163 Hide and Seek(7)

Everyone looked at it, but no, there were originally three dolls left, and now there are only two left, almost one dead without one, everyone was guessing before, whether Zhang Ying and Mei Li's death was related to the doll, now it is almost certain.

"Oh, how can this be," the good housekeeper's face also flashed with fear, "When you went out to find Mr. Xu, Xiaoqiu Xiaodong and I were waiting for you in the villa, only those who went out just now, no one came in, how could this doll disappear under our noses?" ”

I stared at the only two dolls left on the table, and if my memory was correct, the princess dress my brother was wearing was the one worn by the newly disappeared doll.

As the words of the good housekeeper fell, there was a dead silence in the living room, and it was loud for a long time, Xu Guanyang finally cried uncontrollably: "I want to go back, I want to go back, what should I do, is it not me who dies next, I don't want to die, I don't want to die......"

He is not a weak person, but in the three murders in a row, his woman and his friend have died, and he is now in the same mood as Xu Yingjun, on the verge of collapse.

Yan Bin's eyes were also red, he was not as emotionally broken as Xu Guanyang, Panji was his best brother, and the self-blame and guilt that he didn't protect him in his chest made him hate the murderer more and more.

Yin Yan's face was not good, and he turned pale and miserable: "There were ten people when I came, and now there are seven left, if a doll represents a human life, we will have at least two more deaths." ”

He slowly shifted his gaze to me and Qiu Shishi: "Five dolls in five rooms, one dead in each room, and if there are two more, it is likely that two of the four of us will be, and the most likely will be Ban Zhi and Ban Lan." ”

I stared at Ban Zhi deadly: "Yes, it's good to kill me." ”

Ban Zhi, who was beside Yin Yan, did not have the momentum just now, his eyes returned to dead silence, and his eyes were slightly lowered to the ground, as if he didn't notice what I meant to say.

"Lan Lan ......" Yin Yu called my name softly, helplessly doting and faintly lingering.

The poet pulled me into his arms and dragged me to sit down, so that we could talk privately and see the people in the living room.

"I think, it shouldn't have been your sister's doing, and your sister has been intent on protecting your brother since Zhang Ying's death, she may know something, but the murderer is not her."

I looked up and glared at him accusingly, I knew that I had no reason to speak now, and I didn't want to speak for my sister at such a time, and even my eyes were red.

Qiu Shishi raised his head and blindfolded my eyes, his palms were so hot, compared to my cold body, that I almost thought that tears were about to flow out of my eyes.

"Ban Lan, don't let these negativity blind you."

His voice was deep, with a hint of hoarseness, coupled with the heat in the palm of his hand, like a cup of hot tea drunk on a cold day, plus that trace of sandalwood, which can iron into the heart.

I didn't take his hand away, although it was dark in front of me, it made me feel safer, like a wronged child, I could hide in the place where I felt safest.

"Dead man," I tried to tear out the marks at my mouth, but I kept trembling as I moved, "You say, if only I could shed tears, I can't ...... I can't shed a single tear for my brother, he's gone, and I can't even get his soul back......"

"Therefore, you should open your eyes and see clearly, your revenge with your sister must be avenged, but you can't spare the brother who really hurt you because of this, if you still want to get your brother back."

I paused, then quickly pulled down Qiu Shishi's hand and looked at him expectantly: "You, what do you mean, I can still get my brother back?" ”

The poet Qiu's eyes were deep, and he looked at me quietly for a while, touching my head.

Although he didn't say anything more, he has never been a man of false promises, and he will not lie to me in order to coax me, since he said it, it means that there is such a possibility.

I finally cheered up, people are most afraid of losing hope, and once a glimmer of light is found in the depths of despair, then there is nothing that cannot be done.

Taking a deep breath, I said: "The remaining two dolls, one of them is indeed from our room, if what Yin Yan said is correct, there are two more people, just four of us, the dolls are all girls, the ones who died in front are Mei Li and Zhang Ying, me, my brother, my brother and Yan Bin are in the same room, there are no girls, so," I took a breath again, "My brother was tricked, but in our two rooms, there were two girls, me and Ban Zhi, but I was more worried about ......"

I looked up at the poet again: "I'm already a ghost, is it possible that the murderer will attack you?" ”

"Don't worry about me."

How can you not worry, even if you know that he is extremely strong, but the secret arrow is difficult to prevent, and the murderer uses all the tricks, in case he really gets hit...... Phew, no, no.

Qiu Shishi hooked his lips and smiled: "To paraphrase what you said before, I hope he can find me, and if my calculation is correct, he will find me." ”

"What?!"

