    【Not Guilty Defense-07】

    When Lan Yarong and Yue Xingwen left, Zhu Xiaoting's mood improved a lot.

    Being alone and waiting for a verdict, and having a lawyer to help you, are two completely different experiences. The unfortunate girl's mentality stabilized, at least she won't break down and confess to the police. She insisted that she did not kill anyone, and things would turn around.

    After returning to Minghui Law Firm, Lan Yarong and Yue Xingwen looked for Lin Manluo immediately.

    Today, the whole team dispatched an investigation. Sister Manluo stayed in the law firm to summarize the data. The conference sent her all the results of the investigation. When Yue Xingwen arrived at her, Lin Manluo compiled a detailed form.

    Yue Xingwen asked, "Senior sister, do you have any new discoveries?"

    Lin Manluo said: "Xin Yanmen's chemical college investigation found that there is cyanide-potassium in the laboratory of the chemical college, but this "drug" is a high-risk "drug", and it is locked in the cabinet, making it difficult for students to Get it, unless someone secretly assigns the key to the cabinet. Xin Yan suspects that the monitor and the academic committee of the Hua Institute may have privately assigned lab keys in their hands."

    Yue Xingwen thought about it carefully, nodded and said: "Xin Yan's guess is very reasonable, it is impossible to buy the highly poisonous cyanide-potassium directly on the market, the laboratory of the School of Chemistry should poison Liu Jiajia. The source of cyanide-potassium. To get this poison, you must first be very familiar with the laboratory of the School of Chemistry.”

    Asked in the group: "@xinyan, is there surveillance in the laboratory building of the School of Chemistry?"

    Xin Yan replied: "There are surveillance cameras on each floor corridor, and it is almost impossible for the murderer to avoid the surveillance and steal the "drug". I think the murderer is a student of the School of Chemistry. Secretly opened the cabinet and took the "medicine". Or the murderer Ban Gan, with the key in his hand, took the "medicine" in the extraction laboratory where the experiment started."

    The murderer, Ken, was familiar with the laboratory of the Institute of Chemistry and knew where the cyanide-potassium-cyanide was stored. Taking the "medicine" at the preparatory stage at the beginning of the experiment, or taking the "medicine" after the classmates left at the end of the experiment and on duty, will not be photographed abnormally by the monitoring in the corridor, and it will not be easy to cause suspicion.

    Since a very small amount of cyanide-potassium can kill you, maybe the teacher won't find out how many grams of "medicine" in the bottle is missing?

    Ke Shaobin asked in doubt: "Shouldn't this kind of poison be controlled? Students can get it, isn't it very dangerous?"

    Xin Yandao: "In our school's School of Chemistry, 'medicine' is stored in the 'medicine' room, managed by a special 'medicine' teacher, and students need to take the experiment application form every time they do an experiment. , the "medicine" room receives the materials needed for this class, so there will be no situation where students take dangerous items privately. But Beishan University is different, there is a "medicine" medicine cabinet in the chemical laboratory of this school , is locked. If the teacher is more at ease with the students, gives the keys to the students and asks them to prepare the experimental materials, it may lead to the situation of secretly assigning the keys or stealing the "medicine"."

    Yue Xingwen said: "All the class cadres, students on duty, and those who have been in contact with the laboratory keys in the Chemistry College are suspicious. We must find people who know Liu Jiajia and have been to the beach yesterday to further narrow the scope."

    Qin "Lu" said, "There is a list of registered guests in the shop for people who came to the beach barbecue yesterday. I took a photo with my mobile phone." She posted a photo to the group, and the name of the reserved guest was included in the photo, and yesterday's temporary List of guests present.

    Xin Yan followed closely: "I will find a way to get the list of the School of Chemistry, and if I compare it with this guest list, I can find the students of the School of Chemistry who appeared on the beach yesterday."

    With ideas, the scope of the investigation will be further narrowed.

