Looking at the calm sea, although there are still no ships passing by on the sea, it still makes people shudder. But at least at this moment, walking along the edge of Qindao, the warmth above my head is not blazing.
The sunshine, the gentle sea breeze, and the occasional chirping of seabirds flying by make it a vacation trip worth remembering.
It's a pity that just under this calm surface, a killer appears every night and takes away a life, and Cheng Yu doesn't seem to have found a suitable way to break the situation yet.
Not far away, Liu Manman in a long skirt showed a bit of a girlish attitude. Perhaps she was attracted by the vast and calm sea. She laughed from the bottom of her heart and stood in the shallow water.
It keeps running back and forth like a happy puppy.
But Cheng Yu knew that this kind of happiness was extremely temporary, and even some were intentional. After all, even if the fourth wall was not broken, it was impossible for a woman like Liu Manman not to know that the killings on the island would eventually continue, even if
Cheng Yu and her found evidence that Su Xi was the murderer of Bai Xiaowen, and Old London also dealt with him accordingly. I am afraid that a new killer will still appear tonight.
Liu Manman probably just wanted to relax for as short a time as possible. On this island, everyone is under too much pressure. If they don't find an outlet to vent in time, sooner or later they will have a nervous breakdown.
On ordinary days, who would come into contact with corpses one after another like this?
The person who was alive and kicking and confronting her a few hours ago was now motionless and allowed Old London to transport her to an almost unprotected "morgue" on the seaside.
Old London was considerate in building simple houses and carefully selected tarpaulins that were waterproof and rainproof, but they could not protect them from foraging animals and seabirds.
Chen Yu's body was unrecognizable, and Bai Xiaowen's will be the same soon.
Not to mention blasphemy, Cheng Yu has no religious or ethical ideological barriers. He even knows that Chen Yu and Bai Xiaowen are just a bunch of data, but he still feels unbearable. This is human nature.
The biggest difference between humans and animals is not that they can walk upright, speak or write, or work. The biggest difference between humans and animals is that no matter how unscrupulous they are, they will still do things in certain situations.
show their humanity. And this is especially true for the vast majority of ordinary people.
Human nature is a manifestation of civilization, so Cheng Yu couldn't bear the tragic situation faced by the two corpses at this moment, but he also understood that the corpses must not be left in the villa. It would be fine if there was just some smell, in case the corpses were putrid
If you bring some germs, you'll be in big trouble.
Therefore, Cheng Yu could only watch Old London carrying Bai Xiaowen's body and rolling it into the simple "morgue".
"Old London is only disposing of the corpse now..." Liu Manman said softly behind Cheng Yu.
They just finished lunch at nearly three o'clock, and it was only then that Old London had time to clean up. Cheng Yu and Liu Manman walked around the island for more than an hour, and for more than an hour, Old London must have been busy all the time.
Things like that in the dining room and kitchen.
"Although it can be divided into four, Old London is really busy. If there were only eight or nine guests, it probably wouldn't be so busy, but the constant deaths have undoubtedly increased the workload of Old London."
Cheng Yu walked straight to the morgue and stopped five or six meters away. He first said hello to Su Xi and Guo Ping'an, who seemed to be admiring the scenery at the beach, but were actually paying close attention to what was happening below the sea.
Then, patiently waiting for Old London to come out of the "morgue".
"Hey, Old London, was Xie Yanwen up when you came out?" Cheng Yu looked at his watch before asking. The time pointed to 4:17 in the afternoon.
"It turned out to be Mr. Cheng. Mr. Xie went to the lobby on the first floor to find Old London around 3:50 and asked if I could get him some food. After Old London also cut some fish and shellfish for him, Xie
The husband took it back to his room to eat. The time he returned home was about 4:07."
Cheng Yu frowned slightly, and there were some questions in Old London's answer: "Did Xie Yanwen go back to the house immediately after getting the food you prepared for him?"
"Yes."
"But you arrived here a few minutes ago, and you only have less than ten minutes. There is no way you can carry Bai Xiaowen's body here from the villa, right?"
Old London, strictly speaking, is two quarters. Old London clicked into one. It said: "Dear Mr. Cheng, have you forgotten that Old London can be divided into four.
At that time, No. 2 and I had already carried Ms. Bai's body out of the door, and No. 3 and No. 4 were still busy in the restaurant. Although our bodies were separated, we shared the same brain. What happened to No. 3 and No. 4
, we can also synchronize in real time."
Cheng Yu nodded and did not ask any more questions. The old London half slowly rolled towards the villa.
