Everyone was stunned, and instinctively looked over.

  I saw a lot of people gathered near the door of the store.

  "It's right at the door of this store!" Sonoko's eyes widened.

  Lan also stood up in shock and said, "Really, what happened? A lot of people gathered!"

  Teacher Judy said, "Let's go and have a look together, or we'll know."

  The three walked out of the store and found that someone had been killed!

  I saw not far from the elevator entrance, a man was sitting on it with an envelope, his body kept moving with the elevator, and at the man's feet, there was a blood-stained knife.

  Everyone present was stunned.

  Judy's face changed slightly, and she said, "Mori, Suzuki, call the police and call an ambulance."

  "Yes!" Lan and Yuanzi's expressions changed, and they hurriedly started calling.

  Judy stepped forward to check the victim's condition.

  "already dead."

  The heartbeat and breathing stopped, and there was no possibility of rescue at all.

  Judy saw the man holding an envelope in his arms, with the paper bag on top.

  What is written on the envelope you are holding?

  I saw a few strange words or symbols written on the envelope.

  "Circle, fork, triangle? What does that mean?"

  After a while, the police came, and it was Ye Fan who dispatched the police, which surprised Judy.

  Xiaolan and Yuanzi looked very happy when they saw that it was Ye Fan.However, the two restrained their excitement. After all, Ye Fan was going to work now.

  "Yuanzi, Xiaolan...I didn't expect to meet you here."

  Sonoko said helplessly: "Yeah, who would have thought that someone would be killed."

  Xiaolan said: "However, Ye Fan, your words will soon solve the case. I'm right."

  Ye Fan's reasoning ability is no less than that of a detective. Xiao Lan has seen it before, so it's natural to think so.

  Officer Sato, who followed Ye Fan to the police, asked curiously, "Ye Fan, are they all your acquaintances?"

  Ye Fan said, "Yes, they used to be my classmates."

  Officer Sato asked in a low voice, "Isn't it your girlfriend?"

  Ye Fan snorted and did not answer, but said, "Start working."

  The elevator has been shut down, Ye Fan squatted in front of the deceased and said, "The victim died by piercing the abdomen with a kitchen knife."

  Officer Sato held the police manual and said, "The victim is Mr. Katsunori Nakajo, forty-three years old. The business card on his body proves that he is a detective."

  "Detective!" Ye Fan's police department frowned slightly, touched his chin, stared at the pattern on the envelope, and said, "The symbol on the envelope is a death message. But what I don't understand is what this strange death message means. "

  Judy approached Ye Fan and asked, "What's the matter? Officer Ye, are you stumped?"

  Ye Fan said, "." Yo, Mr. Judy, why are you involved in the case again?"

  Judy said, "I don't want to either!"

  Ye Fan said, "Since Mr. Judy, you are the party involved, then you can quickly provide some useful information."

  "We were in the cafe over there just now, and the power suddenly went out... When I called later, I heard a woman screaming in agony. I came to see that person..."

  "Power outage?" Ye Fan frowned.

  Officer Sato took the investigation notebook and said:

  Said: "This power outage seems to be caused by a point error when the building's management company checked the circuit. The power outage lasted less than fifteen seconds."

  Ye Fan said: "So, the prisoner took advantage of the accidental power failure to stab Nakajo Katsuki to death and then escaped? Nakajo Katsuya left an inexplicable death message before his death. However, the circle, the cross and the triangle, What do you mean by that?"

  Officer Sato was also full of doubts, and said, "It's all symbols that are commonly used in ciphers. Could it be a person's name that can't be said?" (Zhao Dezhao)

  "Speaking of which, I seem to have seen these symbols somewhere."

  Judy thought for a while and said.

  "It's too coincidental, Miss Judy is free."

  "Please think about it!"

  Judy quickly clasped her hands together and exclaimed, "Oh, it's the controller! There are those symbols on the controllers of Japanese game consoles!"

  Judy also asked with a smile: "You look at me like this, am I helping you?"

  Ye Fangan laughed a few times and said, "It's really helpful."

  Ye Fan shook his head, thinking to himself, I have to rely on myself to solve the case.

  Officer Sato said: "Actually, I don't understand. Nakajo Katsuya is going to die. What's wrong with him? Wouldn't it be better for him to leave such a secret code and write the murderer's name directly?"

  At this moment, a forensic officer ran over with a mobile phone and said, "Officer Ye, this is the call that the victim received [-] minutes ago.".

Chapter 475

  Just as Ye Fan was about to continue asking questions, he heard Yuanzi scream in surprise.

  "Ah, could it be the phone at the time?"

  Lan was also startled and shouted, "Ah!"

  Ye Fan turned around and asked, "Xiao Lan, Yuanzi, have you found anything?"

  Yuanzi put his hands on his hips, pouted, and said, "That person said a lot of strange things! Hey, Xiaolan?"

  "Yeah," Lan said softly, "like, 'What? There's a weirdo in ambush for you? I get it. I'm triple, no, quadruple, so come on, get your name and evidence Give it to me.' That's it."

