"How did it end up like this..." Feng Bujue said to himself in the darkness: "At this moment, I should be like an outsider and enjoy myself..." He sighed.
: "Hey... It seems that an outstanding man like me, no matter where he hides, will be as bright and outstanding as a firefly in the dark... The melancholy eyes, the sighing beard, and the miraculous skills are all deeply felt.
The land betrayed me.// //**”
He was amusing himself and reciting this sentence happily. Because the surroundings were dark (limited vision makes the hearing more sensitive), and it was a closed and open environment (the sound would travel farther), Jue Ge's
The words were spoken word by word and reached the ears of the three teammates in the distance.
"Such a shameless person... I really have never seen him before." Qiu Feng lowered his voice and commented.
"The fact that he can still talk about this in such a situation as if nothing happened..." said the chief accountant, "can be regarded as a sign of strong psychological quality."
Honghu continued: "It's hard to guess..." He said, trembling involuntarily, and then adjusted his glasses: "He may be the kind of opponent I least want to meet..."
"Same feeling." Qiu Feng responded: "It's hard to imagine what would happen if there was such a guy on the opposite side in a killing game."
On this point, the three counselors had the same idea, and the chief also said: "If he is not a teammate, but an opponent, it is indeed a very bad thing... Have you noticed? Whether it is actions or strategies
, the crazy brother’s tricks all seem to be unorganized, but in fact there are hidden secrets... Thinking back, everything he did played a role to a greater or lesser extent. Of course... his unique
Except for the sense of humor.”
"Conspirators use clever tricks to make tricks; conspirators take advantage of the situation." Honghu mused: "The former is an evil way. Usually when the strength is not enough, they use clever tricks to make up for the gap. Even if they succeed, it will only have a temporary effect.
, and there are many loopholes. Once seen through, it is easy to resolve; and the latter is the king's way, which follows the trend and leaves no trace. It is the king of conspiracy and is unstoppable." He paused and continued: "It stands to reason that we are like this
All resourceful players pursue the latter, but crazy brother..."
"It seems that I have gone further and further down the evil path..." Qiu Feng continued.
Honghu said: "People who can plot conspiracies are very smart, and people who can plot evil schemes are very powerful. But if someone can guarantee that every plot he plots will be successful, then he can be called a miraculous mastermind."
"Haha... If in the world of Three Kingdoms novels, the crazy brother would probably be the kind... who puts strategies in his bag and asks the generals to open one and follow them wherever they go, in order to show that he knows what will happen.
God's military advisor." Qiu Feng said.
The three of them were discussing Brother Jue secretly. Because they were all squatting on the edge of the circular hole, as long as they lowered their voices and faced downwards, the sound of their voices would not spread too far around. Therefore, these conversations... Feng Bujue could not
I didn't hear a word. If Brother Jue really heard it, he would probably feel proud instead of ashamed, and become more and more arrogant...
About ten minutes later, Feng Bujue returned to his teammates unhurriedly. Looking at his expression, he seemed to be a little worried.
"It looks like there's nothing to gain." Qiu Feng said.
"Haha..." the chief laughed and said, "Actually, it's a harvest that Crazy Brother can come back unscathed. At least he proved that there is no danger on this level for the time being."
"Next, the four of us will divide into two groups and explore carefully again. We should be able to find some clues..." Honghu hadn't finished his sentence yet.
Feng Bujue interrupted directly: "I found a corpse in that direction." He said and pointed into the darkness.
These words were like a basin of cold water poured on the heads of my teammates in winter.
The atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point, and everyone was silent.
Feng Bujue continued: "To be precise, I found a fairly complete crime scene."
The three of them were still silent, wanting to hear him finish what he said before expressing his opinion.
"Then..." Feng Bujue's words indeed had a continuation. "I was in that direction again..." He pointed to the other side: "I found the bodies of the murderers."
"They?" Qiu Feng repeated: "The murderer...is also 'them'?"
"Yes, according to my preliminary investigation of the scene, it is presumed that there were four murderers working together to commit the crime." Feng Bujue said.
"And the four murderers died near the crime scene?" Honghu interjected and asked.
"No, only two died." Feng Bujue said, "Two more escaped to the fourth floor."
"What? Did you find the passage to the fourth floor?" asked the comptroller.
"Yes, there is a spiral staircase over there." Feng Bujue pointed to a third direction, "The two surviving murderers left traces when they walked up the stairs, which is easy to judge." He turned his head:
"It wouldn't be appropriate to catch up rashly, so I decided to come back first and share the information with you."
After he said this, his teammates fell into deep thought again.
About a minute later, Feng Bujue said: "Okay, now you should have a preliminary idea of the situation. Come with me, I will take you to see the scene in order."
