The crowd finally understood.
However, Fang Keyu asked, “Then why did Jiao Tengyi open the iron bolt when locking the door?”
Xiao Wentai retorted, “Don’t you get it yet? It wasn’t Jiao Tengyi who opened the iron bolt when locking the door; someone entered Room 716 from the balcony after Jiao Tengyi locked the door and opened the bolt.”
“That doesn’t make sense!” Fang Keyu exclaimed, still wearing that infuriatingly clueless expression. “Wasn’t the glass door also locked from the inside? How could that person possibly get in?”
Xiao Wentai felt like giving him a couple of slaps. Suppressing his anger, he said, “Who said that glass door was also locked by Jiao Tengyi?”
“I’m getting more confused!” Fang Keyu replied.
Xiao Wentai, looking exasperated, continued, “Actually, the situation at that time should have been like this: The murderer sneaked into the dormitory while the administrator, Elder Ma, was sound asleep. The murderer clearly ‘predicted’ that Sun Lang would return here. So, when Sun Lang wasn’t paying attention, the murderer attacked him and strangled him to death.
At this point, after committing the crime, the murderer didn’t leave immediately; he might have hidden in the bathroom of Room 715 or even in Room 716 itself.
When Feng Zitian discovered the body and left the scene, the murderer had likely already pulled open the iron bolt. At this moment, it would be easy to open the door to Room 716 and move the body inside.
Then he could lock the glass door again and tighten the inner lock knob on the exterior bolt lock of the main door. After that, he would re-secure both iron bolts on the right door to keep it fixed.
Next, all he had to do was exit Room 716 and pull hard on the door to close it, creating the illusion that both doors were securely locked from inside and outside.
Since this place is not far from the stairwell, the murderer could quickly run up to the sixth floor to hide. Once Feng Zitian and the dormitory administrator returned to the seventh floor, he could leave swiftly. The murderer’s plan was indeed clever, but his mistakes also lay here.”
"Why?" Everyone was puzzled.
"In fact, the killer's intention was to frame Jiao Tengyi for the entire incident.
He went to great lengths to move the body to Room 716, making it seem as though only Jiao Tengyi, who had the key, could open the door to Room 716. This way, all attention would be focused on him.
The mistake was that the door was locked from the inside. This action served no purpose and only added to the confusion.
Consider this: if the killer were truly Jiao Tengyi, why would he go through the extra step of locking the door from the inside? Was it to prove that this was an impossible situation and clear his own name? That reasoning doesn’t hold!
If he wanted to exonerate himself, it makes no sense that he had already made Room 715—the crime scene—chaotic enough for people to mistakenly think a thief had broken in and committed murder. Why then would he move the body back to his own room, drawing suspicion back onto himself?
What kind of foolish murderer would do such a thing?
The only reasonable explanation is that the killer set up a trap, deliberately created chaos at the scene, and then moved the body in an attempt to make people suspect Jiao Tengyi! In his panic, he locked the door to Room 716 from the inside, likely without thinking it through.
It truly was a major blunder!"
