    "You mean, maybe someone entered this room after the incident and lit the fire in this hot weather?" After all, Ma Ming has been a solicitor for many years, and he does not work for free.

    "You are quite smart." Zhou Yi smiled and said: "Isn't this strange enough? Who would use the fireplace instead of turning on the air conditioner on a hot day? And according to Zhang Shui, no one has turned on this at all during this time.  He probably didn¡¯t tell lies about the room. After the murder, this room has become a murder room, who would still use it?¡±

    "Hmm It's a bit strange, but it's not inexplicable, right?" Ma Ming thought for a while and said, "Didn't you also say that the air in Xiangjiang is humid, and this small hotel does not have a dryer or other things, in order to reduce the humidity  , maybe the management will light the fireplace regularly to dry out the room? Not to mention when the ashes were produced, and whether it has anything to do with this case, I still don¡¯t quite understand.¡±

    "Come and take a look at the fireplace flue." Zhou Yi said with a smile.

    "Ah, this is" Ma Ming frowned and walked to the fireplace, looking up at the flue of the fireplace. Because this room was on the 8th floor, the flue of the fireplace was only more than five meters long.  The sunlight allowed him to clearly see what was going on inside the flue.

    From the bottom of the fireplace upwards, the section about two meters away is covered with black new ashes, and nothing can be seen.  However, the approximately three-meter-long section of the flue above is also covered with a thin layer of new furnace ashes, but if you look carefully, you can still find some wide areas below the new furnace ashes and on top of the aged furnace mud.  There are about ten centimeters of traces that go straight to the top of the flue. These traces are not arranged in a straight line, but are intertwined with each other. The distance between them is just like the reasonable distance between a person's limbs when climbing with his limbs stretched out!

    ? Judging from these traces.  If it is really a person left behind, then this person's figure should be of a petite size. If it is not a short man, then it is a woman.

    "There was really a fourth person, and this person escaped from the flue? Later, someone lit the fire just to cover up the traces with the newly generated ashes!"

    "Haha, you finally understand, but the point is not here yet."

    Zhou Yi looked around: "According to the transcript provided by the police, the police arrived quickly after the incident. The first batch to enter were definitely not military uniforms but forensic evidence. In other words, the scene was not destroyed at that time. This real  After the murderer pushed or knocked Huang Guangming downstairs, he still had to escape through the flue and could not have time to deal with the scene. This is strange. The forensics in Xiangjiang are all very professional people. Why didn't they find out?  Traces of a fourth person?¡±

    "You mean" Ma Ming's face changed: "This is unlikely, the deceased was just a little gangster"

    "Little gangsters sometimes mess with people they shouldn't mess with." Zhou Yi sneered: "Judging from the clean and neat methods of this fourth party, he is probably a professional killer. The person who really wants Huang Guangming to die is actually a hired killer.  The person behind the scenes is very powerful and can even control the forensic evidence to destroy the killer's traces. For example, the forensic evidence needs to enter the room and light the fire. But it is very convenient"

    "Mr. Zhou, I have to say that you are quite Conan-like, but I'm afraid you think too much"

    Ma Ming smiled and shook his head and said: "There are too many doubts: first. If there was really a mastermind behind the scenes, how could he choose to kill people at this time? Did he know that Huang Guangming and Qin Shuimei would definitely walk into this room on the day of the crime? Want to kill someone?  When can't you kill? Does it have to be so complicated? Also. Why didn't the killer kill Qin Shuimei and the drug-addicted girl, and how did the killer sneak in? "

    "What Huang Guangming knows must have a great impact. Maybe he has told his friends or hidden it somewhere. If the mastermind behind the scenes kills him using conventional methods, it will cause very troublesome consequences, so he  Been waiting"

    Zhou Yi said with a smile: "The great thing about this person is that he has mastered Huang Guangming's movement trajectory, and he can also know the police's actions at the first time. On the day of the incident, the police set up bait at Liyou Hotel, and Huang Guangming  Guangming has a long-term cooperative relationship with this hotel, so the mastermind behind it will naturally think that this is an opportunity to fish in troubled waters."

    "The killer should be a woman, and a woman who would not attract anyone's attention. She should have sneaked into the hotel that day, waiting for an opportunity. Unexpectedly, Qin Shuimei and Huang Guangming entered Room 801 at the same time, and had a dispute. They were against her and the mastermind behind her.  From a human perspective, is there any better opportunity than this?"