I was so shocked that I almost jumped up, grabbed Qiu Shishi's hand tightly, and opened my mouth a few times before I said, "Are you serious? ”

Although I was so worried, I couldn't sit still at all.

My brother has already had an accident, and I can't bear to hate the poet......

"Don't worry, I said it, keep your eyes open and look carefully!"

……

Everyone was in the living room, silently next to each other, Yan Bin still had a little ability to resist pressure, three people died, including his best friend, he could still cheer up and find a way to take everyone away, and even went to the cliff to observe carefully, and then visited the whole villa, focusing on the tool room, trying to find out what could let us cross the cliff.

He tried several things, none of which worked well.

I haven't eaten all the time, and at first everyone has no appetite, but after all, they are still people, and by two or three o'clock in the afternoon, they are gradually hungry.

The good housekeeper asked Xiaoqiu Xiaodong to make food, the dead are already dead, and the living have to find a way to live, after everyone barely finished the meal, he was very embarrassed to tell everyone that there was not much left to eat.

"Originally, your mission here was to experience a life similar to camping, in addition to staying here at night, you have to prepare all the food, Xiaoqiu Xiaodong and I only kept the amount of these few days, you didn't bring much yesterday, last night plus today's food, you can still have a meal at night, but tomorrow's will be ...... By the way, there is also drinking water, I told you that there was no water before, but today I don't know what's going on, the water in the faucet doesn't come out of the water! ”

Yan Bin rubbed his temples with a headache: "Water, we can go to the stream to fight, the water source here is clean, we also drank the water there yesterday, just use the purifier to disinfect, as for the food, we can also go to fight, there are fish in the stream, wild vegetables and fruits in the forest, if you are lucky, you can catch one or two pheasants and hares, five or six days, you can still survive, I'm afraid of ......."

He looked outside, it was already afternoon, and the fog outside hadn't dispersed much at all.

Originally, the murderer would have been unaware of them, and they had to go to the forest to find food in this environment, but they were afraid that it would be even more difficult to guard against them.

"It's okay," I stood up, stubbornly holding my chin, trying to disguise my vulnerability with strength, and said under Yan Bin's worried eyes, "The next thing to happen is it me and Ban Zhi, it's easier to have a goal, just keep me and her in jail." ”

As I spoke, I glanced at Ban Zhi lightly, and her expression was calm.

Yan Bin frowned, he knew that I had died a long time ago, and when he heard my words, he was surprised: "But you ......"

I looked back into his eyes: "Brother Yan Bin, you know what I mean, right?" ”

Yan Bin looked at me silently for a moment, and sighed imperceptibly: "Okay, listen to you, then let's set off now, the fog is thin now, I estimate that it will be dark in a while, and the fog will be thicker." ”

Finding food is certainly not a matter of one person, and no one dares to stay alone or go out alone, but after deliberation, it is decided to go out together.

Back to the stream, yesterday's happiness is still vivid, and today again, but there are three people who are permanently asleep, who are not in a good mood, especially doing similar things as yesterday, fishing, picking fruits, picking wild vegetables and chestnuts, and even making traps to catch hares, Xu Yingjun shook his head, and was actually scratched by a hare, but he looked at the blood marks on the back of his hand, and stood in place so blankly, the rabbit ran away and didn't know, or Yin Yan, who was with him, woke him up, and helped him deal with the wound, Sighing and cheering him up.

Just when everyone was numbly doing what they had done yesterday, the Qiu poet was gone!

When someone shouted "Mr. Qiu", Yan Bin ran to me as soon as possible, I stood still for a while, and immediately followed everyone around the neighborhood, but I didn't find anyone else.

It was as if I had fallen into an ice cellar, and I shivered with cold.

Yan Bin said in my ear over and over again: "Captain Qiu is different from the class halberd, he is so powerful, he will be fine, he will be fine, Xiaolan, don't be afraid, don't be afraid." ”

Yin Yan came to my side and didn't say anything, just looked at me beside me, for fear that I would do something impulsive.

I had always been afraid of him coming close to me, but this time I didn't react at all, I couldn't feel anything from the outside world.

Xu Yingjun muttered a little nervously: "I basically relied on Mr. Qiu to find Mei Li and Xiaoying before, but now that Mr. Qiu is gone, will we not be able to find him?" ”

"What nonsense are you talking about." Xu Guanyang's nerves were also very tight, after the death of the panhalberd, he cried a lot, desperately shouting that he didn't want to die, if it wasn't for Yan Bin to train him well, he estimated that he wouldn't be able to stand up, affected by Xu Yingjun, he was also a little trembling, and yelled at him, "Qiu, Mr. Qiu is so powerful, if even he ...... That we, that we ......"

