Chapter 376 The Bobby Case
Maybe Mordo was right.But Liang Xi knew very well that he didn't have the ability to deal with complicated matters such as the Dark Society and the blade.He has to keep things simple.Modo is different. He was born in the golden age of detectives and is an earl himself. He has a lot of resources and information including temples.The two detectives have quite different ideas. Modo prefers to look at the essence through the surface, while Liang Xi prefers to only look at the surface.

C needs an organ transplant, and her husband B is the match, so B finds their mutual friend A, hoping that A can kill himself.As a result, A kills B.

In Liang Xi's view, A's killing is A's killing.

It is very troublesome to analyze the essence. In order to save C, A kills B at the request of B. B is worried that C will think that it is his fault and regret for the rest of his life, so A admits that he simply wants to kill B.On a deeper level, B loves C deeply, A loves B deeply, and C loves A deeply.On a deeper level, C hopes that B will die so that he can be with A with healthy organs. A thinks that C loves B deeply, and as a third party, he reluctantly fulfills his lover B's request.Deeper and deeper: He thought she didn't know, but he didn't know that she knew, but she didn't know, he thought she didn't know.

I want to kill you, it's okay, I can think about it.I killed you, and that's all right, because it's the truth.You can't kill me just because you guessed that I wanted to kill you.Afterwards, you still plausibly asked, since you didn't kill me, why did you buy a knife?Crazy, I can buy whatever I want, it's none of your business.

Liang Xi only focused on the facts, because his energy could only simplify the story behind the facts.Regarding Operation Blood Dawn, Liang Xi's idea was also simple: someone wanted to kill the patron to silence him because he didn't want to expose Davis.Enough is enough, just dig Davis out.As for the behind-the-scenes story of Davis's grievances and hatreds, don't worry about it.

There is an objective generation gap in the thinking of the two detectives. Modo's in-depth thinking is fundamentally different from Liang Xi's two-dimensional thinking.However, Liang Xi benefited a lot.Modo thought deeply and did not get an answer, but asked more and more questions, allowing Liang Xi to grasp the core elements of some cases.

Gentlemen seek common ground while reserving differences, because they know that no two people think exactly alike.I don't agree with your point of view, but I respect your point of view.You also cannot ask me to follow your point of view.

……

Maid Anka is an orphan. She is 25 years old and was adopted by Modo 15 years ago. She is an adopted daughter in the legal sense of Modo, but she does not have title and fief inheritance rights.Anka returned to the manor after graduating from university at the age of 22. While studying for a postgraduate degree in economics and management, she began to work in the manor as a butler assistant.If there is no problem, she will be the next manor housekeeper.

Liang Xi liked the guest room that Anka arranged for Liang Xi, and he hadn't burned a wood stove for a long, long time.Had breakfast with Modo the next morning. Modo did a lot of homework last night, and discussed with Liang Xi the unsolved cases he encountered in his life.This made Liang Xi full of admiration for Modo.Reasonably speaking, with Modo's qualifications, he should mention the strange and important cases he solved in front of his juniors.

Modo's coverage is very wide, because of his aristocratic status, half of the cases in his life were related to the upper class.The first case that troubled Modo was the amber case in the 70s. The young Modo made detailed notes, but he was still unable to distinguish who was lying among the four. This case was a theft case, and the stolen blood amber has never been found. show up.Through analysis and comparison, Liang Xi believed that there were contradictions in the speeches of the two people, which violated the season time.Just check the weather in Sweden on that day more than 40 years ago to find out who is lying.

Contrary to Liang Xi, Modo doesn't like studying. He prefers practical experience, and prefers to consult and learn from experienced and knowledgeable people.Liang Xi's ability comes from books, and John plays more of a guiding role than a teaching role.Liang Xi's rich knowledge reserve is very helpful to Modo.Liang Xi's knowledge is not specialized, but very extensive.History, geography, astronomy, divination, religion, military affairs, medicine, machinery, etc. are involved. Most of the books I read are entry-level books. If you are interested, you will learn more. If you are not interested, you are limited to beginners.For example, religion, why can religion change people's thinking and thoughts so much?So Liang Xi compared the daily propaganda and dogmas of various sects and even oblique religions. He even asked himself, is an atheist himself a religion?

Sometimes research and thinking can sometimes get some outrageous answers, and it is difficult to find answers that resonate on the Internet.Liang Xi’s self-answer on religious thinking is: There may be gods in this world, but gods are unknown to the world. Anyway, they are not the gods in the daily understanding of various sects or in film and television works and novels.As for what it is, Liang Xi thinks that he does not have the latitude of thinking, so he gives up and continues to think about it.

