At eight o'clock in the morning, he picked up Liang Xi and went to the crime scene. Romeo explained the case clearly in 20 minutes on the road. As Liang Xi expected, Fiona was in big trouble.

The first one: Fiona took a blood test at 6:30 in the morning. The alcohol content in her blood showed that she was drunk. Five hours ago, when Xiao Qing died, the alcohol concentration in Fiona's body was higher. Therefore,

Even Liang Xi couldn't judge whether Fiona killed Xiao Qing based on her character.

Article 2: The detective said that Fiona was already tongue-tied when she left the bar, and she would not have broken into fragments. However, in the hotel, Fiona and Xiao Qing drank two-thirds of the bottle of whiskey, and Xiao Qing had no alcohol in his system.

, indicating that Fiona was drinking alone. The first investigating police detective believed that Xiao Qing might have angered Fiona by persuading her to drink.

Article 3: Xiaoqing does not smoke, Fiona smokes, and the few cigarette butts on the ground all belong to Fiona.

Article 4: There was only Fiona’s fingerprint on the ashtray of the murder weapon. The key point is that there was cigarette ash residue on the back of Fiona’s right hand. It is speculated that when she picked up the ashtray, cigarette ash spilled on the back of her hand.

Liang Xi asked: "What does Fiona have to say about this?"

Romeo replied: "Fiona said that she might kill her, but she would never kill her. Judging from the scene and the body, Xiao Qing was fatally struck with one blow, and she had her back turned to the murderer at the time."

The two walked to room 605. Liang Xi did not rush to enter. Instead, he opened the door of room 607 opposite. Romeo looked up at the corridor surveillance camera and said: "The surveillance camera is very clear. No one has been invaded." No one will enter 605 from 607.

room without being discovered.

"Let me take a look at the murder weapon first." Liang Xi quickly saw the so-called large crystal ashtray. This thing is so big that it takes two palms of an adult man's hands to cover it. He picked it up and tried it. It was very heavy and the weight was very suitable.

Smashing. The ashtray is round, but has edges on the edge. The edges are not sharp and will not cut your hands, but it is like a mace for smashing.

An acquaintance appeared at the door, Brighton police detective Alvin. Romeo and Alvin walked into 607 and formally introduced Alvin to Liang Xi. It probably meant that because he was very good in Brighton, and there was a person inside.

As a criminal police officer, Romeo can form his own detective team. After receiving this decision, Romeo directly returned the remaining three members of his team to the human resources department, and called Alvin to ask him to come to work. Previously, all the people in this team were from the human resources department.

As a detective, there is no room for rejection of those who are sent here.

Liang Xi handed the ashtray to Ai Wen and said, "Smash it on the coffee table."

"No need." Romeo said: "The technical department has already conducted experiments, and Fiona has the power to kill."

"Smash it." Liang Xi said.

Alvin glanced at Romeo, who nodded.

Ivan smashed the ashtray on the coffee table, and several holes immediately appeared on the coffee table, one deeper hole and two shallower holes. Romeo explained: "The human head is arc-shaped, and there is only one point that bears the force.

With only one point of force, Xiao Qing can be killed with half of Aiwen's strength."

Liang Xi ignored Romeo and asked: "How does your hand feel?"

"It's uncomfortable, the shock is very uncomfortable." Ivan turned over and checked: "There may be some bruises."

Liang Xi said: "There was nothing wrong with Fiona's hands during the physical examination."

Romeo didn't answer, walked to the bathroom, took a towel and threw it to Alvin: "Put it in your hand and smash it."

Poor Aiwen started self-abuse on his first day at work. After wrapping the bag, he switched to his left hand to hit: "There was no vibration this time, and it felt easier to hold tightly. But when I hit it for the first time, my palm and fingers slipped.

Feel."

Liang Xi nodded, looked at Romeo and said, "Where are the blood stains?"

Romeo opened the tablet and searched: "Fiona said in her confession that she had no clothes on. She got up in an urgent need to urinate and used the light of the bedside lamp to wrap herself in a bath towel. There were blood stains on the bath towel."

