without time to stabilize her center of gravity, she immediately bent forward and jumped again.
He moved swiftly and luckily landed on the stone road, avoiding leaving footprints on the wet soil.
Jian Jing breathed a sigh of relief, but Zong Xunmei made a gesture to silence her, stretched out his hand and pushed her against the low wall, while he walked forward as if nothing had happened.
"Swish", the window above my head was opened.
Elena poked her head out and looked at Zong Xunmei meaningfully: "Strange, why did you come here?"
Zong Xunmei said, "The road ahead is flooded. I'll take the road behind. Any problem?"
Elena's eyes were as sharp as torches as she scanned every inch of the land below, but there was a blind spot behind the low wall. Jian Jing half-crouched against the wall, completely hiding her figure.
She found nothing.
No footprints, no fingerprints, no hair.
But Elena remembered clearly that the bathroom window was closed and her key was always with her. Although she didn't know who it was, someone must have come in.
Who is it
Other customers, or staff
"Okay." Elena was full of doubts, but her face was calm. She touched her hair and closed the window as if nothing had happened.
Outside, Zong Xunmei leaned over the umbrella and whispered, "Let's go later."
Jian Jing nodded.
He walked away, and five minutes later, Elena's face appeared in the glass window again. She stood there for a moment without saying a word, and then went downstairs quietly.
This silence was extremely slight, especially in such a stormy weather, and under normal circumstances it would be impossible to detect it.
-Except for those who have opened the hearing card.
As soon as she came downstairs, Jian Jing knew that the opportunity had come, and she quickly disappeared near Villa No. 9. And there was only one place around here where she could hide her tracks.
Zong Xunmei's Villa No. 10.
He took a dry towel to wipe her hair, with a smile in his eyes: "It seems that you have discovered Elena's little secret."
After being in the rain for several minutes, Jian Jing felt cold all over: "You call this a little secret?"
"Don't be nervous, she's not a difficult person to deal with." Zong Xunmei said, "You don't have to be afraid that she will hurt Si Yingjie."
Jian Jing raised an eyebrow: "You read minds?"
"My reasoning level is the same as yours, a little talent." He said, "I might as well tell you that Yang Xiao was probably not killed by Elena. Instead, the little girl named Yaoyao is very suspicious."
Nothing could surprise Jian Jing more than this.
She investigated the crime scene for a long time, and checked every room one by one, and finally locked on Yaoyao. Zong Xunmei didn't do anything today, so where did she come to this conclusion
Still exactly the same as her
Zong Xunmei: "Oh, I think I've done something unnecessary. You've already found the clue."
"I'd like to hear your opinion." Jian Jing said briefly.
Zong Xunmei smiled and gave a concise answer: "She likes Si Yingjie."
Jian Jing choked, as if she had been showered with blood, and her heart was filled with uneasiness.
What a magical development, a new branch line added to the ancient battlefield
"I've said before that Yang Xiao has a good relationship with everyone. There are no conflicts between my family and her. It must be an emotional dispute."
Zong Xunmei counted the performance of each woman: "Si Yingjie is still in contact with her, and he avoids her, but his eyes never leave her. It is obvious that the old love is still there. Kang Mucheng treats other women indifferently, but he takes special care of you. Dong Xu and Yin Tong are deeply in love, and they are sweet and oily. Elena deliberately makes friends with Lin Yao for other purposes, and you... You are very interested in me, aren't you?"
Without waiting for an answer, he continued, "As for Lin Yao, you may not have noticed that she is always on Si Yingjie's right or left front, with her better-looking left face facing him."
Jian Jing was silent: Is there such a thing? I didn't find anything at all.
"Once or twice is a coincidence, but every time it happens, it is definitely not accidental. Also, last night, she and Yang Xiao both made baked cakes, and she deliberately said that the flower-shaped one was made by Yang Xiao, but the plate she placed in front of Si Yingjie was actually a water drop-shaped one she made herself."
Zong Xunmei told the story in a leisurely manner, as if clues were everywhere.
But Jian Jing knew clearly that there were very few people in the world with such observation ability, and her intermediate observation card had not yet reached such a level.
Where does this guy come from
"That makes sense." She raised her eyes and said faintly, "But I remember that you came here after you finished eating at my house yesterday. How did you know about this?"
Zong Xunmei said: "No matter how I got this information, this clue should be valuable."
Jian Jing did not deny it.
Yaoyao has a crush on Si Yingjie, which can be said to give her the best opportunity and the most convenient conditions for committing a crime. What needs to be figured out next is the murder weapon she used and the time.
In the silence, there were thunder and lightning, and strong winds.
Jian Jing sent a message to Kang Mucheng, asking about the progress over there, but the message could not be sent out after several attempts. The network signal became weaker and weaker, and as soon as she stepped out of the door, there was an x.
Rubbish network, rubbish infrastructure, the island is just not good enough.
She complained in her heart for a while, but had to go back first.
Zong Xunmei walked her to the door.
At this moment, Jian Jing suddenly stopped, hid herself in the shadow behind the door, and observed Zong Xunmei: "What is your purpose for coming here?"
"It has nothing to do with any of you," he replied.
Jian Jing paused, without saying whether she believed it or not, and turned and left.
However, Zong Xunmei saw that she did not choose to go back to her room to rest, but came to Villa No. 9 again and knocked on Elena's door as if nothing had happened.
He couldn't help but praise her in his heart - staying in Villa No. 9, he could both keep an eye on Elena and monitor him, killing two birds with one stone. And not everyone has the courage to come to the door without changing his expression after escaping from the danger there.
Villa No. 9.
Elena looked at the door, wary and surprised: "Why are you here again?"
"I'll ask you some more details about what happened last night." Jian Jing is a shrewd person. She had just sneaked into my room not long ago and she could still pretend that nothing had happened. "You don't mind, do you?"
Elena said, "It's too late. Can't we do it tomorrow?"
Jian Jing looked at the time on her phone and was surprised: "It's only a little after 8 o'clock, and you're already asleep?"
Elena said calmly: "It's windy and rainy, and there's nothing else to do. It's better to rest early."
"Then I'll come drink with you." Jian Jing said enthusiastically, "It just so happens that I don't have anyone to accompany me, so we can have a lot of fun chatting. Yaoyao is accompanying Brother Yingjie today, so the two of us can keep each other company."
She said this as she walked inside.
If I push him out, it might arouse her suspicion and make her think that there is a murder case. Elena pondered and reluctantly gave way.
The villa's bar was well-prepared with drinks, and the two of them each took a glass and filled it with champagne.
Jian Jing said, "You like drinking a lot, but your alcohol tolerance is not very good. I remember that you and Yaoyao got drunk after drinking a bottle of white wine yesterday."
Elena smiled perfunctorily, took the wine glass and drank slowly.
Jian Jing took a sip of wine and silently recited the card drawing.