    Zhou Yi smiled and said: "She killed Huang Guangming and left calmly. Anyone would think that Huang Guangming was killed by Qin Shuimei. In this way, the mastermind behind the scenes would not have to worry that his secret would be revealed because of Huang Guangming's death.  This is also the reason why the killer did not kill Qin Shuimeiface reasons.  "

    "The superficial reason?" Ma Ming asked doubtfully: "I don't understand more and more. When we were at the police station, Qin Shuimei didn't mention any killer? If there was a killer when the crime happened, why didn't Qin Shuimei say anything? Isn't this right?  Is she very advantageous?¡±

    "I can only guess one reason why she didn't say"

    Zhou Yi paused for a moment before saying: "Maybe she didn't see the killer at all!"

    "This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible!" Ma Ming shook his head repeatedly: "Mr. Zhou, we are in the real world now, not the world of Conan. You have to figure it out."

    "Nothing is impossible" Zhou Yi said with a smile: "I just said that this is just the 'superficial reason' why the killer did not kill Qin Shuimei. In fact, there is another meaning. We might as well make a bold guess about the person who instigated the killer.  Or maybe the killer himself doesn¡¯t really want Qin Shuimei to die, and he doesn¡¯t even want her to be guilty of murder"

    "Brother, the more I listen, the more confused I become" Ma Ming felt dizzy and looked at Zhou Yi blankly. Is this guy really living in the real world, not in the world of comics?

    "You are also a lawyer, can't you figure it out?"

    Zhou Yi sighed: "Even if the killer wanted to put the blame on Qin Shuimei, then why didn't she kill the drug-addicted woman? You know, it is always not conducive to her to have more than one person alive. Brother Ma, think about it carefully, what is the role of the drug-addicted woman alive?  Is it good for us or bad?¡±

    "Drug addict girl" Ma Ming frowned and thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Awesome, Mr. Zhou, you are indeed the number one genius at Xiangjiang University in a century! If nothing else, it's just your idea.  There aren¡¯t many big lawyers in Xiangjiang, right?¡±

    ***

    Qin Shuimei, who was imprisoned in the Correctional Institution, was wearing a prison uniform, and the makeup on her face had been washed away. This gave people the feeling of "hibiscus comes out of pure water, and is naturally carved away".  She is indeed a beauty. If coupled with a good background and aristocratic status, her charm may not be inferior to Luo Bing's.

    Seeing Zhou Yi and Ma Ming, Qin Shuimei seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. She grabbed Zhou Yi's hand and said: "Lawyer Zhou, how is Meimei?"

    ¡°Don¡¯t worry about Meimei, the Social Welfare Department has taken her in, and there are dedicated volunteers who provide her with regular psychological counseling.¡±

    Zhou Yi said: "What you need to worry about now is yourself."

    "Thenthen is there still hope for my case? Attorney Zhou, you promised that you would be able to help me escape, right?" Qin Shuimei shook her head, her voice getting louder and louder: "I can't go to jail, I  I still have to take care of Meimei, and I still have to"

    "I said, the word 'no' has never been in my dictionary!"

    Zhou Yi leaned forward slightly and stared into Qin Shuimei's eyes: "But the premise is that you must be honest with me! Tell me, why are you lying?"

    "I" Qin Shuimei was stunned, her eyes obviously panicked.

    "Ms. Qin, lying to your lawyer is the stupidest behavior!" Ma Ming snorted: "If you do this, it is equivalent to sending yourself to prison with your own hands, do you understand?"

    "II don't want to either. Butbut I dare not say iteven if I say it, no one will believe it" Qin Shuimei lowered her head.

    "Are you worried that someone is threatening you?" Zhou Yi said with a smile: "Don't worry, I need to know all the facts before I can help you. And lawyers have confidentiality obligations to their clients. Even if you tell me that you are the murderer, we still have  You are obliged to keep it secret. Now, tell me everything you know in detail. Don¡¯t miss a single detail.¡±

    "Okay then, I'll say"

    Qin Shuimei began to recall: "On the day of the incident, Huang Guangming, a bastard, took me to the Liyou Hotel to meet a guest. Unexpectedly, the guest was dressed as a policeman. When the police were about to arrest Huang Guangming, he resisted arrest and caused chaos, so I took the opportunity to talk to him  We ran out together"

    "At this time, I saw Meimei and saw her running out of a room in a bathrobe. I understood everything. No wonder Huang Guangming once asked me to wait downstairs for a while. He must be one of his bad guys.  He brought Meimei with him. He was taking Meimei to meet the guests. Lawyer Zhou, Meimei is only fourteen years old. She is still a child, a child! II hate this bastard Huang Guangming"

    Zhou Yi nodded: "I understand all this. You focus on what happened in room 801."

