Chapter 6: Evil Spirits Lurking in the Crowd
"Wan'er, it's time, it's time to go." Although Zhongli Wan'er had told him not to call her, the uneasiness in his heart made Ouyang Xiu think that it was better to be careful, he didn't want to see Zhongli Wan'er get hurt, so Ouyang Xiu came to Zhongli Wan'er's room and knocked on the door a few times.
Aren't you leaving?
After waiting for more than a minute, Ouyang Xiu also heard a response from the room, Ouyang Xiu couldn't help but think that Zhongli Wan'er had already left, and was careful, Ouyang Xiu still pushed the door of Zhongli Wan'er's room, and the door was unexpectedly pushed open, which made Ouyang Xiu slightly stunned, and then a helpless smile appeared on his face, he really served Zhongli Wan'er, he didn't even lock the door before leaving, what if someone stole something?
Nothing was left behind, was there?
Ouyang Xiu walked into Zhongli Wan'er's room and looked around, the room layout was similar to his own room, the only difference was that the iron window was not rusty, for some reason, Ouyang Xiu reached out to try the sturdiness of the iron window, and found that it seemed to be no different from his own window, and for a while Ouyang Xiu was a little puzzled, how could he do such a thing.
After checking that there were no valuables in the room, Ouyang Xiu was just about to leave the room, but the next moment he stopped, the whole person froze in place, his face turned pale, the reason was very simple, because the owner of this room, Zhongli Wan'er, was standing in front of the door, holding his hands on his chest, looking at Ouyang Xiu with interest, and Ouyang Xiu felt a sense of danger no matter how he felt with that smile.
"Wan'er, why are you back?" Ouyang Xiu reluctantly smiled, pretending that nothing had happened to greet Zhongli Wan'er as usual, but the cold sweat on his forehead was getting more and more, how to see that Ouyang Xiu was very nervous.
"I suddenly remembered that the room was unlocked and came back to take a look, but I didn't expect to make a major discovery." Speaking of this, Zhongli Wan'er approached Ouyang Xiu with a smile on her face, and with every step she took, the resentment emanating from her body became a little stronger, and Ouyang Xiu could even see that the resentment gradually formed the face of a female ghost behind Zhongli Wan'er, and Ouyang Xiu trembled with fright.
"I didn't expect Ouyang Xiu, a well-known detective, to have an interest in running into the girl's room, what a pervert! What if those who revere you knew what would become of you? ”
"Ahem!" Zhongli Wan'er's blow stabbed Ouyang Xiu's heart, and suddenly Ouyang Xiu squatted on the ground tremblingly, saying that language is a sharp blade, Ouyang Xiu thought that what he said was right, just now, he was almost "killed" directly by this blow of language.
"Are you going to search my bag?" The more Zhongli Wan'er spoke, the smile on her face became thicker, and she really didn't know if she was having fun with Ouyang Xiu or really being angry with Ouyang Xiu at this moment.
"How is that possible! I just want to ......"
"What qualifications does the pervert have to explain? Yes? How do you explain that? Can you guarantee that you haven't touched anything since you entered my room? Didn't think about anything? ”
"What are you talking about! Have you forgotten that you invited me into your room when you were a child......"
"Wow, I still remember what happened when I was a child, and it's really a pervert! It's not an ordinary pervert, **, idiot! I was so mistaken about you! Go back and tell everyone that you are such a person! Don't try to quibble, the facts are in front of you, and it's useless for you to say anything! ”
"Woo!" Seeing that Ouyang Xiu still had the intention to refute, Zhongli Wan'er made up for it again, and stabbed Ouyang Xiu with a few words in a row, and the whole person was lying on the ground and convulsing, that miserable appearance, tsk, can only be described as miserable.
What is this? Ouyang Xiu burst into tears, he is now a dumb person eating Coptis - there is no way to tell if he is suffering, in order not to let himself be injured and injured, Ouyang Xiu decided to lie on the ground and remain silent for the time being, now it is really boring to compare with Zhong Li Wan'er.
After Ouyang Xiu recalled this incident, he only said one sentence: "Never make Zhongli Wan'er angry, otherwise you will experience what hell is called at that time, you will never get up from the ground again, at that moment, you will feel that it is better to die quickly!" ”
……
The misunderstanding was finally cleared up.
After coming to the hall, Ouyang Xiu sighed weakly, but he spent nearly ten minutes explaining to Zhong Li Wan'er, on the way, he was even attacked by Zhong Li Wan'er's crazy language, if it weren't for his psychological endurance being stronger than ordinary people, I'm afraid he would have hid in the bed and cried alone.
