254. Emotional taboos
After an arm's length away, Gao Cheng lifted the madman first, and I worked together to turn the man up. But as soon as the rope was light, Gao Cheng jumped into the water again, and I was stunned to see the whirlpool that had opened, and his person was gone.
But in an instant, someone shouted in my ear: "Look at that! Quick, throw the lifebuoy over. ”
Following the line of sight, someone emerged from the water more than ten meters away. Almost everyone I knew on the boat was underwater! Xie Rui, Luo Jinghan, and Qu Xinhua were almost mixed up, and I couldn't tell who was carrying whom, and suddenly a person appeared under the water, and I fixed my eyes to see that it was Gao Cheng. He swam forward and pulled Luo Jinghan's hand, took Qu Xin's painting to the side of the boat, and then turned back to pick up Luo Jinghan and Xie Rui.
Looking at this situation, I couldn't help but slowly squint my eyes, what about Aman?
Judging from their stiff actions, not to mention Luo Jinghan's own poisoning, Xie Rui and Qu Xinhua also seemed to be injured, otherwise there was no need for Gao Cheng to pick them up one by one. The only person I can think of who will hurt them is Ah Man who roared out before, but Ah Man is not seen among all of them. The madman was still lying unconscious on the ground, and it was impossible for Ah Man to leave him alone.
While he was thinking, a sudden sound erupted in the water, and a black shadow dehydrated, spun in the air, and when it fell, it was on the lifebuoy floating on the water, and then rose again. It was only a few times that the man came closer, and I saw the opportunity to throw the reins over, and he grabbed it in the air, and I didn't need to pull it, and I just borrowed my own strength to return to the boat.
He steadied himself and rushed over, bending down to probe the madman's breath. The matter was urgent, and I hadn't had time to see the madman before, but I could feel his pulse as I pulled him up. But after seeing Ah Man's probing, he went to open the madman's clothes, and before I could see what he wanted, I suddenly heard a strange movement from behind me, and I intuitively turned back.
Seeing that Gao Cheng and several people had gone ashore, Qu Xinhua shrank behind him with his hands on his shoulders and trembled, Luo Jinghan stood there with a stiff face full of water, and was helped by Gao Cheng to stand firm. Xie Rui was the only one who fell to the ground, but no one stepped forward to help, his glasses didn't know where they went, his hair covered his face and he was very embarrassed, and he stared straight at that place, "Han, why?" ”
"Why?" Luo Jinghan repeated his question, and instead shouted angrily: "I also want to ask you why?" What is it that has destroyed your heart and made you forget your brotherhood with Brother Cheng to listen to a mad woman? Where will all that you do go? ”
"He's damned!" A man's gloomy voice rose from the side, my heart sank, and before I could react, I saw a black shadow flashing quickly from the side. He swept towards Xie Rui, with a murderous aura, and made a killing move! But just half a meter away from Xie Rui, Gao Cheng's figure swept and stopped, neither of them spoke, and one attack and one defense revolved around Xie Rui.
I only heard Luo Jinghan saying: "He is determined to break up you and Xiao Xia, why do you want to protect him anymore, Brother Cheng." ”
At this point, if I haven't seen a gap between them, I'm really twitching my head. However, it's not just a gap, before and after Luo Jinghan, and then thinking about the conversation between him and Gao Cheng when he was in the operation room before, it seems that something has become clear.
But I can't calm down at this moment to analyze, because Ah Man's moves, all the moves are killing moves, he really wants to put Xie Rui to death. The only thing that could make him like this is a madman. I didn't even dare to look down at the madman lying on the ground, he was ...... What's wrong?
His gaze shifted downwards from the madman's sunken face, and his pupils contracted sharply when his gaze touched his belly. Instead, my eyes widened, what was that? Looking closer, two black triangles appeared on the madman's belly and lower abdomen, the material was like a piece of iron, and the blood had stained his clothes and pants red, but he could not see it because he had been covered by his coat before. Wait, the madman is wearing a very wide coat, how did this metal triangle fit into his belly?
I hesitated for a moment and reached out to touch it, but as soon as I touched it, I heard Luo Jinghan shouting urgently: "Xiao Xia, don't pull it out!" I looked up in surprise and saw him running over and shaking my head, "I can't pull it out, it will bleed non-stop, and the medical equipment on the ship will not have time to rescue it." ”
My heart sank, and I asked, "What is this?" "As far as I can see, it's not a piece of metal, it's a bit like plastic. Luo Jinghan's eyes shrank and replied, "Tarot cards." ”
I'm stunned, is it a card? The madman has such a small triangle in his belly, isn't it almost the whole card inserted? Wait, what card does he say? Tarot cards? I turned my head and looked at Xie Rui, who was lying to the ground.
Group D, one person, one identity.
Gao Cheng is a Kanyu teacher, Luo Jinghan is a communicator, and Qu Xinhua is a pharmacist, all of which I have witnessed with my own eyes. Including Qiu Yuebai's identity as a wizard, it is also consistent with her own performance, but Xie Rui's identity, I haven't figured it out, until this moment, I suddenly realized.
Tarot cards, soothsayers.
