The lone wolf of Freyrdrand

: Solve the case

“Wei!” Caitlin pushed open the bathroom door.

“Huh?” Wei was soaking comfortably in the bathtub, and the bathtub was full of bubbles covering her body. When she saw Caitlin rushing into the bathroom, Wei raised her hand, “Damn, why are you here I barged in while you were taking a shower, and if I entered your bathroom while you were taking a shower, you would throw me with a soap stool?”

“You are a bathtub. I can’t see your body. I took a shower last time.”

“Is there a difference? You are too fussy, we are both women.” Wei didn’t understand, “Look at each other’s bodies, so we won’t lose a piece of meat.”

“You still have the self-consciousness of being a woman?” Caitlin rolled her eyes at Chong Wei, “And it has nothing to do with gender, it’s an etiquette to respect others.”

“You pimps are hypocritical.” Wei yawned.

“Get down to business.” Caitlin sat down by the bathtub and said, “I found the murder weapon.”

Wei’s lazy gaze suddenly became energetic: “Where is it?”

“It has disappeared.” Caitlin said, “The murder weapon is something that will disappear soon.”

Wei quickly reacted: “Ice! There is an ice machine on board!”

“That’s right.” Caitlin snapped her fingers, “The murder weapon was a sharp weapon made of ice.”

“But it’s not right.” Wei asked, “Why does it have to be ice? We are at sea, so we can just use any murder weapon and throw it into the sea?”

“I went to check the wound of the deceased again.” Kaitlyn explained, “Look at what this is.”

Vi saw something in Caitlin’s hand, which was a small blood-stained spike.

“This is…a needle?” Wei was not sure.

“It’s a fishbone.” Kaitlyn laughed, “This is the evidence.He took a piece of ice, but he didn’t notice that there was a fish bone frozen in the refrigerator that had not been thrown away. ”

“The murderer is someone who can get close to the ice machine!” Wei clapped his hands and laughed.

“Don’t worry yet, I need you to check the ice maker and refrigerator.” Caitlin said, “General ice machines and refrigerators cannot freeze an ice blade capable of killing people.”

“I remembered that an experiment at Piltover University has recently yielded results.” Wei said, “I read it in an engineer magazine, it seems that an old man professor took something from an extremely cold place in the north and called it something. something ice.”

“Zhen Bing?” Caitlin said, “I’ve also heard about it. I heard that it is an energy source comparable to the Hex Crystal.”

“I’ll go check it out.” Wei climbed out of the bathtub directly.

“Wei! I’m still here!” Kaitlyn hurriedly covered her eyes.

“I’m not a monster. Why are you covering your eyes?” Wei put on her swimsuit speechlessly, and then she and Caitlin came to the ice machine on the boat.

Wei fiddled with it for a while, opened the energy core of the ice machine, and saw what was inside.

It was a very large glass container, but there was only a small ice cube the size of a sesame seed floating inside.

“Sure enough, this thing is a Zhenbing machine!” Wei carefully took out the glassware, and immediately put it on the ground, covering her stomach with both hands, “Wow! It’s really cold hands! It’s so cold when you touch it through the glass. It seems true that Zhenbing will die if touched.”

“Now the murder weapon can be identified.” Caitlin smiled, “Finally, some progress has been made.”

But Wei had a new question: “Why did the murderer have to use ice? This is the sea.”

“Maybe it’s a matter of distance?” Caitlin speculated, “If the murder weapon is thrown into the sea, there will be a long distance from the captain’s cabin to the ship’s side after the murder, and there will be a sound when thrown into the sea, which may be heard by us. If you use ice, you can just throw the murder weapon on the spot and wait for it to melt.”

“But when the captain screamed, we rushed to the scene immediately. Even if the murder weapon was an ice skate, it wouldn’t be able to melt so quickly, right?”

