Chapter 198 5 Traces at the foot of the bed
Wang Liang's family was not as sad as they imagined. When his wife, the widow, knew that the visitor was a police officer, she just invited them into the house to sit down, and then asked lightly: "When will my man's body be released?"
The case is closed so that we can send him to the crematorium and burn him earlier?"
Lin Jinghao did not expect that the woman in front of him, wearing mourning clothes and black armbands, would be so calm. There were no traces of tears on her face, only an extraordinary calmness.
"There are still some doubts about this case, and we need to learn more about it." Lin Jinghao did not ask any questions, but Gu Qing answered first.
"Oh, just ask if you have any questions. It would be better if this matter is over as soon as possible." Wang Liang's wife is in her thirties. She looks like she should be well-maintained. Her skin is fair and rosy, and she is a bit chubby like a middle-aged woman.
, the appearance can only be regarded as ordinary.
"Don't you want our police to thoroughly investigate and get to the bottom of it?" Gu Qing couldn't understand the idea of a woman whose husband died, but just wanted the police to close the case quickly.
"Beautiful police officer, do you know that we are now orphans and widowed, and have become the laughing stock of everyone we know. If you never close the case, we will always be laughed at by our relatives and friends. They laugh at me because my husband died in someone else."
The woman didn't even wear a single piece of clothing on the bed." The woman finally raised her head, raised her voice slightly, and finally a little tears could be seen in her eyes.
It seems that she has had enough of other people's cynicism these days.
"We need your active cooperation in the investigation so that we can close the case as soon as possible. Please think back now and see if your husband was taking colchicine for a long time to treat his gout symptoms before the accident." Seeing the woman's appearance,
Lin Jinghao could only go straight to the topic.
"He has been using this medicine. You know that as a businessman, he always has to treat guests to drinks. When gout attacks, the pain is unbearable, so he has been using this medicine. Could it be that this medicine is related to his death?
"?" The woman answered readily without any hesitation. It seemed that she had answered all the questions.
"Does he carry this medicine with him, or does he usually only take it at home before going out?"
"He takes it at home and carries some with him. The disease may attack at any time." When the woman spoke, her eyes looked at a family photo on the table. In the photo, except Wang Liang and her,
There was also a teenage child, and the family of three all had smiles on their faces and looked quite happy.
"Is the child so old?" Seeing that the child was actually taller than Wang Liang, Lin Jinghao asked casually to lighten the atmosphere.
"We were introduced to each other by someone. We were both poor back then, so we got married early. I was just twenty years old at that time, and Wang Liang was only twenty-two years old. Our children are already eighteen years old this year and are already in their first year of college.
"
"You're a freshman?" Lin Jinghao couldn't help but glance at Gu Qing. If he gets married at his current age, when he is forty, the child will probably only be a few years old!
Lin Jinghao was obviously a little disappointed when he came out of Wang Liang's house. It seemed that Wang Liang himself had the habit of taking colchicine for a long time. Besides, it is entirely possible to overdose in such an unconscious situation.
So the only suspicious thing now is the female ghost who appeared in the surveillance. However, no trace of a third party was found at the scene? Could it be that it was really a ghost?
"Lin Suo, where are we going next?" Gu Qing asked with concern when he saw that Lin Jinghao didn't speak or drive.
"I want to go and see the scene again," Lin Jinghao replied.
The Zhuoyue Hotel was much busier during the day than at night. It seemed that after a few days, the incident of someone dying in the hotel had slowly faded away. After saying hello to the lobby manager, Lin Jinghao took Gu Qing to the hotel.
18th floor.
As soon as he got out of the elevator, Gu Qing seemed a little scared. Lin Jinghao could feel her leaning against him: "What's wrong, female ghosts don't come out in broad daylight to scare people." Lin Jinghao said with a smile.
In fact, he was really worried because he didn't know if the two dead souls in the room were still there.
The door of Room 1811 was ajar. According to the manager, even the waiter was unwilling to come up after another incident. However, Lin Jinghao seemed to remember that when he left that night, the door should have been closed by himself.
There was plenty of light in the house on the top floor, and everything seemed to have been untouched. Only the sheets in the house were removed because there was the deceased's vomit on them, and the smell was very unpleasant. Lin Jinghao seemed to be able to feel the inside of the house at that time.
How crazy people are.
Walking into the house, Lin Jinghao squatted down and checked the ground inch by inch. Because he had always had a question, why were there only the fingerprints and footprints of the two deceased people in the house? He clearly saw a female ghost coming in on the surveillance camera, and why?
