At half past eight, Kang Mucheng arrived at the office on time, turned on his computer immediately, and logged into the live broadcast platform of "The King of Reasoning".
At nine o'clock, the live broadcast room was opened. The network was stuck for a while, but fortunately it quickly entered the live broadcast page.
He found Jian Jing's number "4" and clicked on it.
I frowned at first sight.
What is a dress? It's a fancy dress.
But when he looked at her expression again, his anxiety was slightly relieved. Under the high-definition camera, Jian Jing's face was shining and she looked great. The sequins hanging on her eyelids were shining in the sun, flashing like the scales of a mermaid.
She followed everyone to the study with anticipation and excitement.
The camera zoomed in and everyone saw Dan's body. He was lying on the ground, blood seeping onto the carpet, but his head was missing.
"Ah!" Jin Laner screamed exaggeratedly and pretended to faint on the spot.
In comparison, Jiang Baiyan was much more dedicated. His face was filled with fear, but a subtle look flashed in his eyes. He quickly scanned everyone's faces, wondering what they were thinking.
Wu Lie also gave his own performance, with a complicated expression, and it was hard to tell whether he was shocked or something else.
"Dad!" Li Kangna expressed his emotions through actions. He ran to the body and looked at it helplessly: "Oh my God, is this really my father?"
Jian Jing is one level deeper than him.
Last night, she saw a headless corpse. Is that the headless corpse now
If the corpse is real, then everything will be easy. The human body features are so obvious, and with her observation skills, it is not difficult to tell the real from the fake.
But now it's a dummy.
The dummy is wearing Danish clothes. Can it be proved that it is the same person as yesterday
She was just like her character, confused and unsure of anything.
"Ahem." Since the plot had already been introduced, she was too lazy to play the brainless girl anymore and went straight to the point, "Who knows medical knowledge? Come and perform an autopsy."
The one who got the role of doctor was an Indian guy named Raj.
He obviously didn't have any acting skills. He took the note from the staff and began to read: "According to our judgment, the deceased is an elderly male, and his condition is consistent with Mr. Dan's."
"Just because it matches the description doesn't mean it's him." Jian Jing was very cautious. A headless body was the easiest to reveal, which was the identity of the deceased. "What's the cause of death?"
Raj: "... This needs to be identified."
Subtext: The drama is still to be obtained.
Jian Jing's mouth twitched slightly: "Then what can we know?"
Raj said bluntly: "The evil is among us."
"Tell me something valuable." Korean uncle Park Min-cheol came into the house and fumbled around the mannequin and corpse. "It seems that he has other wounds on his body. Turn it over and take a look."
"Don't you want to try to find fingerprints?" Jian Jing asked.
Park Min-chul said: "We have all contacted Dan, and no matter who we find, there will be a reasonable excuse to explain."
"Okay." She shrugged and joined in the search.
"Senior, you and Miss Jian have a great chemistry." As a member of a popular boy band idol group, Liu Xiuzhi has participated in similar variety shows and is relaxed. "It feels like you and your partner are a couple."
Jian Jing: “…”
Barrages of comments popped up densely.
[Get lost in Korea! Stop being mean to my wife~]
[Teacher Jian’s face is full of rejection]
[The goddess is so miserable, her luck in the lottery is not very good]
[Jingbai Party expressed regret, Xiaobai, why don’t you fight back and get the third place? ? ]
[Refuse to buy CP, Teacher Jian is the only one who is beautiful]
[This is a mystery show, stop making love stories, it’s annoying]
Seeing that another wave of blood and gore was about to come, Kang Mucheng immediately turned off the barrage.
The network seems to be a little smoother.
The guests began to search the scene, but apart from a locked safe and a telephone, there were no clues worth paying attention to.
The safe can't be opened, so I can only focus on the camera.
Liu Xiuzhi pressed the redial button and made the last call.
"Jingle Bell-"
There was an automatic recorder on the other end of the line: "Hello, this is the restaurant, the line is being connected—"
"Restaurant?" Everyone was extremely surprised.
"This is a murderer." Uncle Park Min-chul pushed his frameless glasses and made a firm judgment.
Jin Laner: “Why?”
"The call was made at 11:47." Uncle Park showed the attentiveness of a reporter. "I remember that when we finished at 10 o'clock, the restaurant was also preparing to close. Dan should know that no one in the restaurant would answer his call at this time. If he needs anything, he can ask the butler."
The NPC housekeeper said: "Yes, if the master needs anything, he will call my room."
The others looked at him and said, "So, the murderer called a number that would never answer in order to cover up the fact that Dan had called him?"
"Not necessarily." Ishikawa said, "Maybe it was to create the illusion that the deceased was still alive at 11:47."
"That makes sense." Many people agreed.
But Jiang Baiyan glanced at Jian Jing and asked, "Jingjing, what do you think?"
Jian Jing said, "It's indeed unreasonable for Dan to call the restaurant at nearly 12 o'clock. But it's too early to speculate about the hidden secrets of this number now."
"Do you have any other guesses?" Kojima Shimotsu cast a glance at the mystery cartoonist who had been speaking all along.
Jian Jing looked over. Kojima Wataru was very young, said to be in his twenties, but he drew the most popular mystery comics. He looked a little unkempt (of course, the makeup artist had done a basic look for him), his hair was still messy after a trim, and his eyes were always half open and half closed behind his glasses, as if he was in a state of disarray.
In a nutshell, it has a very otaku detective vibe.
