Chapter 353

A glass of water poured over his face, and the drunk mcflynn just looked up confused, didn't even open his eyes, and didn't know what he was talking about.

How much wine did this guy drink!

Ann looked at the cold water and couldn't wake him up. She reached out and slapped him. There were three slaps in the face. This time mcflynn finally reacted. He opened his heavy eyelids:

"Who are you?"

Before ANN could answer, he said:

"Where am I? Who's hitting me?"

After saying the game player's three ultimate propositions, he closed his eyes and fell asleep again.

An Yizhi: "

I know that the goods can't wake up in a short time. Drinking like this can be regarded as alcoholism. Don't ask Ann how he knows. He drinks with Lin Linglin's father until hi. In the end, it's also a virtue

"Is there a doctor on board? Send him for gastric lavage. Remember to send more people to watch him. He is an important suspect."

The second mate looked at the captain and saw his immediate boss nodding. He followed Ann's arrangement and escorted mcflynn out.

Then, at this opportunity, an Yizhi quietly observed the second mate.

He is about 50 years old, almost the same as the captain, but the captain can obviously see that he is old, and the second mate obviously has regular exercise, strong physique and strong muscles under his clothes. It is estimated that he has practiced some fighting skills. And his height is almost 185cm, which is very close to the height of the gunman seen by Qingfeng bazuka.

He didn't dare to look more. He was afraid that the second officer would notice, but he was also noticed by the second officer after observing it quietly. An had an idea, quickly pretended to be calling him and said:

"Wait a minute"

The second pair of puzzled eyes shot at him. Ann ignored him, walked to mcflynn, reached out and pulled out a key with a house number from his pocket.

"Wait a minute, I want to go to his room and investigate. Maybe there are some clues and evidence."

His words are reasonable. Apart from Ann pointing out the untrustworthy captain of the second mate, no one has ever doubted the second mate, so they always think that the captured mcflynn is the most important suspect.

"Although you have power, you are not a policeman after all. You have no right to search. You need sailors to follow you during the search. Please forgive me."

The captain said that he still didn't believe an Yizhi doubted the second mate's view.

"He's not a cop, but I am."

Breeze bazuka came over. She opened her coat and exposed the police gun in the holster, mainly to show everyone the badge on the handle of the police gun.

The girl also knows how to be flexible. Of course, a suspended policeman doesn't have a police officer's card. The only thing that can prove his police identity is the two police guns.

——In other words, it's wonderful to be suspended without taking back the gun.

The captain nodded relieved, but he didn't give up his plan to follow the whole search process. He wanted to see if there was a problem with the second officer.

An Yizhi saw Tu Hongyu winking at him and turned to the captain and others:

"Can we talk alone? We have some issues on the merits that need to be discussed"

"Of course. I'm right outside the door. Please call me if you need anything."

The captain put on his hat and took the sailors out of the room.

"Look here, is there a thin translucent line on the trigger?"

Tu Hongyu came over with the gun held by the deceased when he "committed suicide". A translucent thread was indeed stuck in the crack of the trigger.

"Like a fishing line"

"Yes, I think so, but I haven't figured out what the killer did."

"I think I know about this. In addition, I have some ideas about the candidate of the killer, but I don't have any evidence on hand."

An Yizhi explained to his companions what he had said to the captain that the second officer had a problem.

"This man is very careful. He didn't kill directly twice, but chose to kill indirectly, so it's difficult to catch him directly."

Tu Hongyu said with a headache that even if the second mate was really the murderer, they had no evidence at all. They couldn't find conclusive evidence. Naturally, they couldn't complete the branch line task.

"There is no smoke reaction test in this era, otherwise we can find out who the gunman is as long as we do it again."

Smoke reaction refers to the test of shooting residue, because the gunpowder gas will be sprayed into the gunman's clothes and skin in an umbrella after shooting, so it is easy to judge whether a person has fired a gun.

The smoke reaction is a criminal investigation method that only appeared a long time later. Of course, there would be no such thing in the 1920s. However, the words of Qingfeng bazuka inspired an Yizhi.

There is no evidence, so what about fraud?

"It's hard to find direct evidence. We can find some indirect evidence first. First, we can determine the possibility that the second mate is the murderer. Besides, there are several things that need to be investigated. Let's act separately."

Ann whispered to the two, nodded after listening, and the three went out together.

"Mr. an Yizhi, have you worked out the result?"

The captain was really waiting at the door.

