While the audience was watching the recording, the guests were also briefed on the above content.
Jian Jing commented: "It's quite realistic."
"Cut it, continue." the director announced.
So everyone naturally jumped to complain and continued to reason.
"It is now clear that the murderer (the second murderer) was a copycat of the real murderer (the first murderer)," Jian Jing said. "The person who killed Linnae is not the same person who killed Dan."
"Why?" Jiang Baiyan rushed to show his support.
"Their methods of committing crimes were completely different. The first murderer was very careful and left almost no clues except for the phone call. The second murderer was more panicked and did not check whether Linna was really dead before dismembering the body. The scene was a mess. Generally speaking, murderers tend to be more nervous when committing a crime for the first time and more relaxed the second time, but they were the opposite."
Jian Jing stated her reasons, which were unanimously approved.
—Although it’s meaningless not to agree, a new way of playing with accomplices has been triggered, so there must be two people.
Once the tone is set, continue with the analysis.
"Since it's a copycat crime, we can analyze the two cases." She speculated, "First, we can rule out the possibility that the murderer randomly selected the victim because he admired the real murderer. The real murderer only killed one person. At least we only knew about one person yesterday, and he was far from showing any charisma. He killed Linnae out of his own motives."
Kojima Wataru asked, "Who has the motive to kill Linna?"
"It's hard to say. Dr. Raj might be upset because of his father's death. Mrs. Kumiko might have discovered that she had an affair with Dan. Ishikawa might be hiding some truth. I might also be resentful of Linna because of Yumeng." Jian Jing said casually, twirling the pen. "If we expand the scope, my brother-in-law and brother-in-law might know something and hold her hostage."
Wu Lie immediately stated: "Linna and I have no contact."
Andre also said: "Me too."
Kumiko said, "Although I know Linnae likes Dan, I have no reason to kill her. The person I love is not Dan, and she can't take the inheritance."
Since she has a lover, this reason is reasonable.
Raj defended himself: "I still don't know how my father died. Judging from the evidence so far, it is more likely to be related to Dan."
Ishikawa said: "If I want to kill Linna, I could have done it a long time ago. There is no need to kill now."
It's Jian Jing's turn.
She said, "Yu Meng died from the backlash of witchcraft. I don't think I have a motive to kill. Linnae's death did me no good. The most important thing is... I think the murderer is easy to guess."
Everyone looked sideways.
"There should be no doubt that the murderer went to Linna's room with a steak knife. He took the knife after the attack. The time it took for Linna to wake up or call for help was enough. Therefore, the murderer's murderous intention was obvious. It was not a confrontation, not a threat, but to kill her. The purpose was clear and strong."
Jian Jing said: "Looking at the deceased, Linnae died in her own room, which proves that she took the initiative to invite the murderer into the house. This is a very obvious sign. In the case of a dead person, it is unlikely that she would be alone with a stranger. So we can temporarily rule out the two adult threatening strangers, my brother-in-law and my brother-in-law."
Wu Lie and Andre arrived at the same place, happy to clear their suspicion.
"Look at me and Kumiko. Although we are not familiar with each other, we are of the same sex. She may let them in, or she may not. Let's not rule out suspicion. Raj is the child of a good friend and a junior. Ishikawa is a good friend. As long as there is a legitimate reason, she may let them in.
"Everyone saw what happened at the scene. Linnae struggled with the murderer before she died. Isn't that strange? Dan died on the 8th floor. No matter how the murderer suffocated him to death, he was sure that no one would hear it. But Linnae's room is next to ours. If the murderer came up and attacked us, wouldn't he be afraid that the noise would spread to the next door?"
Park Min-chul reacted very quickly: "Yes, it's so serious, why did the murderer choose Linna's room to do it?"
Guests: Of course, it’s because anyone who is not the murderer cannot go out after 10 o’clock.
Cross out.
"The murderer made a mistake." Kojima Shigeru was already confused, "The glass at the scene."
These two sentences were incoherent and left everyone confused. But he didn't seem to want to steal the limelight, and signaled Jian Jing to continue with his eyes.
Jian Jing rolled her eyes and continued to explain: "If you want to kill someone silently, the best way is to make her faint. For example, you can take a heavy object and smash her head when she is not prepared, or you can let her drink something."
Everyone's eyes flickered.
"In fact, when I first saw the scene, I thought I had encountered a good trick." Unexpectedly, she just mentioned it briefly, and then she actually talked about something completely unrelated, "Why did you choose to chop people? Was it just an imitation? There was so much blood at the scene, could it be that the murderer wanted to fake the first scene? Who knew that the ending would disappoint me."
Kojima Shigeru nodded in agreement, his brain waves syncing: "The corpse was created just to echo yesterday, it's really a waste."
Others: “…” No, we don’t think so.
Jian Jing said, "Fortunately, the murderer had an idea and performed a classic operation - hiding the wood in the forest. There was a lot of broken glass on the ground, which looked like it was broken in a fight. Unfortunately, I was the one who searched Linna's room yesterday. I clearly remember that the tray with the glasses was not on the coffee table. The murderer moved the six glasses to cover up the fact that Linna had taken the glasses."
"Glass... So, it was drugged?" Jin Lan'er asked.