"Shut up!" Yan Bin hated them and reprimanded them.

I closed my eyes, I had long lost the need for liquids, I only felt that my mouth was thirsty, and when I opened my eyes again, I said fiercely: "Keep looking, even if it's ...... corpse, I'm going to find him too! ”

Yan Bin wanted to say something, but in the end he only patted me on the back and accompanied me to look for it, but in the end, Xu Guanyang, who was not quite in the right mood, accidentally fell into the stream and yelled, and everyone gathered around to see it-

The place where Xu Guanyang fell is relatively far away, above the stream are the branches and leaves of a few trees next to it, almost covering the shadow of the stream, and at the same time, there are dense aquatic plants growing in that place, when looking for it, there will be visual blind spots, if Xu Guanyang didn't fall over there, we estimate that it will be easy to find.

Yan Bin and Yin Yan together picked up the aquatic plants first, and the clear water clearly placed the people under the water in everyone's eyes.

The beautiful princesses floated in the water, and there was an indescribable sense of bewitching beauty, and the Qiu poet was quietly immersed in the water, like a perfect sculpture, so unreal.

Until he was fished out of the case, lying quietly by the stream, his skirt wet and sticking to his body, and soon formed a stream of water under him, which merged into the stream again.

I stood quietly without any movement, completely dumbfounded, Yan Bin and Yin Yan shouted at me anxiously a few times but I didn't respond, and in the end, I didn't know how I was taken back to the villa.

I opened my eyes and saw that Qiu Shishi was placed next to my brother, and the four corpses were neatly placed, and it was a terrifying thing everywhere, Xu Guanyang didn't dare to step into this room, but I stood here in a daze, tilting my head, looking at them.

"Banlan? Banlan? ”

Someone was calling me, cautiously as if he was afraid of irritating me, and put his hands carefully on my shoulders: "Banlan, everything will pass, it will pass." ”

Will it all pass?

No, you can't get by, you can't get by!

Sullen in my heart, sullen in my heart...... Like something, growing, sprouting......

I suddenly turned around and walked out of the room where the body was kept, and stood in the living room, staring at the only remaining doll.

After a long time, I walked over, picked it up, and looked at it with its big eyes, and after looking at it for a long time, I seemed to be able to see a trace of waves in those soulless eyes.

"Who do you want to kill next?" I asked the doll softly.

I think I must be looking very weird now, like a crazy neurotic woman, Xu Guanyang looked at me with this meaning in his eyes, surprised, scared and worried.

Yan Bin also carefully grabbed my arm: "Xiaolan, you, do you want to drink some hot water?" There's nothing nice about this doll, so sit down first, huh? ”

He wanted to pull me to the sofa and sit down, and tried to pull the doll away from my hand, but I pulled it very tightly, unless he pulled me hard, otherwise he couldn't take the doll away with his current tentative strength, he had a headache: "Xiaolan, are you obedient?" ”

I looked up, expressionless and sure to look at him seriously: "Brother Yan Bin, don't disturb me, I want to ask clearly, who else does he want to kill!" ”

"Don't be like this, before the hatred...... Didn't you say that there is no problem with the doll, someone must be taking the doll out and pretending to be a ghost, let's put the doll down. ”

"Don't let it go!" When Yan Bin was about to take the doll away, I snatched it again, and then held it high, the light in the villa was still on, and the doll held high was facing the lamp, like a layer of golden sand.

I sighed appreciatively, "This doll is so well done, so delicate and cute, and it can do so much." ”

"Banlan!" Yan Bin called me by name and surname, for fear that I would really be so crazy.

But I know, I'm not crazy, I'm really sighing that the craftsmanship of the person who made this doll is really good.

At this moment, the good housekeeper came out of the kitchen and looked at everyone nervously: "I asked Xiaoqiu Xiaodong to prepare dinner for everyone, let's come and eat some, at a critical time, you should take care of your body." ”

I finally moved my gaze from the doll's body to the good housekeeper, and slowly lowered my raised hand, but I didn't put down the doll as Yan Bin and them wished, but just took the doll and walked towards the good housekeeper.

