Death Spiral [Infinite Flow]

As soon as this remark came out, everyone's expressions changed.

The monk said in a deep voice, "Why did you say that?"

"It's very simple." Lian Qiao said, "Because Little Apple is not stupid. She can't go to places like Houshan alone."

Xu Rendong nodded: "Indeed. It's unlikely that the body would be thrown away after death. The way she died, the amount of bleeding was too much, it was impossible to transport it to the mountain without a trace, and the scene..." He looked at the scene inquiringly. Lian Qiao, "Is there a lot of bleeding at the scene?"

Lian Qiao said: "There is a lot of blood on the side of the corpse. If the corpse was thrown after death, there would not be so much blood at the scene. So I think the back mountain is the scene of the murder."

The first-hand information from Lian Qiao solved a doubt in Liandong's heart.If the reasoning is based on the premise of "the back mountain is the murder scene", then many things will be logical.

First of all, Little Apple and the monk are separated to go to the gymnasium to get books and bedding.It is inconvenient to hold the books and quilts in your hands. It is reasonable to say that she should send them to the dormitory as soon as she receives them, but Lian Dong has not received them, and she has not heard from the dormitory manager that someone sent him something.It can be seen from this that something happened to Little Apple when she was picking up the things, which caused her to go to the back mountain instead of looking for Lonicera.

No matter how you think about it, Houshan is a dangerous place. Little Apple will agree to the invitation, which means that the person who invited her is someone she knows and trusts.

Then the answer is simple.

Xu Rendong narrowed his eyes and looked at his teammates one by one.At this time, everyone had weird expressions, not knowing what they were thinking.

The long-haired aunt sighed, and said helplessly: "What are you talking about? You mean, there is a murderer among us who killed Little Apple? But what reason do we have to kill her?"

Lian Qiao pouted: "You have to ask yourselves that."

The man with the scar said angrily: "What do you mean, sowing discord?"

Aunt Changfa stopped him, and gently advised: "Don't get angry, everyone, don't get excited, calm down." She turned to look at Lian Qiao with sincere eyes, "I don't understand why you say that. Everyone's goals are They are all in agreement, and they all want to get out alive. Now there are only eight days left before the successful escape, and we have overcome all the difficulties ahead, why do we suddenly have internal strife at this time?"

Lian Qiao said lazily: "Infighting? Finding the murderer and bringing him to justice is internal strife for you?"

The long-haired aunt's face darkened, and her voice became sharp: "What exactly do you want?"

Xu Rendong felt that the atmosphere was too tense, which was not conducive to getting along with him in the future, so he tugged at his sleeve and called out in a low voice: "Lian Qiao."

Lian Qiao didn't look at him, but grabbed his hand with his backhand and held it tightly.

"What I want to do is very simple. There is only one thing from the beginning to the end." Lian Qiao looked at the crowd calmly, "It is to live with him."

The long-haired aunt's expression eased: "Then our purpose is the same! We all just want to live, what's the good of that..."

"Really?" Lian Qiao sneered, "Then let me ask you, what did you do last night?"

The long-haired aunt was taken aback: "At night? Didn't everyone go out to find Little Apple?"

Lian Qiao: "I mean before that. Little Apple should have separated from the monk around five o'clock in the afternoon, right?" He glanced at the monk.

The monk nodded.

Lian Qiao continued: "Everyone noticed that Little Apple disappeared at [-] o'clock in the evening. In other words, the accident of Little Apple should be between [-]:[-] and [-]:[-]. Let me ask you, what have you been doing during this time?" Well?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.The long-haired aunt had a displeased expression: "After all, you are still doubting us, is that interesting?"

Lian Qiao sneered: "Don't worry about whether it's interesting or not. Just talk about what you're doing and whether you have an alibi."

"..." Long-haired aunt gritted her teeth, "I'm in the hotel room. The girl who lives with me can prove it." As she spoke, she raised her hand and pointed at a certain girl, who nodded quickly.

"Yes, yes, we can prove each other. We were taking turns taking showers at the time." The girl said.

Lian Qiao curled his lips, seemingly dissatisfied with the answer, but he couldn't find anything wrong.He turned to look at the scarred man again: "What about you?"

"I'm smoking on the balcony." The man with the scar widened his eyes viciously, showing a fierce look, "I live alone, and no one can prove it to me. Why, this is considered murder?"

"This, the poor monk can prove it." The monk interrupted suddenly, "When the poor monk returned to the hotel at eight o'clock, he saw the benefactor smoking on the balcony. There were several cigarette butts on the ground at the entrance of the hotel, which the benefactor threw from the balcony. I came down. The poor monk was in a bad mood at the time, and felt that this benefactor was not very moral, so he went to the door and spit to him."

Audience: "...Indeed, we can provide proof of this. At that time, it was more than just a mouthful. If we hadn't helped to persuade the fight, the monk might have sent him to the west."

Xu Rendong: "..." No wonder Scarface has a few new wounds on his face today.

The old man with the scar blushed, slapped the table angrily and said, "There's no need to talk about such things!"

Xu Rendong coughed and asked the monk, "What about you? What are you doing outside?"

Before the monk could speak, Lian Qiao answered for him: "Actually, it was the monk who found out that Little Apple was missing. He originally made an appointment with Little Apple to meet in the library, but Little Apple never came back. He couldn't wait, so he I went to the gymnasium to find someone, and was told that the books and quilts had been distributed long ago, and the gymnasium was closed at that time. He was worried about Little Apple's accident, so he searched around the school, but he couldn't find her anywhere. Then he returned to the hotel, Tell everyone that Apple is missing."

"Yes." The monk sighed, clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, if I knew this earlier, the poor monk should go with her."

