"Let's do it again." Su Bai stood up and said to Diana, "Since he feels good about himself and adds extravagance, there is no reason for us not to seize this opportunity."

"Have you thought of the crux of the problem?" Diana looked at Su Bai and blinked. In the real world, Diana was a French criminal policeman, but just now, she felt a sense of past from Su Bai. The feeling of chasing a fugitive.

Killing by listeners is completely different from killing by ordinary people. Killing by listeners, to put it bluntly, is no different from killing animals. It is like killing chickens and sheep. Because the improvement of life level leads to changes in mentality, the listeners are killing people. At that time, I didn't feel that I was killing someone. I had no panic or fear. I had no worries, no worries about the law, and no care about retribution.

But when ordinary people kill people, they look forward and backward, and have various psychological changes.

Just like Su Bai who just conducted a psychological test on the murderer.

"Greeting people, replaying the dinner process at night, even if you can't remember some details, as long as you can roughly know who is sitting next to you, what kind of clothes they are wearing, etc.," Su Bai said. .

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Diana and Su Bai left the gym. There were six people sitting in the living room, looking very calm. They were all people who were used to seeing big winds and waves, and it was impossible for them to behave like ordinary cowering women crying in ordinary murder environments.

"You should know the exact time of death of the corpse when I ask you. I am a necromancer, so don't have any doubts about the time of death of my corpse. I am a professional.

Simon, the deceased, died around three o'clock in the afternoon. "

As soon as Diana said this, everyone present showed a look of surprise. There were no really stupid people here, so everyone immediately thought of the crux of the problem, which was that there seemed to be no one at dinner. I feel like there are few people.

After giving everyone present three minutes to think, Diana clapped her hands and said, "So I feel it is necessary to replay the scene at dinner."

After saying that, Diana looked at the old housekeeper, "Old housekeeper, can you tell me..."

"Sorry, I can't." The old butler smiled slightly. Obviously, as an outsider, the old butler was the one responsible for serving food and cleaning up when everyone was dining. Naturally, he could see more things that insiders couldn't see, but The old butler's meaning is very simple. Everyone just needs to treat him as if he does not exist. He will not be a witness or provide any information about the murderer.

This is a dedicated NPC.

"Okay then." Diana was not that disappointed. Apparently the old housekeeper's response was what she expected. She said directly: "Please repeat the process you used when you called us to have dinner tonight. For example, what did you do? No matter what dish comes, we have to go through the previous process, and the rest of us have to step into our own roles and start over."

"That's no problem." The old housekeeper agreed.

"Okay, now everyone, think back to where you were and what you were doing when the old butler called us to eat. Please go back to where you were at that time, pretend to do what you were doing, and try your best to reenact it. Recall some details at that time, such as what you saw the person opposite you doing, or what you saw the person next to you doing, try to interact with it, or remind you, okay, now you can prepare, wait for the old housekeeper to send a notice to start dinner. "

Diana clapped her hands, indicating that it was time to start.

Everyone left the living room one after another. Diana glanced at Su Bai meaningfully. She knew that this reenactment should be just a cover, and Su Bai should have other methods.

Diana, Lucy, Peake, Zhao Rui and Su Bai walked to the second floor together. At that time, they all said in their "confessions" that they were sleeping or reading in the room. Muntali He and Xu Gang went to the gym, while Chen Ming walked out of the entrance door and went outside to look at the scenery.

Su Bai opened the bedroom door, walked in, and waited.

"dinner time…………"

The old butler's hoarse yet penetrating voice sounded. Whether you were sleeping or listening to music with headphones, this voice could clearly hit your eardrums.

Su Bai's mind immediately pictured the scene where the owner knocked on the food bowl, and then a group of puppies immediately ran over and waited to eat.

After waiting for a while, Su Bai opened the door and saw Lucy standing next to his door.

"I remember you walking ahead of me when I went down there," Lucy explained.

Su Bai nodded, and then began to walk down. Obviously, everyone was in a state of mind, and even the subtle order could be distinguished by reminding each other.

Those in the bedroom, those in the gym, and those outside looking at the scenery all came to the dining room. There was a long white table in the dining room, similar to the table used by European nobles in the movie. Let alone 9 people dining, 20 people dining. You can sit down easily, and the meals are served one by one by the old butler for everyone to help themselves with the public tableware. It can also be regarded as a buffet style.

Because everyone was not familiar with each other at the beginning, when they sat down to eat, everyone consciously sat next to each other, which meant that there was an empty seat between them. Then in this specific atmosphere, they sat down for the first time. The position has become a fixed position for everyone during subsequent meals, which can be regarded as a tacit understanding.

Everyone pulled out their chairs and sat down. The old butler began to serve the food, and everyone also began to recall the details at the dinner table. One said what that person was eating at that time, one said that that person ate a lot of that, and another said that. The fork made a loud sound, and everyone reminisced together, verifying each other at the same time.

At this time, the seat of the deceased Simon was undoubtedly vacant. Sitting next to Simon were Lucy and Peake. For some reason, everyone could not recall Simon's behavior at the dinner table.

