The elevator that broke down was still parked between the 14th and 13th floors of the hotel.

Seven bodies inside the elevator. In order, there are middle-aged noblewomen, hotel waiters, mask men, Xiaolu, Teacher Ke, security guards and Tang Tao.

The lights flickered a few times and then came back on, reflecting the seven corpses in the elevator.

There was a dead silence.

But the silence didn't last long. After a few moments, one of the corpses suddenly moved, and then slowly got up.

This is obviously not a corpse fraud, but this person is not okay at all.

He was a man who faked his death – and the real murderer of the other six.

The murderer is a dark shadow, just like the kind of dark shadow in the Conan anime.

He/she slowly glanced at the six corpses in the elevator and sneered.

Obviously, he/he is very happy with his setup today.

All that's left is the finishing touches.

The black shadow pulled the hotel waiter's food truck into the middle of the elevator, then stood up, fiddling with the top of the elevator. It didn't take long for the skylight on the roof of the elevator car to open and an exit for one person to walk through.

The shadow didn't rush to leave through the exit overhead, but stood on the dining cart and continued to fiddle. After another moment, a living person had been dragged into the elevator by the black shadow and fell into the dining car.

It was a living man, gagged with a towel and bound with hemp rope. Dressed exactly like the Black Shadow, and with a similar body shape to him/her.

Then the shadow had an extra dagger in his hand.

The blade slashed the throat of the living and turned into a corpse.

- With the addition of this new corpse, there are still seven corpses in the elevator now.

And, of course, there is a living black shadow.

The situation is already obvious.

The black shadow had already prepared a stand-in for himself, and he had been tied to the roof of the elevator car. Now, this stand-in is his/her substitute.

So the conclusion is that seven people entered the elevator one after another, and then the elevator malfunctioned, and the seven people inside fought each other to death, and finally left seven corpses.

Seamless planning!

After the murderer used the exit at the top of the elevator to escape the scene, no one would have any suspicion at all, and no one would have thought that there was actually an eighth person in the elevator. And this eighth person is actually the real murderer who killed everyone.

So the Black Shadow is very happy with its layout.

He/she feels like a genius.

But it's time for genius to withdraw!

The dark shadow was ready to escape through the exit at the top.

Before leaving, he/she glanced at the seven corpses in the elevator with pity.

Who knew that he/she suddenly found that one of the corpses was still with his eyes open, silently staring at himself on the dining car.

This is the "corpse" of a young man, I am afraid that he is not even twenty years old, and he is quite handsome.

On the right side of his neck, there was apparently a knife wound, about five or six centimeters long, and although there was blood flowing from the wound, it was not deep, and it could only be said that it had scratched a little skin. And on his right shoulder, at this time, there is also a dagger.

The dark shadow suddenly realized.

It turned out that the dagger that he had secretly shot in the dark just now did not cut the young man's throat as he imagined, and took his life on the spot.

Not only that, but the other party actually copied his own idea, obviously it was no big deal, but he immediately fell to the ground and pretended to be dead, which deceived himself.

"You shouldn't have missed...... Shadow thought to herself, a little surprised.

But/she immediately regained his composure and asked in a calm voice:

"Was it your luck that you were able to pick up your life from my mortal blow, or did you already guess that the murderer was me, so you took precautions in advance?"

"What do you think?" Tang Lu threw the question back, and his voice was calm.

But he was actually scared to death.

At the moment of life and death just now, it was the almost unreasonable adaptability in Yang Wei's body that saved him:

Although the dagger shot by the murderer took advantage of the time and place, and there was no warning when it came, and it was inevitable to kill one, but in the last few tenths of a second, Tang Lu still moved his neck one centimeter away in time and dodged the fatal blow.

So the dagger just grazed the flesh of his neck, then hit the inner wall of the elevator behind him, bounced back and plunged into his shoulder.

Tang Lu didn't think much about it at that time, and his first reaction was to fall to the ground and pretend to be dead.