“This is what I still don’t understand.” Caitlin looked at the fishbone in her hand. “The murder weapon is undoubtedly ice, but why did you choose ice, and how did the ice melt so quickly?”

Wei carefully put the glassware containing Zhenbing aside: “Anyway, I finally have some clues. I’ll go and interrogate the sailors to see if they still have anything to hide.”

“Not allowed [resource; source’ group]: 9? 8; 0; 2?. 0′. 5,, 8″5. ;6 violent interrogation. ” Caitlin reminded.

“Got it.” Wei said and left, leaving Caitlin alone to look at the glass vessel containing Zhenbing and think.

“The murder weapon has been found, and now the motive and method of committing the crime remain…” Caitlin thought to herself.

What puzzled her most was the motive.

They obviously received a mission from the Philos family to pick up the private criminal named Logic from the boat, but they encountered a murder.

Caitlin was basically sure that the murderer was logic. Logic wanted to test itself, but killed an innocent person.

But Caitlin had searched all over the ship, and apart from her, Wei, and the group of sailors, there was no trace of anyone else.

Most likely, the logic is hidden among those sailors, but there is currently no way to tell.

Caitlin thought about it, and unconsciously returned to the scene of the crime.

The corpse, the blood stains, and the tidy room, everything was reflected in Caitlin’s eyes, and all the elements of the crime were recalled and sorted out in Caitlin’s mind.

Caitlin squatted down, there was no trace of water on the ground except for the blood that had solidified.

Caitlin clearly remembered when the crime happened, and there was no trace of water on the ground when she rushed over. She believed in her memory, and it was absolutely impossible for her to remember wrongly.

“The murder weapon is ice… The sun is very big… It will indeed melt quickly, but it can’t be that fast… I heard the screams and arrived here in less than half a minute. It is impossible to melt in such a short time. Not a trace of water left…” Kaitlyn was bewildered.

She settled down and stopped being obsessed with the murder weapon. Her rich experience in handling cases taught her that it is easy to get into a dead end if you are too obsessed with one aspect when solving a case. At this time, it is easier to get a breakthrough by thinking about other things.

Caitlin looked at the dead expression of the young captain. Caitlin had seen that hideous and painful look at the scene of many murders.

Caitlin looked around the room: “There are no traces of fierce fighting in the room, which means that the murderer did it without the captain being unsuspecting. If the captain wasn’t attacked by surprise, then the person who approached him should be someone he knows.”

Caitlin looked at the blood stains on the wall: “Blood splattered all over the walls… After all, it was an extremely fast dismemberment… The murderer should have been stained with blood when he killed… But the sailors didn’t have blood on their upper bodies… …”

Caitlin suddenly opened her eyes wide.

She thought of a possibility.

A possibility that I don’t want to believe.

…

“Fuck, those cowards can only cry and beg for mercy, and can’t get anything useful.” Wei sat opposite Caitlin cursingly, “Is there any progress on your side?”

“Yes.” Kaitlyn whispered, “Although there is no evidence, I probably deduced the modus operandi.”

“Oh?” Wei’s eyes lit up, “Say it quickly.”

“The murderer killed the captain very quickly.” Caitlin said, “There are no signs of fighting in the room, the murdererIt should be someone the captain knew who was able to approach him when he was unsuspecting. ”

“Is it really the guy in the water?” Wei gritted his teeth.

Caitlin did not return to Wei, but continued: “The murderer moved very quickly, dismembering and killing the captain almost instantly, leaving the captain with no chance of resistance or escape, and using a knife made of ice. It was melted when it arrived.”

“We went so fast, the ice shouldn’t have enough time to melt.”

“No, it’s enough.” Caitlin said, “Because the captain actually died a long time ago.”

Wei frowned: “What do you mean?”

“We fell into a misunderstanding, thinking that the scream was actually made by the captain. But in fact, because the scream was too hoarse and shrill, we couldn’t recognize that it was the voice of the captain himself.”

