Those people had completely abandoned him, and the man calmed down and decided to think hard and find a way out for himself. But at this time, the wound began to hurt so badly that the man almost wanted to dig out the pain with a knife so that his brain could concentrate on the problem.

I did go out yesterday, but it was just to confirm something, that the man hadn't killed anyone, and that he hadn't done anything bad to anyone. Among those people, there are several guys who are more suspicious than themselves, why don't the criminal police arrest them?

In the confusion of thinking, the man can never figure out the right idea, he becomes more and more irritable, if he has the ability, he will immediately smash the wall and run away, because thinking has never been a man's strong point.

Glancing at my watch, it was almost noon.

'What am I going to do?' Is it here to accompany the skeleton and wait to die? Or wait for the murderer to suddenly appear from where and kill me? Thinking of this, the man felt the fear in his heart inflate like a balloon.

His footsteps approached the door again, and the closed gap now seemed to be the only way to escape!

Just as the locked man was thinking nonsense, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, from far and near, probably towards the room where he was.

The man hurried through the crack in the door and shouted, "Who are you?" Hurry up and let me out!! ”

There was no immediate response, and the people outside ran to the door and stopped, not knowing what they were doing? The wheezing sound sounded like a woman, so the man in the room shouted again, "Hey! Who are you? Hurry up and answer me!! Why are you locking me up? ”

"I'm a little bit, and we didn't mean to lock you up, we just wanted to make someone's movement safer. Now I can release you, but you have to keep a cool head and listen to me, okay? As she spoke, there was the sound of the doorknob twisting, and she must have unlocked the lock.

"So, it was Yan Muheng who took the initiative to ask you for help?" Mei Xiaoxiao asked, and at the same time she also heard a slight footstep outside, and after quietly confirming the direction of the person outside, the policewoman retracted her attention and opened her mouth to call out the name of the man in front of her-Shan Mingze.

It turned out that the real Shan Mingze was brought here by the criminal police, what was the reason for doing this, and who was Shan Mingze who escaped downstairs? We don't know at the moment, so we can only keep our eyes on their conversation.

"Yes, but I don't know how he found me, because we didn't have any contact with each other before." Shan Mingze replied.

Mei Xiaoxiao continued to ask, "When did you start going in and out of the secret passage?" Did you meet anyone else before you met Haruka? ”

Shan Mingze shook his head and said: "The first day during the day, when I was locked in the room alone, Yan Muheng had already replaced me, and I hid in the secret passage all day, Yan Muheng asked me to look for the diary left by An Ze, and someone who was very similar to Mr. Housekeeper." But I don't really know what the parent looks like, I only know that he is a fat man. ”

"Did you find the diary?" A little asked.

"No, when I stayed in the secret passage, I couldn't open a single door to the room there, not to mention the diary, I couldn't even find a piece of paper."

"So yesterday during the day, did Yan Muheng enter the secret passage?"

"No, I've snuck back into the guest room several times, and I've found him sleeping soundly with his head covered, I'm not sure, is he faking or really asleep? Because I didn't have the agreed time to change my identity, I didn't have to rush to wake him up. Shan Mingze said. The fear on his face was gradually diminishing, and his eyes were staring directly at Mei Xiaoxiao, who didn't look like he was lying.

Many questions are not something that can be figured out at once, and it is impossible for Mei Xiaoxiao to ask them one by one, she glanced at her watch, Xie Yunmeng was about to come back, she hurried up and asked, "Think about what else happened?" ”

After bowing his head and pondering for a few seconds, Shan Mingze still shook his head and said, "No, because the door of the room could not be opened, I couldn't find any clues, so I could only lean against the wall of the secret passage in a daze until I heard the conversation of the criminal police......"

"Did you hear the conversation between Xiao Meng and the teacher?" Xiaoxiao's mind immediately reflected the two people he was familiar with.

"No, it's the conversation between Yan Muheng and Grandpa Liu, I heard it very clearly, Grandpa Liu called him Xiao Heng." The man replied.

Why? When the murderer killed the first and second victims, he had to use the secret passage to act secretly, and the secret passage was still a forbidden area for the criminal police at that time. If a cannon fodder is arranged to move back and forth inside, then when the criminal police find out that the secret passage exists, they will first suspect the person who has the opportunity to enter the secret passage on the surface.

Then, Shan Mingze will definitely not be able to get out of it, how can he explain clearly that he and Yan Muheng have changed their identities, will the criminal police easily believe him without evidence?

On this basis, the murderer also made a second layer of defense, that is, the real Yan Muheng!

From the point of view of time, Yan Muheng has been staying in the shop of the peripheral grocery store owner and his wife, if he leaves for the whole afternoon, the grocery store owner and his wife will definitely be small, but they did not mention it, so Yan Muheng must not have left on the afternoon of December 30.

Not to mention swapping identities with Shan Mingze in the room. From this, it can be extended that the person who instigated Shan Mingze to go up the mountain to do the so-called help work was not the Yan Muheng we saw before, but another person.

Yan Muheng himself is not familiar with Shan Mingze, they are only linked to Xixi and the homicide case, if it weren't for being used, Shan Mingze probably wouldn't even know Yan Muheng.

All the above analyses only illustrate one problem, that is, someone deceived Shan Mingze, and Yan Muheng's identity was also used. The murderer gave the criminal police the 'first suspect' and the 'second suspect', wrapping himself in layers like zongzi, and his purpose was of course clear: to kill the victim and get away with it!

