On killing the protagonist

When they found that there was one missing notch under the bed frame, the three people in the room fell into confusion.

"Why is there one missing?" Ye Qiu was puzzled, "There is no reason."

Ye Hanjiang quickly recovered from his confusion: "Don't worry about the reason for the disappearance of the marks, first confirm whether this is only in my room or in all the rooms."

The three looked at each other, turned around and went out to check other rooms.

"I checked Weiguo and I's room, and found nothing unusual." As soon as the three met, Ye Qiu spoke first.

Ye Hanjiang said: "There is no room for Ke Xiao and Jerry either."

"Yang Chao and I still don't have any relevant rooms." Gu Qinuo shook his head.

"So, both the nicks and the leaves only appeared in my room, which means that it can basically be concluded that this information should only be passed on to me."

Ye Hanjiang said in deep thought: "Then the disappearance of the engraving is worthy of attention. This person wants to use this strange phenomenon to attract my attention in order to achieve the purpose of conveying some kind of information."

"So what exactly is it trying to convey?"

Gu Qinuo said: "I just took a look at the position where the notch disappeared, and the patina on the surface is very complete, it doesn't look like it was carved and smoothed."

Ye Qiu agreed: "That's right, even if it is really carved and smoothed, it will definitely leave traces, so now the only possibility that can be confirmed is that it was artificially rubbed off, but if it wasn't rubbed off by humans, then why did it suddenly disappear? Woolen cloth?"

Ye Hanjiang said: "Objectively speaking, it is impossible to reduce the engraved marks, but they have indeed disappeared, so if we jump out of the frame to look at the problem, except for restoration and parallel space, there is only one space left. possibility."

He looked at the other two people: "That is the space we are in now, the timeline is chaotic, today is actually not the day after yesterday, but the day before."

Gu Qinuo immediately reacted: "You mean, assuming there are three days in total, on the surface today is the third day we have come to this island, but in fact it is actually the first day."

Ye Hanjiang: "I have no way to be sure, I can only say that there is such a possibility, and I also tend to think that this possibility is the greatest."

The three of them discussed for a while, and after making sure that there was nothing more to discuss, they stopped and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast this morning.

The gray sky made the whole room look extraordinarily dark. The moment Ye Hanjiang stepped out of the kitchen door, Ye Hanjiang even felt that Ye Qiu's figure was blurred a lot.

When Ye Hanjiang suddenly stopped, Gu Qinuo looked at him with concern: "What's wrong?"

Ye Qiu, who was walking in the front, also turned around when he heard the sound.

Ye Hanjiang rubbed his eyes, and when he looked at Ye Qiu again, he found that the feeling just now had disappeared again.

In order not to worry others, I just shook my head and said, "It's okay, I didn't sleep well last night."

The other two breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Hanjiang watched their leaving backs, and clenched his fists unconsciously.

When the three of them came to the restaurant with a simple breakfast, an unexpected person was sitting at the table.

"Why is it you again?" Gu Qinuo looked at the person sitting at the dining table with a disgusted expression.

Gaia didn't mind Gu Qinuo's bad attitude at all. He put down the apple in his hand, put two fingers against the corners of his mouth in a wicked way, and made a smile: "Surprised? Surprised?"

Guan Rusu just arrived at the door of the restaurant at this time, and when she saw Gaia's face, she screamed in fright, and ran back to her room with a pale face, even ignoring breakfast.

On the other side, Wei Guo also moved back a few steps with a pale complexion, obviously having a psychological shadow on what Gaia did yesterday, and his eyes were full of fear.

Gu Qinuo was too lazy to talk to him, he deliberately threw his tableware aside and chose to share a pair of tableware with Ye Hanjiang.

The man was really hooked, stood up and walked towards them: "Oh, I want to share a pair of bowls and chopsticks with the cutie."

As he said that, he was about to reach out and grab it.

Ye Qiu blocked his way forward: "Are you being rude?"

Gaia smiled: "I have a thick skin!"

He looked at the other two with a playful look on his face: "Seriously, what's so good about this dumb guy? He can't speak and has facial paralysis. If you really want to have a date, you might as well find me? I'm much more interesting than him..."

Before the words fell, the sound of metal impact rang in my ears, a coin was chopped off and embedded in the wall, and the horizontal knife that Gu Qinuo swung at Gaia just now was also deflected to one side.

Gu Qinuo looked at him with a frosty face while maintaining the posture of wielding the knife, his eyes could burst into flames, he gritted his teeth and said, "You're courting death."

Gaia jumped back to her seat from where she was, squatted on the stool and patted her chest with a mean face: "Oh! How did I forget, you are his male ticket, it is not honorable to be a mistress, or..."

He raised the corners of his mouth as he spoke, stared at Gu Qinuo and licked his lips maliciously, looked at Ye Hanjiang with a questioning look and said, "Should I kill him? Then I can pursue you openly."

