Liu Manman knew that once she was forced to express her position, she would have to agree. But as long as she expressed her position before Deng Jingliang changed his mind, it would be troublesome.
Because in the previous scripts written by Deng Jingliang and Liu Manman, Deng Jingliang's character was a brainless opponent of Liu Manman. As long as Liu Manman agreed, he would unconditionally oppose it.
The current situation is even more embarrassing, because Deng Jingliang has already expressed his opposition. Cheng Yu tried to persuade him for a long time, but was directly pushed out by Xie Yanwen. If Deng Jingliang made a rash change after Liu Manman chose to agree,
stance, that will make many people suspicious.
Therefore, Liu Manman is not the person suitable to speak out at this moment.
Of course, Su Xi can continue to lobby, but Deng Jingliang has missed the best opportunity to change his position. At this time, based on Su Xi's words alone, it would be far-fetched for him to change his stance.
Cheng Yu and Liu Manman looked at each other silently, and they could see in each other's eyes that everyone knew that at this time, the most suitable person to express their opinions was Guo Pingan.
But again, the more Guo Ping'an wants everyone to gather together, the less he can express his stance easily.
For a moment, the scene froze.
Liu Manman sighed slightly in her heart, thinking that she could just push it if it didn't work out. Who would have thought that there was something wrong with Cheng Yu's script?
Somewhat complaining in her heart, Liu Manman said to herself, Cheng Yu, didn't you say it well before? What do you mean, you bet that Xie Yanwen would not express his position easily, this is good, you made a bet, and you lost the bet, what should you do? You can only let it be done by
My mother immediately acted up.
Liu Manman decided to jump out and ask Bai Xiaowen if she agreed or opposed it.
Moreover, regardless of whether Bai Xiaowen opposed or agreed, as long as she gave an answer, Liu Manman directly said that the person at this table who is least qualified to express an opinion is you, Bai Xiaowen.
Cheng Yu was also at war between heaven and man at this moment.
The reason why he was so sure before and said he was willing to bet that Xie Yanwen would never speak was because he was ready to use a silence spell to make Xie Yanwen never mention this matter. But after all, it was ten points, and the plot
The progress has not yet reached the stage where Cheng Yu expected that Xie Yanwen might express his position.
But who would have thought that Xie Yanwen would make an unreasonable move at the most inappropriate moment, which even made Cheng Yu doubt whether this fat guy was beheaded by Bai Xiaowen? The persona he had shown before was completely different.
Yes.
Is it still useful to impose a silence spell on him now?
Of course, Cheng Yu can also use negotiation skills. With the help of that thing, Cheng Yu will definitely not be inferior in his verbal battle with the scholars, not to mention that he just wants to force Bai Xiaowen to express his position in person.
However, would that seem too eager and affect the success rate of this matter?
Just when Cheng Yu and Liu Manman were in a dilemma, Xie Yanwen spoke again.
"I'm sorry, Master, I'm not targeting you. I just spoke out of my feelings. Let me express my opinion directly. I am opposed to Ms. Su's proposal because there is a fatal flaw in her proposal."
Su Xi was stunned. She thought that what Xie Yanwen was going to say was the same as what Cheng Yu had said before, so she said anxiously: "What loophole? You want to say that as long as even one person objects, my proposal will..."
Before Su Xi could finish speaking, Xie Yanwen continued: "The reason why I had a somewhat irritable conversation with the master just now was because the fatal flaw in Ms. Su's proposal was hidden in the master's words. I was in a hurry at the time.
Next, the way he spoke was a little more agitated."
Cheng Yu frowned and said, "What are you talking about?"
Xie Yanwen pushed up the glasses on his face and said calmly: "Did Mr. Deng object to this proposal just now? He said that if everyone gets together, someone will kill others while they are sleeping. And you, Master, have done something about this
Explain, you said that as long as they are within the surveillance range of Old London, no one dares to attack anyone else. Indeed, this sentence seems very reasonable. After Old London finishes his daily work, he will definitely stay on the first floor. If we
Ask it to stay in the hall, and it shouldn't object."
"Then what's the problem?" This question was asked by Cheng Yu and Su Xi at the same time.
Xie Yanwen pushed up his glasses again and said: "Let me tell you something that everyone may not know. There are seven people here. Last night, all six of you should have gone to bed, right? I don't know what time you went to bed, but I can
You must have never left your room from midnight to five o'clock in the morning. Of course, the murderer of Chen Yu should have stayed in Chen Yu's room and did not leave until after five o'clock in the morning. Or maybe
He attacked Chen Yu before twelve o'clock, so he had already returned to his room before twelve o'clock."
All of this is fine, but why is Xie Yanwen so sure?
"How do you know?" Cheng Yu blurted out, and then realized that this Xie Yanwen seemed to have been up all night. This was what he said himself in the morning when everyone knocked on his door together when he suspected that something had happened to Chen Yu.
At that time, he did not say that he had been up all night, but that he was used to going to bed late and did not have the habit of eating breakfast. He usually slept until noon.
