Chapter 35: Terror Strikes
Just when everyone was at a loss, Yu Dongting rushed back to the house with a brisk stride, shouting without looking back
"Mr. Zhang, where is the spare key to that room, quick!"
"Mr. Yu, wait a minute, the spare key is here..."Lao Zhang didn't have time to explain, so he casually handed Qiqi into the arms of Zuo Hongyi, who was closest to him
"Help me take care of my daughter, Mr. Yu can't find the key."
After saying that, he rushed back to the room.
The person who was originally waiting in the room saw Yu Dongting who suddenly rushed over, and hurriedly asked
"What's wrong with Kiki?"
Yu Dongting's mind was now all about finding a spare key, and he didn't notice anything else at all, just kept rummaging through the cabinets
"Where? Where is it? ”
At this time, Yu Dongting noticed that the only phone in the house had been destroyed, but it was too late to care about that now, and he had to find the spare key quickly.
Lao Zhang also followed in, pointing to an iron box on the ground
"Mr. Yu, the key is in the box."
After Yu Dongting heard it, he quickly picked up the box, only to find that the box was also locked
"Mr. Zhang, where is the key to the box?"
Lao Zhang hurriedly took out a bunch of keys from his pocket, and handed them to Yu Dongting with trembling hands.
At this time, Song Xiaofang and the others also followed, looking at the behavior of Yu Dongting and Lao Zhang, coupled with the iron-clad faces of the others, Su Yalan knew that something terrible must have happened, so she came over and asked
"Little Fang, what's wrong? Why are you all so nervous? ”
Song Xiaofang had a vague sense of fear, but after all, he was not sure what was going on, and he didn't want to scare Su Yalan, so he forced out a smile that was more ugly than crying
"No... It's nothing, Yalan, don't be afraid. ”
Yu Dongting finally found the spare key to room "50" from a pile of keys, and shouted at Song Xiaofang
"Little Fang! Follow me! Everyone else is coming up, too! ”
Song Xiaofang was hesitating what to do, she didn't expect that she would be named, her body was like instinctively trying to follow, Su Yalan was a little anxious, and grabbed Song Xiaofang's hand
"What the hell is going on? Did something happen to Guan Shuang? ”
Men will always be brave for women, Song Xiaofang didn't want to admit it in front of Su Yalan, so he patted Su Yalan's shoulder, and his smile was a little more natural than just now
"It's okay, Yalan, you can wait for me here."
After speaking, he rushed up with Lao Zhang, but Su Yalan was not obedient and followed up.
Fang Kexin shouted
"Hey, the girls are all up, what are we afraid of?"
After speaking, he also rushed up, this sentence stimulated men's self-esteem, and was driven by curiosity, including Zuo Hongyi and Qiqi, who came in last, and everyone followed.
Song Xiaofang came to the end of the corridor and saw Yu Dongting, who had already arrived at the door of room 50 first, half-kneeling, staring at the door with a serious face.
Song Xiaofang cautiously leaned over and asked in a low voice
"Mr. Yu, what's wrong? Open the door. ”
At this time, a few more people came over, and Yu Dongting lowered his voice and said to everyone
"The door is locked, I'm worried that the person who attacked Guan Shuang hasn't come out yet, everyone be careful after I open the door."
At this time, Song Xiaofang noticed that Su Yalan also followed, walked to her side, and accused her very angrily
"Didn't I leave you down there! What are you doing here? ”
Su Yalan didn't expect Song Xiaofang to speak to herself in such a tone, and the whole person was stunned, a little overwhelmed, and remembered that she couldn't speak
"I, I..."
"I'm going to open the door!" Yu Dongting said to everyone
Hearing Yu Dongting say this, Song Xiaofang held Su Yalan's hand tightly and instructed in a gentle and somewhat domineering tone
"Follow me, if anything, don't worry about anything, just run, do you hear?"
Su Yalan nodded as if she didn't understand.
Yu Dongting quickly opened the door lock, pushed the door open with all his might, and then sensitively flashed to the side of the door.
Seeing this, Song Xiaofang subconsciously pulled Su Yalan to his side, but his eyes were fixed on that room, and the situation of the others was similar.
The tense atmosphere seemed to be really suffocating, and after waiting for about ten seconds, and there was no movement in the room, Yu Dongting tentatively glanced inside, and then moved in step by step.
Song Xiaofang held Su Yalan's hand tightly, her body was close to the wall, she approached little by little, and finally came to the door. poked her head and saw the situation in the room clearly, she was shocked at first, then hurriedly turned her head, hugged Su Yalan's head into her arms, and completely blocked her vision with her own body
"Yalan, don't look!"
Lao Zhang saw that there had been no movement in the room, and estimated that there was nothing going on inside, so he also mustered up the courage to walk in
"Ah!! Killed!! ”
The white sheets in the room were stained black by a whole patch of blood, and in the center of the bed lay a man, Guan Shuang's corpse, motionless, like a doll discarded by his master, a sharp knife was plunged into his chest, in this case, anyone could tell that he was dead.
Hearing the shouting, the people in the corridor did not dare to go inside, so they could only stand there motionless.
Song Xiaofang collected a lot of materials in order to write detective novels, and he knew very well that ordinary people would definitely leave a psychological shadow when they saw such a terrifying murder scene, so he couldn't let Su Yalan see the situation inside anyway and said to her gently
"Yalan, it's okay, don't be afraid, I'm here, I'll take you downstairs first."
