None of us know where the second floor is, but it doesn't matter that much now. Free txt eBook/

The hollowness of the ceiling in front of us made several of us shudder, if this place was borrowed by someone with a heart, then the people in each of our rooms were actually equivalent to white rats locked in the same large space to the mysterious person, and they could freely shuttle between us without opening doors or passing through walls.

I stared at the dark hole for a long time, and guessed that maybe in the dark night when we were asleep, a stranger once opened the compartment of the ceiling and stared at us in our sleep.

A layer of goosebumps rose up and down his body.

Knowing my temper, my grandmother grabbed my arm and said, "Don't let me think about climbing in and seeing." ”

Shaking my head, I said to Xia Xia and Dabai: "You guys are here with grandma, I'll go and call Chen Wei and them over to see what the situation is." ”

But before I could get to the door, I remembered the two sentences that Chen Wei whispered to me before I came back, Chen Wei rarely repeated the same sentence in a row, and since he repeated it this time, it proved that he must have deliberately wanted to arouse my vigilance.

Seeing that I stopped, Da Bai asked from behind him, "What do you want?" So out of mind? ”

After staring back at my grandmother for a while, I went back to my bed and put the ceiling back in place.

Then he said to them: "Don't sleep tonight, don't take off your clothes, let's pin the dagger on our bodies, and I will sleep with my grandmother." ”

Hearing this, the three grandmothers looked at each other strangely, and Xia Xia asked suspiciously, "Why??" All of a sudden, we don't quite understand. ”

I sorted out my thoughts and then spoke: "It's not why, just in case, because I just suddenly remembered something, so I think maybe Chen Wei already knew about the ceiling in advance, since he didn't tell me directly, he must be afraid of startling the snake, and let Chen Wei be so cautious, it proves that the other party is not simple, if I rashly run over and ask Chen Wei without a head, wouldn't it be equivalent to exposing us all?" Moreover, Chen Wei may not answer anything at all in order to cover up. eBook download txt free download .75txt."

After finishing speaking, Xia Xia and Da Bai looked at each other for a while, and both of them silently pinned the dagger, but grandma still didn't understand: "We haven't done anything bad, why do we have to be so careful?" Why is it that everyone is looking at us unpleasantly? ”

Waving his hand, Dabai explained: "Grandma, don't you understand, now the way of the world has long changed, it's not that you obey the traffic rules, you have love, you just haven't done bad things, the reason why bad things are called bad things, that's because you don't provoke it, it will take the initiative to come to you, if what He Mo said just now is right, it can only be said that our storage zài just influenced who to do things." Maybe we ourselves are the target of their attacks, so now, Chen Wei, who originally wanted to worry about nothing, forced them all to secretly investigate these things. ”

I have to say that although Da Bai looks at Hang'er Lang on weekdays, sometimes many things can be understood at a glance, such as saying so much, although it is a comfort to her grandmother, but no one has ever told her, she quickly analyzed it herself.

After a long time, Da Bai seemed to be unable to hold back, and finally asked me: "He Mo, you tell us the truth, what did Chen Wei tell you?" ”

After thinking about it for a while, I pushed the ceiling board again, and made sure that it was really empty and there was no one on it, and then I replied: "He just told me not to sleep soundly tonight." ”

"Ah" Xia Xia screamed softly, and then said a little nervously, "What do you mean by this?" Why can't you fall asleep? Weird and scary. ”

After thinking about it for a while, my grandmother said, "Is that kid almost aware of who the murderer is behind the scenes?" ”

Da Bai nodded: "I guess that's the case, otherwise, Chen Wei would never have suddenly reminded He Mo not to sleep at night." ”

After thinking for a while, I slapped my thigh and said, "Let's all cheer up at night and see what happens!" ”

After dinner, before we went back to the room, we heard the crew outside shouting and I didn't know who was there, it's repaired! reads;！！

Then someone ran to the control room to find the captain, and after an hour and a half, the boat left the dock and continued its journey through the river.

