a little bit

They went down the stairs and reached the first floor.

The scene was chaotic, a group of people gathered together, Xingxin stepped forward, pushed aside the crowd, and saw a middle-aged man lying in a pool of blood with a blood hole on his chest.

Xingxin looked around and shouted loudly: "Who is his family?"

"I..." A woman shrank and stood up. She glanced at the people on the ground and sobbed softly, "I am his wife."

Xingxin lowered his head and saw that there was still a child in her arms, and pursed his lips slightly, "Your husband?"

Before he finished speaking, the woman raised her head and cried, "He had a fight with me, and then left the room. The child was crying all the time, so I didn't go out to chase after him. I didn't expect, I didn't expect him to... "

At this moment, there was only a bang, which was a sound from upstairs. Everyone looked up, only to see a figure passing by the stairs. Xingxin turned around, looked at those panic-stricken people, and said to them: "Stay here and don't go anywhere."

As he said that, he was about to go there, but Qiao Qiao gently pulled his arm, "I'll go with you."

Xingxin and Qiao Qiao went upstairs, and Gao Qian stayed behind to investigate the scene. He pushed his glasses and looked decent, when someone asked him, "Sir, are you a policeman?"

Gao Qian was taken aback, raised his head, and grinned, "No, I am a messenger of justice."

Crowd: ...

"You gave him sleeping pills, he should be asleep now." Qiao Qiao frowned slightly, and Xing Xin also felt that something was wrong.

They walked to the door of the room, and Xingxin opened the door with the key card. He asked Qiao Qiao to stand behind him, and went in first. When he got inside, Xingxin looked at Qiu Yi who was lying on the bed.

He turned his head and looked at Qiao Qiao, "He's still asleep."

Qiao Qiao was shocked, "Who could it be?"

Xing Xin was silent, suddenly, he stretched out his hand to grab Qiao Qiao, and pulled him to his side, Qiao Qiao's body shook twice, "What's wrong?"

He exclaimed, Xingxin pulled him behind him, narrowed his eyes, and looked at the person walking in front of him.

Luo Kuang looked at them with heavy eyebrows, and Qiao Qiao couldn't help but flinch when he saw it was Luo Kuang. He still remembered the knife he had received.

Downstairs, Gao Qian looked at the middle-aged man who was stabbed to death, his eyes followed his stiff face to the blood hole on his chest, suddenly he felt something was wrong, frowned, took a few careful glances, and glanced The little girl in her arms hugged her mother's hand tightly, trembling uncontrollably.

Gao Qian felt a little weird, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he leaned over and his eyes fell on the knife edge on the middle-aged man's chest.

He stabbed it in with a knife, and then pulled it out quickly. There shouldn't be so much blood left. He frowned, looking at the blood-soaked shirt.

Moreover, the cut of the knife was not neat and messy, like stabbing it in the same place several times, but this is not in line with the rules, Gao Qian pursed his lips and frowned.

"Mom, will Daddy still beat us?"

The little girl's voice floated over with fear and fright, Gao Qian raised his head, the woman immediately covered the little girl's mouth, her face was pale, Gao Qian watched her reaction, his eyes fell on her cuffs, and he opened his eyes wide , suddenly reacted.

This person was not killed by the people upstairs.

He looked at the woman in front of him and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Under his gaze, the woman suddenly howled loudly, defenseless, which shocked everyone.

Gao Qian's tense nerves were like Li Xuan's arrow. He took a deep breath, took one or two steps forward, walked up to the woman, bowed his head, "You killed it, you killed your husband."

The woman covered her mouth and cried, and the little girl in her arms ran out, hugged Gao Qian's leg, and cried, "Don't hit my mother, don't hit my mother, please, don't hit us. "

The little girl waved her hands, her sleeves rolled back, Gao Qian saw the bruises on her upper arm, he clenched his fist, the woman quickly hugged the little girl back, she knelt on the ground, bowed her head, tears and snot running down her face , the girl hugged her mother's face, "Mom, don't cry, mom don't cry."

The woman shook her head and looked at the corpse on the ground in a daze. She said intermittently: "I killed the man. He kept beating and kicking me. My sister ran over and told him not to beat me. He kicked my sister. feet, I said to him, let's go out and talk, he pulled my hair, pulled me out, I was dragged down the stairs, he said he would strip me naked, let people see, heh, he is not my husband , He is a devil, I have been hiding this knife on my body, I thought, one day, I will kill him."

