"Where are you going now?" Liang Xi was stopped by Bobby as soon as he came out. This question is so philosophical, where do we come from? where are we going? To be simple, apart from seeing hell, Bobby used to spend his days and nights, where can he go now?
Bobby was playing with a yo-yo that he had just bought for a hundred pounds from a kid, looking extremely lonely and lonely. The happiness of the rich and the poor is unimaginable, but playing like this every day is not interesting at all.
Liang Xi thought that his detective agency should also open source. Recently, the holy flag died down, Wendy didn't come to the door, and he didn't have much money in his pocket. In addition, changing the residence and eating and dating with Karin are all expenses.
Get some money and show Poppy around London.
Liang Xi made a phone call: "Baker, do you have any unsolved cases in the criminal investigation department that I can enjoy?" Unsolved cases refer to difficult cases that no special police detectives continue to investigate. For example, a theft case is listed as an unsolved case. One year or ten years later, a murderer is arrested. During the interrogation, the murderer confesses to the theft by his accomplices in the early years, so the unresolved case is solved. Or you can press your fingerprint at the entry and exit customs, and there will be a ding dong, which matches the fingerprint of the unsolved case, so you have new clues and you can continue to investigate.
Baker replied: "Yes, there are a lot, and we have bounties for clues on cold cases. Which one do you want?"
Liang Xi said: "The one with a lot of money."
Bobby came over: "It doesn't matter if it's money or not, the main thing is to have fun."
Liang Xi: "If you don't have money, don't do it."
Baker was on the other end of the phone and asked, "Are there any unsolved cases that are more interesting and offer a higher reward? Temporary rewards are also fine."
After chatting and joking for a while, Baker said: "The suicide case of the apartment manager was closed and listed as an unsolved case five days ago. The police raised the reward of ¡ê1,000 for clues to ¡ê2,000 15 seconds ago."
Liang Xi didn't understand: "Suicide, reward clues?" Why?
Baker replied: "Yes, the administrator's twin daughters are beautiful."
"My special?" I didn't expect that my brain circuit would be fused by Baker one day.
Baker said: "The administrator's daughter went to the office of the Assistant Superintendent of Police for many times. The new superintendent personally read the file and explained it to them. They kept communicating with the new superintendent politely. In the end, the new superintendent offered a reward of 1,000 pounds. A reward of ¡ê1,000 is on offer for anyone who can find proof that the administrator did not commit suicide."
Liang Xi understood: "A blank check. This case doesn't sound very interesting."
Baker said: "Didn't I mention that the administrator's twin daughters are beautiful?"
Liang Xi was taken aback: "I'm young, have a cup of coffee? I'll go find you."
Baker: "ok."
Liang Xi hung up the phone: "I have something to do. I'll solve the case and you pick up the girl."
Bobby: "I'm not that kind of guy. I've sworn off non-professional women."
Liang Xi walked to the car and said, "Unless you can't help it." I believe you will be a ghost.
Bobby thought for a while, and felt that what Liang Xi said was wrong. If you can't help it, you can swear that the previous oath is invalid
This apartment building is 17 stories high, with four units, and each unit has three households. The apartment belongs to the city hall, which is an apartment house provided by the city hall to low-income people. Administrators are hired by City Hall. There are 1.5 positions in the apartment building, and 1 position for the administrator. When the administrator is on vacation or not at work, the city hall will send someone to take over temporarily.
Admin duties are many, but not miserable. If the infrastructure is damaged, such as problems with water and electricity, residents can contact the administrator, and the administrator will pass the information to the city hall, which will handle it. The administrator is similar to the housekeeper of an apartment building. The qualifications of the residents are not verified by him, the rent of the residents is not his income, and the damage to the facilities of the residents is not his maintenance.
The administrator of the deceased was forty-eight years old, a somewhat obese middle-aged aunt, and her workplace was on the first floor of the apartment. After entering the access control of the apartment, you can see the mailbox of each resident. To the right of the mailbox is a long counter with an electric bell on it. Press the bell, and the administrator who is resting in the room behind the counter will come out to receive visitors. The administrator's room is not small, with well-equipped appliances, and the daily administrator lives here. If the manager is not available, you can contact the phone number placed on the counter.
At 11:30 on the day of the incident, a young couple had a conflict on the 16th floor, and the woman wanted to commit suicide by jumping out of the window. The man used his mobile phone to contact the administrator for help. The administrator said that this kind of thing was out of his control and asked him if he needed to call the police. The man believed that the main responsibility for the inability to open the windows lay with the building, and he insisted that the windows be repaired as soon as possible to satisfy his girlfriend's last wish.
?The fact is that the woman quarrels with the man and pretends to be dead, the man argues with the woman, and calls the woman to anger her.??? But if three people conspire, the risk is extremely high. They went to the lobby to wait for the takeaway around 28 minutes, and it took a few minutes to set up the suicide scene. During this period, they could not know whether there were any residents coming in or out. Once the residents proved that they only saw two people or no one, they fell. The second is the 30-minute call. The brother on the 16th floor is sure to be answered by the administrator, which means that the administrator is still alive. At this time, all 3 people were in the lobby. Because of the toss of the woman on the 16th floor, the residents on the 15th floor called the police. Assuming that the residents on the 15th floor call the police earlier or later, it doesn't make any sense for the three murderers to stay in the lobby.
