Chapter 403 Reasoning: Night Before the Truth Forty-one

If you have experienced yesterday's events, rashly gather everyone early this morning to suspect and inquire one by one. Liu Qiaopu can foresee that most of them will not tell the truth, especially the truth about the past. It's like the first day of entering the treacherous house, at least the housekeeper, the horror and the cook, and Wen Yuya all lied, if it weren't for the fear after the murder, they were forced to tell the truth, otherwise by now, the criminal police would not even have this clue.

In order to get useful information directly, it is necessary to put some people in a desperate situation. At this moment, the nine people faced by Liu Qiaopu can roughly distinguish a few suspects, and the connection between these people and the past is more important to the criminal police than Wen Yuya and Yan Muheng!

While Liu Qiaopu was thinking, he unconsciously changed positions with Shan Mingze, Shan Mingze was standing on the edge of the wall, pushing one side of the wall, and it seemed that it was difficult to push away. Liu Qiao looked around, but the other young people were still indifferent, and they didn't mean to help.

Turning around, Liu Qiaopu said to Shan Mingze: "Don't push it, the mechanism is not on the wall!" His words made everyone wonder, could it be that Liu Qiaopu was playing with them?

"Then why did you ask me to push this side of the wall?" When he came back from his surprise, Shan Mingze asked.

"I just said that the mechanism is not on the wall, not that the entrance and exit are not in the place where you pushed it."

What do you mean by that? I don't understand! Shan Mingze relaxed his strength and stood in place looking at Liu Qiaopu, although his face was swollen and he couldn't see his expression, but he could hear a little dissatisfaction in his tone, as if he felt that he had been fooled by the old criminal policeman.

Liu Qiaopu said patiently: "Xiaodan, the way to open the mechanism is under your feet." You're just applying the wrong force. You should use your arms and legs together. ”

"But, Grandpa Liu," Shan Mingze retorted, "You said that the mechanism is under the soles of your feet, then you should use your feet hard, what does this have to do with your arms?" If you use the soles of your feet, you just need to hold your arms against the wall! I don't understand, Grandpa Liu, what the hell do you mean? ”

They were suspicious of these people, so the people who were not around now seemed to be in danger of disappearing to these nine men and women.

Before the action, the old man carefully counted the number of people, a total of nine people, one is not more, and one is not less. Liu Qiao Pu knows very well in his heart who overlaps with whose identity, and who is the one who really disappears. Anyway, it's a given fact that everyone is under their control now, unless the murderer is not among them, but someone they haven't seen on the sidelines.

Of course, Yanagihashi thinks that this is extremely unlikely, almost non-existent.

The old man walked towards one wall, where he was going to reopen the switch on the wall of the recreation room in front of everyone, where two different spaces would still open, and he would explain some of the secrets of the double doors.

The person who followed the old man was still the same Shan Mingze who had been looking up at the front, this guy seemed to have suddenly become a follower, and he didn't know whether he was monitoring Liu Qiaopu's actions. still wants to help Liu Qiaopu do things and show his innocence. Anyway, the old criminal police didn't refuse him, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what he did!

The selfish Mr. Lu Haoyu was also observing Shan Mingze all the time, he tried to keep a distance from the others, wanting to see what Liu Qiaopu and Shan Mingze were going to do? At the same time, the gentleman was also rejudging the identity of everyone in the room, and he noticed that something seemed to be wrong, but he didn't have the intelligence to figure it out immediately.

But at this moment, Lu Haoyu's suspicion is also the doubt in our hearts! Yanagihashi didn't plan to reveal his hole cards so quickly, he first had to figure out the secrets of the existence of Wen Manman and Horror. Yun Yeyao didn't mention Wen Manman at all last night, but mentioned Terror. The terrifying origins are indeed a mystery, and it is possible that she has a lot to do with Anze's dreams.

When I was in the living room outside just now, every detail of the horror did not escape the eyes of the old man and the actor. Liu Qiaopu felt that some of her reactions at that time were too similar to Wen Manman's current time, so the old man had to suspect that the story Wen Manman told last night was not the truth at all.

Xie Yunmeng's rescue fell into a bottleneck, but fortunately, Yu Qia's life was not in danger, and they could be allowed to think of a way slowly. On the other side, Liu Qiaopu and the injured Shan Mingze led nine people to start acting.

Liu Qiao Pu looked directly into Wen Manman's eyes, she did change, there was no fear and fear in her pupils, she became extremely indifferent, and even empty to the point that she couldn't see the slightest emotion. In her heart, Liu Qiao Pu was shocked by her change, the old man never thought that one person could really become another person in an instant.

He now decided that Venmanman was no longer the smart and wise little girl they had known before, but a complete stranger, as if they had met for the first time. Everyone's eyes turned to Wen Manman, but except for the injured Shan Mingze, no one saw what was inside like the old man.

Shan Mingze sat next to Liu Qiaopu, and at this moment, the consternation in his eyes was not inferior to that of any one person.

In the crowd, there is another person who is more special, and her special is not because she has seen through Wen Manman, but because her arms have become empty. Sister Wang, who was supposed to be holding the horror, had no one in her arms at the moment, and when everyone didn't notice, the little horror had already disappeared.

