Chapter 43: Conjecture

"Sister...... Mo Zhefan wanted to step forward and call her, but was stopped by Chen Su.

Chen Su stared at Qin Yu's lonely and deep back, and shook his head lightly at Mo Zhefan: "Let her go alone." ”

As the sun set, night approached quickly, and the light orange glow still had its last shadows, but it didn't take long for it to be swallowed up by the inky blue.

Qin Yu pushed open the dusty tower door, stepped up the steps step by step, and when she saw the painting hanging on the wall, she choked back tears, put her hands together pious and calm, and said, "Dad, I'm here to see you." ”

The painting depicts a young couple leaning against the lighthouse with their arms in their arms, and the brush paints the turquoise waters vividly, with several cyan birds hovering above the lighthouse in the vast sky. The golden light sprinkled on their shoulders, as if it was about to shine through the paper, deep in her mind.

Although after several years of baptism, the scroll has long been yellowed and damaged.

But despite this, Qin Yu still saw the joy of the young couple from this painting.

The whole lighthouse exudes a rotten smell, mixed with the salty and wet smell of seawater, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

However, Qin Yu still insisted on staying inside.

She walked the same path her father had walked countless times, reaching out and touching the bumpy wall along the way. The broken stone cut her hand, but she didn't care.

Until—she saw a copper-gold key.

It lay quietly under the old tables and chairs, covered with a layer of silver-gray gravel, and it was impossible to see such a small thing unless you looked closely.

But partially, Qin Yu felt that it must be very important for it to appear here.

Thinking of this, she immediately crouched down and picked it up, and hurried to the door to try it.

Unfortunately, it's not the key that unlocks the lighthouse.

Qin Yu sighed and returned to the place just now.

Just when she was at a loss, she unexpectedly found that there seemed to be traces of loosening under the bed frame leaning against the innermost side wall.

As the sea breeze blew in from the window, the shelves creaked and creaked, and she couldn't help but lift her spirits and tiptoe to the bed frame.

Perhaps it had been uninhabited for too long, and the bed frame had formed a lot of dense cobwebs. The mesh was intricately intertwined, and it took Qin Yu a long time to take out a thin piece of paper from under the bed frame.

The paper was very clean, but when he saw the words written on it, Qin Yu's pupils instantly dilated several times.

"Peihan, let's go!" She read them word by word.

Pei Han?

Qin Peihan!

It was her mother's name.

Qin Yu covered his mouth, and just wanted to stand up and report his situation to the two people outside. But in the next second, a terrible conjecture grew from the bottom of her heart.

She was so excited.

So much so that when I saw these words, I completely ignored the problem that the paper was clean.

A beacon that no one comes all year round, a dusty environment everywhere, beds, tables and chairs covered in cobwebs......

Why is there a clean piece of paper?

Could it be that in the past 20 years, there have been other people like her who have come here to investigate the truth of the "Lighthouse Blue Bird Case" out of curiosity.

So, this is someone who came here ahead of time and put down this misleading piece of paper.

This man, knowing her mother's name and knowing her whereabouts, played a game of chess, even calculating that she would be here and would find these clues.

And then what?

The next step is for her to follow the chess path set by that person to uncover the truth behind the scenes. But in the end, she found out that what was waiting for her was not necessarily the truth.

Most likely, it was the murderer's poison.
