Of course, they could not reveal the details of the case to a person who was suspected, and Qiu Xuan could probably only deduce from the sporadic words that the police had encountered an unprecedented bottleneck in confirming the identity of the body.

The details of the tissue in the charred corpse could not be mentioned, and the forensic team could only pull out the tissues of the corpse from the melted cake little by little, and then spend a huge amount of time piecing together and extracting them one by one.

The amount of work is huge, and the most important thing is that they haven't received any recent reports of missing people. The identity of the corpse does not match, and it seems that the only point that seems to be related is at that banquet.

Qin Jiuyuan had just walked out to answer a phone call, and when he came back, the expression on his face was a little more restrained. He stood in front of Qiu Xuan, looking down with his eyelids down, behind him were several criminal policemen with the same expressionless faces, and the scene looked extremely oppressive for a while.

"I wanted to invite you to the conference room for a good chat, but now I don't need to." He said, "Just now, the little fat man admitted it to himself. He said he saw you having a fight with someone last night, and from your conversation, it seems that you knew that there would be a corpse in the cake that was served later. ”

Qiu Xuan paused for a moment.

"Really? But I didn't have a conflict with anyone yesterday, and I didn't know there was a corpse in the cake, so how could I know about such a thing? ”

"Little girl."

The captain suddenly moved closer, leaning forward, his inquiring gaze firmly fixed on the other party. "Thinking that you are a first-time offender, I can give you another chance to admit - you must know that with the testimony of that little fat man, whether you admit it or continue to bite the bullet, your suspicion is already certain. However, if you voluntarily admit your mistake and actively cooperate with the case, then I guarantee that you will get some lenient punishment for the final verdict. ”

It's kind of like that.

Qiu Xuan recalled her confrontation with the fat man last night, not to mention that the fat man spent so much effort pinching this handle to threaten her until now, how could he suddenly tell the police before the critical time. What's more, taking a step back, Qiu Xuan really doesn't know who "Afu" went to see that night and why she hung herself upside down in the stands.

And the prisoner's dilemma, she's familiar with this.

"I really don't know." Qiu Xuan shook her head very sincerely, "I haven't seen any suspicious people, and I don't know why the fat man said that." Maybe it's because he thinks I'm not happy and wants to deliberately find a reason to slander me, that's what I know, if you need my help elsewhere, you can come back to me. ”

There seemed to be a policeman behind Qin Jiuyuan who whispered softly, but the man led by him didn't have any ups and downs, just straightened up, deliberately lowered his voice and asked again: "Have you really decided to resist to the end?" I've given you a chance, is it really worth it to do this to cover up another suspect? You're just starting your life, and you don't want to spend the rest of your life in prison. ”

Qiu Xuan: Coincidentally, I'm familiar with this too.

"I really don't know."

"Okay." Qin Jiuyuan sighed lightly and didn't force it, but his fingers clicked something on the tablet underneath. He slammed the notebook shut and leaned sideways to make way for Qiu Xuan to make way for an empty seat. "Excuse me, come with us."

Qiu Xuan glanced at him and walked up to follow. To be honest, the tentative meaning in Qin Jiuyuan's previous words was really too obvious, and he didn't even say who the person who had a conflict with "Afu" in the stands that night, and the specific words of the fat man's so-called "hearing" their conversation.

So Qiu Xuan guessed that they should know that there was a certain balance and threat relationship between the fat man and himself, but after asking the fat man to no avail, he simply made up an excuse to let himself admit it. It's just that I didn't expect that these teenagers who seem to be young and will tell the truth when they are scared logically have a better mentality than the other.

She followed several police officers and watched as several people turned and walked into the elevator.

Suddenly, Qiu Xuan's nerves seemed to be tense for a moment, as if there was a string in her head that was tense and flicked. She was one step ahead of her thoughts, and took the lead in pulling the sleeves of Qin Jiuyuan, who had already stepped into the elevator with her feet, and the latter turned around in surprise and didn't say anything, only to hear a loud bang, and the cable hanging above the elevator actually broke together.

