Chapter 443: The Final Investigation Before Dawn IV
The shadow quickly found the end of the secret passage, where there was a large cliff covered in vegetation, and instead of immediately burrowing out of the thick green covering, he rummaged between the greens and observed. Mi Xiaodong hid in the shadow of the cave, and his eyes never left the back of the black shadow.
The black shadow seemed to be very frightened, he flipped over the plant a few times, then stepped back a little, and after observing it for a while, he went up and turned over the plant on the other side, and continued to repeat the same action, as if some animal in the plant would attack him.
Mi Xiaodong thought of the word poisonous snake, in this kind of humid and warm place, it is indeed easy to entrench poisonous creatures, or some insects, lizards and other things, but there is no need to check so repeatedly, the exit is such a big place, can't you find a safe place and leave the underpass quickly? There is no need to open every place, even the up, down, left and right plants, to look at it, isn't it easier to alarm some animals hidden inside?
The exit of the secret passage is very large, exactly the same as back then, Mi Xiaodong let himself get a little closer, and continued to observe quietly, and finally, the black shadow in front of him wiped the cold sweat on his head and stopped moving. He looked behind him, didn't notice where Mi Xiaodong was hiding, and then quickly disappeared outside the exit.
Mi Xiaodong waited for two or three seconds before he walked over, and when the tips of his fingers were about to touch the plants at the entrance of the cave, he suddenly shrank back like an electric shock, and Mi Xiaodong snorted fiercely: "Cunning bastard!" ”
Why is this happening? It was because Mi Xiaodong saw a brown spotted object hidden between the green, it was the body of a snake, and that guy was not looking for any poisonous creature at all, but was attracting the venomous creature entrenched nearby to the entrance of the cave.
No matter what method he used? Have you found anyone behind the stalk? This trick is definitely vicious enough, if someone follows and wants to lift the plant in front of them, then don't even think about it, they will definitely be bitten immediately!
'What now?' I can't let that thing attack, I've got to get it out of the way first! Mi Xiaodong thought, but he couldn't waste too much time, because the people outside were likely to hide in places they couldn't find during this time, and he wasn't sure if the lavender villa was here? If you can't keep up with the goal, then today's action will be in vain.
A little farther away, Mi Xiaodong began to look around for a suitable tool, there was not even a broken branch on the ground, and there were only leaves falling from plants near the exit, there was really no way, Mi Xiaodong took off his coat and prepared to use his coat to drive away the poisonous snake hanging on the plant rattan.
But after he teased it a few times, he found that the brown spotted thing was still in the original place, and the head and tail of the poisonous snake were not exposed, Mi Xiaodong felt very strange, he approached and directly pulled the plant with his hand, and the thing in the middle of the plant was still hanging there motionless.
Mi Xiaodong gritted his teeth, no matter how much he grabbed and pulled with his hand, the thing was in the palm of his hand, and after seeing it clearly, the result really made him cry and laugh, it turned out that it was just a rubber tube, which was made to look like the body of a poisonous snake, and both ends were densely covered with plant branches and leaves, which was really good.
Mi Xiaodong threw away the camouflage in his hand, he almost ran away in anger, he put on his clothes again, and got out of the entrance and exit at one end, but things with camouflage do not necessarily mean that there is no backhand, when Mi Xiaodong's shoulder rubbed against the edge of the cliff, a tingling pain came, and there were two small blood holes under his shoulder without warning, and a small blue-black snake fell to the ground and quickly passed by his feet.
Mi Xiaodong's first reaction was to open his clothes, pinch the wound hard and squeeze out the blood inside, when he saw that the blood was red, he realized that the little snake was not poisonous, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, a series of things are really dangerous, Mi Xiaodong was more and more confused by this suspect, what is he? It makes sense to use camouflage to stop the stalker's footsteps, and then arrange real danger behind the camouflage to kill the bold.
But why was it a non-venomous snake that bit him? Unless it's just a coincidence, otherwise Mi Xiaodong really can't explain it.
He couldn't stay in this place for long, so he had to hide his doubts in his heart and hurried to look for the suspect who had left before, but when he saw the scene outside the exit, he immediately stopped again, this was not the edge of the cliff at all, but another passage!
