i must be in hell

"Here it is."

A waiter opened the door. "We didn't touch Yang Yun's room at will."

Xu Shangyu stepped into the house, Ning Xiao and other criminal policemen followed behind him.

"No, you don't need to come in." Xu Shangyu said to Zhao Yun and the others who were following him: "Leave this place to me and Ning Xiao, you go to other places to search."

"Yes!"

The criminal police obeyed their orders, and the waiter who opened the door for them also signaled to leave.

In this room, only Ning Xiao and Xu Shangyu were left.

At this time, two full hours had passed since the police announced their official involvement in the case of Su Li's murder.Vehicles and manpower from the police force surrounded the entire guild hall. According to Xu Shangyu's request, even a single mouse could not be let out.

"So, can we talk now?"

Xu Shangyu walked to the window and pushed it open, a gust of sunlight mixed with the smell of dust floated in.

"You have been depressed for a few minutes, what are you thinking?" Xu Shangyu leaned against the window and looked at him. "Don't tell me you're still thinking about that guy Heye."

"Actually..." Ning Xiao held the phone and looked away from the screen. "I suddenly remembered that the day after tomorrow is my deadline, but I haven't written a single word yet." Ning Xiao didn't realize that he was still a novel writer until he saw the reminder text message sent by the editor just now, but he almost devoted all of his work to writing. Forget it.

Xu Shangyu was taken aback for a moment, then laughed out loud. "This is really unfortunate news, so how are you going to make up for it?"

"End this case before the day after tomorrow, and then go back and have a good sleep." Ning Xiao said.

"What about novels?"

"...I'll talk about it later." Ning Xiao rubbed his temples, and said evasively.

Xu Shangyu couldn't help laughing. "Whenever I think you are not a human being, you always pull yourself off the altar in the fastest way, Ning Xiao. Since you want to end the case within two days, you have thought about how to deal with this situation Already?"

Ning Xiao put away the phone. "Indeed, this is a well-arranged game, but I also have an inherent advantage."

"Oh?"

"If Heye really wants to play his pretend game, then every case he promotes must have a prototype. As the creator of the prototype, no one is more familiar with it than me," Ning Xiao said. : "Of course, Heye will definitely not copy my original case intact, but, no matter what, the central idea of ​​the case will not change."

Xu Shangyu's expression became serious. "Then you have already found the prototype?"

Ning Xiao walked past him and came to the desk.

"The first case of Timor's appearance." He caressed the tabletop, feeling its roughness. "A lady in the manor was found tragically dead in the garden by a servant with disheveled clothes. In order to cover up the scandal, the owner of the manor decided to hide the news of his daughter's death and announced that her daughter had eloped with someone. Unfortunately, Timor was Fabricated as an elopement object, because the lady who died tragically was his admirer."

"What a poor detective." Xu Shangyu commented. "So, in the end, did Mr. Detective find the murderer quickly?"

"No, in fact, he made some small mistakes in his first appearance." Ning Xiao paused. "It's not important. What's important is that this case is similar to Su Li's death. First of all, the same cover-up of the death; the same cause of death - I forgot to mention that the lady in the manor was also killed by cutting her throat; and finally The important thing is that there is a loyal maid who is eager to avenge her. In this case, it is Yang Yun."

"In fact, in the novel, the maid was killed before the real culprit was found. However, she still left some clues."

Xu Shangyu's eyes lit up. "So you think that Yang Yun also left clues about the murderer."

"It's not the evidence left by Yang Yun, it's the evidence that He Ye deliberately asked her to keep." Ning Xiao patted the table lightly, with a slightly unhappy tone. "As the mastermind behind it, he will definitely let the case proceed meticulously according to my novel."

"You really know him."

"But he knows me better." Ning Xiao turned around and looked at the tabletop, carefully feeling the textures on the tabletop with his fingers. "He knows that I will come to Yang Yun's room, so he will leave clues here."

"Two dead people." Ning Xiao muttered to himself while touching the tabletop.

"what?"

"Braille." Ning Xiao said, "On this table, this is the clue left by Yang Yun."

