261. The murderer is in the midst of them
What appeared in Chu Mufeng's field of vision at this moment was everyone on the island.
When they came in and saw Chu Wuyuan who was hanged, they all showed extremely shocked expressions.
Some of them opened their mouths wide and couldn't speak, some covered their mouths and trembled, some gritted their teeth and cursed the murderer, and some were trembling with fear.
In any case, none of them were indifferent, and they all tried their best to show their hatred of the same enemy.
Perform!
Someone is definitely acting!
Chu Mufeng knew that in the absence of outsiders coming to Crescent Island, the perpetrators were definitely hiding among this group of people.
Who wouldn't be able to act?
But there are not many people who perform like the perpetrator without flaws, and they need to be extra careful.
All Chu Mufeng had to do was to catch this murderous performer.
After what seemed like a long period of exclamation and indignation, Huang Junsheng suddenly spoke, and his words quickly broke the atmosphere of low pressure.
"Chu Wuyuan, can't you think about committing suicide?"
"Suicide? You say he committed suicide? Do you have any proof? Chu Mufeng's eyes looked over like a torch.
"Isn't it suicide?"
Huang Junsheng pointed to Chu Wuyuan, who was hanged, and his deep voice echoed in the church, even if the moonlight outside could be projected in, even if someone had already lit an oil lamp, the atmosphere here was still very depressing.
"This should be obvious, right? Chu Wuyuan hanged himself because he was afraid! Didn't he say that Chen Jianghe would come to him for revenge, in my opinion, Zhao Dapeng should die, and Sun Xiaolong will also be targeted, but the most damned should be Chu Wuyuan! He must have been scared, and there was a ghost in his heart, so he committed suicide. β
"Huang Junsheng, what do you say!"
When Sun Xiaolong in the crowd heard this, he glared fiercely and shouted, "Who do you say will be targeted?" β
"That's you! Could it be that we can't do it? β
Huang Junsheng looked back at Sun Xiaolong's gaze without fear, it has come to this point, do you still think that we will be afraid of you? Besides, Lao Tzu has never been afraid of you.
"Sun Xiaolong, do you think that the things you did to Chen Jianghe back then were really secret, and no one knew about them? You can't be so naΓ―ve, can you? β
"You ......" Sun Xiaolong stopped talking again, his face embarrassed.
"Hehe, it seems that you are also weak-hearted, right? Just because we don't say it doesn't mean we don't know anything, you have to understand that whoever it was did back then would be a disaster. β
"We're all classmates, how can you do that? How dare you do that? You and Zhao Dapeng are two big bastards. β
"As for Chu Wuyuan is not a good bird, I said that he committed suicide, it is completely reasonable, who let him betray Chen Jianghe's friendship back then, it wasn't his cowardice and shamelessness, Chen Jianghe would be humiliated like that by you?"
"He's a complete villain, a coward who only listens to you and does things, isn't he?" Huang Junsheng scolded in a fierce voice.
Now he looks like a messenger of justice, generously stating his grievances and indignation.
"You...... You are talking nonsense! β
Sun Xiaolong wanted to quibble, but he didn't know how to argue when the words came to his lips.
What happened back then was indeed that they did something wrong, and it can't be said that they don't admit it now, right? The people here are all classmates from the past, and many of them are more or less aware of what happened back then, and there is no point in quibbling.
"You know if I'm talking nonsense, and we big guys know it. Sun Xiaolong, don't you think it's boring to talk about this now? Zhao Dapeng was strangled to death! Chu Wuyuan hanged himself now, who do you say will be next? β
"That's you!" Huang Junsheng raised his hand and pointed at it.
Sun Xiaolong's face turned as white as paper in an instant.
"Chu Wuyuan didn't commit suicide!"
After hearing this, Chu Mufeng raised his arm, interrupted the argument, and said calmly: "Chu Wuyuan was murdered, just like Zhao Dapeng!" β
"Why? How can you be sure that he was killed, not by suicide? Huang Junsheng asked rhetorically with some skepticism.
"Height!"
Chu Mufeng pointed to the beam, and said in an affirmative tone: "Don't you think so?" The height here must be at least six meters, so can any of you commit suicide at a height of six meters? β
"Unless there's a ladder to climb up, but what about the ladder? There is no ladder here, you can't say that Chu Wuyuan took the ladder away after committing suicide, right? β
Well, that's true.
Even Huang Junsheng has no way to refute this.
He just thought that it was suicide, but he didn't think that this so-called suicide was not established at all, and he scratched his head with puzzlement after hearing Chu Mufeng's words.
"You're right, you have to use a ladder to get up so high! What about ladders? β
"Yes, that's a very good question!"
Chu Mufeng glanced around, then spread his hands outwards and said, "You have to use a ladder for this matter, but what about a ladder?" You didn't see the ladder, did you? I don't see it either. β
What does this mean? It is explained that after the murder killed Chu Wuyuan, the rope was put around his neck, and then the body was hoisted onto the beam. The murderer climbed the ladder to the same height as the corpse, and then tied the other end of the rope around the corpse's neck. β
"But why did he do that?" Huang Junsheng lowered his head and asked in a trembling voice.
