Chapter 68: Confession
Yuan Liuli quietly walked to Hu Qianqiu's side and said in a low voice, "Why are you doing this?" ”
Hu Qianqiu turned his head to look at her and smiled, "Didn't I stand up for you." ”
Yuan Liuli glared at him, "Tell the truth! ”
Hu Qianqiu smiled bitterly and attached his mouth to Yuan Liuli's ear, "I really can't hide anything from you." The reason why I deliberately provoked her was to see how other people reacted, after all, the idea that they knew each other was just my speculation, and it was not confirmed. But I didn't expect her to say that about you, so it was a pure accident to hit her just now. ”
Yuan Liuli heard Hu Qianqiu's last words, and her heart was also a little moved, "Then do you see anything?" ”
Hu Qianqiu glanced at the others and said in a low voice, "Let's talk about it later." ”
Yuan Liuli nodded.
Hu Qianqiu moved his wrist and whispered: "But this girl's skin is really thick, and my hands hurt when I beat her, what I say this time can be regarded as a head start for you, it should be considered a work injury, go back and help me pay the medical bills." ”
"Get out!"
Although Hu Qianqiu just beat Lu Xuan, no one stood up to accuse him, after all, Lu Xuan was at fault in this matter, and although it was wrong to beat a woman, but to beat a woman for the sake of his beloved woman, the meaning was extraordinary, Hu Qianqiu even looked at Gao Mingyi and quietly stretched out a thumbs up to himself to show praise. Hu Qianqiu also smiled slightly, silently clasping his fists and returning the salute.
However, when such a thing happened, the scene suddenly fell silent, and no one spoke for a long time.
"Ahem!" Li Ruiyu coughed lightly and took the lead in breaking the silence.
"It's not a solution to leave the corpse there after all, let's go and help the corpse to the basement."
Gao Mingyi nodded, "When I searched the basement before, I saw that there was an ice vault there, let's move Lin Lao's body into it." ”
"Can't move!" Hu Qianqiu suddenly spoke.
A group of people looked at Hu Qianqiu in unison and asked in unison, "Why is this?" ”
"If you move, you're destroying the crime scene!"
Everyone looked stunned.
"Lin Cripple, wasn't he bitten to death by a tiger?"
Hu Qianqiu turned his head to look at Huang Tianhai and slowly shook his head, "I have seen Lin Lao's corpse before, although a large piece of the flesh on his neck has been bitten off, a very fine strangulation mark can still be seen on the remaining piece of flesh, it is obvious that he was strangled to death, and then used tools to break his neck and bleed." If you die because you have a bite on your neck, the blood will spurt out due to your blood pressure, but the blood in the kitchen does not have this characteristic. ”
Hu Qianqiu looked at everyone's expressions, and then said: "There is also an obvious point, if Lin Lao was really bitten to death by a tiger, then even if he does not have no bones, his body cannot be preserved so well, I have not heard of a tiger biting someone to death, and he did not bite a few bites, it is obvious that this is the negligence of the murderer." ”
Li Ruiyu asked: "Then why didn't you say this matter before, and only say it now?" ”
Hu Qianqiu smiled, "I naturally have my reasons. But it doesn't matter what the reason is, I can tell you directly that the murderer of Lin Lao is among us, and he will continue to kill people until he kills us all. ”
"Ah!!h Lu Xuan covered her head and shouted, it was obvious that she couldn't accept this fact for a while.
Gao Mingyi looked at Hu Qianqiu, "Are you suspecting that one of us is the murderer?" ”
Hu Qianqiu shook his head, "It's not doubt, but conviction." If the murderer wasn't in our group, a lot of things wouldn't be explained. ”
As soon as Hu Qianqiu said this, the eyes of the others looking at each other changed slightly, Huang Tianhai suddenly stood up, stepped forward quickly, and grabbed Hu Qianqiu's sleeve with his left hand, "You kid is not alarmist here, it's not your turn to doubt us!" ”
Hu Qianqiu's face remained unchanged, and he smiled faintly, "How do I feel that you are a thief?" ”
The words fell, and the eyes of everyone present immediately fell on Huang Tianhai's face, and in the face of this situation, he was also unwilling to let go of Hu Qianqiu.
Hu Qianqiu patted the place where Huang Tianhai had been caught by Huang Tianhai on the neckline, only to hear Li Ruiyu suddenly say: "Even if Lin Lao was really killed by one of us, how can you be sure that he will continue to kill?" ”
Hu Qianqiu looked at them, "Let's get straight to the point now, you are not here to participate in activities, but to find something." ”
As soon as Hu Qianqiu finished speaking, the scene suddenly fell silent, some looked left and right, some lowered their heads, and some pretended to be stupid.
