"See these messy footprints in the snow?"

"I saw it, but they were all left by the Hongyi brothers when they were fighting, and there were no footprints of the murderer in them." Although Ji Wei is not deep in the city, he is not a stupid person.

"The crux of the matter is these footprints." Qi Lu emphasized this point, and seeing Ji Wei's confused face, he smiled faintly, "If it were you, how long would it take to leave so many footprints?" ”

"If it's normal, I guess it will take ten seconds."

Qi Lu asked him, "How long will it take to meet the enemy, that is, the murderer, and you are fighting?" ”

"It's hard to say this, but it will take longer......" Before he finished speaking, Ji Wei gasped, and he suddenly understood the intention of Qi Lu's question. You mean...... The fight between the Hong Yi brothers and this murderer actually lasted for a long time? ”

"yes, don't you feel weird?"

"You're right, Hong Yi can entangle with me for a long time, which shows that the murderer's strength is not as strong as we imagined." Ji Wei's eyes lit up, and then he said happily: "Then what are we waiting for, quickly find out the murderer and kill him!" ”

"Alas, you're still thinking too simply! I think the case is getting more and more complicated and getting harder to deal with. ”

"Since the murderer is so weak, what are you afraid of?" Ji Wei felt that his brain had reached a dead end, and he couldn't keep up with Qi Lu's thinking at all.

"Don't forget how Hu Qingyun and Yi Hanchuan died!" Qi Lu said with a cold expression: "Both of them died almost without resistance, but Hong Yi has been fighting with the murderer for a long time. What does this mean, could it be that Hong Yi's mana is much stronger than Hu Qingyun and Yi Hanchuan? ”

"It turns out that Your Excellency thinks that there is more than one murderer." Hu Lei understood, and he couldn't help but mutter, after all, he hadn't seen the god's accomplice.

Ji Wei didn't fully understand, he said reluctantly: "Two murderers, isn't Meng Huai dead?" ”

"Meng Huai is not a murderer, there are at least two real murderers, one of them is the murderer who killed Hong Yi, but he is by no means the one who killed Hu Qingyun and Yi Hanchuan." If Qi Lu was still suspicious of Meng Huai before, at this moment, after logical reasoning, he completely believed what Meng Huai said when he was dying.

The Demon Leader nodded approvingly, and said, "Mr. Qi is right. The murderer's methods of committing crimes are different every time, Hu Qingyun died under the water spell, while Yi Boss died under the wood spell, and it is likely that they did not die in the hands of the same person. ”

"Judging from the current situation, this possibility cannot be ruled out." Qi Lu replied.

"Holy shit, there are so many people trying to kill us? It's also a fucking division of labor! Ji Wei's heart fell to the bottom, and he felt fear quietly spreading in his body.

Qi Lu asked: "There are only Hong Yi's footprints at the scene, why are there no traces of the murderer?" ”

"Maybe he didn't hit the ground with his feet, he just floated in the air to fight Hong Yi."

"With Hong Yi's wisdom, can't he see the murderer's intention to cover up the traces, he should have the ability to leave us some clues."

The Demon Leader replied, "I didn't find such a clue, did you?" ”

"I'm ashamed, I didn't find out, it's a strange thing." Qi Lu always felt that there was some kind of mystery hidden in it, but he couldn't see through the mystery.

The night was unusually cold, and the snow fell again, like a remnant flower falling on everyone's bodies, but everyone's hearts were colder than this cold night.

"Judging from the situation at the scene, it was some kind of unexplained explosion that caused Hong Yi's death." Qi Lu raised his head and looked at these monsters, "Didn't you really hear the explosion?" ”

Everyone shook their heads and fell silent. This is a very uncommon sense thing, whether it is a normal explosion or an explosion caused by a spell, it is impossible not to make a little noise. What's even more weird is that the explosion will release a large amount of energy in a very short time, producing high temperatures, Hong Yi's physique is different from ordinary people, the blood in his body is composed of flammable materials such as oil, why do you see that the black liquid flowing from his body to the ground is not on fire now?

Qi Lu felt a chill in his heart, and his intuition told him that maybe what was happening at the moment was not terrible, and the real scary was still waiting for him.