——

After explaining Xiaoxiao's side, let's take a look at where Xie Yunmeng went? He went to do two things: rescue and hide.

Let's rescue us for a while, let's talk about hiding. On the first floor, there was an attack on Liuqiaopu, and Yun Yeyao was there to direct everyone to help. The parties can be said to have fallen into chaos again.

Maybe the progress of the matter has made the really innocent people not find the suspicions, and the missing person is not only Shan Mingze, first of all, the brown tower can only see Qiao Keli patrolling, Liu Hang is not there. Secondly, when the girls went downstairs to wash, several people did not show up.

Except for Ms. Wen, Grandma Tang and Tang Meiya seem to have been silent for a long time. Do you still remember that when Liuqiao Pu was questioned, only Grandma Tang resolutely showed a position of trust.

The middle-aged woman who died was a relative of Xixi, and she was a woman, an ordinary little girl, when she had something on her mind, she would definitely confide in someone close to her and ask for help, especially the female elders in the family.

In fact, Yun Yeyao did think so at first, Xixi entered the middle-aged woman's room alone because she wanted to ask for help. But seeing Sissy's reaction, he abandoned this idea.

The tragic death of the middle-aged woman did not bring Xixi real sadness, and from the eyes of this little girl, Yun Yeyao saw nothing but fear. and her attitude towards Shan Mingze, she is not even willing to approach, let alone discuss things.

It can be seen that although Sissy is weak, he is definitely self-centered, and he has been stimulated. Except for the people she loves, others don't even have basic feelings and trust, to put it bluntly, they are simple and selfish. Such a person is unlikely to seek help from the person he rejects.

Because of this, Yun Yeyao's plan left Xixi on the periphery at the beginning, and it was best to let her get out, she couldn't get any useful clues from her, and it was easy to fall into the 'quagmire' because of some people's demagoguery in the house and couldn't protect herself.

The best thing to do is to keep her with the only grocery store owner couple who have nothing to do with the case. As for the person who sent him over, of course, it was Xie Yunmeng, Mr. Criminal Police's actions were crucial, he wanted to rescue Xixi safely, and he also had to guide Tang Meiya's ancestors and grandsons.

After receiving Yun Yeyao's notice, Xie Yunmeng immediately returned to the room, why? Because he had to go outside through the secret passage, and somewhere in the secret passage of the brown tower, the walls could be opened. After Yan Muheng demonstrated it once, Xie Yunmeng remembered it.

From there, it's much faster to climb the suspension ladder down to the outside of the treacherous house than to walk from the inside of the house. Xie Yunmeng had to get outdoors as soon as possible, because Sissy was very dangerous in the snow.

After rescuing Xixi, Xie Yunmeng took her directly to the back door of Ms. Wen's restaurant. Everyone still remembers that when Mei Xiaoxiao took Xixi to the grocery store on the evening of December 30, he didn't see Yan Muheng.

Before the murder began, Yan Muheng in the house had already determined that Xie Yunmeng was pretending. After the criminal police revealed their identities, everyone knew that there was another Yan Muheng on the periphery, who was hidden in the home of the grocery store owner, ready to cooperate with the work of the criminal police at any time.

We call him the second Yan Muheng. It stands to reason that such a person can be trusted, and the criminal police did ignore the suspicions in him at first. But later, one incident after another made the criminal police begin to suspect him.

As for whether these actions were all done by the second Yan Muheng himself, we can't judge it yet.

Next is the third 'Yan Muheng', his identity is the most bizarre, so far the description of this person is very vague, we don't even know his name. Maybe this man is the mysterious Eternal, or maybe he's the one who left with hatred in the treacherous house, like Venmanman.

And many things, we have to suspect that this third Yan Muheng did at the same time: such as bringing Shu Xue to Xie Yunmeng; attacked Yun Yeyao and took him downstairs;

Talking to Shu Xue in Meng Qi'er's room; After Shu Xue's death, destroy the evidence in the food warehouse; Acting alone in the snow in the middle of the night; Stop Mr. Cook and prevent him from escaping; and deceiving Cissy that she is a criminal policeman, letting her take off her guards, and so on.

These actions need to wait for the opportunity, and the time needs to be calculated, and the second Yan Muheng does not have so much time to act. But that's not to say he's completely unsuspecting.

The second time he saw him, he came back from the ruins of the side house and said that he was looking for the entrance to the basement. But we all know very well in our hearts that the time when he went out was before and after Mr. Chef was killed, is there really such a coincidence in the world? I'm afraid not, the odds are too small.

In the morning, after all the boys went to the first floor to wash, Tang Meiya and her grandmother knew from the criminal police that they wanted them to cooperate with the action, and Grandma Tang was very cautious about this, not because she didn't believe in the criminal police, but because this matter involved her granddaughter, she had to deal with it cautiously out of concern for her granddaughter's life.

Talking to Grandma Tang was naturally Liuqiao Pu, and the old man didn't bother much, but when Tang Meiya and Grandma walked outside the room, he went out and told them about a past matter, which was also the fundamental reason why Yun Yeyao and Liu Qiaopu decided to let the two Tang Meiya participate in the plan.

Tang Meiya knows her granddaughter's character too well, even if it makes her sad, she has to tell some of the facts today.

"Yaya, when I was as old as you, I once fell in love with someone without hesitation, he was very handsome, and he was completely the prince charming in my grandmother's mind. In your current words, it's a male god. ”

"But this Mr. male god is not a good person, at that time, my grandmother was young, she didn't know how to judge good or bad, she only knew that the person she loved was good, so she followed him to the north and south, and even didn't listen to the dissuasion of the family, and insisted on marrying him."

