Although Liu Manman was worried all the way, now that she knew it was too late for Cheng Yu to come back, she calmed down completely.
Nodding slightly, Liu Manman stopped looking at Yan Xing and said, "So, the murderer can only be Xie Yanwen, right? Cheng Yu, help me find him."
Cheng Yu slowly shook his head and said: "First of all, we are not even sure that Deng Jingliang is dead. Secondly, even if something unfortunate happened, we still need to find his body first. From what I have discovered so far,
Xie Yanwen is indeed the most suspect, but Guo Ping'an and Su Xi may not be without suspicion. So, you open the door first, and we can look at Deng Jingliang and Xie Yanwen's room from the terrace to see if we can find anything."
Although Liu Manman didn't understand why Cheng Yu said that Guo Ping'an and Su Xi were also suspected, she understood that there was no need for Cheng Yu to lie to herself, and it was indeed most important to determine the current situation first.
So she took out her room card, opened her door, and the two of them filed in.
After leaving the terrace door, Cheng Yu wanted to say that they would check a room each, but considering that Liu Manman's mood might get out of control at any time, he still accompanied Liu Manman to Deng Jingliang's room at the far west end.
Behind the floor-to-ceiling windows of Deng Jingliang's room, the curtains were wide open, giving a clear view. The room was not neat and tidy, but it was not too messy either. Everything was displayed in front of Cheng Yu and Liu Manman. There was no one there, and Deng Jingliang was not in the room.
.
On the coffee table in the living room, there is a small medicine box.
Maybe Deng Jingliang really often plays outdoors, or maybe he brought this small medicine box because he suddenly came to such an isolated island with his cousin.
The lid of the medicine box was open, and it was obvious that Deng Jingliang had taken the things and was about to leave.
This seems to indicate that Deng Jingliang really came back to get the medicine. After taking the medicine, he was ready to return to the beach, but he was tricked by Xie Yanwen at the door and failed to go back as promised.
However, there is a very big problem here, the time is not right.
Seeing that Liu Manman was getting angry again, Cheng Yu grabbed her hand.
It is soft and boneless, and should be a very comfortable hand to hold, but at this moment, it seems a little cold, and there is still some sweat in the palm.
"Not sure yet, don't panic."
"What's not certain?" Liu Manman raised her head sadly.
Cheng Yu said: "Nothing is certain."
"You want to comfort me that Xiaoliang is not dead yet?"
"This is just one of them. The second one may not be the murderer or Xie Yanwen."
Liu Manman broke away from Cheng Yu's hand, stared at him, and said, "Do you still want to speak for Su Xi?"
Cheng Yu frowned, wondering where this was going. What does this have to do with Su Xi?
But considering Liu Manman's mood at the moment, Cheng Yu just sighed and said, "Let's go see Xie Yanwen's room first. After reading it, I will slowly explain my findings and my inferences to you."
Liu Manman looked seriously into Cheng Yu's eyes, and finally nodded. The two of them climbed over the heavy fence and arrived outside Xie Yanwen's house, which was actually only separated from Liu Manman's room by a wall.
However, just as Cheng Yu expected, the curtains in Xie Yanwen's room were drawn very well and tightly, and it was impossible to see anything in the room.
"Why are you holding me back?" Liu Manman was anxious.
Cheng Yu said: "If I hadn't pulled you, you would have broken in through the window. Old London is here, we can at least go find it and let it open the door."
Liu Manman had the right idea. Without saying a word, she returned to her terrace and rushed into the house. She didn't even care about the terrace door and rushed straight to the corridor.
Cheng Yu was still helping Liu Manman close the lock on her terrace door when he heard Liu Manman's voice calling Old London.
I thought that Old London's voice would ring out in response, but I didn't expect that Liu Manman shouted for a long time, but there was no answer from Old London.
There is no doubt that old London is out again.
Cheng Yu stood in the living room. He could almost imagine what Liu Manman was going to do next, but he had already blocked the road leading to the terrace.
"Get out of the way, I'll smash the glass." Liu Manman was actually very calm, but obviously, Cheng Yu thought she wasn't calm enough.
"First of all, these glasses are tempered glass. It is difficult to break open with bare hands. You need some tools. Secondly, although breaking glass is not restricted by the rules on this island, it is basically certain that Xie Yanwen is not in the house.
It won't help if you smash it open. Third, as I said, I will share with you my findings and inferences just now. After you listen, it is time for Old London to come back anyway. Then you can find it to open the door again. If it doesn't
If you are willing to drive, how about I help you break the glass?"
Following Cheng Yu's words, Liu Manman finally calmed down.
