MTL - Card Room-Chapter 494

Chapter 494

A group of six people returned to the inn one by one, and each went to his room to lock the door.

No one was outside. Yu Hanjiang pressed the voice headset to call everyone to a meeting. He whispered, "I found a lot of clues about the murder case today. Everyone talked about their ideas and brainstormed."

Such a scene reminded him that every time the Interpol team met to discuss the murderer, although the teammates were not professional criminal investigators, they had experienced so many secret rooms together and their teammates had made great progress. Especially Xiao Lou, he wanted to hear Xiao Lou's opinion.

Looking at Shangyu Hanjiang's eyes, Xiao Lou said, "The murderer's method of committing crimes is to use a strange magic technique to attract people to the burial post in the middle of the night. This evil gate's technique may be related to the sound of the rattle. He will People will not be killed directly after being led to the mass grave, but torture these people and let them starve to death in a state of panic and hunger. "

Yu Hanjiang nodded. "The murderer's psychology has been distorted. He is not an impulsive crime, but a planned and cautious killing. He also arranged for himself to retreat, pretending to be a white ghost, and let the residents in the town believe the legend of Li Gui . "

Xiao Lou went on to say, "We found a lonely grave with no name at the mass grave. The grave is in an excellent location, and there are people burning incense without interruption. It should be buried with people who have a very close relationship with the murderer. According to the clues of the famine period, the most reasonable speculation is that a famine 20 years ago, a mysterious organization used "captive animal" to eat human flesh and drink human blood. The murderer's relatives, or himself, have been The organization was captive and mutilated, and the murderer escaped. He returned to retaliate after many years and wiped out all those who participated in the incident, and even wiped out all their descendants. "

Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou sang one harmoniously and summed up the logic of the current case tacitly.

These are the most reasonable motives for the two to speculate and analyze based on the clues investigated. Otherwise, it is difficult for a simple "anti-social pervert murderer" to explain all the murderer's behavior.

Liu Qiao wondered: "The rattle should be the key factor in this case. The rattle patterns we found in the Zhao and Chen families are all tigers, but investigations prove that the zodiac of the children of the Zhao family and the Chen family are not tigers. Suppose the rattle is the murderer. What remains is that the murderer ’s current age may be a young man of 29 or 41? "

Long Sen said, "Mayor Qin Feng, he should be about 29 years old. He hasn't gotten a wife and had children. He lives alone in a dark alley. It's not quite right. Today we took a body from the lake, he He did n’t continue the investigation. Although he was not the murderer, this person always felt very strange. "

Xiao Lou said calmly, "Qin Feng probably witnessed what happened in the famine 20 years ago, and reasoned out the logic of the murderer's crime. Many people in his roster have not yet died, indicating that he has found the trajectory of the murderer's crime and Motivation, he recorded the person who was not hit by the red cross, probably the name of the person the murderer is about to kill. As for the girl Shenhu case today, he will not let us investigate, this abnormal performance may be he and the second The case is also connected. "

Long Sen scratched his head. "I really am not good at using the brain. I have always wondered what the names of those people who have not died are. When Professor Xiao said that, I realized it!"

Qu Wanyue joked, "You are responsible for running errands and listening."

Long Sen "..."

Liu Qiao actively participated in the discussion. She said, "The letter left by the seniors is very important. On the day of the incident, five people who said that they saw a white ghost in a white suit, the one who lied, was definitely in the" Li Gui Suo Ming " The murderer is connected. "She paused." But who is lying? "

Xiao Loudao "Four of the five people said they heard thunder, and one said they didn't hear ... This one who didn't hear it must be true. Because, in the ghost town, the thunder lasted for a short time after the rainstorm The place where the five people live is very far away, and Li Gui cannot appear in five places at the same time when the thunder sounds. "

Yu Hanjiang quickly drew the coordinates of the five people's residence on a blank piece of paper.

Uncle Liu and Xue Ersao live close together, in the southeast direction.

Zhang Chengyu and Lin Yueran are relatively close, in the northwest direction.

The proprietress Qin Ruolan lives in the center of the town.

The five people just formed a "ring" shape.

Yu Hanjiang looked at Xiao Lou and pointed to the oldest Liu Uncle, and analyzed, "Uncle Liu was awakened by thunder and saw the female ghost flying over the door. The witness had died three years ago. His words should be Believe it? "

Qu Wanyue remembered the news that she had just heard, and then said, "We asked the neighbors nearby. Xue Ersao was also awakened by the thunder. She remarried to the field two years ago. She lives close to Mrs. Liu if Mr. Liu said yes Truth, Xue Ersao ’s testimony is also true. The thunder continued for a few seconds. The female ghost approached the road and could walk from the Eastern District to the Southeast District, so that both Liu Uncle and Xue Ersao could see one after another? "

Liu Qiao said, "If Mr. Liu, Xue Ersao, and the lady boss all told the truth, the two should not hear thunder."

The area of ​​the town is very large. If Li Gui appears in the east, it cannot be in the west at the same time. From East to West, it takes at least half an hour to walk.

Are both lying?

Xiao Lou looked at the coordinate chart on the table again and said, "It is unlikely that the two will lie at the same time. Moreover, the son of Butcher Lin Yueran also came out to testify, saying that she saw the ghost while thundering that night. At the same time, it is still thundering, and the child does not seem to be lying. "

Liu Qiao was stunned. "So, the result of our reasoning is wrong?"

Yu Hanjiang said, "The murderer of a case should be the only one. Of the five people, there is more than one liar, but there must be only one murderer."

The teammates were all dizzy.

Five people scattered around, the thunder only lasted 3 to 5 seconds.

