SURPRISE HOTEL

Chapter 3 Double Chamber

"How did you get locked into the room?"

"Around yesterday evening, I received a note, the other party said that they could provide a special medicine to cure my daughter's consumption, and asked me to meet at the old tavern on Jiangbei Road." Worker Liu Zili was full of sorrow, "My daughter's illness is not a day or two old, if I can't find the medicine again, she may not last long. Someone suddenly said he was willing to give me medicine, this is a great benefactor! I didn't even think twice before I went. I arrived at the door of the tavern just after eight o'clock that night; the door was open, but there was no light. I walked in on a dare, and then I was bewitched with a handkerchief over my mouth and nose."

"I went through the same thing as he did." Tan Xianghe said, "I also received the note."

Lu Ting looked him up and down, "Did you owe a debt and someone said they would pay it for you?"

"How do you know?" Tan Xianghe was shocked.

Lu Ting did not explain too much, this kind of obvious analysis was nothing difficult for him.

At Tan Xianghe's age, she shouldn't have a family yet. He didn't seem to be rich, and he looked like a loafer, so it would be strange if he didn't have debts.

The difficulty lies in who killed the victim.

Why did the murderer choose to confuse the two of them and leave them at the scene, what is the significance.

Moreover, these two have not ruled out the murderer so far, so maybe the murderer is one of the two and the other is lying.

Or even, it's not impossible that both of them are the murderer.

If both of them are the murderer or one of them is, how did the door get locked.

Was there a fourth person involved, acting as an accomplice to one of them, locking the door?

"You, continue." Lu Ting pointed at Liu Zili. He felt that this simple-looking person was a bit more trustworthy in his words.

"When I woke up again, I was locked in a small dark room. It was so dark in there that there wasn't even a light. There were three people in the room at that time, besides us, there was a woman, the one who died." Speaking of this, Liu Zili's heart palpitated, "The three of us felt cheated after talking, but we didn't know who the person who locked us in here was. The door in the room was locked from the outside, we didn't push it open, and we didn't see a response when we called out to someone. In order to prevent people from the outside from coming in and harming us, the three of us discussed and then put the door on the inside with a bolt. The strength of the ecstasy had not yet passed, I fell asleep in a daze, and when I woke up the next day, I found the woman dead beside me!"

"Locked on the outside, unlocked on the inside. The person inside can't get out, the person outside can't get in ......," Lu Ting murmured as he touched his jaw, "Double secret room murder."

Completely closed secret room, the murderer had no way to come in and kill, indicating that the murderer must have been in the secret room at that time.

Then apart from the two people in front of them, it couldn't be anyone else.

Looking again at the area of blood stained on the opposite pair, there was not much difference in size.

It means that the woman was killed sleeping right in the middle of the two, and the two people had the same likelihood of doing it.

Lu Ting was thinking down when the agent came over and stood beside him and said a few words.

"Inspector, the identity of the deceased has been investigated."

"What kind of person?"

A light flashed between Lu Ting's eyes.
