Chapter 88: Seven Killing Stones (9)

Walking out of the light of teleportation, the first person who caught the eyes of Li Mengxi and Hinata Nayin was Lauren Thomson, who seemed to have been waiting for a long time. Both of them were a little surprised to see him.

"I'm here to hear you tell you the details. Noticing the expressions of the two, Lauren took two steps closer and explained, "It's just noon, let's find a decent restaurant to eat and chat, what do you two think?"

It was a tempting proposal, and in fact they were already feeling a little tired after hearing the news of Syrgyn Bach's death. But it is precisely at this time that they have to ask themselves, "Is this really good?"

"Thank you for your kindness, but we'll forgive you for refusing. Li Mengxi took a deep breath and replied in a loud voice, "The incident is far from over, what you want to know, I will write a report and hand it to you when I come back." By the way, you should have someone to guard the scene. ”

"Of course. ”

"Then we'll go over there. Saying that, Li Mengxi tilted his head and glanced at Hinata Nain. "Let's go, Nain. ”

"Hmm. ”

So, the two of them passed by Lauren Thomson and walked briskly towards the South End.

Lauren slowly turned around and looked at the two distant backs, and sighed slightly.

"It's good to work hard, but ...... If you become the third or fourth victim, I'm going to be in trouble. And according to Duke Edlaide, Li Mengxi, if you lose, no one is safe. ”

The danger he said was obvious, but after it was indeed involved in a murder, the first thought in the minds of Li Mengxi and Hinata Naine was no longer "their own safety" but "catching the prisoner".

"Yumekei, we've got to catch that guy!" Hinata said in a firm tone as she walked.

"Don't worry, there's nothing in this world that I want to do but can't do!"

In this way, the two left the square of the obelisk and arrived at the hotel rented by "Sey-Bach" in the southern district. At the door of the store stood a man who was clearly waiting - Winscher Belgu.

Seeing him, the two of them quickened their pace to meet him.

"Mr. Belgu, why are you here?" asked Li Mengxi.

"Well, you don't have to use the titles of 'sir' and 'you', I don't dare to be at the same level as the president. Winscher smiled a little unconfidently.

Sure enough, this person's self-confidence is somewhat lacking. However, the two sides are not good friends, so there is no need to break this. And that's not the number one priority.

"So, can we call you Winscher?" Li Mengxi asked for advice. Nane Hinata, who was on the side, also nodded.

"Yes, yes. By the way, I'm here because of the president's order. He was afraid that the person in charge of guarding the victim's room did not know the two and that it would cause any trouble that would hinder the investigation. ”

"Thank you, that, Winscher. Naine Hinata smiled and thanked her.

"No thanks, it's my job. Then the two of you, please. ”

Afterwards, Winscher took Li Mengxi and Hinata Nain to the room of "Saiyi Bach" on the second floor.

Two employees of the "Morning Post" stood on both sides of the door, one on the left and one on the right, and they both looked at Winscher's name with some respect. It seems that although this person is not confident, his prestige in the newspaper is not low, and he is probably the second person after the president Lauren Thomson.

"I promise it's absolutely untouched, at least no one has touched anything since we arrived. ”

Winscher stood still in front of the door, twisted the doorknob and opened the door, revealing the inside.

One bedroom and one living room, as a hotel room, it is considered to be an upper middle class, but the furnishings are very simple. In the corner of the living room, two sofas are placed opposite each other from a round table, on which are two cups containing what appears to be a strong black liquid of coffee, and many props are scattered around the sofa by the window. This scene is so similar to the scene after the man was killed that night.

Looking at this scene, Li Mengxi and Hinata Nain walked into the room. The former made a beeline to the couch where the props had fallen, while the latter walked to the table.

Li Mengxi squatted down and picked up three or four pieces at random from the scattered props, and each of them popped up a window to confirm the pickup, which showed that these props did not have an owner.

"It seems that Sey-Bach was killed while sitting here. Saying that, Li Mengxi stood up and looked at the other sofa, "And the murderer is sitting opposite, and he is really an acquaintance." ”

"Hmm. I think so too. Hinata Nayin and Li Mengxi nodded in agreement with each other, "No one in this world would deliberately prepare 'Fahrenheit coffee' for strangers." ”

"Fahrenheit?"