If a female ghost appears in the Eastern District during thunderstorms, then the two in the Western District are lying; if they appear in the Western District, they are in the Eastern District.

If the murderer will split and appear in the east and west areas at the same time, why not split one more in the central area? Therefore, the proprietress's testimony is the most credible. If she is a murderer, she will surely follow the crowd and say that she also heard thunder.

Who is lying?

Everyone was racking their brains and thinking, and Yu Hanjiang suddenly said, "I know who it is."

Xiao Lou looked at him and pointed to a person's name on the paper he drew "Is this?"

Yu Hanjiang's lips twitched "as I thought."

Long Sen is still stunned. "Who is it?"

Liu Qiao also reacted and calmly analyzed, "Yes, our reasoning just set a prerequisite, that is, under the premise of" Uncle Liu is not lying ", Xue Ersao's words are true. But if Liu Is the old man lying? Compared with the old man, the child is more willing to believe that the child is not lying. "

Xiao Lou praised, "How can a dead person lie? Most people think so. We presume to use Liu's testimony as a basis for reasoning. But from the murderer's point of view-the dead person lied, is it not that there is no proof of death?"

Mr. Liu is old, and it is a bit confusing. Moreover, it is easy for the old man to add vinegar when telling ghost stories. Plus the old man died three years ago, the cause of death is still a mystery.

Xiao Lou paused, and then said, "Xue Ersao remarried to the field shortly after the incident, as if it had nothing to do with this matter, but is it not a means of" golden cicada shelling "? She saw the female ghost on the night of the incident One of the witnesses later remarried to the field, who would doubt her? "

Yu Hanjiang asked in a low voice, "Which family has Xue Ersao remarried to?"

Qu Wanyue said, "The neighbors didn't know, she just said that she packed up her bags and remarried to the field. She is a widow, her husband died early, and she usually doesn't like to deal with people."

It seems that the remarriage is what she said, and there is no justification.

Yu Hanjiang thought deeply. "What is Xue Ersao's real name? Everyone calls her Xue Ersao, it must be because she married a local man named Xue. But what is her true origin?"

Her true origin may be-the murderer of revenge.

Everyone looked at each other.

Xiao Lou was silent for a moment, and suddenly worried about the authenticity. "That's right. The letter left by his predecessor only mentioned that he went to the world with Jiujie, Tang, and Huaying three years ago. What about President Shao and Xiaoye? ? "

Yu Hanjiang patted his shoulder and comforted, “Do n’t worry, President Shao has two Tao Yuanming teleports from you. They also have a worm king card and they can be transformed. Their name is still on your contract. , It must be safe at present. Perhaps, they have also been sent to another time and space? "

Xiao Lou was stunned. "Time and space related to the case ... Could it be the world of famine 20 years ago?"

At the same time, Ye Qi and Shao Qingge took the mother and child to the woods where no one was nearby, and carefully asked about the famine in Qingfeng Town.

Shao Qingge asked in a low voice, "How long has the famine happened? Why don't you run away?"

The woman's face was pale and her voice was weak. "It's the same everywhere else! This year's drought in March, the harvested crops were less than 10% of last year. Those rich people have better days to store food. We ordinary people, our families store food It ’s only enough to eat for a month or two, and even if I drink clear porridge every day, now there is not even one grain of rice left in the rice jar ... "

Speaking of which, the woman could n’t help but choke, “Run away, where else can I go? There ’s nothing to eat, the road ca n’t move. Poor my child was born, I ca n’t even drink a sip of milk ...”

The baby in her arms cried for a moment, and now seems to have no strength to cry.

The famine apparently happened for a while. The ordinary people ’s food had been used up. The woman was wax-yellow and skinny. The child in her arms did not look as heavy as five kilograms. The little one was particularly pitiful.

Ye Qi was a little sad, but he dared not use bread and milk, foods that did not belong to this era, to help each other. He had to say softly, "Sorry, we didn't bring any food."

There was a trace of loss in the woman's eyes, and she carried the child to the bark in the woods.

Shao Qingge walked a distance with Ye Qi and stopped at the gate of the town. He looked back at the teenager beside him and asked with some distress, "In the secret room of the nightmare, did you live by eating leaves? "

Ye Qi said bitterly, "Yeah, so I can understand the feelings of these people. Extreme hunger can make people crazy, eating leaves and eating grass can all be hungry, and you don't have to think about what it tastes like. However, eating human flesh , I absolutely can't do it ... that's right! "He suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he looked to Shao Qingge." It was transmitted to twenty years ago, wouldn't it be for us to investigate the famine-related Clue? "

Shao Qingge nodded. "It should be. I can't reach anyone else. It seems that only the two of us were sent 20 years ago. Fortunately, we have a material supply card, and we have some money on our bodies. At least we won't be starved to death." "

He frowned at Qingfeng Town, who was in disarray.

The streets of the town are very desolate, no pedestrians are seen, doors of every house are closed, and there are traces of smashed and robbed everywhere. Shao Qingge lowered his voice. "Since we come, we will try to get in as soon as possible and investigate the captive. It ’s a human thing. You have to disguise yourself and wear such a brand-new dress to the town. It ’s too eye-catching. "

The two hid near the town, smeared some mud on their clothes, made some weeds in their mouths, pretended to be gray-faced and hungry for several days, Ye Qi did not know where to find a broken bowl, and seemed to be going to the town Ask for food.

Shao Qingge said, "Let's go."

He looked at Ye Qi ’s youthful look and looked at the messy “little beggar”, with a smile floating in his eyes. “I ’m playing brother this time. If father and son, the age gap is not big enough.”

Ye Qi nodded and spit behind him. "Well, calling you brother is better than asking your dad to accept."

Shao Qingge "..."