Qiu Xuan's pupils constricted, and she watched as the strength of her subordinates suddenly lost their fulcrum and fell, and before she even had time to react, she actually stepped into the falling elevator hall by squeezing the last gap in the loud shouts of the police officers behind.

"You're crazy?!!!"

The man who was pulled by her sleeve was stunned for a moment, and then reacted quickly, pulling the other party's wrist with his backhand so that his back was tightly pressed against the inner wall of the elevator. "What are you thinking? Yes! Is it not clear in the brain?! ”

"Don't scold, don't scold."

They looked like they were playing with some kind of jumping machine, and the entire elevator compartment echoed for a long time with the terrible screams of the trainee police officer. Qiu Xuan barely bent her knees in a standing position, and with her hand stretching out, she pulled the other party over and stood against the wall.

"I don't know why...... I always felt that this scene was familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere. ”

But instead of standing in the elevator, she stood above it, and saw someone with her own eyes, falling with the falling elevator.

"What? Déjà vu isn't enough, you have to experience it yourself? ”

Qin Jiuyuan was so angry that he began to speak with an accent, Qiu Xuan glanced at him inside the turbulent elevator, closed his eyes for a moment, and suddenly reached out and pulled down the buckle at the top of the elevator compartment.

The entire top layer partition was lifted because it couldn't bear the pressure, Qiu Xuan squinted and suddenly took out an ordinary gun that did not exceed the forbidden level, and stuffed it into Qin Jiuyuan's hand.

"The rope buckle above, I saw ......"

Before she could finish her sentence, there was a few bangs on her side in the next second. The bullet suddenly broke the support frame that connected the elevator at the other end, and the steel cable bounced off because of the loss of force, like a model of a balanced model at the other end, and the elevator at the other end suddenly rose, and the fall of the inner room on which their feet seemed to slow down a few points.

Several of the steel cables were destroyed in the same way, and with a violent shaking, the elevator compartment collided back and forth on the walls on both sides. Someone rushed towards Qiu Xuan almost without pause, she raised her eyes in the person's body temperature, and saw a pair of strange faces with strange pupils in the elevator above the top of the elevator that had been lifted, in the elevator of the black hole, looking at them expressionlessly.

The face quickly shrank back, but Qiu Xuan still barely saw a little. It turned out to be not a human face, but a face with a mask pattern, and a strange animal depicted on it, with long feathers with a pointed beak and a pair of eerily large eyes.

The elevator gradually decreased and stopped under the inertia of the back and forth collision, and several police officers were temporarily unconscious due to the violent impact, but it should not be very serious, at least their chests were still rising and falling faintly at the moment.

"Tsk, you still say that I, in a similar situation, you will still do this?"

Qiu Xuan sighed, stretched out his hand and turned over the person who was firmly surrounding his entire body. Qin Jiuyuan's eyes were tightly closed, a few blood lines on his forehead broke and some blood flowed, and everything else was fine, but it might be a slight concussion.

She sat in the slightly swaying elevator with someone in her arms for a while, closed her eyes, and her mind was full of the strange mask from before.

The mask felt familiar to her, a bit like the "Griffin" mask Isaac had seen before—though she refused to admit that the stitched pattern was a griffin.

If I hadn't known Isaac's explanation in advance, it would have been a bit like seeing the mask for the first time based on my own subjective feelings...... Owl.

Owl?

Qiu Xuan opened her eyes suddenly, and almost the moment her eyes met in the hole in her memory, she remembered the lyrics in the nursery rhyme.

There, the "owl" was represented as a gravedigger, and using its chisel and shovel, it dug the grave for the robin.

So, the man with the owl mask on his head, that is, Isaac, is trying to use the elevator accident to prepare a tomb for the robin?

But none of the people present symbolized the identity of the "robin". It would be a bit inexplicable if Isaac simply wanted to kill one of them, and planned all of this with great fanfare.

Unless Isaac was the murderer, he wanted to stop the police from continuing the investigation, so he killed the killer.