Mi Xiaodong couldn't believe his eyes, it turned out that this place was a solid cliff, he clearly saw it when he rescued Xie Yunmeng before, there could be no mistake, if you want to turn this place into a passage, the cliffs on both sides must be all filled, it is absolutely impossible to do such a thing.
In fact, Mi Xiaodong only cared about tracking the suspect, and did not carefully observe the previous passage, the first half of the passage was indeed left by drug traffickers, but the second half of the passage has changed its direction, no longer leading to the outside of the cliff, but following the original appearance, re-excavated little by little, and unconsciously inclined to the inside of the mountain.
Therefore, his current location is still in the 'belly' of the mountain, and it is far from the original entrance, that is, the cliff. The hanging plants, the rubber tubes used for camouflage in the middle of the plants, and the living green snake are indeed camouflage left by the suspect, but not by one person, but by two people.
Therefore, in addition to Mi Xiaodong and Luo Yifan, there are two people who know the existence of this secret passage, one of whom is the murderer, and the identity of the other will not be revealed until the truth of the case is revealed.
Let Mi Xiaodong continue to walk along the passage, which is leaning down little by little, and he will soon enter the underground of the lavender villa. It was around three o'clock in the morning on the third day.
——
The woman in the opposite room never raised her head, Luo Yifan gradually felt that something was wrong, she walked staggeringly, and the person moved towards the door little by little, as if she was ready to open the door and leave the room at any time.
And the whole Westinghouse didn't look right, it seemed to be constantly tilting to the west, Luo Yifan heard the sound of something breaking and falling downstairs, he realized that something was wrong, and he didn't care about the situation at the scene, so he pushed the corpse hanging in the window to the side, and then leaned down to the window and looked down.
At this time, part of the foundation of the West House had sunk into the soil, and the whole house was tilted very much, and it didn't take long for Luo Yifan to enter the East House, and the house on the side had already become like this, but Xie Yunmeng didn't make a sound at all.
'Something happened to him!' When these four words came to mind, where could Luo Yifan care about the corpse anymore? He rushed down the stairs like crazy and climbed out of the stairwell window to the outside, trying to go back to the rescue.
But where is there still a place to stand at Luo Yifan's feet? The soil had already collapsed with the cracks, and as soon as he pulled out of the window, the man immediately slid down with the dirt into the underground cavern. But fortunately, the reaction was quite fast, and both hands immediately grabbed the wood on the edge of the foundation of the house, so that it did not continue to slide.
The house above his head made a terrifying creaking sound, and it was still sinking, and Luo Yifan desperately crawled along the edge to the door of the house, shouting Xie Yunmeng's name in his mouth, hoping to get a response. But he couldn't hear any words in his ears, which made Luo Yifan so anxious that he could only shake the door that was close at hand.
Due to Luo Yifan's desperate movement of the house, the soil around the foundation is collapsing faster and faster, and the underground cave is bottomless at a glance, if Luo Yifan wants to escape at this moment, there is still a way, because the lavender flower field behind him is not completely destroyed, as long as he can reach the edge of the flower field, he can climb into the still intact place, and then escape.
However, if he left it alone, the house could sink all the way and completely collapse into the ground, how deep is the ground? Luo Yifan had no way to predict, he only knew that if he didn't care about Xie Yunmeng and the people inside now, their survival would really be slim.
Luo Yifan re-felt the death crisis that Hong Huijian had created for him back then, and the heart of the 'red-eyed ghost god' began to sink into darkness, and the color in his eyes was also gloomy, showing the most intense state, as if he was about to drip blood.
Once again, the situation is forced, the 'red-eyed ghost god' is ready to use his own method to solve the problem, the murderer's life and death are left behind him, and he only wants to save Mr. Detective now, no matter what method is used!
Five minutes, ten minutes passed, and Luo Yifan's figure could no longer be seen under the lavender villa, as if he had exhausted his strength and fell deeper into a deeper place, the huge black shadow under the control of the demon was still sinking, and a large field of lavender flowers was about to sink into the ground with it.