But what's even more strange is that Sister Wang didn't exclaim because of this, the cook didn't feel anxious because of this, and Liu Qiaopu and Shan Mingze didn't notice the lost person in Sister Wang's arms at all. The small space they were in could see everyone with a slight turn of their heads, so if they had panicked about the horrific disappearance, things would have gotten in trouble.

Since there is none, it can only be because they don't care about this little disappearance, and even disdain it.

In the small space, there were originally nine men and women in addition to Liu Qiaopu and Shan Mingze, but now, in the case of losing the horror, when we recounted the number of people, there were still nine men and women, so is there one less, or one more? It's unbelievable.

In a small space where you can see everyone around you at all times, the identity of the personnel is changing imperceptibly, and our only investigator, Mr. Retired Detective, has not noticed it at all, which is incomprehensible no matter how one thinks about it.

Is it really because Liuqiao Pu is old and has become sluggish? But looking at the old man's performance yesterday, he doesn't look like a slow old man at all!

For the time being, the other person hidden in his heart will not appear immediately, and he will not make a move on Yun Yeyao again, now Yan Muheng is a helper, he remembers the past things, and he also remembers the person he likes, but he doesn't know the secret of the eternal heart like Yun Yeyao.

——

On the snow-covered earth, there are still the footprints of the man when he left, although he is almost out of sight, and he doesn't want to kill everyone, he just wants to kill the hateful man who lurks deep in his heart, and he just wants to kill those who have left his past in a quagmire.

Mr. Chef who died in the basement has been forgiven, and the chef is finally willing to return to the treacherous house to atone for his sins, which makes Eternal feel that his heart has softened for a while, but seeing the lover who has reappeared, Eternal's heart hardens again, and some things must not be taken away again, just like the fate of Terror and Shu Xue.

The second floor of the main house of the treacherous house, inside the stairwell leading to the third floor

The style of the stairwell is not the same as Yanagihashi Pu imagined, and this starts with the structure of the second floor of the treacherous main house. As we said earlier, after they passed through the mysterious passage, they saw a hexagonal room that looked similar to the shape of the outer part of the tower.

According to the size, these rooms occupy most of the space in the dining room and kitchen on the first floor, and the room directly opposite should be above the living room on the first floor, whether it involves the space on the roof of the hostess's room and the study, this is hard to say, because the part on the roof of the study may coincide with the bottom of the brown tower for a short time through analysis, and there is no way for everyone to enter the room directly opposite to check.

Standing at the front were a few boys, the boys' strength was always greater, and Sister Wang and the cook led the girls to block the door outside, anxiously looking forward to the information from inside.

"Grandpa Liu, what's up on the stairs? Did you find something terrible again? Qin Sen asked, he and Lian Fan beside him squeezed their heads forward, wanting to see the situation above the stairs clearly, although Lu Haoyu was not as active as the two people in front of him, but the curiosity in his eyes was no less than that of others. His hand reached into the crowded gap, and his palm almost touched the old man's back, as if to push him forward, and it seemed that he didn't have any force but just posed.

Liu Qiaopu didn't notice Lu Haoyu's movements, he was squeezed by Qin Sen and Lian Fan, and realized that he shouldn't stand here and observe what decoration style, but should take action. So take a few steps forward, turn back to the people behind you, and say, "Come in with me, everybody!" There's no danger here, let's go up and see. ”

His words were like a reassuring pill, the tense atmosphere instantly decreased a lot, everyone followed him towards the top of the stairs in an orderly manner, they didn't want to be orderly and couldn't help it, the internal and external spaces were limited to the number of people who could pass, only one person could walk at a time, and the shoulders of two people would be against the wall.

According to the order of the queue, let's roughly talk about the direction where everyone is, so that the plot will develop better in the future.

The first person is naturally Liu Qiaopu, who walks very slowly because of the medicinal effect, but his spirit is not bad. Starting from Liuqiao Pu and counting backwards, the second is Qin Sen, since leaving the place where he was hiding just now, Qin Sen's attitude has changed slightly, he is no longer hiding behind people to try to reduce his sense of existence, but quietly moved to a place where everyone can notice, and his words are gradually right.

The cook's mother-in-law had a hard time speaking because of her heart discomfort, and she said slowly: "I have heard Mr. Housekeeper talk about such a stairwell before, but I have never seen it, and I don't know what the real appearance of the stairwell really looks like. Mr. Housekeeper just told me that there are some doors in this stairwell that don't need to be opened, and only this one leads to the third floor. He said he didn't need any keys and couldn't find any doors. No one but him can find a real entrance. ”

"I didn't know exactly where the stairwell was when Mr. Butler was talking about. Now that I think about it, it should be here, Mr. Butler said that there is an entrance, I believe he will never lie, or everyone will look carefully. After the cook's mother-in-law finished speaking, she was helped back to the staircase by Sister Wang, she looked very tired, and when she got downstairs, she sat on the floor against the wall, and her eyes never left Liuqiaopu, who was thinking.

Qin Sen kept following behind the old man, and he picked up the words of the cook and said, "Grandpa Liu, the windows here can't be opened, and the walls are tightly blocked all around, how can there be a passage!" We went back to where we came in and managed to pry the other two doors open, and I think the real passage should be there. ”

"You think, Grandpa Liu, when we came in, there was no door chain outside, which proves that the person who designed the house didn't want to seal this place at all, if this place can really access the third floor, and the owner's house is so taboo that someone enters, how can it not even install a lock? So I think it's possible that this is a deceptive illusion that makes people who enter think that there is no way to get to the third floor, and automatically give up their intention to go up further. ”

Qin Sen's words were agreed by most young people, but the cook was still shaking her head, she said: "That's it, my husband won't be wrong, Mr. Liu, you can find it again." ”

And the one he always believed in, why did he put all the blame on the maid? There are so many things that men don't understand! But there was only one thing in it, and he was sure of it, and that was that the maid had absolutely nothing to do with the fire! But this point brought him more doubts and more hurt!

