As soon as Yang Ming said this, before the residents had time to react, a petite woman appeared in the crowd and yelled at Yang Ming: "Stop spitting bloody words at me here! I'm the one living in the middle! How can a woman like me kill so many people! I don't know them well, it's hard to trick them into opening the door for me!"

The woman became more and more excited as she spoke, almost pointing at Yang Ming’s nose and cursing: “You can doubt me, at least every time someone dies, I will come out to check on the situation with everyone else! What about you? You are a man hiding in the house all day long, are you suspicious or am I suspicious!?”

When Yang Ming saw that the person at the middle door was a little girl, he was speechless. He became a complete suspect. He didn't need to look to know that it was impossible for a girl in her early 20s to kill someone and dismember the body and dispose of it by herself?

To be honest, if Yang Ming was not very clear that he did not kill anyone, he would have doubted himself.

Yang Ming's face instantly turned red. He looked at everyone and noticed that their eyes were becoming more and more hostile towards him. He stammered, "I really didn't kill anyone. It really wasn't me!! You guys think I'm a suspect just because I live opposite the corpse!"

"Not only that, when the first body appeared, everyone was checking the situation. You could have stayed at home, but why did you secretly leave the door ajar and peek in?"

Jun Li took advantage of the chaos to speak. His words made Yang Ming's face turn pale instantly. He stammered for a long time without being able to explain.

"Alas, I heard that some perverted murderers would hide in the dark and admire their masterpieces after killing someone!"

"Oh my god... he can't be that kind of person..."

Yang Ming took two steps back and realized that they would never let him go this time. His behavior was indeed too suspicious, but he really couldn't tell the reason.

A sharp-eyed resident noticed that he was trying to take advantage of the situation and yelled, "Don't let him get away, he's trying to close the door! Tie him up and open his door!!!"

The irrational residents were completely ignited by this sentence. They all swarmed over and pressed Yang Ming to the ground, tore off the bed sheet in his room and tied him up with his hands behind his back.

Yang Ming curled up on the ground in a very embarrassed state. When everyone swarmed in just now, someone took the opportunity to kick him a few times.

Lao Fan tried to persuade the residents but they wouldn't listen. Some even said, "Why don't we just team up and kill him. Maybe this building will be completely quiet!"

"Don't! What's the difference between you and that serial killer? This is a human life, not something else!"

Lao Fan was still a sober person and quickly stood in front of Yang Ming, who was curled up on the ground with fear on his face.

"Then you don't have to kill him. Just tie him up on the floor and open all the doors today. If he's still alive tomorrow and no one else dies, then he's the serial killer!!"

"You can't do this to me, I didn't f*cking kill anyone, you're going to kill me!!!"

Yang Ming was frightened and cried, struggling in pain, but no one paid any attention to his wailing. Instead, everyone agreed with this. Lao Fan’s persuasion failed and he had to give up.

Jun Li didn't expect things to suddenly turn out like this. He didn't know whether this was a good or bad thing to do. This could indeed eliminate the most suspicious person, but...

Obviously, those residents have begun to lose their minds and kill each other. If they can find the murderer today at the cost of Yang Ming's life, who will it be tomorrow...

Bai Ze, on the other hand, spoke in a low voice, as if thinking about something: "Let the silent ones speak... let the bystanders take action..."

"Yang Ming...bystander..."

Jun Li was suddenly stunned. If Yang Ming's peeping behavior was called a bystander... then... did it mean that he actually saw the miserable state of Li Gui before his death...

Damn! Yang Ming is innocent! Everything that is happening now is part of Li Gui’s plan! This is the price Yang Ming paid for being a bystander and remaining silent without taking any action!

Jun Li swallowed hard. What these residents did was really like killing someone alive...killing an innocent and not-so-innocent person...

What should I do... Should I watch Yang Ming, who knows the truth, being killed by the crazy residents...

Jun Li didn't want to let go of a "bystander" who witnessed Li Gui's tragedy, but under the current circumstances, if they went to stop it, they would definitely be treated the same way by the residents.

damn it! !

Bai Ze also had an ugly look on his face at this time. If they continued like this, they would be completely fooled by Li Gui. All their inferences would be overturned and they had no clue what was going on after so many people died.

"Let's go, there's no need to continue. Li Gui won't kill anyone tonight."

