Chapter 17: The Beginning of the Conspiracy
The death that Xu Tian experienced in a trance is the first chapter of the story, this kind of murder scene where you know who the murderer is from the beginning, how can you continue to read?
However, there are also some suspense that the murderer was known from the beginning, and Xu Tian continued to read with this mentality.
At the beginning of the second chapter, there were many people outside Commander Fang's house, today was the day of Commander Fang's funeral, and the hatred of the residents of the island for Commander Fang was in full swing, and the villagers of the five villages all came forward to prevent Commander Fang's coffin from entering Caogang Village.
When Commander Fang's wife opened the coffin to show the villagers the corpses inside, the villagers consciously dispersed.
The commander in the coffin became Mr. Xu, and no one on this island cared about how Mr. Xu died in the coffin, even if Mr. Xu was a stranger to the villagers, no villager asked.
When Mr. Xu's coffin was carried out of Commander Fang's residence, the villagers rushed to Commander Fang's house, and in less than a stick of incense, all the belongings in Commander Fang's house were half emptied and the house was burned.
But when the story happened here, Xu Tian couldn't help but have a question, where did Commander Fang's body go?
The two women replaced Commander Fang's body with Mr. Xu's, and they carried the coffin out of Commander Fang's residence.
There are so many loopholes in this story that it is not written who carried the coffin away, is it really two women? One of the women was seriously ill in bed, and they should not have the strength to carry the coffin.
Xu Tian continued to look down, and the scene later in this chapter jumped directly to the time when Mr. Xu was buried.
With the help of the fisherman, the two women buried Mr. Xu in Commander Fang's grave, and at this time, Commander Fang's body was still not mentioned, and this boring story really made Xu Tian not interested in reading.
Looking at the time, it was only 5:15 in the evening, but it was already completely dark outside, Xu Tian got out of bed, took a cup on the desk, and walked to the water dispenser to get a glass of water.
At this time, there were footsteps outside, and it was Yang Qi who was walking towards Xu Tian's room with dinner.
"Let's just eat some!" Yang Qi said politely.
"Isn't there a missing page in this book? How do I find the story very incoherent. Xu Tian said.
"That's because the author of this book is not a professional writer, and we have studied some of the things mentioned in the story for a long time." Yang Qi said.
"Oh well! By the way, I heard Xiao Ai say just now that she will come back after ten o'clock in the evening? I still want to talk to her about something, if you see Xiao Ai, can you let her come to my room. Xu Tian said.
"No problem, you keep reading! You can rest for a while when you are tired, it is very safe here, and no strangers will break into your room, but you should also pay attention, if you remember the fire alarm, it means that our location is exposed, and then you can run to the fire escape. Yang Qi said.
"I see." Xu Tian said, briefly ate dinner, and continued to lean on the cotton cushion at the head of the bed and flipped up the blue book.
Unconsciously, Xu Tian really felt a little tired, this tiredness made Xu Tian not interested in the story at all, and now Xu Tian just wanted to lie down and sleep well.
Xu Tian suddenly became alert, there wouldn't be sleeping pills in the meal just now, right? If so, doesn't that mean that Yang Qi has malicious intentions towards himself?
Xu Tian couldn't even pick up the blue book, so he fell asleep directly on the bed.
……
At this time, downstairs in the orphanage, a stranger was sitting on the sofa waiting for someone.
This stranger's face was full of vicissitudes, he was very tall, middle-aged, and this middle-aged man was the one who stuffed Xu Tian's small black box in the abandoned building on the island.
"Did you show him?" The man asked.
"Don't worry! He wouldn't see it, and we stopped it in time. Yang Qi walked over with dinner and said.
"Are you sure he hasn't seen the contents of the box?" The man said with a worried look.
"If I answer your question, don't repeat it, it's pointless." Yang Qi said.
"I'm not worried because if he sees what's inside, it will cause unnecessary trouble." The man said.
"You've already escaped, what's the trouble not to bother? Now you should be worried about your own safety, it's all this time, do you still care what others think? Yang Qi said.
"I don't want to care, but can you give me a chance?" The man said in a panic.
"Your opportunities are all given by yourself, and you have another important task next, the case on the beach you did was very unclean, if it wasn't for our people who stopped them from investigating the case in time, you would have been exposed." Yang Qi said.
"Time is too tight, and the thief who was imprisoned by the old horse is on the verge of death, and I hung the thief alone." The man said.
"What's the thief's eyes? Why is such important information exposed? Yang Qi said.
"The boss was standing over there at the time, and the thief was probably scared by him." The man said.
"What do you say? The Boss is back? Yang Qi looked shocked.
"At that time, the boss stood on the beach and watched me commit a crime, not only the thief I killed, but even I was terrified, and his eyes were enough for me to lose sleep for three days." The man said with a shudder.
"Who else knows about this? Are you sure there was no one around? Yang Qi said.
"I ......" The man just wanted to say that he could be sure that there was no one around at that time, but at this time, Yang Qi's eyes had already said all the words in his heart, and the man stopped talking. I'm not sure. ”
"Is that so?" Yang Qi's heart still hasn't let go.
"I felt like there was someone at the front door, but it looked like someone was walking upstairs, and it was probably the illusion that I was too nervous." The man said in alarm.
"Alright, get out of here, what are you going to do next, I don't have to repeat it, right?" Yang Qi said with a calm face.
"I ...... I knew what I was supposed to do, and here I go! The man got up and walked out of the room.
After the man left, Yang Qi sat on the sofa very calmly, the man's reflection just now made Yang Qi feel very wrong, Yang Qi had already touched the gun in his pocket, but the man said that there might be others who saw him commit the crime at that time, so Yang Qi did not take out the gun.
Just when Yang Qi stood up and was about to go out to chase the man, when he turned around, Yang Qi happened to see Xu Tian standing on the stairs.
