The Secret Chamber of the Card Game

The silver in Shao Qingge’s treasure chest was all the same size, and each ingot had 3 to 5 characters engraved on it. Xiao Lou took out the silver, arranged them on the table in order, and connected the words on them——

Mr. Shao wrote a small composition to clearly describe his and Ye Qi's experience in that world.

"We came 20 years ago and found several suspects who were children."

"A group of robbers in Qingfeng Town robbed everywhere during the famine year. After obtaining a large amount of gold and silver treasures, they went to the top of the mountain to build a bandit village. However, due to the uneven distribution of the spoils, there were five brothers and sisters who conspired to embezzle the treasure and kill all the other robbers. To kill them all, the actions of these five people happened to be witnessed by a 9-year-old girl named Zhou Xiaoyun."

"A kind-hearted grandma in Qingfeng Town adopted six orphans. The eldest, Ren Yuan, was the uncle Ren who sold rattles in Qingfeng Town 20 years later; the second eldest, Aunt Qing, married to Yuezhou; Zhou Xiaoyun, Han Ningshuang, the boys Qi Ran and Qin Feng were all nine years old and belonged to the tiger. The mother-in-law can make rattles, and each of the four children has a rattle made by the mother-in-law with a tiger on the drum surface."

"Because Zhou Xiaoyun saw the faces of the gang of five robbers, the five wanted to kill them to silence them, so they found Grandma Sun and brought her back with three children, Qin Feng, Han Ningshuang, and Qi Ran. Zhou Xiaoyun jumped out of the window and escaped, and Ask Ren Yuan for help."

"That group of people did all sorts of crimes during the famine years. They not only burned, killed, looted, but also captured the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled as animals and kept them in captivity. They ate human flesh every day. When they were about to eat a few children, the mother-in-law stepped forward and used the children They had the highly contagious smallpox as an excuse to deceive them and asked them to find a place to bury the children. After the three children were buried, they were rescued by Aunt Qing who rushed over."

"In order to avoid being discovered by the thugs, Aunt Qing took Qin Feng and Han Ningshuang to Yuezhou. Later, a fire broke out in Yuezhou City, and Aunt Qing died in the fire. Qin Feng and Han Ningshuang separated because of this. took a bandit to be his master."

"The two children Qi Ran and Zhou Xiaoyun were taken care of by Uncle Ren. When the children were arrested, Qi Ran was cut off by the gangsters to help Han Ningshuang, and he had a high fever for a day. Because of the improper treatment of chickenpox, his face was bruised. Lots of scars."

"Qi Ran had a strange book with some pictures of marionettes drawn on it. We found him slipping out to read a book in the middle of the night many times, muttering words. Later, the five people continued to search for the witness Zhou Xiaoyun in Qingfeng Town. , Ren Yuan had no choice but to leave Qingfeng Town with Qi Ran and Zhou Xiaoyun, and wanted to go to Yuezhou to join Aunt Qing, but failed to find Aunt Qing and the three of them."

"The five-person group in Qingfeng Town is called Zhao Lang, Chen Yu, Xue Ming, Lin Xiaofeng, and Lu Cheng. Among them, Zhao and Chen are the grandfathers of the Zhao and Chen families who disappeared later. The other three have no family members. Unable to verify. Except for Lin Xiaofeng who is female, the other four are male."

"Ye Qi and I lived on weeds and leaves all day long during the famine years. We couldn't last long, and the clues we found were limited. I believe that everyone will be able to come up with an accurate answer based on the clues from future generations."

"Finally, if Ye Qi's and I's names are still on the contract when we see this treasure chest, it means that we guessed right by luck, one of the murderers is Qi Ran. If the name is not there, then this tomb is really our joint tomb Yes. Professor Xiao will burn some paper money for both of us."

Everyone: "..."

What the hell is burning paper money, Mr. Shao is quite good at joking!

After Xiao Lou finished reading the words on the silver coin, he couldn't help pressing his temples helplessly: "Boss Shao bet so big? Could it be that he and Ye Qi directly guessed the murderer?"

