Case 2: The Mystery of the Murder Room Volume 10
Nineteen cleared the clouds
(Early the next morning) Chen Yi has been sent to the hospital for recuperation, Cheng Shuai and Tang Peng and some police continue to seriously search for clues in room 608, the police are still apprehensive about Chen Yi's inarticulate account, some have confirmed that this is a ghost asking for life, Cheng Tang was even more frightened and asked the police to protect day and night, the guests in the hotel have asked to check out, the whole case is still at a loss.
"Damn! Come and help, too! Cheng Shuai yelled at Wu Wenfei, who was lying on his side lazily with his legs crossed.
"What's there to look up? It's a ghost asking for your life! Wu Wenfei replied lazily.
"Ask for your size! It's homicide! β
"Did you find anything after all this search?" Wu Wenfei said without turning his head.
Cheng Shuai wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it, so he had to stand in silence. Tang Peng frowned when he heard the conversation, and his originally serious face became even more serious.
"It's this teddy bear again! These girls love to play with this ......when they're so old," a policeman picked up a teddy bear that had fallen to the ground and dusted it off, ready to put it back in the cupboard.
"Wait!" Cheng Shuai hurriedly walked over and grabbed the teddy bear and looked at it himself, "This teddy bear also appeared in the first few cases?" β
The policeman was taken aback and said with some dissatisfaction:
"Yes, the waiter said that this bear seems to be very popular with girls, and every time it is found on the floor next to the bed, probably the deceased was so frightened by the ghost that he fell to the ground when he was sleeping......"
Cheng Shuai looked at the teddy bear repeatedly, suddenly snapped his fingers as if he had found something, and then threw down the teddy bear and ran to the TV to look at himself, got up and clapped his hands excitedly, and then ran around again, lying down from time to time to watch, after a toss he stood up and turned his back to everyone, standing quietly in place, motionless, everyone looked at him strangely, I don't know what he was doing, he was puzzled, and suddenly heard him burst out with a burst of laughter, and then turned around confidently:
"Lao Tzu already knows the murderer's methods of killing and who he is!"
"What?" Wu Wenfei and several policemen were taken aback, "How did you kill someone?" Who is the murderer? β
"Hum ham ha-hey, hey!" Cheng Shuai showed his signature laugh and said mysteriously to the police. "You know this tonight, so everyone is not allowed to leave this hotel, there is a good show tonight!"
Saying that, he ran out, leaving everyone puzzled, Tang Peng picked up the teddy bear he threw on the ground and looked at it carefully, his face suddenly changed color, and then he looked around the room like Cheng Shuai, Wu Wenfei couldn't stand it, got up and asked:
"It was him just now, and now it's you again - what are you two doing?"
Tang Peng didn't answer, continued to observe, and after a while, he suddenly let out a long breath, then slowly stood up, relaxed his muscles, stretched his waist, turned around and saw that everyone was looking at him curiously, and was stunned for a moment:
"What's wrong?"
"We want to know if you found something (you didn't even listen to what Lao Tzu said)." Wu Wenfei was a little unhappy.
"Huh?" Tang Peng pretended to be confused and replied, "No, isn't that stupid guy of Cheng Shuai already unraveled, let's wait until tonight to watch him perform!" β
Several policemen booed and continued to do their own thing, Wu Wenfei's expression was a little suspicious:
"You really don't know?"
Tang Peng didn't answer, just walked back to his room with a relaxed expression. Wu Wenfei felt a little strange, and went out with him, seeing that Li Han was happily preparing to go out, he hurriedly stopped:
"Li Han! Wait a minute! β
Li Han was stunned for a moment, and looked at Wu Wenfei curiously:
"What's the matter?"
"Where are you going? Cheng Shuai, that idiot, let us not allow anyone to go out! β
"Don't worry about this, he asked me to go out!" Li Han said triumphantly, "As for where to go, you'll know this at night!" β
Running out without looking back, Wu Wenfei scratched his head, he couldn't understand what the people in this detective agency were doing, he just felt a little sleepy, so he yawned and secretly ran back to the room to sleep......
