Chapter 18 Section 17

Luo Wen first looked at Zhu Huiru and said, "Where did you get that fruit knife?" "The shop...in the shop." After thinking back to tonight's incident, Zhu Huiru inevitably panicked again. Luo Wen said calmly: "I think this knife seems to be quite new, do you know when and where you bought it?" Zhu Huiru recalled, and said: "About a month ago, my brother bought it at the small supermarket opposite the store." "How many did you buy in total?" "Just this one. I bought it for peeling fruit. I haven't used it a few times."

"Is this knife usually kept outside, or in a drawer?" "In the drawer." "Does your brother usually use this knife?" "Not much use." "Does he know you brought a knife tonight?" "He shouldn't have seen it." "And does he know the knife is in the drawer?" "Yes, but I don't think he pays much attention to such trifles." "Oh." Luo Wen nodded, and stopped asking about the fruit knife. Then, he asked the two of them to tell the whole story of what happened tonight in detail. After thinking for a moment, he said: "The little rascal was a Someone came to the store and asked you to deliver a takeaway to the river?"

"Yes." Zhu Huiru nodded. "The situation seems to be better than I expected. Judging from this situation, besides the three of us, the person who knows that the little rascal wants you to deliver food, there is also your brother." He pursed his lips and continued, "But you can't take chances. Guo Yu, you said that you saw him eating supper with several other people before?" "right." "Then it's also possible. In fact, when he was eating supper with a few friends, he once said that he would come to you later. If this is the case, if the police ask you, and you say that you haven't seen this person last night, it will easily cause trouble." Suspected and debunked. So, if the police ask, you tell the truth exactly."

"Tell me exactly?" Zhu Huiru opened her mouth slightly. "Yes, if the police investigate the two of you in the future, tell the truth about everything, and the only thing you have to lie about is the murder scene. Guo Yu, do you like her?" Luo Wen looked at Guo Yu. Guo Yu blushed, lowered his head, and said nothing.Before tonight, he had never expressed any affection for Zhu Huiru, but now this uncle asked so bluntly. Luo Wen smiled, and said: "Yes, this is the state. If the police ask you, you'd better be in this state. You like it in your heart, but you are shy and can't say it."

Zhu Huiru couldn't help laughing. Luo Wen said very seriously: "If you admit it directly, it doesn't fit your personality. An experienced policeman will investigate your surroundings to understand your personality and habits. If you behave abnormally, it will arouse suspicion. Therefore, You two, all your words, including your lying words, should be maintained in the usual state, and don't deliberately add oil and vinegar." Both nodded. Luo Wen continued: "Let me tell you the basics of the whole incident first, and later I will tell you every detail, including all the questions the police may ask, and teach you how to answer, not just the content , and the tone of the answer. These are very important, although very cumbersome, but necessary. I can see that you two are people with flexible brains, the kind of people with dead brains, teach a thousand times ten thousand times I won't understand either."

Both of them laughed.Zhu Huiru thought that his brother should be regarded as the kind of person that the uncle said would never be taught. Luo Wen said: "After 10 o'clock in the evening, that little hooligan came to your noodle shop and asked you to deliver a takeaway to the river. Although you were reluctant, you went anyway in order not to cause trouble. Guo Yu, who was eating noodles at this time, because He secretly likes you in his heart, and after hearing what the little rascal said, he was worried that you would have an accident, so after you left, he thought about it for a while and decided to follow you. After you delivered the food to the river, the little rascal wanted to molest you, you Struggling to escape, but fell, Guo Yu passed by at this time, and the little rascal saw someone coming, so he fled back to the river. Your leg broke a layer of skin and sprained its tendon, which hurts a lot. After trying for a long time, I found that I couldn’t walk at all, so Guo Yu had to carry you back, and then went to the convenience store to buy medicine and gauze. The whole thing is like this.”

