Dong Xie slowly walked to the pot and looked inside... there was a steamed bun that had gone rancid.
"This house should be He Lian's residence during his lifetime. However, there are no clues yet."
After Dong Xie looked up and down, he looked at the screen of the mobile phone in his hand.
The flip phone they picked up strangely still had power, and it contained text message records between him, his daughter, and his future son-in-law.
The daughter of the owner of the mobile phone was Ding Yi, a dentist who died before the outbreak of the infectious disease. In the text message, Ding Yi mentioned that the son of the director of Blackwater Hospital, who had been missing for three years, had returned.
This incident attracted the attention of Dong Xie and others.
Therefore, both Dong Xie and Han Lei believed that this was probably closely related to the Scarlet Letter mission.
The text messages that followed were mostly daily greetings. Until according to news reports, one month before Ding Yi passed away...
"Xiaoyi, that's it. He Lian told me that a strange thing happened when you were on night shift in the hospital last time. What on earth is going on?"
Ding Yi quickly replied: "Don't listen to his nonsense, Dad, there is no such thing."
This……
Astonishingly, it was Ding Yi’s last text message record with his father.
Then, wanting to know what happened that night, Dong Xie opened the text message records between Ding Yi's father and He Lian. He wanted to find clues from them.
Most of the conversations between He Lian and his future father-in-law revolved around Ding Yi, and Xie Xun was hardly mentioned. It was not until a month before Ding Yi's death that the most critical text message was finally found.
"Uncle, although Xiaoyi didn't let me say it, I thought about it and decided to tell you."
The following text was written at the end of the text message: "Xiao Yi told me that she heard strange noises coming from the morgue at night. She thought it was strange at the time, so she went to check. Then, she was at the door of the morgue and saw something inside.
A figure was projected on the wall, which scared her so much that she ran away. Later, she found other people, but there was nothing unusual in the morgue, and no intruders were found. She seemed very frightened, and I was still a little worried.
"
When Dong Xie saw this text message record, he remembered the morgue they had entered, and it reminded them of the horrific experience they had at that time.
Ding Yi's father's reply was: "No, Xiao Yi didn't tell me anything! This kind of thing actually happened!"
"At first I thought it might be a thief, but it was strange why the thief went to the morgue. That night, there was a failed surgical operation. The patient died on the operating table and was then sent to the morgue.
Go to the morgue. This matter scares Xiaoyi very much."
"It's a bit scary, but Xiao Yi is studying medicine after all, so she shouldn't be too scared."
"That operation was the first time that Dr. Xie Xun failed to save the patient's life on the operating table. The patient's family even came to the hospital to make a fuss about it. So the hospital was also in a difficult position."
"There seems to be a lot of things going on in the hospital recently. You two should get married as soon as possible, He Lian."
However... just one month later, Ding Yi passed away.
On the night of Ding Yi's death, there were many phone calls between Ding Yi's father and He Lian. It was obvious that the two of them were searching for Ding Yi on the island and communicating with each other. In contrast, there is no text message record. After all, his daughter died.
After that, He Lian and Ding's father mostly talked in person or called to comfort him.
There are actually not many text message records. Most of them express condolences for the death of their daughter and their inability to understand who the murderer is.
The available information is: the night Ding Yi died, she did not go home after leaving the hospital, and the last person who saw her was a nurse in the hospital.
And after that... there was no more sighting information.
When she died, she was far away from the hospital. There was even a question as to whether the place where the body was found was the scene of the first crime. The murder weapon was never found, and no one with a motive for the murder was found.
But from the text message records, a very key clue was found, that is... He Lian's specific home address. This was mentioned voluntarily in the text message records between He Lian and Ding's father.
Following the house number, they discovered that He Lian's house was nearby, so they found this place.
"Then, let's give it a try."
After walking out of the kitchen, Dong Xie and others had already searched the first floor. Then, he said these words.
Lian Zixin was stunned and asked: "Try? What to try?"
Then, Dong Xie took his cell phone and started... to dial He Lian's cell phone number.
Ding's father's mobile phone is still strangely charged, so He Lian's mobile phone is likely to be the same.
However, although Dong Xie could hear the dialing ringtone, no one answered the call after a long time.
"No one answered the phone?" Han Lei looked somewhat disappointed: "If we can find He Lian's cell phone, we should be able to find more clues."
Dong Xie also nodded and said, "I think so too."
At this time, they looked towards the stairs to the side.
"Why don't you go to the second floor and take a look first?"
"Um."
The first floor is in a mess, and they have been searched roughly, but no clues have been found. For now, we have to go upstairs and take a look.
Han Lei and Dong Xie walked in the front, while the others followed behind.
When he walked to the stairs, Dong Xie felt that the surrounding light had become much darker. He stepped on the stairs and felt a "crunch" and "crunch" sound.
During this process, both Dong Xie and Han Lei felt uneasy. Not long after, the two of them had already reached the second floor.
What came face to face was a poster for "Meteor Garden", which was the young F4 back then.
"This poster is really nostalgic." After walking up, Li Chong looked at the poster in front of him and said.
"Yeah." Dong Xie walked up to the poster. Although he knew that it probably had nothing to do with the Scarlet Letter mission, it didn't matter if he just took a look at it.
But not long after he walked to the poster, the corner of the poster close to Zhou Yimin suddenly fell off automatically! The corner that fell off was quite large, and it basically covered Zhou Yimin's entire face.
Dong Xie quickly took several steps back, but he bumped directly into Lian Zixin behind him.
"This this?"
Han Lei's performance was much better than Dong Xie's. He clenched his fists and said, "Don't be afraid yet! Maybe it's a reminder?"
"Hint?" Lian Zixin paid attention to the poster in front of him, but couldn't see anything for a while.
"I remembered." Dong Xie suddenly said at this time: "I remember the communication record between Ding Yi's father and He Lian said that Ding Yi's favorite actors are Yan Chengxu and Zhou Yimin. So He Lian posted the poster here.
"
Han Lei plucked up the courage, walked up and took another look, but no matter how he looked at it, it was just an ordinary stills poster, and there was nothing unusual about it. After all, he had watched Ji Yu die in front of him, so now he
He didn't dare to get too close. Even if a hand stretched out from the poster to pull him in, he wouldn't feel strange. After looking at it for a while, he quickly moved away from the poster.
Looking at the poster that suddenly lost a corner in front of them, every resident was ready to escape at any time. Everyone remembered Ji Yu's death clearly. If the evil spirit really tried to kill people, the residents would have no idea at all.
Solution. You only have one life, and it is impossible to load it and start over.
Han Lei quickly made a decision: "Let's search other areas on the second floor first. Everyone should follow me closely. If something happens, they will escape immediately."
Everyone agreed. With Han Lei's words, everyone finally had a backbone. And no matter what, Han Lei always charged forward. If he died, he would definitely be the first to die, so everyone gradually stopped talking about it.
Terrified.
Next to the stairs is a door that is ajar.
Han Lei slowly walked up, slowly pressed his hand on the door, and pushed...
Inside, is a study room.
In the study room, there is a bookshelf, and next to the bookshelf is a writing desk.
During the execution of the Scarlet Letter, when entering a room, someone must be guarding the door outside to allow residents to enter and explore.
"I'll do it." Lian Zixin felt that Han Lei couldn't bear the burden of everything, so he volunteered.
"I'll go in with you!"
Dong Xie said this in a firm tone, and then, while others were guarding the door, he and Lian Zixin walked into the study!
