Chapter Seventy-Five: Hanging
Yuan Liuli looked at Hu Qianqiu who entered the door, "You plan to forget this matter?" What if something happens tonight? ”
Hu Qianqiu closed the door and shrugged his shoulders, "Then what else can I do?" You can't just tie them all up and wait for the police to come and separate them, right? At that time, the first thing the police will arrest is not the murderer, but me. ”
Yuan Liuli was speechless.
Hu Qianqiu smiled, "You don't have to worry so much, I see that they are all desperate for their lives, since I have already reminded them like that, no one will go out at night, as long as it is over, there should be no big problem." I said before that the murderer's next target is likely to be Li Ruiyu, so just now I went to his room and told him to lock the doors and windows, and I don't think there will be any big problems. ”
"If only that were the case."
Hu Qianqiu looked at Yuan Liuli and smiled, "You usually look like frost, but I didn't expect to care so much about the life and death of others, but a group of people who don't know each other well, and they can be regarded as scumbags originally." ”
Yuan Liuli looked at Hu Qianqiu and said seriously: "No matter whether the other party is good or bad, we have no right to decide the life and death of others based on our own likes and dislikes." ”
Hu Qianqiu nodded, "What this said is very reasonable, but what we should be most worried about now is not Li Ruiyu." ”
Yuan Liuli was stunned for a moment, "Who is that?" ”
Hu Qianqiu stretched out his finger and pointed at himself.
"You?"
Hu Qianqiu nodded, "That's right." I've done so much in the hall before, and although I haven't pointed out those things, as long as the real murderer is not a fool, I should guess that I already know a lot of things, and he is likely to do something to me next in order to prevent his next chance from being revealed. ”
Yuan Liuli was stunned, "Then what should we do?" ”
Hu Qianqiu pulled the corners of his mouth, "Wait and see what happens, and respond to all changes with no change." If something really happens at night, please bother the heroine to protect this weak scholar. ”
Yuan Liuli snorted coldly, noncommittal.
Hu Qianqiu knew that Yuan Liuli had such a temperament, if something really happened, she would naturally not stand idly by, and now she didn't care much, picked out a change of clothes in her luggage, and went to the bathroom to take a bath first.
Hu Qianqiu was washing his body while thinking about this matter in his mind.
Everything here is strange everywhere, although he has preliminarily speculated that Gao Mingyi is the real culprit of all this, but he is not 100% sure, and he also feels that there are many possibilities for this incident, so he is a little annoyed.
Hu Qianqiu went out of the bathroom after changing his clothes and blowing his hair, Yuan Liuli glanced at him, and took his clothes into the bathroom.
As early as the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Hu Qianqiu lived with Yuan Liuli, so now that the two of them live in the same room, Hu Qianqiu doesn't care much.
Hu Qianqiu originally wanted to practice here, but firstly, this place is not a void view, and absolute tranquility cannot be guaranteed, and secondly, he still has many doubts in his mind, his mind is restless, and he can't calm down, so he just lies on the bed and thinks about things.
Twenty minutes later, Yuan Liuli came back from the bathroom and changed into a light blue pajamas, and her bumpy figure loomed, even Hu Qianqiu, after taking a look, there was a ripple in her heart.
"What's wrong?" Yuan Liuli noticed Hu Qianqiu's gaze and was a little puzzled.
Hu Qianqiu's face turned red, and then he shook his head, "It's nothing, I think you're weird and good-looking." ”
"Oh." Yuan Liuli simply responded, picked up a book he brought, went to bed and read at the head of the bed.
Hu Qianqiu was originally thinking about things, but he couldn't calm down at this time.
He was a little strange, although he was a little embarrassed when he slept with Yuan Liuli half a month ago, but he would never be like this deer bumping like now, and he didn't know what was wrong with him.
Hu Qianqiu looked sideways at Yuan Liuli.
"Something?"
Hu Qianqiu nodded, "We obviously use the same shampoo and shower gel, why are you so fragrant?" ”
Yuan Liuli thought for a while, and said seriously: "Maybe you were originally more stinky." ”
“……”
At half past seven the next day, Hu Qianqiu got up and washed, and then went to each room to call someone.
Li Ruiyu's room was on the second floor like Hu Qianqiu, and when Li Ruiyu opened the door of his room and rubbed Hu Qianqiu's sleepy eyes, the stone hanging in Hu Qianqiu's heart was temporarily put down.
"You wash up first, and then we will have a meeting in the hall."
Hu Qianqiu went to call Yuan Jing and Huang Tianhai, who were also on the second floor, but knocked on the door for a long time, but no one responded, and Hu Qianqiu couldn't help but become anxious.
Just as Hu Qianqiu was helpless and was about to bang on the door, he heard a burst of footsteps, followed by the sound of the indoor lock being opened.
"Call your sister, what time is it?"
Seeing Huang Tianhai open the door, Hu Qianqiu breathed a sigh of relief, and looked into the room, "What about Yuan Jing, haven't gotten up yet?" ”
Huang Tianhai was stunned for a while, "He's not in the room, we slept at about twelve o'clock last night, but he disappeared when I was woken up by you just now, didn't you see him?" ”
Hu Qianqiu was stunned, and a sense of foreboding suddenly appeared in his heart.
"The door to this room just now was locked from the inside."
Huang Tianhai was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Yes." ”
Hu Qianqiu was shocked in his heart, if Yuan Jing woke up earlier than Huang Tianhai and then left the room first, then how did the door of the room be locked?
Either Huang Tianhai is lying, or ......
"Ah......h
Hu Qianqiu was thinking about it when he suddenly heard a sharp cry from the third floor.
Hu Qianqiu didn't have time to think about it, he ran directly to the third floor, and as soon as he arrived on the platform on the third floor, he saw Lu Xuan sitting on the ground softly, his back against the wall, facing the railing, his legs bent together, his right hand supporting the ground, his left hand covering his mouth, and his body trembling constantly. The whole person's movements and demeanor were the same as when she saw the corpse in the kitchen yesterday.
Hu Qianqiu followed her eyes and looked out, but saw something hanging on the huge crystal chandelier, and that thing was a corpse.
That corpse was Gao Mingyi, whom Hu Qianqiu was suspecting.
A finger-thick hemp rope was tied to the chandelier, and Gao Mingyi's neck was hung on it, because the rope was very short, and the height of the chandelier itself was close to the third floor, so Gao Mingyi's body was only exposed on the platform on the third floor, but Hu Qianqiu didn't find it at all when he was on the second floor.
The primary suspect is now dead in front of him, and Hu Qianqiu is a little overwhelmed for a while.
