Doctor, you are so cold
Chapter 56 [Case 6] Guess a riddle
Everyone started talking immediately.Several people also held up candles to check the small room in the main hall.
Yang Rudao: "My lord, what you mean is that every night there will be one person watching the night. After locking everyone's rooms, I will hide in the small room in the main hall for the night?"
Yan Yunqi said: "Yes."
Feng Bo said: "But the murderer himself must have another set of keys, right?"
Yang Rudao: "Those locked up must not be able to go out and kill people, at least that's for sure."
Li Shaoyan said: "In other words, if someone is still dead at night, it means that the night watchman is the murderer, or the murderer is not among us, but is hiding somewhere in this house."
Yan Yunqi said: "Basically, it can be determined in this way."
Lin Wenjing said irritably, "After all, we still can't guarantee safety."
Everyone was silent.In this situation where no one can be trusted, how can we ensure safety?
Yan Yunzhi said: "This method seems to be the best method now."
Li Moyan nodded.
Wei Qingchi said: "Then who should watch the night?"
Feng Can said: "Why don't you and the prince come to watch the night?"
Lin Wenjing immediately said: "Up to now, I don't want to hide the matter. The most untrustworthy person here is probably the prince. The prince brought us to this place, but he concealed it in many ways. I even think that the prince is the real one..."
Li Shaoyan quickly reprimanded: "It's not clear who the murderer is now, everyone can't mess around!"
Yan Yunqi was silent for a while: "In this case, it is better to take turns to watch the night."
In the current situation, he actually doesn't even believe in silent words and few words. There is no other way but to take turns.
As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded silently.
Lin Wenjing immediately said: "I would like to be on duty tonight."
Yan Yunqi couldn't help loathing this Lin Wenjing in his heart: night watchmen can lock the room, they are indeed the safest people.In fact, everyone wants this position, but no one is as thick-skinned as him.
Li Shaoyan said: "Today I will be on duty, but tomorrow I will be replaced. Does Lieutenant Lin understand?"
Lin Wenjing nodded: "Naturally."
Yan Yunqi said: "So, Lieutenant Lin will be on duty tonight."
Everyone finally negotiated and made a decision.
After a day of tension and hard work, everyone was exhausted. After saying goodbye, they went back to their respective rooms.
Yan Yunqi looked at the little straw men for a while, and then returned to the room holding the candlestick.He lit the fireplace beside the bed, closed the window, and waited for Lin Wenjing to lock the door.
After a while, there were footsteps outside the door.
Yan Yunqi said: "Lieutenant Lin, rest well tonight."
Lin Wenjing said: "Thank you, my lord, for your concern." He didn't dare to speak any more, but there was obvious dissatisfaction in his tone.
Yan Yunqi shook his head slightly, thinking that Lin Wenjing might be an arrogant and pampered son at home, but he didn't want to argue with him.After the door was locked and the footsteps gradually faded away, he recalled what happened today from beginning to end.
The deaths of Zhao Jing and Liu Hui were all arranged in advance, there was nothing unpredictable, and it was impossible to point out who the four blades were.The amazing thing is that Four Blades has done excellent research on these people, knowing everyone's background and even their habits.Therefore, this case was designed by him based on the characteristics of these people.
While thinking about a few small details today, Yan Yunqi suddenly felt a stomachache and nausea.He felt that something was wrong, but he also began to worry.The toilet is outside, but I was locked up. Should I deal with it in the room?
Just as he was about to get out of bed, he heard the doors of several rooms around him being knocked violently, accompanied by the noise of several people.
"Stomach hurts! Go to the toilet!"
"Lieutenant Lin! Open the door!"
"Are you here?!"
A bad feeling rose in Yan Yunqi's heart.Everyone has a stomachache?This is definitely not a coincidence, it must have been designed by someone.What is going to happen again?
After a long time, the shouts around had turned into scolding before someone's footsteps rushed over.Then, the doors were opened one by one.
There was no time for the crowd to speak, and they hurried to the toilet, making a mess.The east courtyard also seemed to be in a mess, and the same situation might have happened.
Lin Wenjing's face was very ugly: "Damn it! What did you eat tonight!"
Yan Yunqi has the highest official rank, and the others dare not compete with him, so he is the first to enter the latrine to solve the problem.After he came out, he felt a little exhausted, with cold sweat on his head, his body fluctuating from hot to cold, and the feeling of wanting to vomit still couldn't stop.He can confirm that there must be something wrong with the food tonight, and it seems that the problem is still very serious.
He came to the east courtyard to check the situation there, but found that it was not much better.Everyone stood unsteadily one by one, clutching their stomachs and standing in front of the toilet.
After discussing with everyone, they felt that the door could no longer be locked tonight, no matter what the situation was, let's get through the night first.
So, this night, the house was very lively, everyone ran to the toilet one after another, and the scene was very chaotic.
——————————————————————————————————————————
After working hard all night, Yan Yunqi felt dizzy and had a high fever when he woke up the next day.He screamed in his heart that it was not good, but he was worried that the murderer would take advantage of last night's chaos to strike again, so he had to go to the main hall of the middle courtyard.
As soon as he came here, he saw Wan Zheng, Feng Bai, and Wei Qingchi sitting in the main room, discussing things intensely, and they looked good.When the three of them saw Yan Yunqi coming, they stood up quickly.
