Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Crystal Nucleus Disappears, Who Has a Different Heart
Xia Mi shook his head slightly: "Where did he find the second-level zombie?" ”
"The archive where you were attacked yesterday!"
Xia Mi's pupils shrank, and the hand under the cover of the table clenched for a moment.
It was so coincidental that she had to doubt it. Yesterday she was injured, Bai Jiang happened to appear in front of her to heal her, and then the two stayed together, and he had sufficient evidence to prove that he had not seen the second-level zombie who fell from the building.
But now the place where the second-level zombies are staying is the laboratory where Xia Mi was injured yesterday, everything seems to have nothing to do with Bai Jiang, but it points the finger at him. It seems that someone deliberately guided her, the purpose is to make her suspicious of Bai Jiang.
Is there anything else possible? What if Bai Jiang did it on purpose? Or did Bai Jiang and Tang Jin join forces? Xia Mi's brows furrowed slightly.
Whether it is someone behind the scenes who designed Bai Jiang and wanted Xia Mi to suspect him, or Bai Jiang directed and acted in this play, both of these situations are likely to occur and need to be verified by Xia Mi. If she goes down rashly at this moment, she will only let Bai Jiang know that she is spying on him, but she will startle the snake. All she could do was wait.
Sitting on the chair in the dean's room, Xia Mi closed his eyes slightly, his fingers rubbing on the armrest, but his mind was sorting out what had happened recently.
"Xia Mi."
Xia Mi paused and opened his eyes.
Bai Jiang was standing at the door looking at her, because against the light, Xia Mi couldn't see the look on his face clearly, "What's wrong?" ”
"In the archives on the fifteenth floor, there is one more zombie."
Noticing his description, Xia Mi narrowed his eyes imperceptibly. The corpses of several zombies she killed outside the archives on the fifteenth floor yesterday had not been cleaned up, and Bai Jiang said that there was one more, obviously comparing it with yesterday.
Details often show the truth of what a person says and does, and if Bai Jiang is deliberate, it can only be said that he is so thoughtful that it is outrageous.
The doubts in her heart were even heavier, but she still maintained a cold expression on her face: "Let's go!" Check it out! ”
When the two of them arrived on the fifteenth floor, they happened to meet Tang Jin, who came to look for someone, Xia Mi's eyes flashed, and he glanced at him before continuing to walk towards the archive room.
A fishy smell rushed into the noses of several people, and after looking at the zombies on the ground, Xia Mi was keenly aware that the corpses of the zombies had been moved. She remembered clearly that the zombie's head was tilted to the right, but it was now straightened, obviously someone had moved.
Pretending not to notice, she raised her eyes, and her gaze quickly skimmed over the door of the room next to the archive room, and sure enough, the two zombies in the room on the right had also been moved.
"Did Bai Jiang touch the zombies on the ground when he came?"
Danzi shook the hair on his body and shook his head.
Fingers brushed over the hilt of Crescent Moon, and Xia Mi walked into the archives.
The ground is still a mess, glass slag and wood chips are mixed together, like a demolition site. In the corner of the wall not far away, a second-level zombie in a white coat was half-leaning there with his head down.
Holding the meniscus knife in his hand tighter, Xia Mi walked towards the corner.
The closer you get, the clearer you see. Unlike the situation imagined by Xia Mi, the body of the second-level zombie has not changed much except for some more bloodstains. Pulling the crescent moon out, she lifted the head of the second-level zombie.
After seeing the appearance of the second-level zombie clearly, Xia Mi's pupils shrank.
The dumplings have already exploded: "Ahhhh What about crystal nuclei? ”
There was an extra hole in the head of the second-level zombie, and the crystal nucleus that should have existed had obviously been dug up.
Who is it?
Cypress ginger? Or Tang Jin, who he just met in the stairwell?
Once the doubts in my heart sprout, they are like weeds that grow in spring, and they can't be suppressed. A trace of killing intent quickly flashed in Xia Mi's eyes, but disappeared when he raised his eyes.
Bai Jiang and Tang Jin's faces were full of astonishment, and Tang Jin even took a step back slightly.
Xia Mi's gaze swept over Tang Jin and fell on Bai Jiang's body: "That's how it was when you came?" ”
Although she has been restraining her inner fluctuations, there is still a trace of murderous intent in her heart. The accounts of the previous life have not been cleared up, and now the current situation has appeared, if it is really him who dug up the zombie crystal nucleus, even if he has the healing ability, Xia Mi does not plan to keep him.
Tuanzi noticed the fluctuations in her heart for the first time, and began to chatter and teach. Xia Mi didn't listen to a word, and stared at Bai Jiang.
Under the crushing of her second-level ability, Bai Jiang's teeth began to tremble, but a pair of eyes were still firmly fixed on her.
"No...... No...... I. ”
The intermittent sound seemed to be the unbroken lotus silk, Bai Jiang's hand was tightly pinched in the palm of his hand, and a trace of fishy sweet blood escaped.
Xia Mi's mind suddenly cleared up, and her slightly reddened eyes returned to normal. Without further speaking, without looking at the two of them, she began to look around the environment of the archives, looking for any omissions.
There are so many glass shards and wood chips that you can't see the ground at a glance. Comparing the scene in his memory with the scene, Xia Mi realized that something was wrong for a while.
The most concentrated place of window glass fragments is in front of the window, and the other places near the window should be present although the number is small.
A small piece of the ground not far to the left of the zombie was empty, leaving only a few pieces of glass shard. Half-crouching down, Xia Mi got closer, and the white powder on the ground caught her eye. The powder is extremely fine, mixed with some fine glass slag that has not turned into ash.
Looking at the outline of that area, it should be the footprints of an adult man.
Twisting the powder on the ground and rubbing it with his fingertips, Xia Mi tapped the ground with a crescent moon, "Have you ever stood here?" ”
Tang Jin and Bai Jiang shook their heads in unison.
The missing crystal nucleus, the second-level zombie who inexplicably returned to the archives, is burdened with many suspicious but seemingly innocent people...... Xia Mi's eyebrows furrowed.
"Do you have anything else to discover?"
Bai Jiang shook his head, but Tang Jin nodded: "Downstairs, there is a sealed basement." ”
"The host Tang Jin is very suspicious, do you want to go and take a look?"
From the moment Tuanzi insisted that she take Bai Jiang out of City C, Xia Mi felt a trace of strangeness, and at this moment this strange feeling was deeper. Obviously, Bai Jiang was even more suspicious, but Tuanzi seemed to be biased against him, deliberately guiding her to suspect Tang Jin.
Quietly, she agreed: "Hmm." ”
Her eyes kept on Tang Jin's body, but Yu Guang kept paying attention to Tuanzi's every move. Sure enough, seeing her agree, a hint of joy appeared in Tuanzi's eyes.
Xia Mi clenched the meniscus knife in his hand slightly, "I don't know what is in the basement, I always have to defend myself, do you have any recommendations?" ”
Tuanzi was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment before hesitatingly replied, "Isn't the knife on your body quite easy to use, host?" ”
