Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Demon's Triple Mystery—Climax Six: Under Complete Lockdown
This time, not only Liang Yongxin, but even Luo Yifan was dumbfounded. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The bedroom had become a closed chamber, and the only two doors that could still be navigated were now empty, and the two of them felt like they were in a nightmare.
"Now... Now what? Liang Yongxin couldn't go on, and his words were replaced by choked voices.
Luo Yifan felt an unprecedented challenge, he felt that the nerves in his whole body were tense, and his hands trembled slightly.
But he tried to restrain himself, and said in his mouth: "Don't panic, there will definitely be a way!" ”。
But it is not possible to stay where you are and not act, no matter what, it is impossible to hide Jiang Xinglong in the bedroom and study, and it is impossible to get out. Now the only way is to go into the basement and find the way.
Luo Yifan moved to the corridor with Liang Yongxin, and after coming out, the two of them were preparing to continue to advance towards the storage room.
Suddenly, Liang Yongxin screamed violently, and suddenly hugged Luo Yifan's arm tightly.
It turned out that after arriving in the corridor, Liang Yongxin inadvertently glanced behind him and saw Fei Gu's bloody head stuck under the wooden fence gate.
It didn't matter if he looked at it, Liang Yongxin was completely frightened, his legs trembled so much that he couldn't even speak.
"Don't look!" Luo Yifan's tone became impatient, and he pinned Liang Yongxin's head with both hands, his movements were very rough, and he said irrefutably:
"We can't panic now! The murderer kills everyone with extreme cruelty just to panic the rest, so whatever you see, you have to be calm, hear it!! ”
Liang Yongxin was tightly pinched on his cheeks by his bloody hands, and the horror in his eyes was thick, but he still nodded.
Luo Yifan let go of Liang Yongxin's cheeks and said, "You wait here first, I'll go and move the things out of the storeroom." Don't look back at the corpse while you're waiting, you know? “
"Hmm...... Good. Liang Yong's heart responded, and the whole person unconsciously shrank into a ball.
He never dreamed that such a horrible thing would happen to the house he bought, and that this house might become his grave now!
Fear and helplessness filled Liang Yongxin's heart, and the only thing he could rely on now was Luo Yifan's wisdom.
Liang Yongxin leaned against the wall next to the door of the study, although his eyes were watching Luo Yifan's actions, but because he was afraid, he would always unconsciously glance into the study a few times, as if some monster would suddenly rush out and eat him in the study.
And Luo Yifan couldn't care about his hand injury at this time, so he quickly moved the old furniture in the storage room to the corridor like a large wooden block and piled it in the corner of the corridor.
At the same time, in order to prevent further accidents, Luo Yifan stopped from time to time to look at Liang Yongxin in the bedroom and in the back, and made sure that there was nothing unusual before continuing to move other things.
Soon, the entrance to the basement was revealed, it was a square opening in the floor, and there was a staircase diagonally down below, the staircase and the entrance were very narrow, Luo Yifan gestured, and it should be no problem to enter one person at a time.
Then, Luo Yifan returned to the corridor and prepared to take Liang Yongxin with him.
At this time, the position of the two people is exactly in front of the door of the study and the other in front of the bedroom door, and the scene in the study and bedroom can be seen at a glance.
It was at this time that the unexpected happened-
The two doors, which I thought were so well blocked, that they couldn't be closed anymore, made a 'click' sound at the same time.
The wooden fence door hidden in their outer doorframe suddenly fell, and the hard, heavy wood slammed against the small round table and thin planks underneath.
These two things could not withstand the 'attack' from the top down, and in an instant, sawdust and wood blocks flew everywhere.
And Liang Yongxin happened to stand in front of the door connecting the corridor of the study, and was the first to be the target of the sawdust block.
This scare is not light, Liang Yongxin "Ah! The earth screamed, and he fell to the ground with his head in his hands.
In the panic, his face happened to meet the face of Fei Gu's terrifying and weird corpse, Liang Yongxin was so frightened that he almost fainted, and the whole person sat up suddenly, his hands behind him kept moving back, and his originally beautiful big eyes were now open so that their sockets were about to crack.
Luo Yifan was also stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he immediately rushed over and picked Liang Yongxin up from the ground, hugged him tightly in his arms and retreated to the bedroom door.
Both of them were stunned and gasping for breath at this time.
There was no time to calm down, Luo Yifan looked at it, it didn't matter if he saw it, Luo Yifan almost didn't despair. He felt that this house had literally lit a fire in his brain, and it was going to burn all the marrow out of his brain!