“You mean that voice was faked by the murderer? Why did he do that?”

“In order to create an alibi.” Caitlin said, “you only need to scream in the direction of the captain’s cabin, and you can attract the entire ship. If you arrive in full view, you can push yourself out of the murderer Range. The reason why ice is used as a weapon is because it can be boarded without arousing anyone’s suspicion. There is no murder weapon itself, and there is nothing missing on the ship that can be used as a murder weapon. All suspicions cleared.”

Wei pondered.

“Also, the murderer’s method of killing is too cruel, there must be a lot of blood on his body.” Caitlin added, “And the murderer has a favorable situation to get rid of the blood on his body.”

Wei was silent.

“The murderer is you.” Caitlin said, “Wei.”

Seeing that Wei didn’t speak, Caitlin continued: “You left the ship in the name of swimming, then sneaked back to the ship while the captain was alone, and took a piece of ice from the refrigerator. With your ability, you can easily Turning a piece of ice into a deadly weapon can also easily make him die without making a sound. After you kill him, go back to the sea and wash off all the blood on his body. After the time is almost up, go back to the boat After a scream, I returned to the sea, jumped on the boat in front of my eyes, and pretended to be swimming just now. Since I can’t contact the police station on the boat, I can’t use professional equipment to determine the time of the captain’s death. You just need to drag A period of time can make the captain’s body to the point where it is impossible to discern the exact time of death, so you hide his fingers to prevent the engine from starting. You take the initiative to go to the engine room and then the bathroom, also in order to thoroughly smell the engine oil and soap. Wash off the blood from your body. That’s all, Vi, do you admit it?”

“There is really no problem, Xiao Kai.” Wei spread his hands, “But there are still a few questions, the motive? Why did I kill the captain? I met him for the first time today.”

“I don’t know your motive.” Caitlin shouted, “But you have to go back to the police station with me and be detained for investigation.”

“Ha! Stop joking, Xiao Kai!” Wei slapped the table vigorously, “I’ve been your partner for so long! You actually doubt me!”

“Of course I always believed you, but right now, you are indeed suspected.” Caitlin said.

“Little Kai, you…” Wei reached out and was about to grab Caitlin.

“Don’t move!” Kaitlyn pulled out the pistol hidden behind her and pointed it at [resources’ group]: 9? 8; 0; 2? . 0′. 5,,8″5.;6 Wei’s head, “No [resource; source’ group]: 9? 8; 0; 2? . 0′. 5,,8 “5.; 6 close to me!”

Wei had a look of disbelief: “Xiao Kai, you actually…pointed a gun at me…”

Caitlin was breathing heavily, obviously trying to suppress her emotions, she gritted her teeth and said, “Be honest with me, go back and accept the investigation obediently, if you are innocent, I will apologize to you, no matter how you want me to make it up Row.”

Wei was silent for a long time, then shrugged helplessly: “Well, I admit, I killed people.”

Wei’s words hit Caitlin like a heavy fist. She exhausted all her strength to keep herself from trembling, and asked with difficulty, “Why… what?”

“Why? If you see him unhappy, kill him.” Wei grinned grimly. The Wei in front of her was completely different from the bright and sunny sister in Caitlin’s memory. There is no reason to kill.”

“what?”

“Actually, it’s too late for you to find out. In fact, during the time we were partners, many murders were actually committed by me, but I successfully blamed other people. You foolishly thought that you solved the case. You You don’t really think you’re a genius detective, do you?” Wei laughed.

Caitlin couldn’t believe what she heard, she finally trembled uncontrollably.

Wei squeezed her finger bones: “Xiao Kai, Xiao Kai, how about letting me go this time? I like you very much, and I don’t want to die with you.”

Caitlin said angrily: “Don’t even think about it…you are no longer the Wei I know…”

“Really…” Wei shrugged, and then rushed towards Caitlin.

boom!

Gunshots rang out.
