"Mr. Lin, a total of 33 employees live in this building, except those who ask for leave. There are 27 people. Today, there is just a patriotic education party. They are all playing upstairs." Liu Aizhong smiled with her.

"Twenty seven people are upstairs?" Lin Xiao asked in a deep voice.

Liu Aizhong pointed to two security guards and said with a smile: "almost, two security guards are on duty downstairs, and the remaining 25 people are upstairs."

Lin Xiao swept the roster around, nodded slowly and said in a deep voice, "well, manager Liu, lock the building. Please keep two security brothers. No one is allowed to go in and out. Gather others in the top banquet hall. I think nine out of ten killers are one of your employees."

"What?" Liu Aizhong was stunned. "Are there killers in my employees? Mr. Lin, you're not kidding. They are all their own workers. We've worked together for several years. How can they be killers?"

Liu Aizhong knows a lot about the 33 employees, including their family background, personality and hobbies. It's like saying everything. He doesn't believe that there will be so-called killers among his men.

"It's too early to draw a conclusion now. Let's concentrate the personnel first!" Lin Xiao then walked through the crowd towards the stairs.

The staff looked at each other and suddenly felt a little nervous.

Are there killers among them?

Even if I don't believe in such things, I still feel gloomy when people say so.

Apart from the security guards, the other 25 people were all concentrated in the banquet hall on the top floor.

Two security guards have been expelled by Lin Xiao. At best, they are accomplices, but they are by no means the killer himself.

All Lin Xiao's attention was on the killer.

Men and women, old and young, were scattered in the hall, sitting or standing, all staring at Lin Xiao.

Everyone was full of doubts about the sudden appearance of the so-called plain clothes.

"Manager Liu, what's the situation? Who is he?" A handsome and fashionable young man stood up and looked at his cold and arrogant appearance.

Liu Aizhong quickly explained the whole thing to everyone.

When they learned that the police had come to check the whereabouts of some killer, they immediately blew the pot.

"Is he sick? We've been dancing and singing upstairs. Who's the killer?"

"It's just that he's sick. Is he here to make trouble? He's also a killer and makes a movie?"

"Probably dazzled!"

"If the killer dared to climb over the wall, he would have been killed by two bitdogs!"

Lin Xiao has been observing everyone's behavior and expression.

There were twenty men and seven women in the hall. Except for the fashionable young man, everyone else was wearing brand-new work clothes. They looked in good spirits.

While everyone was talking, Lin Xiao asked Liu AI, "manager Liu, are these all the people present today?"

"Yes, except for the two security guards downstairs, the other 25 people have been in the banquet hall and have never been out. We can testify to each other. There are absolutely no suspicious people." Liu Aizhong said firmly.

Lin Xiao frowned.

According to Liu Aizhong, the staff in the hall has not changed, so is it likely that the killer is not an on-the-job employee, but an employee asking for leave?

After the employee who asked for leave killed someone, he secretly jumped over the wall and jumped back to the unit without being aware of it.

Lin Xiao looked through the list of people asking for leave again.

There were six employees asking for leave. Lin Xiao immediately flashed three men and three women on the roster.

"Is there surveillance outside the ballroom?" Lin Xiao asked.

"Yes!" Liu Aizhong nodded quickly and pointed to the corridor behind Lin Xiao. "Look, it's right there. You can monitor the entrance and exit. Someone can record it. By the way, I can check the monitoring on my mobile phone -"

Liu Aizhong patted his head, took out his mobile phone and opened the video monitoring software. The monitoring system of the whole building can be accessed at will.

Lin Xiao looked at the surveillance at the entrance of the banquet hall. Within half an hour, there were no suspicious people in and out except a few people who went to the bathroom and returned quickly.

"Strange!" Lin Xiao said in his heart, "how did the killer disappear out of thin air?"

Liu Aizhong carefully accompanied Lin Xiao and said, "Mr. Lin, do you want to check every room?"

Lin Xiao handed back his mobile phone and said in a deep voice, "I'll check it myself."

"OK! I'll accompany you!"

After Liu Aizhong told everyone to stay in the banquet hall and never leave, he took Lin Xiao and searched the building floor by floor. Each room, including the utility room and toilet, was carefully checked.

an hour later.

All the rooms have been checked. With Lin Xiao's meticulous, if someone hides, they can't miss it.

Now even Lin Xiao was a little confused.

Clearly saw the killer over the wall and admitted to the hospital, but also determined that the killer entered the building, but he couldn't find any trace of the killer. It's hard to understand who he put on.

"Mr. Lin, have you made a mistake? Maybe it's a little dark today. You read it wrong?" Liu Aizhong ran around with him. He was already impatient, but he didn't dare to say it clearly, so he had to ask tentatively.

"Impossible!" Lin Xiao said angrily to him, turned to the elevator, "go, go back to the banquet hall!"

Liu Aizhong looked a little embarrassed and followed up with his head depressed.

Except for the banquet hall, all rooms were checked, there was no sign of Tibetans, and the killer really broke into the building.

There's only one possibility. The killer is mixed among 25 people.

To put it further, some of the 25 people must have left halfway, but no one noticed the detail.

You can find the killer only if you find evidence that someone left.

Although Lin Xiao has not yet understood how the killer made the golden cicada come out of the shell, he also knows that he met an expert today.

Returning to the banquet hall, Lin Xiao observed that everyone was in a low mood. No one could be happy if a good party was disturbed.

Seeing Lin Xiao coming back, the fashionable young man suddenly stood up and said sarcastically, "Hello, Mr. Holmes, have you found the killer?"

With a knowing smile, this' Sherlock Holmes' can be regarded as bringing the ridicule to the extreme.

After tossing about for more than an hour, I didn't even find the shadow of the killer. Lin Xiao's performance made everyone think he was a clown and a joke.

Lin Xiao glanced up at everyone in the banquet hall and recorded their characteristics one by one. He didn't pay attention to his ridicule of fashionable men.

"What's your name?" Lin Xiao sat lazily on the sofa and asked faintly.

With a sneer, the fashionable young man stretched out an arm to Lin Xiao and asked sarcastically, "Mr. Holmes, haven't you seen the roster? Can't you guess my name by looking at this arm with your eyesight?"

"Hehe -"

"Ha ha..."

His words caused a roaring laugh.

Lin Xiao smiled faintly at the corners of his mouth and said, "don't say it yet. Just look at your arm, I really know who you are."
