Miao Zhengxiong also saw the photo on Lin Chen's phone. He said softly,""Lin Chen, you said that this pair of leather shoes betrayed the suspect. Is it because some sand grains are embedded in the anti-slip texture of the soles, so you think that the suspect has been here before?”
After hearing the mayor's guess, Zhang Tian 'ai and the others nodded slightly. Lin Chen's thoughts should be what the mayor had said.
Lin Chen glanced at Miao Zhengxiong and nodded.""You're right. It's precisely because of the sand grains on the soles of the shoes that we can confirm that Bao Qingshan came to this rooftop. Wang Xuefeng's death is related to him.”
After being stunned for a moment, Bao Qingshan's eyes widened. He said in extreme anger and speechlessness,"Comrade Security, is there something wrong with your brain? Just because there's sand embedded in the soles of my shoes, you're saying that I came here and killed Wang Xuefeng?”
"Yes." Lin Chen said calmly.
"Haha…"
Bao Qingshan laughed and pointed at Lin Chen, saying,""I really don't know what to say. If I say something nasty to you, I might be accused of insulting public security again. Comrade public security, oh comrade public security, let me ask you, is there no sand in the entire Tianhai City other than this rooftop?”
"When I walk on the streets, go to other people's houses, and walk in remote alleys, these places are all spotless and without a speck of sand?”
Bao Qingshan's voice was very loud, echoing throughout the entire rooftop, allowing everyone to hear his words clearly.
Although the dozens of people present wanted to know who the murderer was, Bao Qingshan's rebuttal was flawless.
Miao Yunfei frowned. She looked at the scattered sand on the ground and said,"Lin Chen, your deduction is too unreliable. How can you say that Bao Qingshan had been here just because there was sand embedded in the soles of his shoes? There are many such things on the streets and alleys.”
"That's right." A young security officer stepped forward and looked at Lin Chen."Your inference doesn't hold water at all. It's normal for the anti-slip patterns on the soles to be embedded with sand.”
This young security guard was the one who had flattered Miao Yunfei and wanted to beat up Lin Chen for her. He was also the one who had picked up Bao Qingshan's family of three.
The landlord of this building and a few tenants who had come to watch the show also discussed in a low voice. They felt that Lin Chen's deduction was too unreliable.
"Mayor, this Lin Chen doesn't seem to be much?”Secretary Xiao Zhu looked at Lin Chen and shook his head. Lin Chen's second deduction was ridiculous.
When Mayor Miao Zhengxiong heard this, he stroked his chin thoughtfully.
Although Miao Zhengxiong also felt that this deduction was unfounded and unfounded, Lin Chen's expression made him feel that things were not that simple.
" The sand on the soles of my shoes? What's so suspicious about that?" Miao Zhengxiong narrowed his eyes and thought to himself.
After Bao Qingshan heard their discussion and everyone's expressions, his voice became much calmer. He felt that he had successfully refuted Lin Chen's deduction.
"Comrade Public Security, look, everyone thinks that what I said makes sense. Your deduction is not valid. I haven't seen Wang Xuefeng for a week or two. How could I have been here and harmed him?”Bao Qingshan said.
Bao Qingshan's wife hugged her daughter, her face relaxed.
Everyone's attention fell on Lin Chen. They wanted to see if Lin Chen would continue to refute or reveal an embarrassed expression and admit that his deduction was unreasonable.
"Lin Chen, say something." Zhang Tianai urged Lin Chen when he didn't say anything.
Lin Chen bent down unhurriedly and grabbed a handful of sand. He extended the sand in his hand in front of Miao Yunfei and said,"Take a whiff of this sand."
Miao Yunfei frowned slightly. She didn't know why Lin Chen suddenly wanted her to smell the sand.
However, she didn't ask much. She leaned her face over and sniffed a few times. Miao Yunfei shook her head and said,"This sand is just sand. What smell can it have?”
Lin Chen reached out to Zhang Tianai and said,""She can't smell it. Try it."
Zhang Tianai also smelled it and said hesitantly,""My sense of smell is quite sharp, but I've never smelled other sand before, so I can't smell anything wrong.”
Lin Chen nodded. His gaze swept across the crowd and landed on an old security officer.
"Please pass me the mineral water in your hand.”Lin Chen said to the old security officer.
The old security guard handed over the half-drunk mineral water in his hand. After Lin Chen took it, he opened the bottle cap and poured some sand into the bottle.
Everyone looked at Lin Chen's actions curiously. They did not understand why he would put sand into the mineral water bottle.
After putting some in, Lin Chen shook the bottle a few times. The water and sand in the bottle shook, and the water instantly became a little turbid.
Lin Chen handed the mineral water bottle back to the old security officer and said,"Try this water. You don't need to drink it, just feel it with your tongue.”
The old security guard frowned, but the mayor was watching from the side. Without saying anything, he picked up the bottle and took a sip of the turbid water.
" Pah…" The old security officer spat out the water that had been poured in.
"What's that smell?" asked Lin Chen.