"It's funny that my grandmother didn't even know what he was doing! In order to be able to follow him, his grandmother once gave up her favorite job as a teacher, and it was not until the spring of the age of 19 that the arrival of the police completely shattered her dream. ”

"Do you know what that person does? Yaya. ”

"Grandma, do you want me to guess when you ask me this?" Xiao Yaya asked rhetorically, she had an answer vaguely in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it.

Tang Meiya encouraged her granddaughter and said, "Yaya is so smart, you must have guessed it, let's talk about it, it's okay." ”

"Grandma, you have been running around for the children in cram schools all your life, I know that you teach them a lot of times without tuition, I used to think that you are the kindest grandma in the world...... Don't get me wrong, I still think so, it's just ......"

Yaya slurred, reluctant to continue. She looked up into her grandmother's eyes and found that there was a lot of anticipation, and Yaya had to confide in her guess: "Is that sweetheart of yours involved in child trafficking?" ”

“…… Yes, so grandma is also a bad person, a bad person who has done wrong things to the children before! Tang Meiya lowered her head, her tone full of guilt and repentance.

"I don't believe you're so kind, I definitely don't believe you're involved in child trafficking! You must have been unaware at the time! Yaya unconsciously raised her voice, and it wasn't until Tang Meiya put a finger to her lips that she realized that she was a little out of shape.

After Yun Yeyao and Xie Yunmeng finished answering, they returned to the restaurant, the time was close to about 10 o'clock in the morning, at this time he commanded the rest of the people loudly, firstly, to stabilize everyone's emotions, and secondly, to inform the two Tang Meiya in the study, so that they could start acting according to Liu Qiaopu's instructions.

So Tang Meiya said to Yaya: "Grandma has a chance to tell you the rest of the things, now you follow grandma, we have to see if what Grandpa Liu said is true, be careful not to make too much noise." ”

"Well, grandma, I listen to you." Yaya stood up from the ground lightly and followed her grandmother into the depths of the night.

Soon, their figures were obscured by the bookshelves, and between the gaps in the bookshelves, there was a slight friction sound, as if someone was dragging something heavy, and there was a soft snort from the girl's strength.

Yun Yeyao and Liu Qiao Pu can't let their grandparents do dangerous things, that's for sure. What they had to do was actually similar to a certain plot mentioned earlier, it was Yun Yeyao who guessed something from the mutilated diary Xie Yunmeng got before arranging this action.

What I can tell you is that it is definitely related to Eternal's true identity, and it is not complicated, and everyone will understand when the plot develops.

Now, our eyes have to return to Yan Muheng.

The man hurried back to the treacherous house to tell the news, but the wind and snow exhausted his body, so he fainted on the floor as soon as he reached the door of the living room, and his tall body was gradually warmed by the warm air in the room.

Because the restaurant was in a mess, no one noticed Yan Muheng outside. He lay there alone, and he didn't know how long it took before he slowly woke up.

After waking up, Yan Muheng felt that his brain was swollen and painful, his hands and feet were numb, and he had no strength in his body at all.

'Why is this happening, what the hell is wrong with me?' An unconscious question popped up in Yan Muheng's mind, he never thought that his body would be so bad, even if he went back and forth in the snow several times, he also rested in between! You don't even have the strength to take a few extra steps!

His throat was so thirsty that he couldn't make a sound, and it was so difficult to call for help, Yan Muheng could only close his eyes and wait for his strength to recover a little. What had never happened before, for him, was tantamount to a catastrophe.

Contradictions occur in every corner of time and space, just like magic, how the impossible becomes possible, how the difficult problems become easy, all these things need to be explored by detectives.

However, it should not be forgotten that the time of the Strange House every morning and evening (please refer to Chapter 16), the morning time will pass very quickly, from 5:30 to 8:00 a.m., and the process of cleaning and making breakfast in the Strange House can be completed in just over an hour (there are no guests in the Strange House, and the guest rooms are not cleaned every day).

But it took two and a half hours, and the morning time passed surprisingly quickly, and after breakfast, it was already necessary to prepare lunch in a hurry, and the lunch time in the treacherous house could not always start on time.

In the afternoon, it slowed down like a joke, and by supper there was little to do, and when the little maid who came to help in Ms. Wen's restaurant came back in the evening, she always felt as if she was an hour late, but she could not find any evidence.

And then there's the strange big clock, and it's really strange that everyone in the house uses the clock to show the time, and the owner goes to wind the clock regularly, but she doesn't allow any clocks or anything like that anywhere else in the house.

Is this kind of unreasonable rule left by An Ze at the time of Anze, or is it set by the current hostess, or is it set by someone who pretends to be the hostess? Also, did Yun Yeyao take the issue of time into account in the counterattack plan? All of this, we can only wait patiently for the detectives to crack it.

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.

"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? ”

The upper part of the corpse's face still had flesh and skin, but the lips and chin were rotten and inhuman, and two large holes had rotted out of the cheeks, and the teeth inside were mixed between flesh and nerves, and the mouth was full of black objects, like small worms and dirt.

The tip of the chin was bare bones, and under the bones was a torn neck, and brown blood clots froze with the ice, like rotting fish meat forgotten in the refrigerator.

The room suddenly became quiet, and for several minutes, the people inside forgot about the cold, and even forgot that they were a living human being, until the screams sounded from the mouth of the proprietress who was holding Sissy, and the man standing next to her finally had the first reaction.