The footsteps continued downward, and in fact, the man was not walking from the second floor of the mirror house to the third floor, but from the third floor to the largest room on the second floor. The hexagon had a special meaning to him and someone, and the reason why the hexagonal room below was not furnished with any furniture was more accurately because the man thought it was a burial chamber rather than a room.

Yes, if anything happens to this Spiegel House in the future, he and his loved ones will definitely imprison themselves on the second floor of the main house, and they will not let anyone find them, and bury themselves forever, which is the last thing a man can choose to do.

The figure gradually disappeared into the narrow and dark bathroom, and finally he couldn't even hear the footsteps, no one saw how the man came down from the third floor, and no one knew whether he had stayed in the space on the third floor, only the last sigh left, showing the man's heart broken because of sin......

——

No one knows how many years it has existed, and no one knows how many years it was built, but according to the memories of the cook's mother-in-law, it was already in use when she arrived at the Spiegel House, and it was already familiar to the people around her.

The days that belonged to the Spiegel House were relatively short, and the cook remembered about five or six years, and that also included the days before and after the fire, and maybe the years would have been shorter if it had not been for the hostess's resolute disagreement with the change of the name of the house. And the days before and after the days that belong to the treacherous house add up to more than ten years.

The secret of the eternal heart is the secret of the dream realm, standing behind Xiao Heng, Shu Xue looked indifferently at the criminal police in front of him who still trusted them, and had already sneered countless times in his heart. Traps and killings were waiting for him ahead, and he was stupid enough to believe Xiao Heng's words. Therefore, trusting this thing, in Shu Xue's heart at this moment, feels that it should not exist at all.

"Wen Manman, didn't you go back down there? How did you end up here again? Mr. Criminal Police's cold questioning made Shu Xue ask, and he realized that he had been pushed in front of Mr. Criminal Police by Xiao Heng.

"You're mistaken, this is Shu Xue, not Wen Manman, she has something to tell you!"

Taking advantage of Xiao Heng's return to the criminal police, Shu Xue quickly adjusted her emotions and prepared to deal with the next questioning.

Sure enough, Mr. Criminal Police was very shocked by this, and a pair of eyes kept scanning Shu Xue's body, and asked, "What is her identity?" How can he look exactly like Weymanman? Why should I trust her? The series of questions carried an unsettling questioning tone, and if it were an ordinary little girl, she would have retreated a long time ago.

But standing in front of the patrol officer at this moment is a black shadow that has been hidden for too long, and she wants to get rid of the shackles of the shadow and become the one standing, so the word retreat will not appear in her dictionary.

Shu Xue began to answer questions, and began to speak the lines she had prepared, and those lines made Mr. Criminal Police change from wariness to half-belief, from half-belief to trust, all of which relied on the secrets of the past, of course, it was only a part of the secrets of the past, and it was the part that I wanted them to know.

Finally, Mr. Detective asked, "How much secret space is there in this house?" ”

"That's all we know!" Xiao Heng quietly pulled Shu Xue behind him, and replied in her place: "Shu Xue is the one who was wronged back then, and later he stayed because he had to stay. Shu Xue and I have never been to the side house, nor have we reached the upper floor of the main house, and everything is known only to the housekeeper and the hostess. ”

"No," Horror shook her head gently when she heard the study as if she was afraid, and she said, "Mr. Qiao, in fact, I have always been very afraid of the study here, and I don't know why, when the hostess was here, she always warned me not to touch the innermost shelves of the study, so even if I came back to play the piano at night, I always had to listen to the movement in the study first, so that I could feel at ease." ”

"Why? How many of you are in the treacherous house? Could it be that there is a secret passage in the study, and it could not be that the hostess will go to the study at night and don't want you to find out, so she is lying? ”

"I don't know this very well, anyway, I always think the study at night is very weird, although it is daytime, but I still want to stay in the bright place, those bookshelves in the study always block the sunlight......"

Speaking of this, Chokley interrupted her with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "Horror, except for the door, there is only one window in the front of the house in the study, but it is also blocked by the bookcase, what do you mean by always blocking the sunlight?" ”

"I remember when the hostess used to be there, she used to let me go to the study to get books, and when I entered the study during the day, it was actually very bright inside, even if the lights were not turned on, it didn't matter, I didn't know where the light came in? But as soon as you walk to the back rows of the bookcases on both sides, the light will be completely blocked by the bookcases. ”

"You're saying that during the day there will be plenty of sunlight in the center of the study, and the bookcases on both sides will be very dark, right?" Chokley asked, "But there is no window in the center of the study, and the only window is also blocked, and the angle of light cannot penetrate the corridor in the center of the study, so where does the sunlight come from?" ”

"Could it be a fluorescent lamp hidden somewhere? For example, behind a book, or inside a thick wooden plank, the hostess and housekeeper deliberately used it instead of sunlight to deceive other people's eyes. ”

These voices, no matter how soft, could attract the attention of the Horror, which Chockley of course did not know. The thin black man couldn't sense the fierce fluctuation of the horror, he concentrated on studying the door in the study that could be opened in reverse, but although the crack in the reverse door was found, it could no longer be opened as easily and naturally as in the daytime, but was locked tightly, and Jokli was still unable to open it despite all his efforts.

