"Why can he rule it out? What evidence do you have?" Buckley asked.

Cecily shrugged and replied nonchalantly: "There is no evidence, but I guarantee it, okay?"

"Of course not." Beverly took over, "No one stipulates that there can only be one murderer, and it is not surprising to have an accomplice. Therefore, the so-called guarantee is a joke."

"Beverly, are you sure you want to offend everyone? This is not a wise move." Cecily was smiling, but there was a dangerous light in her eyes.

Beverly seemed to feel that he was a little rash, so he immediately shut up and stopped talking.

At this moment, Jiang Lili and Claire, a group of four, rushed out of the woods in panic.

After seeing everyone, Jiang Lili bent over and said out of breath: "He, He Rong killed someone, he, he killed Zhan Kaishu, I saw it with my own eyes!"

"What did you say!?" John rushed to Jiang Lili and grabbed her shoulders.

Jiang Lili was startled by John's sudden movement and subconsciously took a few steps away, but when she saw Kaxin lying in a pool of blood, she froze again.

After reacting, he screamed and asked with a panic look on his face: "She, what happened to her?"

"You'd better talk about the situation on your side first. Aren't the four of you together? Why are only the two of you back?" Buckley also walked over and asked with a stern face.

Jiang Lili took a few deep breaths and forced herself to calm down. After a while, she slowly said: "Originally, the four of us were looking for Kaxin in the forest, but at some point, Zhan Kaishu who was following the team at the back suddenly disappeared, so, We discussed it and decided to go back to look for Zhan Kaishu, but for some reason, the three of us got separated halfway."

"I was very scared at the time and ran around in the forest in a panic. But unexpectedly at a trough, I saw He Rong slit Zhan Kaishu's throat with a snow-white scimitar..."

"I was frightened and ran away. Then I met Claire who was lost again. The two of us ran to the edge of the island and finally returned after seeing the flare."

After John finished listening, he thought for a while, turned to look at Claire, and asked, "Claire, do you have anything to add?"

Claire thought for a moment and shook her head, "I didn't see He Rong kill Zhan Kaishu. Apart from this, everything else is true."

"Take us there immediately!" John made a decisive decision, but his voice was a bit scary and low.

"Okay." Jiang Lili nodded mechanically, seemingly intimidated by John's aura.

Afterwards, everyone, led by Jiang Lili, went to the place where Zhan Kaishu was killed. Unexpectedly, the two places were not far apart, and the straight-line distance was even less than 500 meters.

When they arrived, Zhan Kaishu was already dead. The way he died was the same as that of Kaxin, indicating that it was most likely caused by the same person.

It was still Anna who examined the body, and her examination results confirmed this guess.

"The time of death was about 10 minutes. Judging from the wounds on their necks, the two men should have been killed by the same sharp weapon..."

"He Rong, he, he killed Kaxin? Why did he do this?" Jiang Lili murmured to herself, her face full of disbelief.

She and He Rong got closer because of the same stance, but they didn't expect that the other person turned out to be a murderer.

"In other words, these two people were killed by He Rong?" Buckley scratched his head, always feeling a little incredible.

There was a puzzled expression on Xue Jin's face, and he whispered: "The time should not match up. Kaxin died three and ten minutes ago, and Zhan Kaishu died two and ten minutes ago. If the murderer is He Rong, he needs to leave. Is it too extreme for the team to find Kaxin first, kill her, and then come back to kill Zhan Kaishu?"

Others nodded slightly when they heard this. Judging from the order of the two deaths, it was indeed a bit unreasonable.

"How long ago was it when the three of you separated?" John turned to look at Jiang Lili.

"Well..." Jiang Lili frowned and thought for a while, then said with a somewhat uncertain tone: "It should be more than half an hour, Claire, what do you think?"

Claire thought for a while and replied: "I'm not sure, but based on my feeling, it's about four to 10 minutes."

Buckley nodded slowly, "In this way, the time is right. Besides, if He Rong is not the murderer, why has he not been seen until now?"

"I don't think it's that simple." Beverly smiled contemptuously, and then stared at Jiang Lili with a pair of probing eyes, "Ms. Jiang, you said you saw He Rong murder Zhan Kaishu with your own eyes, so can you explain it? , why didn’t he pursue you as a witness?”

"What do you mean by this? Are you doubting me? It's so ridiculous." Jiang Lili's face turned red with anger.

"It's not a doubt, but it's a doubt, isn't it?" Beverly said with a half-smile on his face.

When Jiang Lili saw that the others were also suspicious, she became a little anxious. She pointed at Beverly and said, "Now the murderer is at large, but you are pouring dirty water on me. You and He Rong are not the same group." Right?"

When she said this, she seemed to have thought of something, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she shouted: "It must be, you must be in a group, one is in the light and the other is in the dark, the light one is in the team to disturb the line of sight, and the dark one hides and acts as the executioner, Yes or no!"

"Hahaha..." Beverly laughed as if she heard something funny.

"Why are you laughing? This is not funny at all. You must be feeling guilty." Jiang Lili's eyes widened and she stared at him with an indifferent expression.

"Okay, stop arguing!" John shouted coldly, interrupting the dispute between the two. "Now is not the time for internal strife. The top priority is to find He Rong as soon as possible. As long as we find him, everything will come to light."

Li Ming has been observing everyone's expressions. He always feels that the team is getting out of control a little quickly, as if there is an invisible hand provoking their nerves, but who is this person?

Everyone comes from different worlds, and the possibility of forming an alliance is very small. Even if you can add friends to play together, are the so-called friends really trustworthy? After all, only one person can obtain the rating reward, so allies cannot be trusted.

Moreover, he still couldn't figure out why Kaxin left the camp alone in the dark. What was even more outrageous was that the four-person group could actually get separated in broad daylight, and they were not elementary school students on a spring outing.

Another point is that the murderer was able to kill Kashin in such a short period of time. Either he had contact with Kashin and then stabbed her in the back, or he secretly placed a tracker on Kashin. As for which possibility, He doesn't know yet.

However, he thinks that it is unlikely that He Rong or Jiang Lili is the murderer. Simply put, he thinks that the murderer is not that stupid. It is not a wise move to expose himself to the public after just killing two people.
