The hotel's cafe has been temporarily requisitioned by the patrol room as a temporary waiting area for relevant parties on the fourth floor to wait for questioning.
Although the patrols first questioned the two direct parties-Han Zhesheng and the resident in Room 404, according to Inspector Huo Ke, they needed to question more people and get more clues.
Therefore, everyone present in Room 404 had to be questioned after registration, including MISS Liu who had fainted previously.
However, in line with the principle of ladies first, MISS Liu (Wu Qiuyi) has already been questioned by a Chinese police officer Ran Jun, and she is sitting on the side sulking in high spirits.
"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
Young Master Senpo (Ma Xiaoguang) first walked over and asked with concern.
"What kind of incident is this? They just stayed in the hotel, went downstairs to take a look, and then they were patrolled for questioning..."
MISS Liu Po said with some displeasure.
"Isn't this a follow-up question? I don't think you could finish the question in just a few sentences?"
Master Senpo said nonchalantly.
"You can't say that...I've never been questioned like this since I was a child, like a prisoner being interrogated."
MISS Liu was still a little angry.
"Oh! Mistoto, is this beautiful lady your lover? She is so beautiful!"
Little Detective Poirot came over from behind and said in a fuss, as if he had discovered a new world.
MISS Liu glanced at Detective Poirot, and a blush flashed across his face. On the contrary, he didn't seem angry at all, and he didn't deny the foreigner's statement at all.
Young Master Senpo had a stern look on his face, and was about to explain a few words, but saw that MISS Liu's eyes were a little unkind, and he could only swallow his words that he was going to argue.
"Mr. Poirot is really a brilliant detective! He can see it at a glance!"
The fat man gave a rare thumbs up and sincerely praised the foreigner's judgment. After saying that, he turned around and gave Master Senpo a mischievous smile.
"Oh! Are you the famous Detective Poirot? The murder on the Orient Express was solved so wonderfully! I am so lucky to meet you in Shanghai!"
MISS Liu heard this, opened her beautiful eyes and praised continuously.
After being praised by the oriental beauty, little Detective Poirot smiled brightly, and his eye-catching red nose seemed to get even redder...
"Ma'am, that's my brother you're talking about, but I actually gave him a lot of useful clues and ideas at the time. Are you interested in having a cup of coffee together and I can tell you in detail?"
Because he was in a good mood, little Detective Poirot suggested that they all have a drink together.
"No problem, but it's your treat!"
Master Senpo seemed to be in a bad mood and spoke directly without grace.
"Well...for the beautiful lady's sake."
Detective Poirot shook his head and said.
The coffee was served quickly.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Master Senpo quickly urged: "Okay, Detective Poirot, stop chatting and tell me, what do you think of this case?"
Little Detective Poirot leaned on the sofa, holding his chin with one hand, and said seriously: "This matter looks very simple, but it is actually a bit complicated..."
"Detective! Just tell me..."
MISS Liu quickly took over his words and asked curiously.
Seeing the oriental beauty's eagerness for knowledge, Detective Poirot perked up and lowered his voice and said to the three of them: "After my careful analysis, the Chinese cannot be the murderer, and certainly cannot be the person in room 404. He You can’t do it…”
"Then who is it?" MISS Liu continued to ask.
At this time, Master Senpo and Fatty have transformed into background supporting characters. At this time, there is no need for them to steal the show.
"My judgment and experience tell me that the murderer has not gone far, and is very likely still in this hotel, or even in the coffee shop!"
Detective Poirot used an extremely mysterious tone and whispered.
"ah?"
MISS Liu covered her mouth and sighed in a low voice. Fortunately, the sound was not loud and did not attract the attention of other guests at the table.
Seeing the beauty's reaction, Detective Poirot became even more enthusiastic. He took a sip of coffee and continued: "There are three reasons. One is, the special status of the guest in room 404 means that he cannot commit murder!"
"The second thing is that the blood on the ground had gradually begun to solidify when we entered. Obviously, the waiter should have died earlier."
"Listening to the voice, the shout we heard on the fifth floor was from guest 404. We can analyze that he must have seen the deceased and the Chinese when he returned to the room..."
After listening to Detective Poirot's analysis, MISS Liu Ze looked like a little fangirl, looking at the "detective" with an expression of admiration.
Young Master Senpo and Fatty also put away their contempt and listened carefully to the "detective's" analysis.
"So, Detective, who do you think the murderer is? Or who is most likely to be?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was good, the fat man hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and asked quickly - Miss Liu can't be allowed to perform a one-man show by herself.
Detective Poirot lowered his voice and continued: "Madam and gentlemen, it is actually very simple to find the murderer. Let's analyze the motive first. The murderer must have gone to room 404 to find something, such as the legendary machine..."
"Then what?"
"Then while he was searching, he met the waiter who suddenly entered the room. It was completely normal for the waiter to enter because publicly, the room was unoccupied at that time, right?"
"Sounds reasonable..."
"Because the murderer's whereabouts were discovered and recognized by the waiter, in order to prevent his whereabouts from being leaked and avoid future troubles, he..."
Detective Poirot ended his reasoning with a stabbing motion.
However, the imitation hit the fat man across from him, and the fat man actually cooperated and fell on the sofa.
This scene made MISS Liu see it as if it were happening again, and she immediately showed an expression of disbelief.
The young master Senpo next to him curled his lips and rolled his eyes.
Detective Poirot seemed to see Master Senpo's disdain, his face changed, and he said very solemnly: "After the murder, the murderer originally planned to dispose of the scene and escape."
"It's a pity that he was so unlucky. The Chinese happened to sneak into the room again, and he immediately hid somewhere in the room!"
MISS Liu suddenly understood when he heard this: "Oh! I understand. Later, when the guest in room 404 came back, he saw the person who went in later, and then shouted, alarming the residents on the entire floor..."
"Yes! Madam, you are both beautiful and smart. The real murderer just needs to blend in with the crowd of onlookers!"
Detective Poirot fully recognized MISS Liu's speculation, and then proudly expressed his final conclusion.
"Ah? Detective, you said that the real murderer was among the onlookers later, that is to say, he is in this cafe?"
At this time, the fat man jumped up and said loudly.
It looked very much like Garfield jumping up in pain after his tail was stepped on.