Why?!
Because, now all the rooms on both sides of the corridor have become independent secret rooms except for the stairwell and storage room, and the only stairwell and storage room that is excluded is only the inner passage is still open, but the door facing Luo Yifan and Liang Yongxin is closed.
In other words, now Luo Yifan and Liang Yongxin have really become 'guinea pigs' in the cage, and there is no way out.
From Luo Yifan's point of view, the outer door of the study was sealed, and the inner door connecting the study in the bedroom was also sealed.
Moreover, the secret passage exit in the wall just now is located on the side of the study, so the door on the inside of the study is sealed, which means that when you come out of there now, you can only stay in the study, and you can't enter the bedroom or the corridor.
There is no need to look at the door of the storage room behind him, Luo Yifan knew by his voice that it was also sealed, and the door behind him seemed to have two door frames.
There is only one thing to be thankful for, if the hidden door of the storage room suddenly fell when Luo Yifan was carrying things just now, then he may be in the same place as Fei Gu now.
In such a situation, even Luo Yifan couldn't be calmer anymore, he let go of his hands holding Liang Yongxin, and ran to every door to shake vigorously, but the 'answer' given to him by every door was unbreakable and flawless.
If you ask Luo Yifan just now why he has been more or less in a state of calm thinking, it may be because there is still a breakthrough to find.
And now, Luo Yifan has been completely blinded, as if he doesn't even have his own body, because this time, he can't see any hope of breaking through.
The murderers have almost all their way out!
Luo Yifan, who stopped, gasped, and Liang Yongxin leaned on each other tightly, muttering and repeating in his mouth: "Don't panic... Don't panic... Don't panic......"
He no longer knew if he was comforting others or soothing himself.
At this time, Luo Yifan's heart was sinking little by little......
He has always believed in his own judgment, even if he is left alone, even if that person dies in front of him......
However, now that his self-confidence was shaken, Luo Yifan suddenly felt more frightened than ever.
Why...... Why are you so scared all of a sudden?! It was as if the murderer was behind his back, slashing at him with a knife, and he even seemed to see the murderer's hideous face......
In Luo Yifan's impression, that face does have the potential to become hideous and crazy.
He suddenly felt strongly that perhaps...... The person the murderer really wants to kill should ...... It's yourself?!!!
But what does the murderer have to do with himself?......
Holding Liang Yongxin's shoulders tightly, his hand no longer felt pain.
The two men stood in the bedroom doorway, as if something was pulling them, and their eyes looked into the bedroom again......
———
The man was pulled out of a hard opening, and his back hurt.
opened his mouth to call for help, but his mouth was immediately covered tightly by a pair of hands, so tight that he was almost suffocated.
There was no time to struggle, only to feel that two people were dragging him all the way out of the distance.
It really hurts to scratch the wound on your hand with both hands scratching at the turf and gravel mud.
Finally, the hand on his mouth was released, and the man turned his head violently, wanting to continue to shout for help, but was stunned by the scene in front of him.
"You... Is that you? ”
"Shhhhh The other party hurriedly made a silent gesture and motioned for him to be quiet.
It was only then that the man could see that he and his man were in a bush.
When did he get outside?
Keeping his voice to a minimum, the man asked, "How did you guys get out?" ”
"Don't ask about that yet, how did you hide there alone? What about the others? It's not all going to be dead, are they? ”
"Alone? Yes!! The man screamed and covered his mouth in an instant.
The people on the side were taken aback by him and immediately asked, "What's wrong?" ”
After two or three minutes, everyone panicked.
One of them said, "That's... So what now? Do you want to go back and save it? It's not hard for us to ......."
"I have to go back, I tell you, I already know ......"
The man's voice grew lower, and he was saying something that was on his mind.
"So, we must find a way to inform the people inside where the exit is, but at the same time we can't be discovered by the murderer."
"Well, we just saw—" said one of the short men, "-there he might be ......"
"What? It's him...... Impossible! He's always been with us! The man said.
"Now no matter what, we have to sum it up first, and it's best to find a way to notify him while he's still there."
"Yes, yes, you have a lot of ideas, think about it." The man on the side urged.
“……!”
Just as the man was about to continue, he suddenly heard a man's exclamation from inside the room, not loud, but enough to hear who it was.
"Yes, it's him! There he is! He's alive!! The man's voice suddenly rose an octave.