Fortunately, when Ouyang Xiu and Zhongli Wan'er came to the castle hall, Du Ji had just begun to announce the content of the event, and in general, the two of them were not late, and they did not miss anything about the event, which was a good result.
And then there's ......
Hearing that there was nothing particularly important in Du Ji's words, Ouyang Xiu decided not to continue listening, took a deep breath, the fatigue on his face suddenly disappeared, and his eyes kept flashing, which meant that Ouyang Xiu was starting to get serious, he wanted to find out who the black shadow that he cared about before was, and expose the true face and true purpose of that person.
Are all five college students? Ouyang Xiu looked at the other contestants, Sun Yu he had already seen, the remaining four were two women and two men, the appearance of the four of them was a public face, there was no outstanding performance, the only thing Ouyang Xiu cared about was that one of the women had a mole on the corner of his mouth, and the other man was full of stubble, as if he hadn't shaved for several years.
Who could it be? Ouyang Xiu frowned, he had no evidence to prove that the true face of the black shadow was one of the five contestants, the stairs were very dim at that time, he didn't see any characteristics of the black shadow at all, plus the remaining four contestants were almost the same size, Ouyang Xiu really couldn't find out the true face of the black shadow.
And in addition to the contestants, the middle-aged man next to Du Ji was also suspicious. Ouyang Xiu glanced at the man in the butler uniform next to Du Ji out of the corner of his eye, his size was about the same as the four contestants, Du Ji kept his eyes closed during the speech, as if he was asleep, but it gave people a shrewd and capable feeling, I am afraid that Du Ji suddenly ordered him to do something, he would do it immediately.
This kind of person is the most difficult to deal with.
The reason why Ouyang Xiu is not looking at the other party is also afraid that the other party will suddenly open his eyes and look at him, so that he will startle the snake, after all, he is secretly collecting intelligence now, and what will happen is just his intuition, there is no evidence to prove it, if his keen intuition causes the dark shadow to change his plan, then Ouyang Xiu will be difficult to do, the current situation is that the enemy is dark and I am dark, if Ouyang Xiu exposes his intentions, it will become the enemy and I am bright, that is the situation that Ouyang Xiu does not want to see, That kind of situation is the most difficult to control, and you never know what the opponent's next move will be.
Since Ouyang Xiu couldn't find the true face of the black shadow, he was ready to wait and see what happened for the time being, so he continued to listen to Du Ji as if he was fine, and at this moment, the housekeeper next to Du Ji opened his left eye slightly, stared at Ouyang Xiu for a few seconds and then slowly closed it, no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.
Du Ji's speech ended quickly, the activity was very simple, the contestants could investigate the castle at will, but in some time periods, they must be in a designated place, such as eating in the restaurant, and they must go back to the room before ten o'clock in the evening, what Ouyang Xiu cares about is that the stairs leading to the east and west areas will be closed after ten o'clock in the evening, and the key is held by Du Ji and the housekeeper respectively, saying that it is a measure taken to prevent the contestants from investigating in the middle of the night and causing a commotion in the entire ancient castle, but Ouyang Xiu always feels that the reason is not so simple.
"Yo, Ouyang Xiu, let me introduce you to my companion." As soon as Du Ji left, Sun Yu took his companions to greet Ouyang Xiu and Zhongli Wan'er, pointed to the lady with a mole on the corner of her mouth and began to introduce them one by one, "She is my girlfriend, her name is Hou Meiqian, but now she is in trouble." The lady next to her is called Shen Luo, and the sloppy-looking man next to her is my best friend Cai Jin, and the last one is Shen Luo's childhood sweetheart Sun Li. ”
"Hello, my name is Ouyang Xiu, I am the president of the Sherlock Detective Club of Quinn Academy, I believe someone has heard of my name, and the one next to me is Zhongli Wan'er, a member of the Sherlock Detective Agency, and also my ......" Ouyang Xiu greeted them with a smile, but he didn't notice that when he said the last sentence, Zhongli Wan'er's ears were obviously pricked up.
"It can be regarded as a childhood sweetheart." The next sentence directly made Zhongli Wan'er's ears bend down, and she widened the distance between herself and Ouyang Xiu in small steps, and finally stopped in front of a pair of knight's armor, staring at the helmet tightly, not knowing what she was thinking.
What's wrong with it? Finding that the distance between him and Zhongli Wan'er was gradually widening a lot, Ouyang Xiu scratched his head, thinking to himself what kind of temper Zhongli Wan'er was making again, was he still angry that he had just broken into her room? Shouldn't you, haven't you already explained it? But is there anything else? A woman's heart is a needle!