Twenty truths revealed
Maybe he was too tired, Wu Wenfei was woken up by a colleague It was already more than ten o'clock in the evening, the colleague hurriedly invited him to room 608, saying that the detective named Cheng Shuai asked everyone to gather and explain the truth to everyone, Wu Wenfei agreed, and lazily followed him to room 608, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Cheng Shuai pretending to be there and said to everyone:
"People always think that what they see is the truth, but they don't know what kind of truth is hidden behind this so-called fact - let me uncover the truth about this murder house for you tonight!"
Wu Wenfei found that the relevant personnel had arrived, and even Luo Xinyue, the sister of the deceased last time, was also invited, everyone was listening attentively, and some people actually had worship in their eyes, and they didn't feel sweating, and the policeman quietly walked over to find a place to sit down, and suddenly saw Tang Peng also sitting next to him without saying a word, calmly watching the living treasure speech:
"The six deceased apparently all died by suicide, and indeed some of them did commit suicide, but that was because they had seen some horrible phenomena in this room before they died! Now, let's experience what the dead experienced that night! In order to be more intuitive, I specially asked our assistant Chang Jing to perform for everyone - please see! β
Everyone looked along Cheng Shuai's hand, and saw Chang Jing sitting on the bed looking at the wall clock in the room with a scared expression, like making a movie, Cheng Shuai added a narration on the side:
"Fear is a normal reaction of people, especially when a woman or an old man is alone in a room that is rumored to be haunted, although this girl doesn't believe in any ghosts, but once she is there, she is definitely scared in her heart - the performance is very good, that's it, Chang Jing's sister come on - then, the wall clock is like twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, because it has not yet arrived, so please imagine that it is already midnight......"
Suddenly, the phone rang, Chang Jing's body trembled, and she instinctively prepared to listen, but found that the caller ID was blank! Chang Jing became a little scared, at this time, the light dimmed suddenly, and then flashed, everyone held their breath, Chang Jing's body trembled more and more, and Cheng Shuai's narration sounded again:
"Mysterious phone calls, flickering lights, these don't seem so scary when so many of us get together, but when a girl or an old man is alone in a rumored haunted room, her fear should be contemplated, but this is just a prelude, please keep your eyes open and appreciate what happens next......"
At this time, the TV that had been turned off suddenly turned on, and the scene that appeared inside made everyone feel frightened, a girl in white stood on the windowsill of this room with an expressionless face, leaned forward slowly, and then jumped ...... I only heard the two of them screaming in horror at the same time, one was Chang Jing and the other was Cheng Tang, everyone hurriedly coaxed him, and after a while, he calmed down, and Cheng Shuai's "play" continued to perform: I saw that something that surprised everyone even more happened, the girl in white stood on the windowsill, the same action as on TV, Chang Jing seemed to have completely collapsed, sat on the bed, and 'narrator':
"Think about it, if it were you, would you be so frightened that you didn't dare to continue watching in this situation, and what scared you even more was that no matter how loud you shouted, the people outside the door never reacted, what would you do in this desperate situation? So, someone chose to die! But those who didn't have time to react or were bold, what did they see next? - Let's continue watching ......"
I saw a teddy bear slowly crawling out of the cabinet and staggering towards Chang Jing, who trembled and was forced to the windowsill, and suddenly, the originally closed window opened! Everyone held their breath, and some people covered their eyes and didn't dare to look again.
"Cards! Very beautiful! Cheng Shuai shouted like a director to stop, and praised Chang Jing, "The performance is great!" Sister Chang Jing, you sit on the bed first and rest. β
Chang Jing grimaced at everyone, then sat in the middle of everyone, and listened to Cheng Shuai continue to explain:
"At that time, when Chen Yi vaguely told us about her experience last night, she kept shouting 'bear, bear', I didn't understand it at the time, but now I believe everyone understands what she meant!"
"So, how did all this come about?" Someone asked.
Cheng Shuai smiled mysteriously and said:
"Actually, these are very simple, and they may not have been possible before, but in the modern era of full computerization, it is not difficult to do these things - let's applaud the people behind these special effects: computer genius Wu Jingbo and Li Han, who persuaded him to star for free!"