He pushed his wife back until the head of the corpse was out of sight, and in the corner of the house, the man gasped for breath, unable to utter the whole word, just repeating the same words.

"Treacherous House! …… Find the detective! Walk...... Treacherous House! Walk...... Come on!! Looking for a detective!! ……”

Thankfully, his wife didn't see the horrible head clearly, and there was still a shred of sanity. Receiving the meaning of her husband's words, she picked up Cissy and prepared to rush out the back door of the kitchen.

But in the next second, Xixi was snatched by her husband, and the man who couldn't speak shook his head desperately at his wife, meaning that there was such a big snowstorm, she couldn't walk to the main house with Xixi at all, so she let Xixi be with her, and she went alone to inform the criminal police that it would be much faster.

The appearance of her husband overwhelmed the grocery store proprietress, what are you doing here now? Kill them together while the killer comes to dispose of the corpse? The woman wanted to pull her husband and the little girl in his hand, and was ready to say that the three of them would go together.

Just when they were panicking, they heard footsteps from inside the kitchen, and a certain person, a certain man was walking towards them, the man's steps were firm and heavy, and he slowly approached step by step.

Hearing footsteps at this time, it was like seeing the approaching Grim Reaper, the proprietress instantly collapsed in the sofa, while the boss and Cissy were like two puppets whose lines had been cut off, unable to move half an inch, and the head of the grocery store owner turned mechanically to the kitchen door, and a pair of pupils revealed the despair of a dying person.

The suspect Xie Yunmeng found was also him, so it was easy to explain that the criminal police did not meet anyone on the way to the restaurant. Then, after Xixi entered the restaurant, the criminal police immediately followed Yan Muheng, who didn't see his face clearly, and the two of them came to the gate of the treacherous house together.

Xie Yunmeng watched Yan Muheng enter the treacherous house, then locked the door and quickly left to continue his actions.

The time was only ten minutes, in this process, Yan Muheng first fainted outside the living room door, and then got up and was attacked by a mysterious person, after a fight, the injured Yan Muheng was able to avoid the sight of everyone in the restaurant and quietly entered the study. It's already impossible to do.

And what's even more strange is that he hasn't been seen by Tang Meiya's grandson who was talking at the time, and hid in the corner of the bookshelf at the bottom of the study, until Tang Meiya's grandson took action, only to find that he was actually injured and lying there?

There is no way to make sense of this anyway, even if the sound of the fight is not heard by others, then the blood dripping from Yan Muheng's head and hands should also stay in the living room and study when he moves, but except for the place where he is leaning, there is not a drop of blood in other places, this is simply the operation method of opening the hanging, it is estimated that in addition to stealth, it is basically impossible for anyone to do it.

Therefore, when Xie Yunmeng saw Yan Muheng at this moment, he was as shocked as he saw a magician transform something incredible directly in front of his eyes! I can't imagine what happened in the ten minutes just now?

——

The man who was free from the shackles disguised himself and prepared to enter the living room to perform a big show in front of everyone, his facial expression was painful at the moment, and his body was deliberately stiffened into a frostbitten appearance.

The door behind him was locked, and the man realized that it might be the investigator in this house, and the investigators followed him, this thought made the man 100% vigilant in his heart, but he was not afraid, because he had a ready-made shield-Yan Muheng.

Yan Muheng's existence is a guarantee that men can move freely, but the premise is that he must be able to control Yan Muheng's thinking at any time. The man grabbed his time and reached for the door to open the living room.

At this time, it was like something had struck me all of a sudden? The nerves in the man's head felt a tingling pain, especially in the temples and on the top of the head, which was almost unbearable.

In this kind of weather, dragging the water pipe outside will quickly freeze, and it is impossible to continuously sprinkle water on the restaurant.

So Xie Yunmeng had to go to the roof to make sure, although the bad weather and the ice outside the house might hinder his movement, Xie Yunmeng believed that he could still climb to the roof.

He didn't go through the back door this time, in order to get a complete view of the corpse, he reached out and pushed the window pane that was about to fall towards the window, but there was still ice frozen together, even with the strength of Mr. Detective, there was no way to break the ice directly.

It seems that the ice in front of the house is much thicker than in the back. Xie Yunmeng thought, used his strength again, and then turned back to look for a tool in the room, the proprietress behind him reacted quickly, and immediately ran to the kitchen cabinet and took out a hammer, which she saw when she was cooking just now, there was a small storage cabinet in the kitchen, just under the cupboard.

Xie Yunmeng took the hammer, and after the proprietress returned to Xixi, she smashed the hammer on the ice behind the glass, and immediately the broken ice fell like rain.

He first smashed the ice around the corpse's skull, and then removed the entire window glass with the head, at this time, Mr. Criminal Police found that the corpse's head had been separated from the outside body, its cervical vertebrae had already been broken, the skin and flesh had become very fragile because of the freezing, and the neck was immediately broken with a slight pull.

Even the head with the glass was very terrifying, and it was impossible to throw it in the house like this, so Xie Yunmeng asked the proprietress to bring the blanket that had wrapped Xixi just now, covered up the things she had unloaded, and put them under the counter where Ms. Wen was doing business, so that the remaining three people in the room would not see it.

Then Xie Yunmeng let go of his hands and feet, and slammed the outside of the window frame with a large opening with a hammer, and the huge ice blocks outside shattered layer by layer, and finally when the whole body fell into the snow, Xie Yunmeng followed and turned outside.

