Chapter 358: Box
On top of the box, there is also a very delicate lock! It looks very quaint.
He picked up the box, pursed his lips and blew away the ash on it, and while slowly opening it, he said: "I opened this box once three months ago, and I just signed a contract with the owner of this house to guard the house, so I have the opportunity to investigate the clues." ”
When he opened the box completely, I saw several large envelopes with red wax inside. He took out the ten envelopes, turned around, and handed them to me.
"See for yourself!" He said.
I took the ten envelopes and found the bottom three, with the wax on them, with the names of the three missing people on them.
I couldn't help but take a deep breath, looked up at him, and asked, "So you mean to say that what you said when you reported the crime was your speculation?" ”
"Yes, and it's a very accurate guess, I believe that seven more victims will be killed. I've written the names of all seven of them to the police here, but they're completely inappropriate. ”
"Actually, there is such a thing, otherwise the case would not have come to us, and I would not have come here." I say.
His gaze suddenly sharpened, "Then why didn't you protect them?" Actually, you still don't trust my judgment, that's why you're here to investigate me, aren't you? ”
As he spoke, he approached step by step.
I was forced to step backwards, and my heel tripped over the threshold, so much so that I fell to the ground.
"Bang!" Just as I fell, I found that each of these envelopes had four letters printed on it: TDEP.
These English letters are on the white envelope paper, showing a faint golden light, which is a little eye-catching.
So when Tie Yuanjing chased him out, I hurriedly swept the envelope on the floor, showed it to him, and said, "Look, have you seen these English letters?" ”
His attention was suddenly diverted from me, and his gaze fell on the envelope.
Slowly crouching down, he was here, carefully scrutinizing.
Maybe it was because I heard the movement of me falling, Wang Qiuyue and Song Siyu also ran downstairs.
When they saw me slumped on the ground, they hurried over and helped me up.
With the help of the two of them, I slowly got up. However, Tie Yuanjing was still squatting there, his eyes as if he was completely attracted by the envelope.
In fact, is he a madman after all? From the outside, he looks more like a professional detective.
In particular, his eye, which seemed to be able to see through things, made me doubt his identity.
Tie Yuanjing looked at the envelope again and again, and after looking at it for a long time, he slowly stood up and asked me, "What do you think TDEP represents?" ”
"It's not an English word." I'm pretty sure of that, but I can't think of anything else.
Wang Qiuyue suddenly said, "It could be some kind of world organization, right?" Otherwise, let's Baidu it! ”
Tie Yuanjing also agreed with Wang Qiuyue's opinion.
However, after using the WiFi survey here, we were very disappointed! TDEP is TDEP, even the translation is, there is no news or anything like that, these four English letters have appeared.
But all ten envelopes have this reflected on it, so I think it's probably some kind of brand logo.
So I typed in the multiple search engines again: envelope, TDEP.
The result can be imagined, or nothing was found!
Just when we were thinking about the four English letters, I felt that Tie Yuanjing's mental state was not so tense and seemed a little relaxed, so I took the opportunity to ask, "Besides, have you found any clues?" ”
"Yes, it's about the owner of this house, he must have more or less connection with the murderer, otherwise why would the two have an argument?"
I nodded, agreed, and asked, "So you said they were dead, do you know where their bodies are buried now?" ”
"I don't know, after I sneaked here, I also investigated against all odds, but I didn't find the body!" When Tie Yuanjing said this, he was a little emotional, and he secretly punched the table with his right fist.
Seeing that his spirit was not so stable, I didn't dare to ask again, but Wang Qiuyue also asked again: "You said that the owner of this house is dead, is this also what you see?" Did you see him killed? ”
Tie Yuanjing began to recall: "Yes, this is what happened after I moved in to investigate. It was my third day of staying, and the landlord was going abroad, but late that night someone came to visit him, and the person who came to visit, I called him a ghost. ”
At this, his gaze became terrifying, and his head was raised to look at the pillar on the edge of the corridor on the second floor.
Immediately afterwards, he said eloquently: "In their eyes, I am the same as me in your eyes, just a neurotic who is not afraid of heaven and earth. And their dispute is also because the landlord asked me to come here to see the house.
The ghost didn't think I could be trusted, and the landlord said, 'He's just a psychopath, what if he knew?' Do you think that even someone would believe the words of a neurotic? But the ghost, still not believing it, had a conflict with the landlord on this floor.
After that, he killed the landlord, and when I rushed down to stop him, he also injured me. All I could watch was as he dragged the landlord away, and the ground was covered in blood. ”
"So did you call the police? This thing! I asked.
Tie Yuanjing said: "No, because I know that the police will not believe me." ”
"Alright! In fact, the 'ghost' you are talking about should be the murderer, and he and the landlord are likely to be in a group, right? I asked.
Tie Yuanjing nodded slightly, looked up at me, and said, "That's right, so the reason why I stayed here was to wait for him to come back." I have a hunch that he will be back in a few days, so in the evening, if you hear any movement in your room, it is better not to come out, otherwise you will bear the consequences. ”
These last four words, he accentuated his tone, giving me a feeling of being shocked.
Then he turned and left.
I stood there, watching his back as he left and returned to his room, thinking to myself that what he was telling was true.
However, I don't have his 100% certainty and self, and everything can only be possible before it is revealed, and I am not completely sure.
Wang Qiuyue waited for him to go away before he came over and asked me, "When are we leaving?" ”
"Leave? Why? "I feel that with Tie Yuanjing, I should be able to find out more things.
Wang Qiuyue swept open the envelope on the table and said, "Look at the names written on this envelope, it is clear that they are the names of the missing people. Ten envelopes, three of the people on the envelopes have already had accidents, and there are still seven left, and the person on the fourth envelope, Bai Jiye, is likely to be the murderer's next target. ”
