Chapter 1165 1165 [I'm too cruel, don't approach] Ask for a monthly ticket ヽ(〃〃)
Gentian Longde finished speaking seriously, and looked at the three high school students tearfully, waiting for them to call the police.
However, Mao Lilan and Yuan Shan and Ye, who seemed to be very talkative, just turned their heads and glanced at Jiang Xia, who had a firm expression. Then they turned their heads and touched their chins as if they were infected by a detective.
"But, in the end, this is just your speculation - you don't sound like you have any grudge against your neighbor, and you have a good relationship, so why did you burn his house? It wasn't bedtime when the fourth-chome was burned just now. Suddenly sleepwalking? And what about the second and third chome, you probably don’t know those people at all, right?”
“…”
Gentian Longde was stopped by their question, and after a while he hesitated: "Maybe I have developed from sleepwalking to a split personality, and it was my other personality who set fire to it..."
As he spoke, he was not so sure. Because after thinking about it carefully, when Mrs. Zhujiao's house was on fire this afternoon, he was conscious the whole time, and there didn't seem to be any interruptions in time, and he didn't remember how he set the fire at all.
Jiang Xia heard that he finally stopped fighting, and nodded with relief: "Have you read Agatha Christie's mystery novel?"
Xuantian Longde was startled and shook his head: "I'm usually too busy and rarely read novels."
"No wonder." Jiang Xia seemed to have expected his answer long ago, "Then I suggest you read more, so as not to be blamed by common methods-in her novels, there is a famous abc murder case, in which a supporting role and Your situation is similar.
"The murderer hides the target he really wants to kill among a series of people with similar characteristics, thereby obscuring the motive for the killing, and at the same time introducing a scapegoat like you.
"And the current situation is that in addition to you, there are three other important suspects in this serial arson case. It just so happens that one of them is a feng shui master, the other is a fortune-teller, and there is a psychiatrist... all of them can pass some kind of Either superstitious or scientific way, affects your actions.
"I think, instead of taking the blame for others, you might as well take the initiative and help us deceive the real murderer... Cough, help us make the real murderer realize our mistakes and correct them as soon as possible."
Said, Jiang Xia looked at the antique shop manager who insisted on handing out flyers from morning to night, and accurately guessed what he cared about:
"If the real culprit is you, you should turn yourself in. But think about it the other way around, if not, have you ever thought about the scale of coverage of this serial arson case that has attracted much media attention?
"Not all people who have seen the rumors can see the clarification in time, which means that there will always be some people in the future who think your store is a 'murderer's store' - you don't want your beloved store, Carry that stigma on your back."
"..." Genda Ryder was persuaded.
He really didn't want to damage the shop he worked so hard to run, and he didn't really want to be a deranged arsonist - otherwise he wouldn't have dragged on until the fourth arson case under the high suspicion that he was the murderer. Only after losing his life, did he plan to confess to "surrendering himself".
But……
Xuantian Longde raised his head, looked at the confident young detective opposite, and asked carefully, "What should I do?"
"After the arson case, haven't you been receiving mental treatment?" Jiang Xia thought for a while, and offered a friendly suggestion, "Although I don't think the murderer is you, it's just a conjecture after all, and it needs further confirmation— - It's better to tell your doctor about your doubts about your 'sleepwalking' and 'split personality', don't hide anything, so that he can give more professional advice.
"Besides, if possible, I want to go to your house tomorrow to look for possible clues. After I find it, I can make a bunk on the spot and stare at it all night to see if you will be 'sleepwalking' after falling asleep."
Gentian Longde nodded his head while listening at first.
Hearing the last sentence, he froze for a moment: "But, if I suddenly switch to a murderer's personality at night, it will be very dangerous for you to stay near me..."
"Xiaolan——!!"
There was a sudden shout from downstairs.
Gentian Longde was startled, and the rest of the words were interrupted.
He turned his head nervously to look at the entrance of the corridor, and saw a strange combination of a familiar police department, a black-skinned detective who looked like a high school student, and a primary school student, rushing upstairs.
…
The three new arrivals looked a little dignified at first.
However, after listening to what happened just now, especially that Genda Ryuji was planning to turn himself in, the two detectives quickly understood.
Chief Gong’s police department remembered something, looked at Longde Xuantian, and confirmed with satisfaction:
"So you appeared near Zhujiao's house before and after the fire, and looked flustered. In fact, it's not because you were stepping on the spot to commit crimes, but because you were busy recycling the Guan Yu keychain that had been sent out?"
"Yes." Gentian Longde sighed: "After the arson case, I was very scared, so I made an excuse to change the small gifts in the store from Guan Yu keychains to the common lucky cat.
"Who knew that when I was going to distribute gifts and brochures just now, a customer was more enthusiastic and opened the box in front of me. I just found out that the lucky cat inside... unexpectedly changed to riding Guan Yu of the Red Rabbit.
"I think I must be sick again. In order to prevent the demon in my heart from coming out to set fire to it, I can only recycle the customers who have accepted my gifts one by one, so..."
Jiang Xia nodded thoughtfully: "So in the afternoon, why did you suddenly go to Cuphu Town to distribute those small gifts?"
"Well, as you know, in our line of business, occasionally superstitious Feng Shui." Gentian Longde said embarrassedly:
"I know a very good feng shui master. He said that there is my auspicious position - anyway, I will send hair wherever I go, so I will go there first."
"Mr. Feng Shui?!"
Hattori Heiji and Conan looked at him in disbelief: "The feng shui Mr. you said, wouldn't call Soga a fucker."
——This is the guy who cuckolded the deceased's husband and went to the deceased's house to find the track tape.
"That's right." Xuantian Longde mentioned him with a hint of admiration in his tone, "You young people may look down on Feng Shui. But in fact, Feng Shui is also a complicated subject - Mr. Zeng I used to study medicine, and he also To be a high-status psychiatrist, but then he devoted himself to Feng Shui. Do you know what that means? This…”
"Means that he can not only control you with feng shui, but may also control you spiritually."
Hattori Heiji didn't like to hear these superstitions, so he couldn't help interrupting him, "Since there is already an investigation direction, let's go to the crime scene and Mr. Gentian's house first."