The woman holding the little girl let go, and the bloody knife fell out of her clothes. She lowered her head and said in a floating voice, "I wanted to kill him a long time ago, and I wanted to kill him a long time ago. Killed, now finally... freed."

"Then after you kill him, what are you going to do next?" Gao Qian looked at her and asked in a deep voice.

"I will leave this world with my child. She was born by me, and I should take her away." After the woman finished speaking, the little girl immediately hugged her and burst into tears.

No one around spoke. They looked at the mother and daughter in shock. The corpse on the ground was already cold. Gao Qian endured the discomfort in his heart, bent down, pushed the woman's hand away, and hugged the little girl.

The little girl didn't struggle, she had already reached the age where she could understand adults' words, but because of this, the words just now were even more cruel to her.

"You have no right to decide life and death, even if this child is yours, you have no right." Gao Qian looked at her and said.

Upstairs, Luo Kuang and Xing Xin were confronting each other. He glanced at Qiu Yi on the bed, frowned and asked, "What did you feed him?"

"Sleeping pills." Xing Xin paused, "Normal dosage."

Luo Kuang frowned, he passed the two of them, walked to the side of the bed, and hugged Qiu Yi, "He didn't kill him, go downstairs and have a look, everything is messed up downstairs."

If one person dies, of course there will be chaos.

After everyone was shocked, they started to riot. The woman was dragged to the room on the first floor and locked the door. Her child was left aside. Gao Qian found the child and held the little girl's hand. The girl looked up blankly. Looking at him, I couldn't cry anymore.

Chen Li comforted them, sweating profusely, but no one listened. Everyone wanted to go back, but the bridge still collapsed.

Fortunately, when they went downstairs, what they saw was this mess. Qiao Qiao found Gao Qian and saw the girl he was holding by his hand, "What's going on?"

Gao Qian told them the matter, Xing Xin frowned, "You left that woman alone in the room?"

After he said this, Gao Qian's expression changed, and he immediately ran to the locked door, opened the door, and a rush of blood came in his nostrils, he couldn't help but took a step back, Qiao Qiao supported him, and Xing Xin walked towards them After taking a look, he walked over and supported Gao Qian for Qiao Qiao.

Qiao Qiao walked into the room, and there was a broken glass on the ground. The woman took the corner of the glass and cut the carotid artery severely. Blood sprayed on the wall, like a bright red abstract painting.

Gao Qian immediately covered the little girl's eyes, hugged her, and ran outside.

Qiao Qiao's body was trembling, Xing Xin stepped forward and put his arms around his shoulders, they retreated, everyone retreated, and closed the door.

No signal, no alarm.

Two people have died.

The people in the commotion gradually calmed down. After they were quiet, they started to get scared. Chen Li continued to comfort them and advised them to go back to the room to rest and wait until the next day.

Qiao Qiao lowered his head, looked at the tightly held hands between him and Xing Xin, and sighed in his heart.

Everyone went back to the room one after another, Xing Xin followed Qiao Qiao back, Gao Qian took the little girl's hand and went back to his room by mistaking the light bulb.

As soon as they entered the room, the two of them seemed to be sucked out of breath. They hugged each other and let out a long breath.

Qiao Qiao leaned his chin on Xing Xin's shoulder, and Xing Xin put his arms around Qiao Qiao's back, "It will be fine."

That night, the night wind was quiet, the moonlight shone through the clouds, Qiao Qiao and Xing Xin embraced each other and fell asleep.

The next day, they were awakened by a messy knock on the door.

Xing Xin opened his eyes first, Qiao Qiao covered his head, Xing Xin looked at him, pursed his lips, got out of bed and opened the door, Gao Qian stood outside the door, his glasses were crooked, he whispered: "Dead again one person."

Xingxin took a deep breath, "Who died?"

"I don't know yet. On this floor, I also heard the voice running over."

At this time, Qiao Qiao also came over, and Gao Qian asked him, "Did you hear anything yesterday?"

"No, we slept soundly." Qiao Qiao paused, "Wait for us, Xingxin and I will wash our faces and come out."