As he spoke, he patted her head gently, like a baby, and was about to take Su Yalan downstairs when Lao Zhang came to Song Xiaofang's side
"Mr. Song, Mr. Yu said he wanted you to go in and help."
Song Xiaofang didn't want to go in his heart, but he knew that if he showed a little fear at this time, Su Yalan would also feel frightened, nodded stiffly, and then sent Su Yalan to Lao Zhang's side
"Then please take the others down."
"Little Fang..."Su Yalan saw that Song Xiaofang was so nervous, and basically guessed what was going on.
"It's okay, I'll go down to accompany you in a while, don't be afraid."
After everyone went down, only Song Xiaofang was left in the empty corridor, which made him feel inexplicably terrifying, rather than standing here, he preferred to walk into the room with the corpse, after all, there was Yu Dongting to accompany him.
Although similar scenes have been described countless times in the novel, it is the first time to experience this kind of thing in reality, Song Xiaofang walked into the room step by step and coughed
"Well, is there anything I can help with?"
Yu Dongting didn't seem to be as nervous as he was
"How? Do you have any thoughts on this case? ”
Song Xiaofang was frightened
"Wouldn't he, he really think of me as a detective?"
He quickly shook his head and refused unexpectedly
"Yu... Mr. Yu, this is the real world, not the world of my novels, we should call the police. ”
"That's impossible." Yu Dongting shook his head and stood up to explain
"When I was looking for the key just now, I found that the only phone in the whole room had been destroyed, and our mobile phone had no signal on this island, and the morning radio said that because the blizzard had sealed the sea, we were isolated on this island."
"What do you mean?"
Chief Yu Dongting let out a long sigh
"Doesn't it come up a lot in your novels? Explain that the murderer wants to trap us here because he wants to continue killing. ”
Song Xiaofang didn't want to admit that he was afraid, but he knew that he was really scared now, and he began to regret why he came to such a place, and said timidly
"Let's get out of this room first, let's go downstairs and discuss the situation of the case with everyone, okay?"
Yu Dongting could see Song Xiaofang's fear, and nodded with a little disappointment
"Well, it's a bit reluctant for you."
After going downstairs, Yu Dongting briefly introduced the situation
"The time of death was about 2 a.m., the fatal wound was the one in the chest, the door was locked, one key was in the room, one key was on the first floor."
It is estimated that all the people here have experienced this kind of thing for the first time, and they are all very frightened, so frightened that they don't say a word, only Guo Xiang is relatively calm, and asked with a little suspicion
"May I ask Mr. Yu, why did you conduct an autopsy?"
Yu Dongting knew that Guo Xiang's implication was to doubt himself, but he didn't care
"I used to work as a chemist in the Ministry of Justice and Justice, so I know a lot about criminal cases."
Xiao Yanran asked nervously
"So, is it suicide?"
Yu Dongting said categorically
"No, he killed."
"Why?"
"Would anyone go out of their way to commit suicide on such an isolated island?"
"But isn't the whole room a secret room? If it wasn't suicide, how could the murderer leave the room? ”
This time Yu Dongting didn't answer, because no one could answer at all, and after a few seconds of silence, Zuo Hongyi asked
"That's... Is it possible that the teacher has returned? ”
"Don't talk nonsense!" Yu Dongting shouted loudly.
Now that there has been a murder, people are already panicking, and some ghosts and monsters are being made, and the situation is even worse.
"No, it's not my." Zuo Hongyi continued
"Think about it, the door is locked from the inside, and the key to Guan Frost is on him, and the only spare key has been on the first floor, if it was a human, how can he leave the room?"
"Murder in a closed room!" Yu Dongting said decisively and came to a conclusion, and glanced at Song Xiaofang after speaking
"Isn't that right?"
Song Xiaofang was still like that, as if he had been drained, and nodded.
Now that there is a murder, there is no way to get in touch with the outside world, and according to Yu Dongting, the murderer may continue to kill, Song Xiaofang really regrets implicating Su Yalan.
Su Yalan understood Song Xiaofang's mind and patted him on the shoulder
"Little Fang, are you blaming yourself? If I hadn't wanted to come myself, you wouldn't have been able to drag me over. ”
Song Xiaofang knew that Su Yalan was just comforting herself, so she nodded helplessly, Su Yalan's room was next to Guan Shuang, Song Xiaofang originally wanted to ask her if she heard any movement last night, but she was worried about causing her unease, and she didn't think she could solve the case, so she didn't open her mouth.
After a while, Lao Zhang and Yu Dongting carried Guan Shuang's body down from the upper floor and temporarily put it in the warehouse next to the elevator, and for the sake of safety, they left all the kitchen knives and fruit knives in the house for Lao Zhang's cooking, and all the others were locked.
Although the time passed very slowly, it was still evening, and after everyone had dinner, Kiki prepared black tea for everyone again
Qiqi noticed that Su Yalan received the black tea and said thank you, handed it directly to Song Xiaofang, and asked curiously
"What? Doesn't Miss Su drink it? ”
Su Yalan shook her head
"Well, I don't like to drink black tea, and yesterday's one was also for Xiao Fang, I'm sorry."
"Where, where."
After drinking tea, Song Xiaofang suddenly said
"Yalan, come and sleep in my room tonight."
