However, Longbottom's smile quickly froze, as Ichie just kicked backwards and kicked Dr. Armstrong into the air.

At the same time, Longbottom felt his arm twisted, and then his body flew uncontrollably, and then hit... Dr. Armstrong who was kicked down.

It was only at this time that Yi Qi's fluttering words reached Longbottom's ears.

"If I want to kill you, I don't need to go to great lengths to beat around the bush......"

……

After throwing away Longbottom and the doctor, Ichi stretched and moved his wrists and neck.

As long as the body is strong enough to bully a few ordinary people who have not been strictly trained, Yi Qi is still more than enough.

Afterwards, Yi Qi turned to the old judge and the female teacher: "Are you also planning to make a personal attack on me?" Honestly, this kind of move... Very unwise! ”

Yiqi's thunderous counterattack has already deterred the female teacher. Vera, only the old judge remained calm.

"Sheriff Bloor, are you going to kill us all?"

"No~No~No!" Yi Qi stretched out his index finger and shook it lightly: "I said, I never kill anyone!" As long as you don't make personal attacks, I'm actually willing to cooperate with you.

Well~! Cooperate with you guys to find out the lovely Mr. Owen! ”

After staring into Yi Qi's eyes for a long time, and seeing that his expression did not seem to be fake, the old judge asked, "Mr. Longbottom's pistol has been lost, and I intend to conduct a more thorough search."

Including each of our rooms, belongings! Mr. Sheriff, do you have any comments? ”

"Of course not!" Yi Qixiao took two steps back, and said in a harmless tone: "I am willing to cooperate with you, as long as... This gives you peace of mind. ”

At the same time, the doctor and Longbottom, who had been thrown away, also staggered up from the ground and joined the old judge and the governess, but they were still wary in their eyes.

Yi Qi shook his head helplessly, crushing the strength of the level... It's really convincing, but if you want to rely on it to dispel everyone's doubts, it's undoubtedly a fool's dream......

……

The search was carried out in an orderly manner, and the first object to be searched was Yiqi.

didn't do anything wrong, of course Yi Qi was not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door.

Therefore, I don't mind everyone's vigilance, leaning against the door frame... Watch as the crowd rummags through their luggage and rooms.

Seeing Vera pick up the sheriff's notebook, Yi Qi kindly reminded: "After I received Mr. Owen's commission, I conducted a series of investigations, so it's better for you not to look at this thing." ”

It's a pity that this kind reminder only fueled Vera's curiosity, so she opened the notebook directly.

However, after reading the contents of the above record, Vera was slightly stunned at first, and then threw the notebook on the desk, and at the same time her face flushed with a touch of red.

Longbottom also heard what Iqi said, so he casually picked up the notebook and slipped it into his pocket casually.

Seeing that Yi Qi showed a smiling expression, Vera seemed to want to say something, but until the search was completed, she did not choose to speak, but her eyes flashed with a strange brilliance......

……

The rooms in the villa are not big, want to complete the search... In fact, it didn't take ten minutes, but in order to make the search more detailed, the time was forcibly increased to thirty minutes.

Pity... Still to no avail, no trace of the master key or the location of the pistol was found.

Faced with Yi Qi's smiling expression, everyone could only be indifferent, and then began to search the other rooms.

The first was Longbottom's room, and then the old judge and the doctor, and although they had been searched once, after half of them had died, a new round of searches had become inevitable.

In the end, even the female teacher was not exempt, after all, under the threat of death, everything is nothing, gentlemanly demeanor or something... After all, it can't withstand his own life.

Yi Qi had been watching from the sidelines, occasionally bringing in a glass of juice, but he was not optimistic about the search.

In this day and age, firearms are very lethal weapons, so losing a gun is never a trivial matter.

The murderer would not have kept it in his room at such a risk to steal the gun, and even if he did not carry it with him, he would hide the revolver in a secret place......

……

Just as Yi Qi guessed, he searched for a morning, but still couldn't find out why. However, everyone was not reconciled, so they conducted a carpet search of the villa.

It's a pity that the villa is too big, and only part of the area was checked, so I put a dry group of people tired and lay down.

In the morning, two deaths in succession had already made everyone panic, and then there was a small search for half a day, and the people who had not eaten a drop of water were already exhausted and hungry.

Seeing that night was approaching, a few people brought some canned food from the pantry to the restaurant and ate it like chewing wax.

At this time, everyone had no intention of continuing the search.

The place that should be searched has already been searched once, and if you want to conduct a more detailed search, it will not happen overnight.

Therefore, Longbottom suggested that everyone stay together and wait until the storm was over before finding a way to leave the island.

The proposal was unanimously approved, and seeing this... Yi Qi did not object.

It's just that after gathering together, the suspicions and contradictions hidden in my heart began to arise spontaneously......

……

At first, people were able to restrain their suspicions and contradictions, but with the sound of a thunderclap, the whole villa was plunged into darkness - the power was cut off.

It wasn't until Longbottom lit the candles that the commotion in the room gradually stopped, but the suspicion in people's eyes had turned into substance.

Longbottom was fine, just observing everyone's reactions and movements with a scrutinizing gaze.

In comparison, Dr. Armstrong was very unbearable, and he was so frightened by the sudden darkness that even his soul fluctuations became very disordered, and it seemed that he could collapse at any moment.

Governess. Vera was better than the doctor, but not much better, not only was her face pale at the moment, but her eyes flashed with uneasiness and panic.

The old judge's expression was quite calm, but his gray eyes had lost the last of their brilliance, as if they were about to die.

After quelling the commotion, the governess suddenly got up and walked towards the door.

However, this seemingly ordinary act provoked the anxious doctor, causing him to cry out, "Where are you going?" ”

"Go make tea, I'll bring it!" Vera was a little absent-minded, apparently not noticing the doctor's strange expression.

At this point, the doctor could no longer control his emotions and jumped out of his chair... Hysterically yelled, "What else are you going to bring?" Knives in the kitchen? Or the gun you secretly hidden? ”

Vera defended herself with a pale face, "I don't know how to carry a knife, and I don't have a gun. ”

"That's... Add something to the tea, you want to kill us. ”

The doctor has lost his mind, ordinary justification ... Obviously, it doesn't work, and this groundless accusation also annoys the female teacher.

The governess raised her voice and screamed sarcastically, "Even if I had a gun, I wouldn't kill all of you at the same time, would I?" ”

"How do I know ......"

The doctor was out of control, yelling loudly without grace, but... Before he could finish yelling, he was directly interrupted by Vera.

"Because they all die one after the other, in a specific way of dying, or do you not pay attention at all, and there is no mention of guns in the poem at all? You stupid idiot! ”