Immediately next to the dark shadow, the sound of a human being vomiting violently began to erupt from another house that stood firmly, and screams from weak to strong, flames came out from between the two houses, and a man rushed out of the window on the second floor of the east house, carrying another human body whose front was burned by fire, this person covered his cheeks with his hands, and his mouth kept screaming.
The Red-Eyed Ghost made a bet that was unlikely to succeed, but he won, and now he had another bet to make, one that could make him a murderer himself.
But the man has become a 'ghost', and there is nothing that can stop him from taking the next action, unless Yun Yeyao and Mo Haiyou can arrive in time to relieve the crisis they are now facing.
There was no place to stay, the man used his height to pounce directly on the window of another house, and after grasping it, he climbed into the window of the dangerous house, and hung the hands of the man who was burned by the fire on the window, and the man's feet were still connected to the window of the east house.
When the man entered the house, he used what he was carrying with him to extinguish the fire on the outsider, and then he sneered and said, "You hang it like this!" Wait for the house to rip your body! ”
"Don't, let go of my feet, don't!!" The voice of the man hanging outside the window shouted hoarsely as he saw that the man was ready to use the same method as his feet, against his hands. At this time, he was not allowed to think about anything else, and saving his life became the only thing he wanted to do.
He shouted hoarsely, "The Westinghouse won't collapse so easily, there is a rocky foundation underneath. I've poisoned Mr. Detective, and the others aren't ready to kill at all, they're all my scapegoats!! Wu Weiyun can prove this matter!! ”
"Just now, Bai Yun and Wen Yuan's behavior just now and the dead criminal policeman are enough to influence the direction of the police's judgment!! I just need to pretend to be a victim and lie down in the living room of the West Winghouse, where the foundation will only collapse partially to the west, and there are rocks under the lavender fields on the west side, so it is impossible for the house to sink completely into the ground!! You let me go!! Please!! ”
However, his words made the 'Red-Eyed Ghost God' even more angry, and he actually killed Xie Yunmeng!! The 'ghost' raised the object in his hand and was about to smash it on the arm of the person outside the window, when the door behind him made a loud noise, and a man and a woman rushed in at the same time, and the petite woman in front of the tall figure rushed desperately to the person hanging outside the window.
Holding his arm, he turned back to the 'red-eyed ghost god' and begged, "Please, don't kill him!" I am an accomplice with him, let's be judged by the law together!! ”
The 'ghost' put down the thing in his hand, did not answer the woman's words, but looked at the door, the person standing there made the color in his pupils fade instantly, the 'ghost' smiled, and then said: "I have no intention of killing him, I still have three children, I will never be a murderer, but what happened just now, Mr. Detective, you have to keep it a secret for me!" ”
"You guy!!" The man at the door gritted his teeth and said, "Didn't you say that it was good to listen to my arrangement?!! ”
But in the next second, he swallowed the other words back into his stomach, he knew that if it weren't for the person in front of him, they wouldn't have been so easy for the murderer to confess, and that person made this decision to save him.
Looking at the gradually rising flames in the other room, the criminal policeman only said: "You watch here, I'll go to the other side to solve the problem!" He hurried out of the room again, the road connecting the two houses had been completely destroyed, but this would not be an obstacle for Mr. Detective, and he quickly climbed out of the house through the window on the other side, and entered the murder scene where Fu Zhi's body was, freeing the feet of the man at the window first.
Blood kept gushing out of the man's soft feet, staining the lilac walls red, and the 'ghost' standing in place pulled the person into the room, and then the woman who was with him saw clearly that although his lover's feet were injured, there were no multiple injuries to the front of his body and face, only some slight burns. There was a charred cover on his face that fell from his body.
The woman hugged her lover who had just come in and cried bitterly, while the 'ghost' leaned to the side and watched, he could see that this woman's love was real, if it wasn't, she wouldn't want to bear the blame with the man, in fact, the woman could stay out of it, and the 'ghost' thought that she was a deceived and fooled person.
When Mr. Detective turned back to the Westinghouse again, and everything was settled, the time was close to 5:30 a.m. on the third day, and they waited for the tilt and collapse of the Westinghouse of Lavender Villa to stop, waiting for the true murderer's words to be verified.
