Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Beginning of the Puzzle

At the end of the hall of the Museum of the Dead, inside the room that looked like both a study and a council chamber. Everyone sat on the sofa, gathered around, and waited for the arrival of the last guest.

There were all kinds of drinks on the table surrounded by several sofas, Qin Jian picked up one of the cups of coffee and tasted it at random, to make up for the lack of good rest last night, and besides, if he was going to start the investigation tonight, he also needed a good spirit.

It was probably early to leave, Ling Yu and the other four didn't have time to eat breakfast, Shu Xiaoran picked up a piece of pastry from the table and put it in his mouth, Ling Yu kept sitting on the sofa and waiting, and so did Han Mo.

About a quarter of an hour or so passed. The door to this room was opened again, and the first person to walk in was the man in his twenties, Ling Qi, but there was a person behind him.

His figure looked a little dark behind the door frame, and it was difficult to see his full appearance, and judging from the silhouette of his dress, he should also be a woman. After Ling Qi walked in, the full picture of the woman's appearance gradually came into everyone's eyes.

The woman's skin looks relatively white and tender, there is a bit of redness on the immature face, which makes the whole face appear more ruddy, on the high and erect nose bridge, a pair of big eyes, with thick eyelashes, as if the two eyebrows that have been trimmed seem to be decorated again on the body of the whole beautiful angel. Her hair was flowing backwards, even from a distance, but she could still smell the fragrance emanating from her body and hair.

After the woman walked in completely, everyone found that her overall beauty was no less than that of Ling Yu and Shu Xiaoran who were present. It should be said that each has its own beauty.

Ling Qi stood in front of the woman, looking at Ling Yu and the others sitting on the sofa, Qin Jian put down the coffee in his hand, and then Ling Qi introduced the woman behind him to everyone:

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is our last guest at this event, Yin Fei'er!"

After Ling Qi finished speaking, the woman he called Yin Fei'er stepped forward, got closer to Ling Yu and the others, and said:

"Hello, my name is Yin Fei'er, a lover of deduction games."

After Yin Fei'er finished speaking, Ling Yu, Qin Jian and others stood up and saluted them back, and then Han Mo and his fiancée also introduced themselves to Yin Fei'er.

"Hello, my name is Ling Yu, a criminal police officer from Chengguang City."

"Hello, I'm Han Mo, this is my fiancée, Wenya." Han Mo said as he introduced his fiancée.

Yin Fei'er nodded and smiled at them, but among the many people, only one person did not stand up, that is, Zhang Xiaoqian, the mystery novelist who first came here, no one knows why Zhang Xiaoqian did not react to Yin Fei'er's arrival.

The reason may only be known to Zhang Xiaoqian himself.

Yin Fei'er then took a step forward, walked in front of Zhang Xiaoqian, stretched out a hand to look at Zhang Xiaoqian and said:

"Why doesn't the famous mystery novelist Zhang Xiaoqian give me face as a mystery game lover? Well? ”

When Yin Fei'er was talking to Zhang Xiaoqian, she kept a smile on her face, but she looked very reluctant, a bit telling Zhang Xiaoqian not to do this on this occasion.

It depends on the situation, and the two people seem to know each other.

After Yin Fei'er's words fell, Zhang Xiaoqian immediately got up, didn't pay attention to Yin Fei'er's outstretched hand, just stood up from the sofa, looked at Yin Fei'er, and said to her:

"I really didn't expect you to come here."

"yes, I didn't expect you to be here." After Zhang Xiaoqian finished speaking, Yin Fei'er also said.

"How do you know each other?"

Seeing that the meaning of the two seemed to have known each other before, Han Mo stepped forward and walked between the two people, wanting to ease the atmosphere of the scene.

"It's all in the past, so don't mention it." Yin Fei'er said.

"yes, let's let it pass." Zhang Xiaoqian also said. However, there is still a bit of disdain in the attitude.

On Ling Qi's side, all the guests have arrived, no matter what happened to Zhang Xiaoqian and Yin Fei'er before, but the purpose of everyone here today is the same, and Ling Qi is about to announce what they need to do in this museum.