The good housekeeper looked at me who walked up to him inexplicably: "Miss Ban, is there something wrong with you?" Although I am useless and can't help you much, I will do my best if I can do it. ”

"Really?" I whispered, the voice nervous to me, and then I laughed, the pain in my chest making it almost impossible to stop the rush that wanted to erupt, and I held the doll up to him, "Then you can help me dismantle this doll, okay?" ”

"How can this ...... be demolished?" the good steward said. I don't know much about this. ”

He said as he took the doll to check it, as if he really wanted to help me, but when he was about to touch the doll, I moved the doll away, and I smiled and said, "It's really embarrassing for you, after all, this doll was not made by you, or let the doll come out?" ”

The good housekeeper asked puzzledly, "Do you make dolls?" This doll was made before and put here, if it is normal, you want to see him, I can contact the company to see if I can find that person, but now in this situation, I can't find someone for you. ”

"No, you can."

When the good housekeeper and the others were inexplicable, without warning, I lifted the doll and smashed it on the good housekeeper's head, and everyone was startled by me, including the good housekeeper himself.

This doll is a high-end product, it is not light to hold in your hand, if you smash it, you will lose a layer of skin if you don't smash it to death, the good housekeeper's eyes are wide open, and the pupil has a tendency to become a vertical pupil, when the doll is about to touch his head-

"Bang!" One hand, blocking the raising doll.

The movement is fast and powerful, and the strength of my current skill is not small, and ordinary men can't resist it, but this hand blocked it.

Moreover, it is no one else who stands in my way, it is the good steward himself.

But at this moment, the aura on the good housekeeper's body has all changed, and his appearance is still the same, but his eyes are different, and the black qi on his body soars instantly, gloomy and cold.

Seeing him like this, I smiled coldly: "Director Shan, long time no see." ”

"It's not like I haven't seen you for a long time, and it has always been a regret in my heart that I couldn't cook you in the first place." The good housekeeper, that is, Director Shan who hurt Wu Xiaokui and framed Zhang Xiaofang in the first place, he smiled ruefully and twisted his head.

The others stared at Director Shan in surprise, and Yan Bin rushed over to pull me behind him, and said to Director Shan vigilantly: "What's the matter?" ”

"You told me at the beginning," I stood behind Yan Bin, staring at him fearlessly, "I never guessed why you wanted to attack Wu Xiaokui, but now I do." ”

"It's a little earlier than I thought."

I sneered: "Wu Xiaokui's real senior brother naturally won't attack her, but she doesn't know that her senior brother has a dual personality, and even her senior brother herself doesn't know the existence of a second personality." ”

The real Director Shan is indeed a doctor with excellent medical skills and a righteous heart, so there is no problem with the black qi on his body, the existence of the black qi reflects the soul, not the body, the second personality, to some extent, it can be regarded as a soul split into two, right?

"After being caught in an accident and escaping, you and the people behind you will wash away the memory of your master's personality, and then give him a new memory, so that he thinks that he is the housekeeper of this villa, and on the surface, there is still no problem." They don't necessarily know that I can see the black qi, but they must know that I or the enemy poet can sense the good and evil of the soul, so they come to play this game with us.

The truly vicious soul, hiding behind the good soul, thinks that it will not be found out?

"But you still see the problem, don't you?" The good housekeeper said without a hint of weakness.

"When you do it to the dead, you're doomed to be exposed." At the mention of this, my previous calm was like a thin layer of brittle ice, which collapsed and was followed by boiling magma.

His nails pinched his palms, and his index finger pointed to Director Shan's clothes: "My dead man has already smeared the evidence on you." ”

Director Shan lifted the hem of his clothes, and sure enough, there was a stain of blood in it, not much, about the size of two fingernails, I said: "I may not recognize the blood of others, but the blood of the dead in my family, no matter how far away, I can smell it." ”

The mysterious water, which has to be drunk every two days, contains the blood of the enemy poet, even if you don't know it at first, you can sense it later.

"Oh?" Director Shan's eyes flickered, and his originally gentle face became evil, Xiaoqiu Xiaodong was originally the closest to him, after all, we are guests, they are both "service staff", colleagues, and now they are also frightened by his appearance and hugged each other and stepped back.

He slowly unbuttoned his suit jacket, took off his coat and threw it aside, and then, he twisted his arms and shoulders: "Now you know, I did it, what can you do, kill me, and avenge them?" ”

The fog outside became thicker and thicker as it got dark, and even slowly penetrated through the cracks in the windows and doors, and before long, the room began to be enveloped in fog, and no matter how many lights were turned on, they could not penetrate it.

Director Shan's voice became ethereal in the mist, and you could vaguely see him standing in front of you, but the voice seemed to float from all directions: "The hot pot was a bit too monotonous before, and now there are so many 'foods' to fill, this time the taste will definitely be very good." ”
