Chapter 234: The Suspicion of the Grocery Store Proprietor's Wife
Outside Ms. Wen's restaurant, around 10:40 a.m. sharp
The actions of everyone in the treacherous house have already begun, and it is almost lunch time, but the three people who stayed in the restaurant have not yet noticed the horror that is happening outside, and Sissy is arranged by the grocery store owner and his wife to rest upstairs, and the air conditioning upstairs is still running. Since the frozen little girl's mental condition has been unstable, the boss and his wife are very attentive to the movements upstairs downstairs.
Just as lunch was about to be served, the boss suddenly heard Sissy screaming! In this case, any abnormal movement can cause a strong reaction in an instant, and when a scream is heard from upstairs, the owner of the grocery store, who is trying to fiddle with the air conditioner in the living room, rushes up immediately.
The proprietress was not idle, she put down the half-filled plate in her hand and ran upstairs after her husband. The wooden staircase made a terrible sound as if it was about to break at the feet of the two men, which made Sissy, who had barely recovered upstairs, even more nervous.
"How are you, Miss Sissy, what happened?" The grocery store owner asked anxiously before he could stand still.
"I ...... I ......" Cissy's heart was pounding with fright, and he finally spoke: "There are cockroaches in the house...... Well, over there, the cabinet is down! ”
"Huh? Cockroach! Cockroaches?!! The grocery store owner, too, was confused by this reversal of the plot, and looked back at the bottom of the cabinet that Sissy was pointing to, where there was nothing but dust.
"No! Where are the cockroaches? ”
"Right there, I don't want to stay in this room, I'm going to stay with you!" Cissy scrambled to get up from the bed and put a sweater on her body, not even noticing that the sweater was worn backwards.
"Xixi, don't be nervous, you were not freezing lightly just now, the air conditioner downstairs is broken, it's very cold." The grocery store owner hastened to remind him.
But Sissy didn't listen to him at all, and put on her down jacket and ran to the door. She is not afraid of the cold now, she is afraid of the murderer who will come out of nowhere, and the dismembered corpse in the treacherous house is still lingering in her mind, as if it is always a reminder that something terrible will happen to Sissy again.
The boss is a man, he can't rush to block Xixi, just when he was in a hurry, the proprietress appeared at the door of the room and bumped into Xixi.
The proprietress hugged Xixi and said, "Xixi, if you want to go downstairs, you can put on the down coat in my box, that dress is big, and it is just wrapped around your down jacket." It's too cold down there. ”
The proprietress is kind, and Cissy understands that they are not the ones who will be involved in the murder, although the fear in her heart makes her tremble, but she still has her senses. The little girl did not resist, and lay in the arms of the proprietress like a kitten and did not move.
The proprietress motioned to her husband to hurry up and open the box and take the clothes out. Within a few minutes, the proprietress let go of Sissy's body, helped her put on her coat, and then walked downstairs with the little girl wrapped like a ball.
The proprietress asked, "Sissy, what the hell is going on?" Why would you be abandoned at the back door of a restaurant? ”
"I don't know...... It was as if he had saved me, and he didn't want me to stay in a place where the murderer was there, so he pushed me into the snow...... I also misunderstood that he was trying to kill me......"
"And then, Sissy?"
"Then he picked me up from behind and took me to the back door of the restaurant before leaving, and I saw him smash the ice off the back door of the restaurant."
Sissy's words made the proprietress feel that something seemed wrong, and she kept an eye on the little girl's feet to prevent her from falling. While continuing to ask, "Where were you pushed out of the treacherous house by him?" ”
“…… I didn't see it clearly, it seemed to be the window in the bathroom, and the glass of that window was broken. ”
"Then when did he get you up from the window?"
"It didn't take long for him to be behind my back...... Before I could stand up, he came. Sissy replied, her face confused, as if she wasn't so sure of every question she answered.
And the proprietress was much more sober than she was, and the proprietress sent Sissi downstairs to sit on the sofa, and at this time, the proprietress came downstairs with a clean blanket and walked up to them, and the proprietress immediately covered the little girl with the blanket.
"Sissy, you can't run around, Mr. Detective takes care of us to protect you, from now on, if it weren't for the detectives coming to you, you would have to be with the two of us all the time, you know?" The boss tried his best to say to Sissy in a calm tone.
