Chapter 15: What If

If you were to hide a corpse, where would you hide it?

Lu Wen had seen this question on an shady foreign-language website in his previous life, and there were many answers below, and one answer had a lot of likes - hidden in someone else's coffin.

Most of the answers are abnormal.

There are also some more normal answers, such as hiding in your stomach and hiding in a cement pillar.

"It's not going to be a good place to be under the puddle anyway."

The pit had been dug a little deeper the night before, and the rain had collected in it, and it had not yet receded.

Lu Wen asked himself, whether it was hiding a corpse or a murder weapon, he would not be stupid enough to hide in such a conspicuous place.

But Sun Wei's family, who lost their minds due to grief, would not have thought of this, and Lu Wen also understood.

Even he himself has a lot of things he hasn't figured out, let alone these family members who don't know anything from beginning to end.

"There's a pit in the backyard?"

As soon as they heard this, the onlookers seemed to remember what horror stories and movies they had watched.

The crowd walked to the rear.

Walking around the villa for half a circle, the puddle that is not big or small appears in everyone's field of vision.

"A bunch of fools."

Xia Chuluo had a cold face, clasped his hands, and watched those Sun Wei's family members carrying buckets and basins and hurriedly splashing water outside.

What made her angry was that her two assistants were also in the lineup of splashing water.

That's it?

Can this also be called passing the Turing test?

Xia Chuluo felt that Turing might be so angry that he would crawl out of the grave.

After a while, with the efforts of a group of people.

The puddle was empty.

"There's definitely something buried down there!"

Sun Wei's family did not give up, and someone held a shovel and began to dig down.

Dirt flying.

There was mud splattered everywhere.

It rained heavily on the night Lu Wen dug the pit, and the rain carried away the muddy mud, and some of the sediment settled down and was buried by the green grass.

And now it's just a hazy drizzle, which doesn't play any role except for adding a bit of depression and sadness.

"How can you dig something up?"

"Even if you really want to bury something, you won't bury it in such a conspicuous place."

“……”

The onlookers offered timely assistance and talked about it.

No one believed it could dig things up.

All the momentum is developing in the direction of Li Yu's favor.

Until......

"Blood!"

"There's blood oozing out!"

Sun Wei's family shouted.

Everyone was shocked.

Xia Chuluo frowned, came out of the crowd, and took the lead to the edge of the pit.

"How can there be blood?"

Lu Wen was surprised that he had dug the pit himself, and nothing had been buried.

Where did the blood come from?

Lu Wen stepped forward and took a look.

There was still some stagnant water in the puddle, and some reddish liquid could be seen seeping out from below, and there was also some red liquid on top of the shovel.

"Keep digging."

Sun Wei's family apparently has finally found some emotional catharsis.

Shovel shovel down.

The sudden bloodstain surprised most of the people present.

The voices of the people chatting gradually became quieter, and their expressions became focused.

In the dim sky, behind this small villa, people held up black umbrellas, and their eyes fell through the hazy water curtain into the pit that was neither deep nor shallow.

The soles of the shoes trample on the grass, and the mud and water splash.

The rain kisses the umbrella and ticks.

The scene seems to be a picture of a combination of stillness and movement, quiet and noisy pulling each other.

Li Yu snuggled up to Lu Wen, his eyes were red, and he didn't cry anymore.

Lu Wen looked down and found that she was calm and composed, without the slightest panicked look.

"Li Yu woke up before me this morning, and she buried something under here?"

"But is she really Li Yu?"

Although he confirmed some of his guesses on the third floor, Lu Wen still had many questions in his heart.

These questions are like a tangled knot, pointing to a contradictory conclusion.

Lu Wen began to think back to all the details he had discovered in the past few days, but he couldn't figure out some things anyway.

"Dig it out!"

The low shouts of the onlookers brought Lu Wen back to reality from his thoughts.

Everyone took a few steps forward, hoping to see more clearly.

Xia Chuluo glanced inside, and then waved his hand helplessly.

That indifferent and delicate face, as if it was full of - that's it?

Lu Wen followed everyone's line of sight.

"Mouse?"

The carcasses of several large rats were exhumed.

The muddy mud wrapped the gray fur of the mouse's epidermis, and several long tails dragged weakly to the ground.

"How could it be ......?"

Sun Wei's family members were struck by lightning, and they all looked depressed.

The onlookers sighed for a while, and some people breathed a sigh of relief for Li Yu, after all, the little girl is naturally the weak party, and it is easy to arouse sympathy.

Xia Chuluo really couldn't stand this meaningless waste of time, beckoned, and called the two assistants over.

"You two stay here to appease the family and clean up the scene, I'll go first and investigate something."

"Boss, the two of us are responsible for your personal safety."

Both of them obviously didn't agree with Xia Chuluo acting alone, and opened their mouths to stop it.

"Thank God if I don't protect the two of you, you two will only drag me down if you two follow me, please stay here, find a hotel to settle down your family, and I'll be back soon."

Xia Chuluo said helplessly.

"But ......"

"But what, my ancestor is the famous Sherlock, and nothing can threaten me."

"Boss, Sherlock is just a fictional character in the novel, and he's a Westerner."

"We're all fictional characters in fiction."

Xia Chuluo smiled faintly.

Without waiting for the two to say anything more, she turned around and pulled out her car keys.

Until Xia Chuluo drove away, the two androids were still a little confused, thinking about the last words Xia Chuluo said.

couldn't come up with a conclusion, so the two had no choice but to appease those Sun Wei's families.

Under the persuasion of the two of them.

Sun Wei's family finally gave up for the time being, drove to a hotel in a nearby town, and said that they would not leave and would wait until the matter came to a conclusion.

The crowd of onlookers also dispersed.

Before the grandmother left, she patted Li Yu's shoulder, spoke seriously, and said something like "Don't be afraid, girl, we are all on your side".

Li Yu nodded with red eyes.

After everyone left, the two androids checked Xia Chuluo's location and hurriedly followed.

Finally.

Throughout the villa range.

Only Lu Wen and Li Yu were left.

"Lu Wen, follow me to the third floor."

Li Yu looked calm, without pretending to be sad, and without the sweet smile of the past.

She turned back to the villa, looking a little out of order.

[Dangerous]

This word suddenly appeared in Lu Wen's mind.

Going to the third floor again?