He removed a whole piece of the ice wall, and the floor next to the corpse and the inside of the window frame was covered with broken ice, and the cold wind kept pouring into the house, and the three people in the room could only hug each other tightly to keep warm, and they were reluctant to go upstairs.

No one answered his question, and the girl felt like she was about to fall asleep, and it was at this moment that her body touched a warm arm......

When the people around her spoke, everything just now disappeared in front of the girl's eyes in an instant, and her eyes full of horror also saw the scene in reality, as well as the old man lying not far away.

——

The horror returned to Sister Wang, and this little girl, like Sissy, was always in a state of panic, but to a slightly better extent than Sissy, because she was at least able to trust the people around her.

"What's wrong with you? Uncomfortable? Sister Wang saw that the horror seemed to be unable to lift her spirits, and asked, but in exchange for an expression that had just woken up.

It seemed that she had dozed off just now, and as soon as she was called by Sister Wang, she immediately woke up and stared at the person who called her with wide eyes.

Sister Wang asked again: "Horror, are you uncomfortable?" ”

“…… No, I just ...... Fell asleep. The terrifying brain was still in a state of chaos, she was not lying, subconsciously she thought that she was indeed asleep just now, but not asleep.

Sister Wang hugged the horror into her arms again and said, "Since you are sleepy, let's sleep for a while, anyway, the affairs of this family will not end immediately." The middle-aged maid's tone revealed helplessness, and at this moment she was indeed waiting for the incident to end with a resigned attitude.

Terror no longer spoke, her small body shrunk into the arms of the people around her, but her eyes were still staring at Liu Qiaopu lying on the sofa, she was probably praying in her heart that the old criminal policeman could come back to life, how did this family suddenly become like this, Terror still can't figure it out.

Both of them seem to be ignoring Sissi who disappeared inexplicably at the moment, perhaps because this little girl herself is not the person they would worry about!

Yun Yeyao has been sitting next to Liu Qiao Pu, and from time to time he lowered his head to check the old man's physical condition, in fact, he was exchanging opinions with Liu Qiao Pu with facial expressions, the two of them did it very hidden, coupled with Yun Ye Yao's innate acting skills, even the people closest to them couldn't see a flaw.

Yun Yeyao was waiting like these people in the room, but the difference was that the others were waiting purposelessly, and they didn't know what was going to happen next. Thinking that the wind and snow will end soon can give them hope to go down the mountain.

Tang Meiya just wanted to comfort Yan Muheng, she didn't think this young man was like a murderer, but Yan Muheng misunderstood her words, thinking that Tang Meiya was reminding him that it was best not to make plans to run away when she said that Xie Yunmeng would come back soon.

Yan Muheng showed a wry smile towards Tang Meiya, his miserable white lips were closed and his head was lowered. I wasn't going to run away in the first place, so there was no need to explain anything to the old woman. But at the same time, Yan Muheng can also understand Tang Meiya's thinking in his heart, after all, for them now, he is very likely to be a suspect, and this suspicion cannot be avoided.

The three people hiding behind the bookshelf have their own hearts, Yaya is the first time to see the real Yan Muheng, although she has no way to trust this man, but out of her kind nature, she still hopes that Yan Muheng can get better.

Yaya saw that her grandmother no longer asked Yan Muheng what happened just now, so she asked herself: "Mr. Yan, can you tear off the disguise on your face?" ”

This is the most real idea of the little girl, she will not hide it, indeed, they all want to see what Yan Muheng looks like?

Yan Muheng said to Yaya with the side of his face that was attached to the scar: "You just think this is my true face, I don't know what my true face looks like?" Maybe this is the right fit for me. As he spoke, Yan Muheng stretched out his hand and pointed to the location of the scar.

Yaya didn't understand what he meant? Looking at her grandmother with strange eyes, Tang Meiya said, "Yaya, don't ask again, Mr. Yan needs to rest." ”

"Oh, I see." Yaya responded obediently, turned her head and lay on the only small square table in the study.

This small square table was solid wood, so heavy that there was no way to move it at all. When Yaya and Grandma moved just now, they all relied on pushing. Now Yaya was lying on top of it, staring at the floor.

Suddenly, she said to Tang Meiya as if she had seen something: "Grandma, there are scratches on the ground!" ”

"Huh?!" Tang Meiya glanced back suspiciously, her waist and legs were not as flexible as those of young people, so it was a little difficult to turn around between the narrow bookshelves.

The last two rows of bookshelves in the study seem to be particularly narrow because the books on them are not often read. Tang Meiya finally squatted in a position where Yaya could see, squinted her presbyopia, and searched the floor.

When Tang Meiya's ancestors and grandsons found traces under the small square table, Xie Yunmeng was actually already rushing back, and at this moment, it was close to noon, he settled the grocery store owner and his wife and Xixi, and immediately began to dispose of the corpses outside. Xie Yunmeng found a large bag (because the mountains are covered by heavy snow all year round, there are many woven bags for cabbage in the restaurant).

He packed the body into a woven bag, tied it tightly and buried it deep in the snow behind the restaurant, and then erased as much of the snow as he could, and after doing this, Xie Yunmeng glanced up at the sky.

The sky was still white, and it wouldn't be long before the snow would cover up the place where he buried his body, and no one except Xie Yunmeng would know where the body was outside the restaurant.

Just now he deceived the boss and his wife that he would take the corpse back to the treacherous house, so that they could live here in peace. It was impossible for the body to follow him, so he could only hide it and wait for the forensic doctor to go up the mountain to perform an autopsy.