This is also normal, because Simon died before the dinner started, and he did not come to the table to eat at all, but everyone did not feel that someone was missing. Obviously one person played the role of two people. In this case, The sense of presence is naturally very low, and the murderer does not dare to make any sense of presence.

When the old housekeeper came over with an empty plate and said it was borscht, Lucy suddenly said: "I remember the person sitting next to me said something about leaving some borscht for me, the lady, and then the old man The butler said there were enough for all the dishes.”

When Lucy said this, she looked at Simon's position, and then looked at Pique further away.

Pique shook his head and said, "I never said that. In fact, I really don't like drinking that borscht at all."

The question appeared here, and everyone suddenly became quiet. It was obvious that in the mutual memories and confirmations, the repeated situation finally fell into a paradox at this time.

Someone in that position said to leave some borscht for Lucy, so that means the murderer left his position and sat in Simon's position.

"I remember when the borscht was served, some people had already finished eating and were ready to leave." Su Bai said.

Everyone sat down and started eating first, and they could leave when they felt they were done eating. There were no special restrictions.

Diana nodded and said, "Indeed, I didn't drink borscht, which means I might have left for the living room at that time."

"You can't say that." Chen Ming said, "The dining room is connected to the kitchen and the living room. Our dining table is facing the door of the living room. If you want to go back to the bedroom on the second floor, you must first enter the living room and then go upstairs. I think, At that time, no one would choose to go into the kitchen to help the old housekeeper wash the dishes, right?"

Chen Ming then made another gesture, drew a circle, and said, "Actually, it's very simple. The murderer only needs to show his and Simon's presence. No matter whether the murderer makes up and removes it quickly or even in Chinese Sichuan Opera. But his only route and the most suitable route should be at the beginning of the dinner and towards the end of the dinner. During these two times, people come and go, which is suitable for him to play the roles of two people, and for all of us Meals are very short and depend on where Simon sits at all times."

Xu Gang stood up, pointed at himself, then at Lucy next to him, then at Pique and Su Bai over there, and said, "Only the people sitting on our side have this opportunity. It is impossible for the person sitting across from you, after playing himself, to circle around, walk to the living room and then back, or walk to the kitchen and circle around, this will definitely attract attention!

Only when you are sitting on this side, with Simon, you can take advantage of the time when you come over to eat in your own place or Simon's current place, then get up, go to another character's place to continue eating, etc. When you come back after the meal, you can change your identity again to deepen your impression again. "

Having said this, Chen Ming pointed at himself, then at Lucy, followed by Pique and Su Bai,

"That is to say, the murderer is among the four of us. Oh, by the way, female detective, you have excluded Wang Yi, a Chinese. In other words, the murderer is most likely to be among the four of us, Chen Ming, Lucy And Pique among the three.

I can tell this logic and put myself among the suspects. If I are temporarily excluded, the murderers are Lucy and Peake. They are next to Simon's position, and it is very convenient for one person to play two roles. "

"Absurd, your logic and inference surprised me. Of course, I agree that what you said is very reasonable, but in my opinion, the murderer should be you, Lucy and Wang Yi, the three of you, sit down On this side, the murderer must be one of you.”

Lucy shook her head and glanced at Chen Ming, Pique and Su Bai in turn. Obviously, her view was that among the three people excluding herself, there must be a murderer.

"That's very clear. Now let's look for evidence." Su Bai stood up and nodded to Diana, who took out the iron powder bottle and a small brush.

"It's amazing that you can actually make something that collects fingerprints." Pique began to admire, "Let me think about going to the piano. By the way, the murderer's fingerprints may be left there."

While saying these words, Pique's eyes wandered around Lucy and Chen Ming with great interest. Obviously, when Su Bai asked Diana to take out the iron powder, he temporarily excluded Su Bai from the scope of the murderer. Except.

"Sorry." Su Bai shrugged and walked between Lucy and Peake, standing behind Simon's chair. "We are not sure whether we can get fingerprints on the piano, and everyone was not sure at the time. After checking the body and the piano, although the probability of leaving fingerprints on the switch port is not high, I feel that since the murderer was bored enough to play a superfluous game, the fingerprints on the piano should have been eliminated, and the murderer may even be Naturally, it is impossible to leave fingerprints during the murder process when wearing gloves."

"Then what do you think of this..." Pique looked at Su Bai in confusion, but suddenly stopped talking.

Su Bai looked at Piqué with a half-smile, and his finger was pointing at the chair where Simon was sitting.

This chair is still leaning against the table and has not been pulled out. In this state, it is impossible to sit on it and eat.

"There will be fingerprints of three people on this chair." Su Bai continued, "One belongs to the old housekeeper, because he tidies this place every day, pushing all our chairs in and placing them neatly, and the other of course It's Simon, and there's another one... who's the murderer.

The murderer can wear gloves when killing, but I don't believe that the murderer will also wear gloves when eating, otherwise it will be impossible for everyone to discover.

Moreover, fortunately Simon is a male. Mr. Peake, you wouldn’t take the initiative to pull out a chair for a man and invite him to sit down, as a gentlemanly act, right? Of course, Ms. Lucy would not do this. "