Hu Qianqiu smiled, "Let's talk about how you participated in this event." ”
Li Ruiyu sighed, and now he doesn't plan to hide it, "As you said, we are really here to find something this time." What you may not know is that the former owner of this villa was a business tycoon in the last century, with untold wealth, and it is said that he exchanged all his fortune for gold before his death, and it is rumored that this is where he hid his gold. ”
Hu Qianqiu was stunned, and then smiled dumbly, "People die for money, birds die for food, no wonder you are eager for this." ”
Li Ruiyu continued: "But for so many years, there have been many people who have infiltrated here, but in the end they all returned in vain, and people have slowly forgotten about this matter. However, some time ago, this legend began to flourish among the people, so when I heard that the company that owns this villa will invite others to participate in the event here, I was also very much looking forward to it, but I didn't expect it to be so coincidental, I just happened to meet it, after all, even if you can't solve the puzzle of the event, if you can find the golden clue, you will not have to worry about eating and drinking for the rest of your life. ”
"I see." Hu Qianqiu nodded, and then looked at where Huang Tianhai and Yuan Jing were, "You and they are classmates?" ”
"Yes, the three of us used to be junior high school classmates, but I haven't seen each other for years, and I didn't recognize them at first."
Lu Xuan sat next to Yuan Jing, so Hu Qianqiu himself referred to Huang Tianhai, Yuan Jing and Lu Xuan, but Li Ruiyu didn't count Lu Xuan at all, so it naturally made Hu Qianqiu more sure of the inference he made when he annoyed Lu Xuan before.
Hu Qianqiu smiled, "The two of them are not college students, how can they participate in this event?" ”
"College students?" Li Ruiyu showed a puzzled expression, "Isn't this event open to anyone, and the official will immediately select ten people to send invitations." ”
Hu Qianqiu was stunned, how is this different from the version he has heard?
Huang Tianhai suddenly said, "I picked up the invitation that fell from someone else when I was drinking in a bar. ”
Hu Qianqiu was stunned, "Do you remember what that person looks like?" ”
"Where do I remember this, I was drunk at that time, and I saw that the person in front of me dropped something, which looked pretty good, so I picked it up and put it in my pocket, and the next day I woke up before I was relieved that this invitation was originally written, and I had heard about the gold, so I came."
Hu Qianqiu nodded, it seems that everyone has a different way of getting the invitation, and except for himself and Yuan Liuli, the others who get the invitation seem to be obtained randomly, but it is actually carefully designed, as if the murderer deliberately lured them here.
While Hu Qianqiu was thinking about it, the truth slowly surfaced.
This event was not held by a so-called enterprise at all, but was planned by the murderer, and his purpose was never the so-called gold, but to gather them all here.
Although Hu Qianqiu didn't know what the identity of the murderer was, not only could he plan such a big scam, but he could even set the location in this villa, but Hu Qianqiu could be sure that there must be many people among these people that the murderer wanted to kill, and Lin Lao's death was not because the murderer wanted to prevent him from publishing the declassified information, but because Lin Lao, like some people present, was involved in something.
Hu Qianqiu faintly felt that the truth of this matter must be related to that incident, and that incident was like a net, binding these people.
While Hu Qianqiu was pondering, Li Ruiyu suddenly said, "What did you just say about college students?" ”
Hu Qianqiu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It's nothing, because our registration location is in the school, so I thought that only college students could participate." ”
Yuan Liuli glanced at Hu Qianqiu, and didn't understand why he had to lie at this time since he had already chosen to tell the truth.
"I see, you said that the murderer was among us, so do you have any doubts?"
Hu Qianqiu smiled, his eyes moving back and forth on everyone's faces, "Who knows." ”
Lu Xuan suddenly looked at Huang Tianhai, "It can't really be you." ”
"What do you say! I didn't kill that cripple! ”
When Hu Qianqiu heard this, a light suddenly flashed in his mind.
"Tianhai, your parents are divorced, and it's very difficult to live alone." Li Ruiyu said suddenly.
"yes, so what!" Huang Tianhai suddenly reacted, "You are also suspicious of me?" I said I didn't kill him, I didn't kill him, and then again, didn't you kid tell me that you owe a lot of gambling debts? ”
Li Ruiyu's face immediately turned red, he hurriedly explained to everyone, and then transferred the firepower to Yuan Jing.
Hu Qianqiu smiled, some people are really ugly.
