Chapter 426

"Turn left at the intersection ahead and take shell street!" Sitting in the co pilot's seat, Xiao Yao pulls the handle above the door with his right hand, holds the left hand of his mobile phone, and points out his index finger to the intersection ahead to direct Tim haggis.

"Are you sure?" Tim haggis turned to Xiao Yao and said, "you didn't even look at the map."

"I'm 100 percent sure." Xiao Yao nodded and said, "the light in the car is so dark, how can I see the map? But don't worry. I've written down all the routes. Just follow the route I said

"All right." Tim haggis chose to believe Xiao Yao's memory and turned the steering wheel to the left at the intersection.

"Tim, speed up and drive faster!" Xiao Yao took a look at the mobile phone screen with timing software on his left hand.

"It's speeding any faster." Tim returned.

Xiao Yao stretched out his left hand and pressed a button on the vehicle control panel between them. Immediately, red and blue lights flashed on the front of the car, and a sound of siren came from the horn. This is an agent's police car, which is also equipped with police lights and sirens. The only difference between an agent's police car and an ordinary police patrol car is that there is no mark on the car body, and the police lights are not on the roof, but on the front of the car. If they are not turned on, the car looks no different from an ordinary private car.

"So you don't have to worry about speeding." Xiao Yao said with a smile to Tim haggis, "we are the shortest test time. Of course, we have to do it at the fastest speed."

"It's against discipline to turn on the police lights and sirens at random." Tim haggis said helplessly.

"You can think we're investigating now." Xiao Yao helps Tim haggis get away.

Xiao Yao has a good memory and plans the best route. However, even though their car is driving with the alarm lights and sirens, it takes them an hour and 13 minutes to get to the gate of chambers Conservatory of music. Wyatt obviously could not have the convenience and speed of a police car, so his alibi was not broken by Xiao Yao's experiment.

"Now what?" Tim haggis parked his car at the gate of chambers Conservatory of music and looked at the time displayed on Xiaoyao's mobile phone. He said, "we can't prove that Wyatt can get back to school before 11 o'clock."

"If he does leave Linton at 10 p.m." Xiao Yao tapped his index finger on the screen of his mobile phone.

"What do you mean?" Tim haggis looked at Xiao Yao and said, "we've all seen the NYPD report. They went to the Linton restaurant to investigate. A waiter proved that Wyatt performed in the restaurant last night. His performance time was from 8:00 to 10:00 in the evening."

"When NYPD went to investigate, it was the waiter who gave them a statement because the boss was not in last night." Xiao Yao said, "since the boss is not here, will Wyatt leave ahead of time because he didn't play for two hours last night? Wyatt's playing time in the restaurant is always from 8 pm to 10 pm. If I was a waiter and saw the pianist leave, I would think it was time for him to play. I would not meddle in looking at the time to confirm whether he had enough time to play. Anyway, it's not me who pays the pianist and is too busy to greet the customers. How can I spare time to work as a pianist? "

"I see what you mean," Tim hesitated, "but this is a NYPD case after all. In fact, I don't have the right to investigate. It's OK to accompany you to analyze the case, or even do the driving test, but if you need to light the badge...

" I understand! I didn't have enough dinner at the law firm just now. I feel a little hungry now. I heard that the French desserts in Linton restaurant are good. I'll treat you! " Xiao Yao said with a smile.

"All right!" Tim restarted the car, turned the steering wheel and headed for the Linton restaurant.

Linton restaurant is a typical French restaurant. Its reputation in New York is only above average. When two people push the door into the restaurant, there are also some customers, but the number is not large.

As soon as they entered the door, a waiter came up to greet them. After asking them that there were only two of them, he enthusiastically led the way and arranged seats for them.

"Is there no pianist playing now?" After ordering the meal, Xiao Yao raised his hand and called a waiter. He looked at the stage with a black piano and asked.

"We only have pianists on Saturdays and Sundays from 8pm to 10pm. Today, Monday, there is no pianist playing The waiter replied with a smile.

"I'm sorry. It seems that we should have come last night." Xiao Yao laughed and continued to ask the waiter, "were you on duty last night? Did you hear the pianist last night? Can you tell me what the pianist was like last night? "

"Our pianist last night was a student in the Piano Department of chambers Conservatory of music. Of course, his level was excellent." The waiter said with a proud smile, "I was on duty last night. I enjoyed listening to him play for two hours."

Tim haggis gave Xiao Yao a helpless look.

"Sir seems to care about our pianist?" The waiter asked Xiao Yao with a suspicious look on his face."Well," Xiao Yao quickly found a reason and pointed to the piano. "I also play the piano. Don't know if you still need a pianist in your restaurant? Can I go up and have a try? "

"It's up to the boss to hire a pianist. He's not in tonight." The waiter shook his head in relief, and then said, "but if you just want to play, it's no problem. We welcome any customers who want to play on the stage."

"Well, I'll try." Xiao Yao stood up and said.

"This way, please!" The waiter immediately made a please sign to help him lead the way.

