Archives Department, Su Mo was lying on the bed playing with his phone. He was very interested in this phone because it was Xie Kun's phone.
At first, when he took Xie Kun's phone, he only felt that perhaps through this phone, he could find other disciple members.
Over this period of time, he found that this phone was very special. It seemed that it could not be located. He had also verified that it really could not be located.
In addition, there was another particularly awesome place about this phone. The software on this phone were not regular software that the outside world could not view the search history.
This was very practical. It was simply a magic device that crime perpetrators must have. Su Mo decided to just use this phone.
But he did not discard Xie Kun's SIM card. Instead, he installed it in another phone to see if there would be any unexpected gains.
At this moment, the other phone kept making ringing tones. Su Mo's eyes lit up and he hurriedly picked it up and took a look.
It was a text message: "Night Judge in Darkness, let's play a game, I will give the questions, you solve them.
If you solve them, then it will be your turn to give the questions and I solve them.
We continue until one of us cannot solve the questions. The loser will join our organization. If I lose, I will let you kill me.
What do you think? Want to play this game? Oh, I forgot to tell you, I am the Leader of Disciples."
Su Mo didn't even think about it and directly replied: "I like playing games."
Soon, the other side sent back a URL and a password, plus a few words: The game begins.
Su Mo immediately got up and used his phone that could not be traced to log in to this URL, then entered the specified folder and entered the password.
Then many photos popped up, along with various information, all about the recent poisoning murder case.
Su Mo really did not know about this case. Mainly because the authorities had sealed it too tightly. Even internal personnel had signed confidentiality agreements.
After reading it for a long time, Su Mo finally understood the details of the matter. At the same time, it was also the first time that he felt doubtful about a case.
Because this case was really inconceivable. It was almost impossible to happen, but it really did happen.
He crossed his arms, closed his eyes and started thinking:
"The perpetrator of this case is No. 6, a solo murderer.
So, the first problem that needs to be solved is how did one person poison 9 households at the same time?
The 9 crime scenes were all closed rooms. This cannot be faked. No. 6 also could not have made closed rooms one by one. So, there is only one possibility.
That is, before the victims returned home, No. 6 had already completed all the arrangements.
So, the second problem that needs to be solved is what kind of arrangements did No.6 make?
The third question is also the most incomprehensible one.
The monitoring of the 9 residential areas shows that there were no suspicious persons entering or leaving the residential areas that day. Even more, no suspicious persons had gone to the victims' homes.
So how did No. 6 enter the victims’ homes to make arrangements?
At the same time, how did No. 6 perfectly avoid all monitoring? This is not something that caution and experience can achieve. No, it simply cannot be done.
It seems that this puzzle is difficult enough. I can only think slowly..."
The next morning, Su Mo was facing a map of Xikang City, writing and drawing on it.
He marked the locations of the 9 households on the map, then connected them with lines, which made an oval shape.
Then he circled the area at the center of this oval.
"If I were the murderer, no matter what method I would use to kill these 9 people, I would choose to operate in this area. That way, it would be more convenient for my subsequent actions."
As for why Su Mo said 9 people instead of 16 people, it was obvious.
These 9 officials were No. 6's targets. The other 7 family members were all accidental killings, completely unimportant.
He didn’t have any better ideas at the moment, so he could only start from the landing point of the murderer.
And he also knew that No. 6 must have already escaped. It would be impossible for that Leader to wait for him there. Otherwise, the Leader would not play this game with him.
His mindset was different this time. He knew that the murderer could not be caught, nor could he kill anyone. He just wanted to play this game, that’s all.
In the afternoon, Su Mo drove to the middle area. Today was weekend and the Archives Department was closed, so it was just right.
This area was a prosperous commercial district. People came and went and traffic was busy. Su Mo wondered if his analysis was wrong. Was this area really suitable for the murderer to land?
After wandering in the commercial district for more than half an hour, he saw a movie theater. Suddenly he felt like watching a movie.
He bought a ticket and went in. There were still quite a few people inside. He sat in the last row on the edge.
The movie was called "Mysteries of Space-time". It was a suspense film about a physics professor who used physics knowledge to commit murders.
Su Mo didn’t watch for long before guessing the ending, so he was a little bored and began to doze off.
Since coming here, when he was not killing, he was on his way to kill. He was not tired, just a little mentally strained.
The movie theater environment made him very relaxed. He fell asleep unknowingly.
"Sir, sir..."
Su Mo opened his eyes to see a staff member gently patting his shoulder.
He looked around and realized that the movie had long ended and only he was left.
"Sorry, I was a little tired and fell asleep. I'll leave now."
"It's okay, take your time, welcome back next time."
When he walked out of the movie theater, it was just after 5 pm. He felt a little hungry and wanted to eat something.
There were too many snack bars on this street. Su Mo bought quite a lot, then sat on a bench by the roadside, eating while watching passersby.
Suddenly, two children ran past him, and Su Mo stared blankly for a few seconds. He suddenly had an inspiration.
"Could it be like this?"
