Chapter 149 Magician
Captain Han turned to look at Ning Ye, asked: "Brother, is there anything else you need me to do next?"
Ning Ye nodded, "Now that we have started calling people for questioning, we can continue to find some people related to this case and conduct simple inquiries to understand some situations."
Captain Han thought for a moment and said: "No problem, let's start with the magician and his assistant first. After all, the head of the deceased is hidden in their prop box."
finished,
Captain Han asked the magician and his assistant, who had been controlled by the police, to Take him to the lobby for questioning.
The faces of the two magicians were still ugly at this time.
Especially the female assistant,
Apparently he was frightened by the sudden appearance of the head.
I feel a little dazed.
Captain Han glanced at Ning Ye, Ning Ye nodded slightly and said, Then he coughed, He was the first to ask the two of them: "The dead head appears in the prop box of the magic show. Do you have anything to explain?"
heard,
The magician and female assistant both shook their heads quickly. The magician immediately said: "We really don't know what's going on? When we performed just now, we were scared to death."
"When I climbed into the box, I didn't even know there was a human head inside. If it weren't for the assistant's scream that reminded me, I probably wouldn't have discovered anything. Just thinking about it now makes me feel terrible!"
The female assistant also said with a trembling voice: "At that time, I was preparing to operate according to the normal procedures of magic, but when I opened the secret compartment of the box, I found... that head appeared inside..."
said,
The female assistant covered her mouth and said, I can't say any more.
Captain Han saw this, I didn’t ask any more questions about this issue.
But after a pause, He looked at the magician and asked:
"When was the last time you checked the prop box? Also, when did you arrive at the performance venue on the 14th floor?"
heard,
The magician took a deep breath, After thinking for a while, he said: "We arrived at the Goldman Sachs Tower around [-] o'clock this afternoon after receiving notification of the temporary change of party organizers."
"At that time, we moved the props we needed to a vacant room on the 14th floor. We also checked the prop box, but we didn't find any problems. I really don't know why it happened during the performance. Killed?"
Captain Han glanced at the magician, Then he asked the female assistant:
"Is everything he said true?"
The female assistant heard this,
Nodding slowly.
Captain Han then continued to ask:
"After you moved the prop box, what did you do next? Did anyone else touch the prop box during the period until the performance?"
The magician and the female assistant looked at each other, Then he shook his head and said:
"There will be other actors in tonight's party performance besides us. The vacant house is used to store the props that everyone needs to use during the performance."
"At that time, after we checked that the prop box was OK, we went to the lounge on the 14th floor. As for whether anyone else had touched the prop box, to be honest, we didn't know."
Captain Han frowned.
Then he looked at Ning Ye beside him, "It seems that we need to expand the scope of the inquiry next, and we must interview all the actors who participated in the performance!"
Ning Ye thought for a moment, nodded.
But in fact, in his opinion, Questions to those actors,
There is a high probability that you won’t get much useful information.
After all, that unused room, It should only be used temporarily to store props. No one will stay there too long, And this also gave the murderer enough time and opportunity to place the head.
but,
This is the normal procedure for the police to handle cases.
Relevant persons involved in the case,
Basically everyone has to be interviewed and take notes. To be cautious,
There is nothing wrong with doing so.
"The magician's performance was about a quarter past eight, and they arrived at the Goldman Sachs Tower at four o'clock. There was nearly four hours in between. What we can confirm now is that the murderer was definitely at the Goldman Sachs Tower during this period."
"However, judging from the time of death of the deceased, the murderer probably did not commit the murder during this period. Moreover, people were coming in and out of the 14th floor one after another at this time. It is obviously unrealistic for the murderer to kill at this time!"
"Combining with the fact that the deceased was probably hiding on the [-]th floor of the Goldman Sachs Building during his lifetime, it is very likely that the murderer killed someone in advance and hid in the building, and then found an opportunity to put the head in the prop box."
Ning Ye said,
After a pause, he said: "However, this requires all surveillance leading to the 24th floor within 14 hours to verify this speculation."
"The other one is that the surveillance of the entire building is only broken on the 14th floor. Therefore, the surveillance in other places should have recorded the murderer. But now we need to confirm who is the murderer?"
At this time,
The eldest lady next to me suddenly asked:
"Is there a possibility that the murderer is among the people we met? Maybe an internet celebrity? A staff member? An actor?"
Ning Ye nodded slightly and said:
"Of course it is possible, and there is a simple way to find out the murderer. Just compare the movements of these people in and out of the building, and you should be able to find some clues."
"But the problem is, this requires a lot of work, and it can only do a large-scale elimination method. If you really want to identify the murderer, you need other evidence!"
heard,
The eldest lady nodded thoughtfully.
Ning Ye continued:
"The murderer took the risk to put the head in the magician's prop box and let it appear in front of everyone. There must be a purpose in this."
"If the other party wants to kill people and hide their bodies, the whole building is so big. It's easy to hide them in any corner without being discovered for a while."
Captain Han heard this,
He frowned and asked in confusion: "So what is the purpose of the murderer? Is it simply to scare these Internet celebrities, or to provoke the police in Anseong?"
Ning Ye touched her chin and thought for a while. "If the murderer had not had a huge conflict with the police, the purpose of provoking the police to harm others would not have been achieved."
"My suggestion is to wait until the investigation and surveillance results come out. If there are no abnormalities in the surveillance, we can narrow down the location of the murderer."
Captain Han was silent for a while, Then he said nothing more, Just keep asking:
"Then do we still need to call someone in for questioning?"
Ning Ye nodded,
"Call the receptionists in the reception hall. Everyone who enters the 14th floor will basically have met them. They may find something, or they may have met the murderer."
Captain Han nodded slightly. Have the magician and female assistant be taken away,
Then let them follow Ning Ye's request,
Called the two girls at the front desk in.
The girl at the front desk obviously knew what was going on in the lobby. After entering,
He didn't dare to look in the direction of the stage at all.
"I have a few questions to ask you, and I hope you will cooperate with the police investigation."
Captain Han said in a calm voice.
heard,
The two girls in skirts nodded immediately.
"Did you see anyone with unusual behavior entering the 14th floor during your reception at the front desk today?"
Captain Han asked directly.