Liang Xidao: "The confession also said that Fiona didn't know where she was and tripped over Xiao Qing's body. After checking Xiao Qing and turning Xiao Qing's head around, she realized that the deceased was Xiao Qing."

Romeo said: "The technical report states that there is a certain amount of water on the bath towel that Fiona is wrapped in. We know that Fiona is very drunk. Would she take a bath in this state? Shouldn't it be like this, using a bath towel wrapped around her body?

He grabbed the ashtray and smashed Xiao Qing to death. Xiao Qing's blood spattered onto Fiona's body. As a police officer, she instinctively knew that this was not going to work, so she went to take a shower and dried her body with a towel."

Liang Xidao: "Suppose the body was found around 5 o'clock in the morning and the bath towel was stained with blood, then the blood should be in the shape of dots. Suppose you take a shower after the murder and wipe your body with a bath towel. The blood on the bath towel will be in the form of paste. The fact is that the blood on the bath towel is in the form of dots.

Point-like.”

Romeo said: "You used the wrong word. Instead of drying her body with a bath towel, you wrapped her body casually, and even went to bed without a bath towel. The confession also said that she was sleeping without any clothes on, and when she woke up, she could see with the help of the bedside lamp

There is a bath towel next to the bed."

Ai Wen watched the two people arguing and analyzing the evidence. They each stood in a position to analyze the evidence at the scene. Listening to them argue for two minutes was equivalent to browsing all the evidence.

Forget about Romeo, after all, it was following the case. Ivan was surprised how Liang Xi could remember so many details. He only had 20 minutes to listen to Romeo's introduction and read the materials. This may be Liang Xi's detective talent, he can remember important details.

.He may not be able to recite these details, but he can think of them when needed.

…

After simulating the scene in the next room, Liang Xi finally entered the crime scene of 605. Physical evidence has been collected, and based on the photos and the number plates placed on the ground, we can know what has appeared at the crime scene at each location.

There were not too many signs but not too many. It was considered a typical scene. The position where the body was lying, the ashtray, and scattered cigarette butts and ashes. Liang Xi pressed his fingers on the carpet, took off his gloves and pressed again with his fingers. He was not sure: "Yes."

Isn’t there water?” Water drops or water stains.

"Absolutely." Romeo said: "The deceased was wrapped in a bathrobe and his hair was still wet. He had obviously taken a bath."

"Have you washed your hair?" Liang Xi asked. Xiaoqing was originally at home and received a call from Phil to pick up Fiona. How could she wash her hair in the hotel?

Romeo nodded.

Liang Xi asked: "Did Fiona vomit?" Is there vomit on her hair?

"No vomit was found at the scene."

Liang Xi stood up and looked around the scene. It was an ordinary hall-style double bed room with only one room, which combined the functions of a living room, a bedroom and a study. Bed A against the wall was obviously where Fiona slept, and bed B was

The wrinkles in the sheets indicate that someone has sat on them. Directly opposite the two beds is a TV, and to the left of the TV is a desk. Liang Xi looked at the scene picture: "There is a laptop on the desk."

"It belongs to Xiao Qing." Romeo said, "The computer bag Fiona carries is placed next to the pillow."

Between the two beds is a bedside table with a crystal ashtray. There is also a classical glass and a small bottle of whiskey on it. Xiao Qing's body is with his feet in the lower right corner of bed B and his head near the corner of the desk. Liang Qi walked away.

He went to lie down between bed B and the desk, then stood up, imitating Xiao Qing's position, and said doubtfully: "What is she doing?"

Not sitting in front of the desk, not sitting on bed B, but standing in the lower right corner of bed B, falling towards the desk.

Liang Xi didn't wait for Romeo to answer, looked at bed A, and imagined Fiona lying here without clothes, covered with a blanket? Liang Xi said: "Undressing is a process. When she leaned on the bedside to smoke and drink, she wore

Do you have your clothes?"

Romeo didn't quite understand what Liang Xi meant when he asked, "Is there any difference?"

Liang Xidao: "What is their relationship? Are they a couple? Let's assume that they are not a couple. Fiona is leaning naked on the bedside, smoking and drinking. Wouldn't this cause Xiao Qing's disgust? Since Fiona can still smoke

Drinking alcohol shows that she still has certain behavioral capabilities and should not be able to take off her clothes."