Yu Hanjiang said: "The murderer 20 years ago was still a child. The information they could find was limited, and they couldn't follow the murderer for 20 years. Judging from the known clues, the possibility of the murderer being Qi Ran is indeed the greatest. However, after investigation in later generations, we can know that there are actually more than one murderer. Perhaps, guessing one correctly 20 years ago is also considered as completing the task?"

Xiao Lou glanced over the names of the four children deliberately marked with ink on the silver.

Qin Feng, Han Ningshuang, Qi Ran, Zhou Xiaoyun.

Xiao Loudao: "Based on the clues left by Ninth Brother and the others, Han Ningshuang and Qi Ran must have teamed up. Han Ningshuang is responsible for flying a kite and pretending to be a ghost, while Qi Ran is responsible for leading people to mass graves and killing them. Qin Feng knew about it, but he didn't stop it." , As for Zhou Xiaoyun, her whereabouts seem to be unknown later? Brother Nine and Boss Shao didn't mention her ending in the clues."

Yu Hanjiang was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "By the way, Mr. Shao and the others found out that among the five gangsters 20 years ago, one was named Xue Ming. Is he Xue Zhao's father? Han Ningshuang married Xue Zhao when he was in a foreign country." , and followed Xue Zhao back to Qingfeng Town to sell tofu, but she became a widow not long after... Perhaps, the Xue family was settled by her?!"

Xiao Lou also thought of this possibility, and agreed: "The enemy's surname was Xue back then, and Han Ningshuang happened to marry someone surnamed Xue, and she became a widow shortly after marriage. It can't be a coincidence. Obviously, Han Ningshuang and Qin Feng After being separated, in order to survive, she wandered around with a group of thieves, and her psychology gradually became distorted. She happened to meet Xue's family in a foreign country, and recognized the enemy, so she married Xue Zhao quietly, just to come back for revenge."

Marry the descendants of the Xue family, then kill the Xue family, and then pretend to be a "lonely widow" and stay in Qingfeng Town to eliminate other enemies.

Perhaps Qin Feng was suspicious of Xue Zhao when Xue Zhao died, and Qin Feng was sure that it was her who did it after all accidents happened in Zhao family and Chen family. There are helpers, so Qin Feng left a rattle with a tiger painted on the drum at the scene where the Zhao family and the Chen family disappeared.

The four children were all adopted by the mother-in-law, who had her limbs cut off and died tragically. One can imagine the blow to them.Qin Feng disapproved of the revenge method of destroying people and families, and because of indecision, he dared not directly stop his partner's revenge plan; Han Ningshuang and Qi Ran's mentality was distorted due to the growth environment, and they used the method of killing people and their families to fill the gaps left by their childhood.

Because Qi Ran had chickenpox, he had many scars on his face, so he always wore a mask.He approached Zhao Zesui, the fourth young lady of the Zhao family, and made the silly girl fall in love with him, and then tried to kill the Zhao family...

The two murderers have deep scheming and vicious methods, and they are indeed the best among the murderers encountered so far.

After sorting out the logic of the whole incident, Xiao Lou put away all the money on the table, and said, "The truth about the murder case of Li Gui finally came to light. The teammates went to investigate 20 years ago and three years ago respectively, and passed on the clues smoothly. In this world, we have the most comprehensive information, and reasoning is the easiest."

Liu Qiaodao: "But we still have two issues that have not been resolved. One is the whereabouts of the witness Zhou Xiaoyun, and the other is the murderer of the girl sinking into the lake."

Qu Wanyue was the first to discover the body of the girl in red in Zuiyue Lake. Hearing this, she couldn't help saying: "Xiaoqiao is right, the girl's body was discovered after our team. At that time, Brother Nine, Shao They can't be contacted anymore, they must not know that this time the secret room is actually two cases going hand in hand."

Xiao Lou looked at Yu Hanjiang thoughtfully: "So, the difficulty of the secret room this time is to allow teammates to travel to different time and space, to help investigate the suspects in the ghost murder case, and to find a way to leave us clues; We still want to investigate the murderer of the Shenhu case?"

Yu Hanjiang nodded: "Well, it should be like this, otherwise we would have simply won this time."

The teammates are very good. Tang Ci's way of delivering clues is very clever. The clues spanning 20 years were also delivered to them by Mr. Shao in the way of "burying a treasure box in the grave".They are equivalent to entering the examination room with reference materials, and it is not difficult to deduce the correct answer.