"Sorry, I was a little too anxious..." After a while, Liu Manman finally calmed down completely.
Cheng Yu held her shoulders, pushed her to turn around, and said, "Let's go to the corridor so that if Xie Yanwen appears, we can notice it immediately."
Liu Manman turned around obediently and walked out of her room.
"After being separated from you at the beach, it only took me about five minutes to return to the villa. I thought that at least one of Old London No. 3 and No. 4 would stay in the villa, but no one responded after I called. I went upstairs.
, I knocked on Xie Yanwen’s door first, because theoretically no matter what happened to Deng Jingliang, Xie Yanwen should stay in his room.”
Liu Manman nodded, she couldn't understand this logic.
"Same as now, there is no response from Xie Yanwen's house. I knocked on the door very loudly. There is no such thing as not hearing it. I believe that even if he fell asleep, he should have been woken up by me. You can believe this
Bar?"
Liu Manman nodded again. She probably knew Cheng Yu's strength. If he was really desperate, it wouldn't be unusual for Cheng Yu to say that he could break in directly. He said that the sound of knocking on the door could wake up a sleeping person.
Do it even if the bedroom door is closed.

I knocked on Xie Yanwen's door hard. Unless Deng Jingliang passed out, he would have heard it if he was in his room. But I still knocked on Deng Jingliang's door in almost the same way. Of course, the result was the same, and
No one responded."
Liu Manman seemed a little impatient again. She waved her hand as if she was chasing away a fly and said, "Don't say these useless things. Tell me what valuable clues you found."
Cheng Yu didn't mind Liu Manman's attitude and continued: "Just when I wanted to use Bai Xiaowen's room card to go to the terrace to check the situation of the two rooms, I suddenly found something like this on the floor..."
While talking, Cheng Yu took out the thin string that he had put in his pocket before, stretched it out and placed it in Liu Manman's hand.
"What is this?" Liu Manman was very surprised, not understanding what was so special about a thin thread.
Cheng Yu pointed to the door of Su Xi's room and said: "This thin line was found near here. When I found this line, I also noticed an abnormal feeling, but I didn't realize this abnormality at the time.
Where does it come from, I just feel like something is not quite right..."
"This floor is so clean, there is no dust at all, but there is clearly a thin layer of dust on both sides of the corridor, indicating that someone has wiped this floor before."
Unexpectedly, Liu Manman directly expressed Cheng Yu's abnormal feeling at that time.
Cheng Yu nodded and said: "Yes, this is what I realized later. I found that there was still some dust on both sides of the corridor, and there was dust to the west from Deng Jingliang's door. But to the east, up to the door of Xie Yanwen's room, there was dust.
Everything is just like here, as if someone has wiped it..."
Liu Manman interrupted Cheng Yu again and said, "It was Xie Yanwen who killed Xiaoliang and then dragged his body into his room."
Cheng Yu shook his head and said: "I guess at least at that time, Deng Jingliang was not dead, but just fainted."
"Then no matter what, is it possible that Xiao Liang is still alive now? Don't tell me that Xie Yanwen knocked Xiao Liang out just to lock him in his room. Moreover, doesn't this completely prove that Xie Yanwen killed Xiao Liang?
The murderer?"
Looking at Liu Manman who was gnashing his teeth, Cheng Yu sighed, thinking that care really makes things chaotic. Liu Manman, who was usually so meticulous, was now scurrying around like a headless fly.
"Yes, that's what I thought at first."
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm going to find Xie Yanwen..."
Cheng Yu grabbed Liu Manman and said, "Don't worry, listen to me."
Liu Manman looked at Cheng Yu angrily, wondering what other tricks you could come up with.
"I had the same idea as you at the time. I can even imagine that Xie Yanwen used this thin wire to make some kind of mechanism. You should also have discovered that this thin wire has good elasticity. If
By fixing both ends, it can actually be used as a string for a bow and arrow. I speculate that Xie Yanwen used this thin thread to make a mechanism with a thin needle coated with some kind of coma-inducing drug. Deng Jingliang has no doubt that
He was hit, and then Xie Yanwen dragged him from here to his room, so these marks were left on the ground. So I thought, if everything was like this, how could Xie Yanwen defend himself? He was the only one in the villa at that time.
And Deng Jingliang, if Deng Jingliang died, wouldn’t he be the murderer?”
Liu Manman finally understood what Cheng Yu was going to say. There was no need for Cheng Yu to continue talking about the following words. With Liu Manman's intelligence, how could she not have thought of it?
"So, Guo Ping'an and Su Xi may also be the murderers."