...

The two returned to the bedroom and locked the door. Jun Li paced back and forth in annoyance. He really wanted to smoke at this moment. So many people had died so far, but they had made no progress and were even fooled by Li Gui the whole time.

"Li Gui will not kill anyone tonight...Li Gui's purpose in making this scene is to get the angry residents to kill Yang Ming with their own hands."

Bai Ze sat on the chair with a frown on his face. "Once those residents start killing people, they have completely abandoned the bottom line of humanity. Once they start killing people in a group, there is absolutely no way to stop. If they can kill Yang Ming this time, who will it be next time?"

"When they realize they have killed the wrong person and that people will continue to die after they kill Yang Ming... the situation will be completely out of control."

Jun Li nodded and thought for a moment before asking a question: "Why Yang Ming?"

"Why did the resident choose Yang Ming instead of someone else to be killed?"

Bai Ze was slightly stunned and then heaved a sigh of relief: "You mean this Yang Ming is special?"

"Well, but I don't know what's so special about it?"

Jun Li sighed and said, "Think about it, all those people who died before were killed by Li Gui himself. What is the difference between Li Gui killing people and other people killing people?"

"Li Gui kills people without hesitation and without dragging his feet. He kills with one blow! What about people?"

"You also saw how angry those residents were. They lost their minds, right? Once they find out that no one died tonight, what will be waiting for Yang Ming tomorrow?"

"From the looks of those residents, it's not like they will let him go easily. They will definitely torture Yang Ming."

Bai Ze suddenly understood what Jun Li meant and nodded: "You mean why Li Gui could have chosen to kill him with his own hands like everyone else, but chose to let Yang Ming suffer inhuman abuse and torture from the residents and die in agony."

"Yes, I am now wondering if Yang Ming is really... just a bystander?"

Jun Li looked at Bai Ze and spoke slowly: "Just because he was a bystander, he saw the tragedy of Li Gui's life but did nothing and did not lend a hand, so Li Gui wanted to retaliate against him like this?"

"What do you mean?"

Bai Ze had no idea and could only look at Jun Li. Jun Li pondered for a moment and whispered: "I suspect... he is a bystander, but his relationship with Li Gui... is not simple..."

Jun Li suddenly asked Bai Ze: "My dear wife, if I were to cheat on you and you found out, what would you do?"

"You? Cheating?"

Bai Ze frowned slightly, and Jun Li quickly explained: "That is, what if one day you find out that I have fallen in love with someone else behind your back and then abandon you and betray you?"

Bai Ze's face darkened and he said coldly: "I will kill you."

"How to kill me?"

Jun Li seemed to have the answer and looked at Bai Ze with a little expectation. He looked at Bai Ze with a dark face and said word by word: "I will torture you to death and let your soul fly away without reincarnation!"

"Because of what?"

Jun Li leaned in and smiled, "Because we have a close relationship, which is different from others, my betrayal is unforgivable to you, right?"

"You know why you're asking me that?"

Bai Ze seemed to be really imagining that Jun Li was cheating on him. He turned around with a gloomy face and refused to pay attention to him.

"My little wife, I mean..."

Jun Li sighed and scratched his head: "We have a close relationship so you can't forgive my betrayal, so my punishment is different from that of ordinary people."

"Then, can Li Gui and Yang Ming also understand it this way?"

Bai Ze turned his head and widened his eyes when he heard this: "You mean that Li Gui and Yang Ming are very likely to have an extremely close and special relationship, so Yang Ming, as a bystander, Li Gui cannot forgive his close friend for watching him die without taking any action, so he chose the most painful and torturous way to die! This is the difference between Yang Ming's death and others! This is Yang Ming's specialness!"

"These are all my speculations, and there is no evidence to prove them at this time."

Jun Li sighed and said in annoyance: "The main reason is that we have no way to find Yang Ming to ask clearly. When we left, the residents planned to take turns to guard Yang Ming until midnight to prevent him from escaping."

"We can't move if someone is guarding us."

Bai Ze nodded slightly but then shook his head. He looked at Jun Li and suddenly smiled, "We can't do anything tonight, but tomorrow night may not be the case."

"Yang Ming's death has both disadvantages and advantages. The disadvantage is that the residents will become more violent, but the advantage is that this is a rare opportunity..."