He was not reconciled, and began to look for traces of the lock along the crack of the door, but it did not get his wish, and finally Jockley could only stand up straight, and turned to look at the horror who was playing the piano, and just as he was about to speak, Jokli noticed that the little girl seemed to be wrong!

The terrifying eyes were closed, the head hung low, and he looked dozing, but his fingers were moving on the keys at all, and the moonlight music was also played very smoothly, and Chokli suddenly remembered the words of Yanagihashi Pu's care for him, and quickly reached out to push the terrifying, but he didn't expect that in the next second, Chokley felt something cold against his throat.

After discovering what that cold thing was? A creepy feeling surged up from the bottom of Jokli's heart, as if the fear that he had just ignored was now all back in his body at once, Jockley opened his mouth to make a sound, but in the end he didn't say anything, just followed the little girl who had already stood up, and moved towards the depths of the darkness together, until the figures of the two people completely disappeared into the study.

The sudden change may indicate that another fresh life is about to be taken away in this house, but it is also possible that things will still be reversed, what is wrong with the horror, is her condition the same as Wen Manman beside Liuqiao Pu, and Wen Yuya, who is guarded by Shan Mingze, who is not injured? What will be the fate of Chokley, all these questions will eventually coincide, and the answer will be found at the moment when Yun Ye Yao openly explores the secrets behind everyone.

Thinking of all this, the man returned upstairs desperately, but when he returned upstairs, there was no one in sight of the original place, and at this time fear really occupied the man's heart, which was a kind of kind of horror, so the man rushed out of the space lined with tall wooden cabinets, wanting to find the figure of the girl desperately.

But he didn't have to look for it anymore, because the soft moonlight song came into his ears, and the girl sat in front of the strangely shaped piano, her white fingers kept dancing on the keys, as if this moonlight song was played for men, and in the accompaniment of the piano, the girl began to tell her own story, it was the man's bravery, which made her believe in his sincerity, and made her finally willing to tell the secret that had been buried in her heart for many years, and this secret was related to the blood of An Ze that Yun Yeyao had always wanted to know.

——

Underground cave of the treacherous house, afternoon of December 31

Xiao Xiao hunched her body and soon climbed up the wall of iron bars, her slender fingers clasped between the gaps in the iron bars, her movements were agile and skillful, and after reaching the very top, Xiao Xiao hooked the iron bar with her toes, and groped her hands on the rock wall on top, hoping to find a prosthesis that could be opened.

If you don't have a prosthesis, you can have at least one weak spot that can be smashed open. Xie Yunmeng looked up at the policewoman's movements, he wasn't worried that the policewoman would fall from such a high place, because he knew the small skills best, and in some places, even Xie Yunmeng sighed to himself.

Lowering his head, Xie Yunmeng said to Tang Meiya's ancestor: "You just stay here and wait, I'll go and see the offering table blocked at the door, no matter what, wait to find a way to remove all the parts that can be removed, and then see the situation." ”

Xie Yunmeng is not wrong, and now he can only take one step at a time. There were two policemen here, and Tang Meiya was also a little relieved, she felt that the possibility of saving the accident this time had greatly increased.

Xie Yunmeng said: "Xiaoxiao, you go down first, it may be wrapped in iron sheets here, do you have any tools that you can use?" ”

"Where do I get my tools? If it's an iron sheet, smash a pit, whatever is in it, smash it first! Xiao Xiao replied bluntly as she jumped down from it.

Xie Yunmeng thought about it, when did he be so hypocritical, and he wanted to destroy it little by little, he found a relatively thin rock on the ground, and the criminal police smashed it towards the center of the target position with all his strength, like a small one, it was a pit, and under the brute force of Mr. Criminal Police, the narrow part in the middle began to shift, and the water spewing out of it gradually increased.

A thin stream of water flowed outward from the twisted part, along the iron bars below to the rocky ground, gradually, Xie Yunmeng saw clearly, in the middle part of the iron bars intersecting, it was indeed a water pipe wrapped with rocks and iron sheets, although he didn't know where the two ends of the water pipe led, but Xie Yunmeng was sure that the mechanism here was prepared to destroy the iron door, and the people who dug this rock cave before had already set it up early in the morning, and they had to destroy the iron bar before they could open the dark room.

No wonder what they just did was useless! The offering table is only responsible for opening the door and not for opening the way to survival, and the lever behind it is just an illusion. The iron bar wall is responsible for opening the way to survival, and the person who brought Yu Qia into the dark room must have the key to the small door here so that he can not use the offering table, in that case, the possibility that this person is the original occupant of the treacherous house increases.

With the destruction of the middle water pipe, the polished special rocks and iron sheets continued to fall, Xie Yunmeng handed the stone in his hand to Mei Xiao: "Xiaoxiao, you continue to knock on the other parts, and I will resist the iron bars that fell from above." ”

Everyone is waiting in trepidation, Liu Qiaopu is no exception, the old man has always had a layer of worry in his heart, not worried about Yun Yeyao, not worried about the people around him, this layer of worry can't let anyone know, if it is exposed, it will reveal someone's identity, so that the action can no longer continue.

