fog city detective

Chapter 589
Karin went to work, and Liang Xijing, who returned to the apartment alone, sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in a daze until noon.Liang Xi put his thoughts aside, found something for himself, and took the pickled food to the rooftop for barbecue.

After eating food and drinking drinks, Liang Xi lay down on the bench on the roof, watching the white clouds in the sky and slowly falling asleep.During this time he had a daydream.This is a dilapidated street, Fiona stood mournfully across the street looking at Liang Xi and Karin, Karin smiled triumphantly, and suddenly pushed Liang Xi to Fiona.Liang Xifei went to Fiona for a long time, he turned around and shouted no, but he couldn't see Karin.

The scene became blurred, Phil appeared on the street sitting on the sofa, biting a cigar in his mouth, wearing aviator sunglasses, Xiao Qing lit Phil on fire.A helicopter appeared overhead, and Poppy's voice said, "Run."

Liang Xi looked up, but couldn't see clearly, it was a vast expanse of whiteness: "There is nowhere to run, and I can't run out."

Karin appeared, and she stroked her pregnant belly: "If you die, I can only become someone else's bride."

Accompanied by the buzzing sound, Phil fired a rocket at Liang Xi while laughing, and Liang Xi woke up.Looking for the buzzing sound, it turned out that my phone was on vibration: "Hello."

"Mr. Liang, I am Shadow Express, how do I open the elevator?"

Liang Xi switched his mobile phone and saw a courier holding a large mail envelope in his hand. Liang Xi said, "Just put the mail in the elevator."

Courier: "Just put it in the elevator?"

"Correct."

After the courier left, Liang Xi operated the mobile phone, and the elevator went up to the 24th floor.Liang Xi took the envelope to the room and closed the door. Looking at the envelope, there was no address written on it, no name of the recipient, and almost no information, except for the sealant on the seal.This is a letter that has never been opened.

Liang Xi read the mail for a long time, threw the mail on the ground aside, went to the kitchen to make a cup of tea, took the tea back to the roof, and sat on the bench to admire the blue sky and white clouds.

Before Karin came back, Liang Xi went to the supermarket, bought food and daily necessities, and cooked dishes. After Karin came back, smelling the aroma, she went to the kitchen and stayed with Liang Xi for a while, helping with food and drinks. Set out knives, forks and chopsticks.It was at this time that Karin saw the mail that had been thrown aside, and when she picked it up, it was sealant, which was mainly used to transmit confidential information.

Karin checked it with a professional technique, and there was no sign of it being opened.Squeeze it, the envelope paper of the mail is very thick, and you can't feel that there is anything else inside.Looking back at Liang Xi who was about to bring out the dishes, Karin put the mail back where it was, and went to the kitchen to take the white-cut chicken that Liang Xi sent: "Honey, why is the white-cut chicken I cook so dry and old? Your white-cut chicken The chicken is tender and fat?"

Liang Xidao: "This is a capon I bought in Chinatown. First of all, it is a capon. Secondly, after it was bought by the merchant, it was fed with rice, millet and other foods for at least four months. Finally, the method of killing the chicken was slightly different. It’s different, let the blood out first, so that the meat will have less fishy smell.”

It is said that pork in some countries such as Britain and Australia has a strong fishy smell, and one of the reasons is that they do not bleed.Why would you rather make the meat unpalatable than let the blood out?It is said to be related to their slaughter regulations.

Before Karin brought the chicken to the table, she couldn't help but eat two pieces first. Looking back at Liang Xi, she grinned as if she had been caught on the spot.

Liang Xi kissed Karin's face, and said: "My dad once described to me the country chickens in the countryside. There is a very thick layer of fat wrapped between the skin and meat of the big rooster's drumsticks. It is light yellow and will splatter when bitten down. The kind. A big chicken leg is enough for an average woman to eat for a meal."

Karin asked, "Don't you guys fry chicken chops?"

"Only frozen chicken will be used to fry chicken chops." Liang Xi sat down, saw the mail on the opposite side, sighed softly and walked over to fetch the mail, with an expression on his face that was hard to describe.

Karin waited for a while and asked, "Is it related to Fiona's case?"

Liang Xi nodded.

Karin asked, "You think Fiona kills?"

Liang Xi took the email and said, "Here is the answer."

Karin said, "You don't want to take it apart."

"Not really."

Karin said: "You have an idea in your heart. If you don't take it apart, it's just an idea. After you take it apart, it becomes a fact."

Liang Xi smiled and reached out to touch Karin's face: "You know me best."

Karin leaned her face on Liang Xi's palm: "Why?"

"what why?"

"Why should you worry about the truth? So what if you think Fiona is the murderer?"

What Liang Xi was worried about was not Fiona, but Phil.Liang Xi withdrew his hand and pondered for a moment: "I want to have a private chat with Fiona."