    Yesterday, areas a and b of the beach barbecue area were reserved by the students of the law school. Ken also heard about the law school's collective outing for barbecue. For example, Zhu Xiaoting, a translation major, was picked up by his friend Liu Jiajia. brought here. His classmates said no, they would also bring their girlfriends and buddies out to play.

    In addition, the seats in Area C are all FIT, and the murderer may also be among the passers-by in Area C.

    In any case, since Liu Jiajia died around 4:30 in the morning, the murderer was willing to come to the beach yesterday, and lurked among the crowd at the camp last night, immediately after Zhu Xiaoting left.

    Familiar with chemical laboratories, have access to cyanide-potassium, know Liu Jiajia, and appeared on the beach yesterday - people who meet these four characteristics will kill Liu Jiajia's murderer!

    Liu Jiajia's case got some eyebrows, and Yue Xingwen followed up to inquire about the progress of Xie Xiangqin's case: "Where's the girls' dormitory?"

    Qin Lu, who stayed in the girls' dormitory, said: "There are more than 40 girls who know Zhu Xiaoting in the girls' dormitory from the 8th floor to the 10th floor, and more than 30 of them are classmates in the school of translation. The medical school has dealt with Zhu Xiaoting. About 10 people, Zhao Canan mentioned by Zhu Xiaoting, I asked her roommate privately, and I learned that she was not in the dormitory last night and was in the hospital."

    Zhao Canaan, because the deceased Xie Xiangqin had robbed her boyfriend, and she and Zhu Xiaoting were high school classmates, so Zhu Xiaoting suspected that it was possible that Zhao Canan killed Xie Xiangqin and then blamed herself.

    The boyfriend who was robbed holds a grudge and has a motive for committing the crime. Knowing Zhu Xiaoting, knowing that Zhu Xiaoting bought a water jet, and having the conditions to frame it, this girl is quite suspicious in the eyes of Yue Xingwen.

    But Qin Miao's investigation concluded that she was not there last night?

    Yue Xingwen frowned and said, "Brother Liu, can you find out that Zhao Canan wasn't in the hospital last night?"

    Liu Zhaoqing immediately called back to the hospital and asked his colleagues to check which department the intern Zhao Canan was in. A colleague from the hospital said, "Dr. Liu, Zhao Canan is an intern in our emergency department. He was on the night shift in the emergency ward last night."

    Liu Zhaoqing thought about it carefully, and said, "I was on the night shift last night, and there was indeed an intern with braids helping in the emergency ward. She looked very serious, and most of them called her "Xiao Zhao". That Xiao Zhao is a medical student at Beishan University. Zhao Canaan from the hospital?"

    The colleague said: "Ah!"

    Yue Xingwen asked softly, "Will she leave the hospital privately at 5 in the morning?"

    Liu Zhaoqing hung up the phone, shook his head and said, "It shouldn't, the doctor's duty room is connected to the duty room where the intern sleeps. I woke up after four in the morning, and I didn't hear someone pushing the door next door, Xiao Zhao seemed to wake up at seven o'clock. Yes, and say hello to me."

    Unexpectedly, Senior Brother Liu became a witness, and this student Zhao Canan provided an alibi. Since Zhao Canan was in the hospital last night, it is impossible for her to go back to school to kill Xie Xiangqin. The murderer is someone else.

    Who will it be?

    Yue Xingwen said: "Senior Brother Liu, please check with the hospital. Among the medical students who knew the deceased, who was on the night shift in the hospital last night and who went back to school to sleep? We have to narrow down the suspects as much as possible. ."

    Liu Zhaoqing nodded and called his colleagues at the hospital to help investigate.

    It was quickly found, and a list of 5 people was screened and sent to the group: "These 5 medical school girls all went back to the dormitory last night. Among them, 3 live in 811 dormitory, 2 live in 812, Qin Miao you ask."

    Qin Miao's dormitory is on the 8th floor. After seeing the list, she knocked on the door of the 811 dormitory with a water glass, pretended to borrow water, and asked these girls to talk. The four people from 811 were all in the dormitory last night. Qin Miao asked, "What time did you get up today? I was woken up by the screams downstairs early in the morning. It seems that something happened in the dormitory 703. Do you know what happened?"

