That's the most frightening thing, more frightening and desperate than seeing a corpse in person. So Qin Sen silently retreated to the middle of a few young people, anyway, they didn't talk much, Qin Sen felt that he shouldn't open his mouth more, Mingzhe to protect himself! It's all the same.

Lu Haoyu has been observing the people around him, and he is thinking in his heart about how many are missing, first of all, the black charcoal-like Qiao Keli, who was so enthusiastic about himself at first, and then actually participated in the actions of the criminal police, and now he is not even there, Lu Haoyu feels that this Qiao Keli may also be a member of the criminal police.

However, it is estimated that everyone else is guessing this way, except for the parties involved in the homicide under the mountain.

Among these nine people, there is actually one person who knows Qiao Keli's true identity, but in order to hide his identity, he must not debunk Qiao Keli, this person is naturally the person who wants to go to Xixi and die, and he is also the person who Liu Qiao Pu has been targeting since the beginning of the operation. As for what his name is? We certainly can't say it right now.

But there is one thing that can still be provided, that is, according to the above words, he must be a man, among the people on the scene, in addition to Shan Mingze, who is detached, and Liu Qiaopu, who is leading everyone's actions, there are still three men left, Qin Sen, Lu Haoyu and Lian Fan, the presence of these three men is not high, you can guess for yourself, who is the one who deceived Xixi's feelings!

Okay, let's get down to business, the three doors around the room, Liu Qiaopu tried them one by one, only the rightmost one can be opened, and the inside is just like the old man's guess, it is the stairwell, so they can only go up to the third floor to have a look, as for the second floor, go to the third floor and find a way to find the stairs down! For the time being, they have no other way to think of it.

——

On the afternoon of December 31, in a room in the secret passage of the tower of the Treacherous House

Yun Yeyao opened the last drawer of the cabinet, he gently pressed the small flashlight on the key in his hand, and carefully looked at the things placed in the drawer, there was a small ruler, two pens and two neatly stacked notebooks, the notebook was very small, the kind with a leather envelope, and it looked quite new, and it was not torn.

Yun Yeyao stretched out his hand to pick up the notebook placed on it, and opened it to see the contents inside, but Yan Muheng's voice came from behind him.

We have previously described the decoration style of the first floor and the tower of the Strange House, with all kinds of strange wall decorations, mixed colors, exaggerated soft packaging and soundproofing, and spiral staircases painted in the same hue, as well as the close-knit rooms and colorful slippers.

In general, there are two completely different styles, one is exaggerated and bright, and the other is metaphorically good news for people with obsessive-compulsive disorder!

It's different here, it's like a house renovated by a noble family who really likes simplicity. The light brown wallpaper is a bit more camel-colored, elegant and beautiful, and the wall is slightly embellished with a few landscape paintings in the right places. There are two windows above and below the staircase, the upper edge of the window is semicircular and the lower edge is square, which is generally the shape of an arched door. The wooden window frames are painted in the same colour as the curtains, and the color of the single curtain is perfectly matched to the walls.

Although the windows are closed, the sunlight from the outside fully penetrates into the room, and there is no need to turn on the lights, which makes people feel that the inside is bright and refreshing, which is very pleasant.

Liu Qiaopu glanced back at the small bathroom behind him, it was dark and gloomy, just like the hexagonal room just now, although all the connected doors had been opened, the sunlight outside the window still could not shine into the space behind him. It was as if one was in the depths of hell and the other at the entrance to heaven.

The old man had to be amazed by this house, if the house was designed by An Ze himself, then it can only be said that An Ze is an architectural designer hidden in his bones.

The steps in the middle of the staircase look much lighter than the surrounding color due to the sunlight, and are close to the off-white kind. There are two brown edges on either side, one of which is connected to the wall and the other side is connected to the stair handrail, which is a tan close to black, which can be roughly described as the color of chocolate.

However, the old man thought that the color here was better than the sweet chocolate color, and the railings under the handrails were neatly arranged one by one, without too much decoration, but they were smooth and round, and they were not gorgeous in monotony. Liu Qiaopu stood at the door of the bathroom for two or three minutes, and he had never looked at the interior of the room so closely. The nine people behind him had already rushed into the bathroom, and if it weren't for the fact that the room was too cramped, they might all have come in.