But although the old man couldn't say it, he couldn't show it, but his heart burned with pain. This kind of painful worry was something that the old detective had never experienced before, and he had to work hard to control his emotions, and he had to work hard to keep his gaze from looking so hesitant.

Yun Yeyao, who was in the house, had already explained the situation outside to Yan Muheng in the briefest words, and Yan Muheng was also very worried, he was worried that Shan Mingze was in the dark, and the others were in the light, if Shan Mingze was the murderer, then those who were trapped in the stairwell would be very dangerous.

And what Yun Yeyao was worried about was the same thing as Liu Qiaopu's worry, which was very different from what Yan Muheng thought, and he said to Yan Muheng: "You are now in a sober state, can you recall where you walked when you came in just now?" ”

"As I said, I didn't know what this place was, I didn't come in, and when I woke up, people were already here." Yan Muheng said categorically.

But Yun Yeyao persevered, "Xiao Heng, this matter is very critical, you have to think about it, I can tell you for sure, you brought me here just now, and you are much more familiar with this house than me, now you have to think about it, think about what Mr. Housekeeper told you before, think about whether you have seen a place occasionally forgotten, please, think about it?" ”

"Well, well, I'll give it a try." Yan Muheng also had no choice but to use the dead horse as a live horse doctor, and temporarily agreed to Yun Yeyao's request, he paced back and forth in place, holding his hands on his chest, thinking hard, but the blank space in his brain did not give him any clues anyway, so in the end, Yan Muheng still shook his head at Yun Yeyao, saying that he didn't know anything!

'All right, let me show another manly courage and move forward!' ’

There were barely audible words coming from the void, and it didn't seem like they came from the mouth of a dark shadow. Because at this moment, his figure has disappeared into the unknown space, completely invisible, and the words seem to come from the invisible air, or the imagination of someone outside the door.

——

When the shadow's hand touched a certain bend, suddenly another pair of hands reached out from the opposite side, and the shadow straightened up instantly, afraid to erupt from his heart, he was indeed frightened, because in this place where he couldn't see his fingers, anything unforeseen could happen.

Struggling to restrain his pounding heart, the shadow remained silent, hoping that the other party would speak the first sentence so that he could confirm the other person's identity.

And it turned out to be exactly what he wanted, and in less than five seconds, he heard a familiar voice from the other side. The other party's words could instantly breathe a sigh of relief, and the tense muscles in his body also relaxed, and he asked, "How did you get here?" ”

"I can't tell you the details now, don't open your mouth, just listen to me," the other party's tone sounded very hurried, and the black shadow closed his mouth and waited for the following.

A faint light illuminated the black shadow's face, and at the same time allowed him to see the other party's face clearly, and when the light froze, an exclamation immediately came from the other party's mouth: "Why are you so seriously injured?" Was there a conflict? ”

The Black Shadow just shook his head, he didn't want to explain the reason now, just like the other party.

After understanding what he meant, the other party continued; "I'm just coming out to see if you're here as planned, when I came in just now, I already figured out the route, you take this." With the words, a white note torn from the notebook was stuffed into the black shadow's palm.

She felt that the grocery store owner must be helping Mr. Criminal Police to lie, Xixi was not denying the boss's starting point, he was not stupid to that extent, she knew that the starting point was good, but she couldn't ignore the person she loved, that person was still facing a crisis in the treacherous house, how could Xixi stay outside and wait with peace of mind?

So the little girl made a bold decision, that is, he was going to sneak out into the snow, and then return to the treacherous house to stay with his loved ones. Xixi feels that since the two people really love each other, then they must live and die together.

But this stupid little girl would never have imagined that the person she loved, who had been using her as a pawn from the beginning, was now of no use to the chess player, and that she would be in a more dangerous situation than the others when she returned to the treacherous house, without the protection of Mr. Detective.

Cissy had already gotten up from the bed and tried it, but the door of the room was locked by the grocery store owner, so now the little girl could only lie on the bed and look at the ceiling alone. It was the second floor, and she couldn't get out of the window at all. Sissy's heart was very anxious, and now every minute seemed like a century to her, and worry had long filled her heart.

Is there really nothing that can be done?' Cissy questioned herself inwardly, grasping something tightly in her hand. If I can't, I'll have to wait for them to open the door before I go out, and they'll always bring me food." ’

This little girl is really a tendon, so that people have no way to comfort her, blindly believe in the person she loves, and hurt the person who loves him again and again, as she is in love, one day she will fall into a situation of no return, and push all the people around her who care about her and love her to the distance.

But it is impossible for Cissy to think of this layer now, her mind is full of how to get back to her loved ones, and for this she will not hesitate to take some means that she thinks is 'appropriate', just like when she was down the mountain.

It's not that he's afraid of taking responsibility for his crimes, he believes that the criminal police are fair and just, but he just thinks that if there is an accident in his hands with a human life, then he will definitely be full of guilt in the future. Mountain families like the grocery store owner and his wife, although they do a small business, are mostly honest and simple in nature, and they will treat them seriously and responsibly, no matter how big or small.

After wandering in the corridor for a long time, Yun Yeyao finally figured out some doorways, in fact, he didn't care about the frequent corners, and the same corridors and doors, if you look at all the space as a whole, then you will find that the corridor is like a pipe folded together, and you can still find a certain pattern.

