Chapter 61: The Clown at the Masquerade Ball

The bathroom door opened, and the clown's figure reappeared.

For days, he could hear the sound of the man walking outside, talking on the phone, eating, watching TV.

Sometimes, he could still hear the ambiguous voice of a woman outside, and at this time, he came to hope, and violently tried to kick the bathroom door with his foot, but he couldn't reach it, and the sound of his foot on the hard floor was pitifully quiet.

He shouted desperately, but the tape bound to his mouth didn't convey much of his voice.

The clown inserts a carton of milk into a straw and tears a strip from his mouth.

He could finally speak.

"I beg you, will you let me go?"

The clown grinned: "Let you go?" Are you stupid for me? Let you out, and then the police will come to the door? ”

"Don't worry, I won't say it. I'll tell the police that I've gone out to do something and that it won't bother you. ”

The clown laughed: "Bai Qiu, you have lived for more than fifty years in vain, shouldn't you be naΓ―ve to think that I will believe your nonsense?" I didn't keep your life because I was kind, but because you still have use value, be careful, don't anger me, then you will regret it. ”

When the bathroom door closed again, it was dark again.

…………

In the small hall of the Communication University of City F, a weekend masquerade ball is being held here.

The ball was planned by Amber to enrich the leisure life of college students.

Here, you can hide yourself under a different face than usual, have fun and talk to strangers.

For example, a young man will find out before the dance that the girl he has a crush on will be dressed up, and at the beginning of the dance, he will see an opportunity to find her, and he will be opposite to her familiar and unfamiliar.

Of course, it's the same for girls, maybe the face under the feather mask is really the senior who has a crush on him, and this is the right time to drive away Cinderella's inferiority, bravely walk towards him, and dance with him to his heart's content.

Passionate beats, endless swings, ambiguous lights, and graceful figures sway in front of you.

You'll wonder what kind of vivid face that girl with a great figure hides behind a mask.

Amber doesn't have to think about it, he is so obsessed with the role of the clown, he is naturally the clown who shuttles through the venue.

He was a little regretful, even though he had said openly and secretly that he would make up for a small house before the masquerade began.

He thought that there were many students who would be clown fans like him.

The dance party has been open for a long time, but he is the only one in the audience who is a clown.

There are a lot of Batman, but they are all boys, which disappoints him a lot.

Well, he admits that he has selfish intentions in holding this masquerade.

One is to see if I can get a hot girl and have a good weekend.

The second is to find some like-minded companions who can have a clown party next time.

The companion's wish is in vain, but the desire to find a hot girl can still be realized.

No, the plump Ice Queen has been throwing an olive branch to herself.

This figure is in line with my own aesthetics, but I don't know if the face under the mask is the one I like.

At the end of the aisle next to the left hand of the stage is a separate dressing room.

He had long been optimistic about that place, suitable for one or several indescribable encounters.

He and the Ice Queen had already danced several dances in succession, and the warm body seemed to lean towards him, and he had long been in a fog and didn't know why.

It was a slow dance, and most of the dance had passed, and he felt it was time.

He took the Ice Queen by the waist and slid all the way out of the stage, and no one noticed them, just disappeared for a moment.

The door to the dressing room was open, the sound of dance music still lingered in his ears, and he followed the beat of the dance music and led her in.

The powder room door was shut, and the mirror shimmered ambiguously in the dim light.

The timing was just right.

Suddenly, he seemed to see two clowns in the mirror.

One looked at the other steadily, and the image of the other was a little indecent. But at this time, who can take care of all this?

He thinks that he is drunk, not the kind of drunkenness that drinks, but the smell of the girl's infatuation that makes people drunk.

The smell makes people more and more intoxicated, drunk and makes people a little dizzy, more and more dizzy.

What the hell is going on?

The Ice Queen's face became hideous in his pupils, and he remembered that this girl seemed to be the fat black girl in the class with a lot of pockmarks on her face.

In the last consciousness, it was the pockmarks on the girl's face that were infinitely enlarged in the pupils.

The music of the dance party is non-stop, and the lights make people mesmerize this strange world.

Half an hour later, a new guest arrived in the powder room.

Batman and Snow White.

The door was hidden, and it was pushed open when pushed.

The images projected in the dressing room were a bit unbelievable, but they didn't pay much attention to them when they were ignited by their enthusiasm.

Until Cinderella touched something sticky in her hand, took it to the tip of her nose and sniffed it, a smell of blood.

The light was turned on, and the girl screamed.

The prom is a mess, someone finds the clown with his throat cut in the dressing room, and the murderer is most likely in the middle of them.

The police soon arrived at the scene, the dressing room was not big, Amber dressed as a clown sat quietly on the table of the dressing room, the wound on his neck was shocking, and the blood ran down his neck and flowed on the red clown suit, which had been mixed together.

The ambulance came quickly, and Amber was no longer breathing of life.

But the fat girl next to him was just unconscious.

The initial diagnosis is that the coma was caused by inhalation of an excess of ether.

On the floor of the scene, the police found a clown nose in one place.

The Joker has committed another crime, and this time he targets Amber who is dressed as a clown at a masquerade.

Amber was also the first object of the police's suspicion at first. Until Bai Qiu's disappearance, a large number of police forces were focused on searching for Bai Qiu.

And given that Bai Qiu was missing at the time of his disappearance, Amber had sufficient alibi.

So Xie Ju ordered the withdrawal of the police officers who were staring at Amber and Peter Wong.

Unexpectedly, this withdrawal was returned to the withdrawal.

The scene was a little messy, and there were all kinds of miscellaneous items piled up in the small dressing room.

But Amber's fatal wounds fit the style of previous cases, and the killer was undoubtedly the clown.

Unlike other crime scenes, the murder weapon, the same fruit knife as the previous cases, was held in the hand of the fat girl next to Amber.

The scene of the crime was a mess, and several people had arrived at the scene, but no useful trace value had been extracted.

There were two clearly visible fingerprints on that knife, and when the results were not compared, everyone knew in their hearts that those two fingerprints must have belonged to the fat girl.
