Chapter Eighty-Three: The Fog Lifts

With her help, R and G were able to enter the large wooden door blocked near the entrance to the basement. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The evidence that R imagined should be in the hall behind the wooden door, and at this moment, the two men carefully observed the ground.

Because that's where he stepped on the slimy stuff, according to G.

The basement was empty, and now there was no one left, only the blood and marks of Xiao Yun left in the corner.

For the marks in the corner, G is more guilty, and R is more of pain.

So both of them chose not to look there.

"Do you remember the powder?" R asked G as he observed. He held a small flashlight that came out of Hemina's mouth.

"Remember! Is that the powder around the refrigerator you saw upstairs before entering the 'Wall Phantom Clone Technique' secret room? Those were indeed flour, and I tasted a little bit too, and there was nothing wrong with that! ”

G thought of the secret room in the clouds, and a wry smile appeared on his face, this murderer really knows how to name and make trouble.

"No," R said, reaching out and pinching a bit of dried black and white slime on the ground, "there's something else in there." ”

"What's that?"

"Drugs!"

R's words made G stunned, and he didn't know what to say all of a sudden.

Before he could react, R had already continued.

"I know you can't believe that such a small villa hides so many secrets. Like you, I can't believe it. ”

"But facts are facts, and maybe you want to ask, why did I know it was drugs, why didn't I tell everybody at the time."

"Because I don't want to panic everyone, and I don't want to expose my privacy in front of everyone."

After saying this, R paused for a moment, perhaps trying to get G used to it a bit.

Then he continued: "When I lost Xiao Yun, I had just bought 21 years old, and at that time I was young and vigorous, coupled with despair and decadence, I gave up my studies and drank heavily every day. ”

"Later, I met those so-called scumbags who led me into the abyss of hell. That was many years ago. ”

"I'm about to forget those things now......" R lowered his head, his hands hanging over his knees, looking a little lonely.

G stood quietly behind him and listened, there were some things that G knew, but some things that he had heard for the first time.

G thought that as long as he could get out alive, he was willing to keep these secrets for the people in front of him. It's a little compensation as a friend. Also, as a price for his willingness to trust himself.

To be honest, G didn't expect R to trust him so much, after all, Xiao Yun's life and death are still uncertain, and he has made mistakes.

"Let's analyze the current situation, none of us should remember the past." G said.

Hearing his words, R raised his head, and some white light flashed in his eyes, and then disappeared.

R continued: "It now appears that the killer was there to spread flour, not only to highlight the footprints, but also to cover up the drug powder that had not had time to clean up. ”

"I did taste a mouthful of flour, but there was a faint hint of a hallucinogen, which I knew was just a decade ago in the drug market in my country."

"And the corrupt officials in the house were caught, and the house was seized more than 20 years ago, so I can't be sure if there was a drug deal here at that time."

"But judging from the evidence we have now, it is very likely that there are people in Roquehouse who have secretly engaged in drug production and trading in the past ten years."

"Look," R pulled out the fragments in his pants pocket, something he had collected in the secret passage of the red room on the second floor.

"These fragments were once loaded with hallucinogens, a new type of hallucinogen, which is said to have been extracted from some kind of plant and flower. I don't know exactly what to do, I've only been exposed to it a little bit. ”

"When I was in the secret passage, I didn't have enough trust in you, so I didn't tell you immediately when I picked it up."

"For I am not sure if any of you are among you who are accomplices of the prisoners."

"I can understand this," G continued, "At that time, you can rest assured, or the only people you can trust are Xiao Yun and Emi." ”

"You're afraid that once you tell it, people who know the source of these things will be prepared, and it will be more difficult for us to catch the murderer." G crouches down next to R, and as he speaks, you pick up a little bit of dried slime on the ground.

"Do you remember when I was crawling into the secret passage, I suddenly leaned and hit the wall?" R asked.

"Of course I do!"

"That's when I picked up these fragments, the murderer couldn't have deliberately left them in the passage, maybe he accidentally broke them when he was carrying Wei Guigui's unconscious or dead body, but he didn't have time to clean them carefully, so he left them there."

"In other words, you didn't hold it steady because you picked up those debris, so you bumped into the wall?" G asked.

"No, it's because I smell the debris in my hand, and I said that these debris may be used to load new drugs, and I must have smelled the debris to think so."

"The hallucinogenic effect of this new type of drug extracted from plants and flowers is very violent, as long as you inhale a little bit, people will immediately become groggy and completely out of their control."

"It was just because I smelled the slightest smell of the debris that I instantly dizzy and hit the wall."

"How can it be so powerful? What is this drug called? ”

"I don't know, I said I've only touched a little bit, and I remember the taste because I know the name of the flower used to refine it."

"They are not actually flowers, the scientific name is the black feather jade cactus, and it grows in the desert of northern Mexico, this plant has never been seen, and it has only been mentioned once."

"The drugs it refines are said to have a much greater hallucinogenic effect than traditional drugs."

"Really?" G was a little incredulous, "According to what you said, in the past ten years, L and I have not been going to the house often, but have provided them with a breeding ground for crime!" ”

"Yes, and I suspect that the villagers in this nearby countryside may have been bought by the murderer and are helping the murderer make drugs together."