"Is that all right?" Guo Yu looked a little incredulous. "This is just the general situation. I will teach you the specific details and the answers to various possible questions later." Luo Wen patted his head and said, "By the way, I almost forgot one thing." He put on a pair of rubber gloves, turned around and opened the shoulder bag, took out two and a half stacks of hundred-yuan bills, and took out two pairs of brand new rubber gloves. He glanced at Guo Yu and Zhu Huiru who were completely puzzled, Said: "There are a total of 25,000 yuan here. The two of you help, put on gloves, and fold each piece of money into a peach heart. I don't know how to origami, I think you should. This is a very important part. You don't need to know why, just do it. Wearing gloves is to keep your fingerprints off the money. There are many people's fingerprints on a RMB, but in order to leave no flaws as much as possible, it is best not to leave a single fingerprint. Safety."

The two of them looked at each other, not understanding Luo Wen's intention at all. Luo Wen explained: "This is about the handling of the crime scene, but I don't intend to tell you the reason. If you know too many details, when faced with police interrogation, reveal information that you shouldn't know, then It will be very dangerous. You two only need to know the lie I told you and the answers to various questions related to it. You should not try to find out the case. Especially after the body is found tomorrow, there must be many people nearby Talking. You just need to remember the version of the story that is being talked about in the streets and lanes, and don't think about the truth."

He further explained: "In any murder case, if the police want to find out the truth, there are nothing more than three elements, witnesses, material evidence, and oral confession. The so-called perfect crime usually has zero witnesses, zero material evidence, and zero suspects." Confession. I am the only witness for tonight’s incident. As long as I don’t tell the truth, there will be no second witness. It's about the confession." "If one day in the future, the police personally interrogate the two of you, the experienced police will use all kinds of clichés to sum up what you both said to see if there are any contradictions. In a joint crime with accomplices, Usually, false collusion is easily detected by the police."

Both Guo Yu and Zhu Huiru's expressions changed, full of tension. Luo Wen smiled, and said: "Let's think about it a little bit in reverse, why is it easy for the police to find out why the forged confession is colluded, and block the reason, isn't it enough? In one case, the two of you will combine your confessions At one point, there are logical loopholes, such as the time and order of the events recalled by the two people are different. This problem does not exist in the statement I gave you. As long as your description of the incident before the incident is completely in accordance with the actual situation, the incident The confession at the release stage is completely in accordance with what I provided to you. Don’t add oil and vinegar, and don’t use any imagination. Remember, don’t add any imagination. All imagination is superfluous and will only bring trouble. If you don’t know, just Don’t try to think for the police when the answer is different from what you know. The police ask one question and you answer one question. Never ask the police one question and you answer three questions. Talking too much is very dangerous. Second, the police It is usually said that the accomplices have already been recruited. At this time, criminals with poor psychological quality will often collapse psychologically. Under the enlightenment of the police that "early confession can be dealt with leniently", they will soon show their flaws. So one of the important reasons for choosing to help the two of you is that both of you have the heart to be a scapegoat for the other. Unlike other co-offenders, when the police deceived one person into saying that the other party had already recruited and got several details of the crime correct , he broke down mentally and broke the stage and confessed to each other. Remember, since you both want to protect each other, no matter what the police ask you, you can’t confess. Even if he said that the other party has confessed, and even many details of the crime are correct, You still don't believe it. You have to trust each other, and the other party will definitely not tell. You can protect the other party only if you don't tell. Otherwise, if one person confesses, the three of us will be finished."

Luo Wen looked at them very seriously, and they both nodded seriously.Luo Wen knew that this link was the most dangerous link.As long as this link passes, both of them will be safe and sound. Guo Yu asked, "When will the police find us?" Luo Wen smiled and said: "Maybe I will look for it, maybe I won't. Maybe even if I find you, I will treat you as ordinary people around to see if there are any clues, and I won't treat you as suspects." "If...if other people know that I delivered food to that hooligan, will the police...would they seriously suspect me?" Zhu Huiru was a little uneasy. Luo Wen said: "It is possible at the beginning, but they will soon give up—if they are qualified police officers." "Why?" Zhu Huiru was curious. Luo Wen smiled mysteriously: "If their business quality is professional enough, they will find that you two have an alibi, and that you don't have enough time to commit the crime. If that's the case, they won't regard you as suspects at all. " "What!" Both of them opened their eyes wide.The two obviously went to the scene, and Luo Wen said that the two of them were captured by surveillance cameras, so how could there be an alibi?
