Chapter 241: The Successor (6)
Everyone nodded and fell silent. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
When encountering this kind of thing, you can still stay unflustered and calm. Zhong Xiutian thought silently.
But then he shouldn't be able to keep his composure, Su Ming knows that things will never end like this, otherwise the level of this game will not be A+.
With such a small number of A+, the actual difficulty may be comparable to Vice City.
Su Ming also saw the scene of death just now, the scene of death was very strange, first of all, the way of death was very strange, the head was in a different place, the head and body were directly separated, the body was still sitting on a chair, and the head fell on the floor in front of the desk, and it seemed that it had rolled some distance from the trajectory of the bloodstains.
The cut in the neck is very smooth, as if it has been split in two by a very sharp blade.
And the most shocking thing is not this, but this is a secret room, and the outside door is locked, which is the most surprising.
According to what the housekeeper said, the only room that ******** could not be opened was Lin Zheng.
However, there are only two possibilities for a person to die in a closed room, the first is suicide and the second is murder.
This common sense is simply equivalent to nonsense, and in the second type of murder, the murderer generally has only one starting point, that is, to commit suicide by pretending to be a deceased.
But this time the event was quite magical.
Because the deceased was clearly not a suicide.
The murderer killed someone and deliberately disguised himself as suicide, which was like a provocation to the Lin family.
Su Ming got up late and closed the door, and he was originally the old rival of the Lin family's enterprise, but when he appeared, it was still an important heir ceremony, so it was natural and expected to be suspected.
Su Ming sat on the sofa, not knowing what he was thinking, and Zhong Xiutian also sat beside Lin Hui, his eyes turning around in a low-key manner, looking around.
And the original protagonist, Lin Hui, the next successor of the Lin family, is now biting his lip and sitting on the sofa silently, his eyes are red, he should have cried, and now what fills his heart must only be anger and grief.
"That ......" Ye Ying, who was sitting next to Lin Hui, wanted to comfort, but the words of comfort couldn't be said in his mouth, for the current Lin Hui, these are all useless, and the current Lin Hui, no kind of words can comfort him.
Of course, this doesn't matter to Zhong Xiutian, as long as this kid doesn't die, it has nothing to do with him whether he is sad or happy.
Of course, the fact that the first person to die was Lin Zheng still surprised Zhong Xiutian.
In addition to this incident, the only thing that is probably most concerned is whether the police will come or not.
Zhong Xiutian thinks that the police will not come.
Just ten minutes later, Zhong Xiutian's prediction was verified.
The police did come, but because the torrential rain was so heavy that they encountered a landslide and caused a mudslide on the way here, the entire mountain road was blocked, and the police force was blocked on the road.
Zhong Xiutian's idea is very simple, if the police are there, they will not let them touch the corpse, and if they can't touch the corpse, it is equivalent to not being able to advance the plot, so Zhong Xiutian thinks that the police will never come.
What was expected in the eyes of players has become an ominous sign in the eyes of NPCs, and this dramatic development has made their already depressed mood even heavier.
"Everyone, please be patient, when the mountain road is taken care of, the police will come in, as long as the statement is recorded, everyone can leave, and in the meantime, I will protect everyone's safety."
The old butler seemed to see the worry in everyone's eyes, so he comforted him.
Su Ming sat in a remote corner of the hall, silently watching everyone's reactions, the corners of his mouth pursed tightly, and the unknown light in his narrow eyes flickered.
He was waiting, waiting for the second deceased to appear, now everyone was in a relatively balanced environment, only the appearance of the second victim would give them a sense of urgency that their lives were threatened, and at that time, all of them would unite to solve the case, and at that time, it was also the time for their own actions to begin.
Su Ming has an advantage that no other player has, and that is Echo!
As Su Ming thought, Eco seemed to be a bug in the toy box, out of the regular game slave.
This time when he entered the game, Echo followed him into the game.
Evidence that Echo was out of the control of the toy box was that Echo was not assigned any identity when she entered the game.
