Volume XII
Twenty-three Mysterious Oceans
The fog is like a white demon, like an evil emperor on this sea, everything around it is occupied by it, and it seems to want to swallow more places, the 'Elrank' is like a child who inadvertently intrudes into its territory, this demon will certainly not let go of such a guy who does not know the height of the sky, so it gradually stretched out its clutches to this luxury cruise ship...... The ship was surrounded by it little by little, and at first the shadow of the ship could be faintly seen, then the head was swallowed whole, and then it was the turn of the hull, and finally the ship disappeared as if it had suddenly disappeared......
The passengers were like dolls abandoned by God, dazed and at a loss, panicked, screaming, and crying one after another, as if they had broken into the realm of death, the computer could not determine the location, could not even send a distress signal, the mobile phone and telephone were all turned into useless scrap metal as if they had been discussed, and the ship was imprisoned by the sea and could not move...... However, when everyone was trembling with fear, a person stood in front of the cockpit and quietly looked directly at the sea, his expression was not afraid, but his face was relaxed and disapproving that person was Cheng Shuai, and Li Ya behind him looked at him in surprise:
"Mr. Detective, what's wrong with you?"
Cheng Shuai didn't look back, still arrogantly staring at the sea, after a long time, he slowly lowered his head, his body trembling slightly:
"Hum hum hum - hey, hey, hey, hey, hahahaha! Laughing to death! That's a fucking big price......"
"Mr. Detective, what are you talking about?" Li Ya subconsciously took a few steps back, and looked at Cheng Shuai with trepidation, "Are you okay?" ”
"Hahahaha! It's okay, Lao Tzu just thought of something and thought it was funny. ”
Li Ya swallowed his saliva, suspecting that Cheng Shuai was also enchanted, and carefully retreated to a place farther away from him:
"Yes, yes? What is the matter? ”
"It's nothing, it's just that a friend of mine deliberately arranged a few wonderful plays in order to entertain me and Tang Peng's idiot - hahahaha! And it even put the lives of the passengers of the entire ship on the line...... The purpose is just to play a game with us. Cheng Shuai turned around slowly, tilted his head to look at Li Ya, buried his head again, and laughed alone, "Hahahaha!" Do you think it's funny? ”
"Huh? Excuse me, is that friend of yours ......?"
Cheng Shuai raised his head and stared at him intently, his expression became blurred, the wind slowly sent the dense fog on the sea in, and it was like a light coat on Cheng Shuai, and in Li Ya's opinion, Cheng Shuai suddenly became more mysterious, no, that expression should be terrifying......
"Bump", the door was suddenly kicked open, Li Ya was so frightened that he fell to the ground, and then saw Li Han walk in proudly:
"Cut, return to the police! I can't open the door during the day, so it might as well work with my foot - I'll name it 'Tried and Tested Door Opening'! Wait, that's a great name......"
Wu Wenfei led several policemen to walk in one after another, followed by Tang Peng and his party and Zhang Lu with an expressionless face, looking at the kicked hatch, Tang Peng sweated:
"Suddenly I started to wonder if the door of our detective agency was made of diamond...... I knew I should have ordered an extra one for backup - huh? Cheng Shuai, why are you here? We thought you were missing, what's going on......"
Tang Peng hadn't finished asking, Liu Min had already rushed up and hugged Cheng Shuai, his eyes were so excited that he couldn't speak, Guozi didn't know whether to be happy or sad, but looked at them with a complicated expression, Chang Jing looked at Guozi, then looked at Cheng Shuai and Liu Min, and laughed secretly on the side, Yuan Longfei glanced at Cheng Shuai with heavy eyebrows, and then shook his head to the side slightly, Xun Qian saw Li Ya sitting on the ground with a frightened expression, couldn't help but smile, stepped forward and politely helped him up:
"What's going on? Why did you drive the boat here? ”
"Thank you." Li Ya stood up embarrassedly, turned his head to look at Cheng Shuai and the white sea of fog behind him, and his face became a little ugly, "I don't know what's wrong with me, I felt a little dazed last night, and after Mr. Cheng Shuai woke me up this morning, I found that I had driven the boat here, but I didn't remember anything (and my face hurt inexplicably)." ”
Tang Peng walked next to Cheng Shuai, looked at the sea through the bridge without a windshield, white, nothing could be seen except a white sea, the sky seemed to be connected with the sea, blending into a white world, he frowned, turned around and asked Li Ya:
"Where is this?"
Li Ya lowered her head, her face couldn't help sweating, and it took a long time to spit out a few words:
"'The Sea of Elrank', Mystery ...... The Lost Ocean ......"
Twenty-four games
"The Lost Ocean?" Tang Peng lowered his head slightly, thinking with a serious expression, everyone in the cab looked at the sea at the same time, and they were all stunned, looking at the two detectives with different expressions, waiting for them to come up with ideas, Tang Peng slowly raised his head, glanced at Cheng Shuai with a complicated expression, and sighed softly, "He played too much this time......
Cheng Shuai tilted his head disappreciably, looked at the sea arrogantly, and said lightly:
"Damn, it's not just going overboard, it's a fucking bastard! Damn, I was going to settle it with him privately after I got off the ship—but now it seems that I can only finish it with him......"