Xie Yunmeng calculated, until now, not counting this morning, they have stayed in the treacherous house for a day and two nights, from the mystery of the blood house at the beginning, to the discovery of unknown corpses now, five people have been killed in the treacherous house, the housekeeper, Meng Qi'er, and the middle-aged woman who survived the avalanche, as well as the corpse in front of him, Xie Yunmeng has really come into contact with it.

Only Shu Xue's corpse has always had doubts. The detective locked the back door of the restaurant and returned to the treacherous house, thinking about Shu Xue repeatedly in his mind.

Shu Xue in Meng Qi'er's room died in a strange way, no one touched it at all, but her head fell from her body by itself. From Liu Qiaopu's narration, Xie Yunmeng had no way to imagine how the murderer killed Shu Xue anyway.

And the most important thing is that Xie Yunmeng didn't believe what Wen Manman said later at all, no matter whether Wen Manman was lying or not, she had a 50% chance that Shu Xue was pretending, that is, there was a 50% chance that the corpse in Meng Qier's room was Wen Manman.

Thinking of the corpse, I can't help but think of the living Shu Xue who I saw next to Yan Muheng, that face, Xie Yunmeng and the corpse in Meng Qi'er's room have been compared repeatedly, although there is no difference or obvious suspicion so far, but Mr. Criminal Police can't let go, he feels that things are not so simple.

Regarding the above questions, Xie Yunmeng also asked Yun Yeyao last night, but Yun Yeyao's answer made him even more puzzled, and he couldn't understand it no matter how he thought about it.

Yun Yeyao only said one sentence, Wen Manman is real.

Xie Yunmeng's timely return helped Tang Meiya's ancestors and grandchildren, and they were worried about how to continue to move the small square table? And Tang Meiya has old arms and legs, it is not easy to lie on the floor to find the hidden button, although Yaya also helps, but the little girl does not seem very powerful in the dark.

The two of them searched for a long time but did not find the goal they imagined.

After Xie Yunmeng entered the study, he brought in a breath of cold air, which made Yaya instantly shrink her body and blurted out: "It's so cold!" ”

Tang Meiya hurriedly covered her mouth and said, "Be quiet, so that people outside will suspect us when they hear it." ”

"Hmm." Hearing Yaya's vague answer, Tang Meiya removed her hand, although she promised to assist in the investigation, but once this kind of thing is suspected, even if there are a hundred mouths, it can't be explained clearly. Besides, the unfinished plan, how can Mr. Detective explain it to others? So you can only keep a low profile.

Tang Meiya said to Xie Yunmeng: "Officer Xie, I ......"

"Grandma Tang, it's okay if you call me Xiaomeng, everyone calls me that." Xie Yunmeng said.

"Uh, okay, Xiao Meng, Mr. Yan's hand seems to be very serious, I didn't check it out just now, the wound on his wrist hurt the nerve, if it is not treated in time, I am afraid that it will leave sequelae in the future." Should he stay with the people in the restaurant, at least they should have a medicine kit on hand, don't you think? ”

After Xie Yunmeng looked at the condition of Yan Muheng's hands, he thought that what Grandma Tang said was not wrong, and they couldn't ignore the injured just because they were investigating the case. Xie Yunmeng said to Yan Muheng: "That's it, now those people are in a panic, I will go to the living room with you first, I will enter the dining room while they are not paying attention, and say that you were attacked by the murderer and injured, and Xiao Yao will help you deal with the wounds." ”

"Officer Xie, don't be so troublesome, I'll just go by myself, you can protect Grandma Tang and Yaya here!" Who knows where the killer will come from? It's a trifle that I was attacked! If they are attacked, they really have no ability to resist! ”

"I just need to say that you saved me out there, I think with Mr. Yun's ingenuity, he will definitely think of a reason to help me get through."

“…… Alright then," Xie Yunmeng hesitated slightly, and said, "Remember not to disturb the teacher, and listen to Xiao Yao's arrangement!" ”

'It's not a normal departure, absolutely not!' Yan Muheng didn't know why he thought like this? However, he felt that this idea was correct, something must have happened to Yun Yeyao and Yanagihashi Pu!

Mustering up the courage to walk into the restaurant, Yan Muheng slowly opened his eyes, although he was already prepared in his heart, but at first glance when he saw the empty restaurant, Yan Muheng still felt a burst of melancholy and sadness.

There was no excessive fear because it was daytime and there were no horrible corpses in the restaurant. Yan Muheng's gaze stayed on the couch, where a person like a wax figure was left.

There was no flaw on the delicate face, and the skin was as smooth as fine satin, Yan Muheng walked over and gently stroked the 'satin' in front of him with his hand, and the warmth of his hand made him unable to extricate himself.

'Maybe that's how it felt years ago, I'm not wrong......

Grabbing the fleeting feelings in his heart, Yan Muheng bent down and sat down beside the lying man, and reached out to hold him into his arms. He didn't care if anyone would suddenly break in, even if it was a murderer, he would do his best to protect the person in his arms.

"My eternal heart ......" muttered words that others couldn't hear, and the fear on Yan Muheng's face gradually receded, replaced by an expression like first love, which was of course expressed unconsciously, and even Yan Muheng himself was not aware of it.

And the 'Eternal Heart' in his arms was not so relaxed, perhaps some unexpected situation made him very uncomfortable, his brows were furrowed, his lips were slightly open, and the whole person felt very tight.