She sat beside her when she was sober, and the blonde waiter who was driving the car didn't have any impression of Ai Ke, only thinking that she was a friend of Young Master Mo.
At that time, Su Ming made a quick decision and got out of the car to let Echo hide in the trunk, so these NPCs and players did not know about Echo's existence, as long as this was properly used, Su Ming could make a perfect alibi for himself, and he could also make Echo do many, many things.
Of course, this is also a double-edged sword, if Aike is discovered, then there is no doubt that Su Ming can be regarded as a failure in the game, and he can't make up a reason for hiding a person anyway.
Su Ming looked up and looked at the pouring rain outside through the window, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, thinking of Aike curled up in the trunk.
"Young Master Yang! Young Master Yang! What happened to you! ā
Suddenly, the exclamation of the old butler was heard not far away, and the noisy voices of a group of people.
So fast?!
Su Ming sat up from the chair and rushed over.
Yang Feng covered his chest and struggled on the ground, he desperately probed his throat with his fingers, as if he wanted to induce vomiting, but what came out of vomiting was a large pool of blood, coughing, blood spurted out directly from his nose, Yang Feng's face was flushed, the whole person lost control and collapsed on the ground convulsions, slowly rolling his eyes.
And the old housekeeper seems to want to take first aid measures, but in this case, his **** compressions and artificial respiration are obviously not suitable.
Everyone just surrounded Yang Feng, looking at him twitching on the ground with shocked and panicked eyes, until Yang Feng didn't move in the end.
The second deceased was born, and Su Ming looked at Yang Feng on the ground, his brows furrowed even tighter.
The murder in front of everyone's eyes is really bold, and this kind of death seems to be poisoned to death.
"Dead again." Su Ming was the first to speak: "Butler, this place is no longer safe." ā
"This ...... This! The old housekeeper stared at Yang Feng's corpse on the ground and was speechless.
One moment he was still saying that he would ensure everyone's safety, and the next second someone died in front of everyone, what could he say? Can he still say it's safe here?
Naturally not, now he has nothing to say.
Su Ming glanced at everyone, looked at Yang Feng again, and said, "It is obvious that Young Master Yang was poisoned, and now that the corpse has begun to show all kinds of signs of poisoning, have you people close to him see what he ate or drank?" ā
The calmness shown by Su Ming made these people calm down a little, and the person who was sitting next to Yang Feng before recalled it, and then picked up a cup, and there were traces of coffee at the bottom of the cup, but although there was evidence, everyone did not verify its toxicity.
"It should have been poisoned." Someone said.
"But maybe it wasn't poisoned by this cup of coffee?" Another person raised the question.
The question of whether or not to be poisoned by this cup of coffee may seem dispensable, but it is actually a matter of importance.
If not, it's fine, but if so, it means that Yang Feng was poisoned by the person who made the coffee, or was poisoned and killed by the people present unknowingly.
"I made the coffee myself." The old butler said.
Su Ming hurriedly stepped forward: "Housekeeper, I don't think the person who makes the coffee must be a murderer, such a murderer is too brainless, and you don't look like such a person." ā
Most of the people thought the same thing in their hearts.
Zhong Xiutian watched from the sidelines, silently in his heart, in fact, he also wanted to say something, but it was obviously very okay to speak out as a minor, and maybe it would attract the attention of the murderer.
At this time, Qian Huan, who was standing on the side, rolled his eyes, and the inexplicable light in his beautiful eyes flowed, as if he had thought of something. I saw her take a step forward, her good-looking eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and her beautiful face climbed with a hint of fear: "I think it's better to wait for the police to come, but now it's really not safe here." ā
As soon as the words came out, all the guests nodded in agreement.
Someone immediately said goodbye, saying that they didn't want to stay in the villa even if they sat in the car and stayed in the rain, and after more than ten minutes, there were only a dozen people on the scene, and even many of those high school students returned to the bus.
Many more guests left the villa by car.
The mudslide blocked the way out, and they couldn't go back.
But they prefer to stay halfway than stay in this place.
