The famous detective in the comic world

Chapter 275 The Problem

It is unlikely that the sixth man ran in the first half and turned to a fast walk as he approached the entrance.

Because the risk of being heard is still high.

Although it is still possible to do so in time, in He Nan's view, the possibility is too low and can almost be ruled out.There are far more suspect options than this.

Moreover, it is impossible to spread her legs and hide above the corridor like Shirley.

...because the top of the hallway here is too low.

Only about two and a half meters.

If this height wants to hide in this way without being discovered, it can only hope that Tom is blind.

From He Nan's point of view, he did not have this kind of disease.

"Okay, the experiment is over." He Nan reunited with Shirley, and turned to call Tom: "Come on, Tom! We should go up——In the meantime, let me tell you what the series of experiments just now represent. What."

"I was just going to ask you guys!" Tom hurried over, looking eager: "Don't be a secret, okay? Tell me what's going on!"

"Look at what your three friends told you." He Nan looked at the phone in his hand and reminded.

Hearing what he said, the client immediately turned on the phone and looked at it.

However, he browsed through the chat records from beginning to end, but he was still at a loss.

"What exactly is the problem?"

"You haven't found out yet?" He Nan began to question the conclusion he just came up with that "Tom's eyes are not blind". He gently shook his hand, selected a contact for a few operations, and slid the chat history to that content .

"Hey, after that, we heard something moving in the basement."

"So I told them, it would be interesting if a zombie came up instead of Tom! But Bess was not very happy after hearing it, and said don't make such a joke."

"Hey, of course, nothing special happened! That sound is just you pulling the switch to restore power."

And the person who said this is...

Miriam.

This conversation was recorded in He Nan's notes as follows.

"Later, they heard movement in the basement."

"She also joked that it would be funny if instead of Tom, a zombie came up later."

"But Bess didn't like it very much when he heard it, and said don't make such a joke."

"Of course, everything is normal."

"It looked like Tom was pulling the switch and turning the power back on."

There may be important clues hidden behind the conversation that seems to be bland and without any problems.

There will be no cases without clues.

...there just aren't enough of them.

"This..." Tom looked at it, and then realized: "Ah...! So Miriam is lying...she can't hear at all!"

"Yes. She may have shown her feet. But it is still possible that she just remembered wrongly." He Nan frowned again as he said this: "There is another problem. If there is a problem with Miriam, does it exist? Isn't it just the possibility that she has a ghost alone?"

"You mean, the three people present are all murderers...?"

"This is just a possibility. Since all three are suspects, it is not surprising that there are three murderers. This applies to the fourth possibility I mentioned...the three of them took advantage of the power outage to follow What did your wife say, but you can’t let you know about it.” He Nan said, reminding Tom: “It’s okay, Tom, you can think whatever you want, and bring up whatever comes to mind. If you really feel that the more you think, the more confused you are, leave it to We... the situation will become clearer."

"Hmm..." Tom took a deep breath, looking more and more worried.

"Let's go, let's go to the terrace." Seeing that he was so disturbed, He Nan stopped the current topic and took the lead.

Soon, they came to the second floor through the stairs in the living room.

During this time, Tom suddenly came up with a new idea.

"During the power outage, is it possible that the murderer was passing through the second floor? A part of the second floor can be seen from the lobby on the first floor..."

"You mean that the murderer needs the cover of darkness in order to pass there undetected." He Nan asked.

"Correct."

"No, it's unreasonable. The murderer can easily pass through." He Nan shook his head: "The four of you were playing Mario Kart at the time, right? The TV and sofa are on the west wall, and the second floor is exposed The location is on the north side. The five of you were playing games at the time, so you must have focused your eyes on the west, so it’s not easy to turn your head to look north, right? Even if you did, it’s unlikely that you would pay attention upstairs for no reason. The murderer quietly Just pass, why do you want to do a power outage?"

"Then..." Tom was at a loss for words for a while: "...how do you explain this? What can they say to my wife? They are all friends of me and Bess!"

"But don't you also suspect that these three 'good friends' killed her?" He Nan asked calmly.

"It's true..." Tom muttered: "At least there shouldn't be anything that I don't know, but those three people know... Then telling my wife can still make her so uneasy..."

"Not necessarily impossible." Shirley, who hadn't spoken for a long time, put her arms around her chest and reminded Tom softly: "You may not know them as well as you think... These people probably hide a certain past that you don't know about. Once Letting you know, it might change someone's life or a few people's life completely. After that, maybe you even turn against each other."

"Speaking of which, I want to ask you something, Tom." Ho Nan was silent for a moment, before asking: "How did Maggie and Miriam know you and Bess? How did you know Lorenzo?"

"Maggie and Miriam are classmates at Beth University... They have known each other for a long time, and after they established a relationship, they introduced them to me." Tom said: "And Lorenzo is my high school friend. We are old friends! But we are not classmates, we met when we were chatting together outside the school."

"That's it." He Nan nodded, and at the same time strongly complained about this behavior in his heart.

Although in the United States, grass is not considered an addictive drug, and hay grass in high school is not uncommon at all...but the part of his soul from the time traveler feels strongly uncomfortable about it.

He felt that this was taking addictive drugs, and taking this was equivalent to getting a stepping stone to other addictive drugs.This is absolutely untouchable.

"Does Bess have any good friends? It doesn't matter if he's male or female. It's best that he has a good relationship with Maggie and Miriam." He Nan tentatively asked: "Of course...if you have other emotional experiences, you can also please tell us."

"She doesn't have any other friends, and the others are casual contacts, and the relationship is not deep." Tom shook his head: "As for feelings, who hasn't been impulsive in college? I don't care about this. Young people always fail emotionally. time."
