The Second Case: The Mystery of the Murder House, Volume 5
Chengtang, an unexpected guest from Jiu, was puzzled by the Master’s surprise:
"Do you know this person? - She is very strange. She refuses to listen to any advice and insists on staying in that room. She said the number is auspicious..."
The mage broke out in sweat and whispered:
"The ** out of 10 is her - superstitious and stubborn as hell!"
...
(Room 606) Chang Jing kept asking Tang Peng how Li Han could accompany a mage. Tang Peng had no choice but to answer:
"That mage doesn't look familiar to you?"
Chang Jing raised her head and thought for a moment, then suddenly shouted:
"Brother Cheng Shuai!"
"That fool! Alas -" Tang Peng sighed, "What is he thinking? Really..."
"Brother Cheng Shuai is so awesome! He pretended to be like - I didn't even recognize him. He refused to acknowledge that we must be his investigation needs - OK! We will cooperate with him! Hehe! It's like acting in a movie...
..." Chang Jing looked immersed in her own fantasy.
Tang Peng looked at Chang Jing with a wry smile and was about to say something when Chang Jing suddenly woke up and asked Tang Peng:
"Who is more powerful, you or Brother Cheng Shuai?"
"This..." Tang Peng thought for a while, "Although that guy Cheng Shuai is a fool, his ability as a detective is still quite strong, especially his observation of people may be better than mine.
And I am better at observing 'things' - if you ask me to compare with him..."
Tang Peng stopped, because Chang Jing didn't seem to be listening, and was looking for something in the room:
"Ah! Got it!" Chang Jing picked up half a cigarette butt from the ground and ran to Tang Peng with excitement on her face, "Sherlock Holmes in other novels can deduce a lot of information about the owner from a pipe left by the client.
, Brother Tang Peng, can you deduce some information about its owner from this cigarette butt?"
"Holmes?" Tang Peng looked helpless, "He is the god of reasoning - how dare I compete with him? Can you please stop making trouble?"
"Yes, yes!"
Tang Peng couldn't resist Chang Jing, so he had to take the cigarette butt and observe it carefully, and then said seriously:
"The owner of the cigarette butt is a tall, strong, left-handed, henpecked, well-dressed man."
Chang Jing opened her mouth and stared at Tang Peng in surprise and disbelief:
"How do you know?"
"It's actually very simple: there is no lipstick mark on the cigarette butt and the teeth marks on it are deep, large and neat, indicating that the owner is a tall, strong man; the teeth marks are tilted to the lower right, which means it can
I know that the owner is used to chewing cigarettes with the right half of his teeth. Usually people bite cigarettes with their left teeth. Only people with sensitive nerves on the right side of the brain do that. So I speculate that the owner of the cigarette butt is left-handed (the control of nerves in the body is opposite to the left and right).
; Cigarettes are high-end cigarettes, and people who smoke these cigarettes are usually very well-dressed. As for the reason why he is afraid of his wife - under what circumstances would such a tall and strong man throw an unfinished half-smoked cigarette at the foot of the window?
Hidden place?”
"Wow!" Chang Jing couldn't help but applaud, "I wonder if Brother Cheng Shuai is also so powerful..."
Tang Peng smiled and did not answer.
...
(Room 605) "What! You said Cheng Tang is the ex-boyfriend of the girl who committed suicide!" Li Han looked at Chen Xiaoyu in disbelief with his mouth wide open.
Chen Xiaoyu held the tip given by Cheng Shuai in his hand and replied respectfully:
"Yes, the manager was engaged to the daughter of the hotel owner for his own future, so the girl chose this hotel... I'm sorry, I can't say too much..."
Cheng Shuai nodded to express his understanding:
"It's okay, you have provided enough."
"Okay, do you have any other instructions?"
"No, you can go out and do your work."
"Yes, Mr. Master. By the way - please don't let the manager know that I told you about this." "Don't worry, it's natural!" Cheng Shuai politely sent Cheng Tang out.
As soon as he returned to the house, Cheng Shuai couldn't wait to take off his 'equipment' and throw it on the bed:
"Damn it! These clothes are so uncomfortable! - I have to speak softly, it's so suffocating!"