It's not that Cheng Yu didn't expect this, he was just confirming it, and confirming this point was for some of the details in what Old London just said.
Old London's report was too detailed. Cheng Yu just asked him if Xie Yanwen had gotten up, but Old London told Cheng Yu everything Xie Yanwen did after he came downstairs, as well as the exact time.
The more important thing is that Cheng Yu didn't ask Xie Yanwen when he returned to the house, but Old London told Cheng Yu this time.
No one would have a conversation like this, even if the other person is an intelligent robot.
There are only two possibilities for why Old London answered like this.
First, Xie Yanwen's behavior in the villa just now and now is very important, at least for Cheng Yu's subsequent plot advancement. Or, perhaps, Old London has just become an NPC that issues tasks in the game, and its line is fixed.
Yes, whenever someone asks it about Xie Yanwen, it will give a similar answer.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! And these two possibilities, no matter which they are, at least show that Xie Yanwen's proportion in the strange seven-person group seems to be larger.
This person has a problem, and it's a big problem.
A trace of worry arose in Cheng Yu's heart, and he walked quickly towards Guo Pingan and Su Xi. Although at this moment he should actually be more concerned about whether Guo Pingan and Su Xi were related, Cheng Yu simply chatted with them.
In two sentences, after getting the information that they had found nothing, he also told them that he and Liu Manman had found nothing when they walked half way around the island, and finally put the question on the only place he actually wanted to know.
"Didn't Mr. Deng also say before that he would come here with you to wait and see?"
Su Xi lowered her head and covered her forehead with her hands. Her ponytail was not very friendly in this kind of sunlight. The sun would tingle on her exposed forehead.
Guo Ping'an explained: "We came together at first, but after staying for a while, Ms. Su seemed to be allergic to ultraviolet rays, so Mr. Deng said he would go back to the villa to get some useful things. Calculating the time, it should be
It’s almost time to go back.”
Cheng Yu frowned, thinking that the plot was a little too unrefined? Why would Mao and Deng Jingliang go back to get it? Su Xi was allergic to ultraviolet rays and asked her to go back and wait until the sun had basically gone down before coming back.
At this time, Su Xi finally raised her head and explained: "I originally said that I would go back by myself, so I would ask Brother Guo and Mr. Deng to wait first, and I would come over later to replace them. But Mr. Deng said that he usually hikes and camps with his friends.
He is more experienced in situations like this that can occur outdoors. And it doesn’t take long for him to run back and forth.”
Cheng Yuxin said that this is a forced plot, is it forced?
But the more this happened, the slightly uneasy feeling in Cheng Yu's heart became more serious.
Here, Old London emphasized the time for Xie Yanwen to go downstairs and return to his room, but over there, Deng Jingliang insisted on returning to the villa in an unreasonable way. Cheng Yu always felt that something was going to happen here.
"When did Mr. Deng go back?"
"We got here about twenty minutes and a half an hour ago. I didn't look at my watch when he left. Brother Guo, did you check your watch at that time?" Su Xi put her hands on the awning and asked Guo Ping'an with squinted eyes.
Guo Ping'an shook his head and said: "I don't have the habit of wearing a watch. I usually use my mobile phone to check the time. Today I didn't bring my mobile phone because I had company."
Although neither of them could give a definite time, Su Xi's judgment means that Deng Jingliang walked back at about 3:30. It is a distance of 800 to 900 meters. If you go faster, 7 to 8 minutes will be enough.
, even if he goes back at a normal pace, ten minutes is almost enough. It takes twenty minutes to go back and forth, even if he has to prepare some things, it has been nearly an hour since Deng Jingliang went back, which is really abnormal.
Seemingly sensing Cheng Yu's uneasiness, Su Xi suddenly said: "Mr. Cheng, are you worried about Mr. Deng and Mr. Xie..."
All of a sudden, the hearts of the four people on the beach were raised. The most anxious one was of course Liu Manman, but she couldn't show the slightest worry yet. She wanted to run back to the villa immediately to find out, but she couldn't move her steps.
"We can't rule out the possibility." Cheng Yu said decisively, "Let's do this, Sister Manman, let's go back to the villa and take a look..."
Liu Manman was secretly grateful, but there were two outsiders here, so she still maintained her character of not caring about other things after arriving on the island, and said: "I am not familiar with either of them, and I have no intention of getting familiar with them.
Get up, no matter whether something happened to them or not, at least the four of us are innocent, because during this period of time, we all have alibi witnesses. So, Master, go ahead by yourself, I will continue to wander."
After that, Liu Manman continued walking along the edge of Qindao seemingly casually.
