Clue

This is the case.

Since the lawyer said that the possibility of retracting the confession is unlikely, the conversation between the two soon came to a halt since they had nothing to talk about.

In this depressed, doubtful and helpless mood, Max was brought back to that single cell again.

Oh, by the way, at the end of the conversation with the lawyer, Max also found out that he could stay in this cell for four more days and after four days, he would be dragged out and executed. 

Immediately after entering the cell, he fell powerlessly on the bed.

In fact, Max no longer has any fear of dying again. After all, compared to the way of dying by being crushed by a truck in his previous life, being shot doesn't seem to be a big deal.

It's just that Max felt a little aggrieved.

"People live their whole lives with infinite possibilities for the future, accompanied by beautiful women, working hard to accomplish their dreams, having a family, etc.

It's good for me, I didn't even get to eat a decent meal after coming to this world and I am about to die once again. Oh wait, I do remember that they give the desired food to the death row prisoner on the day he is executed . 

But still, isn't this a little embarrassing as a transmigrator? "

Depressed, Max turned over and started to sort out his memories first and see if he can find any clues to save his life . He was a mystery novel writer in his past life anyway, who knows if it might just work. 

One thing to mention is that due to some unknown reason, after rebirth, his reading speed and retention power has increased compared to his past life. Thanks to that, Max was able to clearly remember every single details from that day.

He started reviewing those memories in his mind like a movie with his eyes closed. But suddenly, Max discovered something suspicious and cried out dubiously.

" When I was escorted out of the warehouse by the police, the dust accumulated on the ground in front of the gap under the gate was a few millimeters thicker than that in the warehouse."

Max's muscles tensed up.

"There's dust in the gap under the gate? And many millimeters thicker than the layer of dust accumulated on the ground in the warehouse?"

Such a simple clue directly led to a very important inference in Max's mind!

That is, there must be a problem with the warehouse. Someone must have tampered with the crime scene. 

Because logically speaking, there must be a gap between the door of the warehouse and the ground. Otherwise, such a large door would rub against the ground every time it is opened and closed and it will be broken in no time.

Moreover, Max focused on a minute detail.

That is, under the door crack of the warehouse, the dust must be the least!

Because of the large space inside the warehouse, the wind from outside will enter the warehouse because of difference in atmospheric pressure through the gap under the door, resulting in a large airflow, especially at night, which will blow away the dust accumulated at that place.

But if this is the case, then how could there be dust accumulated in the gap under the warehouse door. And even if there is, it is impossible for it to be higher than the dust accumulated on the ground inside of the warehouse.

" This is obviously unreasonable and suspicious. "

Max swallowed nervously, because he seemed to have caught a very important turning point.

" Hahaha, I might be saved! May be I'm not the killer after all. "

So he stood up quickly and rushed to the barred window.

"Come on, come on! Prison guard! Come quickly!"

After loudly shouting and screaming for some time, the prison guard arrived soon after.

But this time, his footsteps were obviously much faster than before, and when he came into Max's sight, the baton was already held in his hand.

Before Max could speak this time, the prison guard had already taken out the cell key, cursing under his breath. 

"Wait you little bastard, I'll come in and deal with you right away!"

Well, the prison guard must be angry. Uhh, let alone the prison guard, even Max himself felt that he was provoking trouble.

"Brother prison guard, I didn't mean to be mean or deliberately disturb you, I really have something important to say."

"Well, I know that you have something important to say and I will definitely listen to it afterwards."

At this moment, the prison guard had already opened the door and rushed in with his baton.

If this followed the normal novel routine, it is estimated that at this moment, Max would use a combination of punches and kicks, counter-kill the prison guard, and escape from the prison cell by snatching the key from him.

In fact, Max wondered for a moment whether he could take the opportunity to knock down the prison guard.

But seeing the strong contrast between his own physique and the opponent's physique, Max obediently decided to be a law-abiding death row prisoner.

"Brother prison guard, let me tell you, I just got out of the hospital because of my mental illness!"

The prison guard ignored him, and the baton in his hand was already raised in the air.

"Beating a death-row prisoner, do you feel good about it ? And if I get injured after being beaten up by you, I would have to go to the hospital for an examination, and the execution will be postponed. At that time you will have to bear the responsibility!"

Max's mouth was like a machine gun. 

Although he didn't directly threaten him but the enunciation was quite clear. And the movements of the prison guard obviously became stagnant.

"Also, if I go to the hospital, when I am asked about the cause of the injuries, I will probably have to confess this behavior of yours. When the time comes, I will honestly report to the higher authorities. Can you keep your job at that time? It's hard to say!"

At this moment, the prison guard really hesitated, and he slowly put down his baton:

"Then what's wrong with you, screaming like a madman at this time? If you can't give a reasonable explanation, then believe me, I have dozens of ways to deal with you without leaving any traces."

As soon as Max heard that there was a step down, he quickly said in a hurried voice.

"I want to appeal! I want to reopen my case! There are loopholes in my case!"

Although he didn't say anything but the prison guard's entire face was written with words like "Kid, are you sure your mental illness has been completely cured? I don't know why the mental hospital released you. "

Max knew that he couldn't stop now and increased his efforts to sound more pitiful.

"Please brother, just help me this one last time and let me meet the lawyer again. Please save this pitiful soul! "

Max used everything he learnt from watching TV shows and movies as he squeezed the last drop of his acting potential, since this was his last chance to regain freedom.