    "Huang Guangming and I had a fierce argument in the room. I called him a bastard and he beat me." Qin Shuimei said: "I also scratched his face and we struggled with him from the middle of the living room to near the window of the living room.  ¡­¡±

    "Then what?"

    "Then, I suddenlyI heard a woman talking in my ear" Qin Shuimei's face turned pale: "She only said one sentence, 'Hire a good lawyer, and we will look after your daughter.'  "

    "What happens next?" This time it was Ma Ming who asked.  He admires Zhou Yi so much now. This girl is so awesome. Not only was he right about the appearance of a fourth person at the crime scene, but he also guessed the gender correctly. It's a waste for him to be a lawyer. He should be a detective.  right.

    "I heard the sound and saw Huang Guangming looking behind me in surprise. I wanted to look back, but I felt like a mosquito bite on the back of my neck, and then I couldn't see anything"  Recalling the scene that day, Qin Shuimei still had a look of horror on her face: "At the same time, I heard Huang Guangming's scream. I guessed that he might have fallen, but I was really afraid that he would fall to death.  Then I can¡¯t explain clearly, so¡­¡±

    "So you subconsciously took a step forward, trying to pull him back. You were afraid that after he fell and died, the police would suspect you as the murderer. And although you hated him, you never thought of killing anyone. You took this step  , just arrived in front of the window, right?"

    Zhou Yi was secretly surprised that such a powerful female killer would appear in Xiangjiang?  The method she used to make Qin Shuimei lose her eyesight in an instant included acupuncture techniques, as well as certain micro-toxic substances produced by modern technology, but these two methods are not available to ordinary killers

    Moreover, the certified accountant actually only saw two people scuffling and did not see the female killer. This shows that her body skills have reached the level of what is called in the martial arts world, "the bones follow the body". She hid herself behind Qin Shuimei. This  The killer is absolutely world class!

    "Yes, Lawyer Zhou, you seemed to be at the scene at that time. It's really amazing" Qin Shuimei began to smile. The stronger her lawyer is, the greater the chance of being freed from guilt.

    "That woman said, 'We will watch your daughter,' so you were worried that they would hurt Meimei, so when the police asked you, you concealed things about this woman, right?" Zhou Yi continued to analyze.

    "Actually, no one would believe this kind of thing, and I didn't see with my own eyes that she killed Huang Guangming. I can't prove what I didn't see" Qin Shuimei said: "That's why I said, Huang Guangming  Guangming fell down on his own, because he screamed almost at the same time I lost my sight, or maybe he was frightened by the female killer and fell down accidentally"

    "Haha, this is possible, but it is less than one ten thousandth, but you have convinced yourself to tell such a lie?" Zhou Yi said with a smile: "Let me regard it as a true lie. Ms. Qin  , you are actually very smart. Under the circumstances at that time, after considering various conditions and analyzing the pros and cons, you can neither admit that you killed the person nor testify against this 'surreal' female killer. You can only say that Huang Guangming is you.  Even if there is only one in 10,000 chance of falling to death, this situation may not happen. At least, this is a doubt."

    In the Anglo-American legal system, "the benefit of the doubt belongs to the defendant", even if the doubt is only one ten thousandth; if there is no definite evidence to exclude it, then the defendant should benefit. Of course, this is unthinkable in China, don't  It is said that "the benefit of the doubt belongs to the defendant", and even the "presumption of innocence" is beyond the comprehension of investigators.

    "Ms. Qin, please recall, is that woman's voice familiar?" Zhou Yi asked.

    This female killer is very interesting. She clearly put the blame on Qin Shuimei, but she reminded her to find a good lawyer. She also deliberately left the flaw of being a drug-addicted woman, obviously to let the defense lawyer find a way to get rid of the murder charge.  , her 'concern' for Qin Shuimei made Zhou Yi feel a little strange.

    "I've never heard this sound before"

    "Oh?" Zhou Yi was slightly startled. This was a bit strange. Could it be that the person who ordered the killer had some special relationship with Qin Shuimei: "Ms. Qin, have you ever met any friends who are very rich or have status?"