Karin looked at Liang Xi: "Afraid that I will be jealous?"

Liang Xi was stunned: "No, no." He forgot that he had a relationship with Fiona.

Karin was puzzled that Liang Xi was not in the right state, so she asked a few questions, but Liang Xi was still unwilling to explain directly.This situation is relatively rare.Whenever it appeared, it meant that Liang Xi didn't want to explain it to himself.

Karin smiled and said, "I allow you to make out again, and promise not to get angry."

"Stop messing around, this is a serious novel... Karin, if something happens to me, you give this number to Romeo." Liang Xi opened the phone notepad and showed the number to Karin.

Karin froze on the spot, looked down at her phone, wiped away her tears with her fingers, raised her head and smiled, "Well, I made a note of it."

"Good girl, I'm leaving." Liang Xi kissed Karin on the forehead, stood up and stuffed the mail into the briefcase she never took. Karin didn't know what to say, and sent Liang Xi all the way to the elevator, hugging for a long time Only then did he let go of Liang Xi, and watched the elevator doors close, Liang Xi's last smile remained in his mind.

In many firefights and conflicts, Liang Xi always hid in places where missiles could not reach him. A person with this personality obviously made a lot of determination to take a risk to do something.Karin couldn't stop him, and she didn't want to know what Liang Xi was doing, because Liang Xi didn't want her to know.Her worry came not only from what Liang Xi said when she gave her number if something happened to her, but also from Liang Xi's stunned attitude when she told Liang Xi that you could revisit the old relationship with Fiona.It shows that Liang Xi doesn't care about Fiona at all, but cares about this matter.

……

"Beauty, I opened a room to clean up and waited for you in vain."

"Now?" Fiona didn't know what to say when she received the Liuliuqi call. In the early years, she used to tease Liang Xi by herself.

Liang Xi said: "Jiufan Hotel 305, see you soon."

After hanging up the phone, Liang Xi lay on the bed, turned on the TV, and put the briefcase with the mail aside. The sealant on it showed that Liang Xi had not opened the mail yet.

About half an hour later, Liang Xi answered the phone: "Hi."

Liu Zhen: "She entered the hotel alone and did not find any suspicious persons or vehicles around."

Liang Xi said: "Thank you, sister, you can withdraw."

Liu Zhen: "What's the matter? Are you sure it's okay?"

Liang Xi said: "It's okay, it's okay. Leave."

"Okay, be careful yourself."

Liang Xi hung up the phone and waited for a while for the doorbell to ring.Liang Xi opened the door, seeing that Fiona was not dressed emotionally, he stepped aside dissatisfied and said, "You dress like this, making it difficult for me to take revenge on Karin."

"Revenge on Karin?" Fiona entered the door suspiciously.

Liang Xi closed the door: "She even forgot to remind me to keep exercising."

Fiona walked through the hallway and entered the living room and bedroom, and instantly understood what Liang Xi wanted to do.This place has been arranged as the scene of Xiaoqing's death.There is wine on the bedside table, there are glasses, and there is an ashtray, although it is a small ashtray.

"What do you mean?"

Liang Xi walked past Fiona and walked to the place where Xiaoqing died: "I have always wondered why Xiaoqing died in this place if it wasn't an accident."

"It was an accident."

"Accident? It can indeed be explained by an accident." Liang Xi said: "But I prefer to explain it by murder. Without considering the accident, why did Xiao Qing die in this position? What can she do in this position? How could she be in this position?" How about staying in this position? How could she turn her back to you?"

Liang Xi said: "I went back and forth to look at the photos of the scene, and I found that my judgment that someone was sitting on bed B was wrong. It was not someone sitting on it, but someone putting a laptop on it. This explains the small The reason why Qing died in this position. Xiaoqing half squatted, or kneeled on one knee, or sat on the carpet to operate a laptop. Judging from the scene, I think Xiaoqing was standing and bending over."

Liang Xi motioned for Fiona to sit down, and went to the refrigerator to get some water: "The point is that Xiaoqing is not looking at her laptop, but yours. I guess, you have already begun to suspect that there have been many secret leaks in the blade before. Xiaoqing who spent the night with you. But Xiaoqing vehemently denies it. Let’s take Blood Dawn as an example. The fungus knows part of the plan, mi6 knows part of the plan, and the blade knows part of the plan. There is only one department where there is a ghost, and the gangsters cannot accurately attack the police convoy. .”

Fiona looked calm, Liang Xi gave Fiona the water, and continued: "Have you noticed it yourself? After many incidents, your mood has become very depressed. Especially in the A4 paper incident, the gangsters blatantly attacked the blade. A few days after the agent incident, you were in a very bad mood. Did you find out that your computer had been tampered with?"

