386. The first terracotta figurine

Mrs. Ou didn't sleep either, sitting on the sofa in the hall, looking anxious, as if she had been waiting.

The person who came back was really Xu Yinuo, his face was as pale as paper, he looked at Mrs. Ou and said, "Mrs. Ou, calm down and drink some brandy first......

He poured a glass of wine for Mrs. Ou, who took it with trembling hands and drank it all.

Mu Fengmian asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Xu Yinuo said: "I found Mr. Ou's boat on the beach, as well as ...... His corpse! ”

Mrs. Ou wailed, covered her mouth and cried.

Mu Fengmian sat beside her, hugged her, and comforted her softly.

An hour later, Mrs. Ou's mood calmed down slightly.

The time on the clock shows that it is five o'clock in the morning.

Xu Yixu called everyone else (including the butler and the two maids) into the hall and told them all about the situation.

Everyone was shocked and terrified! At least on the surface!

Xu Yinuo said: "I suggest that from now on, for the sake of safety, everyone should not act privately and try to stay together!" I'm going to take you to see the corpse now! ”

Shi Sishi hurriedly said: "No, no, I don't want to go!" ”

Xu Yi promised: "If you don't go, then stay here alone, and the rest of us will go together!" ”

Shi Sishi cried out loud with a "wow", and Curion comforted him.

Mu Fengmian said: "I agree with the idea of making a promise. The storm is so strong, I don't think there will be any ships coming in the next two days. In this situation, I think the only way we can do it is to unite and help ourselves! ”

Xu Yinuo nodded to her and said firmly, "Then we'll leave right away!" ”

Everyone put on rain gear, promised to take the lead in the front, and everyone else followed him and walked towards the beach.

Mr. Ou's boat was tied to the sea, and a headless male corpse in casual clothes was lying about three meters away from the boat.

Mrs. Ou forced herself to compose, carefully recognized, and said with difficulty, "This dress..... It's his! That's what he wore yesterday to go out. ”

Mu Fengmian asked, "His head ..... Where is it? ”

Xu Yinuo said: "I searched everywhere, but I didn't find it!" Probably swept away by the waves......"

Mu Fengmian said: "Based on his clothes and body shape alone, can you be sure that he is Mr. Ou?" ”

Xu Yi was stunned and said, "But this island is a private island, and it is Mrs. Ou's property. If it weren't for Mrs. Ou or Mr. Ou taking people to the island, the island's face recognition automatic alarm system would have sounded. I haven't thought about the alarm system in the past few days, which means that there should be no one else on the island except for a few of us! But I also hope that he is not Mr. Ou, only to protect the scene and the body, and let the police do DNA testing when the time comes! ”

Mrs. Ou had long been crying, and Bai Dangjia supported her, whispering a few words of comfort from time to time.

As a doctor, Su Su was quite timid, squatting next to the corpse, observing the wound.

"The man's fatal wound was probably a wound in the neck, and it was obvious that the head was in a different place with some sharp weapon, such as a sharp axe," she said. ”

Lose one's head? Mu Fengmian remembered the nursery rhyme on the wall, isn't the third sentence "A head separates the family"? It's creepy!

Su Su continued: "Judging from the stiffness of the body, it should be yesterday morning, he just came here, and he was killed before he could go to sea, and the murderer did not leave any traces, of course, it may have been washed away by the rain." ”

Mu Fengmian nodded, and also leaned over to look at the corpse.

In order to solve the case, she can only focus on the corpse and see what clues exist that can be unearthed.

Mr. Ou's fingers curled up, as if he was holding something inside, Mu Fengmian's eyes lit up, and he forcibly endured the discomfort and approached to observe it carefully.

Shi Sishi took a few steps back, as if she wanted to leave this place, but she didn't dare to go alone, looked around, and leaned over to Xu Yinuo's side.

"Brother Yinuo, it's terrible here, can you send me back?" Shi Sishi said with a trembling voice and tears in her eyes.

Xu Yinuo glanced at Shi Sishi and said, "If you want to go back, let Brother Curion accompany you back, I still have something to do." ”

Shi Sishi was aggrieved and scared, but she didn't know Xu Yixu on the first day, and she could see his impatience, so she had to turn her head to look at Julian.

Curion said: "There are several of us here, and it may be more dangerous if only the two of us go back to the villa." ”

As soon as he said this, Shi Sishi didn't dare to go back to the villa.

Gallion stretched out his arm and hugged Shi Sishi in his arms, but Shi Sishi did not refuse. At this time, she really needs a person to rely on!

It was morning, but the sky was as dark as evening, and the light was dim and the wind was gusting.

Mu Fengmian found a lily-shaped white diamond ring in the corpse's hand.

When Mrs. Ou saw this ring, she became even more emotional. Odd books

Mu Fengmian noticed that Mrs. Ou also had an almost identical ring on her finger, the difference was that the band of Mrs. Ou's ring was smaller.