Walking to the stage where the piano was placed, Xiao Yao didn't rush to the stage. Instead, he strangely pointed to a scratch on the side of the piano and asked the waiter, "what's this?"

"It's OK," the waiter said with a smile. "This is yesterday afternoon when a customer passed by, he tripped and bumped into the piano. This is the ring she accidentally scratched when she stood up holding the piano. This one was there before, so please rest assured that we will not count this scratch on your head. "

"Well, I'm relieved to hear that." Xiao Yao nodded, went to the stage and sat down in front of the piano.

Opening the cover, Xiao Yao reaches out his hands and presses them on the keys of the piano. Xiao Yao didn't really want to play the piano here, so he didn't play any classical piano music in his previous life, so he chose a piano music which is more popular in the world.

Although Xiao Yao didn't play very attentively, after more than ten years of practice, Xiao Yao's level was placed there. The music sounds very good. Some customers in the restaurant politely gave some applause.

However, Xiao Yuan just played a short piece and frowned. Then Xiao Yao's music was interrupted. Xiao Yao leaned his head slightly, stretched out a finger with one hand and pressed it repeatedly on a key.

This time, the beautiful piano music became monotonous noise, and many customers showed dissatisfaction.

At this time, the waiter who led Xiao Yao to the performance platform also came over with an unhappy face, waved his hand to stop Xiao Yao and said, "Sir, what are you doing?"

"Yang, what's the matter with you?" Tim haggis has seen Xiao Yao play the guitar. It's no surprise that he can play the piano, but playing the piano well suddenly turns into making trouble on purpose? So Tim haggis left his seat and came over.

Xiao Yao stopped, got up from the piano stool, went to the waiter, looked at his chest tag first, then looked into his eyes and said, "willin, are you sure you saw Wyatt here last night, playing on this piano for two hours?"

"How do you know the pianist's name was Wyatt last night?" The waiter with the name on the badge looked at Xiao Yao in surprise and said, "who are you?"

"I told you that I also play the piano," Xiao Yao said, "so I can tell you for sure that one of the keys on this piano is at least one full tone off. If you're right, it should be the customer who fell down yesterday afternoon and hit the piano. Wyatt is a professional pianist in the Piano Department of chambers Conservatory of music. He can't hear such obvious problems, and he can't play such a piano for two hours. When the police came to investigate today, you lied to the police. Wyatt didn't touch the piano at all last night, did he? "

"Are you a policeman? Why should I tell you? " The wailing waiter showed some confusion on his face, but he insisted.

Xiao Yao directly pulled up the right side of Tim haggis's suit coat, showed the police badge and gun on his waist and said, "I'm not a policeman, but this is an FBI agent. Do you want to tell the truth in the FBI interrogation room?"

Willing was still silent, but his face was getting red.

"Although the surveillance camera in your shop is not facing the performance stage, I think it's not difficult to find some car owners who came into your shop last night through the traffic camera outside. I think some of them must remember whether there was a pianist performance last night." Now that Tim haggis had been dragged down by Xiao Yao, he saw that there was something wrong with the waiter, so he gave up at the moment and even coaxed and frightened Wailin, "I tell you, Wyatt is involved in a murder case. If you insist on what you said about NYPD before and finally confirm that Wyatt is the murderer, you will be regarded as a murder case "I'm not your accomplice."

"Murder?" "The detective who came here today didn't tell me that Wyatt was a suspect in the murder. If he kills someone, it has nothing to do with me. "

"Come with me," Tim haggis said, taking willin by the arm and taking him to a corner, "so you can tell us the truth now?"

"Yes," said willing, "Wyatt did come to the restaurant last night to play the piano. But he took a phone call and left before the show. What he told me before he left was that his girlfriend had an accident and he had to rush to check it. Yesterday, the boss was away. He didn't want to be known by the boss that he had lost his job. So he gave us a couple of waiters $100 to let us tell the boss that he performed here last night. Later, when the police came to investigate, the boss was also in the store. I didn't want to lose my job, so I could only tell the police that Wyatt performed here for two hours as usual last night. ""OK," said Xiao Yao, putting away his mobile phone in his hand, "I have recorded what you said just now. It's very late now. It's estimated that the detective in charge is off duty. Well, tomorrow morning, you'll come with us to the ninth Bureau and find detective Mayer to change his statement. " Detective Meier is the middle-aged detective who went to arrest sun Tingting at that time. Xiao Yao already knows his name from the information brought back by Veronica, a female lawyer.

"This..." welling hesitated.

"It's murder. You don't want to keep that lie." Tim haggis said, "you take the initiative to confess, I promise the police will not pursue you before giving false statements."

"Well, I'll go." After thinking for a while, willin finally nodded and said, "I live in an apartment at 5C, 750 Oakland street. I'm waiting for you." Willin left his phone to Tim again, and then turned to leave.

"Now it's proved that Wyatt's alibi is false. We'll go to detective Mayer tomorrow and ask him to start an investigation into Wyatt." Xiao Yao was relieved and said to Tim haggis with a smile, "Tim, thank you. Now we can enjoy the delicious food with peace of mind. What we said before, I'll treat you! "