Standing at the front are a few boys, the strength of the boys

This time, the old man is worried, if everyone is blocked here, it means that all the actions done before are useless, the old man and Yun Yeyao finally designed a few people who were separated, and they will return to the first floor to be with the people who are acting, so their plans will not be implemented according to the ideal model.

Liu Qiao Pu frowned, he left the top wall and returned to the middle platform of the stairs, wanting to open the window there, but when his hand touched the window frame, he found that the window frame here was actually an ornament, and there was no way to open it at all! He did not give up, and returned to the window at the bottom wall of the staircase, but the result was completely unexpected, the decorative window frame prevented any possibility of opening, and it was clear from the glued gaps that the window was completely blocked.

At this time, the cook who was still standing at the top of the stairs said, "Mr. Liu, I know that there is such a space. ”

"What do you say? Cook mother-in-law. Liu Qiaopu couldn't understand what the cook was saying, so he raised his head to look at him, and all the young people around them were also attracted by the cook's words for a moment.

The cook's mother-in-law had a hard time speaking because of her heart discomfort, and she said slowly: "I have heard Mr. Housekeeper talk about such a stairwell before, but I have never seen it, and I don't know what the real appearance of the stairwell really looks like. Mr. Housekeeper just told me that there are some doors in this stairwell that don't need to be opened, and only this one leads to the third floor. He said he didn't need any keys and couldn't find any doors. No one but him can find a real entrance. ”

"I didn't know exactly where the stairwell was when Mr. Butler was talking about. Now that I think about it, it should be here, Mr. Butler said that there is an entrance, I believe he will never lie, or everyone will look carefully. After the cook's mother-in-law finished speaking, she was helped back to the staircase by Sister Wang, she looked very tired, and when she got downstairs, she sat on the floor against the wall, and her eyes never left Liuqiaopu, who was thinking.

Qin Sen kept following behind the old man, and he picked up the words of the cook and said, "Grandpa Liu, the windows here can't be opened, and the walls are tightly blocked all around, how can there be a passage!" We went back to where we came in and managed to pry the other two doors open, and I think the real passage should be there. ”

And the one he always believed in, why did he put all the blame on the maid? There are so many things that men don't understand! But there was only one thing in it, and he was sure of it, and that was that the maid had absolutely nothing to do with the fire! But this point brought him more doubts and more hurt!

The footsteps continued downward, and in fact, the man was not walking from the second floor of the mirror house to the third floor, but from the third floor to the largest room on the second floor. The hexagon had a special meaning to him and someone, and the reason why the hexagonal room below was not furnished with any furniture was more accurately because the man thought it was a burial chamber rather than a room.

Yes, if anything happens to this Spiegel House in the future, he and his loved ones will definitely imprison themselves on the second floor of the main house, and they will not let anyone find them, and bury themselves forever, which is the last thing a man can choose to do.

The figure gradually disappeared into the narrow and dark bathroom, and finally he couldn't even hear the footsteps, no one saw how the man came down from the third floor, and no one knew whether he had stayed in the space on the third floor, only the last sigh left, showing the man's heart broken because of sin......

——

No one knows how many years it has existed, and no one knows how many years it was built, but according to the memories of the cook's mother-in-law, it was already in use when she arrived at the Spiegel House, and it was already familiar to the people around her.

The days that belonged to the Spiegel House were relatively short, and the cook remembered about five or six years, and that also included the days before and after the fire, and maybe the years would have been shorter if it had not been for the hostess's resolute disagreement with the change of the name of the house. And the days before and after the days that belong to the treacherous house add up to more than ten years.

In the past ten years, the Spiegel House has officially become a treacherous house, and there are more little horrors and maids in the house. And the hostess is as if she has evaporated from the world, and no one knows where she is except Mr. Butler.

The cook couldn't be sure, but it was Mr. Housekeeper who hid the hostess? Or the hostess herself wants to stay away from the world and live a quiet life. In short, she has no way to interfere with what the housekeeper and hostess decide. The cook had only seen her mistress once in ten years, and that was the first day Xiao Wang came to the treacherous house, and that day was also the happiest day for Horror, because she finally had someone who could take care of her like a mother.

Maybe it's the same heart, the first time I saw Xiao Wang, I had the feeling of mother and daughter, which the cook couldn't do anyway, why couldn't she do it? She couldn't put it into words.

The days of peace and bleakness are passing away day by day, and it is impossible to say that they are unhappy, and they have not explained the Fa clearly what life is like, and all people are like living in a dream, uncontrollable and step-by-step. And Terror and her son were the loneliest of them all.

