I'm afraid of non-human beings

In the toilet with the humming lights, the two looked at each other.After a brief daze, Duke raised his legs and was about to run outside.

Lin You stopped him.

"Where are you going?" she asked.

"You don't need to ask!" Duke's eyes widened, and he unconsciously looked back at the corpse lying on the edge of the pool.

His tone was full of nervousness and worry, "If what we met just now is really a counterfeit——"

Wouldn't it be dangerous for those who pursued them? !

"But it's already this time, and it's too late now."

Lin You said, "Why don't we solve the situation in front of us first."

She also walked directly towards the male corpse.

The blood gushing from her face and neck stained a large circle of her front, but this was not what she wanted to see.

Lin You reached out and grabbed the hem of the clothes in front of him, and pulled it out forcefully.

She was suspicious when she saw him covered in blood.As expected, Lin You saw a splash of blood on it, which was obviously darker in color.

"It seems," she said, "the real murderer of the corpse in the classroom has been found, and the original 'Wu Yufeng' was the murderer."

"Now, your mission is complete."

She turned her head and asked with a smile, "Right, Mr. Police?"

Duke: "..."

"I can't understand a word" was written all over his face.

Duke: "What are you talking about??"

His tone was sincere, but Linyou raised her hand solemnly and patted him on the shoulder.

She replied with the same sincere tone: "One thing to say, your level of pretending to be stupid is really bad."

Duke: "..."

Who is he, where is he, and what is he doing.

"Ah—" he yelled, his serious face completely collapsed, and he brushed his hair randomly, "I give up! How did you know that?!"

"It's simple."

Lin You blinked.

"I said that I have no malicious intentions, and you don't have to worry about it." She said, "In short, if you look at the timeline, things should be like this."

"This serial murderer was involved here as an NPC just like us. Then, he first met the boys in the lecture hall."

"The other party recognized him as his companion in a panic, so he succeeded easily. Whether he wanted to clear the evidence or for other reasons, he came to this toilet."

Lin You raised her hand and tapped on the edge of the half-shattered mirror.

"Unexpectedly, in the mirror——I think about it, the most likely thing is the strange talk about the 'double body'. The other party came out to replace his identity and became the 'Wu Yufeng' we just met."

"As for your identity..."

Her voice paused.

"It's written in the newspapers where the murderer is, and the police have no reason to sit idly by, so I guess there must be someone in the player whose mission is to find him. Besides——"

Lin You imitated the previous action of the other party, "When you were chased by that hanged ghost, you subconsciously touched your waist. Is this habitual action meant to draw a gun?"

Duke: "..."

He covered his face and let out a long sigh.

——It was a complete failure.

"It's a shame you paid attention to this at a time like that," he muttered.

As he spoke, he lifted up a corner of his jacket, revealing the holster hidden underneath.

Obviously in the shape of a pistol.

Duke: "I thought it wouldn't work, so I tried to shoot."

Then before he had time to react, that strange move shattered his three views, which directly led to being led by the nose all the way.

From this perspective...

He looked at the girl in front of him who was short of the word "harmless" written on her face, and he couldn't help but feel a little more awe in his eyes.

"In short, the serial murderer himself is dead, so you have achieved your goal."

Lin You said generously.

"By the way, my mission here is to investigate the 'seven mysteries' of this school, which does not conflict with your interests."

Until then, Duke really breathed a sigh of relief.

——Isn’t it.

With lingering horror, he recalled the hanged man who rolled wildly on the ground to put out the fire.

No, there is no conflict.

"However," he hesitated, "are we really going to leave Xia Zuo alone?"

Lin You raised her eyebrows.

"I'm asking you," she said.

"How did you know he was human?"

Duke was taken aback by her question.

"That's it," he scratched his head, "he said he was, and he hasn't shown any abnormalities in this aspect. I observed for a long time, and after making sure that he was not the murderer I was looking for..."

Lin You: "..."

This man is too honest! !

Now that she said it so clearly, the other party changed his expression as if he had come to the memory, "Are you saying that he—"

"Do not."

Lin You thought for a while, "I just want to say that everyone here is not as simple as it seems on the surface, but you can continue to believe that he is human."

