Chapter 171 No Survivors (14)

Female teacher by the fireplace, in a comfortable chair. Vera is wrapped in a thick blanket... There was a fire, and behind her, Longbottom, who had just changed his clothes.

After what had just happened, Vera had regained her composure, as for... Longbottom, he is still the same, but between the two, there is a trace of ambiguity.

Yi Qi can understand, after all... This is also one of the rules of the game - people are always accustomed to cling to the strong and trample on the weak.

Moreover, Vera is also very capitalized, her beautiful face and figure can not only attach to the strong, but even conquer ......

……

Longbottom wiped the rain from his hair and said to the crowd, "I'll just say Owen is on the island." ”

The doctor asked, "How do you know?" ”

"Intuition!"

"We need to keep our sanity, Mr. Longbottom." The old judge stopped the pointless argument and said, "First of all, we need to find out who Mr. Owen really is. ”

Ms. Blunt took a sip of her cup of hot tea and said, "And Mrs. Owen!" ”

"I don't think Mrs. Owen exists."

"What if, Mr. Owen, doesn't exist either?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then looked at Yi Qi.

Yi Qi didn't think it was a big deal, and the old god added on the ground: "What if one of us knows all of us and sends us an invitation?" ”

"How is this possible!"

Ms. Blunt instinctively retorted, but when she saw the smiling eyes of Yi Qi, her arrogance suddenly disappeared: "I know a doctor, and I can still be able to do it, but a person like Mr. Longbottom ......"

Yi Qi didn't get angry with Ms. Blunt, but said lightly: "So, the guy who used Mr. Owen's name must have conducted a detailed investigation on us. ”

Longbottom interjected and asked, "Why did he do that?" ”

"It depends on what we all have in common!"

Everyone instantly remembered the previous accusation, and at the same time, the study fell silent.

After a long time, the old judge raised his head and looked at Longbottom: "Mr. Longbottom, the doctor told me that you have a revolver. ”

"Yes, I take it with me everywhere!" Longbottom confessed: "Moreover, the other party hinted that it might be useful." ”

"Who's the other party?"

Longbottom stared into the old judge's eyes and said, "I came here with a commission from Mr. Owen, and he needed someone who could handle complex situations and be improvisable on the island.

But now, it's a big lie. ”

Governess. Vera chimed in, "I think so too, I was hired by Mrs. Owen, but I don't even know who the other person is. ”

The old judge nodded, and said, "I have also received an invitationβ€”Mr. and Mrs. Owen, whom I have never met, to come to the island as a guest to meet a mutual friend, Mrs. Culmington.

At the same time, the letter also said... It's the perfect place to retreat. ”

"It's a moral depravity." Ms. Blount refilled herself with a cup of hot tea, and commented, "This island is a godless desert of sin. ”

The doctor asked, "Why are you here?" Ms. Blunt? ”

Ms. Blunt glanced casually at the doctor, and then replied calmly, "Mrs. Owen has written to me, and is interested in my work, the moral education of women in the lower classes.

Mrs. Owen believes that lower-class women need to learn to be modest and decent, otherwise... There will be a bunch of abandoned children waiting to be fed. So, she wanted to contribute to my career. ”

Yi Qi spread his hands and said, "Look! Mr. Owen has investigated us very clearly, so there must be similarities in us, whether you like to admit it or not. ”

Yi Qi's remarks caused a small commotion, and the old judge tapped his crutches hard to restore calm to the scene.

Immediately, he turned to Yi Qi: "Sheriff, you haven't said why you're here." ”

"I also received a commission from Mr Owen, who admired my position in the police force, and the letter said... If I could find time to come here and keep an eye on him, he would reward me generously. ”

"Staring at what?"

"The commission said that Mr. Owen suspected that someone had come under a false identity and provided a list of guests." Yi Qi smiled inexplicably again and said, "At first, I was surprised by the content of the commission.

As the initiator of the party, how could Mr. Owen not find out that someone was being impersonated?

Only now do I understand that among us... It is true that someone was impersonated, but instead of using a fake identity, he hid his true identity. ”

Vera wondered, "Hidden your true identity?" ”

"Yes, Mr. Owen."

"How is this possible!"

"Why can't it be?" Yi Qi glanced at the stunned Ms. Blount and said lightly, "Who stipulates that Mr. Owen must be a personal name?" It may just be a code name.

So, it is possible that Mr. Owen is a doctor, a teacher, a judge, or even a sheriff! ”

Vera said incredulously, "You mean, Mr. Owen is hiding among us. ”

"If, Mr. Longbottom, had not found the eleventh man on this island, besides us, then... Mr. Owen will have to hide among us. ”

Yi Qi turned his head to look at Longbottom, who nodded in response, "I think there are only us on the island, unless... He was going to be drenched outside. ”

Click~!

As soon as Longbottom's words fell, a thunderclap reached everyone's cochlea, followed by an electric snake that streaked across the sky, and a torrential rain, a storm, began......

……

As a result, it is destined to be unhappy.

Even if Yi Qi picked out the situation, everyone still couldn't discuss a result, and the people who had only been together for less than two days couldn't trust each other unconditionally, not to mention that there was still Mr. Owen hidden in it.

However, Yi Qi gradually figured out what Mr. Owen was thinking.

Accusations, islands, the appearance of the dead, mutual suspicion, and... The fear and torment that gradually arise in the heart are a kind of punishment in disguise, punishing the sins committed by others.

It is also because of this that Yi Qi will find out the situation.

The reason is very simple, one is to warn Mr. Owen that he has seen through his intentions and not to bother himself, and the second is to help Mr. Owen - only when the water is mixed can he fish better.

They discussed for an afternoon, but to no avail, and then enjoyed a sumptuous dinner, and went to bed.

But... Dinner time housekeeper. Rogers brought bad news, there was not much food on the island, and if Narakot couldn't bring supplies in time, the crowd would be going to nibble on the cans.

Luckily, there is a lot of wine stored in the cellar, so you can supply it in unlimited quantities......