"I want to know the answer too!"
Chu Mufeng recalled the scene when Zhao Dapeng was killed, then looked at Chu Wuyuan, who was hanged, took a deep breath, and said very seriously.
"One thing I can be sure of now is that Zhao Dapeng was strangled to death that night, but he had actually been killed. Just like Chu Wuyuan tonight, he was also killed first before his body was moved here. To put it simply, both of them were killed twice by the perpetrators! β
"Second killing?"
Yue Tong's voice trembled a little and said, "How much does this murderer have to hate Zhao Dapeng and Chu Wuyuan to do this?" Can't kill it once, and kill it again? β
"Could it really be that Chen Jianghe is here to take revenge?" Jiang Duxue grabbed Yue Tong's arm tightly and asked in horror.
Croak.
At the moment when Jiang Duxue's words landed, the frogs outside the window suddenly began to bark, and in this solemn atmosphere, this kind of cry suddenly sounded, which made people feel creepy.
Jiang Duxue even subconsciously grabbed Yue Tong's arm, her lips trembling.
"When can we go? I don't want to stay here anymore. It's so scary here, Yue Tong, let's leave quickly, shall we? Jiang Duxue was as weak and helpless as a frightened quail.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, we can leave tomorrow!" Yue Tong said comfortingly.
"Leave?"
When Sun Xiaolong heard this, he didn't do it on the spot, and roared angrily, "Who let you leave?" I tell you, no one is allowed to leave until these two murders are investigated. Detective Chu, you said yes, right? β
"Yes!"
Although Sun Xiaolong was a bastard, on this issue, Chu Mufeng's attitude was the same as his.
Sun Xiaolong was afraid of becoming the third deceased, and Chu Mufeng wanted to catch the murderer behind the scenes.
"Until the matter is investigated, no one is allowed to leave Crescent Island! I don't think you want to leave like that, because in that case, you'll let the real murderer escape. β
"And do you dare to say that as long as you get out of here, you are safe? If you don't catch this murderer, there's a good chance he'll have his sights on each of you. At that point, you won't even have a chance to regret it. β
This last statement is very inflammatory.
Could it be that they will all be targeted?
"Detective Chu, aren't you a detective? Then you can solve the case quickly! Jiang Duxue said pleadingly.
"Don't worry, since I'm here and encounter this case, I will definitely take care of it!"
Chu Mufeng's eyes swept across everyone's faces, and he said unhurriedly: "I will find out who the murderer is!" And before I can do that, I need your cooperation. β
"This time, I hope you will answer all the questions I asked carefully and carefully, and do not hide anything, because this is responsible for your life and can also clear your suspicions."
"We will!" Everyone chimed in.
"Good!"
Chu Mufeng turned his head to look at Chu Wuyuan, who was hanging, and said with a slight frown: "Before I start asking, can we put Chu Wuyuan's body down first?" It's not a problem for him to hang like this all the time. β
"I'm coming!"
Huang Junsheng volunteered to start climbing, but unfortunately he didn't climb far before he went up, so he fell off the wall with a bang, and Gu Zijun hurriedly went over to support him.
"You can't do it without a ladder, how can we climb such a smooth wall with our hands and legs? That's a six-meter-high beam! Gu Zijun turned his head and said.
"Detective Chu!"
Sun Da'an mustered up the courage to step forward at this time, looked at Chu Mufeng and said, "I think we should do this first, right?" If Chu Wuyuan is moved, wouldn't it be destroying the evidence at the scene? β
"Isn't the Ping An coming over tomorrow? When the time comes, we will be able to contact the outside world, and it will not be too late for him to put it down at that time. β
"Yes, we can go find the ladder first, and then talk about it when we find the ladder." Gan Susu said in a voice.
"I think compared to letting go of Chu Wuyuan, let's hurry up and find the murderer!"
Sun Xiaolong glanced at Chu Wuyuan, who was hanging, and became more and more frightened in his heart, standing in front of Chu Mufeng, and said in a pleading tone: "Detective Chu, can we catch the murderer in another place?" I always feel like I'm panicking here. β
"Then go to the restaurant."
Chu Mufeng agreed to this request after thinking about it.
No way, what if you don't do it?
The beams of the church were six meters high, and without a ladder, it was impossible for Chu Mufeng to put Chu Wuyuan down. He's a bit skilled, but that doesn't mean he can fly.
What's more, just like Sun Da'an said, if you toss indiscriminately, it will destroy the scene.
In this case, let's go to the murderer first, this is the most important.
When everyone walked out, Chu Mufeng stood at the door and glanced back at Chu Wuyuan's corpse with a resolute look in his eyes.
"Don't worry, I'll find the murderer for you."