If the name is divination, it is not necessarily divination, but it can also be ...... Flying cards like blades!
"Aman." I called softly, but without waiting for a response, I was furious: "Fight, fight! Do you want to stop beating people until they are really dead? Save people! "At the end of the yell, I bent down to take the madman's head, and he was so cold that he could barely feel his breath. Just as I was dragging it up, I suddenly felt that my hands were empty, and the madman had been picked up by the black shadow and strode away.
The fierce battle finally stopped, and Ah Man's cold and hard back was still full of anger, "If the madman dies, I will bury the whole boat." "It's like a magic sound from hell, carrying the water vapor in the river.
I stood up and looked back at Gao Cheng, whether he could understand the meaning in my eyes at this moment, he turned around and strode after Aman. Instead of carrying the man into the previous cabin, I followed him closely, and I wanted to ask where he was going to take the madman, but I saw him stop in front of a cabin, and when I raised my foot, I kicked the hatch, and the door opened, and my eyes immediately turned to see that it was an infirmary, and there was a medical staff in the room who was staring at us with frightened eyes.
Ah Man didn't even look at him, and directly put the madman on the medical bed, and began to undress him and tear it up. But when the card was inserted near the body, Ah Man didn't treat it with brute force, and pulled the doctor over with an arrow step, and Han ordered: "Use scissors to cut the fabric near the wound." The doctor acted immediately under threat, and although his hands were shaking, he quickly cut the fabric around the card.
Ah Man ordered again: "Bring the hemostatic medicine and disinfectant." ”
The doctor's face stiffened, and he said frankly: "If this card is pulled out, it will move the blood vessels, I'm afraid that the hemostatic medicine alone will not work, and it needs to be rescued by immediate blood transfusion." However, there are not many blood types of plasma on the ship, and I am afraid that it will be ......", and I hesitated to speak, and I also heard its danger. But Ah Man didn't care, his eyebrows and eyes were fierce: "Prepare immediately." ”
The doctor hesitated, and Gao Cheng's voice came from the door: "Do as he says." He walked into the cabin, looked at the madman on the bed, then looked back at me, pulled me to the side, and said, "Come with me first and change your clothes before you come over." ”
After being reminded by him, he looked down at himself, only to find that his coat was almost completely wet, which was caused by the water vapor brought by the crazy man and Aman when they came ashore before. I shook my head, "I'm fine, let's save the madman first." But the doctor said, "It's better for the lady to avoid it, because you have to remove all the wet clothes on the injured person before you can treat it." ”
My body stiffened, it turned out that Gao Cheng was going to take me away, and nodded awkwardly and exited the cabin. Soon the hatch was closed inside, and figures moved in the blurred windowpanes. I took two steps to come back to my senses, and when I came to the cabin in Gaocheng, he let go of me and went to change my clothes.
Only then did I ask the question that came to my mind: "Have you suspected him for a long time?" ”
"Since you painted the shadow." Takajo replied. I was stunned, "Is it because of my paintings?" He nodded, "The logic of behavior is not affected by subjective thinking, when there are two possibilities for a thing, it must be argued from two directions, so as to obtain the possibility closest to the truth." Little bamboo, you are still guilty of the taboo of being emotional. ”
I...... Indeed, when a proposition came out, the mind had consciously chosen to be biased, there were two people standing on Chen Yong's side, but on one side was Xie Rui, I subconsciously excluded him first, and targeted the captain. On the contrary, Gao Cheng did not have a protective heart for Xie Rui, but treated him fairly.
If that's the case, wouldn't it ...... "The captain has nothing to do with the murder from beginning to end, and is not a puppet of Qiu Yuebai?" ”
"He's been chosen to be a substitute." Gao Cheng turned around after changing his clothes, his eyebrows furrowed, "From the moment Jean Qu put the poison in the glass of the captain's cabin, he has been locked. On the surface, it seems that Chen Yong will be killed first, but in fact, it is to pave the way for killing the captain, because someone wants the ship to not reach that shore. If it doesn't end, the next person to die will be the first mate, the captain and other crew members. ”
I always thought that the motive for the killing was to frame the blame and to target me, but I didn't think that there was a deeper motive behind it. But what I can't figure out is: "Chen Yong's death was poisoned by him, so how to solve the captain's murder case in the secret room?" ”
I clearly remember that there were three footprints from the front of the hatch to the captain's corpse: Aman, Luo Jinghan, and Qu Xinhua.
Ah Man was caused by rushing in and sweeping straight to the corpse, Luo Jinghan and Qu Xinhua were for autopsy, so what should have been the murderer's footprints? If Ah Man was a backward enterer, then it could be interpreted that the traces were wiped off after the killing, but Ah Man rushed in almost at the same time as the captain died, and there was no time for the murderer to deal with the scene.
Gao Cheng said: "Haven't you already unraveled it?" ”
"Top window? Under the plank? I pondered and shook my head: "No, it's not the top window, the murder happened during the day, and if you climb on the top window to kill someone, you have to take a big risk, so it must come out under the plank." There are no footprints because the feet don't come out from underneath, and a fast and sharp weapon that can cut a person's throat at once can fly, tarot! ”<