No one in the room took these words seriously, they all knew that he said this on purpose to try to annoy Gu Qinuo.

Ye Hanjiang grabbed Gu Qinuo who was about to run away, looked at Gaia coldly and said, "You are not welcome here, please leave."

Gaia looked at him with the eyes of a heartbroken man and said: "I am all about the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch. Just go!"

After all, he actually stood up and left.

Ye Qiu watched his leaving back, and suddenly thought of a question: "I'm curious, there is no food or fire in the woods, what does he eat?"

Ye Hanjiang didn't raise his head, put a chopstick into Gu Qinuo's bowl to fry ham, and replied: "If you go to the kitchen now, maybe you can find a big mouse that stole the food."

Ye Qiu suddenly realized: "You mean him..."

Thinking of this, I immediately got up and went to the kitchen to verify.

When he pushed open the kitchen door, he happened to see Gaia jumping out of the window with a piece of bear cake in her mouth.

That cake was made by Ke Xiao to coax Jerry.

"Fuck, Xiao Jiu really guessed it right. This person is too shameless, and he even brought someone who stole food." Ye Qiu complained as he looked at the messy kitchen.

When his eyes swept over the corner, Ye Qiu suddenly felt something was wrong.

He remembered that he had covered the rice jar after cooking in the morning, but at this time the lid of the rice jar was thrown aside.

And when Gaia has a choice of cooked food, it is obviously impossible to touch uncooked rice.

This means that someone must have touched the rice vat!

Did someone poison it?

Thinking of this, Ye Qiu's heart tightened, and he rushed forward to check what happened.

Five minutes later, Ye Qiu ran into the dining room with an excited expression, and said to the others with a piece of letter paper in his hand, "I just found this in the kitchen!"

As he spoke, he handed the paper to Ye Hanjiang.

Ye Hanjiang took the paper and unfolded it, only to see that it read:

Penalties

We sincerely invite every one of God's people to participate in the work of condemnation and judgment as a bystander. We will condemn and judge the crimes of Satan, evil angels and every sinner.

Everyone who puts a knife around his neck and mutilates himself will be judged.

Executor: Saint Peter

After hearing the news, Guan Susu read the letter and shouted with a pale face, "What do you mean? Punish sinners? Are you talking about us?"

Wei Guo's expression on the side was not good: "So the letter paper on the second day's speech was not a prank, but a real person who was playing the role of executioner and wanted to kill us all."

Ye Hanjiang quickly went through the entire notice and punishment in his mind, and quickly analyzed a few key points.

He said: "From the contents of this paper and the paper that appeared on the first day, we can see that the murderer thinks that we are all sinners. Since we are sinners, there must be a way of judging. As long as we can find out With this method of judging, we can follow the clues and find out the murderer's pattern of killing."

"Secondly, it has already been said that every sinner will be judged for his crimes."

As he spoke, he pointed to the second line of the sentence statement: "But it mentions the specific crime again here, which shows that this crime should be specific to a certain person."

"Placing a knife on your neck and destroying your body? I guess the meaning of these words is likely to be the crime committed by Yang Chao."

As he spoke, he looked down at the last line of executors: "As far as I know, St. Peter, also known as St. Peter, is the leading figure among the twelve disciples of Jesus, plus the sinners, judges, Satan and evil angels in front From these religious words, it can be judged that this executor should have a very serious religious tendency, in other words, he should be a relatively extreme Christian."

As soon as the words fell, all the people present took a step back and looked at Wei Guo vigilantly. After all, he was notoriously bad-tempered, and he also carried a cross with him, so the suspicion was not small.

Wei Guo panicked: "It's not me!"

Ye Hanjiang said calmly: "It's just a preliminary suspicion, not that you must be the murderer."

Wei Guo looked suspiciously at the others, but in the end he distanced himself from the crowd and retreated far away towards the door.

The others also looked at him warily.

Ye Hanjiang ignored the undercurrents at the scene, and carefully checked the paper. When his eyes swept over the lower left corner of the letter paper, he suddenly stopped.

I saw a dark mark there, which looked like a water stain. He rubbed his thumb and forefinger on the paper lightly, and there was a slight adhesive force from the contact position.

"What is it?" Seeing him frowning, Ye Qiu asked.

Ye Hanjiang shook his head, he handed the letter paper to the tip of his nose and sniffed it lightly, a sweet fragrance came into his nasal cavity.

Guessed: "It seems to be juice."

"Juice?" Gu Qinuo heard the words, took the letter paper and sniffed it, and then concluded: "It should be peach or pear juice."

Ye Qiu said thoughtfully: "It's mid-September, peaches are out of season long ago, and on the small island, there are only two pear trees in the factory building on the west."

A flash of light flashed, and Ye Hanjiang came to his senses instantly: "Go to the west factory area, where is Yang Chao being locked up!"
