"Huh?" Yu Xing held the note and squinted his eyes, then glanced diagonally behind him calmly.
No one passed by.
Is this killer's note... updated in real time?
That’s interesting. It seems like this is a supernatural deduction game.
However, do you think I care about your food? It’s not as delicious as my own food... Tsk.
Yu Xing stuffed the note back into the vegetables, closed the refrigerator door with a normal expression, and bent over to open the freezer.
"If nothing unexpected...is there something weird here to scare me?" He whispered, starting from the bottom and opening the cold drawers expectantly.
empty.
A section of large intestine.
a heart.
Yu Xing: "The grain reserves are not up to standard..."
Except for the bottom drawer, there are two types of organs placed in the middle and above. The top seems to have been poured with water at the beginning and is tightly wrapped in condensed ice.
Yu Xing took it out and took a look at it. They were all things that had lost their activity. When the large intestine was slightly touched, the ice layer cracked and fell straight down.
"Oh, you put these things in the refrigerator, do you think it can interfere with my judgment?" He recovered in a good mood, closed the drawer and the refrigerator door, and reached out to rinse under the faucet again.
Listening to the sound of water rushing through the fingers and the gurgling sound of the kettle boiling next to him, Yu Xing had another profile of the killer in his mind: the building where the killer was located should be absolutely safe, and there was no need for a refrigerator to hide the body.
.
And looking at the treasure-like jars on the wall in the autopsy room, and the vegetables and animal meats on the upper shelf of the refrigerator, we know that the killer's attitude towards the corpses is "collecting" rather than "eating".
So these two things in the freezer should have been placed here deliberately, hoping that he would mistakenly think that the killer was eating them, and that he would be afraid of the killer deep down in his heart.
Because people have an instinctive fear of things that are beyond their understanding. It just so happens that people are creatures that like to make associations. They often only need a few hints to make things spread like a spider web and achieve their goal.
So the conclusion is that this killer, rather than killing the "doctor" directly, seems to want the "doctor" to be defeated mentally.
Yu Xing wiped his hands and planned to look through other cabinets in the kitchen to see if he could find any numerical clues to the combination lock. At the same time, his mind was not idle:
The killer has a desire to defeat the doctor... His personality is not calm, but in reality he is afraid of being ripped off as a normal person, so he has developed the habit of patience. Once he has the opportunity, he will take action, which is also mixed with the desire to win or lose.
, vanity, and even a little fear of doctors.
"Oh~" Yu Xing sighed inexplicably.
The killer has too many character weaknesses.
He only used some simple profiling, which was to infer the psychological state of the other party based on his behavior, and thereby analyze his character. This method was not difficult, but it was painful for the killer. Every "warning" and scare
It's like giving him a clue.
Since he didn't know if the killer had been spying on him in the form of a ghost, Yu Xing decided not to tell anyone about this discovery, otherwise what if the killer wouldn't be happy to come.
Now he is more curious about what his role as a doctor did to the killer before he was kidnapped.
"Ding--"
When he opened the tableware cabinet, Yu Xing moved a little louder. The crisp sound of several iron chopsticks when they hit each other made him end his mocking of the killer... analyze and concentrate on looking for clues.
The cabinets are filled with common items in the kitchen. There is oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, but a lack of salt, but there are plenty of pots and pans.
After flipping through the pages without interest for a while, Yu Xing finally saw "The Hope of the Whole Kitchen" in front of the microwave oven.
"What's this?"
The microwave was powered on, and it was bright inside, and a small key could be faintly seen.
At the same time, a piece of paper was pressed underneath by a bottle of soy sauce.
Yu Xing took out the note and saw the first line:
[The microwave is fake. I never need to eat food from every other meal. After all, I have so many "fresh" ingredients here~]
"Poor little guy, you even hinted to me that he eats corpses..." Yu Xing felt sorry for the killer for a second, and felt silently for the killer's unfounded scare tactics.
He continued to look down.
[This is actually a safe with a three-digit password. You only need to turn the duration and temperature buttons to open it. Inside is the toilet water tank key. I have left a surprise for you~]
[The riddle is: We in the morgue cast happy glances at you. We can still sleep for many days, but you stayed awake all night under our gaze. We don’t know what you are counting. Are you counting sheep?
"One, two, three..."]
[Oops, I forgot to mention, you only have three chances. If you fail three times, the key will be melted by the high temperature, and you will have no chance to escape, hahahahahaha]
"Oh? Solve the puzzle?" Yu Xing's eyes stayed on the puzzle given, completely ignoring the last part of the killer's gloating.
Two seconds later, he got closer to the two knobs of the microwave oven and looked at them. The knobs were much thinner than normal, and the scales were also very fine. There were exactly one hundred scales in a circle, and only four scales were marked 0, 45, 90, and 135.
number.
"Hmm... morgue... counting sheep?" Yu Xing straightened up, with a smile showing from the corners of his slightly raised eyes, "Isn't it too kind to give three chances to this kind of word puzzle?"
He looked back and entered the hall with the knife he had picked up from the dissecting room.
