Is there something wrong with the reasoning? Didn't the murder take place in three different time periods
Jian Jing had no choice but to move the time forward and set the murder to take place between 13:50 and 14:10.
So, Chai Ji first ran out for a stroll, took some pictures, came back to take some pictures and snapped a card, then went downstairs to kill someone, came back, borrowed something from her, went back to the room, waited and waited, heard Huang Mao knocking on the door, took some instant noodles, waited until 15:30, and went downstairs to return the key.
Just... what's the point? This doesn't make any sense.
The longer the delay, the higher the probability that the body will be discovered. If people find that the key is not on the dead body, people will inevitably doubt the credibility of instant noodles.
Besides, she came out at 1:50 p.m., so it might be possible to hide it from the waitress, but what if she didn't
Chai Ji had come out once, so she should have seen the waitress in the living room. Going to the toilet was a random event, and she couldn't be sure whether she would be seen.
No, that's totally wrong.
She definitely didn't kill people in two time periods.
Going back further, a period of time
But if she had killed the person before 13:40 and then taken the photo, she could have created the illusion that there was no death.
Why add instant noodles
Besides, if she kills someone before 13:40, she can do whatever she wants when she comes back with the key. If she goes out again at 40 minutes, can't she put the key back
It is not scientific to wait several hours before releasing it when you have the chance.
Push left and push right, nothing is right.
Could it be that she had bad luck and chose the wrong person, and the murderer was Huangmao
But there are still many doubts about Huang Mao being the murderer. Jian Jing folded her arms, feeling a little unwilling.
Could it be that we have missed some key clue
Do you think you have confused some things
Could it be that the reason why Chai Ji didn't return the key in advance was because... she got the key two time periods later
That is between 14:15 and 15:20.
But after that, she neither went towards the designated exit nor could she go down the stairs or leave through other doors.
Therefore, it is not difficult to conclude that she may just be the one who returned the key, not the murderer.
Jian Jing lowered her head and glanced at today's notes. Among the several guesses listed, she had ruled out the possibility that 1 and 2 were the same person. Now, if Huangmao could be ruled out, 3 and 4 could be ruled out.
The most incredible guess 5 may be correct.
Multiple people committed the crime, a poisoned person, b was hit with a blunt force, and c was used as a cover-up.
C is Chai Ji. She has never done anything to prove her case for Wan Zitou, so she could only be covering up for B.
Who is b
Theoretically speaking, men with blond hair, buzz cuts, and broken bones are all possible.
But Huangmao was highly suspicious, and she was hiding a lonely person.
Of the guy with the buzz cut and the guy with the broken bone, the latter was undoubtedly more suspicious, after all, they came together. But Paomian took off the buzz cut and pretended that it was a cover-up, which was very clever.
Jian Jing thought for a moment and lowered the suspicion of the crew cut.
He has a very obvious shortcoming: when he is away from home, he has no way of knowing what is going on in the hotel.
Especially today there is no signal, even with Chai Ji helping him to keep an eye on them, there is no guarantee that the plan can proceed smoothly.
If he didn’t eat the steamed cake, if he was with other people, and the crew cutie came back looking for an opportunity, but found that there was no chance to take action, what should he do
give up
He specifically sought out Chai Ji to cover for him, so it would be too rash to give up.
The man with the broken bone is a higher suspicion.
Moreover, he fit the cover-up result very well—he had left once in the afternoon and was hardly a suspect.
The timing is also very coincidental.
At 14:05, the man with the broken bone went to the restroom. At 14:10, Chai Ji came over to borrow something from Jian Jing, during which she blocked the view of the door. When he left at 14:15, the door of the man with the broken bone opposite was already closed.
When did he come back
If you come back after 15 minutes, 10 minutes, find a safe exit, go downstairs, and kill one person, that's enough.
"Master Jian, why are you here?" Ji Feng came back with a bag of instant noodles in his hand. "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something before continuing?"
"Are you in a good mood to eat? Did you succeed?" Jian Jing asked.
"Eliminate one wrong option." He knew what she was thinking, and without giving away any tricks, he revealed the answer, "Yellow-haired guy was lucky. He finished reading the magazine in the toilet, and he can tell every story."
She was shocked: "How can this be possible? How thick is the magazine?"
"It's the supernatural magazines sold on the street stalls. They have stories about female ghosts and zombies." Ji Feng shrugged. "Some are scary, but some are not suitable for children. This kid remembers it very clearly, ah... Well, anyway, I checked it."
Jian Jing thought his cough was very interesting and looked at him suspiciously: "Are you sure?"
"Sure, there's no internet on my phone, so it's reasonable to read a book." He changed the subject, "Do you want to eat instant noodles? I'll cook some for you."
She nodded: "Add eggs, greens and ham."
Ji Feng: “Tsk!”
She sneered: "With your attitude, be careful I won't tell you my latest discovery."
He opened the instant noodle bag and asked casually, "What did you find? Is Chai Ji an accomplice?"
Jian Jing was shocked and sat up straight: "When did you know?"
"I don't know. I didn't think about it. It was just my intuition." He said, "It wasn't Huang Mao. Chai Ji must have been involved. But she did so many things that I don't want to doubt her."
"You guessed right." Jian Jing told him her previous analysis, "She is the murderer. It doesn't make sense at all."
Ji Feng cooked noodles while listening, and by the time she finished speaking, the noodles were ready.
Crack an egg into the instant noodles. Note that this is not a poached egg. Instead, mash it and make egg soup. Then add vegetables and ham, and even ordinary instant noodles can become very delicious.