If this afternoon refers to after twelve o'clock, then in order to ensure eight hours of sleep, he should go to bed before four o'clock. But what if this afternoon refers to two or three o'clock in the afternoon? Or he will get up to have lunch,
And then continue to sleep in the afternoon? Then it is normal for him to not sleep until after dawn.
When Cheng Yu was talking to the two little squirrels in the afternoon, he also discovered that someone had been there earlier than him, but there was still some distance between them, so the two little squirrels couldn't see clearly what it was like.
That person, Cheng Yu had also doubted whether it was Xie Yanwen.
"So, you went to bed after dawn?" Cheng Yu asked after thinking about it.
Xie Yanwen nodded and said: "Yes, it was already past five o'clock when I went to bed. Before that, I had been sitting in the living room playing music. Although the door was closed, if there was anyone walking in the corridor, unless
That person deliberately concealed his movements, otherwise I should have heard it. And if someone came in and out of the room, it would be difficult for me not to hear it, because the mechanical unlocking sound of the door lock was really too harsh, especially in the middle of the night.
"The most important thing is that the sound of the door lock is not transmitted through the air, but through the wall itself, so the sound insulation of the room does not help much."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Cheng Yu agrees with this point, and no one will have objections. In fact, everyone has noticed that the door locks of each room in the villa, opening and closing
When it is locked, it will make a very penetrating mechanical sound. If Xie Yanwen really spent the whole night writing music, it is absolutely impossible not to hear this.
"The last time I heard the sound of the door lock was before twelve o'clock. I even glanced at the time because I wondered why anyone was returning to the room so late."
Deng Jingliang was dissatisfied and asked: "How do you know you are going back to your room? What if someone goes out?"
Cheng Yuxin said that Deng Jingliang could become one of the seven strangers only because of Liu Manman's help. His IQ may be good, but compared to the others here, he is really not that interesting.
With that door lock, if you are coming out of the house, you only need to press the door handle and then go out. After closing the door, the door lock will make a mechanical sound of locking.
And if you go back to the house, the card will be inserted, and then the door lock will make a mechanical sound of unlocking. The person enters the house, closes the door again, and the door lock will make a mechanical sound of locking. This process occurs twice.
Therefore, as long as you pay a little attention, everyone can easily tell whether someone is returning to the house or someone is leaving the house.
Xie Yanwen also explained it again, and Deng Jingliang scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and said: "Uh... I'm sorry, I didn't pay much attention to this, and I didn't turn around for a while."
Xie Yanwen ignored him and continued: "I fell asleep quickly after I went to bed, so I don't know your entry and exit after five o'clock."
Of course there is no problem with this. Xie Yanwen continued: "At about two o'clock, I felt a little hungry. There was no food in the house, and I had finished drinking water, so I decided to go downstairs to look for it.
Old London, let's see if it can get me something to eat. When we came, Old London received us, and it told me anyway that it would satisfy all normal requests. I think a person is used to eating supper.
Night, this should be a normal request, right? However, when I got downstairs and called out to Old London, Old London did not appear. At that time, Old London was standing in front of me."
Everyone frowned. What Xie Yanwen said was really puzzling. Since Old London was right in front of him, how could he say it didn't appear?
"Do you think I was a little incoherent? I was also confused at the time. Although I didn't turn on the light on the first floor, I held a flashlight in my hand. As I walked down the last two steps, I softly shouted the name of Old London.
. Logically speaking, in such a quiet night, Old London must easily hear my voice and appear in front of me. I should even let me determine its position first, because as long as it moves, it acts as a wheel.
It makes a unique sound. On a night like last night, I should easily be able to hear its approximate location. However, I stood at the top of the stairs and shouted for a long time, but there was no sound in the hall. In desperation, I just
I was able to wander around with a flashlight, and then I was frightened because Old London was right next to the stairs, and where I was standing at that time, Old London was almost a meter across from me."
"What's going on?" Even Guo Ping'an couldn't help but ask.
Cheng Yu had already guessed the answer. This was indeed Cheng Yu's negligence. Cheng Yu had not thought of this before.
"Is Old London charging?" Cheng Yu asked.
Xie Yanwen gently snapped his fingers and said: "Bingo!"
Cheng Yu nodded helplessly, smiled bitterly, and turned to look at Old London, who was standing aside and had finished the skewers.
Cheng Yu asked: "Old London, how often do you usually charge the battery?"
Nowadays, the only thing we can hope for is that it takes a long time for Old London to recharge, and last night it just happened to be the time to recharge.
However, Old London's words dashed Cheng Yu's last hope.
Old London said: "Old London has to charge every night, and the charging time is from two to four in the morning."
Xie Yanwen nodded and said: "I have confirmed this with Old London later. When I went downstairs for the first time, I found that Old London was charging. Although it had said before that the kitchen was not an area that was allowed to enter, but I
I thought that since Old London was charging at the time, it ignored me when I called it, which meant that Old London was not working at that time. So I wanted to go to the kitchen to get something to eat. But the kitchen door was locked, and the dining room door was also locked.
, I couldn’t even go through the restaurant. But I had no choice but to go back to the room. At three o’clock and early four o’clock, I went there once. The second time I asked for the food from Old London and confirmed it at the same time.