Qian Huan's trick makes it good, the person who leaves the Lin family villa first can rule out the possibility of the player, because the rule of the game is that leaving the villa is regarded as a game failure.
Now it's possible that the only players are these people in the house.
"Anyway, I don't want to sit still, but I don't want to run away either, so I want to investigate, I'm not going to destroy the scene, okay?" Su Ming asked the housekeeper politely.
The butler hesitated and opened his mouth, but said nothing.
Seeing this, Su Ming added another sentence: "The murderer will not stop, we can't sit still." ā
The old butler raised his head suddenly, then sighed heavily, and lowered his head again: "Young Master Mo, please take care of yourself." ā
"Thank you."
Okay, so that's the go-ahead for the investigation.
Now that the investigation can be officially launched, and Su Ming's task can be regarded as officially launched, he wants to find the murderer and kill him, and he can't expose it, this task is not difficult. First of all, you can see how powerful the murderer is from the murderer's modus operandi, and Su Ming's task is to kill the murderer.
In addition to that, Su Ming realized from the beginning that something was wrong.
That is, this time the game does not indicate rewards and punishments.
Su Ming had never encountered this situation before, so he didn't know what the reason was, the only thing he could be sure of was that there was definitely something strange about it.
While thinking, Su Ming walked up the stairs, turned a corner, and came to Lin Zheng's study.
It was here that Lin Zheng died.
Slowly opening the door, Su Ming walked into the house, which was covered with a thick wool carpet, and it felt very comfortable to step on through leather shoes. It's fine to walk barefoot on this kind of carpet, but if it gets dirty in your shoes, it will be very troublesome to deal with, and sure enough, only the rich will do this.
Lin Zheng's head was still resting quietly on the ground, and his body was leaning back on the chair.
The wound on the neck is very smooth, and it looks like an extremely sharp blade cutting off, which is not something that a typical kitchen knife or long sword can do.
"There are no traces of a fight at the scene, it's interesting, there is not much movement, and you can still kill people so neatly."
Su Ming looked at the scene, muttering to himself while pacing slowly, looking at the surrounding situation.
"The doors and windows are locked, there are no gaps, there are gaps under the doors, and there are vents for the central air conditioner."
While speaking, Su Ming looked up at the air conditioner above his head.
I don't know if I don't look at it, but when I look at it, he really found something very important!
Bloodstain!
There was blood in the central air conditioner!
"Found it!"
Su Ming found the most important clue, it is impossible for the blood stains to fly so high, could it be that the vents of the central air conditioner are very large enough to allow people to enter and exit?
And then the murderer escaped after killing Lin Zheng through this passage?
But with such an obvious entrance, how did you manage to kill without fighting?
Su Ming fell into deep thought again, and then looked at the surrounding situation again, there must be more hidden clues, and now I can't figure it out, it's just that some clues haven't been found yet.
Su Ming looked around, but couldn't find any clues.
"It seems that the case will not be solved all of a sudden."
When a road didn't work, Su Mingka began to think differently.
Anyway, as long as you kill the killer, there is no clear rule on whether it is really inferred, that is to say, even if you kill someone casually, as long as you are blinded, the task will be completed.
In that case, it's better to just test the rest of the people, there are only a few anyway, and it shouldn't be too difficult if you lock the player's identity.
As soon as he thought of this, Su Ming turned around and left the room.
And when he left, the partition of the central air conditioner moved slightly, and then it was slowly removed, and the removal technique was very skillful, and there was no trace of it, and then, Echo's head poked out of the passage, she looked down, and then turned over and jumped down.
The petite figure is actually very agile and silent.
Echo's immature face hung with a solemnity that a child would not have, and she looked left and right, then walked to the corner and moved the chair away, revealing a small hook nailed behind the corner.
"In that case, the master should be able to understand."
Eco said this, then jumped in a flash, put his feet on the desk, climbed the edge of the vent with both hands, pulled up with both hands, and then twisted his body flexibly, got in, and closed the partition of the central air conditioner with his backhand......
At this time, Su Ming had already returned to the hall, and everyone was discussing the murderer's modus operandi. (To be continued.) )