Everyone present looked at them, except for Zhang Lu, who was still expressionless, everyone was puzzled, Wu Wenfei held his eyelids, I don't know what they were talking about, Chang Jing stared at Tang Peng and blinked strangely, Guozi and Liu Min looked at Cheng Shuai curiously, Yuan Longfei frowned slightly, silent and did not speak, Xun Qian stood up, waiting for their explanation, Li Ya was even more confused, his eyes wandered repeatedly when Tang Peng and Cheng Shuai saw him, Li Hanmu was there, and scratched his head hard:
"You two stupid people are talking about birds, huh? It's really ...... if you're old and learn to pretend to be mysterious from others, and don't hurry up and explain it to us."
"Bump", a crisp boxing sound sounded, and when he looked at Li Han again, he was already squatting on the ground in pain, holding the big bag on his head with both hands, and Cheng Shuai looked at him with a dark face:
"Lao Tzu said, don't connect me when you call Tang Peng stupid - readers, although I want to tell you directly who we are referring to, but considering that the author has to cheat the number of words, no, it should be taking into account the development of the future, so I have to ask everyone to wait for the time being, and also, if there are young single female readers, please contact me, I am applying for my first love, the conditions are not limited, as long as it is beautiful, Lao Tzu's phone is ......"
Before Cheng Shuai finished speaking, he was beaten by Tang Peng, Wu Wenfei and Guozi, Li Han also secretly kicked a few times from time to time, Liu Min hurriedly blocked them in distress, and the rest of them were silently sweating on the side, completely speechless......
"Alright, leave that idiot alone, let's start with Mr. Bird's death." Tang Peng exhaled, held his glasses, and said solemnly, "I said that although we have deduced the general method and the facts of the case from the flaws of the prisoner, the murderer did not have any negligence in the crime so that we could find out the relevant evidence, so all this I am talking about now can only be speculation before there is no evidence - Bird's death was indeed due to eating poisonous food, and this food was what he ate at the banquet in the main cabin!" ”
"Wait, but we have tested those foods, and they are indeed not poisonous!" A few policemen who followed Wu Wenfei couldn't help but ask.
"Cut, don't you know that some poisons are only useful when they are mixed together?" Cheng Shuai glanced at them disdainfully, although the other party was very unconvinced, but after Cheng Shuai said this, they all seemed to understand something, nodding silently, Cheng Shuai suddenly stretched out his thumb and showed his signature laugh, "Hum hum hum hey - hahahaha!" Judging from the strange herbological knowledge that this great genius stole from Lao Tzu's perverted master, the murderer used 'Forget Worry Grass' and 'Long Lan Gen', these two plants become a highly poisonous medicine once they are mixed, but they have not been confirmed by the medical community at present, and the strange thing is that they appeared in the ingredient list of the big cake and the red wine in the banquet that Yuan Longfei gave to everyone - the murderer should be very familiar with Po De (as it seems to be called) likes to drink red wine, so ......"
"Third brother! No, Detective Cheng Shuai, please make it clear, Bird is not the only one who has drunk red wine and eaten cake! Why are they okay? If you want to wrong, please find a decent excuse! Yuan Longfei immediately interrupted him and looked at Cheng Shuai angrily and gently.
Cheng Shuai glanced at him, and his face, which had never been serious, became serious:
"Fourth brother, let's talk about the grievances between me and you, but now, Lao Tzu is just talking about things, and he doesn't mean to wronged anyone, and I remember that the cake was given to everyone by you on behalf of Sui Binxi's idiot, so you don't need to be nervous."
"I ......" Yuan Longfei seemed to realize something, and his face began to sweat uncontrollably.
Wu Wenfei yawned and said to Tang Peng lazily:
"It seems that the two of them seem to have some grievances, or you should explain it to everyone - why did Bird die only after drinking the red wine at the banquet and eating the cake?"
"This ...... Mr. Bird's death can be attributed to the kiss he had with 'Jiang Yuqin'. Tang Peng looked at Cheng Shuai and Yuan Longfei, and there seemed to be some confusion on his face, but he quickly returned to normal, and continued, "Before I explain, let me tell you a very strange thing, among the people who ate cake and red wine at the banquet at that time, several of them were in a state of cold, and they all felt very unwell afterwards, and their stomachs hurt for a long time...... What's going on? In fact, there is a righteous confrontation where evil is raging in this world, and there is a bright and bright chaos in the dark - in the same way, there will be an antidote to poison, we have surveyed the people present, and they all said that they smelled a very strange fragrance when eating cake - if you guess correctly, the fragrance should be the murderer spraying the antidote in the air for everyone to inhale, but unfortunately, those few people who are catching a cold only inhale a small amount because of a blocked nose, But what's even more unfortunate is that Mr. Bird happened to be kissing when the murderer sprayed the antidote, no, someone should have suddenly pressed his lips - as everyone knows, people habitually hold their breath when kissing (I don't know if it's true), so Bird couldn't inhale the antidote at that time and was poisoned to death......"
Several policemen slapped their palms as if they had suddenly realized:
"I see! The murderers are Sui Binxi and the fake Miss Jiang Yuqin, but ...... Why did they kill Bird? Who is the real identity of 'Jiang Yuqin'? ”
Tang Peng turned his head and glanced at Cheng Shuai, and the two of them looked at the foggy 'Erlanke Sea Area' at the same time, and their eyes were incomprehensible:
"One of the 'shadowless' (bird shadows) - the Thousand-Faced Demon (what kind of demon) Sui Binxi."