It is difficult for this idea to resonate on the Internet. Atheists firmly believe that there is no God, and various sects firmly believe that their own god is the true God.There are also people who believe that the bosses of all sects are true gods.

Modo asked Liang Xi, did you finally figure it out?Liang Xi replied that he had no way to figure it out.Moduo smiled and told Liang Xi, since you can't figure it out, and you can't have an answer, why do you still have to distinguish between true and false?Whether there is a God or not, why not make your own happiest and most beneficial choice?
This stay lasted for a week, and when the weather was cold, we talked about cases and philosophy by the fire.When the weather is nice, we go for a walk together.It wasn't until Baker called that Liang Xi left and returned home.

……

There is a young woman named Shirley who became a starlet by virtue of a talent show.Bobby used his strength to sleep with others, and Shirley's mother threatened Shirley with this, and won a very good contract for Shirley, and participated in the filming of an epic movie directed by Frank as the second female lead.

A day ago, the exterior scenes of the movie were shot, and the rest will be shot in the studio, supplemented by modern special effects for post-processing.In order to celebrate the success of the location shooting, a celebration party was held in the conference room on the 27th floor of the Four Sails Hotel.In addition to the crew and actors, many stars, directors, screenwriters and producers from England and even other countries attended the party.

Bobby, who is the director of Rank, also attended the party and reconciled with Rank at the party.First, Shirley is more obedient in the crew, and second, knowing that Bobby has suffered a lot, Rank forgave Bobby.

The party is from [-]:[-] pm to [-]:[-] pm. Today is the birthday of the leading actor in the movie. A big cake was specially customized for him. The birthday party will be held at [-]:[-] pm, and half an hour will be used to review the leading actor with edited videos Acting career.This is a very high affirmation of the actor's acting skills and status.

The party time was 10:40 in the evening, and when the film played to the last [-] minutes, the police interrupted the party.The police first asked to turn on the lights and check that everyone's identity was registered.It was later learned that at [-]:[-], Shirley fell to her death, and Shirley landed by the swimming pool at the back door of the Four Sails Hotel.There is an outdoor swimming pool at the back door that is closed due to the season, and [-] meters away from the swimming pool is a small artificial beach.

Although the weather is relatively cold, there are still tourists who go to the beach to play, and there are supporting facilities and staff. When they find the situation, they call the police as soon as possible.After the police arrived, they notified the criminal police to intervene. At the same time, they recognized the star Shirley who fell from the building. After inquiring, they learned that there was a celebrity party on the 27th floor. After communicating with the police, the police went to the party scene to record everyone present.

According to the police investigation, no damage was found to the glass of the hotel.Because of the neon lights outside the hotel, the curtains were all closed when the movie was played at the party, and the people at the scene did not notice the sign of the curtains being opened.The police therefore locked the 26th floor under the crew package.The good news is that the security personnel of the crew blocked the stairs and elevators on the 26th floor. They proved that no outsiders entered or exited the 26th and 27th floors at the time of the incident.The bad news is that in order to avoid paparazzi behavior, the hotel closed all surveillance on the 27th and 26th floors at the request of the crew.

Through measurements, the technical department basically determined that Shirley fell from the row of rooms 06, with a height of 24-28 floors. The 28th floor is the rooftop, and the rooftop door is locked. Only the security manager has the key. According to the on-site investigation, there are no signs of recent personnel activities. Room 2606 is Shirley's room. It is speculated that Shirley fell from the small balcony, and there was a bottle of mineral water with Shirley's fingerprints on the table on the small balcony.

There are seventeen people's fingerprints in Shirley's room. According to transcripts and fingerprint investigation, ten people cannot be sure whether they left the party at 8:20, and it is impossible to determine whether they entered Shirley's room in 2606.

Security personnel set up tables and chairs on the three staircases of the 25th and a half floors to block all people going upstairs.The elevator monitoring did not capture any suspicious persons. The detective speculated that the murderer went from the 27th floor to the 26th floor through the stairs, entered Shirley's room, and killed Shirley.Of course, the possibility of suicide has not been ruled out yet, but the detectives could not find a reason for Shirley's suicide, nor could they find evidence of Shirley's suicide.There is no will, no last words, and no explanation, which does not conform to ordinary suicide.

The fingerprints of drama managers, agents, makeup artists, editors, directors and assistant directors all appeared in Shirley's room.The crew explained to the police that they checked into the hotel two days ago, one reason was to plan a birthday party for the actor, and the other reason was that the director team had to communicate with the main actors and put forward the requirements for indoor shooting.The most troublesome is Shirley who has no acting experience.

