Back at the villa, Old London naturally "rolled" to the back of the house and entered through its own small door.
Cheng Yu, on the other hand, stood in the fountain pool and examined it carefully. Although it had been washed, the edge of the fountain pool was paved with cement mixed with pebbles the size of a little fingernail, so the surface was bumpy and uneven.
Therefore, there are still some traces of blood mixed in.
However, even if this blood stain is noticed by someone, unless technological means are used, if you just look at it with your eyes, you may not think that it is blood stain, and most likely think that it is those pebbles that have changed over time.
The color.
After walking up the steps and opening the door, Cheng Yu was surprised to see Liu Manman sitting by the fireplace in the hall, pouring himself a drink.
In addition to a decanter, which contained about half a bottle of red wine, there were also some ham and cheese snacks on the table to accompany the wine.
"Sister Manman really knows how to enjoy it..." Cheng Yu walked over with a smile.
Liu Manman rolled her eyes, and her long legs crossed as if they were tired, she quickly changed her position, and Cheng Yu was right in front of her, so she could not help but see something similar to Liu Manman's.
The dresses are different colors.
Cheng Yu felt a headache coming on. He wouldn't believe it to his death if this crazy woman didn't do it on purpose.
"Don't try that trick with me. You clearly know that I'm waiting for you, right?"
Cheng Yu sat down on the sofa next to Liu Manman, took the empty wine glass that Liu Manman had obviously prepared, and poured himself a glass of red wine.
"Wait for me? There shouldn't be anything else that needs to be discussed today, right?"
"Is it possible that you came to this island just to investigate who died? Can't you just relax and have a casual chat?" Liu Manman lazily tilted the wine glass in his hand at a forty-five-degree angle and raised it to Cheng Yu's
In front of her, Cheng Yu gently touched her with his own wine glass. The extremely thin rims of the glasses collided with each other, making a particularly crisp sound.
Taking a sip of red wine, Cheng Yu thought to himself that you are really right. I came to this island really just to investigate who died and who was killed. If it weren't for that damn mission, I wouldn't have appeared on this island at all.
island.
There was no way to tell Liu Manman this, so Cheng Yu said: "I thought everyone had been busy all day today and was really exhausted mentally and physically. After returning home, they all just wanted to have a good rest, but I didn't expect..."
"Didn't you run out yourself? Did you go to see Old London to talk about something?"
Regarding this question, Cheng Yu has already thought of the answer. There is no way. If he and Old London go out to chat privately, it will undoubtedly attract the attention of others. Therefore, Cheng Yu must prepare an excuse in advance.
"Some things about Old London and Shi Lei, but it's not convenient to tell you now. I promised Old London that the conversation between us tonight will have to wait until your competition because it involves some rules.
I can tell you about it only after it’s over. To put it bluntly, in order to increase my chances of survival and prevent anyone from getting jealous and attacking me, I discussed it with Old London in advance to avoid such a situation as much as possible."
Liu Manman did not comment on Cheng Yu's words, shaking the wine glass with blurred eyes, and the high heels on her feet swayed up and down with the ups and downs of her calves. Every time, they almost fell out, but when her calves fell down,
Return to your toes.
"Really? Although it makes sense, it still feels a bit far-fetched."
Cheng Yu smiled and said: "Don't you think the situation on the island is a little out of control? Everyone seems to be a little crazy now. Xie Yanwen wants to kill someone, Su Xi has already killed someone, and Deng Jingliang also wants to kill someone..."
Liu Manman interrupted Cheng Yu, lowered her voice and said, "Don't say that about Xiaoliang..."
Cheng Yu sighed inwardly, thinking that you still wanted to defend him, but he held back on you.
"What's the point of not saying it? The performance is there, I think you should also be aware of it. At present, you are the only one who makes me feel that there is no murderous intention. But in fact, you are just too arrogant, you
You don't look down on other people at all and don't take them seriously. You
I don’t think anyone can kill you at all. That’s why you didn’t show murderous intent. Even Guo Ping’an, in fact, I see that when he looks at other people, he often uses a sizing gesture. He is thinking about it.
How can we do things silently and without leaving a trace?"
I thought that Liu Manman's verdict would be refuted by her, but I didn't expect that she nodded and admitted it frankly.
"I'm arrogant. It's true. People who know me well say that about me, and you actually see it. God, you really have the ability to see into people's hearts. Are you writers so observant?
Of course it's okay for others to say I'm arrogant, but at least I tore all my self-esteem to pieces in front of you and threw it to the ground, tossing and turning over what I wanted."
"That's just another form of arrogance. Once I succumb to your... well, how should I say, temptation? No, no, straight fishing? It doesn't seem to be accurate. Forget it, don't worry about the precise definition.
, in short, if I really cross that line with you, I'm afraid your attitude towards me will be the same as towards others."
"Giggle..." Liu Manman laughed suddenly, her shoulders shaking with laughter, and even her chest suddenly appeared, white and dazzling.