In this way, Isaac is both an "owl" and a "sparrow."

The main line they were looking for was Isaac...... Is that right?

But it's too easy, and it's not at all the level that a normal testing ground should have. And the plot of the main line is gradually becoming clear, which is very unfavorable for Qiu Xuan, after all, according to the deer-headed man who is now unidentified, he is a betrayer, and when the other peers complete the main line and get out, his life will also come to an end.

Regardless of whether the previous discussion with Ah Guang was correct or not, Qiu Xuan always had to leave a way back for herself.

A few minutes later, the rescue team came up with the remaining police officers.

Their current elevator hall is stuck in the middle of the third and fourth floors, which is a dangerous height. If Qin Jiuyuan's shots at that time had been a little hesitant, their ending would have been that the corpses of several people were huddled together, you have me, I have you.

People choose to concentrate on the location of the fourth floor for rescue, because the location of their elevator card is too extreme, and the fourth floor is relatively large. So at this time, Qiu Xuan, the only one in the elevator who was still conscious, had to stand on tiptoe and look up at the people on the floor.

One of the officers was calming her down, and was repeating the condition of the people inside.

Qiu Xuan patiently responded one by one, and at this time, the people of the property hurriedly ran to say that the control hub of the elevator center was out of control, and they had no way to make the elevator land for the time being, so they had to keep it as it was for the time being and did not dare to move.

"In this case, we'll pull you out first."

A member of the rescue team said, "I've seen it, and while the support cables above are still strong, we can get one out of the way quickly, don't delay any longer." Otherwise, those who have been hesitating will be pushed in a more dangerous direction. ”

Qiu Xuan didn't have any problems, but he was a little wary when he looked at the gap that only half of the upper side was exposed. The people of this rescue team don't know if it's professional, in the case of this kind of elevator stuck on the half floor, if people climb out of the process of the elevator suddenly rises or falls, it's not a joke.

She thought for a moment and tiptoed upwards to signal that she was ready.

Several people professionally took out two jacks to support between the gap between the half exposed and the ground, set up a position, and nodded to her.

Qiu Xuan estimated the opening and closing distance of the gap above her head, and at this moment, she couldn't run and help jump up, for fear that any slight movement at this moment would make the already crumbling elevator more dangerous. She carefully moved it up little by little, but fortunately, the gap between the elevator and the wall was open to her, and as for Qin Jiuyuan in the elevator, including a few older criminal policemen, it was estimated that it was enough.

Qiu Xuan's front half of her body has gone out smoothly so far, and at this moment, her whole waist is stuck in the gap of the elevator and is still moving out, which can be said to be a very thrilling angle. After all, according to the bridge in a normal horror movie, the next second is the steel cable breaking and the elevator falling, and then only half of her body is left on the ground, and the lower half is directly crushed by the waist.

She scolded herself in her heart for not wanting a crow's mouth, but then she felt a huge force, and someone pulled her up from the suspended gap, several times faster than herself. Qiu Xuan raised his eyes and saw a face wearing an oversized cotton mask, the chainsaw man's narrow eyes were exposed outside the mask, and he was standing in the line of security personnel in a black uniform, one hand pulling at the strap around his waist.

"Thank you."

Qiu Xuan stood still, and immediately turned his head to look at the half-stuck elevator.

"There are still a few people who are still alive, but now they can't wake up for the time being, and the only two who are conscious have multiple fractures on their bodies, and there is no way to climb up on their own. So we still have to go down a few people, or find a way to make the gap a little bigger. ”

"You can go down from the top."

A police officer looked anxiously for a long time, "The top floor of the elevator seems to have been lifted, and there is a gap above, and the security is relatively high from there." ”

"But it's not easy to operate, don't you see? The steel cables in this layer have been somewhat aged, and with the previous damage and instability, everyone will fall if they are not careful. ”

"But this is the only way, the more it drags on, the more uncertain the situation becomes, and there is no time for us to think carefully about what to do."