The captain never showed up again.

All of us stood on the deck at sunset, looking at the surrounding crowds chatting in whispers, or coming and going crews, or solemn sù, or laughing, the atmosphere was rare in harmony.

But this will look at everyone's faces being red by hope, and there is a strong feeling of calm before the storm in my heart.

I don't know anything about ships, so Chen Yuan and a few people asked the crew why the ship couldn't move a few days ago, and they didn't understand it and they had something hidden in their hearts, so they simply stopped listening, reflexively lay on the railing, and continued to silently look at the people coming and going, secretly guessing in their hearts which one was the real culprit behind the scenes.

But putting these aside, there are a few questions that I still haven't figured out, for example, whether the four people died at the hands of one person or the same few people, the first two people died in the same way, and the corpses were ruined, but the last Xiao Qi and the captain's son who was hung on the shelf are inevitably confused.

Think about it carefully, he died in the toilet in the middle of the night, if it is analyzed according to common sense, since the murderer chose to kill him in that public place, this is obviously different from the previous two, if he is killed in the deceased's room, as long as he is guaranteed not to make any huge movements, he will not be discovered by others, but it is different in the toilet, so Xiao Qi's death, I thought about it for a long time and still felt that it might be that he was unlucky and happened to bump into something that should not be seen, so he was killed.

And the captain's son, his death is the strangest, he was hung before he died, that is, the murderer was not afraid of trouble after injuring him, and hung him on the shelf.

When these questions come together, the biggest question arises, that is, what is the reason why the mysterious man wants to kill so many people in such a few days?

The first two who died were people in Scarface's team, and we don't know about their internal situation and can barely understand it as a vendetta of contradictions within them, but Xiao Qi and the captain's son are absolutely right outsiders to them, if Xiao Qi is unlucky, then what is the captain's son???

When I thought of this, I looked up at the second floor of the ship, we had not entered it once since we got on the ship, at first I thought that the crew lived on the second floor, but later I found that they all lived under the cabin, and the second floor was completely empty.

Maybe you can go into the second floor and take a look, and you can find some clues.

People have an innate sense of perseverance to get to the bottom of things.

It's just that in the acquired life, some people's persistence is polished and peaceful by life, while most people retain it.

This will already have an idea in his head, and he can't wait to go to the second floor to see the situation inside.

But there were so many people on the deck below that it wasn't a good time to go up at all.

Besides, looking at what Chen Wei meant, it seems that he is going to do something tonight, will I cause him any trouble if I rush to the second floor like this? ?

Everyone finally settled down from the excitement of the ship setting off again, and went back to their rooms to get ready to rest.

After I followed Da Bai Xia Xia back to the room, my grandmother had already lay down, but she didn't fall asleep, and it is estimated that it is impossible for any of us to fall asleep tonight.

Time passed minute by minute, and the room was unusually quiet, which was rare before, and almost a pin could be heard.

Finally, it was time to turn off the lights, and after the light bulb snapped out, the surroundings fell into a dead silence of darkness and silence.

My grandmother grabbed my hand, she must have been a little nervous, as if she knew what danger was coming, so she wanted to catch me first, lest something happen and I would rush out suddenly.

Da Bai and Xia Xia also sat beside me, holding their breath and concentrating, holding the dagger in their hands and breaking out a layer of sticky sweat.

Nearly half an hour passed like this, and there seemed to be a faint sound of footsteps on the second floor.

I immediately paid all my attention to the subtle sound upstairs, and after listening carefully, I couldn't tell whether it was auditory hallucinations or reality, and gently poked Dabai's arm and asked, "Is there a footstep of someone upstairs?" ”

Da Bai was also tilting his head to listen carefully to the movement upstairs, and nodded slightly when he heard the words: "Well, it's very light." ”

Xia Xia raised her hand slightly: "Don't speak!" More than one person! ”