Romeo's eyes lit up: "They are lovers. At least they have witnessed each other's naked body. This seems to explain why Fiona did not vomit and Xiaoqing took a bath."

Liang Xi motioned Romeo to look at bed A: "This is not a battlefield."

Romeo and Liang Xi looked at the two beds and the empty carpet in front of the TV. Liang Xi said: "Fiona took an ashtray and lay on the ground to smoke. This may have led to Xiao Qing's death. They are done.

, Xiao Qing went to take a shower, and Fiona smoked. After smoking, Fiona went back to bed and lay down in a daze. After Xiao Qing came out of the bathroom, he stepped on the ashtray and fell, hitting his head on the ashtray."

In Romeo's mind, he imagined the scene where Xiao Qing stepped on the ashtray and hit his head on the ashtray. This meant that Xiao Qing had to rotate 180 degrees: "This is impossible, people will only fall forward. In addition, no cigarette ash was found on Xiao Qing's body.

"

Liang Xi asked: "If he fell down and hit his head on the ashtray, would it be consistent with the scene?"

Romeo thought for a long time: "Difficulties. The first difficulty is that this is a carpet, not a smooth marble. The second difficulty is that the point of force must be completely on the wound position. Xiao Qing's back cannot touch the ground, but his head should touch the ground. The third difficulty is that

This is a difficulty. There are no smooth objects at the scene. According to the current situation, the only way to excuse Fiona is an accident. When the two were fighting, Fiona pushed Xiao Qing down."

Liang Xi said: "But the problem is that Fiona was already lying on the floor smoking, and Xiao Qing came out of the bathroom, which means that their fight has come to an end. I think I should see Fiona first, and let's first determine whether Fiona and Xiao Qing are

There is a possibility of a couple relationship.”

Romeo fully agreed: "There is a tragedy caused by Fiona's failure to woo Xiao Qing, or Xiao Qing's failure to woo Fiona. We don't know how they get along, so we can't make further inferences."

Liang Xi said: "Perhaps Fiona was paralyzed on the ground, and Xiaoqing failed when he tried to pull Fiona to put her to bed."

When Ivan heard this, he couldn't help but interject: "Mr. Liang, you seem to be trying to help Fiona get away with it."

"Otherwise?" Liang Xi asked back: "Otherwise, what is the purpose of inviting me here? Do you want me to convict Fiona?" Facing Alvin, who is slightly older than him, Liang Xi's tone is not polite at all. Liang Xi is here

In front of Ai Wen was a professional senior, but Ai Wen's tone was straightforward in his suspicion of Liang Xi.

Romeo explained to Alvin: "When the murderer does not remember the case, this kind of case must be seamless in order to be convicted, so one person needs to find faults and complete all the evidence. If it is an ordinary case, with our current

With the evidence I have, I have a certain degree of confidence in persuading the suspect to plead guilty."

Liang Xi asked: "Where are the Fiona people?"

Romeo said: "I didn't control Fiona, I just informed her to go to the North District Criminal Investigation Department to take notes today. I told her that I must take notes for her personally, so she should be waiting at the North District Criminal Investigation Department now. Or she has escaped.

Siberia.”

Liang Xi made a request: "I want to talk to her alone."

"Yes, but I have to be present." Romeo said, "No video recording, no presentation in court."

Liang Xi hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement. Liang Xi turned to look at the crime scene: "Simple scene, simple case."

Romeo knew that Liang Xi was already inclined to believe that Fiona was the murderer, and said with relief: "According to the alcohol test, even if it is finally proven that Fiona killed Xiao Qing, she might only be charged with manslaughter and second-degree murder. Fiona is still

He has military and police experience and no criminal record. If he pleads guilty well and hires a good lawyer, he may not be given a suspended sentence."

"This is also a big problem." Liang Xi said, still frowning: "After the lawyer intervened, Fiona faced a dilemma. In her memory, she did not kill anyone, but for a misdemeanor she could not gamble on whether she had.

If you really commit murder, you may choose to plead guilty."