"Are you worrying about gains and losses?" As he spoke, Liu Manman leaned in the direction of Cheng Yu, getting very close, wishing that the hot breath from his mouth could ripple on Cheng Yu's face, "I'm afraid that after a spring breeze, you will
You can’t get it anymore, so you can only choose to refuse coldly?”
Cheng Yu felt really helpless. He inserted the wine glass in his hand horizontally, blocking all Liu Manman's attacks like a shield. Then he sighed and said, "You can interpret it however you want, I just haven't thought about it."
I want to cross any line with you. Not just you, anyone
Everyone is the same, I said, I have a wife, I also have moral values. After drinking this drink, go up early, and save the trouble. The three above have always been vigilant about the outside world. I hope you can spend tonight safely,
Three people are already dead, and I don’t know when they will be dead..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Liu Manman laughed, drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, and said: "Master, what you said is not accurate. There are only two people who are sure. Xie Yanwen can only say that life or death is uncertain.
Although I also tend to believe that he is dead. However, if it was Old London who told you, that would be a different matter."
Cheng Yu waved his hand and said, "Old London didn't say anything. It wasn't even there at the time, so there's no reason to know anything."
Liu Manman poured herself another glass of wine and continued to shake it in her hand, watching the red wine swirling back and forth on the wall of the glass, like dancing a waltz.
"So, you don't have anything to tell me?" Liu Manman asked casually.
Cheng Yu shook his head and said, "No. But on the way back, I thought about the crazy situation now, and I remembered the question I asked you before."
"What's the problem?"
"About the ending."
Liu Manman thought for a while and said: "Is it because there are fewer and fewer people now? If Xie Yanwen is also dead, someone might have an accident tonight. When I open my eyes tomorrow, if there are only three people left, and
Xiaoliang and I are still here, so as long as we find a way to get rid of old London, we can be unscrupulous
?Furthermore, those two people obviously pinned their hopes of escaping this broken island on the submarine. No matter which one of them died, the remaining one would still insist on going to the beach, but he just didn't dare to follow.
If you become a companion with anyone, then it doesn’t seem that difficult to kill that person.”
What Cheng Yu wanted to say was actually to use that question to remind Liu Manman to be careful about Deng Jingliang. At least from the information Cheng Yu got, Deng Jingliang was not that worthy of Liu Manman's trust. Unexpectedly, Liu Manman would show such
A big set.
"Especially since I also have a stun gun. A stun gun that can kill an elephant. Guo Ping'an shouldn't be more difficult to deal with than an elephant, right? By then, only Xiaoliang and I will be left. Haha, siblings work together,
Qiqidujin, do you think the two of us can get the submarine and leave this broken island safely? Or, in the end, between the two of us...then my advantage is quite big, what do you think?"
Cheng Yu blinked slightly, and he suddenly realized that Liu Manman seemed to have emphasized twice that she also believed that Xie Yanwen was dead. Does this mean that she did not believe Deng Jingliang's words? Even her memory had been modified by Old London and she had completely forgotten it.
She forgot about the conversation she and Cheng Yu had with Old London, forgot that Deng Jingliang returned to the villa before four o'clock, and forgot that Deng Jingliang also had murderous intentions for Xie Yanwen.
So, although Liu Manman trusted his cousin, he actually kept it secret?
Or maybe it means that when there was no trace of Xie Yanwen, Liu Manman began to have reservations about Deng Jingliang?
It's no wonder, after all, people's hearts are so different from each other, Deng Jingliang's rhetoric is inherently true and false. Even if everything he says is true, who can completely believe it? Even if that person is his cousin.
At least, it will make people suspicious - "If Deng Jingliang also lied to me, then he also has thoughts about me. You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others, so I at least
You have to be careful."
Cheng Yu nodded to himself. This was probably Liu Manman's current mentality.
In this case, Cheng Yu had nothing more to say. After all, except for why Old London wanted to modify the memories of Deng Jingliang and Liu Manman, telling her would not help. It would only make the situation more complicated. And the rest
The ones I wrote down were actually more to satisfy Cheng Yu's own need for verification. He just wanted to find out which of these three cases of murder or accidental death were correct in his judgment and reasoning, and where he had made mistakes.
That's all.
This process is actually more like checking and filling in the gaps, and these actually have little to do with Liu Manman, so there is no need for Cheng Yu to explain it clearly to her.
But Cheng Yu knew that he didn't say anything, which obviously made Liu Manman a little wary of him.
At least not as trusting as before, right?
But who can guarantee that Liu Manman really trusted him unreservedly before this?
"Would you like to go up together?" Cheng Yu asked Liu Manman after finishing the wine in the cup, placing the cup on the coffee table.
Liu Manman shook his head, his eyes were blurry, and he replied lazily and sexyly: "You go up first, and I will sit down for a while. Don't worry, I will go back to the house before recharging in Old London."
Cheng Yu nodded and walked towards the stairs.
Still checking the mark left on the door of his house, Cheng Yu swiped his card to enter the house after confirming it was complete.
As soon as the door was closed, Cheng Yu quickly walked towards the door to the terrace. He had to figure out what Old London said about the device that could act as a fixed pulley.