  Ye Fan turned his head and asked the suspect, "What the hell is going on here?"

  "Got it! I said it! I said it all." The man immediately surrendered.

  Thinking about it, he also knew that in this case, he couldn't deny it at all.

  At the moment, Ye Fan and Sato took the man to a cafe not far away. There were too many people outside and it was difficult to speak.

  "Oh, we hired a detective to investigate the internal situation of the company." Ye Fan nodded, indicating that he understood.

  Next to him, Officer Sato took the police handbook seriously and took notes.

  The man nodded and said, "Yes, my name is Next Life Fan Jiu. Last month, it was discovered that someone had embezzled the company's public funds. Before notifying the president, I was ordered to find the culprit."

  "Where is that company?" Ye Fan asked, staring at Fan Jiu in the next life.

  Afterlife Fan Jiu said: "The eighth to eleventh floors of this building are our company."

  "That's it," Ye Fan understood, and said, "You received a contact from the detective saying that you found the culprit. In order to avoid meeting him in the company, you met him in this cafe, but at the appointed time he met him. It hasn't come yet, so I called him."

  "Yes." Afterlife Fan Jiu lowered his head slightly and said.

  Looking at the records in the police manual in his hand, Officer Sato said, "The envelope Mr. Nakajo is holding is empty, which means that the embezzler and the murderer are the same person."

  Ye Fan agreed: "It is very likely that he killed the detective, took away the evidence, and fled to the company upstairs."

  He turned his head to look at the next life Fan Jiu and said, "You don't have any clues about that embezzler?"

  "No," Afterlife Fan Jiu shook his head and said, "A week ago, I received an intermediate report from the detective, and the detective gave me a list of suspects."

  After speaking, Fan Jiu in the next life took out an envelope, opened it, and took out a piece of paper to show Ye Fan, "Officer, this is the list!"

  Ye Fan took it and frowned.

  Sato also frowned: "Is there too many names on it?"

  "Yeah, it's almost impossible to find out one by one!"

  The person in the appraisal class came over and said, "Officer Ye, I used the blood to find the fingerprints of Mr. Nakajo who was killed."

  "is it?"

  Sato reasoned: "Of course the blood belongs to Mr. Nakajo. Not long after it was written, the symbol was really written by Mr. Nakajo before his death, in order to point out the death left by the prisoner... In addition, the time when Mr. Nakajo was assassinated. , seems to be before the power outage."

  "Before the power outage?"

  "Yes, I just found the witnesses before the power outage. According to the witnesses' testimony, the power outage was only after a man in a coat stabbed Mr. Nakajo. The place where he was stabbed was in front of the elevator. The power went out while the envelope was in."

  "After the power was restored, Mr. Nakajo sat alone in the elevator, motionless. The man in the coat stood beside him, took out the documents from the envelope, and fled upstairs."

  Ye Fan came to the elevator entrance according to the clue and said, "So, Mr. Nakajo wrote 'circle, fork, triangle' on the envelope at the entrance of the elevator, which is around here."

  "Yes," Sato nodded and said, "I'm afraid it was during the power outage."

  "That is to say, in order to prevent the prisoner from taking the envelope, Mr. Nakajo held the envelope in his arms, but the information was still taken away by the prisoner. After that, Mr. Nakajo died, and the body was sent to the other end by the elevator."

  "In short, it can basically be concluded that the murderer and the embezzler are the same person. The rest is to unravel the meaning of the symbol on the envelope and find this person from the fifty-eight corrupt suspects."

  As soon as Ye Fan finished speaking, Yuanzi suddenly said, "If the 'fork' of the 'circle, fork, and triangle' is multiplication, is it a mathematical expression?"

  Lan also said in surprise: "But why is it 'circle, fork, triangle'?"

  Sonoko smiled and said, "If you write numbers, the prisoners will definitely find out, so use 'circles' and 'triangles' to deceive the prisoners!"

  Lan frowned, always feeling that Sonoko was saying something strange.

  Judy rubbed her chin next to her and cried, "Oh? So the prisoner must be a math student?"

  Sato blinked, turned to look at Fan Jiu, and asked, "Is there any staff in your company who are good at mathematics?"

  "No," Afterlife Fan Jiu shook his head and said, "Our company's staff are basically liberal arts students."

  Well, this possibility was directly rejected, Sonoko and Judy frowned.

  Ye Fan touched his chin and said, "Because the time is too short, think about it, the power outage lasts only fifteen seconds. During these fifteen seconds, Mr. Nakajo has to compete with the murderer for evidence. Where did he come from? Time to think about what code?"

  "But Ye Fan," Lan said, "In fact, Mr. Nakajo did write a secret code as a death message!"

  Yuanzi touched his chin and thought, "If it's a 'circle, fork, triangle', it's fish and tofu..."

  Lan thought to the side, and suddenly asked, "Hey, does that mean that?"