Sure enough, Mr. Criminal Police was very shocked by this, and a pair of eyes kept scanning Shu Xue's body, and asked, "What is her identity?" How can he look exactly like Weymanman? Why should I trust her? The series of questions carried an unsettling questioning tone, and if it were an ordinary little girl, she would have retreated a long time ago.

But standing in front of the patrol officer at this moment is a black shadow that has been hidden for too long, and she wants to get rid of the shackles of the shadow and become the one standing, so the word retreat will not appear in her dictionary.

Shu Xue began to answer questions, and began to speak the lines she had prepared, and those lines made Mr. Criminal Police change from wariness to half-belief, from half-belief to trust, all of which relied on the secrets of the past, of course, it was only a part of the secrets of the past, and it was the part that I wanted them to know.

Finally, Mr. Detective asked, "How much secret space is there in this house?" ”

"That's all we know!" Xiao Heng quietly pulled Shu Xue behind him, and replied in her place: "Shu Xue is the one who was wronged back then, and later he stayed because he had to stay. Shu Xue and I have never been to the side house, nor have we reached the upper floor of the main house, and everything is known only to the housekeeper and the hostess. ”

It's the perfect shirk. Shu Xue thought in her heart: "The housekeeper is dead, and it is still unknown whether the hostess can be found." In this case, how on earth are they going to know the truth? This thought made Shu Xue's curiosity soar, she really wanted to know who could win in the end, the criminal police or the demon? But this kind of thought must not be known to Xiao Heng in front of him now.

Xiao Heng's answer also brought a benefit, that is, to confirm the existence of the hostess.

"Yes, but she's not missing now, she disappeared ten years ago!" (Xiao Heng replied to the previous words)

'Huh! Cunning guys, shaking off their secrets, trying to divert the attention of the patrolmen? But if you ignore something, I won't trust you either, and I'll let them notice you. (Shu Xue's thoughts)

"In fact, there are many things that we still haven't figured out, including the horror of what really happened. Anyway, the case involved in Sissy must be related to someone in this family, and it was he who attracted Sissi and the other two people to the mountains and caused a misunderstanding. ”

"I remember when the hostess used to be there, she used to let me go to the study to get books, and when I entered the study during the day, it was actually very bright inside, even if the lights were not turned on, it didn't matter, I didn't know where the light came in? But as soon as you walk to the back rows of the bookcases on both sides, the light will be completely blocked by the bookcases. ”

"You're saying that during the day there will be plenty of sunlight in the center of the study, and the bookcases on both sides will be very dark, right?" Chokley asked, "But there is no window in the center of the study, and the only window is also blocked, and the angle of light cannot penetrate the corridor in the center of the study, so where does the sunlight come from?" ”

"Could it be a fluorescent lamp hidden somewhere? For example, behind a book, or inside a thick wooden plank, the hostess and housekeeper deliberately used it instead of sunlight to deceive other people's eyes. ”

Terror felt that it was difficult for her to answer Chokley's question, she was just describing the scene she had seen with her own eyes, and as for what kind of reason was hidden behind it, it was not something she could figure out, so Terror just shook her head vigorously and didn't say anything.

This made the curious Chokley fall into thought, where did the sunlight come from? Grandpa Liu said that the door of the study can be opened separately from both ends, and if it is opened in reverse, it can go directly to the outdoors, which Qiao Keli has not seen with his own eyes, and it is impossible to believe 100%, so he proposed to go to the study with Horror, a large part of the reason is to study the door at the entrance of the study.

Qiao Keli believed that it was impossible for Grandpa Liu to lie, either the old detective had read it wrong, or it was a mechanism designed when the house was built before. But what exactly is the structure of this institution? Jockley wanted to do it himself, he had been interested in some machinery and mechanisms since he was a child, but he had no talent for it, and he didn't have the perseverance or perseverance to do it, so he never studied these things again when he grew up.

But why should the horrors sit down and play a tune when they want to listen to the sounds around them? Most people can only hear the subtle sounds around them in absolute silence. But there are also a small number of people who are unable to calm down in absolute silence, and horror is one of them.

Every night after she left the restaurant, she spent a long night alone in the hostess's room, and if she couldn't hear a sound, the fear would spread infinitely, especially since the hostess's room was next door to the study, and the usual horror could not live in the tower, because that would debunk the trick of the hostess's absence in the room, which was also something that the housekeeper would never allow.