The little girl nodded obediently, and shrunk the whole person into a wide blanket, the downstairs was indeed as cold as the grocery store owner and his wife said, and the air conditioner seemed to be competing with them, but they didn't want to start it.
Rubbing his cold hands, the boss was ready to 'fight' with the air conditioner for a while, and he didn't have anything else to do anyway.
But the proprietress pulled him into the kitchen, where the freshly fried food was already cold, the proprietress turned on the gas stove switch, and whispered to her husband by covering up the sound of stir-frying: "Something is wrong!" Do you hear that? ”
"What? What's wrong?! "The boss obviously hasn't reacted yet.
"It's what Sissy said just now, didn't you notice that it was wrong?" The proprietress asked rhetorically.
"Xixi told us a long time ago that the person was his boyfriend, and it was normal that he didn't want Xixi to be involved in the homicide!"
"But Xixi was sent by Mr. Criminal Police!"
"Maybe he handed someone over to Mr. Detective halfway?"
"Oops! Think about it, if you want to ask Mr. Detective, can't he just be in the house and handed over to Mr. Detective for protection? That's a lot better than we can protect. I always feel like there's something wrong with that person! The proprietress reprimanded her husband and said.
"You think! What did he want to do by pushing Sissy out of the house and outside? Xixi said that before she stood up, the person who pushed her out was already standing behind her, Xixi was a dedicated little girl, I could see that she was frozen in the snow and definitely couldn't recognize the human head. ”
"In this case, the man in the room has just pushed Sissy out, and when he hears it, he is hiding what the others are doing! How could he possibly run out of the outdoors again and go around behind Sissy? Take 10,000 steps back, even if he goes out, he won't move so fast! ”
The proprietress made her husband wake up, and he asked in astonishment, "Difficult, do you mean?" … The man wanted to kill Sissy?!! This, this is too vicious!! My girlfriend!! And Sissy still loves him so much! ”
"Shhhh Be quiet! I'm not sure, I'm just guessing! The proprietress said: "It is possible that Mr. Criminal Police found out about his actions, so he waited for Xixi outdoors before he rescued Xixi in time." ”
"And one more thing, the person who chiseled the ice at the back door over there..."The proprietress pointed to the small door behind the kitchen and continued: "In the morning, when you went to look for the main valve of the air conditioner, I heard a strange sound outside, and now that I think about it, someone must have started to chisel the ice from that time." At that time, it was still a long time before Mr. Detective sent Xixi. ”
"I wonder if the killer was digging the ice, and Cissy said she saw her boyfriend chisel the ice open. If my previous guess was correct, Sissy was rescued by Mr. Detective, how could she possibly see her boyfriend digging ice here? ”
"But when Miss Criminal Police asked us to come over, she made it clear that the murderer here would not come again, could it be that Miss Criminal Police lied to us?" The boss's face began to turn pale, but he immediately denied his question, as if to embolden the two of them, and said: "I believe that Miss Criminal Police will not lie to us, she said that there must be her reason for the safety here, don't think nonsense, wait a minute, I will block the front and back doors with furniture, no one will come in!" ”
"Then you go and plug it now, I'm at ease." The proprietress turned off the heat and began to put the dishes on the plate again.
The couple's conversation in the kitchen didn't even hear Sissy, her eyes stayed on the window, looking out at the snow. A black trail stretched out in front of Sissy's eyes, and she didn't care if she thought it was something dirty at first.
But faintly, at the end of the trace, something seemed to be shaking slightly. Cissy couldn't help but look closer, and the fear in her heart gradually expanded with the distance.
The blanket and the cushions on the sofa were dragged to the ground by Sissy, and at this time, the grocery store owner in the kitchen behind him also walked out, and he noticed Sissy's abnormal reaction, coupled with the suspicion that his wife said, so he secretly followed behind the slow-moving little girl, wanting to see what she wanted to do!
Neither of them realized that the horrific scene they were about to see, the corpses that had been abandoned in the middle of the ice for a long time were finally going to be presented to the parties involved in the event for the first time.
The eyes that turned up in both directions, as well as the blue-black forehead and the broken back of the head, seemed to indict the cruel crime of someone in the treacherous house!