Yan Muheng also found out about his state, lowered his head, the man who had just arrived looked at the person who was acting more and more painful, and probed his forehead with his hand, the temperature in his hand was very hot, Yan Muheng was shocked to realize that this person who had been catching a cold from the beginning finally couldn't bear the cold and fright, and had a fever.

'How could they leave him here alone?' Where did the old detective go? ’

Secretly worried, Yan Muheng raised his eyes and looked around, wanting to find some medicine and water, Xie Yunmeng said that there was a medicine box in the restaurant, and he would not talk nonsense.

Liu Qiaopu finally couldn't help it, the old man didn't want to talk to Xie Yunmeng about the feelings that the criminal police hadn't realized yet, but now, the old man had to say it, because he really loved Mei Xiaoxiao.

"Xie Yunmeng! Where do you put your little ones?!! ”

The first time he heard Liu Qiaopu call him by his name, Xie Yunmeng was also stunned, he was stunned, and his astonishment was overflowing, what did the teacher mean by saying such a thing? Are you too worried about Xiaoxiao? Must let him stay by Xiaoxiao's side to make the teacher feel at ease?

Xie Yunmeng wanted to open his mouth to explain a few words, but when he saw the teacher's face, he swallowed back the words he spoke, Liu Qiaopu's expression was filled with the helplessness of hatred and iron, this kind of expression, Xie Yunmeng had never seen it, the teacher must be concerned about something, and he didn't know?

For a moment, the thought turned into a question and spit out from the mouth of the criminal policeman: "Teacher, are you blaming me for doing something wrong?" ”

Liu Qiao Pu raised his head and said, "You were wrong, so now you have to correct it!" The only way to correct it is for you to accompany me by Mei Xiaoxiao's side, and Yun Yeyao, let him be with Tang Meiya's ancestors! ”

"No way!"

Xie Yunmeng's answer still did not have any hesitation, which made Liu Qiaopu see the facts clearly in an instant, and his hard work seemed to be in vain.

"Teacher, Xiao Yao is different from Xiao Xiao, Xiao Xiao is professionally trained and very experienced in dealing with murderers. And Xiao Yao is completely impossible to confront the murderer head-on, his force value is too weak, so Xiao Yao must stay by your side, so I can rest assured! We are confidants, friends, and ...... I don't want him to ...... anymore."

"You don't want him to be attacked by murderers again, do you? Don't think I can't read your mind! Yun Yeyao is a 1.8 meter man, even if he has no professional combat training, it is impossible to be completely powerless in the face of the murderer, no matter how powerful Xiaoxiao is, she is also a woman, in case of special circumstances, it will affect her life! Besides, what happened to Yun Yeyao being attacked by the murderer? Is he a man afraid of anything? ”

When Tang Meiya pulled away her granddaughter, Xie Yunmeng also turned on the small flashlight at the same time, which was a spare item he hung on the key ring, and the battery in it could be used for a long time.

By the dim light, the two women only glanced at the underside of the bounced wooden plank, and Yaya was almost stunned, and just as she wanted to scream, her mouth was covered by her grandmother again.

Tang Meiya was quite calm, although her face was already pale and her hands were trembling, but the sense of security brought by Mr. Criminal Police made her not lose her mind, Tang Meiya took Yaya back and said: "Yaya, close your eyes and don't look, Xiaomeng will deal with it!" ”

Indeed, as soon as they took two steps back, Xie Yunmeng's tall body was already in front of them, like a guardian spirit, isolating the fragile woman from the terrifying place created by the murderer.

A rectangular hole in the floor was revealed, not deep, and the light of the flashlight shone through it, and a staircase leading down to the dark depths could be faintly seen.

Why is it vaguely seen? Because at the top of the staircase, there was something that almost blocked the entire hole, so that the person standing in the study could not see the whole face of the staircase, and where it led.

It was a white skeleton that had long since lost its flesh and skin, covered with dust, and judging by its appearance, it was clear that this place had not been opened for many years, and perhaps no one had been here since the death incident.

There was no stench emanating from corpses in the murky air beneath the floor. And the white bones can be described as 'clean and clean', and there are still faded clothes and pants on it, looking at the appearance of the clothes and pants, this should be a man.

He died in agony, his jawbone opening to an incredible extent, as if he was still crying out for help, and the rest of his facial bones were deformed as a result.

Xie Yunmeng gently lifted the clothes on the chest of the corpse, and almost all the ribs in his chest were broken, as if they had been broken by someone with something hard, and after smashing it more than once, several ribs were broken into several pieces, and there were also cracks on the sternum, shoulder blades, and the upper arm bone of his right hand.

Xie Yunmeng gently opened the body of the corpse with his hand, observing the left hand he was pressed underneath, the bone of the left hand was not broken, there seemed to be something between his fingers, Xie Yunmeng reached out and wanted to take out the thing, but the pressure was too tight, unless the entire corpse bone was pulled out, otherwise there was no way to get it.

Yun Yeyao stood up and was about to walk into the kitchen, he was very vague about the location of the others, Yan Muheng couldn't help but have some doubts that Yun Yeyao didn't want to tell him the truth.

didn't want to be alone, Yan Muheng hurriedly followed Yun Yeyao, and Yan Muheng was very concerned about Mr. Actor's failure to answer his question positively, and it can also be said that he was very worried. He was afraid that Yun Yeyao was also a person with a past lineage.

Yan Muheng, the bloodline of the Anze family, was clear, but the biggest problem he didn't realize was precisely in himself, and Yun Yeyao also wanted to take advantage of him, so he appeared here alone.

