Chapter XXXVII
On the first night after the first exam, around two o'clock in the morning, a female candidate yawned and got up from her bed, rubbing her eyes and turning on the light in her room. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info anyway, her roommate has been eliminated, but no one protested.
The female examinee opened the door, put on her slippers, and walked all the way to the toilet with a kick.
On the airship, there is no separate bathroom in the room in the normal accommodation area. The ground floor is divided into fifteen hundred rooms, which are divided into blocks by a network of horizontal and vertical corridors, except for two rows of rooms by the windows on either side, and the middle is usually two rows of twenty in groups, one sharing a bathroom.
The benefit is that there are fewer lines and there are enough cubicles in the bathroom to create little to no congestion.
The female examinee rubbed her eyes and pulled into the first compartment behind the door, and when she found someone, she complained: "There are still people who go to the toilet in the middle of the night......" and then opened the second cubicle, went in and took off her pants and sat on the toilet to make it easier.
At this time, she faintly heard the sound of snoring and leaking air from the silver moon in the first compartment next door, and then the door opened, and then it was slammed shut, and there was no sound of flushing or washing hands......
"It's really unhygienic...... the female examinee snorted coldly, she didn't care, she was done, she flushed the toilet, washed her hands, and planned to go back to sleep.
But as she passed by the first compartment, she heard the sound of ticking water inside......
Leaking? The female examinee paused for a moment: "No wonder it didn't flush, could it be that the toilet was broken?" ”
Naturally, there are staff to take care of this kind of thing, and she was about to leave when she suddenly felt that something was wrong...... The sound of the water sounded a little sticky, and it seemed to smell something strange......
Not the usual smell of toilets, of course, but something more familiar and more sobering!
The female candidate's eyes widened: "No......" She secretly prepared the ability, and was bold, if there was any danger, it was a big deal to use the ability to save herself immediately! Reassuring herself, she pushed open the door to the compartment......
What caught my eye was a female corpse sitting on the toilet! His short hair was messy, his throat was slit, and blood gushed out, staining his whole body, dripping down his fingertips and falling to the ground, making a ticking sound......,
Even if it was a candidate with special abilities, when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but be shocked, and a chill rushed to the top of his head......
"Someone's coming!" The female examinee rushed out of the toilet and shouted in the hallway: "Someone has been killed!" ”
………………
Soon, the staff took control of the scene, and the sleeping candidates also woke up, hearing that someone had been killed, and many people gathered in front of the toilet where the accident occurred, and kept looking inside.
Soon, a tall, bearded man came out of the toilet. The candidates all knew him, he was the head of the security of this exam, the leader of the third detachment of the Heavenly Dao Guard, Wei Mingqi.
"The deceased was a second-level agent of the association, named Li Jing, twenty-three years old this year, the cause of death was a throat cut with a sharp object, the time of death was not long, it should have been within an hour...... I'm sorry, candidates, what should have been a relaxing and enjoyable journey was disturbed by such a bloody incident, this is the dereliction of duty of our Heavenly Dao Guards......" As he spoke, Wei Mingqi also bowed to the many candidates.
"So, who is the murderer? Got eyebrows? One candidate asked.
"Not ...... yet" Wei Mingqi shook his head: "What is certain is that the murderer must still be hiding on the boat, and it is still uncertain about the murderer's motive for killing, and the possibility that he will continue to commit the crime cannot be ruled out!" Please be vigilant......"
At this time, another Heavenly Dao guard ran over and whispered a few times in Wei Mingqi's ear, Wei Mingqi's face changed greatly: "What? There are new dead? With that, he pushed away the crowd and left.
The candidates looked at each other, and in curiosity, they all followed.
The two newly discovered deceased were both candidates, one of whom was a candidate from the Hope Continent, named Thomas, who was found dead in his room, and the cause of death was a sharp object through the heart; Another candidate, named Lisu, from the tropical archipelago, was found dead in a swimming pool on the top floor and drowned......
These three deceased, from different countries and continents, did not have any intersection with each other, but they died in the same night and in different places!
If the murderers are the same group, then the possibility of vendetta is basically ruled out...... For money? More unlikely! The only thing that makes sense is that the candidates exclude dissent, but is this kind of thing not good in the examination room? It is strictly forbidden to attack each other on the airship, and to do so is tantamount to provoking the entire Association of Strangers! What's more, among the deceased, there are not only candidates, but also an agent of the association!
Of course, it is also possible that three different murderers happened to kill three people on the same night for different reasons. But the chances of such a coincidence are as slim as winning the lottery.
What the hell is going on?
Soon, all the candidates were notified to assemble in the auditorium.
After all the candidates arrived, Christian and Wei Mingqi were there, and the two briefly talked about the murder and the current analysis, which sounded the alarm for the candidates.
"At present, the most likely speculation is that the murderer is attacking indiscriminately...... Wei Mingqi stood up: "As for the motive, it is suspected that a certain candidate was stimulated in the first exam, and his ability was mutated, affecting his mental ......"
Ability mutation, affecting the mind? Doesn't that mean...... The candidates were discussing, and Wei Mingqi clapped his hands and said: "Yes, so to speak, there is probably a xenomorph hidden on this airship now!" ”
Human xenomorphs! Because of the stimulation that leads to the mutation of abnormal abilities, which leads to distortion of thoughts and personality, and the behavior is crazy and dangerous...... If they fight head-on, the human xenomorphs have no advantage over other xenomorphs of the same level, but if they are hidden, they will be extremely dangerous!
Although they are crazy, their intelligence has not declined, and the education and experience they have accumulated will be used to kill and destroy. Such dangerous elements are hidden in human society, and the harm is unimaginable!
Now, on this airship of more than 1,000 people, there is such a human xenomorph hidden? No, maybe more than one!
The candidates were in a commotion, Wei Mingqi raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and said loudly: "Now, we have two plans to deal with the current situation!" As he spoke, he stretched out a finger: "First, it is to immediately notify the headquarters that the airship will change its course and fly back to the different capitals, and each candidate will be strictly checked." There are many masters in the headquarters, and it will definitely make the xenos have nothing to hide! ”
