"..." Gu Dongqiang couldn't help swallowing.

He now has psychological shadows when he sees the medicine bottle.

Could it be that he got the bottle on the floor?

But when he took a closer look, he found that the sticker on the bottle was different, and it seemed to be another bottle.

so far so good.

But this caught Jiang Chi's attention even more.

Because the bottle of medicine that he found after searching in the village all morning disappeared so strangely.

What Chu Xin was thinking at the moment was what Qin Fang said to Tong Chengcheng earlier, "Little baby is a special confession".

So what is this?

The three of them had their own concerns, and the room was surprisingly quiet for a while.

In the end, Chu Xin sat down first and took the medicine quickly.

Gu Dongqiang had trouble with Chu Xin and the others before, so now he can't even talk. He went to bed early to go to bed, afraid that they would ask about the medicine bottle again.

However, the villagers outside were all having a carnival, and they didn't give him a chance to fall asleep at all.

The loudspeakers in the village seem to be planning to play Christmas carols all night long.

Chu Xin walked slowly to the window, quietly looking at the carnivaling villagers outside.

A pane of glass and a layer of snow and fog separated them into two worlds.

"Jingle Bell--"

Christmas bells rang softly, breaking the tranquility of the small yard.

The young man ran in wearing a red Christmas hat and holding a small golden bell in his hand.

"Where have you been?" Another young man who had been in the house couldn't help complaining, "It's getting dark."

We agreed to decorate the room together.

The little boy wearing a Santa hat smiled mysteriously, "Of course it's a surprise for you!"

Despite the cold weather, a thin layer of sweat still oozes from the forehead of the young boy who has been tossing outside for a long time. Under the light, his honey-colored skin is even more eye-catching.

"surprise?"

At this time, an uncle from the neighbor pushed a small car.

There was a small Christmas tree in the car.

But the top is still bare.

There are all kinds of gift boxes, small bells, ribbons and the like piled up under the tree.

"I bought you a Christmas tree." The boy said proudly, "I did it without telling my grandma."

The elderly are still not very interested in foreign festivals.

"Okay, the things have been delivered for you, I'm leaving!" The uncle neighbor saw that the two children were really interesting, but the family was still waiting for him, so he was in a hurry to go back.

"Thank you, Uncle!" The two children hurriedly thanked, and then took advantage of the opportunity to surround the small Christmas tree.

They'll be decorating a beautiful Christmas tree with fried chicken tonight!

The young man's eyes seemed to shine like stars.

"So what are you going to give me?" The boy who had already given away the tree raised his head, full of expectation.

The boy on the opposite side looked at a dry ginkgo leaf that happened to fall outside the window, and smiled.

……

Think back to the present.

Holding the warm milk cup in her hand, for some reason, a warm current flowed quietly through Chu Xin's heart.

Sometimes that's the case, a little hidden poke seems insignificant, but it is always unforgettable.

"That Qin Fang seems to be paying attention to you." Jiang Chi said suddenly while leaning against the bed.

Chu Xin's heart skipped a beat, "I think so too."

"Have you seen him?" Jiang Chi could only speculate like this.

"...Maybe?" Chu Xin laughed while answering.

He himself didn't know why he wanted to laugh.

"Don't trust these NPCs too much." At this moment, Jiang Chi was terribly rational.

Chu Xin knew in her heart that Jiang Chi would stop there.

"By the way, thank you for helping me find the medicine." Chu Xin suddenly remembered, "It's not easy to find, but it's a pity that I lost it after taking it once."

Gu Dongqiang, who was wrapped in a quilt on the other side, was agitated at the moment.

He turned his back on Chu Xin and the others, not daring to look back.

Jiang Chi glanced at Gu Dongqiang on the bed, "There's nothing you can do if you lose it. The windows must be closed tonight, so they don't accidentally open again."

Chu Xin heard something in his words, and with the secret glance from the other party, she immediately figured it out.

Jiang Chi and the others went out today, and there were basically only Chu Xin and Gu Dongqiang in the apartment building.

Even if Qin Fang is here, it is impossible for him to open the window and steal medicine.

No wonder Qin Fang performed a fork with his bare hands in front of Gu Dongqiang today.

That guy... probably got angry because he knew about it, right?

Chu Xin probably made up his mind. Although his guess was not completely correct, it was still pretty close.

But it's meaningless to say it, there is still one day, end it early, goodbye early.

Sleep with the lights off.

Christmas Eve is not a safe night.

Not long after Chu Xin and the others got up in the morning, they heard the notification sound from the system.

Alice died again.

[Alice has died in the room, remaining life 3/7, now the player can go to the death scene for 20 minutes to investigate]

All players gather in the hallway.

"Alice died again?" Tong Chengcheng couldn't believe it.

She was the one who sent Alice back to the room with her own hands yesterday, and even watched her go to bed.

Did she run out again later?

"It was only her and her mother in the room last night...couldn't it be...?" She thought of a particularly cruel possibility.

Li Xin couldn't hear this the most, so she immediately said, "Tiger poison doesn't even eat its eggs!"

While discussing, the door of Alice's room opened to them.

As a result, they were dumbfounded as soon as they entered.

"Where's the corpse? No corpse?" Gu Dongqiang searched for a long time before he had to admit this fact.

Jiang Chi went straight into the back room, "Alice's mother is not in the room."