Actually, this is not a labyrinth at all, you can imagine the map in Zuma's mini-game, those zigzag passages that hold the balls. The passages fold back and forth next to each other. If you think of them as corridors, do you have a lot of walls that overlap together? And some of the doors on the walls actually occupy the same space.

These spaces can only be inside the pipes, that is, some doors can be opened to lead to a corresponding room, and the spaces that form the rooms become barriers between the corridors, they block certain passages, and then they have to rely on other false 'door frames' to form new passages.

Some of these fake 'door frames' may just be a notch in the wall, not to mention the door, not even a basic frame. They open new passages without a trace, lead people looking for entrances and exits into unknown directions, and even lead people back to the place they have just walked, if the pedestrian only cares about walking forward without looking closely, it will be like a labyrinth, no matter how you go, you can't find the right place, and there will always be a place to pass in front of you.

"It's not a second-floor ceiling, nor is it flush with the second-floor floor. Xiao Heng, you listen to me and then express my opinion, I just assume that there is a small cubicle outside the wall we are facing, not that the space we are in must be flush with the cubicle, the floor we are standing on now should be in the center of the cubicle, that is to say, this stairwell is only half of the stairs, and the stairwell where Grandpa Liu and they were just now can turn around and go to a lower place. ”

"Are you saying that the floor we're standing on now is in the middle of the downstairs room, half a room higher than the downstairs?"

"That's true, and then let's look to the right, and if the next door to the wall on the right is the room on the third floor where we just stayed, then according to what I just said, the floor of the room should be in this position." Yun Yeyao stretched out his hand and gestured to the middle of the corridor wall, what he meant was that the space they were standing in now overlapped with the room on the second floor, and the upper half overlapped with the room on the third floor, neither of which was flush, but they all intersected.

Waiting for Yan Muheng to barely understand his words, Yun Yeyao continued: "Next, we are going to talk about the wall on the left, outside the wall on the left, is the upper half of the staircase of the stairwell where Grandpa Liu and them are, so imagine it, is it the same as here, extending up to the third floor?" Also, the wall at the top of the stairwell is to the left of the door behind us. ”

"It is sealed there, and there is no gap at all, so when Grandpa Liu and the others walked to the top of the stairs, they encountered a dead end. Since it is impossible to walk from above, the passage to the third floor can only be at the bottom. ”

"No, Xiao Yao, there are still a lot of problems that don't make sense here, first of all, there are two windows there, according to what you said, those two windows can't be figured out with the outdoors, but where does the sunlight come from? Even if the window can't be opened, it's an ornament, but the sunlight can't be faked, right? Also, the main house and the tower are closely linked, and there is so much space on the second and third floors that it is impossible not to involve the tower at all! How do you explain this? ”

Yan Muheng's words seemed to sound very reasonable, but just based on Yun Yeyao's explanation just now, it really couldn't explain anything. So what will Yun Yeyao say next? Can he explain it all?

Yun Yeyao thinks that everything has the possibility of reversal, and this possibility can fall on anyone in the room.

"Okay, let's move on to the problem of the entrance and exit of the secret passage," Yun Yeyao pulled the topic back to square one, and said, "The gap we just opened in the room is just a little hint left by the house designer, the house designer is like a gamer, after he designs a complex mechanism, he will definitely leave some hints for the puzzle solver, so the gap just now is to tell us that the room we entered is next door to the stairwell,"

"Although the stairwell on Grandpa Liu's side shows us a closed message, it can be deduced from this that there is a real stairwell leading to the third floor around, or it is not a stairwell, it is a secret door, a small mechanism, these are all possible. The only constant is that these things exist around the perimeter of the room we are in, and that's what the designers want to tell us, that all the mechanisms exist around the perimeter of the room, not far away. ”

"Then the next question is to piece together these spaces in your mind and find a reasonable place to get in and out," Yun Yeyao pointed to his temple and continued, "This requires thinking, not just walking around." ”

"Xiao Heng, imagine that where we are now, it coincides with the lower part of the room outside the wall on the right, and also coincides with the upper part of the stairwell outside the wall on the left.

Yun Yeyao wrote the word H on the wall with his finger, and continued: "Remove the lower part of the vertical part on the left side of H, and remove the upper part of the vertical part on the right, won't it be possible to clearly indicate the connection point of the three spaces?" According to such a hint, Xiao Heng, you recall, where did I find the wall gap in the room just now? Yun Ye asked Yan Muheng.

Entering this room, he just wanted to make it easier for him to peek at those people hiding in the stairwell and grasp their movements, and in the next period of time, he had to follow these people closely and cause some trouble to these people, but he could not reveal his true identity.

As for these troubles, whether these people need to be injured or killed, or just a little frightened, only the men themselves know best.

The man's face looked very calm, and as soon as he stepped through the door, he saw the gap in the center of the wall, and the hair and clothes that were faintly shaking in the gap.

'Huh...... The first door at the third turn at the beginning of the entrance...... The last door at the fourth turn, that's it...... They will never know that I will be in this place...... Give them a big surprise......

The thought in his heart followed the action, and the man sat down where someone had just laid, and when his hand touched the soft fabric, a sigh overflowed from his mouth, 'That man is really shrewd, he has not forgotten any details, and things have been done so seamlessly, no wonder he can be impressed!' If only I ......'

