Early in the morning of the third day on the island, Yi Qi was still napping in bed when he was awakened by the rapid and chaotic sound of gongs.

Looking up at the time, it was only past eight o'clock in the morning, and then Yi Qi looked out the window again.

The storm continued, and the sky was as dark as night, and it was a good day to sleep.

Yi Qi waited for a moment, and when he saw that the gong was still not stopping, he reluctantly stepped off the warm bed.

The man who struck the gong... It was Dr. Armstrong, and when he saw the guests gathered, he led the way to the kitchen without saying a word, but Ichie could see that his hands were trembling.

Not long after, people were at the entrance of the firewood room and saw the housekeeper who had been disemboweled. Rogers.

"Ah~!"

Governess. Vera let out an exclamation and threw herself into Longbottom's arms, while Miss Blount closed her eyes and drew a cross on her chest.

As for... Longbottom and the old judge, one of them was comforting the governess, the other was frowning and observing the corpse.

After taking a full picture of everyone's reactions, the doctor said in a trembling voice, "In the morning, I wanted a cup of coffee, so I came to Rogers, and then I found this." ”

After calming Vera, Longbottom leaned down and touched the blood that had coagulated: "I'm afraid he lay down all night." ”

"It's the poem!" Vera screamed, "Seven little soldiers, it's not easy to cut down trees and branches; The axe split in half and died, and only six of the seven remained. ”

Perhaps under the influence of the female teacher, the doctor's face turned extremely pale: "You're right, it's that poem!" But... There are no beehives or bees! ”

Looking at the situation, everyone finally accepted the reality.

Immediately, Yi Qi recalled the fifth sentence of the poem - six little soldiers, playing with the beehive to provoke the anger of the bees; There was a whimper, and only five of the six were left......

……

Fear is a contagious emotion, so when the female teacher and the doctor showed frightened expressions one after another, the rest of them also revealed uneasiness, anxiety and doubts in their eyes.

Anxiety is about the environment, anxiety is about one's own safety, and doubt is about the hidden Mr. Owen.

Unable to adapt to this bloody environment, the two ladies left the firewood room first, and then... The old judge also made a gentleman's salute and slowly left on crutches.

Only Ichie, the doctor, and Longbottom remained at the scene of the butler's death.

After a cursory examination of the body, Longbottom suggested, "We'll have to find something to wrap him up." ”

"Great idea!" Yi Qi nodded approvingly, and said, "If you can, you'd better carry Mr. Butler's body to Mrs. Rogers's room, so... They will be reunited. ”

Longbottom raised his head and looked into Yi Qi's eyes: "Sheriff, this joke is not funny!" ”

Yi Qi spread his hands: "I never joke. ”

The doctor, who had been tormented by fear, was finally detonated by this cold-blooded remark, and then shouted loudly: "Mr. Sheriff, are you a cold-blooded animal? Why turn a blind eye to everything?

Or are you Mr. Owen? ”

Yi Qi spread his hands again: "I never kill anyone." ”

Afterwards, Yi Qi ignored the two of them and turned around and returned to his room.

It wasn't until Ichie's back disappeared that the doctor said viciously, "I bet Sheriff Bloor is Mr. Owen." ”

Longbottom shook his head negatively: "If I were Mr. Owen, I would definitely hide myself carefully, instead of always doing amazing things like the sheriff."

Sheriff Blore is really dangerous, though......"

……

Not long after Yi Qi returned to the room, the gong once again resounded throughout the villa, and the reason was simple - the female teacher. Vera noticed that there was one less porcelain figure in the restaurant.

And the people gathered together at this moment also happened to be five - minus the mean Ms. Blunt.

Although the outcome had already been guessed, the crowd conducted a thorough search of the entire villa, and found the long-dead Ms. Blount in a side hall.

Ms. Blunt sat upright on the sofa with a calm face, and a sharp cone was pierced around her neck.

"Was... The bee stung. ”

Looking at the corpse of Ms. Blunt, the female teacher. Vera lost her mind, and when she came back to her senses, she felt that it was not appropriate to say this, and then reached out to cover her mouth.

Ichie walked up to Ms. Blunt, pinched her chin and said, "It doesn't look like the awl is a fatal injury. ”

Looking at Ms. Blunt's blue face, Dr. Armstrong couldn't help but mutter, "Cyanide? ”

"That's how it should be."

At this moment, the search was underway... Longbottom, who was unusually silent, spoke: "My pistol was stolen while I was dealing with the blood stains inside the kitchen. ”

The room fell silent in an instant.

"The door is locked, so there must be a master key." Longbottom suddenly turned to Yi Qi and asked, "In the morning, when the doctor struck the gong to gather the crowd, you were the last to go downstairs."

And much later than the others, what were you doing then, Sergeant Bloor? ”

The four eyes converged in an instant, and seeing that he had become the target of everyone, Yi Qi raised his hands and asked harmlessly, "Do you suspect that I stole your pistol?" ”

Longbottom, however, said in a categorical tone, "You killed Rogers!" Then, you take his master key and go back to your room to sleep.

When we were attracted by the sound of the gong and ran downstairs, you went into my room and took my gun! ”

Seeing Longbottom pressing towards him violently, Yi Qi couldn't help but take two steps back: "Although you won't believe it, I still have to explain - I was sleeping lazily in the morning." ”

"I'm knocking so loudly, you're still sleeping?" The doctor raised his voice and shouted in an emotionally unstable voice, "Also, when Longbottom and I were cleaning up Rogers' body.

Only you, bastard, returned to the second floor! ”

"Suspicion... I can understand it, but personal attacks are not good! Yi Qi slowly turned to the doctor and said contemptuously, "Moreover, I want to kill you......"

……

The moment Yi Qi turned around, Longbottom made a move, he first strode towards Yi Qi, and then waved his right arm, intending to take advantage of his unpreparedness... Sneak attack from behind.

However, as if he had eyes on the back of his head, Yi Qi leaned slightly to avoid Longbottom's full slash to the side of his neck.

The most incredible situation is that Yi Qi also grabbed Longbottom's arm with his backhand, and like a steel tong, Longbottom couldn't move.

Longbottom, however, was not discouraged.

Because, the moment he made his move, the doctor also launched an attack on Yi Qi at the same time, as if he had received a signal, and at this moment... The doctor had come behind Ichine......