If you can't provoke it, can't you still hide it?

On the inside, he was just a college graduate who had just left campus, neither a soldier nor a police officer.

It is not easy to survive in the midst of danger. He is not obligated to take care of anything else, nor is he able to do so.

He could have played dead forever.

But seeing this black shadow standing up from the pile of dead people, then opening the top of the elevator, dragging in a corpse that had been prepared a long time ago as a substitute for the dead ghost, and then preparing to leave, Tang Xuan's thoughts gradually changed.

This black shadow is the murderer who brutally killed seven people, including his university teacher and classmate Xiao Lu.

Watching him/her run away like this?

But even if he is intact and does not suffer the heavy punch from the security guard, he may not be the opponent of this black shadow, so why kill himself?

Tang Yi originally thought that he could convince himself not to make extraneous branches, but in the end he found that he couldn't do it.

Maybe it's because you can't swallow this breath, or maybe it's because you can't put down this face, or maybe even because of the legendary word "justice......

No matter what the reason, Tang Lu finally decided to come forward, saying that he couldn't let the murderer leave.

............

The black shadow squatting on the dining car continued to stare at Tang Xuan.

"Looks like I underestimated you? I'd love to hear when you got suspicious of me?" asked the Shadow again.

Tang Yao, who was sitting on the ground, smiled.

The laughter was to hide the panic in his heart, because he didn't finally know who the murderer was until he saw it with his own eyes just now, and before that, Tang Lu didn't suspect him/her at all.

For the current Tang Yan, because of the hard battle with the security guards, his body has long been scarred, and he doesn't even have the strength to stand up.

So if you want to deal with this dark shadow, the only option is to outwit:

Stalling for time and seeing if a miracle happens.

"Of course, it was suspicious of you from the beginning. Tang Xuan seemed to be very sure.

"Oh, I'd love to know. The dark shadow asked.

Tang Yi smiled again.

This time it's a heartfelt laugh.

It is very difficult to infer the result from the phenomenon, and no one can guarantee that their inference is 100% correct.

But it is very, very easy to trace the phenomenon through the results, and anyone can do it as long as it is an individual.

It's like doing a question on an exam, and in the face of the four options of ABCD, how do you look at it and think it's all correct. But once you know the correct answer, you can look back at the other three options, and you will feel that all of them are wrong.

That's why there are so many experts in the world who are "hindsight and pig-like beforehand".

And now that Tang Lu already knows the identity of the murderer, he can find a hundred reasons in minutes:

"Isn't that easy?

Why did the murderer set up a murder plot and make such trouble? Of course, there is only one purpose, that is, to get rid of his suspicion and evade the punishment of the law!

Although the murderer can arrange in advance, let the elevator malfunction and get stuck, control the lights in the elevator, install mobile phone signal jammers, and cut off surveillance and video equipment...... But no matter how good the murderer's ability is, it is impossible to control all the surveillance and video of the entire Nantang Binhu Hotel, let alone the surveillance and video of all the streets near the hotel.

Therefore, as long as the murderer walks into this hotel, he will definitely be photographed by the surveillance, thus exposing his whereabouts and leaving his own identity, how can he use other people's corpses as his own substitutes? In this way, it will be photographed by the surveillance anyway, and the murder game carefully designed by the murderer in the elevator is not in vain, and there is no meaning at all?

As long as you understand this, the answer is already coming

- Among the seven people trapped in the elevator, there is actually one exception, and that is you!

Only you don't have to worry about being caught on camera in the hotel at all. That's why you can use a stand-in as your own substitute ghost, so that others think that you have died in the elevator!

Because before that, even if the surveillance cameras in the hotel or on the street outside filmed you, no one knew your real identity, not even your face!"

The dark shadow on the "......" food truck.

Then he reached out and took off the mask on his face and wiped the "blood" on his neck

- His neck is intact.

This is a middle-aged man in his thirties, although his face is very calm, but his eyes have revealed a fierce and fierce light.
