Chapter 41 The Drama of the Actors, the Detective and the Forensic Doctor (Action) 9: Upstairs and Downstairs
Yun Yeyao moved forward quickly, and the mechanical room was far away from him, for he was now above everyone's heads, and in front of him was the pile of crutch parts that represented his master's bad luck.
The metal door just now was very weird, someone deliberately sealed the key to open it, and he also heard the sound of Xie Yunmeng dismantling it from the periphery, which told him something different, not what Xie Yunmeng told him, but what the behavior of the criminal police told him.
Maybe Xie Yunmeng just wanted to talk about Youya, but he really touched on the key to Yun Yeyao finding Youya, and this key Mo Haiyou can't see yet, and he can only know it from the inside.
The key to Yuya is the weakness of the murderer, the fog in front of Yun Yeyao began to dissipate, everything was as they thought before, but the main body of the character was mistaken.
Gently bypassing the decaying corpses and the terrifying heads, Yun Yeyao reaffirmed that it was Mr. Lucifer, the head in a soft place, the corpse in the darkness of the flames, but the man who burned the fire was moaning in pain.
'Rescue him!' Yun Ye Yao secretly made up her mind: "I must rescue him!!" β
Finally, the light of the North Star came, and Yun Ye Yao heard the roar of the sea, and he jerked up his pace, not caring if he could hear it below, Yun Ye Yao had to try to close the open mouth of the tide in order to actually open the path to the edge of the waves.
The entrance and exit of the glass and metal were closed, and the chandelier shook with vibration, blinking large 'eyes' that were not bright.
At the last exit, the space in front of him was not close to the rock, Yun Yeyao had to climb up before the waves swarmed in, but he must not destroy the only light in his hand, which was the hope left by the three of them.
The light was left in an inconspicuous place, and after a few moments, there were no more actors in the space, and after a long time, so long that the tide had filled the gaps, and no one returned, the top of the waffle had been filled, and the water source was going deeper and deeper into Lucifer's villa.
Where no one can see, the demon's shadow takes away the 'bottle cap' that purifies the water, and the water gradually overflows, filling the hidden places where no one can see, and then they will pour out of these places and engulf everyone......

upstairs
The living room on the top floor of Lucifer's villa still maintains the appearance of when everyone found the body, Yujin's decomposed corpse looks very pitiful, due to the heat and the heavy humidity around him, it is completely unventilated, and the green spots and vascular network on the surface of his body are clearly presented, which is even more terrifying than when everyone sees it.
Yujin, whom no one knows, and Mr. Lucifer, whom everyone knows, died in one place, is their murderer Hu Zijia?
It's really unreliable to think like this, Hu Zijia lost a leg and an arm, how could he kill these two people? But now, among all of them, only Hu Zijia is missing, and he can't be doubted or not.
Aside from the horrible corpse, the appearance of the living room on the top floor has not changed much, the windows and doors are tightly closed, and the tide may have been high outside, and there is a faint smell of salty moisture in the gaps between the window frames and doors, which makes the room dull and abnormal, even the carpet seems to have absorbed enough moisture, and the fluff on the surface is sticking together.
The cuckoo table clock still sits in the middle of the staircase, alongside the paintings of demons and knights. On the base under the dial of the round clock, it was completely impossible to see the little devil that had been the doorknob, perhaps because the sky had darkened and affected the light source of the overhead lamp, and the place near the edge of the house was almost completely dark.
The little devil couldn't be seen clearly, and the door to the base mechanical room seemed to be open, and the cuckoo didn't tell the time at all, not because the clock parts were damaged like downstairs, but because the cuckoo was entrenched in its nest, as if it was stuck in something.
The cuckoo here enters the nest, and the door behind the frame is not opened, and there may not be any room, after all, Mrs. Lucifer did not say that there is a room on the top floor.
But we naturally wonder if there is a secret compartment hidden here, perhaps the body of Mr. Lucifer or the body of some stranger.

downstairs
Xie Yunmeng no longer spoke to Mrs. Lucifer, and there was nothing substantive in her mouth to refer to, so the detective began to bang on the wall inside the table clock.
"Forensic Mo, it's tight here, it's not like there's a secret passage, do you think there will be one upstairs?" Xie Yunmeng asked.
