Chapter 25 Another Murder Case
After describing the man's height, hairstyle and clothing to Xiao Shang, Cheng Shi asked Xiao Shang to go back to the patrol room to inform Huang Jinrong!
However, Cheng Shi didn't have much hope. It was almost impossible to find someone who didn't know his appearance in Shanghai, but it was better to give it a try!
Cheng Shi then walked into the villa. Now he not only wanted to figure out how Luo Yunhua was killed, but also figured out the identity of this mysterious man!
Cheng Shi sat on the sofa in the lobby on the first floor and slowly closed his eyes. He was mentally simulating the situation of everyone on the day of the incident based on the confessions in the file in his mind.
If there is anything unexpected, it means that one of the five people is panicking. After a long time, Cheng Shi opened his eyes and got up directly to go to the second floor!
Cheng Shi went through a wooden staircase to the second floor again. Several rooms on the second floor were open, and there were four rooms in a straight corridor!
Directly opposite the corridor are two closed windows. The decoration style of the entire villa is a combination of east and west, which looks quite elegant.
The entire villa seems to be built with a wooden structure. There must be a reason for the man to sneak into this villa.
Cheng Shi came to the door of the bedroom again. There were not only one set of footprints at the door, but several sets of footprints. He followed the footprints to the window of the corridor.
Cheng Shi found that the window was opened inwards, and then he stretched out his hand to open the window, stretched his head and looked down, but there was nothing!
Cheng Shi began to think about it. From the ground to the window, it was about 5 meters high. Judging from the footprints in the corridor!
That's where the man came in. There are no ropes or places to climb!
Then how did he get up here?!
Cheng Shi's heart moved. He stretched out his body and looked upstairs. Sure enough, one side of the window had a slope-like shape. It seemed that the other party could enter the second floor from the roof!
Cheng Shi turned around and came to the bedroom again. The furniture inside was all made of wood, and the quilt and sheets on the double bed were all blue and white striped.
There was nothing on the floor of the bedroom. After all, the house was for sale, but according to the location of the photo, Cheng Shi came to the location of the deceased!
Looking at the messy footprints on the ground around him, some deep and some shallow, Cheng Shi understood that this was not the first time for the mysterious man to come here!
And based on the location of the other party's footprints, Cheng Shi also discovered the other party's purpose. The other party should have come to the villa to look for something!
Cheng Shi continued to look up at the top of his head. Cheng Shi didn't believe it at all. There were only three possibilities that could cause a ghost to cut his throat!
Cheng Shi looked at the empty roof above his head and realized that the first possibility was gone, so only the second and third possibilities were left!
Cheng Shi didn't understand why the other party used such a complicated method to kill the deceased. Was it because he liked to do it, or did he have to do it?
No matter what the reason is! You have to find this murderer!
Cheng Shi continued to walk around the bedroom, and finally stopped somewhere, because he already understood how the other party killed!
However, he did not know who the murderer was, and he had no other clues to pursue it!
After thinking for a while, Cheng Shi had no choice but to turn around and leave the bedroom, exit the villa, and lock the villa again!
…………
When Cheng Shi returned to the central prison room, he saw Deng Xin walking over quickly and said anxiously: "Brother Cheng, why are you back!"
Cheng Shi looked puzzled, while Deng Xin gasped and said, "Another murder has occurred!"
Cheng Shi frowned and was about to return to the arresting room when Deng Xin quickly followed him and continued.
"Brother Cheng, don't go back. Chief Inspector, I want you to go to the scene immediately. He said that the deceased is very similar to the mysterious man you witnessed. The patrol and forensic doctors have also arrived there!"
Cheng Shi was stunned for a moment, then turned around to park the motorcycle and quickly opened the motorcycle. Cheng Shi said anxiously: "Let's go!"
Deng Xin quickly sat in the back, and the two of them left the place. A few minutes later, the two of them arrived at their destination!
There was a place called the Happy Hotel. There were several police officers surrounding the door, preventing the surrounding people from entering the hotel.
After Cheng Shi got out of the car, he looked up at the entire hotel. The two of them walked into the hotel from behind several police officers!
The reception hall is not big and is divided into two parts. The one near the door is the registration desk. There are several tables and stools near the stairs, which seems to be a rest area.
Cheng Shi saw people in the hotel gathering at the table to answer the patrol's questions.
Cheng Shi walked past them and went straight to the third floor. In the corridor, he met Francis' assistant, whom he had met only once!
The latter was wearing white gloves and was talking to a patrolman. The patrolman was recording something with a pen and paper!
When the other party saw Cheng Shi and the two coming up, he nodded, and Cheng Shi nodded in return, and then walked into the crime scene with Deng Xin.
Looking at the guest room from the 1920s in front of me, the room was very messy. Even the carpet had been torn up and lifted up, revealing the moldy wooden floor.
Cheng Shi looked at the scene. The case of the ghost cutting the throat and this one were the other extremes, one was extremely clean and the other was extremely chaotic!
Cheng Shi could almost be sure that he was the mysterious man in the villa based on his back and the other person's clothes!
The mysterious man in the villa was half lying on the bedside of the hotel, with his legs on his knees, his hands hanging down, and his neck twisted into a strange posture!
Francis' assistant followed up and said: "The man was about 35 years old. His neck was broken with great force and he died in less than an hour!"
Cheng Shi nodded and said, "Yes, because I saw him an hour ago!"
Cheng Shi took the white gloves handed to him by Deng Xin, put them on, walked to the man's body, squatted down, and gently moved the deceased's head with his right hand!
"There are deep purple finger marks on his throat and contusions on his face. He has been tortured!" Cheng Shi said after looking at it.
"Yes!" The forensic doctor nodded and said, "The neck was broken in the end!"
Cheng Shi closed his eyes and sighed, then asked: "Who discovered him first?!"
The patrolman who was recording on the side said: "The returning agent is the hotel clerk!"
"What is the hotel clerk doing here in broad daylight?!"
The patrolman continued: "The man said that when the man came back, he looked a little excited and said he wanted to check out!
He wants to go up and pack his luggage, and asks the guy to go back upstairs after a while and help him take down his luggage!"
Is the other party leaving because he saw me?!
Cheng Shi quickly dismissed this idea because he had not caught up with him at all, so why was he so excited?!
But the other party wanted to leave immediately. It seemed that he wanted to escape from here. What was he looking for in the villa?!
Was he excited because he found what he wanted in the villa?!
And why was he killed?!
After Cheng Shi thought about these questions, he stood up and looked around the messy room attentively. Several patrol officers were searching everywhere for any missing clues.
Deng Xin was in front of a luggage bag and turned to Cheng Shi and said: "It seems that he was killed not long after he came up, and he didn't have time to pack much of his things!"
Cheng Shi walked up to Deng Xin in a few steps, nodded and said, "Yes, but it's a pity that he has left this world forever before his luggage is packed!"