Standing under the door, Cheng Yu looked up, but there was only a slide rail for hanging curtains above the door frame, and it was a recessed slide rail, and there was nothing that could act as a fixed pulley.
Cheng Yu felt very puzzled and carefully checked around the door frame, but found nothing.
But he soon saw the curtains and reacted immediately.
Pulling the curtain, Cheng Yu looked up again. This time, he saw the hook on the curtain, which allowed the curtain to be hung on the sliding ring embedded in the slide rail.
And that lifting ring is undoubtedly something that can be used as a fixed pulley.
Of course, this fixed pulley can move left and right, so when the curtain was fully opened and retracted into the corner, Cheng Yu was completely unaware of this.
But after searching now, Cheng Yu pulled the curtain over and naturally found the sliding ring. As long as the curtain was pulled to the crescent lock position, the sliding ring in the slide rail above the curtain could be
Used as a fixed pulley
.Furthermore, this fixed pulley is easier to use than a real fixed pulley because it can slide left and right. Although this will create some instability in the locking process, when the wire is recovered, the sliding characteristics will make it worse.
The murderer's actions became easier.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! At this point, the mystery of the secret room has been completely revealed. If there is a need to confront Su Xi, Cheng Yu at least will not be questioned because he does not know how to lock the door.
While taking a shower, Cheng Yu was thinking that one more person should have died tonight, but considering that there had been an accident during the day and Xie Yanwen died without killing him, he didn't know whether the remaining people would take advantage of Xie Yanwen's death.
With his life and death unknown, he decided to kill him and tried to blame Xie Yanwen, or he just stopped all activities overnight.
Although with Xie Yanwen's strength, the possibility of returning to the villa to kill other people is extremely low, but it will be a sharp sword hanging over everyone's head anyway. At least no one can completely rule out this possibility.
.
Whether or not to take advantage of Xie Yanwen's uncertain life or death depends entirely on what the remaining four people think.
To be honest, Cheng Yu thought that Su Xi and Guo Ping'an would not take action for the time being, and Liu Manman was originally the one with the most murderous intention among all the people, but this Deng Jingliang, he is probably murderous now.
when.
Although his memory has been modified, the things in his bones have not changed.
It was as if he clearly knew that Xie Yanwen was dead, but he still acted like he had to take revenge and kill him quickly. He didn't know it was to confuse someone. For this reason, he even took advantage of Cheng Yu.
The so-called thanks.
Moreover, wasn't he concealing Xie Yanwen's death just to cover for his next attack?
Therefore, Deng Jingliang is now a time bomb that may strike at any time. Moreover, even Liu Manman, who must be safe, is actually not that safe now.
However, to Cheng Yu, these people are just a bunch of data after all, so although he can be a little intolerant, he will not try to stop anyone. As long as he can solve the hidden dangers on the island before people die, Cheng Yu will
You can complete the mission and leave this island and this virtual space.
But until now, although Cheng Yu figured out why Old London risked the world's disapproval to modify the memories of Deng Jingliang and Liu Manman, it did not help him much in finding hidden dangers on the island.
At best, Cheng Yu was completely sure that the murderer voted for by everyone would be sentenced to death by Old London. But now that the number of people was getting smaller and smaller, the possibility of forcibly pushing someone to death due to vote control also greatly increased.
Cheng Yu found that he still missed one issue, and that was whether he had the right to vote when accusing the murderer. And this point is actually very important.
After blow-drying his hair, Cheng Yu lay on the bed, thinking about everything that had happened in the past three days, including Chen Yu's gentle appearance, Bai Xiaowen's big, harmless eyes, and his gloomy face all day long.
Xie Yanwen, who refused to communicate with the world, was just data, but at least they had lived in front of Cheng Yu, and now, they have completely ended their mission.
Although it was like watching a movie in his mind, Cheng Yu finally slowly lowered his eyelids and fell into a deep sleep.
It was already early nine o'clock when I woke up. This was the longest sleep Cheng Yu had ever had since coming to this island, and it was extremely solid.
Jumping up from the bed, Cheng Yu washed up briefly, put on the meticulous three-piece suit, opened the door and marked it, and then went downstairs.
In the restaurant, what was surprising, but very friendly to Cheng Yu, was that four people were there.
It seems that last night really became the first Christmas Eve on the island, and no one died.
"Good morning everyone."
"Master, I got up a little late today." Su Xi smiled faintly at Cheng Yu. After a night's rest, it seemed that she had returned to her intellectual and rational self.
However, in Cheng Yu's eyes, Su Xi already had another face.
This is a woman who is not sure whether she is gay or bi. She may be intellectual and rational, but there is also something that can be called crazy in her heart. Her reason for killing Bai Xiaowen may not be what she wants to show.
Of course, Cheng Yu wouldn't reveal anything, he just walked to the dining table and looked at the various foods on the dining table.
"Yes, maybe I walked too much yesterday and was really tired. It was already past nine o'clock when I opened my eyes."