Hu Lei suddenly asked Qi Lu coldly, "Your Excellency, where did you go just now, that is, where were you when Brother Hong died?" ”

As soon as Hu Lei's words were finished, Demon Kui and Ji Wei looked at Qi Lu's side, because the three of them were in the hotel room at the time of the crime, and Qi Lu was the only one who came from outside.

"Are you doubting me?" Qi Lu suddenly sensed a strong hostility in their eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in his heart, but he could only patiently tell them in detail about Hong Yi who he met when he was resting from the room and asked him to go out, as well as the strange things that happened later.

But his explanation didn't dispel the fear and confusion on the faces of several monsters, and Qi Lu had to say embarrassedly: "I don't have to lie, believe it or not." ”

Hu Lei said with a cold face: "The only one who can prove you is Hong Yi, but he is dead, and we have no way to confirm it no matter what you say." ”

"Hmph, then you think I'm the murderer of Hong Yi?" Qi Lu's voice has raised a lot of decibels.

Hu Lei-for-tat: "You said it yourself, I didn't say anything." ”

Seeing that the two of them were arguing again, the Demon Leader frowned and stood between the two. "The murderer of the Hong brothers should be about the same strength as us, and theoretically speaking, any of us are suspicious."

"Demon Leader, you're looking for trouble!" Before Qi Lu got angry, Ji Wei couldn't help but scold, "Don't count Lao Tzu in it, Lao Tzu just wants to kill people, and he won't use such despicable and obscene means!" ”

"I didn't say you had to be a murderer." The Demon Leader glared at him and said, "Who can prove their innocence until the truth is revealed?" ”

Hu Lei sneered in his heart, the red agate was so easy to get, and he had succeeded in creating an atmosphere of distrust among everyone, he believed that it would not be long before these companions would kill each other without doing it themselves, and then they would be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

So he pretended to be persuasive and said, "Don't quarrel, let's let the Hongyi brothers settle in the ground first, and then discuss the arrest of the murderer." ”

Hong Yi's body was blown to pieces, and there was no way to use magic to restore his corpse, so the demon leader returned to the hotel and dismantled a few tables, and used demon magic to turn the wood into a colorful coffin and drag it out, and put the broken corpses on the ground into the coffin with slush.

The four of them, one carrying a corner of the coffin, silently walked forward in the dark, buried Hong Yi next to Yi Hanchuan's grave, and added a new grave in the snow.

When Shang Xiang kowtowed, the four of them were gloomy, watching each other. After three murders in quick succession, they no longer have the composure they had when they first arrived in the village of Charbagh, and they both realized that they could be enemies, but they were bound together by the instinct of survival.

When everyone returned to the hotel and Qi Lu was about to go back to his room to rest, the demon leader stopped him and said that he was asking everyone to discuss the next plan.

Several people sat on the chairs in the hall, the demon leader poured tea for everyone with a gloomy face, and Qi Lu just wanted to take out a cigarette to smoke, but he saw Ji Wei huddled in the chair and stared at the front with a dull gaze, like a small beast trapped in a cage.

Qi Lu's heart couldn't help but chuckle, and from Ji Wei's obvious panic, he sensed that there was an atmosphere like ice water that soaked everyone, and everyone felt that the footsteps of death were approaching him.

Qi Lu had no choice but to put the cigarette back into the cigarette case, and he seemed to feel more anxious than others about the status quo of being trapped here and powerless to change the situation. Because the most important thing is to find out the truth about the resurrection of the gods, he would have expected to fight here.

The Demon Leader asked, "Mr. Qi, do you have any suggestions?" ”

"Nope." Qi Lu's expression was a little dazed, thinking of the missing Lao Wu, worried about his life and death.

Ji Wei seemed a little excited, and his speech was not so coherent. "We ...... You can't sit here and wait. We must act...... The killer must be lurking nearby......"

Hu Lei replied angrily to his somewhat nervous companion, "Then what can I do, you pull him out?" ”

Outside, the snow was falling heavier and heavier, and the wind was like a ghost.

Although there was no discussion, in the end everyone adopted an approach. All the people sit in the living room, and only one person is allowed to leave the house at a time, and must wait for this person to come back before the other person is allowed to go out.