After getting to know each other, everyone sat on the couch, and there was still a lot of food on the table, but no one touched it again. Ling Qi stood in the middle of several people, letting everyone hear what he was saying as clearly as possible.

There was no sound in the room, it was very quiet, and there was a clock on the wall that showed the time, it was a little past ten o'clock in the morning, and even the second hand could be heard.

"Okay guys, first of all, welcome to the Museum of the Dead, I'm the caretaker of this museum, my name is Ling Qi."

After speaking, Ling Qi bowed to them. Although the name Ling Qi was already known to those present.

Ling Qi continued, "I think you all received the invitation I sent earlier. ”

"Among you, there are criminal policemen, there are mystery game enthusiasts, and mystery novelists, all of whom are people with strong reasoning skills, and I think you must have learned about the Museum of the Dead in various ways through various ways in various ways."

"The Museum of the Dead is known to be like a cursed haunted house, during the day it is just a normal museum for guests to visit, but at night you may also know that there are always some strange noises coming from here, and at night it is closed to tourists."

"This museum of the dead is the residence of the famous painter Master Jin Xi at the end of the last century, and all his works and collections are stored in the museum, but please be careful."

Ling Qi deliberately emphasized this when he said this, and then continued, everyone was looking at him:

"The works and collections you see may not be all the collections and works of Master Jin Xi, I won't reveal anything specifically, you need to discover it in the process of exploration."

"I'm going to talk about the precautions here."

"There are detectives among you, and you must have heard of people sneaking in here at night and then disappearing, and you may want to use this opportunity to investigate this matter here, but I still have to warn you."

"First of all, you and I will definitely not stay here for a day, but a week, but you don't have to worry, I will arrange accommodation for you, but you must not go out at night, otherwise the museum and I will not be responsible for what happens, because I have already told you beforehand."

"The next is the most important part, that is, the purpose of inviting you to come this time, this museum can be said to be a work of art by Master Jin Xi, but how to appreciate it is your business, and you need to find it."

"Also, from the end of the last century to the present, there has always been a secret hidden in this museum, and this is what you need to do when you arrive, by exploring in the museum, find out a secret hidden in the museum from the end of the last century to the present."

"But be careful, you only have a week, and if you can't find this secret after a week, this secret will be hidden forever, and this secret is related to some events in the last century, so please use your reasoning skills to unravel the mystery."

After Ling Qi finished speaking, he sent a label to everyone, which indicated everyone's room number, and Han Mo and Wen Ya were one room number, Chu Ming and Shu Xiaoran were also the same, and the rest of the people were each person in one room.

It seems that Ling Qi had already understood these people before issuing the invitation.

After everyone got their room number, Ling Qi pointed in the direction of the other door in the room, and then everyone looked there. He probably meant that it was where their room was.

Ling Qi led the way in front, and the rest of the people followed him, after which Ling Qi walked to the door and pushed the door open, inside was a corridor, and there were many rooms on both sides of the corridor.

According to their room numbers, they each found their own rooms, and then walked in one by one, standing at the beginning of the corridor, only Ling Qi was alone!

And the adventure of solving this mystery is about to begin!

Seeing that everyone was standing at the door of their room with their room number, Ling Qi closed the door of the room they were in just now and exited the hallway.

As the door was closed, everyone felt that their surroundings were a little darker, perhaps because the room they were in was brighter, the light was stronger, and the windows were more transparent, or maybe it was because the light in the corridor was not very obvious.

Or everyone's psychological effect, there is a little nervousness in their hearts, they may be the first people to live here in addition to Jin Xi and the servants, during the day, maybe this is a very ordinary museum, but after night, who knows what will happen here.

It was almost noon, and several people in the hallway walked into their rooms almost at the same time, and then closed the door at the same time.

Outside the entire museum, even though it's midday, the sun should be at its strongest. However, the entire museum was indeed shrouded in a dark cloud, and it seemed that there was no sunlight in sight.

It was supposed to be a sunny day, but from time to time a cold wind blew through, and the clouds did not blow away, but blew off a little dust nearby, making the already terrifying museum even more gloomy.

The clock crossed twelve, and it was a day in April of the twenty-first century, and strange things about the museum were still happening.