When Xu Shangyu heard the words, he also leaned over. He observed from a height close to the level of the table, and there were some deep and shallow pits on the table. "A hostess girl with a career in junior high school can actually read Braille?"

"Obviously, this is Heye's trick." Ning Xiao pressed the table, his expression uncertain. "He told me in this way that everything is under his control. Who lives, who dies, and where there are clues are all arranged by him. Whether I can solve the case or fail is all under his control Next. This guy is simply..."

Too embarrassing!

For people with strong self-esteem, this kind of provocation is even more unbearable.

Ning Xiao supported the table, his eyes were almost in a state of absence.

"He was able to manipulate Yang Yun, make her commit suicide, and let her leave these clues in Braille. They have definitely had close contact, who? When? In what way?" His brain is spinning rapidly at this moment, ten thousand It may be presented, but he denied it one by one.There are too many possibilities. The person who can get in touch with a hostess and trick her into taking revenge in an extreme way is most likely...

"Xu Shangyu!" Ning Xiao suddenly raised his head, his eyes sparkling. "I need the information of all the guests in the guild hall this month, male and female, all! And compare the fingerprints on the dagger with them, as soon as possible, as soon as possible. He must still be around... definitely..." Since it was used to confuse Yang Yun's bait, then the line that Heye buried must not have had time to retreat at this time.Chances are, it's within their reach.

Who will be the person sent by Heye?

Is it him?Or is it disguised as a guest or resident here?

he……

"No, I refuse."

Ning Xiao, whose mind was spinning at high speed, suddenly heard a cold answer.He raised his head in astonishment, and saw Xu Shangyu standing by the window, the sunlight shot from behind the young criminal policeman, turning his face into a shadow.

"The investigative force of the police force is used to solve the case and find the real culprit, not to let you and Heye play a game of chasing each other." Xu Shangyu said coldly: "If I investigate the guests of the club, it is also to find out the real culprit. murderer."

"Ning Xiao." Xu Shangyu said: "The reason why I hired you as a special consultant is to find out the murderer as soon as possible. You, Heye, I don't care whoever is defeated in the battle between the two of you. All I care about is who the murderer is, and getting all the murderers punished. In terms of pursuing the murderer, I hope we cooperate with each other, and I don't want you to put the cart before the horse."

Ning Xiao was stunned, his beating heart gradually calmed down, and his brain also returned to its normal state from the almost crazy high-speed operation.At this time, he can look at things more rationally, and realize how uncalm he just said.

"Sorry." Ning Xiao said: "I went too far, I will find the murderer."

"It's not you, it's us." Xu Shangyu walked over, his cold tone faded, and he smiled again. "I have always believed in your ability."

"……thanks."

Taking a deep breath, Ning Xiao walked to the table again. "The clues are: two dead."

"Referring to Su Li and Yang Yun? No, Yang Yun did not commit suicide when he wrote these words. So, does it mean that there will be other dead? Or, there were victims before Su Li?" When this possibility was mentioned Sex, Xu Shangyu's complexion is not very good-looking.

"No, you still missed one of the most important characteristics of women." Ning Xiao said, gently covering his abdomen. "Here, another life is hidden."

Xu Shangyu looked shocked.

"……you are pregnant?"

Ning Xiao held back the veins on the top of his head. "This joke is not funny at all."

"Relax, don't mind." Xu Shangyu waved his hands with a smile, and said, "Then it means that Su Li was probably killed while she was pregnant, and the father of her child is probably the murderer."

Ning Xiao nodded. "So, we need to investigate. She has been in contact with the guests of those guild halls in the past month."

Xu Shangyu asked: "Then you don't look for the corpse?"

"Not for the time being." Ning Xiao said, "I think under the current situation, it is safer for the corpse to be hidden than to stay in our hands." He looked out the window, "The troublesome things will only start now."

At the end of the street in the distance, many black cars drove up. They surrounded the inner circle of the police cars with arrogance.

Ning Xiao knew that if the murderer was really a guest of this club, then there would be a big problem.

Because none of the members here are easy to mess with.