    The long-haired girl looked nervous: "It seems like a dead person, Xie Xiangqin is dead, it's terrible! I heard that Zhu Xiaoting stabbed him to death."

    Another short-haired girl said: "I didn't hear the screams. I was too tired to work the night shift for a few days, and I slept very deeply. Today is a rare holiday, and I slept until 10 o'clock in the night. This is still Xu Youyou during lunch. told me."

    The long-haired girl said, "I also heard what Yoyo said. I was too sleepy at the time, and I heard the screams, turned over and went back to sleep, and only after I woke up did I know that something happened downstairs."

    Qin Miao asked, "You two were sleeping this morning? Has Xu Youyou been out?"

    The short-haired girl nodded: "Well, Yoyo sleeps relatively lightly, and she has the habit of running every morning, and her schedule is very regular. Maybe she was woken up by screams, so let's take a look."

    Qin Miao thought thoughtfully: "Xu Youyou doesn't know Xie Xiangqin and Zhu Xiaoting?"

    The girl said, "She and Zhu Xiaoting worked together on a work-study program and worked as an assistant in the Academic Affairs Office, so they should know each other. However, Yoyo has a cold personality and doesn't usually like talking to people."

    Qin Miao chatted with the two girls for a while, followed by chatting about what happened in the morning in the 812 dormitory.

    The head of the 812 dormitory said, "I don't know. I was on night shift last night, and it was noon when I came back from the night shift. By the way, Zhang Ning and Wang Xiaolu were there last night, right?"

    Another roommate said: "Zhang Ning went home last night, and Xiaolu was there. However, when I asked her at noon, Xiaolu said that she didn't know what happened. Someone screamed early in the morning, and then the police came. The police were gone when she came downstairs."

    Qin Miao quickly sorted out the results of the investigation and sent it to the group: "Dormitory 811, the two girls were sleeping when the crime happened. Xu Youyou came out and knew that Xie Xiangqin was dead; Dormitory 812, a native of Zhang Ning, went back to live last night. Yes, the other two roommates were on the night shift last night, and Wang Xiaolu was alone in the dormitory."

    Lin Manluo immediately marked the two names in red on the form: "Xu Youyou from 811 and Wang Xiaolu from 812 last night are both medical students, and no one can provide her with an alibi."

    Yue Xingwen nodded: "These two key points of investigation."

    Jiang Pingce followed up and said: "We checked the deceased's boyfriend Zou Jia, who played black games with his roommates last night, and went to bed until 4 am. It is said that the entire dormitory slept until 1:00 noon. I just woke up. After learning about Xie Xiangqin's accident, Xu was a little broken, and when I passed, several roommates were persuading me."

    Yue Xingwen: "Do you have an impression of Zhu Xiaoting?"

    Jiang Pingce said: "I know, they are all from the Translation Institute, but I don't seem to know that Zhu Xiaoting has a crush. By the way, Mu Da, is in love with the deceased sister Xie Xiangqin."

    It seems that the most suspects are also two girls from medical school. After all, only someone who has a good understanding of the structure of the human body can accurately stab Xie Xiangqin to death.

    Yue Xingwen raised a doubt: "Xie Xiangqin died in the girls' dormitory 703 at around 5:30 in the morning on Saturday. The girl would lock the door when she was sleeping. The murderer entered her room, knocked on the door, and had the key of the 703 dormitory in his hand. When someone knocked on the door, someone knocked on the door early in the morning. If Xie Xiangqin was sleeping at the time, he would not open it for a while, and the knocking on the door was too loud to attract the attention of the next dormitory. Therefore, I prefer that the murderer has the key to the 703 dormitory in his hand. "

    For those who have keys, in addition to a roommate, there are also people who may have a close relationship with the roommate who have privately assigned the key.

    Yue Xing Wen Duan said: "Print out all the photos of these suspects, check the hardware store with keys near the school to see who has issued keys recently!"