"It's more of an inability to draw a conclusion than a guess," she said frankly. "Judging from the bloodstains at the scene, the amount of blood lost by the deceased was too little."
Kojima Wataru nodded immediately. "I think so too. If this is the first crime scene, there can't be only this much blood. When the head was chopped off, the blood pressure in the blood vessels would spray blood everywhere."
He pointed out: "There are two possibilities. First, the victim's head was chopped off after death. Second, this is not the first crime scene. That's why Jian Sang didn't dare to hastily confirm the problem with the battery."
"Yes." Jian Jing half squatted down and looked at the landline carefully. This landline in the study was very large, and it was not the type with a cylindrical keyboard. The dial pad was the most ordinary one. "If the murderer had a conflict with the deceased, he accidentally pressed it, or left something behind..."
"So that's it." Kojima walked back and forth, observing, "The dial was wiped clean."
Park Min-chul slowed down his pace and followed his thoughts: "The murderer may have deliberately dialed a number to wipe off the blood or fingerprints and confuse our sight. It is also possible that a number was dialed during the fight, and in order to cover up the real time of death, he randomly dialed another number."
other people:"… "

Barrage area.
[Wow, less than an hour into the live broadcast, there was already a fight between gods]
[There are so many possibilities once the power is on]
[Fuck, this is brilliant]
[Why? Maybe it’s a wrong number…]
[If the deceased is hungry, what should he do if he eats instant noodles (funny)]
[According to my intuition, there must be something fishy about this power-on]
--
After a heated discussion, the guests found that the problem with the TV was serious. However, there were too few clues to make a judgment.
Jian Jing urged Raj (the staff member behind him): "Hurry up and do the autopsy. The body is the most important evidence."
"The time of death," said Kojima Wataru, "is the most important thing."
Raj said seriously: "The earliest result will be available is around 12:00 in the afternoon."
Jian Jing: "...Okay."
Park Min-chul: “We can sort out the alibi first.”
So, all the guests gathered in the restaurant and, according to their numbers, recounted their movements last night one by one.
"Everyone, I think," said Ishikawa Keito, the oldest and most senior man, "we need to know when we last saw Dan."
Li Kangna also asked, "Has anyone seen Dan since the dinner ended at 8 o'clock?"
The air was subtly silent.
Park Min-chul suddenly smiled and went straight to the point: "As far as I know, more than one person has seen Dan, but no one wants to be the first to speak. This is completely understandable. It would be troublesome if he became the first suspect."
"Park-san, are you willing to be the first?" Kumiko Terauchi asked unexpectedly.
Park Min-chul said, "I think it would be better to do it in order."
Valeria, who drew number 1, nodded gracefully: "Okay."
She thought for a moment and began to narrate: "Yesterday after eight o'clock, I played cards with Ishikawa, Xiuzhi, and Teacher Wu. At nine o'clock, Xue'er came to replace me. I went to the deck to get some fresh air and returned to my room around nine-thirty."
No. 2: Liu Xiuzhi.
He said, "I played cards until half past nine, then I met Miss Jane, and I went back to my room to rest at ten o'clock."
No. 3 Raj.
He said: "After dinner, I was wandering around the ship, reading in the lounge from 8:30 to 9:15. Oh, by the way, I also saw Jane and Mr. Li."
No. 4 is simple and quiet.
She thought for a moment and tried to narrate calmly: "Well, from 8 to 10 I did a lot of things." After a brief pause, she hinted euphemistically, "Probably just chatting with some people of the opposite sex about life."
The other guests laughed in unison.
Only Kojima Wataru wrote it down in his notebook very seriously and asked, "Who are they?"
"Mr. Li, Mr. Liu, Xiaobai."
"Why?"
Jian Jing said indifferently: "Private matter."
No. 5 Wu Lie.
He said: "I started playing cards at 8:40 and finished at 9:30."
"What did you do before?"
"Walk to digest the food."
No. 6 Terauchi Kumiko.
She was very into the role: "I went to the room to visit my husband. He said he wanted to be alone for a while, so I went back to rest for a while. Around nine o'clock, I joined everyone to play mahjong."
No. 7 Andre.
"I played mahjong until nine o'clock, but I lost too much and quit," he said. "Ms. Terauchi took my place."
No. 8 Jin Laner: "I am very interested in Mahjong and have been playing on the table. It ended at 9:45 and I went back to my room to rest."
No. 9 Linnaier: "My throat was a little sore, so I went back to my room to rest early. Oh, at nine o'clock, I asked the restaurant to send me bird's nest."
No. 10 Jiang Baiyan: "Playing mahjong. Went away for a few minutes at 8:50 and talked to Jingjing for a few minutes."
No. 11 Park Min-chul: "I wandered around the cruise ship and returned to my room at 9:50."
No. 12: Wataru Kojima: "Learn to play Mahjong."
No. 13 Li Connor: "At 9:10, I went to see my father and talked to him about something. I left at 9:30 and went back to my room to rest."
He added: "At 8:20, I met Miss Jane."
Jian Jing propped up her head, showing an expression that she couldn't bear to look at it.
No. 14 Ishikawa: "We played cards until nine o'clock, and then went to rest when we couldn't hold on any longer."
No. 15 Zhang Xueer: "After dinner, I went back to my room to rest for a while. At 8:40, I talked to my father about some things. At 9 o'clock, I replaced Leah and played cards with others until 9:30."