Jian Jing happily revealed the secret: "I guess the murderer put drugs in the red wine, thinking that Linnai would faint, and was ready to kill her, but the effect of the drug was less than expected, and the two sides had a physical conflict. In the end, the murderer managed to knock Linnai unconscious, and quickly beheaded her, but Linnai just lost consciousness and was not completely dead, and blood splattered all over the floor.
"He found that things were a bit bad. During the fight, the glass was broken and the red wine might have spilled. In order to cover up these abnormalities, he had to move the positions of other glasses and use blood to cover the wine stains."
Kojima Wataru: "The murderer did so much just to cover up the fact that he drugged the patient, so this is the point that can betray his identity the most."
As he spoke, he looked at Raj.
Pu Minzhe flipped through his notebook and announced, "We searched everyone's room yesterday. Dan and the eldest daughter-in-law's room had Chinese medicine, and mine had arsenic. Only you didn't have anything in the medicine box."
Raj took a deep breath.
"You must have been stained with blood yesterday. Even if your clothes are clean, the Luminol test will still show a reaction." Li Kangna must have starred in an American crime-solving drama. He must be familiar with this aspect. "Why don't you search it?"
"No need." Raj smiled bitterly, "It's me."
Jian Jing lowered her head and looked at her watch.
The body was found at 8:15 and it is now 16:05. The second case has been solved.
The progress is OK.
She asked with great interest: "Do you choose to be turned against us, or continue to be an accomplice?"
Raj: “Let me think about it.”
"Ok." After sitting for a few hours, her back and waist ached. Jian Jing stood up to stretch her cervical spine and reminded, "I suggest you think about it before 10 o'clock, don't delay it until late at night."
Jiang Baiyan: "Yes, tell me immediately if you think of any clues, don't check it yourself."
Zhang Xueer: "Don't act alone."
Kumiko Terauchi: "I don't want to talk to anyone alone."
Liu Xiuzhi: "If you are killed, write the code in a clearer way."
Park Min-chul: “Just write the first letter of your last name.”
Raj: “…”

After solving a case, the guests were in a good mood and enjoyed a buffet meal happily.
At seven o'clock, Jian Jing took a plate of fried shrimp chips and visited the "imprisoned" Raj.
"Have you made up your mind?" she asked. "Which side do you choose?"
Raj said: "Of course it is the righteous side."
You can get money by helping the real murderer conceal the truth, and you can also get money by catching the real murderer. Of course, you will choose the one with a better chance of success.
"Well, young man, you are aware of the situation." Jian Jing went out to call for help.
The guests flocked to the scene to listen to his confession and receive leniency.
Raj said, "I killed Linnae to avenge my father."
Kumiko Terauchi: "What happened then?"
"In my twenties, Dan, Linnae, Ishikawa and my father went to the Arctic to see the aurora. But my father never came back. He was said to have fallen into an ice cave while skating and drowned."
Raj opened his mouth slowly and talked about an old story.
"My mother has always been skeptical of this statement because my father is a doctor and is very careful about safety issues. He also doesn't like winter, so it's hard to believe that he would take the initiative to go ice skating outdoors, but we have no evidence.
"Yesterday afternoon, I went to Dan's room to search for evidence and found evidence in the interlayer of a book. Dan had been sending money to Mr. Ishikawa for a month after my father's death. I believed this was not a coincidence, so I looked through his letters and found letters between Dan and Linnae.
"There were many people writing the letters. Linnae and Dan said that their careers were not going well, so they consulted a fortune teller. She said that they had sinned and now it was retribution. They were afraid that my father would not let them go. But they didn't do it on purpose. They just wanted my father to go ice skating with them, so they came up with a bad idea. They didn't expect that my father would get into an accident."
Jian Jing: How cliché.
"Then what?"
"The prank was Linnae's idea, and it was carried out by Dan. Mr. Ishikawa knew about it." Raj said, "That's why Dan gave Mr. Ishikawa so much money, right?"
Ishikawa nodded silently.
Raj: "Now that I know the truth and Dan is dead, I can't let Linna go. Last night, I pretended to find traces of the murderer and tricked her into opening the door. Then, as Miss Jane deduced, I put drugs in the red wine, thinking she would pass out. Who knew something unexpected would happen... But in the end, I still killed her."
The mystery is solved.
Park Min-chul asked: "Do you know who the real murderer is?"
Raj shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I have absolutely no idea."
"The real murderer misled the doctor." Kojima Wataru said, "Given Dan's caution, he would not have put the letter in the bedroom. The probability of hiding it in the secret room is higher. I think the real murderer brought the letter out and deliberately let you find it, so as to kill someone with a borrowed knife."
Jian Jing nodded: "I agree. But Raj found the letter yesterday afternoon, which means the real murderer arranged everything on the first night, but at this time, we haven't even started the first search for evidence."
"The real murderer already knew about Raj's father. He was sure that after Raj read the letter, he would choose revenge." Kojima Wataru naturally continued, "Who could possibly know about the doctor?"
Everyone looked at Ishikawa.
Jian Jing looked at Kumiko.
Kojima Wataru frowned in confusion: "Jane-san?"
Jian Jing asked Raj, "Is there anything else you want to tell me? For example, hooking up with a married woman or something like that."