Xu Yinuo said bitterly: "This is their wedding ring." ”

Mu Fengmian looked carefully at the ten fingers of the corpse, and they looked very clean and white under the rain when they lost their blood.

Mu Fengmian asked, "Does Mr. Ou wear a wedding ring all the time?" ”

Mrs. Ou nodded tremblingly.

Mu Fengmian had a bold reasoning in her heart, but she didn't say it. It would be unwise to say that reasoning in the present situation! If it is said out, then the second person killed may be Mu Fengmian!

He said to Curion: "We move the carcasses to the warehouse near the villa so that they are not eaten by vultures." ”

Curio vomited and said, "No, I can't do this!" ”

Bai Dangjia said: "Useless guy! Make a promise, I'll carry it with you! ”

Xu Yinuo nodded, handed a pair of gloves to Bai Dangjia, the two put on gloves, Xu Yinuo wrapped the corpse in his raincoat, and the two carried the headless corpse together.

The two of them placed the body and quickly rushed back to the Lily Villa.

The wind and rain were too strong, Xu Yinuo didn't have a raincoat, and his whole body was drenched, and when he arrived at the foyer, rain fell from his hair dripping down, and a puddle of water quickly gathered on the ground.

Ordinary people must be very embarrassed when they are drenched like this, not to mention that they have just experienced such a thing.

But Mu Fengmian saw that except for Xu Yinuo's face being whiter and his eyes brighter, there was almost no change, just like the wet clothes that stuck to his skin were worn on others.

"Go take a hot shower and change your clothes, it's easy to get sick." Mu Fengmian couldn't bear it.

Xu Yinuo didn't speak, went upstairs and walked into his bedroom.

Shi Sishi, who had always shown her angelic face, instantly turned into a female devil and glared at Mu Fengmian viciously.

Mu Fengmian wasn't afraid of her, but he wasn't in the mood to fight with her, so he said a few comforting words to Mrs. Ou, and then prepared to go upstairs to the bedroom alone.

As she passed by the dining table, she took a special look at the ten dwarf terracotta figurines in the center of the table and counted them in her heart.

The number of dwarfs is really one less, and Mu Fengmian remembers that one of the ten dwarf terracotta figurines was writing before, and now the dwarf terracotta figurines are gone.

Is there one less dwarf terracotta figurine when one person dies? Is this plot really similar to Agatha's famous mystery book "No One Survives" in which a dead person is one less soldier?

Could it be that this mystery game is a tribute to Agatha?

If that's the case, then the next person to die will probably be at bedtime?

Mu Fengmian hesitated a little suddenly. Will I go back to my bedroom? Maybe I'll be the next person to be killed.

She thought about it for a while and decided to ask Mrs. Ou for two anti-wolf sprays, so that at least she had a sense of psychological security.

Mrs. Ou asked the old housekeeper to take out six anti-wolf sprays, two each for Mu Fengmian, Su Su and Shi Sishi.

After Mu Fengmian returned to the bedroom, he hurriedly locked the door and checked the room to make sure that there was no one else, and then he was ready to start taking a bath.

The quiet room suddenly remembered a loud knock on the door, which startled Mu Fengmian, and subconsciously asked, "Who?" ”

"Miss Mianmian, Mrs. Ou invites everyone to gather in the dining room."

Mu Fengmian heard the voice of the old housekeeper, exhaled, and said, "I'll take a bath and go over." ”

Mu Fengmian didn't like to make people wait, so he turned on the hot water, washed it quickly, put on a simple white T-shirt and light blue jeans, and immediately went downstairs to meet everyone.

When she got to the dining room, she found that everyone else had arrived, except for the butler's wife and daughter, who were not present.

The atmosphere was very solemn, and everyone seemed preoccupied.

When they saw Mu Fengmian coming in, they all spoke, but they just glanced up at her, and then they all looked away.

Mu Fengmian saw that Mrs. Ou had changed into a black silk dress, outlining a beautiful figure, and Shi Sishi was a pink cake dress, delicate and cute.

"Why did it take so long to wash?" Mu Fengmian was just about to find a place to sit down, when Shi Sishi suddenly asked, her tone was like interrogating a prisoner, and she didn't mean to be polite at all.

Mu Fengmian glanced at her and said lightly, "I was thinking about a question just now, and I delayed a little time. ”

"Thinking? People like you deserve to talk and think? Shi Sishi said disdainfully.

Mu Fengmian wanted to frustrate Shi Sishi's arrogance, so he took the opportunity to tell the horror nursery rhyme found in his room and the missing one of the ten dwarf terracotta figurines.

Mrs. Ou said: "It seems that your observation skills are really not weak, and you deserve to be a detective!" Xu Yinuo also discovered this problem just now, and asked you to come down just now to talk about this problem. What about the housekeeper, Mrs. Butler, and An An? ”

The old housekeeper said: "My daughter An An is not feeling well, I let her rest in bed for a while, and let the housekeeper's wife stay to take care of her." ”