That's why every night when Horror comes back, he plays the Moonlight Song first, and he plays it late. Gradually, the horror developed the habit of being able to concentrate in the sound of music. She could hear the footsteps of the surrounding room in the space filled with piano music, and the subtle sounds of speech.

These voices, no matter how soft, could attract the attention of the Horror, which Chockley of course did not know. The thin black man couldn't sense the fierce fluctuation of the horror, he concentrated on studying the door in the study that could be opened in reverse, but although the crack in the reverse door was found, it could no longer be opened as easily and naturally as in the daytime, but was locked tightly, and Jokli was still unable to open it despite all his efforts.

He was not reconciled, and began to look for traces of the lock along the crack of the door, but it did not get his wish, and finally Jockley could only stand up straight, and turned to look at the horror who was playing the piano, and just as he was about to speak, Jokli noticed that the little girl seemed to be wrong!

The terrifying eyes were closed, the head hung low, and he looked dozing, but his fingers were moving on the keys at all, and the moonlight music was also played very smoothly, and Chokli suddenly remembered the words of Yanagihashi Pu's care for him, and quickly reached out to push the terrifying, but he didn't expect that in the next second, Chokley felt something cold against his throat.

After discovering what that cold thing was? A creepy feeling surged up from the bottom of Jokli's heart, as if the fear that he had just ignored was now all back in his body at once, Jockley opened his mouth to make a sound, but in the end he didn't say anything, just followed the little girl who had already stood up, and moved towards the depths of the darkness together, until the figures of the two people completely disappeared into the study.

The sudden change may indicate that another fresh life is about to be taken away in this house, but it is also possible that things will still be reversed, what is wrong with the horror, is her condition the same as Wen Manman beside Liuqiao Pu, and Wen Yuya, who is guarded by Shan Mingze, who is not injured? What will be the fate of Chokley, all these questions will eventually coincide, and the answer will be found at the moment when Yun Ye Yao openly explores the secrets behind everyone.

“…… Forest...... Dark Forest......, I, you, no, I ......" Because of the confusion in his mind, the man wanted to say it, but he didn't know how to say it, so he began to speak incoherently, and even others couldn't understand what he wanted to say.

The girl's gaze in front of him was confused because of his words, the girl opened her red lips slightly, her not too beautiful face tilted slightly to one side, it looked sluggish, but it still looked so terrible in the dark space, the man had retreated to the corner, he had no way to retreat any further, his heels against the root of the wall, the fear in his heart almost overwhelmed him, and his eyes became wandering.

An inadvertent glance out of the corner of his eye made him see the passage open behind the huge wooden cabinet, and when Mr. Criminal Police left, he didn't close the entrance and exit at all, because they didn't know how to close it at all, and it was just a coincidence.

The man seemed to see a life-saving straw, and suddenly pushed the girl away, because the action was too strong, the thin slice in the girl's hand cut a bloody horizontal on his neck, the wound was not deep, and the blood only flowed a little, the man didn't care about this, and rushed to the open underground entrance, and disappeared from the girl's sight. Only the girl was left standing alone, looking confused.

Things started because of the man's curiosity, and stopped in the man's state of extreme fear, but he left the girl alone in the chaotic space, which is equivalent to putting the girl in an extremely dangerous situation, the old criminal police once asked the man to protect the girl's safety, because she is the key person in this family.

When he ran to the bottom of the stairs, the cold invaded the man's skin, and the man felt that his body was surrounded by cold rocks and damp moss, and finally came to his senses, he could not put the girl in danger, which his good heart could not allow, did he come here to harm people's lives?

Thinking of all this, the man returned upstairs desperately, but when he returned upstairs, there was no one in sight of the original place, and at this time fear really occupied the man's heart, which was a kind of kind of horror, so the man rushed out of the space lined with tall wooden cabinets, wanting to find the figure of the girl desperately.

But he didn't have to look for it anymore, because the soft moonlight song came into his ears, and the girl sat in front of the strangely shaped piano, her white fingers kept dancing on the keys, as if this moonlight song was played for men, and in the accompaniment of the piano, the girl began to tell her own story, it was the man's bravery, which made her believe in his sincerity, and made her finally willing to tell the secret that had been buried in her heart for many years, and this secret was related to the blood of An Ze that Yun Yeyao had always wanted to know.
