Moments later a stranger naked from the abdomen down appeared in front of the computer and quickly turned it off.Her naked body was found covered in blood and semen.
Xian Chao Meng was on Skype with his girlfriend Qian Liu when she was murdered
Brian Dickson the murderer was her neighbour and admitted to police he had met Liu for the first time in the laundry room of their building earlier in the night that she died.
According to Meng, the night before he had been talking to Liu for hours on both Skype and QQ, which is China's version of MSN.
He was on his laptop in Beijing, where it was about noon, while Liu was doing homework in Toronto, where she attended York University and it was about midnight.
The couple had broken up three months earlier but remained friends, catching up every couple of weeks.
Meng told the court he could see Liu, wearing a headset, sitting in front of the computer in her apartment just south of the university campus.Also visible in the frame was the door, to about knee level.
'She said to me that somebody was knocking on the door. She would check,' he said.
Liu rose to answer the light knock, saying something through the door first in English, which Meng couldn't understand.
As Liu opened the door partway to her visitor, Meng caught sight of a man standing in the door frame.
The man, his hair mussed in the front, was wearing a half-sleeved dark-colored crewneck T-shirt and loose shorts.After the door was opened, the two had a chat close to the door frame,' Meng told court.
It seemed to Meng that the male asked to see Liu's cellphone.
The jury heard earlier that Liu had been having Wi-Fi issues and had asked other tenants — the building was full of student residents — for help resolving them.
Liu, said Meng, got her phone and handed it to the man.He did some operation on the cellphone.'While the visitor was thus occupied, Liu sat back down at her computer.Meng saw her face in profile as she spoke to the male.The man was in and out of the door frame.It seemed that he was hesitant.'
They appeared to be parting when 'all of a sudden, something abnormal took place.That male tried to force his way in. Liu was trying hard to push the door, not to let him in. She could not prevent him from entering. He wanted to embrace Qian Liu. (She) was all the time pushing at his chest.'
Meng heard Liu say 'No' in Cantonese.
'Maybe she felt he did not understand. Then she said 'No' in English. But that person did not listen.'
There was a struggle, visible to Meng.
'Qian Lu was pinned.'Liu fell out of camera range.Then I heard two muffled bangs. From then, I heard no more sound from Qian Liu.'In the silence that followed, Meng said he heard the man breathing heavily and, shortly afterwards, what he thought sounded like furniture being moved.
The light in Liu's room was shut off.Meng thinks he heard what may have been the jingle of keys.The male next appeared directly in front of the computer.
'He was already naked. I could see the part of his body below the abdomen to the knees. He leaned forward to shut off the computer.'