Mo Haiyou didn't answer Xie Yunmeng's question, but turned around and asked Mrs. Lucifer: "Madam, what is the place behind the table clock upstairs and here, judging by the layout, there should be a room empty in the middle of the wall, right?" β
"No, the four rooms and the cuckoo table clock are behind it, that is, there is more or less space in the wall behind them, and there are necessary mechanical devices in them, some of which control the power supply, some of which are machines that purify seawater, and anyway, my ex-husband told me that the equipment is hidden in the walls." Mrs. Lucifer said.
"However, the machine and the tank that purifies the seawater are upstairs, and since there are no rooms there, there will be a little more space in the walls. Then some small mechanical devices such as automatic generators and so on are located at the back of the room, and the top and bottom are separated, so that the power supply will not be short-circuited due to seawater leakage. And all the walls in this room are very well sealed, even if the water storage tank leaks and the walls are full of water, it will not flood the place where we are staying. β
"Unless, as I said, the sea water comes in directly through the windows and doors of the building. But now we don't have to worry about it at all, because we're all underground, and even if the windows are open upstairs, the tide can't get in. β
After Mrs. Lucifer finished speaking, she sighed to herself and lowered her head, she could see that she cared very much about this Lucifer villa.
"Madame, you must have made a great effort to get the villa from Mr. Lucifer, right?" Xie Yunmeng asked.
"Yes, I don't want to lie, I like this villa very much, it has a lot to do with my hobbies, in fact, to put it bluntly, I like horror novels just because of loneliness, I have always been very lonely before I married my ex-husband, maybe you don't believe it, how can people with so many friends be lonely! I don't believe it myself, maybe it's because of my unstable personality that my ex-husband divorced me. β
Regarding the past of Mrs. Lucifer, it is reasonable for everyone to go too deep, and besides, these are not related to the case.
But Mo Haiyou frowned, Mrs. Lucifer summed up the first half of her life with the word 'lonely', which was too simple for a woman like her.
The doubts in his heart turned into words, and Mo Haiyou asked: "Then what has the lady experienced to be so lonely?" β
ββ¦β¦ I'm sorry, Forensic Mo, I don't want to talk about my past......" Mrs. Lucifer chose to avoid it, but there was a color of memory in her eyes.
Sometimes, although it can cause unnecessary doubts, avoiding it is also a good way to avoid saying the wrong thing and burning yourself.
Mo Haiyou didn't ask any more, he just thought about whether to find a way to go upstairs to have a look, at this time, everyone dispersed definitely to give the murderer a chance to kill, but he was very uneasy not to go upstairs to see him.
Just as he was thinking, Xie Yunmeng stood up and walked to the door of the room where Candy's body was placed, and said, "I'd better go, Ms. Candy wrap it in a sheet and put it in the basement, it won't be long before the smell will come out, and everyone will be very uncomfortable." β
"Then be careful yourself, pay attention to turn on all the lights, the murderer may attack in the dark!"
"OK, no problem, don't worry!"
After speaking, Xie Yunmeng entered the room and closed the door with his hand. The people in the living room only heard the sound of corpses fiddling with the body in the room.
Just after Xie Yunmeng entered the room, there was also a sound in the room where Yan Meimi was, it was the coughing sound of the maid, and everyone's attention was immediately attracted to it.
"Madam, Millet is still alive!" Jasmyn said immediately.
Mrs. Lucifer was not shocked, but listened to the next movement in the room, and after a long time she said: "Xiaomi's voice seems to have changed, what do you think?" β
"I don't know, I'm not familiar with Miss Chenmeimi's voice." In fact, Mo Haiyou is not very interested in the voices of all women, so he has nothing to be embarrassed about when he tells the truth.
"I think Madame, can you take this opportunity to knock on the door again to see if there is something special about her." Mo Haiyou said tactfully.
"Alright then, I'll try."
Mrs. Lucifer walked to the door and knocked twice, then said inside, "Xiaomi, can you open the door, I guarantee that no one outside will hurt you." β
Again, the clichΓ©s assured that Mrs. Lucifer could not think of anything else to say, for Millet was nothing more than her temporary maid, and they did not usually get to know each other or say anything more.
A moment later, just as Mrs. Lucifer was about to return to her seat, the door opened without warning, and Mrs. Lucifer appeared at the door, still exactly like her original dress, Mrs. Lucifer was stunned for a moment, but the next second she took Mrs. Lucifer and let her sit in the center of the living room.
Yan Meimi didn't refuse, but just took the door of his room, and when the gap in the door was about to close, a black shadow flashed and disappeared on the edge of the big bed.
