People died here in the French Concession, and Li Guolou was a Qing policeman, so he couldn't investigate the case here. The two have nothing to do with each other. Li Guolou didn't go to see the dead body of the policeman.He walked into the bathroom and wanted to see the first scene of the crime. Whether it was an accident or not depends on whether this is a secret room or not?

Rose turned her head and said angrily, "Mike, what are you doing?"

Yelia said, "Rose, let him go. Mike is a detective from the Qing Dynasty. He likes to watch crime scenes."

Rose still stood up, wanting to stop Li Guolou and prevent her lover from soiling her room, she yelled: "This is my home, you all get out of here."

When Grant, the lobby manager, walked to the door, he froze for a moment. He didn't know where to put his foot.

Yelia didn't buy into Rose's account, sniffed, and said with a sneer, "Rose, this should be Xueli; Yusuf's house, you are just her friend."

Rose bared her teeth and claws furiously, and said, "I am Xueli; the heir to Yusuf's estate, not a whore that everyone brings home."

Rose was scolding Yelia for bringing wild men home for the night, and she couldn't let unrelated people watch the bathroom.

Rose's words made Yelia so angry that Yelia kept staring at Rose, waiting for the police to bring him, and poured all the dirty water on Rose.

"Oh!" Rose said something wrong, and everyone turned their suspicions on her. A male neighbor outside the door said, "I heard you guys had a fight yesterday!"

The meaning of a sentence makes people think about it. A male neighbor wanted to come in to see the dead body, but was stopped by the lobby manager Grant.Another female neighbor was booing nonsense at the door, talking about the separation and reunion of Rose and Xueli, and still sighing, why would Xueli want to die?The two were wearing the same style of pajamas, so they looked like couples or mistresses sleeping together.

There was no vent hole on the bathroom door, and the door was locked with a bolt. The bolt was bent by Li Guolou's impact, and the screws on the iron bolt were broken by force.Li Guolou tried to open and close the door several times in the bathroom, but there was no leak here, and the door was locked from the inside with a latch.

There is ducted heating in the bathroom, the valve is still open, and the steam in the room is wafting out the door, which is more visible than when I came in.The toilet and bathroom are connected, and there is no door in between.The floor was covered with non-slip floor tiles, an oil lamp was hung on the wall, and a long pajamas of the deceased was hung on a hanger, without underwear.The steam pipe in the corner hissed, and hot air gushed out of the valve.The 1.5-meter-long and [-]-centimeter-wide ornate bathtub was full of water, and the turbid bath water told Li Guolou that a life had been extinguished here.

There is also a shelf within reach of the bathtub, on which is placed a burning foreign candle, with a broad body thicker than an arm, dripping with wax, as if weeping for its owner.Li Guolou raised his head and looked at a high air outlet window, which was tightly closed.Li Guolou reached out to touch the dust on the window sill, and only touched water droplets.

Li Guolou walked into the living room quickly, handed the black leather bag slanted to Yelia, and said, "Give me the slanted bag!"

There was a promissory note of 15 francs in the bag. Although it could be reissued if it was lost, it was a lot of trouble.Li Guolou ordered Yelia not to look good, but to make men's leather bags with cross-body ugly.

Yelia hesitated for a while and put the black leather bag on her back, and said in a loud voice, "Rose, please wait for the coroner to come. I can't do anything now!"

Yelia spoke so loudly that everyone at the door could hear it, and it was no joke that people's lives were at stake.

Li Guolou moved a reclining chair into the bathroom in the living room, and stepped on the chair to look at the exhaust window.The narrow and narrow exhaust window is covered with water mist, and the latch on the upper edge is not locked. When Li Guolou pushed the exhaust window open, a gust of cold wind rushed in. The window is like dividing the space into two. Getting out of here is difficult, at least not for adults.Li Guolou immediately thought of the young Wright who drove the escalator; Huang, that thin face came into Li Guolou's mind. There are only drops of water, it's too clean, who would clean the exhaust windows that are higher than people's heads?Li Guolou expected it to be murder, not Xueli; Yousufu slipped or suffered a heart attack and was drowned.

The deceased, Xueli; Yousuf was a head taller than Rose, and was also bigger, at 1.7 meters 1.6, he looked like a thick-skinned person.Rose Joan is about the same height as Yelia, [-] meters [-], with a plump figure, she looks like a female fairy who likes to have sex.

Li Guolou was sitting on the single sofa, peeking at Rose who was crying on the three-seater sofa, Yelia didn't care about Rose scolding her just now, and turned into a best friend again, sitting beside Rose kindly and persuading Rose , let Rose not be too sad, and let her condolences change.

The lobby manager, Grant, ran in and said a few words to the crowd, meaning that the police were coming soon, and told them not to disturb the scene.

Rose turned her head and pointed at Li Guolou, and said angrily, "Grant, this man from the Qing Dynasty messed around with the scene and even moved the chairs around."

Grant said with a bitter face, "Miss Rose, this is a police officer from the Qing Dynasty. He also has experience in handling cases. Don't make a fuss. Didn't the chair come out?"

Li Guolou defended himself, and told the story of what happened just now with the lobby manager Grant, and Yelia also interrupted to tell the story.

About an hour later, the coroner, the inspector, and four constables arrived.Coroner Yusufa immediately performed an autopsy at the scene.

Vasizzo was in his thirties, with a moustache, and a tall hat favored by French detectives, with a deep crease deliberately pressed in the middle of the hat.Li Guolou shook hands with Vasizuo enthusiastically, and under the translation of Yelia, told Vasizuo that he is also a detective at the inspector level and hopes to learn from his French counterparts.