Baker said: "The second one may have been said just now. The brother on the 16th floor is very sure that the administrator answered the call. The other party's speech was vague, but it must be the administrator's voice. Suppose someone kills the administrator before 28 minutes. The last 3 residents came down to wait for the takeaway, who answered the 30-minute call? Even if the murderer answered, how did the murderer leave the administrator¡¯s room without being witnessed by the 3 residents? The police searched the room after arriving, but found no one else.¡±
Also considering the possibility that the murderer mixed in with the two people waiting for the takeaway, but the elevator monitoring was not damaged, and the time when the three people left the elevator and entered the lobby was recorded. No matter how you analyze it, it is impossible to kill him, it can only be suicide.
Liang Xi asked: "Is there any non-suicide statement? For example, if you win the lottery, you will go out with your friends tomorrow."
Baker said: "The third day after the incident was the eighteenth birthday of the administrator's daughter. Is this a reason?"
Bobby interjected, "Could it be that he couldn't afford a birthday present and chose to commit suicide?"
Liang Xiheng glanced: "The rich talk about the case, but the poor don't. Only you are so poor that you can't afford a birthday present."
Liang Xi looked at Baker and asked, "Aside from the twin beauties, what's so interesting about this case?"
Baker said: "Does it count as man-made damage to the monitoring system in the hall? This monitoring system has not been better for a few days. In the past year, the city hall has repaired and replaced the monitoring system three times. After each replacement or repair, the monitoring system was restored within a few days. Damaged. The boss of the administrator called to blame the administrator. After hanging up the phone, the administrator yelled at Sang and Huai during the rush hour. Her behavior was complained by the residents, and she was warned in writing by the city hall.¡±
Liang Xi's eyes lit up: "Is there no one who likes administrators?"
Baker nodded: "Yes, I visited more than 30 households, and no one showed any grief or sadness over the death of the administrator."
Liang Xi was thoughtful: "A middle-aged woman who devotes herself to the management of the apartment has no husband, no daughter, no friends, and no entertainment. Who would hurt such a dedicated and good person? Therefore, it can only be Suicide. But considering the twin beauties you mentioned, I think it can be judged as homicide for the time being."
Baker was startled: "How?"
Liang Xi said: "A woman took a lot of sleeping pills and committed suicide by cutting her wrists with warm water. She actually answered the phone? Let's assume, what step did she go to when she answered the phone? Just swallowed sleeping pills? Or has she already woken up? After the medicine took effect, she was ready to enter the water? Or was it because of this phone call that she decided to commit suicide?"
Baker said: "Maybe I just want to be quiet for a while before I die."
Liang Xi said: "Then she shouldn't talk nonsense, but should hang up the phone and turn off the phone. The whole case seems to be fine, but the behavior of answering the phone is very weird. Have you checked the communication records?"
Baker was dissatisfied: "Liang Xi, should you respect our basic ethics and capabilities? I must have checked. The phone call between the brother on the 16th floor and the administrator lasted 48 seconds."
Liang Xi asked: "What about the financial situation of the administrator? For example, the account flow."
Baker said: "Very normal, normal expenses, normal income."
Liang Xi paused for a while and asked, "What gift did she give her two daughters? Have you prepared any birthday presents?"
Baker replied: "According to my daughter, a week ago she promised to give each of them ¡ê5,000 for a trip to Europe."
Liang Xi asked: "After the administrator died, how much money was in her account?"
Baker replied: "More than 4,000 pounds. Her husband is an alcoholic, and she is basically responsible for her daughter's living expenses. After deducting expenses every month, there is not much money left."
Poppy chimed in: "Am I right? I killed myself when I couldn't afford a birthday present."
Liang Xi glared, and Bobby walked aside knowingly, muttering in a very uncomfortable voice: Great, don't be slapped in the face by me.
Liang Xi said: "Baker, check the accounts of their whole family. If I guess correctly, she has a secret account."
Baker asked: "You mean it's the administrator who stole the household's e-mail?"
Liang Xi said: "It's very possible, otherwise, why is the monitoring often broken?"
Baker said: "Even if it was the administrator who stole the mail, our question is who killed her."
Liang Xi said: "Investigate first. If this case is homicide, there is only one possibility. Now you need Baker to rule out this possibility. As long as this possibility is ruled out, the administrator can only commit suicide."
Baker didn't ask, but Bobby couldn't help but ask, "What's the possibility?"
Liang Xi smiled: "I won't tell you."The question is who killed her. "
Liang Xi said: "Investigate first. If this case is homicide, there is only one possibility. Now you need Baker to rule out this possibility. As long as this possibility is ruled out, the administrator can only commit suicide."
Baker didn't ask, but Bobby couldn't help but ask, "What's the possibility?"