Fiona said: "Strictly speaking, if you only monitor the computer instead of controlling the computer, it is difficult to find out unless you carry out targeted data analysis."

Liang Xi said: "You didn't find out before, but you found out after the accident. And there are not many people who can plant a Trojan horse in your computer, so that you can't detect it. I believe it uses physical means rather than network technology."

"Hehe, there is progress." Fiona took out a cigarette and lit it.

Liang Xi: "Thank you for the compliment. I guess you took the opportunity to get drunk last night, just to find out if Xiao Qing paid attention to your computer. Reason: Under normal circumstances, Isa or the female detective will send you home instead of sending you home. Tell your father that you're drunk, trouble your busy father. Your father won't be happy to hear that you're drunk. I've got it confirmed, a female agent offered to drive you home, but you declined , let someone contact your father. You know that your father and his cronies are all in the northern suburbs, and only Xiaoqing is in London."

Liang Xi: "Let's skip the part after you and Xiaoqing arrived at the hotel. You fell asleep after drinking and tired, and Xiaoqing, who came out of the shower, tested you, took out your computer, and started... to start operating. "Liang Xi didn't know what word to use, he preferred to use toss.

Liang Xi said: "And you see everything in your eyes. As an emotional person, you find out that a person who swore not to betray you is betraying you. Under the influence of alcohol, you pick up the ashtray on the bedside table and smash it. On the back of Xiaoqing's head. After smashing it, you were shocked to find that Xiaoqing was dead."

This is the difference between sensibility and rationality. If it was Liang Xi, he would never get mad on the spot, and then find Xiao Qing to settle the ledger afterwards.Sensitive Fiona is different. On the one hand, she makes herself believe in Xiao Qing, but on the other hand, she has to doubt Xiao Qing. A move she regretted herself.

Typical murder of passion.

Seeing Liang Xi waiting for her response, Fiona smiled lightly: "I smashed Xiao Qing to death with an ashtray? Aren't my hands full of ashes? The cigarette butts will be scattered everywhere."

Liang Xi said: "Technology can only prove that you smoked, but not when you smoked. You can smoke after killing Xiao Qing."

Fiona: "But the police report said I couldn't have committed the crime while intoxicated."

Liang Xi replied: "It's still the same answer. Technology can only prove your alcohol concentration at [-]:[-] in the morning, but not when you drank. You can definitely drink before calling the police."

Fiona smiled impressively: "You are very interesting, you mean I calculated such details? I handled a case perfectly when I drank a lot of alcohol. If so, then why did you say I attacked Xiao Qing because of impulse?"

Liang Xi: "Like many ordinary people, you only have a general idea and no actual plan. You thought of asking Xiaoqing to take you to the hotel, but you didn't think about the next development of the situation."

"Then why am I so organized?"

Liang Xi said: "Before explaining, I must first say the reason why I suspect you to be the murderer. The detection of 'pure water' on the soles of Xiao Qing's feet was something I did not expect. It happened to be a loophole deliberately arranged by you. Carpet does retain moisture, but the soles of the feet don't, at least not most likely, but the toe joints do."

Fiona said: "You are a layman. Even if a different drop of water dries up, the substance attached to the surface is different. Even if no water is found, it will take more time to check with both feet to show that the small The soles of Qing's feet stepped on ice cubes or ice water."

Liang Xi praised: "You are more professional than me."

Fiona was startled: "Isn't this common sense?"

Liang Xi was noncommittal, and continued: "You lie on the ground drinking, add ice cubes to the wine, a few ice cubes scattered on the carpet, and one of them caused Xiaoqing to slip and fall. Interestingly, there is no water stain where you lie down."

"I'm careful."

"I believe it, because I didn't even see the water stains on the ice bucket." Liang Xi explained: "Because of the temperature difference, water droplets will condense on the surface of the metal ice bucket, and if there are too many water droplets, it will flow down, but there is no ice bucket on the carpet." imprint."

Fiona replied: "I was holding the ice bucket because I was hot. Can you imagine how hot I was?"

Liang Xi was a little surprised in his heart, he couldn't see that Fiona felt any guilt.Assuming that Fiona didn't kill Xiaoqing, Fiona would be surprised by Liang Xi's question, would be angry, and would reprimand Liang Xi, so the probability of this assumption is very low.Assuming Fiona killed Xiao Qing, Fiona's original emotional character would make her feel guilty, but she didn't.It shows that it is not the first time that Fiona wants to kill Xiaoqing mentally.No, it was the person who wanted to kill the leaker. When it was confirmed that Xiaoqing was using the opportunity of sleeping with her to steal the secret, she completely lost her mind.

"It's also very hot now." Fiona took off her coat, brushed her hair, leaned halfway on the chair, and looked at Liang Xi affectionately.
