Bai Ye tried to push the middle door twice, but this door should have latches on both sides, and the opposite side was locked and could not be pushed open.

He turned around and walked in the direction of the hallway, ready to try to pass through the door in the hallway.

When I opened the door and went out, there was no light in the corridor outside, and the lightning flashed through the window at the end.

A damp chill filled the corridor, and Bai Ye could smell a trace of fishy smell in the air.

On the right side of the corridor are three glass windows, and the guest rooms are uniformly arranged on the left side of the corridor, counting from the front to the back, Bai Ye is arranged in the first room, Professor Derby is in the second room in the middle, and the last room is inhabited by the strange servant who smells of fish.

If you go straight down the corridor to the end, turn right and you will cross a covered bridge of about ten meters, and the master bedroom of the head of the family, Valred Izezer, is located in a spired house on the opposite side of the bridge.

"Since there is a middle door between the guest rooms and the guest rooms, the rooms in the middle should be interconnected?"

Bai Ye thought so in his heart while leaning against the wall and groping for the door of the middle guest room.

The distance between the doors of the two guest rooms was less than ten meters, and he quickly came to the door of the middle room.

"Huh? The door doesn't close? ”

The door of the guest room is in a state of concealment, revealing a dark gap, there is no light in the room, it seems that the curtains are also tightly drawn, and there is no internal situation through the crack in the door.

Bai Ye's heart was already full of questions, and he was about to push the door to see what was going on inside.

But at this time, there was a lightning bolt in the sky, and the electric light illuminated the entire corridor in a miserable white, instinctively, Bai Ye's eyes seemed to catch a figure standing at the end of the corridor.

He immediately turned his head to look in that direction, but alas...... The light of the lightning was very brief, and it was dark again, and he didn't happen to be able to get a good eye out of the situation at the end of the hallway.

Then, a huge thunderclap seemed to explode on the ceiling, making people's hearts beat tight.

"Someone was peeking at me not far away!"

Bai Ye maintained a cautious posture at this time, and the sharpness of his senses had been improved, and he had just clearly captured the feeling of being watched.

"Who could it be? What does he want to do? ”

Judging by the distance and location, it is very likely that the fishy servant lives on the other side of the covered bridge......

"Let's check what's going on in Professor Derby's room first."

……

Bai Ye pushed open the hidden door, and before anyone entered, a strange smell came to his nose.

He made a slight discernment, and found that the smell was mixed with a rather obvious fishy smell, and there was also a faint smell of blood. The reason why it smells strange is because of the mixture of these two temperatures.

"Looks like the servant came in here."

The fishy smell alone is enough to illustrate this.

Bai Ye pushed the door of the room open to the maximum, slightly improving the darkness in the room.

One of the windows in the corridor was facing the door of the middle room, and at this time, lightning happened to pass outside, and the electric light once again provided Bai Ye with a very brief illumination.

The room seemed to be flickered by the flash on the mobile phone, although the illumination range was very limited, but Bai Ye still clearly saw the big bed in the corner of the room, the elderly Professor Edward Derby was lying on the bed in a sideways position, his eyes were wide open, his mouth was slightly open, and his expression showed a frightened look.

"Dead? Murdered? ”

After the lightning's lighting effect faded, he fumbled around the dark room from memory, grabbed a box of matches on a desk in front of the window, and used the match to light a portable kerosene lamp next to it.

The room finally had some lighting that wasn't too bright.

The size of this room is slightly larger than Bai Ye's room, and there is not much difference in terms of furnishings, the only difference is ...... There is an intermediate door open on the left and right walls of the room.

Professor Edward Derby leaned on his side, half-lying on the large bed, with one foot exposed outside the bed.

There was a clear knife hole in his heart, blood staining the shirt around him red, and his hands were in a position of holding his chest, as if he was trying to stop the bleeding after being hurt.

But the murderer's knife position was very deadly, and he lost all the possibility of survival with one knife.

Bai Ye is not a police detective or detective in reality, and his ability to solve the crime scene is very limited.

He looked around, but found no murder weapon, and no statue of the bottle that Professor Derby had begged for from him.

"The murderer killed the man to seize the sculpture?"

But......

When Bai Ye handed over the sculpture to the professor, he was the only one in the professor's room, and the doors of the other two rooms were also closed, so the murderer should not know that the professor had a bottle of sculpture in his hand.

"The murderer's motive was not for the sculpture, so taking the sculpture may have been his temporary idea."

Unless, of course, there are other people hiding in the big house, the murderer is only among the three of them - if Valred's crazy wife is counted.

"The most suspicious is the servant."

The smell of fish in the room directly pulled the servant's suspicion to the highest value, and the servant's room was next door to the professor's room, and there was a middle door between the two rooms.

"Middle door?!"

Bai Ye thought of something, got up and walked over to check the middle door leading to the servant's room.

"Someone pulled out the latch here, which means that this door has been opened."

"The servant knocked on the middle door, killed someone and took the sculpture, and then went back to his room through the middle door, and then locked the door from the other side?"

He cautiously pressed his ear to the door and listened for a while, noticing that there was no sound in the next room.

Stretched out his hand and pushed the middle door, and the door was actually pushed by him!

……

"By the way, if you return to your room the same way after the killing, then there is no need to open the door to the corridor in the professor's room, right?"

Wouldn't it be better to turn this room into a secret room that could only be accessed from the servant's room than to leave an entrance and exit for Bai Ye to come in and investigate?

Could it be that this servant is still trying to clear his name?

Come on, there are only three people in this house, and the other two are less suspicious than the servant, and they can also make alibi to each other, and the servant's practice is completely redundant.

Unless......

"The servant came from his room to the professor's room through the middle door, killed someone, took the sculpture, and left through the door that led to the hallway."

There were only two directions outside the hallway, and he went either left or right when he went out.

Bai Ye remembered that just before entering the door, he had caught a glimpse of a figure standing at the end of the left end of the corridor out of the corner of his eye.

"There's no mistake, that figure should be the murderer!"