The shorter man quickly covered his mouth again, and said, "Shhh Hush! If you're found by the murderer now, you'll be all over! As he spoke, he pressed the man's body down hard.
At this moment, another person suddenly pounced on the two entangled people and pressed them to the ground at the same time.
"Someone!!" With just one sentence, everyone stopped.
Holding his breath, the six eyes looked in the direction that one of them had secretly pointed out......
A figure dressed in black, with a black hat covering almost the entire face, appeared in front of them, approaching the exit where the man had just been pulled out.
The shadow carried a long, almost body-sized object.
Approaching the exit, the black shadow opened the exit effortlessly with one hand, then jammed something in it, shoved it in, and pushed it in.
Several people seemed to be able to faintly hear the sound of the object falling to the ground, and finally the black shadow seemed to pull out something and quickly left with it, and the whole process did not make any sound except for the object landing.
When I looked closely, the entrance that had just been opened by the black shadow was gone, and there was hardly any flaw in it.
"The... Isn't it going to be another death!? Yes... Who will it be? The man next to the man was so nervous that he stammered.
"I don't know ......"
While they were talking, a man was cautiously approaching them in the woods behind them, as if he was holding something in his hand.
When he came closer, the man suddenly reached out his hand......
The woods and bushes in front of the house were quiet again, and only the afternoon wind blew through and caused ripples.

Inside the Bird's House
Luo Yifan and Liang Yongxin's eyes were attracted by the half-cut thing that appeared behind the double bed in the bedroom.
It was a sack with something in it, the top of which was tightly tied with a nylon rope, and Luo Yifan leaned forward and pressed his face against the middle of the grid of the wooden fence gate to look closely.
Liang Yongxin buried his head behind his back in horror, still shivering.
There was a moment of silence, as if many hours had passed.
Finally, Luo Yifan spoke: "Yongxin, when you came out just now, was there this thing behind the bed?" ”
When he asked like this, Liang Yongxin had to turn his face over to look at it no matter how scared he was, it was the upper part of a long sack, and it could be seen that the top of the contents was round.
There was a bad guess in his heart for a moment, but Liang Yongxin prayed that it was just his own imagination, and he replied in silence: "I don't know..."
In fact, Luo Yifan also had a guess, the exposed half-sack wrapped the objects inside tightly, and it looked like a ...... Doll.
Is there anyone who has died? Luo Yifan closed his eyes and silently prayed for the dead in his heart.
Luo Yifan has always thought that fragility does not belong to him, because he has always lived in his heart to rely on, but now that there is no reliance, he feels that it is really time to face it alone.
'In any case, you can't die until you take revenge!' No matter how many times I'm trapped, I have to find a breakthrough......
Determined, Luo Yifan forcibly suppressed fear and helplessness, opened his dry eyes, and looked at Liang Yongxin.
"Swimming, don't be afraid, we must have a way out! So you have to keep your composure, you know? ”
Hearing this, Liang Yongxin seemed to stop shaking for a moment, and he looked up at the tall man next to him.
"Hmm...... I listen to you. ”
At this time, Liang Yongxin's eyes flashed with the 'firmness' of having something to rely on.
And Luo Yifan's eyes flashed with loneliness and 'stubbornness'.
After calming the emotions of the two slightly, Luo Yifan adjusted his thoughts and began to think again:
First of all, he and Liang Yongxin are now trapped in the corridor, and there are a total of five doors around the corridor, all of which are now sealed.
With Luo Yifan standing now as the center point, behind him is the door of the small storage room, and there are two doors on the right hand, which are the doors of the bathroom and the stairwell.
On the left-hand side, from back to front, is the bedroom door and the door to the outside of the study. The direction of the eye is the wooden door that connects the hallway to the living room.
Except for the stairwell, the original doors of these five doors were all open, and now they are closed by the originally hidden wooden fence doors, so Luo Yifan and Liang Yongxin can clearly see the scenes in the bedroom, study, living room and storage room.
Now, the second floor must not be climbed again, because it is covered with traps, and it is impossible to leave the Luo Que House, and Luo Yifan himself has just escaped from it.
In this case, excluding the stairwell, study, and bedroom, all that remains is the door to the storage room and the door at the end of the corridor where Feigu is stuck.
One of these two doors allows two people to move into the basement, and the other can escape directly to the living room, and then escape outside through the door of the Roquehouse.
Now Luo Yifan has to find at least a way to break through one of these two doors, so that he and Liang Yongxin can have a chance of survival.