From the point of view of action, Yun Yeyao is ready to stay in Yan Muheng's way, that is to say, he does not plan to act with Liu Qiaopu, the initial act is just to advance this step, of course Liu Qiaopu knows it, but Xie Yunmeng can't know that Yun Yeyao's special operation can only be known by the old man alone, otherwise, Xie Yunmeng's worries will cause obstacles. This can also be understood from the conversation between Liu Qiaopu and Xie Yunmeng last night.

After entering the kitchen, Yun Ye took out the medicine and gauze placed there from the pantryboard, why did these things put in the kitchen cupboard? Yan Muheng didn't doubt it, maybe it was because his mind at the moment was all on Yun Yeyao, more specifically on his thoughts.

But in fact, the medicine was prepared in advance, and when Yan Muheng was unconscious in the entrance, Yun Yeyao secretly moved over from somewhere, so he saw Yan Muheng's actions when he was in a coma, before he entered the study and was discovered.

Once a crime occurs, Yun Yeyao will become two people who are completely different from usual, shrewd, wise, cautious and delicate in thinking, and do not let go of any subtle clues, so he pays attention to all the actions around him as much as possible.

What happened before and after Yan Muheng's coma had already made Yun Yeyao determine his most important judgment, so he decided to implement the second step and began to arrange for everyone to leave with Liu Qiaopu.

In the small space, Sister Wang hugged the horror tightly, she had been staying by the old detective's side, waiting for Liu Qiaopu to regain his mobility, at this moment Liu Qiaopu had woken up, although his body could not move, but his brain was very clear.

The first thing Liuqiao Pu did after waking up was to let everyone come here, and the old man Yun Ye Yao seemed to have arranged other actions to let him leave, and now, the survivors in the treacherous house all thought that the next action would be led by Liu Qiao Pu, and it was impossible for them to extend the dominance to Yun Ye Yao, including the demons hidden in the shadows.

Hidden in the shadows are two demons, one who hasn't figured out who he really is, but is cruel and intelligent. And the other is just a little devil, the cannon fodder who is watched in the night shadows, and it is he who brings Xixi to a place of danger.

Probably because Liu Qiaopu had an accident, the cook's mother-in-law also lifted her spirits, and she no longer looked sick, maybe he thought that he could still play a little role, or help Sister Wang take care of everyone, etc., so he had to cheer up.

The old woman was the eldest person in the family, and she was accompanying Sister Wang and was staring at the space they were in now with a curious look, because even the cook herself had not been here, and it was opened by Yun Yeyao unintentionally.

The cook asked, "Mr. Liu, is it really safe here?" ”

Yanagihashi Pu didn't answer his question directly, but said, "This is the last place where it is possible to find the hostess, and if the hostess is really hiding here, I think it should be safe." ”

"However, the hostess she ......" The cook stopped talking, because she saw Liu Qiao Pu turning her head, as if she didn't want to speak anymore, and in view of Liu Qiao Pu's current physical condition, she didn't want to say more and ask more.

It was very warm in the house and the air conditioning here should have not happened to anything and was working well. Qin Sen, Lian Fan and Lu Haoyu all shrank to the side with helpless expressions, no wonder, under the restrictions of the surrounding walls, they couldn't shrink their bodies!

Lu Haoyu complained: "How long are we going to stay here?" The way out will not be blocked by the murderer! His concern was the same as that of most of the people in the room at the moment.

Sister Wang picked up and said, "Grandpa Liu, do you have any way?" ”

"Then what do you mean by you asking me to pull up my clothes and look at it?" Shan Mingze was suddenly angry, he turned his head and yelled at Lu Haoyu.

Lu Haoyu still ignored his attitude, sat there and said, "Because you have a strip of cloth wrapped around your face, I want to confirm your identity, didn't you say that the murderer might disguise himself as someone else?" ”

Lian Fan also sat back beside Shan Mingze and nodded, agreeing with Lu Haoyu's statement. Although Qin Sen on the other side did not speak, he, like the little girls, looked at Shan Mingze with a look at the murderer.

Liu Qiaopu took their words and said: "Mr. Shan, don't be impatient, everyone is reasonable, only by explaining your actions in detail can you make others believe you." You have to understand that what happened here is a murder, not a trivial matter, and everyone who acts strangely will be suspected by everyone, and you are not alone. ”

"But, Grandpa Liu, I really just chased the murderer here, I didn't lie! What more do you want me to say? Shan Mingze said to Liu Qiaopu as if pleading.

Liu Qiao Pu said: "Then what's the matter with the injury on your face?" Caused by fighting the murderer? And you have injuries on your elbows and above your knees. ”

"I fell while running down the stairs," Mr. Shan said, "and I accidentally rolled down the stairs, and a deep cut was made on my face, and the injuries on my elbow and knee were also made at that time." ”

After speaking, in order to show his sincerity, Shan Mingze untied the strip of cloth on his face, and sure enough, under the eyes covered by messy hair, there was a deep and long wound, almost directly across the center of the nose bone, and the epidermis turned outward, and even the bones of Bai Sensen inside could be seen.

Liu Qiaopu instantly propped up his body, he seemed to want to say something, but after hesitating for a moment, he controlled his emotions and said, "Bandage your face, I still have a little clean gauze here, which was brought out of the kitchen, and there are painkillers, do you want it?" ”

"No need, Grandpa Liu, just give me gauze." Shan Mingze was obviously afraid that the painkillers were poisonous, so he only needed gauze.