At this point, the boy immediately brought it to an abrupt halt, because the man didn't want to think about what was going on, which would make him sad, and he had to keep a cool head in order to make the most of his gray brain cells.

Reaching out and touching under the fabric, drawing out his clenched fist, the man walked to the cabinet at the other end of the room, there were several drawers on the cabinet, the man opened the top one, put the hand he was holding in it, and then spread it down, no one could see what the man was holding in his hand?

Perhaps he didn't take anything, because when the man's hand left the drawer, there were still neatly stacked black notebooks, and there was nothing extra at all.

"Maybe it's a man walking on tiptoe, and if a man stands on tiptoe, his footsteps will be very soft. What's more, I'm completely unfamiliar with Xixi, so you let me confirm, isn't it an extra move! It really doesn't make sense......"

"Do I have a reason that you can't judge, and you don't have to be so excited, I ask you, if you have long arms, will you be able to reach the gap above?"

"This......" Qin Sen reluctantly raised his right hand to the highest position, his height was about 1.76 meters, if he stretched out his arm to cushion his toes, his fingers just reached the gap above the wall, and he could reach into the inside to feel a little bit of the wall.

In order to allow Liu Qiaopu to see the result more intuitively, Qin Sen's fingers grabbed the edge of the gap, and then he put down his hand and said, "It's enough, Grandpa Liu, you don't want me to climb up to see the situation inside the gap, right?" In case it is discovered by the murderer inside, it is not a joke! ”

"Why did you suddenly become so timid?" Liu Qiaopu questioned him and said: "When you were outdoors, you took the initiative to ask me to save people together, at that time I felt that you were not afraid at all, you were an excellent man, now you just let you take a look, and it will not necessarily endanger your life, what are you afraid of?" ”

"Grandpa Liu, so many people have died here, it's natural that you will be afraid! At first, when I was outside, I only thought about saving people, and I didn't think of anything else, but now, when I see such a terrible thing, I can't do anything about it, and other people will do it. Qin Sen defended himself.

Liu Qiaopu obviously didn't want to continue arguing, he didn't have the right to influence a person's actions, although everyone here was currently listening to his arrangement, but the old man understood that it was out of fear, not out of absolute trust in himself.

Without waiting for Liu Qiao Pu to open his mouth to stop it, Wen Manman walked to the top of the stairs in three steps and two steps, she jumped up several times, until her fingers firmly grasped the edge of the gap and hung the whole person up, Liu Qiao Pu looked at her movements, and seemed to forget her reaction, he didn't expect that this little girl's hands were so powerful, and when they made contact before, they couldn't see it at all.

Qin Sen slowly got up, he was not injured, and looked at Liu Qiaopu who opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything. The others also protected themselves and swallowed everything they wanted to say back into their stomachs. It can be seen that many people have deep worry in their eyes, except for Liu Qiaopu, others are not so much concerned about Wen Manman's life, but more concerned about whether they will be hurt because of this.

When Wen Manman jumped on the stairs just now, he made a loud noise, and the room separated by a layer of wooden planks could be heard clearly, and if the people next door were not deaf, they would definitely have discovered them, so now if Wen Manman poked his head out to see, the danger factor was much greater than Qin Sen just now.

Moreover, the small gap above is obvious, and although it is impossible for anyone to climb through, the murderers can guess that they entered through the entrance and exit connecting the second and third floors. If the murderer went to block the entrance, then they would really be trapped in this stairwell.

Just as Venmanman was about to get a better look in the next room, Yanagihashi Pu pulled her from behind and told her to go back into the stairwell. The others were all in a panic at the moment because of Vinmanman's behavior, and several of them had already rushed to the small room under the stairs, ready to go back to the first floor.

Lian Fan ran and shouted: "Grandpa Liu, don't wait any longer, if we don't get out in time now, the murderer inside may trap us in this place." Man Man must have attracted the murderer just now, so you can follow us back to the first floor! ”

"It's not uncomfortable, it's panic!!" Qiao Keli raised his voice and said, and then he told Xie Yunmeng about the terrifying behavior just now, originally thought that Xie Yunmeng would be very shocked after hearing it, but he didn't expect Mr. Criminal Police to smile faintly and say, "This is also a sign of fear!" When a person is unable to vent her fears, she will take some extraordinary measures to determine whether the people around her are safe and trustworthy. In fact, it's only because you have less contact with the horror that it's hard for her to trust you. ”

Qiao Keli approached Xie Yunmeng, she raised her head, pointed to the blood marks on her neck and said, "I almost died!" If it weren't for the fear that her life would be in danger, I would have run down the basement of the study. ”

"But it is precisely because you came back and did not abandon me that I will tell you all my secrets!" Terrorist walked up to Chokley and said, smiling on his face. Her hands were covered with chilblains from housework and rubbed the corners of her clothes, looking flushed and apologetic.

Xie Yunmeng didn't want to waste time, he and Mei Xiaoxiao were still worried about Wen Yuya in the tower, so he took a step forward and let the people who were still in the study outside the door, and then said: "Let's go to the entertainment room first, wait a minute, Mr. Qiao, you help me take care of these people temporarily, and Xiaoxiao and I will go to the secret passage of the blue tower to pick up Aunt Wen and Shan Mingze, who is not injured, and will be back soon." ”

"Shan Mingze who is not injured?" Xie Yunmeng's words made both Horror and Qiao Keli feel very surprised, it was clear that Shan Mingze was by Liuqiaopu's side, and he was also seriously injured, how could there be an extra Shan Mingze who was not injured?