Yan Yunqi smiled wryly and said, "How do the three adults feel?"
Wan Zheng said: "Thank you, my lord, for your concern, there is nothing wrong with humble ranks."
Wei Qingchi said: "The three of us are fine, but the others are sick. We discussed it for a long time this morning, and we think there must be something wrong with the beef in the kitchen."
"Oh?"
Feng Bo hurriedly said: "No one in the lower ranks eats beef."
Yan Yunqi felt a "thump" in his heart.This must have been done on purpose by Four Blades again, but what is it for?
Wei Qingchi said again: "This morning, the humble officials came here and found this..."
He handed the little straw man in his hand to Yan Yunqi, only to see that the scarecrow's head had been cut off and could not be found, and the word "Sun Yi" was written on the chest.
Yan Yunqi screamed in his heart that it was not good.It was very chaotic last night, and everyone's health was not good. It was really impossible to pay attention to everyone.He had a premonition that something would happen, and it came true.
He hurriedly said, "Sun Yi...is he still there?"
Feng Bai said: "Not in the room."
Yan Yunqi stood up quickly: "Let's look for it quickly." As he said that, his body shook, and he was dizzy and a little unsteady.
Wei Qingchi supported him: "The prince should go back to the room to rest first. After we search around, we will report to the prince."
Yan Yunqi was anxious, but he had no other choice. After thinking for a while, he could only say: "Okay. I'll go back to the room and lie down first." Then he asked: "I don't know how the other people are doing?"
Wan Zheng said: "It's almost the same as the prince, and the symptoms are the same. It's just that Feng Can mentioned something strange."
Yan Yunqi: "Oh? What's the matter?"
Feng Bai said: "He said that there was noise in the empty room next to him last night."
Yan Yunqi frowned: "It was a mess last night, even if there were some noises, it's not surprising."
Feng Bo said: "No. Those noises came after the door of the east room was locked. At that time, his stomach hadn't started to hurt. Because the room opposite him was where the dead body was parked, he was very scared at that time, because he was afraid of ghosts or something. Yes. But after a while, the sound stopped."
Yan Yunqi raised his eyebrows: "That means all the rooms in the east room are locked. After Lin Wenjing left, there was a sound in the empty room next to him?"
Wan Zheng nodded, "Feng Can said so."
Wei Qingchi said: "From this point of view, I'm afraid there are other people in this house who are really murdering. The so-called 'mysterious and hospitable master' is the murderer, right?"
Yan Yunqi stopped talking.
After a long time, he said: "My lords, go find Sun Yi first, and we will talk about this matter later."
The three of them hurriedly took orders.
Yan Yunqi walked back to his room slowly, feeling very depressed.Sun Yi was afraid that he was dead, but he still had no clue.Four Blades has won three times.
What about the voice in that empty room?Is there really someone there?still……
Also, why is the scarecrow's head missing?
He returned to the room and lay down on the bed, feeling more and more unbearable with headache and body cold, and unable to think normally.He lit the fire on the fireplace again, covered himself with the quilt and shivered.
After an unknown amount of time, Yan Yunqi was pushed, opened his eyes in a trance, and saw three people standing in his room.
Feng Baidao: "I would like to report to the lord, the lowly ones didn't dare to disturb the lord's rest, but..."
Yan Yunqi struggled to sit up and interrupted him: "Did Sun Yi find it?"
Wei Qingchi said: "I found it under a tree in the forest."
Yan Yunqi: "How is it?"
The three of them looked at each other, Wan Zheng said: "The lowly ones don't dare to move their bodies casually. It's better for the prince to go and see for himself."
Yan Yunqi stood up quickly, his body was still a little shaky: "Go and see!"
Wan Zheng helped Yan Yunqi out of the courtyard, walked slowly for a long time, and finally came to the woods.Yan Yunqi immediately saw a headless body lying against the tree trunk, with blood on the ground.
He walked forward quickly and carefully inspected the corpse: "The figure and skin color are consistent with Sun Yi. Judging from the bleeding, Sun Yi was leaned against this tree by the murderer and chopped off his head." .”
He pointed to the marks on the tree above the broken neck: "It should have been beheaded when he was unconscious."
The other three were silent.
Wei Qingchi said: "The whereabouts of everyone can't be determined last night, and the doors of each room were not locked. Everyone is suspected, and the 'owner' is also suspected."
Yan Yunqi took out a piece of cloth from the corpse's hand, read it briefly, and his mind was buzzing.
[How did the prince investigate the case?Where did Sun Yi's head go, does the prince know?How about this, the prince and I guess a riddle.If the prince can solve this mystery and find Sun Yi's head before noon tomorrow, I will give him a gift.If the prince can't solve this mystery, I can only give him a gift that he doesn't like very much.I wish the prince success! 】【Mystery: four corners and eight heads, three eight twenty eight. 】Yan Yunqi hid the cloth strip, and stood up with heaving chest.In his heart, he was extremely angry with Four Blades.If he can't figure it out, will something happen to Nianzhi?
Yang Rudao: "My lord, what you mean is that every night there will be one person watching the night. After locking everyone's rooms, I will hide in the small room in the main hall for the night?"
Yan Yunqi said: "Yes."
Feng Bo said: "But the murderer himself must have another set of keys, right?"