In one scene, a woman stands on a platform that slowly descends, surrounded by fighting monsters and humans, and the whole city is ablaze.This scene was added later, and what was to be filmed was the woman standing on the platform, making the assumption of slowly descending, using eyes and movements to match the later scene.There is no problem for old actors, but it is a big problem for new actors, especially in terms of grasping details.New actors are required to have imagination.For example, if a bullet flies, and you swipe it with two fingers to fly handsomely, you not only need to be natural, but also handsome, and you need actors to act out of imagination.

Nine of the ten people explained when and why they went to Shirley's room, which is why they left their fingerprints.The tenth person is Poppy. Poppy denies leaving the party when the video is played, and also denies going to Shirley's room, but Shirley's room has Poppy's fingerprints.Bobby changed his story and said that he met Shirley before the party.Bobby arrived at the hotel at 6:30, and the assistant director proved that Bobby met her at the party at 6:34, so it was impossible for Bobby to go to Shirley's room at the party.Bobby responded, talk to my lawyer.So Bobby became the number one suspect.

At present, the police are still unable to determine whether Shirley fell from the building by herself. Baker couldn't tell Liang Xi too much due to discipline. He just told Liang Xi that Bobby was more troublesome.If you have time, as a friend, Liang Xi should restore Bobby's innocence, and help the North District solve the case by the way.

I learned this when I was just married, and it's hopeless!
……

The head of the bodyguard came to pick up the plane in person, and Liang Xi told the head of the bodyguard that things were a bit complicated.Baker was warned by the Internal Affairs Bureau for simply explaining the superficial facts of the case to himself.It still depends on Liang Xi's face that he didn't punish Baker.Liang Xi is a friend of Bobby, and Bobby is the number one suspect in the case. Liang Xi has the ability to fabricate fake cases, so the Internal Affairs Bureau does not allow anyone to disclose the current police clues to Liang Xi.The information available is only available to lawyers.

The chief bodyguard explained that they took the elevator to take Bobby to the 25th floor that day. Except for one exclusive elevator, the other elevators could not go directly to the 26th and 27th floors.Walking up the stairs to the 25 and a half floors, the chief bodyguard went to the party with Poppy, and the other bodyguards moved around the hotel on their own.

Eight o'clock is turning off most of the lights and rolling out the birthday cake.After everyone gathered in front of the cake to congratulate and make a wish, the lights were turned on again.Then director Rank asked the staff to turn off most of the strong lights, leaving only a small part of the downlights, and began to play the edited movie of the leading actor.Just before the lights were turned off at eight o'clock, the chief bodyguard saw Shirley walking towards Bobby, and Shirley left the party when the hero made a birthday wish and accepted everyone's congratulations.

At 8:7, director Rank spoke, Bobby left the party, the head of the bodyguard asked questions, and Bobby waved his hand and left alone.

At 8:10, play the video.During the period, people left or entered the party one after another.The chief bodyguard remembered that it was a female assistant director and a supporting actor who went to the room opposite the meeting room of the party. The assistant director reprimanded the supporting actor and told the supporting actor to ask his agent to be honest. The chief bodyguard did not know the specific situation.

At around 8:20, the head of the bodyguard thought there was a 1 minute discrepancy. Bobby entered the party with messy hair. He combed his hair randomly with his hands, walked to a corner, and stayed alone against the wall for a long time.Since Bobby has come back, the chief bodyguard no longer pays attention to the people who come in and out, and does not remember the people who come back to the party after 20 minutes.

Bobby only talked about the matter with the lawyer, and did not discuss the case with the bodyguards. The head of the bodyguards does not know what the situation is now.

Liang Xi asked: "As far as you think, is it possible that Bobby did this?"

The chief bodyguard did not answer directly, but asked instead: "If Mr. Bobby did it, what are Mr. Liang's plans?"

"No matter what, Shirley is not a bad person. If Bobby really killed Shirley and there is no other reason, at most I will not care about it. I don't rule out assisting the police to convict Bobby." Liang Xi saw the bodyguard looking He glanced at himself and explained: "I don't like Darwin's jungle culture. I think people should have a basic distinction between right and wrong, not just interests. Another case, Bobby raped a certain girl, do you expect me to fabricate false evidence to Get him off? No, it's impossible. I wouldn't make friends with such a person."

Liang Xi said: "Is it possible for Bobby to kill Shirley? In my opinion, it is possible. When Bobby is provoked by Shirley, he may accidentally kill Shirley. The fence of the small balcony is 1.5 meters high. Shirley 1.7 meters. Bobby pushed Shirley angrily, and subjectively wanted to push Shirley away, but unexpectedly caused Shirley to fall out of the balcony and fall to her death. Will Bobby murder Shirley? It is almost impossible. Bobby will Not murdering Shirley himself? Impossible."

Liang Xi said: "I'm just a detective. If there is any inconvenience, it's best not to let me in. Don't expect me to help Bobby to forge a case."