Another thing that Luo Yifan was concerned about was the sudden extra package behind the big bed in the bedroom.
When and where was it? If the package is a dead person, whose body will it be?
Luo Yifan's brain was spinning rapidly, and at the same time, he did not forget to pay attention to the safety of Liang Yongxin on the side at all times.
After all, with Liang Yongxin's 'little goat' character, he can only rely on himself now.
Putting away the arm that was on Liang Yongxin's shoulder, Luo Yifan's gaze stayed in the bedroom.
The balcony is fully enclosed, the windows are fully enclosed, and the material of the anti-theft net in these two places should be the same as the material of the anti-theft net on the "snow" balcony smashed by Ben Yi upstairs.
Luo Yifan secretly crossed them in his heart, and these two places definitely can't get out and can't get in.
Recalling the scene he had just experienced, Luo Yifan continued to think:
After rescuing Liang Yongxin, the two delayed for some time, and there should be no accidents during that time.
Then the two entered the bedroom, Liang Yongxin told himself how to open the mechanism in the basement, is there a package next to the bed at this time?
Definitely not, Luo Yifan secretly came up with the answer.
Then Liang Yongxin took himself to see the entrance of the basement, and the two entered the study again, and suddenly thought of the impossible mystery of Jiang Xinglong's disappearance in the study, and delayed for a few minutes.
During this time, the two doors inside and outside the study are still in a state of being able to enter and exit, can you see where the bedroom is behind the bed?
The answer was yes, and Luo Yifan was once again sure that there was no package behind the bed in the bedroom at that time.
However, when the two were in the study at that time, even if they couldn't see it, the murderer could not have the opportunity to put the package in, because there was no opening in the bedroom itself at that time, and the murderer had to go through the study anyway if he wanted to move the package into the bedroom, so it was the same as when Jiang Xinglong disappeared at that time, and the bedroom was in a fully closed state in disguise.
Later, he and Liang Yongxin came to the corridor, Liang Yongxin was frightened when he saw Fei Gu's body, and shrank at the door of the study, while he went to carry the things in the storage room.
At this time, one of them can see the bedroom, while the other can clearly see the movement in the study.
Thinking of this, Luo Yifan opened his mouth and asked Liang Yongxin: "Did you see anything unusual in the study when I was moving things just now?" ”
The reason why Luo Yifan asked this was because when he was moving, he had been hanging on Liang Yongxin's safety and didn't pay too much attention to the movements in the bedroom.
And if they didn't pay attention to the movement in the room next to them, the murderer had a chance to get the package into the bedroom, and that was to use the secret passage in the study wall.
Liang Yongxin paused and said, "Probably not, because I was afraid, so my eyes kept unconsciously looking at the situation in the study, and I didn't see anything." ”
"Okay, I got it."
In this way, the murderer of the time to carry did not have a chance to act, and Luo Yifan silently made a cross in his heart.
After thinking about all this, Luo Yifan's heart sank little by little......
Since they escaped from the secret room upstairs that the murderer called the 'phantom clone of the wall', Luo Yifan has only now realized that he has not escaped from the so-called secret room at all, but has been wandering in the cage set by the murderer.
After going downstairs, he actually went through three secret rooms one after another, two of which were triple secret rooms, and there were two impossible crimes in these two triple secret rooms.
The first is the disappearance of Jiang Xinglong, when in addition to the originally closed bedroom windows and balconies, there are still bedroom doors, the inner door of the study (which connects the secret passage in the wall, so it can be regarded as an independent secret room door) and the door on the outside of the study.
But according to Luo Yifan's analysis just now, it is impossible for the murderer to kidnap Jiang Xinglong from any of these three doors, so this is the first impossible crime and triple secret room.
The second is a mysterious package that appeared inexplicably in the room, and this secret room is even more thorough than the first one just now.
Luo Yifan and Jiang Xinglong were in the corridor, the corridor was completely closed, and none of the three doors in the bedroom and study could let the murderer in and out, but in such a sealed state, the humanoid package appeared in the bedroom inexplicably.
This one, which can almost be described as a double triple chamber and a complete impossible crime, in which the bedroom and the study make up the inner triple chamber, and the other three doors in the corridor form the outer triple chamber.
The last secret room is the corridor cage where they are now imprisoned, although this is not a puzzle, but it is a life and death secret room, if you can't break through inside, there is only a dead end.
After thinking about it, Luo Yifan felt the true taste of despair, what should he do?
He raised his head, as if asking himself, as if he were asking the heavens......