Vasizuo knew Yelia, so he passed it vaguely. Half of his patrols were from the Qing Dynasty. He knew how the Qing people handled the case very well.

Inspector Vasizuo went to the scene of the crime first, listened to Rose and the others tell what happened, and went in with a chair to look at the exhaust window.The action of pushing open the exhaust window was exactly the same as that of Li Guolou. Vasizuo took out a handkerchief to wipe the edge of the window, his face was unhappy, and he immediately became suspicious of Rose.

Vasizuo stood on a chair and faced Li Guolou, and said, "Mike, have you wiped the window sill?"

(Yeria was the interpreter after that.) Li Guolou nodded and said, "Detective Vasizuo, I just touched it with my palm, but the window lock is not locked, that's how it is." Vasizuo saw clearly that he did not disturb the scene of the crime.Another implication is that the murderer can climb out of the window, and both of them turned suspicious eyes on Rose; Joan.

Vasizuo stretched out his head and gestured at the edge of the window. With his head tilted, he could stick out of the window, but his body could not get out of the window. Vasizuo turned his head back without even trying.

Vasizo did not fish out anything of value in the water tank, only a piece of soap and a white towel.Coroner Yusuf did not return to the living room as he conducted an autopsy in another room.

Vasizuo asked several parties involved to sit in front of the sofa and take out a small notebook, and asked Rose to tell the story of the case first.He stood and listened to the client, and looked down at the person from a high perspective, which contained the meaning of interrogating the prisoner.

"Miss Rose, please tell me what happened before and after the incident?" Vasizo didn't believe that two homosexuals lived together, and the door would be locked when they took a shower. He was waiting for the preliminary autopsy results of coroner Yousufa.

Rose Joan held a handkerchief in her hand, wiped her tears at any time, and said with a sob: "I had dinner outside with Xueli, and we didn't return to Victoria's apartment until around [-]:[-]. She took a shower first, and I was alone in the living room." I read a book in the bathroom, and Xueli didn’t come out of the bathroom after waiting for a long time. I was in a hurry, ran out and knocked on the door, but the door couldn’t be opened, and then I ran out to call for someone.”

Jelia Wood interjected, "We came in just after one o'clock at nine."

Vasizuo nodded and ignored Yelia's rush to answer. He remembered the time of the incident and did not need Yelia to repeat it.Vasizuo didn't know what to write in the notebook, so he asked, "Have you smoked drugs in the snow?"

Rose Joan shook her head and said, "We don't smoke drugs, but she is a big smoker and likes to smoke Seven Star cigarettes. She also smokes in the shower."

Vasizuo sighed: "It's a pity that this time there is still half a cigarette in the snow and I went to see God."

The taste of teasing was all in the words, and Vasizuo identified Xueli as the murderer.

Vasizuo didn't look at Rose's angry expression, and said, "Xueli, have you had any injections during this time?"

Death by intravenous injection of poison is most likely, as long as the deceased Xueli; Yusuf has a needle hole in his body, it can be roughly concluded that the murderer is Rose.

Rose Joan had a very dissatisfied expression, suppressed her anger and shouted: "No! I only pinched her ass and bit her butt, you guys check it out yourself."

Yelia also translated this sentence, stared at Li Guolou without reservation, and then at Mayuko's unchanging expression.Li Guolou took a deep look at Rose; Joan immediately lowered her head, not daring to look at the faces of Yelia and Mayuko.

Vasizuo remained silent in embarrassment, looking at the coroner Yusufa who was standing aside.

The coroner, Yusufa, came to the center of the living room, with the rubber gloves still on, and said, "Inspector Vasizo, I preliminarily concluded that the deceased was drowned, and the accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity indicated that the deceased was alive." When I entered the water, there were no signs of struggle on my body, the bruises were the same as what Miss Rose said, and there was no sign of impact on the back of the head, and the nails of the deceased were intact. As for whether there were any needle holes on the body, I will go back and check."

Rose Joan snickered for a moment, which was caught by Li Guolou. He looked up at Detective Vasizuo, waiting for the French detective's decision.

Detective Vasizo glanced deeply at Si; Joan ordered: "Then take the body back and investigate again. The autopsy report will come out in three days. Miss Rose, just wait."

Detective Vasizuo confirmed that there must have been accidental scars on the body of the deceased, and he was going to prepare for a careful examination in the autopsy room and a toxicity test.

Seeing that the French police were about to withdraw, Li Guolou stood up in a hurry and said loudly: "Slow! Yeliya, ask coroner Yusufa to take a good look at the deceased's ankles to see if there are any bruises there. Hurt, tell him this is very, very important."

Yelia looked at Li Guolou's resolute expression, and said suspiciously: "Mike, I didn't see Xueli; Yousufu has bruises on both ankles."

Yelia was bold enough to check the dead man's snow just now; Yousuf also touched the back of the dead man's head to see if there was any trace of heavy impact, but found nothing, so he sat down on the couch and comforted himself. Rose, dead lover; Joan.

Li Guolou smiled slightly, and said: "Yelia didn't have it just now, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't have it now. The deceased died for two or three hours, and the bruises will appear, and they will disappear in a few days. It's still too late."

Yelia repeated Li Guolou's request loudly, Rose; Joan's face, which was originally a little angry, suddenly distorted, looking at Li Guolou's expression was full of horror.

Detective Vasizuo said anxiously: "Yousufa, go and see, Mark has something new."

Detectives can guess people's hearts by looking at people's expressions, and Vasizuo already knows that Mike Lee, his counterpart in the Qing Dynasty, has found the fatal loophole left by the murderer.