Cheng Shuai saluted the camera and applauded alone, and everyone sweated.
"What! Computer?! Everyone was taken aback, and although they understood something, there were still some things they didn't understand, and they were eagerly waiting for explanations.
"The TV, the window, the lighting, and the soundproofing equipment can all be controlled by the computer, and as for the girl on the windowsill - you take a closer look at the wall in the lower right corner of the TV, there is a hole the size of a pinhole, which is actually a projection hole, and the curtain just happens to be a projection cloth!"
Several policemen looked at themselves according to the direction given by Cheng Shuai, and it was indeed as Cheng Shuai said. Suddenly, Luo Xinyue stood up and asked Cheng Shuai eagerly and angrily:
"Who did all this?"
Cheng Shuai motioned for everyone to comfort Luo Xinyue to calm down, and then said:
"I believe that everyone involved in the investigation of this case already knows the murderer, and there is only one person who can watch the victim's reaction from a distance and control these things - if it weren't for the fact that he had to face his feelings calmly as a detective, Lao Tzu would have deceived him to a place where no one was there this morning and tortured him with the ten tortures of the Manchu Dynasty......"
Wu Wenfei and several policemen immediately turned their heads to Tang Zhongzhi, only to see that he looked innocent:
"It's all just your guess, and besides, how do you know this, and why am I doing thisβthey don't have a holiday with me?"
"Do you remember the four tapes you showed me?" Tang Peng stood up and said, "When the girl who appeared inside committed suicide, the calendar in the room showed the same date!" In other words, the suicide video was recorded and added in advance! As for what snowflakes, and the phone without caller ID, for you, a computer expert, it is completely pediatric - Manager Cheng once said that you were responsible for the design and installation of the computer equipment and monitors in the room, if you guessed correctly, you installed some additional things in this room at that time - projection heads, which can operate TVs, windows, lights, and telephone wires and some equipment, as well as the teddy bear that can be remotely controlled, if you guess correctly, These things that weren't originally part of the installation plan have your fingerprints on them! Your intention to install these things may be just fun or boring, trying to scare the guests, but when you accidentally record the suicide of Cheng Tang's ex-girlfriend, and combine it with your equipment to successfully scare a person to death, you become addicted, and then turn the room into a murder room! β
Tang Zhongzhi didn't answer with a gloomy face, Cheng Shuai glanced at Tang Peng unconvinced (you promised Lao Tzu not to interfere), Tang Peng turned his head and pretended not to see it, Luo Xinyue rushed over angrily and punched and kicked Tang Zhongzhi......
When Tang Zhongzhi was handcuffed and was about to return to the police station with the police, Cheng Shuai walked up to him expressionlessly:
"Why do you want to 'kill' someone?"
Tang Zhongzhi and Cheng Shuai looked at each other for a while, and sneered:
He was right, the human psyche is so fragile! I always have a fear of what I don't know - every time I see their distorted faces, I feel an inexplicable excitement on their frightened expressions! Hahahaha...... Can't stop the ...... Hahahaha......"
Cheng Shuai didn't speak with a dark face, suddenly, Tang Zhongzhi seemed to feel that his body was being pressed by a thousand catties, getting heavier and heavier, unable to speak at all, and then he couldn't even breathe, he felt like he was dying, his face gradually became terrifying, and his body collapsed suddenly...... Tang Peng stopped Cheng Shuai:
"Enough, let the police deal with him (I can't imagine that this stupid guy hasn't used martial arts for so long, and his internal strength is still so powerful)!"
......
(Detective Agency) Chen Yi 'touched' and kicked open the door of the detective agency, panting and said to the frightened Cheng Shuai, Tang Peng and others:
"My brother...... Chen Weiwei...... He, he disappeared when he went to the 'Beiying Snow Mountain' to look for something 'Beiying Snow Monster'! Please...... Please help me find him......"
"Huh!?" The four were taken aback.
(Stay tuned for the next case: Snow Monster Murder)