The Shenhu case was discovered when they sneaked into Zuiyue Lake at night. At that time, the team split up and lost contact. Mr. Shao and Brother Jiu didn't know about it at all, so naturally they couldn't find out who the murderer was.

It seems that this case is only on their own.

Xiao Lou carefully recalled the known clues of the Shenhu case, and said: "At that time, many corpses of girls in red clothes were found in Zuiyue Lake. Normally, the corpses would turn to bones within 2 years in the water. We saw Some of the corpses have turned into white bones; some have begun to rot; and some have only been dragged into the water in the past few days, and the surface presents a fresh female corpse with an obvious giant view."

Yu Hanjiang said: "This proves that the murderer of the girl Shenhu case also committed crimes for a long time, at least for more than 2 years, and the woman he killed in the first place has turned into bones?"

Xiao Lou nodded and said: "And when he committed the crime, he also borrowed the legend of 'ghosts claim their lives', and specially picked the time around the Ghost Festival to drag those girls into the lake and drown them. They would think that these girls were taken away by ghosts."

Liu Qiao recalled the scene of everyone acting together, frowned and said, "I pretended to fall into the water, and Captain Yu and Brother Long went into the water to rescue me, and brought up a female corpse by the way. If I remember correctly, the girl's surname is Lin, who happened to be a few years ago. Missed a few days ago?"

Xiao Loudao: "When Qin Feng came to the scene, I thought he would continue to investigate, but he said that outsiders should not interfere with Qingfeng Town's affairs, and sent the body back to the Lin family... The strange thing is that the people of the Lin family treated their daughter There is no response to falling into the water?"

Long Sen scratched his head and said suspiciously: "There is something wrong with this family! At first, it was rumored that the ghost took her life and the daughter disappeared. It can be understood that she was taken by the ghost to be a ghost wife. Later, the daughter's body was found in the lake, and normal people would Do you suspect that your daughter was killed? The Lin family didn't respond at all, as if they didn't care about the girl's life or death at all?"

Yu Hanjiang said in a low voice: "There are two possibilities. First, they have a bad relationship with this daughter, and no one cares about her life; second, although they thought that their daughter was murdered, they dared not speak up because they thought that their daughter was murdered. There are ghosts, and a guilty conscience."

He paused, and then said: "I'm more inclined to the second possibility. There are more than one missing girls in this small town, and it's impossible for every girl to have a bad relationship with the family...Maybe these people have done it before. Bad things, the disappearance of their daughter made them think it was retribution for doing bad things, so they didn't dare to investigate, for fear of exposing their past crimes."

Xiao Lou also agreed with Yu Hanjiang's opinion, and analyzed along his line of thought: "We have stayed in Qingfeng Town for several days, and we have never seen a girl in red in the town, and the corpse we found at the bottom of the lake has The red clothes are all the same style, and even the hairstyle is very similar. Obviously, this is an obsession of the murderer for the woman in red."

Liu Qiaodao: "That is to say, the murderer changed them into red dresses, so they are so neat?"

Lao Mo said with emotion: "This murderer is perverted enough. He should be very strong. He can easily control a woman, change her into red clothes, and then drag her into the lake to drown."

Yu Hanjiang concluded: "The murderer is an adult male with great strength and good water skills. Two years ago, he began to borrow the public opinion of 'a ghost is killing his life' to commit crimes. He should have been stimulated by the woman in red, or was abandoned by the woman in red; The tragic death of the woman in red that he loved so much made him feel revengeful. Red clothes... the occasion when women in ancient times wore red clothes the most was when they got married, right?"

Xiao Lou's eyes lit up: "Perhaps, the meaning of the red dress is the wedding dress?"

The whereabouts of Zhou Xiaoyun and the murderer of the sinking lake case, only the last two puzzles remain.Although the names of the teammates are still on the contract, there is no guarantee that they will make mistakes in reasoning in this world, and they will also be thrown into the nightmare chamber with their teammates.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Yu Hanjiang simply stood up and said: "After dark, we will be teleported to the ghost town again, and there will be a lot of hunters waiting for us there. Hurry up and check what happened in the town in the past two years. Did anything happen to your wedding?"