When they came to the room where the crime happened, there were a few people standing at the door. There were not many people watching this time, and everyone hid in the room and did not come out.

When Chen Li saw them, his eyes paused on Xing Xin's face for a few seconds, then he lowered his voice and said, "Master Xing, it's better not to go in here."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Qiao opened the door and walked in, followed by Xing Xin.

Chen Li was speechless, walked last, and entered the room.

This is a big bed room. There is a person lying in the middle of the big bed. It is a young girl with her limbs spread out and her face facing up. Her young and beautiful face is distorted and her eyes are empty. Qiao Qiao approached Some saw that the girl's chest was pierced by an iron pipe and nailed to the bed.

"That iron pipe should be left over from our use on the second-floor rooftop, and we haven't had time to take it away yet." Chen Li looked at the blood-stained iron pipe, covered his eyes, and explained in a low voice.

Xing Xin frowned, he turned his head and looked at the other two people standing at the door.

It was a male and female couple, they were close to each other at this moment, their faces full of fear.

Xing Xin walked up to them, glanced at their clothes, and asked, "What's your relationship with her?"

"I...we are her classmates." The voice of the girl who spoke trembled slightly, she covered her face and looked like she was about to cry, "I don't know, it was fine yesterday, when we came to look for her this morning, she That's it."

The boy beside him didn't speak, just lowered his head, his fingers trembling, and his face was very pale.

At this time Gao Qian came over, he glanced at the two, pulled La Xingxin's clothes, and told him to go to Qiaoqiao.

The girl noticed their movements and asked, "Did you find anything?"

Gao Qian nodded, "The murderer left something on the bed."

Hearing Gao Qian's words, the boy's face became paler than before. This time, his lips were covered with white paint, pale and pale.

Xingxin walked to Qiao Qiao, "Did you find anything?"

Qiao Qiao nodded, pointing to the ground, Xing Xin looked down, Qiao Qiao pressed against his ear, and said softly: "I didn't find anything, Gao Qian asked us to pretend, it's a scam."

Xing Xin paused, then squatted down earnestly, carefully observing the texture of the carpet.

On the other side, the two people at the door couldn't stand anymore, the boy looked like he was fished out of the water, his face was covered with sweat, and the girl was not much better, pretending to be calm, they looked at the bedside The two people were searching carefully. Suddenly, Qiao Qiao stood up and said loudly, "I found it."

At this moment, the boy sat down and cried.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, don't look for her anymore, we killed her."

"What are you talking about? I didn't kill people. I didn't kill people."

The girl's eyes widened. She pushed the boy away and ran out. After a few steps, she was grabbed by someone who suddenly came out of the room. Luo Kuang looked down at her, sneered, and took the girl's clothes The leader, without mercy, threw people back.

"What? He died again?" Luo Kuang approached the door and smiled casually. He looked at Xing Xin and raised his eyebrows at him.

No one answered him, Xingxin walked up to them, looked down at the two, "tell me, what's going on?"

"It's my fault. I cheated. After the death happened yesterday, everyone was very scared. Xu Li was taking a shower in the bathroom. I was in the room. Not long after, Yuanyuan came." The boy pointed to the side The girl said, "Yuanyuan and I just talked a few words. Unexpectedly, Xu Li came out at this time. She saw us."

"We had a dispute. Xu Li was very hot-tempered. She hit me with a cup. Yuanyuan pushed Xu Li away. As a result, Xu Li hit the coffee table and passed out."

"What happened next?" Xingxin asked in a deep voice.

"Later? We killed her." It was the girl named Yuanyuan who spoke. She seemed to be fearless. She looked at the bed through the crowd and smiled, "I wanted to kill her a long time ago. Why, she is good at everything, good-looking, good grades, even a boyfriend, but I have nothing, I want to take her things away, and I will let her taste what it is like to have nothing."

The boy seemed to be taken aback when he heard her say that. He suddenly turned his head and looked at the girl in front of him in disbelief.

Luo Kuang was watching a play nearby, with a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold, and he said, "Now, isn't this... a good place for evil to breed?"

"Without communication, I can't leave here. No one comes to save me. Murder cases come one after another. In troubled waters, if one more person dies, no one will suspect me."

"Is that right, is that what you think?"
