Chapter 16: The Murderer

Charlotte saw Liu Yuxi stunned under the table, there was no other movement for a long time, a smile on the corner of her mouth was fleeting, and then she pretended to ask, "What's the matter, Mr. Liu Yuxi, does it take so long to pick up a watch?" Could it be that there is some damage to my watch? Need I help you take a look? ā€

The moment he heard this sentence, Liu Yuxi, who was still lying under the table, had a hint of panic on his face, he pinched the watch he had already gotten in his hand, afraid that Charlotte would really lower her head and see the pale green fluorescence on her shoes, at that time, it was really, even if it was explained, no one believed it.

While quickly sitting upright, he said, "Oh, it's not broken, it's not broken, I just think Team Leader Xia's watch is very good, so I couldn't help but admire it for a while below." ā€

As he spoke, Liu Yuxi had already sat back in his original appearance and handed the watch to Charlotte.

"Oh? Is that so? I have been following me for many years, and it is one of my most precious things, and if Mr. Liu Yuxi really likes it, it doesn't matter if he lends it to you for a few days. Charlotte said with a smiling expression.

"Then forget it, a gentleman doesn't win people's love." Of course, Liu Yuxi heard that this was Charlotte talking to him politely, and the words of the people were all laid out, even if they borrowed, they could only borrow it for a few days, which is equivalent to saying that after you negotiate with others, they will lend you a chicken leg, but you can only borrow it for a few days at most, and after the time, it must be the original, and you can't exchange it back for others without the slightest loss.

You can see but you can't eat it, just thinking about it, you know what a thing this is, a fragrant and smooth roasted oily chicken leg is placed in front of your eyes, but you can only look at it at most, and you have to return it to others in a few days.

And although the watch in Charlotte's hand is valuable, in addition to the material of the watch itself, in Liu Yuxi's opinion, there is nothing special, it is all watches, but the material has been changed, and no matter how valuable the watch is, its value when used is just a moment when looking at the time or showing off to others.

Liu Yuxi specially borrowed a watch...... You can't just watch the time when you're fine, right?

And the passage of time is not meaningful to the four seasons in the Xenodimensional Library, where day and night cannot be seen, and here, the only use of time by human beings is at best to calculate their own task time.

Anyway, the canteen provides food 24 hours a day, and the door of the dormitory on the second floor can be opened at any time.

"And I heard that Team Leader Xia has always been very precious about this watch, I'm afraid that it will be broken, Team Leader Xia killed me, so forget it." Liu Yuxi's words sound like a joke, but as a fact...... Actually, it's not an exaggeration.

In Liu Yuxi's memory, he clearly remembers that there was a time when Yi Lingqi felt that the watch in Charlotte's hand was very good, so he wanted to touch it, but the hand had just touched, Charlotte was very angry and almost beat Yi Lingqi, so since then, the story of Charlotte and his most precious watch has become the main actor's after-dinner conversation in the third library.

Even some people who have only recently entered the Xenotropic Library, under the guidance of the veterans, will probably know a little about the legend of Charlotte and the watch.

So sure enough, the watch is really broken in Liu Yuxi's place, and with the psychological position of this thing in Charlotte's heart, I don't know how much chaos will appear below.

"Haha, it's serious, it's serious, in your hearts, am I so stingy?" Charlotte touched her nose and said with some embarrassment.

"Just kidding, Team Leader Xia naturally won't be so stingy, and the joke doesn't have to be taken seriously."

"Let's get down to business, business matters, private matters, then I won't joke about it, and the greeting will be here, Mr. Liu Yuxi is ready?"

Liu Yuxi twisted his clothes that were stuck to his body by the water and felt very uncomfortable, and made a gesture of please.

"Then I'll ask, the first question, where did Mr. Liu Yuxi go after the dinner yesterday?"

"At night...... Because I was very unwell, I left halfway through dinner, and I remember that I also specially told Team Leader Xia at that time, and Charlotte also kept me, but because I was really unwell at that time, I refused. ā€

"I have an impression of this." Charlotte nodded in agreement, "What about after that?" Did you do anything when you went back to your room? Or can anyone prove what you're saying? ā€

"When I get back to my room...... I don't think so, I remember I went to bed early. Liu Yuxi looked thoughtful, made it the same as the real thing, and then ...... He suddenly looked like he suddenly realized, "Oh, by the way, I also went to the cafeteria to drink a cup of hot water, and I also met Wang Fugui once!"

"Wang Fugui? Have you met him? What's going on? Why didn't you tell me before? Charlotte frowned slightly, and there was a hint of doubt in her eyes.

"Don't get me wrong, Charlotte." Liu Yuxi hurriedly explained, "I just happened to want to drink a cup of hot water, you know, there is no such thing as water in our room, if you want to drink, you have to go down and get it yourself, I happened to be thirsty at that time, so I went down, but I ran into Wang Fugui who was eating supper, the reason why I didn't say it before was because I was afraid that others would frame me out of nothing, and when the time comes, this kind of thing will be troublesome if you can't explain it clearly." ā€

"And what I'm saying now is that I also make up for it? Team Leader Xia must believe me, if I were the murderer, I wouldn't have spoken out about it. ā€

"That's not necessarily, in many of the movies I've watched, the murderer deliberately exposes himself, what's this called, huh? Oh yes, the most dangerous place is the safest place, right? At this time, Ye Kagura, who had been standing behind, suddenly interjected.

This is also the result of their discussion in advance, one is responsible for singing red face, and the other is responsible for singing black face.

Liu Yuxi turned his head, glanced at Ye Shenle with a look of surprise, and then said as if complaining, "Oh, Brother Ye, don't you hurt me like this, we can be regarded as acquaintances anyway, don't you know what kind of person I am?" Besides, a movie is a movie...... Reality is reality, can it be the same? I tell you, you can't wronged me, I did see Wang Fugui alone at night, but it was really a coincidence......"

"Alright, alright, no one doubts you." Charlotte said impatiently, "We just think about all the possibilities to ensure that the real murderer does not go unpunished, assuming that what you say is true, then you are very likely to be the last person to see Wang Fugui himself in addition to the murderer, and Wang Fugui is also very likely to have a chance to give Wang Fugui a chance to take advantage of it when he had supper at night, and finally caused this tragedy." ā€

While analyzing, Charlotte carefully observed the expression on Liu Yuxi's face, wanting to see something, "Then when you met Wang Fugui, did he tell him anything, or did anything special happen?" This is important and may be directly related to whether the identity of the murderer can be identified. ā€

"What happened...... I want to think about it...... Actually, there's nothing special, it's just a very ordinary conversation. Liu Yuxi thought, "It's just a hello, and then I asked him what he was doing so late, and he replied that I had supper, and then I didn't speak, and after I drank hot water, I went back." ā€

"Oh yes, one more thing......"

"What's the matter?"

"When I walked over, Wang Fugui once stepped on one of my shoes, but in fact, this is not a special thing." Liu Yuxi said very seriously, "It's just that I think some details may be related to Team Leader Xia's judgment of the murderer, isn't there such an old saying?" The devil is in the details!"

ps: The results seem to be a bit miserable, but as long as I don't have an accident, the possibility of TJ is still very small, I should also think about it, the reason for success or failure, with this festival always feels a little sad, in addition, I wish you all...... Happy Peace Day.