I heard them say with my own ears that another person came later. If the person they said was the 'female ghost', did she really float in? She didn't even touch the ground when she entered the house?
"Lin Suo, look," seeing Lin Jinghao looking specifically at the ground, Gu Qing also joined in. Now her finger was pointing at the foot of the big bed.
This is a large white iron bed. It is usually covered with white sheets all the way to the foot of the bed, so it is difficult for people to notice anything unusual about the foot of the bed.
"What was hit here?" Lin Jinghao looked in the direction of Gu Qing's finger. On the foot of the white bed, there was a trace of paint that had obviously been knocked off. It looked like it should be a new mark.
"What should this height be?" Lin Jinghao roughly measured it with his hands. The height of this mark should be about eight to ten centimeters, which is exactly the same as the height of a woman's high heels.
"Gu Qing, how did you film the movement of the female ghost in the movie?" If the female ghost is a person, how did she float in?
"I've seen movies where the actress is standing on a small four-wheeler, and someone is pushing it from behind."
"Then tell me, does this look like the height of a balancing car? If no one pushes it, she can control it by herself." Lin Jinghao remembered that he saw someone playing with such an object on the street.
"Lin Suo, do you suspect that the female ghost floated in on a balancing car?"
"Yes, do you remember that the female ghost in the surveillance camera was wearing a white coat that hung down to the ground? We couldn't see her feet at all."
"Yes, Lin Suo, it's really possible. You said this female ghost, if the balance car she uses is high-end enough, the wheel marks left on the ground will be very slight. The key is, it will be towed soon.
The clothes on the ground were wiped off." It seems that Gu Qing still knows about the self-balancing scooter.
.
"If our analysis is correct, this should be the reason why we only found traces of the two deceased people." Lin Jinghao finally felt enlightened.
"Take a photo of it and go back to find a balance car to compare the height." Lin Jinghao said.
"However, I still have a question. If this female ghost came in from outside the hotel, why was she not discovered by the waiters all the way?" Gu Qing said:
"Lin Suo, do you think we should retrieve the surveillance video from the lobby that night?"
"Go and try to retrieve it, but I remember Dashu said at that time that the security guards in the control room said they had only seen ghosts on the 18th floor. If they had seen ghosts in the lobby, they would have mentioned it long ago." Lin Jinghao
Standing up, he finally gained something today and he could finally call it a day.
Accompanied by the manager, Lin Jinghao and Gu Qing came to the hotel surveillance room. A few minutes later, they saw the surveillance video in the lobby on the night of the crime.
"We have actually checked this video. There was nothing unusual in the lobby that night. The female ghost on the 18th floor appeared suddenly." The security captain said while playing back the video.
"Manager, please print out a list of the customers who checked in after the two deceased people that night. We will take it back for investigation."
"No problem, I'll ask the front desk to type one for you right away. However, Director Lin, you don't mean to say... those two people were killed by him, right?" The manager said, with a look on his face.
I became afraid.
"We are just suspicious now, because you also saw that a female ghost did enter their room that night. So..."
"I understand, I understand, you suspect that the female ghost is disguised as a human being. But who would be so bored pretending to be a ghost in the middle of the night to scare people?" Looking at the manager, he was somewhat unwilling to believe this fact. Because if it was a homicide, then
If it wasn't an accident, then it would be even more difficult for him to explain it to his superiors.
Lin Jinghao couldn't answer this question. He only believed that since such a female ghost appeared, there must be a need to continue investigating the case.
The cell phone in his pocket was ringing. Lin Jinghao took it out and saw an unfamiliar number: "Gu Qing, please put your things in order. I'll answer the call."
After walking out of the monitoring room, Lin Jinghao answered the phone. It was the soft and charming voice of a strange woman: "Is this Director Lin?"
"Who are you?"
"I'm Xia Bing."
"Xia Bing?"
"Director Lin, you are such a noble person who forgets things so much. We had dinner together at Sister Feifei's place yesterday. You didn't forget it so quickly, did you?"
"Oh, beautiful model, please remember, what can I do for you?"
"I have some things about Yu Xi that I couldn't tell in front of Sister Feifei when we were having dinner. I don't know when you have time so we can meet and chat alone."
"Okay, let's choose a different date. Let's meet after get off work tonight." Xia Bing's sudden call gave Lin Jinghao an unexpected feeling in his heart.