Jian Jing opened the chopstick box, took out her own chopsticks, aligned them, and picked up a piece of instant noodles.
The smell is so delicious that it immediately makes me hungry and my stomach growls.
She started eating immediately, putting the noodles that had just come out of the pot into her mouth, and then... she burned the tip of her tongue, so she had to spit it out and quickly took a sip of water.
Ji Feng almost died of laughter.
"What's so funny?" She said in a disapproving tone, "Have you never been burned before?"
"I'm not laughing at you. It's not your fault. The noodles are too hot." Ji Feng teased her seriously, "It's definitely not that Master Jian is too squeamish."
Jian Jing took a deep breath: "Is it because I'm too kind to you that you think I'm easy to bully?"
"When did I bully you?" He was shocked and refused to take the blame. "Don't slander me. This accusation is very serious. You are questioning my character."
Jian Jing decided to ignore him.
When this person is annoying, he really is annoying.
She lowered her head to eat the noodles. She was so hungry that she ate them all up and even drank the noodle soup. The hot soup with high salt content went into her stomach, and her body quickly warmed up, and she felt really comfortable.
"Not bad." Ji Feng said, "Master Jian is very reassuring when eating. Yunyun eats half a bowl of rice every time and says she wants to control her carbohydrate intake. I want to beat her up."
Jian Jing said coldly: "Domestic violence is against the law."
He: "I said I wanted to."
Generally, I can only give her more pocket money so that she won’t be reluctant to buy snacks when she is hungry.
After chatting for a while, they refreshed their minds and quickly got back to the point.
"If the murderer is Zhu Yong, he only had one chance to act, when he went out to the toilet at 14:05." Ji Feng said, "This time was only enough for him to kill one person. The rest must have been done by Ji, including inviting the person out, disposing of the murder weapon, and returning the keys."
Jian Jing nodded: "Ms. Chai is in 201, so it's easy to send a letter to 204, and it's also easy to put instant noodles there, and it can avoid other people. The problem lies in one place: where is the murder weapon, and what did she do with the key?"
"Well, you have to enter the room to do it... the letter." Ji Feng said, "The victim didn't bring the letter with him, so the murderer can only take the key and look for it in his room."
This guess is reasonable.
Jian Jing thought for a moment and said, "The case is now very clear. They killed the chicken last night. We didn't ask them about their actions last night. It's easier to see a zombie. It's a complete lie. There is only one doubt, the murder weapon and the umbrella - have you checked the plaster that fixed the fracture?"
"Of course," he explained, "the plaster is a little loose, which proves that the injury has been recovering for some time. I suspect his arm has almost healed. I checked it carefully and found no damage or blood."
She changed her mind and said, "So, the umbrella is the murder weapon?"
"Because the umbrella was damaged after the force hit it, you chose to destroy it?" Ji Feng thought about it and went back to the original question, "Even if the umbrella can be disassembled, it doesn't make sense that I didn't find anything."
When faced with such a difficult problem, Jian Jing's imagination became more vivid: "Then let's treat the umbrella as a smoke bomb. Think of it this way. If the murder weapon disappears, is it possible that it was either hidden and destroyed, or something that can disappear? For example... ice?"
"That can only be demolded ice. I've checked all the containers, and not a single plastic bottle is left, including the one in the dead room." Ji Feng added.
Jian Jing said, "If you put two cans of different sizes together, you can make a hammer. The hollow part can be inserted into the umbrella handle. Maybe it will be just right - but, was there a power outage last night?"
"It has been repaired a long time ago, so there is enough time." Ji Feng perked up, "Let's go and ask the owner."
The waitress was watching TV in the living room by herself. When she saw them coming, she was very enthusiastic and asked them everything they knew: "Refrigerator? There are two refrigerators in the house, one in the kitchen and one here."
"When was the last time you cleaned the refrigerator?"
"It's noon today." The waitress said, "My dad went to town to buy some food. I sorted out the refrigerator in advance."
"Is there anything missing or extra in the freezer?"
The waitress shook her head.
"sure?"
"Of course, there was nothing there to begin with. I can see it clearly."
"So, did anyone come into the kitchen this afternoon?"
"a lot of."
"Have you opened the cryostage since then?"
"I took out a piece of meat while making lunch."
"No extra stuff?"
"No."
"Has Chai Ji been to the kitchen?"
"came."
"What did she do?"
"She took a bottle of Coke and asked me if she could freeze it." The waitress remembered it clearly. "There was already frozen Coke in the refrigerator, so I gave her a bottle directly. What's wrong?"
Jian Jing asked: "What time is that?"
"Nine or ten? Before I start cooking anyway."
The waitress started cooking at about 11:30. Since she didn't see the ice when she took the meat at noon, even if she had put it in when the other party wasn't paying attention, it couldn't have been preserved until 14:00 when the crime was committed.
But Jian Jing was still unwilling to accept it: "What did she do?"
"I ate a bun." The waitress asked curiously, "What's the point of this?"
Jian Jing said, "Nothing, just try to ask as clearly as possible. Zhu Yong, the guy with the broken bone, has he ever been into the kitchen?"
Still shaking his head.
Jian Jing had to give up temporarily and told her: "It's getting late, you should lock the door and go to bed after we leave."
"Don't worry, I won't wander around." The waitress assured solemnly that someone who has watched all the horror movies would never seek death easily.
There is a trickle of rain outside.
Where did the murder weapon go
