Chapter 33: The Chain of Suspicion of Death

"I have a question, the numbered thing is a day's thing from yesterday to today, how much can he send out? It's impossible to do this kind of thing blatantly, so it can't be for everyone, and I think it's part of it. Chen Yaodong said.

"How do you know it started yesterday?" Tong Fei turned around and stared at Chen Yaodong.

Chen Yaodong said that he had leaked his mouth, and hurriedly changed his words: "Because my people received a note last night, if everyone received a threatening note inexplicably during the day, this matter would have been worn out a long time ago, so his only way is to stuff the note last night, and then announce the role of the note early this morning, there are not many people who can do this." ”

"Is it hard? How long does it take to wake up in the middle of the night and stuff a note? ”

After Li Chaoyang finished speaking, he found that everyone else stopped talking, and they all looked at him with a strange look, strange, suspicious, and wary, Tong Fei even took a step back.

"You've been with Guo Mingming last night?" Chen Yaodong asked.

"Are you suspicious of me?"

"That's right, aren't you suspicious? You stayed on deck last night on the night shift, and if you're going to kill someone, then you can do it at any chance, say, what did you do last night? ”

"I didn't go anywhere, I was on the boat, I still said that, I didn't kill anyone, I didn't have that need, and don't forget, I was kidnapped at that time."

Li Chaoyang's defense, Chen Yaodong did not believe that it was still to be verified whether their captors and the judge were the same person, and he immediately found other doubts.

"Was Guo Mingming with you all the time last night?"

Li Chaoyang wanted to say no, Guo Mingming left in the middle, but when he thought of what Guo Mingming stuffed into his pocket, he hesitated again, that thing must be very important, if he said it, it might fall into the hands of others.

The crowd outside also began to stir, and a lot of different voices were heard.

"I think the murderer is the person on duty yesterday, wouldn't it be good to find them and ask them all over again?"

"That's right, I think that tour guide is the most suspicious!"

Other people also recognize this very much, Guo Mingming was on duty last night, the crew was killed by him, and now Wu Qingyun may also be killed by him, such a person with blood on his hands doesn't care about killing a few more, he is the executioner in everyone's minds.

At this time, Huang Mao walked out, staring at Li Chaoyang with a gloomy expression.

"Friend, should you also explain how you were on duty last night, how the murderer killed someone without your knowledge, and sent a note by the way, how did he do it? I think you're accomplices, right? ”

Huang Mao's statement sounds reasonable at first glance, but it doesn't make any sense, first of all, Li Chaoyang has never been to the cabin at all, and secondly, even if someone is killing people in the bathroom, he can't hear it outside.

He didn't believe that Guo Mingming would kill Zhu Yulan, he and Zhu Yulan didn't know each other and had no motive to kill, his family was still waiting for him to go home, and there was no reason to kill innocents indiscriminately.

"I don't believe I can't pry open their mouths if I beat them up." Huang Mao said.

"Don't do it, they ...... They are not murderers! ”

It was Hu Jun who spoke, he pointed to the inverted cross on the wall and said: "Look at this, this is an inverted cross, which represents the wrath of Satan, and now it is mostly considered to be a negation of religion, a symbol of rebellion, and some people say that it represents ominous, death, and even a cult, only a madman will kill someone and draw a cross here." ”

Cult?

Hu Jun's words immediately reminded everyone of a person.

"It's you!" Yellow Fur raised his hand and pointed at Su Marie.

The others looked sideways, and Su Marie's eyes were slightly closed and her expression was indifferent.

"It's what you said about the ship being cursed, and that we're all going to die, and you're always turning around and making ghosts, and you're a madman."

Su Marie immediately became the target of public criticism, this woman has been sneaky since Xiaowen's accident, this ship is called Queen Mary, and her name is Su Marie, is this a coincidence?

There is also a suspicion that the term judgment comes from the mouths of these believers.

"You're wrong." Sumarie took her cross out of her clothes.

It was a positive cross.

"I believe in the omnipotent Lord, he is noble and merciful, he wants to judge the evil in the world without my hands at all, you have no basis for random suspicion and accusation of others, your soul has long been decayed, judgment will come sooner or later, it is just a matter of time, I said that this ship is cursed, heavenly punishment is coming, only those faithful to God will be forgiven."

As she spoke, Sumarie drew a cross on her chest again and prayed in a low voice.

"Old witch, what are you playing, isn't it all a cross, what's the difference?" Huang Mao said with some annoyance.

"It's not her, but the cross represents Jehovah's forgiveness, which is very different from the inverted cross." Hu Jun suddenly felt weak, Su Marie said that everyone would die, but he didn't expect that more and more people would die.

Zhou Shucheng thought about it and walked out, comforting everyone loudly, telling everyone not to panic, the murderer's purpose is to sow discord, as long as everyone is united, there will be no hurdle that cannot be overcome.

That being said, no one responded.

"Sir, did you receive the note?" Huang Mao asked.

"I didn't." Zhou Shucheng replied very simply.

"Do you believe it?" Huang Mao asked everyone loudly.

No one answered.

There was a dead silence.

No one dared to answer, now that the murderer was among them, they were all afraid of retaliation, besides, Zhou Shucheng said that he would not have it without him? Who believes?

"I have!"

A loud voice rang out from the back of the crowd.

It was a tall man who spoke, he held up the note in his hand and said loudly: "I am the 23rd, I am waiting for you to kill me, the murderer is taking advantage of the characteristics of our mutual distrust, deliberately dividing us, creating an atmosphere of fear, and making us mess with ourselves, if we are not united, sooner or later he will be killed, a simple truth, if the numbers are corresponding, then half of us will survive, but will he let go of the remaining half?" Absolutely not, there is only one fate left for everyone, and that is death! ”

Everyone just watched him silently, and no one spoke, and now they had to watch out for not the inquisitor, but the tourists around them.

Now the cruise ship is like a dark forest, everyone is a hunter with a shotgun, each other is hidden in the dark, no one dares to expose themselves, because exposure means death, and the only way to protect themselves is silence.

Whether you have a number or not, as soon as you open your mouth, people will doubt whether what you say is true, what is your motive, and whether you want to kill me?

This is an infinite chain of suspicion of death, and eventually everyone will be driven insane, and they will be reduced to lambs to the slaughter to be killed one by one by the judges.