Next, the rest of the people said that they stayed in the hotel from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] and never went out.Since everyone lives together, they can provide each other with alibi.

"Let me sort out my thoughts." Xu Rendong took out a pen and paper, drew a rough map of the school, and marked everyone's activity route.

Aunt Changfa suddenly said: "Wait, there is one person missing."

Liandong looked up in surprise, and saw Auntie Long-hair staring at Lian Qiao with burning eyes: "From five to eight, where were you during that time?"

"I'm with him." Lian Qiao pouted towards Lonicera.

Liandong nodded: "Well, we are together... tidying up the room."

The long-haired aunt asked suspiciously: "Clean up the room? It takes so long? Didn't you go up at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and tidy up until eight o'clock?"

Lonicera coughed awkwardly.He knows that this reason cannot be justified, but he can't say frankly that we are in doi, right?

"He has three roommates." Lian Qiao took a step forward, quietly protecting Lonicera behind his back, "I have talked with those three people for a long time, and I want to see if there are any clues. If you don't believe me, you can go to them now to confirm .”

The monk said: "Then did you find out anything?"

Lian Qiao: "No, it's just an ordinary passer-by NPC. I came out after chatting, went to the cafeteria to buy him a meal, and asked three roommates to take it back. Then I went back to the hotel, just in time for you to come back and inform everyone The little apple is gone."

If Little Apple was really killed by his teammates, then Lian Qiao is the least likely to be the murderer.Xu Rendong knows that Apple is also a senior gamer, and has always had a good relationship with Lian Qiao.What's more, not only did the two of them have no conflict of interest, but Apple had also helped them a lot, so even Joe's suspicion could be ruled out.

So here comes the problem.Who is the murderer?

Lonicera stared at the simple diagram on the paper, lost in thought.

Everyone also gathered together and stared at the schematic diagram for a while, but couldn't offer any comments.

The long-haired aunt sighed: "From this point of view, everyone has an alibi." She looked at Lian Qiao with helplessness in her eyes, "Can you rest assured now? The one who killed Little Apple really wasn't Us. Why do you think that the one who killed her was a human being? Obviously this is a world where ghosts do exist, and she died so badly..."

Lian Qiao pursed his lips and did not speak.

Liandong frowned and pondered for a moment, feeling clueless.He thought for a while, and said, "Why don't we think differently—what is the motive for the murder?"

Little Apple is cute and cute, with a cheerful and enthusiastic personality, which is lovable.She has a good relationship with everyone in the team, who would want to kill her?

The monk said: "Maybe...she found something in the gymnasium?"

When everyone heard this, their faces changed slightly.

"What can there be in the gymnasium?" Aunt Changfa looked at everyone hesitantly, as if recalling, "I remember that it was...you who went to explore the gymnasium yesterday?" She pointed to a man and a woman. , "Did you find anything?"

The two immediately shook their heads like rattles: "No, no. We didn't find anything."

Aunt Changfa asked again: "Then have you seen Little Apple?"

The other party still shook his head.

The long-haired aunt sighed, looked at Lian Qiao and spread her hands and said, "Then there is no way to verify it."

Lian Qiao didn't speak, just lowered his head and played with the teacup in his hand.

After thinking about it, Liandong still felt that Little Apple's death was full of doubts, but now she didn't have the slightest clue.He glanced at the time and sighed, "I still have class later, so I have to go."

He briefly told everyone about his conjecture about the elevator, and everyone was instantly refreshed, saying that it is important to go to class and study.

Lian Qiao got up to see him off.It was about 01:30 at this time, approaching the afternoon class time, and there were many students on the road.On the way from the cafe to the teaching building, the two kept silent in a very tacit understanding.

Liandong is still thinking about Little Apple, as for Lian Qiao...

He didn't know what Lian Qiao was thinking.

Arriving at the bottom of the teaching building, Liandong finally couldn't bear it any longer, and pulled Lian Qiao to the corner of the bicycle garage.

"I'm a little worried about you." Liandong looked around and made sure that there was no one around, then sighed and said, "Since you doubt them, it's fine to keep it in your heart, why bother to say it? It's just to scare the snake...you are Do you really think they killed Little Apple?"

Lian Qiao: "Yes."

"why?"

"Because they had a motive to kill."

Liandong was taken aback: "What motive?"

Lian Qiao smiled bitterly, and raised his hand to touch his cheek: "Their motive is of course you. Don't you understand what 1992-2020 means?"

Liandong was silent for a moment, and said, "I understand. But at least until 2020, they won't attack me."

"So they attacked others." Lian Qiao sighed softly, "Little Apple and the monk are friends with us. I guess they dare not directly attack me, so they first find a way to pry our allies away. Wait until Both Little Apple and the monk are dead, and the next target is me."

Lonicera was silent again.This time, it was a long time before he spoke.

"sorry."

"No need to say I'm sorry." Lian Qiao looked at him with a smile, his eyes were shining like stars, "If I were the key player this time, you would stand by my side no matter what, wouldn't you? "

Liandong looked at him, her heart suddenly softened into a puddle of water.He didn't know what to say, so he reached out to Lian Qiao and hugged him.

"Yes." He leaned on Lian Qiao's shoulder and replied in a low voice, "I will always be by your side."

"..." I don't know which word in these words touched Lian Qiao, the muscles at the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and a trace of inexplicable complex emotions flashed in his eyes.

"Go to class quickly, you're going to be late." Lian Qiao kissed his earlobe, and whispered in his ear, "Come to the library after class and pay back what you owe me."

Xu Rendong was puzzled: "What do I owe you?"

Lian Qiao smiled: "You will know when you come."