The hall was still empty, and it could be seen that before Yu Xing, or the doctor, woke up, corpses had been lying on these iron beds, that is, the owners of the organs in the jars in the autopsy room.
I don't know where the body went.
Yu Xing observed carefully this time and measured the area of the hall with the naked eye through his own steps. The hall is a 20*20 square, which is exactly 400 square meters.
The iron beds are evenly distributed, with intervals of about three meters. Excluding a few gaps, there are 23 beds in total.
After counting clearly, Yu Xing returned to the kitchen and tapped the top of the microwave oven with his fingers, making a slight muffled sound.
"Ready knowledge, the temperature in the morgue is -8c."
He muttered in a low voice and turned the [temperature] knob counterclockwise eight steps with his hand.
"In the puzzle, when I was awake all night, I was not counting sheep, but the number of corpses in the morgue."
[Duration] Turn the knob clockwise 23 scales.
"Click."
The lid of the microwave oven opened a crack, and Yu Xing took out the silver water tank key that was smaller than a normal key.
Carrying the key, Yu Xing didn't waste much time. After leaving the kitchen, he went straight to the toilet.
Toilet is a general term, Yu Xing thinks this place can also be called "laundry room" and "bathroom".
As soon as you walk in, you are faced with two washing machines placed side by side, followed by a small cloakroom.
There are bath towels and hand towels hanging in the cupboard, and there are shower gel, shampoo, conditioner and other toiletries underneath. It has to be said that if you ignore the situation at this time, Yu Xing will think that this place is not bad.
At least the floor was clean and it was okay for him to walk around the house barefoot.
Opening the movable glass door, Yu Xing looked inside and saw that it was the shower room.
The toilet is in the shower room, and his target water tank is also there.
Dangling the key in his hand, Yu Xing walked over calmly.
There was no need to think about why the water tank was locked. He inserted the key into the keyhole, turned it slightly, and the lid opened smoothly.
The water tank was not big, and Yu Xing guessed that there was a high probability that a human head would not fit inside, so he was slightly curious to see what the so-called surprise was.
There is only one note.
"Well..." Yu Xing uttered a slightly uncertain monosyllable, as if he was hesitating whether to complain about why a killer likes to throw small notes so much.
How old are you? Clean up these useless ones!
He glanced at the contents of the note.
[The bedroom key was sewn into the human body by me. Guess which one it is in? Hahahaha... go out and enjoy it? 】
Bedroom? The room that can’t be opened turns out to be a bedroom, and someone really lives here...
Just as Yu Xing was thinking about it, the bright light above his head suddenly started to flicker on and off as if it was disturbed by something.
He raised his eyebrows and passed the closet with the sound of the light bulb "sizzling". Suddenly, the light went out completely.
The eyes that were accustomed to the light were suddenly surrounded by darkness. Yu Xing closed his eyes to adapt, quickly adjusted his vision, and took a short look outside.
The lights were not only turned off in the toilets, but also in the hall. It looked like someone had pulled the main switch.
He slowed down and when he walked to the washing machine, a small red light appeared in the hall.
The red light was still shaking, and it was easy to identify it as a candle.
"Is there anyone?"
He squinted his eyes, and from a little distance, he could vaguely see the outline of a person's head and arms in the red light.
However, the man seemed to be lying down. Judging from the height, he was lying on an iron bed.
That's an iron bed for corpses.
Yu Xing didn't let Yu Xing observe for too long. Soon, red lights lit up one after another. Yu Xing counted in his mind: 23 places.
The iron beds that were empty just now now have a person, or in other words, a corpse lying on each one.
The corpses were holding red candles in their hands, and the light from the candles was also strangely red, forming a large "wax lighting" scene in the darkness.
They seemed to be conveying a signal to Yu Xing:
I hope something happens to the person, I hope the person is gone.
Others might have been frightened by this "underworld" scene and hesitated for a while, but after Yu Xing saw it clearly, he walked directly towards the nearest iron bed without stopping.
He was barefoot and stood quietly next to a corpse.
This is the corpse of a man who looks like a teenager. The corpse is lying flat and the decomposition is not obvious. His hands are gathered in front of his chest, holding a red candle. If you don't pay attention, you might think that it is just asleep.
When Yu Xing leaned over slightly to check the state of the corpse, the corpse's closed eyes moved and suddenly opened, a pair of empty eyes staring at him unblinkingly.
With this starting point, the other corpses also opened their eyes one after another, turned their heads to different angles, and looked at Yu Xing.
Just like in the puzzle, they were watching him.
But the difference is... the person in the puzzle couldn't sleep all night, but Yu Xing had no disturbance in his heart, and even raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
The red light reflected on his pale skin and loose hospital gown, and his feminine facial features seemed a little more coquettish and unreal, which made people feel flustered inexplicably.
Facing the gaze of more than twenty corpses, with a gentle smile on his face, he touched the hair of the corpse in front of him:
"That's right, I've been wondering where you guys went. How could you be missing from the Corpse Carnival?"