Xie Yunmeng knew that they would definitely have questions, but it was inconvenient to explain now, and he would not be able to sit down and explain clearly until Wen Yuya was picked up and everyone on the periphery met and reconciled.

But Xie Yunmeng's next sentence made Xie Yunmeng hold back, and she said, "Officer Xie, is Mr. Yun also in the tower?" ”

But his voice was like a stone sinking into the sea, and no response was heard, and this time, the grocery store owner really realized that something was wrong, and he rushed upstairs in three steps and two steps, and as soon as he rushed to the bedroom door, the scene in front of him made him almost collapse, and there was no more Sissy in the room, only his wife lying on the floor alone.

The sweater on the proprietress belly was soaked with a large patch of blood, and a small fruit knife was inserted there, which was chilling, and it could be seen that the person who attacked the proprietress was very hard, and the fruit knife was almost inserted into the root, revealing only a piece of the handle. The wounded man lay on the floor convulsing, blood gushing out from between the fingers covering the wounds.

"Wife, what the hell is going on? Don't scare me! The grocery store owner rushed up and picked up his wife, who was lying on the ground, and although she couldn't move her body now, she was still conscious. She stretched out her trembling hand, pointed to the bedroom door, and said, "Quick, Sissy is going to escape...... She's going back to the House of Treachery to find the demon who hurt her...... You leave me alone, hurry up and chase it, hurry up. ”

After the grocery store lady finished all the words, she collapsed in her husband's arms and gasped. Now her husband still has the heart to chase after Sissy, his most important person is in front of him, and no man in the world is distracted to do anything else, and the same is true for the grocery store owner.

He picked up his wife and put her on the bed, no matter how the proprietress urged, he took care of himself and rummaged through the room to find medicine and gauze, ready to stop the bleeding and bandage the proprietress .

The grocery store owner, like the housekeeper in the treacherous house, has a little knowledge of surgical medicine, and if you want to survive in this kind of mountain, you have to know a little bit of everything, or else life will become very troublesome if you keep going up and down the mountain to ask for help.

When the grocery store owner was busy rescuing his wife, Cissy had already sneaked to the back door of the restaurant, and she didn't choose to go through the front door because she remembered that a body had been found at the front door, so she was afraid.

Pushing the woman into the snow and leaving her to fend for herself, the Black Shadow felt that this was not a direct killing, but just a way out of the way, and he tried to defend himself, blaming everything to someone else's fault, never believing that he was the real criminal.

In order to cover up this kind of terrible crime that he didn't admit but was afraid of, the black shadow did not hesitate to pay all the costs, but he felt that the appearance of the person in front of him would make the price he paid come to naught, so the black shadow could only hide himself deeper and act as soon as he saw it.

Undoubtedly, the dark shadow in front of her is an absolutely selfish person, and his selfishness is completely different from Sissy, who abandoned everything in order to save the person she loves, even at the expense of those who love her. And the dark shadow is completely for himself, abandoning everyone who loves him. Therefore, the ending of Sissi is destined to be a tragedy, and the ending of the black shadow is destined to betray and leave.

The time went back to December 30th, inside the secret passage of the brown tower, Xie Yunmeng had just left to find a little time because of the words of 'Yan Muheng' and 'Shu Xue'.

"Do you think that trap can really kill the policewoman?" After suffering a heart-rending headache, 'Shu Xue' finally could say a more complete sentence, her voice was very soft, trying to hide her expression in the dark, maintaining a frightening indifference.

"I guess it's okay!"

Yan Muheng, who was standing in front of 'Shu Xue', didn't care about Shu Xue's appearance at the moment, his attention was all focused on the corpse that was gradually revealed under the corridor, this was the corpse of a little girl, and they all thought that this little girl was dead.

'Yan Muheng' carefully observed whether he had left traces on the corpse that were enough for the criminal police to find flaws, and continued to say to 'Shu Xue': "Xiao Xiaoxiao doesn't know anything, as long as she falls into a hole in the rock, no matter how good her skills are, it is impossible to leave there in a short time, let Mr. Criminal Police go to her, so that I can buy enough time to deal with that kid who thinks he is a detective." He seems to be smart and can guess the truth of things faster than anyone else! ”

If we look at it from the level of freedom alone, being together with men and women is almost equivalent to giving up the whole world. If you only look at the level of worry-free food and clothing, a man is happy, because the woman in front of him has brought him the superior life he yearns for.

Freedom and material life are opposites based on two different bases. The man feels that he is more inclined to the former, so he suffers more than he is happy, and he is sad more than happy.

"Tell me, what do you want to know?" The woman, who looked much more mature than before, asked calmly, she was always smart and could guess the minds of men.

The man hesitated for a moment before he made up his mind and said, "I wonder what these diaries mean?" With that, he put the thick diary that he had been hiding in his arms on the table and retreated to the woman.

The woman looked down at the cover of the diary, she hadn't said a word for a long time, and in her calm expression, her heart was actually fluctuating. There was no urging in her ears, and the woman knew that the man's patience was good, and she wanted to wait for her to tell the truth.

But she can't, this truth is related to the future fate of the treacherous house, and she has to hold it in the palm of her hand no matter what.