The four words "in order" in his words are very important. The other three people understood it as soon as they heard it. In fact, the order in which Feng Bujue discovered the three locations was not necessarily in the order he described, but he had already discovered it through observation.
, we have clarified the sequence of things, so we will talk about it in the order of "the first murder scene, the second murder scene, and the passage to the fourth floor."
The three of them followed Feng Bujue and walked all the way to a corner on the third floor. When they were walking halfway, they smelled an unpleasant smell, which must have been the smell of corpses.
Not long after, they used the light of a flashlight to see a body lying flat on the floor tiles.
The deceased...let's put it this way, was a witch.
She was wearing black coarse cloth, and her cloak was in tatters, dirty and smelly. Her face was extremely ugly, with a huge aquiline nose in the middle, and a protruding, flowing nose on the tip of her nose and on her chin.
The pimples were covered with pus, the dense wrinkles were as clear as scars, and a pair of bulging eyes remained unblinking.
Of course, if you think that her iconic clothing and appearance cannot prove that she is a witch, then... there were also a hat, a broom and an apple dropped beside the corpse.
The hat is a black pointed wide-brimmed hat; the broom is made of wood, the type that Mr. Potter often rides; and the apples are bright red, plump, and look like they have just been picked from the tree.
"Let me tell you, there are two fatal wounds in total." Feng Bujue said, squatting next to the corpse, facing the dead body that exuded a strange smell, and explained without any pressure: "And both of them are obvious.
of."
He stretched out the flashlight and focused the light on the witch's head. It was visible under the light. The skull of the corpse had been opened, the brains and blood were flowing on the ground, and the brain in the head was missing.
"The first place is on the head. Someone used a sharp weapon to blow her head off along the hairline." Feng Bujue said: "As for the whereabouts of the brain... you will understand in a moment.
of."
Looking at Feng Bujue's understatement and his demeanor as if he had experienced many battles, the three teammates were all in awe.
"The second place is the chest." Feng Bujue moved the flashlight light downwards and shined it on the witch's torso.
The witch had been disembowelled, her ribs were split open on both sides, and her internal organs were all exposed to the air.
"The heart and gallbladder were removed." Feng Bujue said. "Other organs were damaged to varying degrees, but at least they are still in the body."
"So...how did you figure out...that there were four murderers?" Qiu Feng asked.
"Oh, the clue is very obvious." Feng Bujue stood up. "First of all, there is no doubt that this is a witch." As he said, he picked up the flashlight and shined it on a wall only two meters away from the body.
go.
The three teammates all looked surprised at this moment because there was a line of blood writing on the wall.
This line of text is in English, and there is also a translation in the system menu, which reads:
"Secondly, this is the reminder." Feng Bujue continued.
"Hey...could this be..." The chief had already understood, but the other two seemed still a little confused.
"That's right. This is Dorothy's line at the end of "The Wizard of Oz."" Feng Bujue shined the flashlight on the old witch's feet again: "Look, she has no shoes on her feet. This is proof.
Bar."
"Are you kidding..." This time, Qiu Feng and Hong Hu also realized who the "four murderers" Feng Bujue mentioned were.
"Yeah, this puzzle is as simple as a joke." Feng Bujue illuminated the corpse and explained: "It's nothing more than the foursome subduing the witch together, and then the lion tore her torso open and took away the inside.
'Courage', the Tin Woodman took away the 'heart', and then used an ax to split open the witch's cap, allowing the Scarecrow to take away the 'brain'. As for Dorothy, he took away the witch's magic shoes." He said in a tone of voice.
Very relaxed, he also said to the writing on the wall by the way: "Nine out of ten people who write on the wall at a crime scene are idiots who make unnecessary mistakes, and one is a genius." He pursed his lips and shook his head:
"But this line of writing is very confusing to me." He looked at his teammates with questioning eyes: "What do you think?"
"My opinion is...are you too calm?" Qiu Feng said: "I said 'you are joking' because the situation in front of you is ruining your childhood!"
"Oh...that's what you mean." Feng Bujue said, "Unfortunately, I despised this kind of children's literature when I was a child, even though I have read a lot..."
"Artists are indeed a little abnormal..." Honghu complained coldly, and then brought the topic back on track: "About this line of blood words... I think there are two possibilities." He paused and continued:
"First, the murderer has nothing to do with the foursome from the Wizard of Oz. This line of text was left by the real murderer to mislead us; second, assuming that it was really Dorothy and her group who killed the witch...then this line of text may be part of the system
Hints given, not written by anyone.”
"Hmm... It's almost the same as my initial hypothesis." Feng Bujue nodded: "Okay, let's go to the second location." He shined the flashlight on the body again and said: "Oh, by the way, there is no need to guarantee it now.
The site is complete, take away everything you can, maybe it will be useful."
So, except for Feng Bujue, each of the three people picked up an item.
