Chapter 2503
The assistant was shocked. “The deceased was hung outside the building?”
“Actually, this is the inspiration that Norman gave me. There’s a few feet’s worth of extra ground protruding on the outside of the edge of the rooftop. Even if the rooftop had surveillance cameras too, the murderer would still be able to jump down and land on that tiny space. However, that plan will need at least two people to succeed.
”
“The accomplice was on the balcony of the deceased’s apartment to assist the murderer who slid down the rope, and the accomplice must be someone who was very close to the deceased. He could use the excuse of going through the surveillance footage that recorded his beloved’s suicidal behavior and pretend to destroy the footage in anger, while the murderer could take advantage of that to escape.
Rory laughed happily. “Yes, this is indeed more in line with a plot that has two criminals.”
Freyja snapped her fingers. “But if there is only one murderer, the plot will be completely different. The murderer used the protruding ground design on the roof to tie a rope that led down to the deceased apartment, then tied the unconscious victim onto the rope and hung her outside the building. Then he pretended to be the deceased and was captured by surveillance cameras when leaving the apartment. The murderer will then go to the roof, pull the rope up, untie the rope, and let the victim drop down the building.”
Rory frowned. “But the forensics will discover the marks on her waist and the folds on her clothes. This won’t be a perfect crime.”
The assistant also nodded. “That’s right. Besides, a woman’s strength wouldn’t be that great, but if the murderer was a man, how could a hulking man pretend to be the victim, who’s a woman? It just doesn’t make sense.”