"It's just a suspicion, but I think it's very likely."

"You think, you and L hardly come to live in the Bird's House, and you don't know that there are so many secret rooms here, and it is easy for the murderer to avoid your eyes and conduct secret operations here."

"But it takes a lot of workers to make a lot of drugs, right? It is impossible for him to take a large number of people with him to live in the Arrowhouse, so that you will surely find out when you come. ”

"So it's possible that he used money to bribe the villagers in the neighborhood who don't have any sense of law. Let the villagers make drugs for him, and even carry them. ”

Hearing this, G nodded in approval and said, "It's really possible, we bought the Luoque House back then, but it was actually just to have a place where we could go on a secret date." As you know, L and I are in a special situation and can't be publicized in front of people. ”

"And we were both very busy with work, so we didn't have a lot of time to come to the house. I was thinking that maybe this was their den before we bought the house. ”

"What do you say?!" R looks at G.

"I want to know a little more about the situation of this Luoque House than you, more than 20 years ago, after the so-called corrupt official was arrested, the police did not find a penny of the money he embezzled."

Having preliminarily confirmed the nature of the mucus on the ground, R and G put the small pieces of evidence in their hands into their trouser pockets, and they must now take care to collect every bit of evidence that they can obtain so that they can provide it to the police in the future as evidence for the investigation and conviction.

The two men stood up and moved down the basement hall as G continued:

"At that time, the police almost turned the house upside down, and also found a lot of suspicious places. In fact, the police wondered if there was any other space in this house. ”

"But after yesterday's incident, you can also see that the concealment method of the entrance to the secret room in the house is quite clever, and we were able to enter it by an unknown person who pried open the entrance to the secret passage for us."

"Moreover, at that time, there was a small real estate developer who was on the verge of bankruptcy, and when the police had just announced the lifting of the ban on Luoque House, he hurriedly came to buy it."

"The reason for the small real estate developer is that he has no money to buy luxury holiday villas, so he can only rely on cheap villas in these remote places to try to make some money from people with special fetishes."

"He heard that some parts of this house are very special, so he hurried over to have a look."

However, the police are not stupid, and of course they have done a full investigation of the background of this small real estate developer. The result of the investigation was that he had a very clean background, did not have any criminal record, and was a good law-abiding citizen.

Next, the Luoque House was to be auctioned anyway, and the small real estate developer successfully became his homeowner.

"These are the things I learned about through certain contacts years after I sold the house."

"Probably after L let you see the unusual places in the Row's House, you went to investigate, right?" R asked a little coldly.

G didn't answer, just nodded.

"So," R continued, as the two men approached the gap in the basement hall, about to enter the passage leading to the basement exit (which was connected to the storage room on the first floor).

"Let's sum it up! A few guesses we're going to tell the police later! ”

"First, it is possible that Roquehouse has been secretly producing and trading drugs for at least the last ten years."

"Second, the small real estate developer who bought the house needs to be re-investigated, but it is not certain that he must have been a participant in the crime."

"Third, I think there may be two groups of murderers in this building."

As soon as R said this, G immediately turned his head to look at him and asked, "Why?!" ”

"It's not very clear now, I'm just guessing that it may be a murder designed by some insiders who coveted the money left over from corrupt officials back then."

"It's possible that they're not really trying to kill us, it's the people who have been making and selling drugs in the house."

"So, will it be the same people who want money as the drug traffickers?" G interjected.

"It's very unlikely, because you think, they were able to hide under Luo Li's house for so many years without being discovered by you, so why do they want to jump out now and not continue to hide?"

"Isn't that weird? If you want to kill someone, you can do it ten years ago, or even longer, until now? Unlikely! ”

R leaned against the wall, gasped for a moment, and continued:

"The most likely scenario is that the descendants of the corrupt officials back then, or some insiders, have been looking for opportunities to enter the Luoque House."

"Then they may have inadvertently learned the current secret in the Bird House, and planned to kill the drug traffickers together, and these people will not see the light of day anyway."

Then, the drug money and the money left over from that year were pocketed. And this time we went up the mountain, it became a tool for them to use. ”

"That means we're just being killed incidentally." G leaned against the wall not too far from the hall in a somewhat dejected manner, feeling mixed feelings.

These inferences, not to mention whether they are correct or not, just listening to them, G feels that the people around him, the dead and wounded, are too unworthy!

R continued: "The murderer can't let anyone who knows escape from the house, otherwise, his plan will be in vain."

"Xiao Yun, they can't be considered people in the know. But, after all, they have also experienced homicides, and as soon as these are reported to the police, the police will immediately start investigating. ”

"Now with the power of the police, it is not difficult to find out the secrets in the house."

"I'm wondering why the murderer didn't actively pursue you later, and why shouldn't he have been able to let anyone go? I couldn't figure this out. ”

At this moment, faintly, there seemed to be a woman's cry from somewhere in the house, and a cry for help.

As soon as R heard this voice, he immediately became nervous, he closed his mouth, walked a few steps closer to the basement exit, and listened carefully

After listening for a few seconds, he suddenly shouted at G behind him: "Quick, let's hurry up, it's Emi's cry for help!!"

“?! What the? Good!! ”

Immediately, the two men rushed upstairs one after the other......