"It's still the same sentence. If anything is going to happen, it happened a long time ago. If we go there, we won't be able to catch up. It's better to believe that he can come back safely with his own ability." She said, "If you think about it better, maybe you won't catch up at all."

Seeing Duke's obviously relaxed expression, he knew that he didn't hear the subtext hidden in her words, probably because he was not good at doubting others at all, and it was really unlucky to be thrown in such a level.

Based on various signs and some kind of subconscious intuition, Lin You was almost certain.

——The guy named Xia Zuo is probably not a question of whether he is human or not, there is still a bigger mystery hidden in him.

And when he really came to meet up, it was when the suspicion was completely confirmed.

"Before we meet up," Lin You turned her head, "I'll go over there and have a look."

Duke: "Huh?"

"Hanako." She said naturally.

——Although it is very likely that the bamboo basket fetches water in vain.

"Since 'Wu Yufeng' is the serial murderer, he probably committed the Huazi case back then." She looked back, "You should know this better than me."

Duke nodded.

"So, if Hanako is really in this toilet and doesn't need a double body, she will do it first."

But still make sure.

Lin You walked to the door of the innermost compartment neatly, raised her hand and patted the door panel.

She recalled the method of summoning written in that newspaper clipping, and read it out word by word accurately.

"Hanako, Hanako, come and play together."

Everything was quiet, only her voice echoed in the empty toilet.Duke could hardly hear his body breaking out in a cold sweat. While being horrified by the silence, he was also afraid that there would be some kind of response.

After calling three times, there was still no movement from the door.Although she didn't have any hope at all, Lin You still didn't want to be reconciled and simply opened the door, only to stop when she saw that it was really empty inside.

"Let's go."

She said, "Go to the health room."

-

The difference between before and after is only two or three minutes.

It wasn't long before they stepped into the health room at the end, and before they had time to rummage through the bottles and jars to see if any of them might come in handy, they heard the door that had just been closed behind them being pushed open.

Duke was startled, and followed the prestige.

"Great, you are really here!"

The person who strode in was obviously running in a hurry, but when he spoke, he could really hear that he was relieved.

Xia Zuo happened to be standing squarely at the door, without even a trace of blood or scars.

Duke was about to ask him how he was doing, but when he remembered the previous conversation, he suddenly became a little suspicious.

"Then who—Wu Yufeng?" He asked again.

"This one……"

Xia Zuo seemed a little hesitant to speak.

"That guy is weird." Finally, he asserted.

"I went to chase him. I obviously didn't feel how fast he was running, but he disappeared as he ran. There was darkness ahead. If I think about it, I will meet you first."

He said, "Let's look for it together now?"

"This--"

Duke and Lin You looked at each other, and the latter continued: "That's not necessary."

Xia Zuo: "...?"

Facing his puzzled gaze, Duke pondered for a while, and summarized what they found in the women's bathroom in a few words.

Xia Zuo's eyes quickly turned from doubt to shock.

"It's unbelievable."

He muttered, "It's a good thing I didn't chase after him, otherwise I would..."

"By the way," he didn't immerse himself in the joy of his "survival after the catastrophe" for a long time, and asked as if suddenly remembering, "I didn't see that hanged ghost again when I came here. You have already thrown it away?"

Duke: "..."

He glanced at Lin You tangledly, omitting the part where the hanged ghost changed into a card, and only said that the other party couldn't stand it and ran away.Even so, it still made me almost doubt my life, but Xia Zuo seemed to be listening with great interest.

"It makes me really want to see it with my own eyes." His tone was actually quite regrettable.

Duke: "...???"

you sure? ? ?

This attitude seemed to be serious, Duke opened his mouth, and was about to say something, but Xia Zuo turned his head to the other side.

"You've been staring at me since just now..." He asked with that refreshing smile, "Is there something on my face?"

Lin You raised her eyebrows.

Half-true lies are the most difficult to distinguish, but at a certain moment just now——

She was already sure of the answer in her heart.

"Not at all."

Lin You smiled back, "I was just wondering when I could interject."

As she spoke, she put the thing in her hand on the table.

"Huh," Duke was stunned, "When did you—"

"When you look at the blood on the clothes."

Lin You replied: "I flipped through his pockets. It seems that the murderer found a clue in his busy schedule."

It was a note that they had seen something like it.