"Not at the moment. At present, mcflynn is the most suspected, but we need more evidence. My companions and I plan to act separately. I hope you can give us some convenience, Mr. captain, to get in and out of some passenger impassable cabins."

The captain thought:

"Yes, but a sailor must follow."

"No problem"

Even if the captain doesn't say an Yizhi, he plans to send several people to follow Tu Hongyu and Qingfeng bazuka. It's a tragedy if he finds any clues leading to the murderer jumping off the wall.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

The two companions inquired and searched according to Ann Yizhi's instructions, and Ann Yizhi himself came to mcflynn's room with the captain.

In both cases, the room of the deceased was close to mcflynn's and could not be reached in two steps.

In general, even if a homicide occurs, the captain should not follow everywhere. After all, such a large ship has a lot of things to deal with.

Of course, this is the requirement of an Yizhi. If the captain of a ship is unable to perform his duties, the first mate and the second mate will do the work of the captain, so as to avoid the second mate having the opportunity to destroy evidence or interfere with the search.

Mcflynn's room was arranged exactly the same as other first-class cabins. There was really nothing worth searching. Ann looked twice and focused on the suitcase in the corner of the room.

His suitcase was much larger than that of the deceased before. Under the surveillance of the captain, an Yi pointed to open the suitcase and took out the laundry and other sundries. He could see that there were several bottles of wine in his suitcase.

"Rum from 1875. He has good taste."

The captain is also a good drinker. It seems that people who live on the sea have no bad drinkers.

An Yizhi picked up the bottles of wine and took a look at the light. He didn't find anything worth paying attention to, so he put them aside and found a book at the bottom of the box.

It seems that this thing should be mcflynn's diary with his signature on it, although the signature is crooked.

"My dear Ma Wen told me that she doesn't like factory workers and gentle clerks, so I decided to learn more about this. Keeping a diary should be a good start."

With the same crooked handwriting, it can be seen that mcflynn is not a regular writer. This is the first article in the diary. An Yizhi did not guess wrong. He is not a rich man, but a worker. He just doesn't know why he can afford the first-class ticket.

It's not uncommon to change yourself in order to get a girl. Even an Yizhi did similar things in those years. At that time, he was still in junior high school and had some good feelings for a sister in the front seat. It happened that the teacher asked everyone to write an exchange diary, so an pointed to his inspiration. He couldn't write his composition at ordinary times. He wrote tens of thousands of words to express his thoughts secretly, and then

Then there was no more. Lin Linglin knew about it. The diary was badly divided into two parts. An was beaten by a finger. The budding love was transferred to Lin Linglin through this beating. Maybe he was awakened by the beating, and his physique might be terrible

Continue to look down. Most of the words written in the diary have no practical significance. Basically, they are a series of philosophical problems such as what to eat in the morning, what to eat in the evening and what to eat tomorrow. Occasionally, Ma Wen's attitude towards him is interspersed with this unpromising handwriting.

Until it was about to turn to the end, an Yizhi didn't see some dry goods.

"Hell, at this time again, how did time pass so fast? It's been 10 years. I don't know if I can return to my beloved Ma Wen alive."

This time again? When?

With this curiosity, Ann pointed down:

"God, it was father Locke who came to pick me up. Last time I saw him, he was so strong. Now he needs a crutch to walk reluctantly. It's unforgiving. But this trip back home is worth looking forward to. Dad said he got some tickets for the maiden voyage of the blue eyed princess. I don't know how much good wine there is on it. "

Daddy Locke?

Ann pointed to the old man who was killed in the first incident. Father Locke should be referring to him.

"I'm going to board the boat tomorrow. Dad took me to meet with other people who returned home together. Is that Marcus? God, what did he go through? I can hardly recognize him. He has become so thin now. I think drugs may have ruined him. "

This article refers to the second victim. An Yizhi turns down, and there is the second half of the diary:

"Although I probably won't be able to come back alive after returning home, it's only possible. And a friend who works on the ship told me where to find the good wine stored. I'll have a good drink. Maybe when I wake up, it's all over."

Friends working on board?

This paragraph is the end of the diary. An Yizhi puts it back and sometimes knocks his legs with his knuckles.

He was thinking. After a moment, he said to the captain who was enjoying mcflynn's wine:

"Mr. captain, I want to go to the scene of the first incident and have a look again."

"No problem, we've sealed it off and put the body in the medical room for the time being."

An Yizhi has a bad hunch that these sailors will not destroy the scene, will they?