"It's a coffee bean that is only sold at a coffee shop in Linglangxuan, and it takes half an hour to brew it to make liquid coffee. If you are visiting from a stranger, quick tea is the usual option. ”

"In other words, the murderer did not kill Seys Bach as soon as he entered the door, but waited for at least half an hour......" Li Mengxi's eyes wandered between the two sofas for a moment, imagining the scene at the time of the crime. "No, maybe it's longer, and the two of them talked for a while. ”

"Well, that's how it should be. Naine Nakahinata also showed a puzzled expression, "But why? If I'm the murderer, I'm not in the mood to wait for the person who is about to be killed to spend half an hour making a cup of coffee and then chatting with him in a friendly manner." ”

Hearing this, Li Mengxi pondered. So, Winscher, who had been watching from a distance, took a few steps forward at this time and interjected: "It's not necessarily that you're not in the mood. ”

"Well, if Winscher, are you in the mood?" Naine Hinata asked in an incredulous tone with a subtle expression.

"No! No, I'm not so bad. Seeing Hinata's eyes, Winscher hurriedly excused, "But what if this is not out of special interest? Didn't you just say that the murderer and the slain Sey-Bach were acquaintances?" Maybe there's a reason to talk before you kill someone. ”

"It's like Winscher said. Li Mengxi spoke, "Maybe the murderer is slowly telling the victim why he was killed, of course, the killing intent is only shown at the end." ”

"If that's the case, it's a classic revenge. Winscher said.

When it comes to revenge, and then thinking of the effect of the Seven Killing Stones, Hinata Naine suddenly realized: "Could it be that the two victims killed people who were very important to the murderer, so the murderer intends to take revenge by the way when he uses the Seven Killing Stones." ”

"Maybe it's not just two people involved. You must know that the Seven Killing Stones require seven sacrifices. Li Mengxi replied worriedly, "In this case, maybe there is still some information left in this room by Sai Bach in case it is left." Nain, you check these props, I'll check the bedroom. Also, Winscher, could you please help investigate this living room? ”

"Willing to help. Winscher agreed.

Immediately, the three of them took action.

After a little examination of the scattered props, Hinata found a piece of stationery with words on it, but only a few twisted ones. It seems to be the beginning of the last words or something from the content.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but feel sad. Seijn Bach seems to have decided that he was going to die, so he was ready to write his last words, but then he was unwilling to accept the reality of death, and gave up writing it further. If only he had managed to survive.

"I found a notepad. At this moment, Li Mengxi walked out of the bedroom while holding a small brown notebook. So, Hinata Naon also talked about her discovery and got up and leaned in.

"It seems that there is nothing left in the living room. Seeing that both of them had made discoveries, Winscher looked into the living room and felt that there was no place to find it, so he leaned in.

Under the gaze of three pairs of eyes, Li Mengxi held the letter paper given by Naine Hinata in one hand, and opened a page of the notepad with the other hand to show it.

On that page of the notebook there are exactly seven names, including "Seyd Bach", and one of them is the name of the first victim who has been crossed out a few times.

The handwriting on the letter paper and notepad is very similar, so it can be assumed that it was actually written by a single person. It's just that the former is more distorted, while the latter is more neat. This is probably because the latter was written while Seysin Bach was still very calm, and he was already flustered when he wrote the former.

It seems that Sey-Bach is making a list of people he thinks may be related. Well, the next thing we're going to do is find them. Li Mengxi said to Hinata Nain, but the latter seemed to have called up something and looked at it deafly.

"Sure enough, it's her!" said Hinata, pushing out the list of friends she was looking at and showing it to the other two. Then she pointed to Li Mengxi and said to the notepad: "This girl, I met at Halowin's celebration banquet last year, it seems that she also had a male companion at that time. ”

was slightly stunned at first, and then Li Mengxi smiled happily.

"Great, maybe I'll be able to find two people in one go. Friend hunting really comes in handy in unexpected places. ”

"Friend hunting?"

"Nothing. Saying that, Li Mengxi hurriedly moved his gaze to Winscher, "Then, Nayin and I will go to find this person, please Winscher, you go to the cemetery to confirm whether these people are still alive." ”

"Okay, no problem. ”

May they be safe.

Listening to the conversation between the other two, Hinata silently prayed in her heart.