Even Chu Xin found it difficult this time.

Thanks to the medicine given by Jiang Chi and Qin Fang, the fever finally subsided when he woke up today, and he finally had the energy to cope with the next game. Unexpectedly, the game became more and more difficult.

No body meant they couldn't determine how Alice died.

"Let's look for it first." Chu Xin suggested.

So they split up to find clues.

The fire in the fireplace in the room burned as usual, as if it would never go out.

Tong Chengcheng approached the fireplace, stared directly at the flames inside, was about to turn his head when he suddenly found something in the fireplace!

She was eager to take it out, which was obviously difficult, and finally Chu Xin helped to find a pole-like thing and picked it out.

Several people gathered around to look at the scorched and charred thing on the ground.

"Is this Alice's doll?" Tong Chengcheng recognized that it was the doll Alice was holding at night.

Even though it was burnt black, it was generally recognizable.

"The doll was thrown into the fire." Chu Xin was calculating possible candidates, "either I hate dolls or I hate Alice."

"Let's exclude Alice herself first, right? I think she likes this doll quite a bit." Li Xin said.

Jiang Chi said, "Not necessarily, her mother is pregnant."

Gu Dong, who was listening by the side, saw that the situation was completely controlled by Chu Xin and Jiang Chi, and immediately retorted: "What does this have to do with her mother's pregnancy?"

Chu Xin took a look at Gu Dongqiang, "The doll can represent many meanings. It may represent Alice herself, or it may represent all children. If your mother suddenly tells you that she has a second child, it may not be a good thing for you." good news."

After all, some parents are not very responsible, and they will be very partial.

"...What do you mean?" Gu Dongqiang subconsciously felt that what Chu Xin said was a bit uncomfortable.

Chu Xin smiled lightly: "It means whatever you think it means."

Gu Dongqiang's face instantly collapsed.

"It's also possible that Alice's mother threw it." Jiang Chi ignored Gu Dongqiang at all, "If she hates Alice or... the unborn child in her belly."

This is another possibility.

Tong Chengcheng and Li Xin couldn't help but gasped.

This might be too vicious.

"Aren't we looking for her body? What's the point of studying who threw the doll for a long time?" Gu Dongqiang expressed his opinion again.

"You're quite right." Chu Xin said lightly and went to the back room.

"..." Gu Dongqiang felt that Chu Xin was also mocking him, "You think everything I say is wrong, right?"

Chu Xin stopped, turned back and said to him, "I agree with what you said, but you think I'm mocking you; if you don't agree with what you think, you think I'm pushing myself out and ignoring your existence. How can I answer you?" satisfy?"

After all, it was Gu Dongqiang who was suspicious.

He knew that he was not capable enough, but in front of two ladies, he was the only one of three men who was useless, so he felt uncomfortable after all.

When Chu Xin entered the room, she heard a strange sound, as if some wheel was turning.

After searching carefully, he found an overturned electric car in the corner under the table.

This little car... from a dead house?

"Why did this car appear here?" Tong Chengcheng, who followed in, wondered.

The dead house should not usually come to this room.

"Where did the dead house go after dinner last night?" Chu Xin asked.

Tong Chengcheng thought about it for a while: "He went back to his room after eating."

Seeing that the time for the first investigation was approaching, Chu Xin and the others had to go to the body mirror on the first floor to determine the time point of the teleportation.

In the past, the mirror would ask a multiple-choice question for them to choose.

But this time it was different, the mirror did not give an option.

【Who do you think is the murderer who killed Alice? 】

This question is quite rigorous, asking who I think it is now.

No body, no options, this question is too difficult.

"At present, the only clues we have got are the doll and the car. Although I don't think it will be that simple, the dead house is the one that leads more clearly," Chu Xin said.

"Then shall we write about dead houses?" Tong Chengcheng believed in Chu Xin's judgment anyway.

"There is no evidence for other people, so I can only gamble." Li Xin also felt that there were too few clues, but there was really not much time left for them.

Chu Xin wrote the name of the dead house on the mirror.

【Ready to send】

The scene in front of me turned into a kitchen table full of leftovers.

Chu Xin realized that they were back when they had just finished dinner.

[Please follow the action of the dead house, make sure not to lose the target, and save Alice, or you will bear the consequences]

The system prompts them like this.

So everyone ignored the dishes and followed up with the dead house who got up and left.

Sensing that someone was following him, Si Zhai turned back expressionlessly and asked, "Why are you following me?"

"There's something wrong." Chu Xin said copingly.

They must have followed into the room of the dead house.

The reminder from the system just now is not so much a reminder as a warning.

It should be to prevent them from "stepping on a few boats", and everyone wants to stare at them.

The dead house did not object.

He led a group of people into his room just like that, and then closed the door.

The night life in the dead house is very boring. He played games for a while, studied the remote control for a while, and ate a supper late at night.

When Chu Xin found that he had a remote control, she asked him, "Where's your car?"

The dead house suddenly let out a sinister laugh.

"How do I know?"

Hearing this, Li Xin and Tong Chengcheng couldn't help feeling horrified.

They held on through the night.

Finally, I looked forward to the dawn.

The dead house did nothing extra.

Then the system updated the notification sound——

[Alice has died in the room, remaining life 2/7, now the player can go to the death scene for 20 minutes to investigate]