Honghu wanted to hold a flashlight in one hand, so he picked up the smallest apple; Qiu Feng took the broom at Jue Ge's suggestion (when Qiu Feng asked for the reason, Feng Bujue answered - Qiu Feng swept the fallen leaves); the accountant took it away
Witch's wide-brimmed hat.

The descriptions of these three items adhere to the overall style of this script...that is, I won't give you clear tips. It's up to you to figure out how to use the things. Anyway, the penultimate item cannot be taken out of the script if it is written, which proves that they
Eighty percent of them are useful.
"Look at these bloody footprints..." Feng Bujue led his teammates towards the second crime scene. He also used a flashlight to shine on the marks on the marble floor tiles: "The most obvious ones are the lion's footprints, followed by the iron ones.
"Human." He pointed with his finger: "The lighter shoe prints are those of the Scarecrow, and the remaining two rows of small footprints are naturally left by Dorothy."
They walked along the wall, and while they were talking, they came to the second burial place, which was only about a hundred meters away from the place where the witch died.
"What's going on..." Qiu Feng said.
This time, two corpses appeared in front of me, one was a little girl wearing a blue dress and shirt, and the other was a huge lion.
Feng Bujue acted like a commentator again, walking forward and talking with great interest: "Dorothy was probably killed by a lion." He shined a flashlight at the head of the corpse: "The side of the neck
A large piece of it was bitten off, even the bones and flesh were torn off, and the face was clawed open like a horror movie protagonist."
He turned his head and pointed at a pair of silver high heels scattered beside Dorothy's body: "These should be the witch's shoes. It seems that she did not put on these shoes immediately after killing the witch, but just carried them with her.
gone."
"Wait a minute..." said the Controller: "How do I remember... in "The Wizard of Oz", the magic shoes of the Eastern Witch are red?"
"This is a common misunderstanding." Feng Bujue replied: "Actually, in Lyman Frank Baum's original work, the shoes were silver. But because the 1939 movie version of "The Wizard of Oz" is very classic,
So much so that most subsequent film and television adaptations were influenced by it and set the witch's shoes in red."
"You even know this kind of thing..." Even Honghu expressed his amazement at Feng Bujue's breadth of knowledge.
"This is common sense." Feng Bujue replied.
"What common sense... If you hadn't told me just now, I wouldn't have known who the author of The Wizard of Oz was..." Qiu Feng said bluntly.
"Then I have no choice. Anyway, this is common sense to me." Feng Bujue came to the lion's body again: "Let's take a look at this guy again."
"Obviously it was killed by an axe," Honghu said, looking at the lion's body. "And judging from the angle, depth of the wounds, and the blood stains on the ground, it had a fight with the person holding the axe before it died.
fight."
The Comptroller continued: "Judging from the injuries alone...there is no doubt that the lion killed Dorothy, and the Tin Woodman killed the lion."
"It should be said that the Tin Man and the Scarecrow killed the lion together." Feng Bujue added, "Look..." He squatted down, put the flashlight on the ground, put his arms around the lion's head, and opened the beast.
His big mouth. "Did you see the straw in his mouth?"
"Okay... don't be so serious..." Qiu Feng advised.
Feng Bujue closed the lion's mouth and patted the mane stained on his clothes, but his hand was stained with blood. He didn't pay too much attention, just stood up and said: "However, I don't think the scarecrow's power can deal with it at all."
What impact did the lion have? Even if he participated in the attack, he could only cause scratchy damage. In fact, it was the Tin Woodman who killed the lion."
"There is also a message here..." When Honghu spoke, the flashlight in his hand was already shining in the direction of the wall.
There are also bloody words on the walls here.
"Ah, that's right." Feng Bujue responded: "It's also a very directional hint."
The three people except Brother Jue stared at this line of text for a long time, and it was the Chief who spoke first: "Leaving aside the possible philosophical meaning of this sentence...the metaphor should be..." He paused slightly.
After a second, he continued: "The lion gained courage, so he wanted to eat Dorothy. The Tin Woodman with a conscience and the Scarecrow with a brain, after seeing this, made the lion
Killed."
"On the surface...it is true." Honghu continued.
"Oh? On the surface?" the comptroller asked doubtfully.
Qiu Feng was also thinking: "If you think about it carefully... there are indeed many doubts."
"For example?" the comptroller asked.
Honghu replied: "If the lion did not have the courage to attack people before gaining courage, how do you explain the death of the old witch?" He pushed up his glasses: "Also, since Dorothy got the witch's shoes, why didn't she
Put it on and leave, these shoes have the magic of teleportation, don't they?"
Feng Bujue said again: "Well... Let's put these questions aside for now." He said, bending down to pick up the pair of silver magic shoes: "Let's follow me to the stairs leading to the fourth floor first.