Li Han lay comfortably on the bed and said lazily:
"What a character you have! Oh - by the way, how do you know that Chengtang is related to the girl who committed suicide?"
"A brat is a brat! You have a lot to learn! - Didn't you see the unnatural look on Cheng Tang's face when he talked about the girl's suicide? There must be something wrong!" Cheng Shuai said.
He threw himself on the bed and said, "It's so cool! A star hotel is different! Damn it! When can we live in a house like this!"
Li Han pouted, obviously unconvinced. At this time, there was a knock on the door. Cheng Shuai quickly put on his 'equipment' and impatiently opened the door: a young, tall and beautiful woman stood religiously outside the door holding a heavy backpack.
.Cheng Shuai cried out:
"Zou Caihui!"
The beautiful woman was also surprised when ten old friends met again. She looked at this strange mage carefully and asked with some confusion:
"you know me?"
"Um...wait a minute!" After Cheng Shuai said that, he suddenly locked Zou Caihui out and hurriedly retreated to the room.
It turned out that Zou Caihui heard that there was a mage who happened to live across from her room. She was so excited that she came to pay a sincere visit without even returning to her room. However, she was treated inexplicably coldly. She felt very uncomfortable, but she couldn't leave, so she had to stand there.
Waiting there, after a while, the door opened: a young man wearing sunglasses and dressed casually stood in front of her.
"Cheng Shuai! Why are you..." Cheng Shuai quickly made a gesture to tell her to whisper, looked around, and carefully introduced Zou Caihui into the room.
Zou Caihui looked at Cheng Shuai curiously and excitedly:
"Long time no see! You seem to have become more handsome, haha... Are you still wearing those sunglasses? - It's been so many years and you still can't forget that incident?"
Cheng Shuai suddenly became a little panicked, and the expression on his face was a little unpredictable. He turned to look at Li Han, who was already asleep, and was unwilling to answer.
Seeing Cheng Shuai's expression, Zou Caihui laughed softly:
"That mage just now was also you, right? I didn't recognize it for a moment, but you really know how to play!"
"Tch! You don't know how to play - you just went to 'Yunshan', where you camped and went to bars!" Cheng Shuai countered.
"Oh?" Zou Caihui smiled, "How do you know?"
"Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh!" Cheng Shuai showed off his trademark laugh, then suddenly put away his smile and said seriously, "Although you have changed into clean and fashionable clothes, you are still carrying a bulky big bag.
Bag, this kind of bag is used when camping. There is still some wet soil on it, which proves that you have just come back from camping. There is still a dripping umbrella hanging on the backpack. The city has been relatively dry recently. Today, only the camping holy land -
- It has just rained in Yunshan - I am such a genius! Hahahaha - As for you going to the bar, please! I can smell the alcohol in your mouth four steps away from you! - You haven't given up drinking yet? In the future
How to pretend to be a lady?"
"It's embarrassing to say it!" Zou Caihui was not surprised by Cheng Shuai's reasoning. Instead, she pretended to be angry and said, "I don't know who taught me to drink in the first place? Who wants to live a free and easy life and not be blinded by trivial matters -
Who told me all this?"
"Damn! You were broken up in love back then! The situation was different!"
"I want you to take care of it! Who is the child sleeping on the bed? Do you have this habit?" Zou Caihui pointed at Li Han, who was sleeping soundly, and said to Cheng Shuai with a joking expression.
"Damn! This is free labor for our detective agency - no! Assistant!"
"Detective agency? Didn't you learn some martial arts from a strange old man? When did you create a detective agency again?"
"...(I've been down the mountain for several years) We'll talk about this later! You have to keep my disguise as a mage a secret..."
Suddenly there was a burst of insults outside the door. Zou Caihui went out to watch out of curiosity. Cheng Shuai changed his 'equipment' and went out to watch the excitement:
A drunken young man was insulting the waiter Chen Xiaoyu because Chen Xiaoyu had 'blocked' his way! Chen Xiaoyu kept apologizing aggrievedly, but the other party still refused to forgive. Cheng Shuai sighed:
"Another lovelorn... Damn, I'm stimulated again! (I don't even have a chance to fall in love)"
Zou Caihui heard Cheng Shuai's complaint and smiled softly:
Chapter completed!
