deadly round table

"Zuo Zhixing is right, let's go have breakfast." Bai Mei lost her appetite just by smelling the disgusting smell wafting from the next door, but she still squeezed out a smile to go along with Zuo Zhixing.After finishing speaking, she took Jiang Wenyuan's arm and limped towards the dining area on the first floor.

Jiang Wenyuan tore open the hard bread, and asked the restless Baimei, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Baimei looked left and right, after confirming that no one was paying attention to their table, she put her arms on the table and leaned towards Jiang Wenyuan, her voice was very low, "When I finished the task you gave me yesterday, by the way, I talked with other players for a while. We chatted for a while. There are three men and one woman who live next door to us. One of them is a man and a woman. Their seats on the round table are on both sides of Zuo Zhixing! Also, yesterday you and he came back from the burial place, and you got infected for no reason. Strange disease. I suspect..."

Jiang Wenyuan swallowed the bread that scratched his throat, and completed Baimei's unfinished words, "So you suspect that Zuo Zhixing is the betrayer of this round of the game. In order to hide his identity, he used tricks to kill two players who could expose his identity, and plotted I have a strange disease?"

Baimei nodded vigorously, "That's it!"

Jiang Wenyuan remembered the first round of the round table game. He and Zhang Chen didn't realize Zuo Zhixing's trap until the end of the game. With Zuo Zhixing's style, if he really became a betrayer, he would not be so careless.It was a bit troublesome to explain to Baimei, Jiang Wenyuan simply skipped this paragraph, "I think the possibility of Zuo Zhixing being a traitor is very small. I believe him."

Baimei clenched her fists and said in a firm tone, "Round table games are not charity, and I won't let him go just because the two of you have a good relationship."

Jiang Wenyuan thought Baimei was angry because he thought he was being careless, "Then let's find a chance to test him."

Baimei's tone finally softened, "Okay."

Jiang Wenyuan filled his stomach, and he drank a cup of goat's Baimei and returned to the second floor. The players blocking them had almost dispersed. Zuo Zhixing was still waiting for Jiang Wenyuan at the door. When he saw the two of them going upstairs, Waving to the two of them, he was wearing several pairs of medical gloves that Jiang Wenyuan had given him yesterday, all of which were covered in blood, "You are finally here, I have made an important discovery."

The two stepped on the corridor covered with bloody footprints, followed Zuo Zhixing into the scene of the tragedy, and four mutilated corpses appeared in front of them.The exposed limbs of the four people were covered with bite wounds, and what was even more terrifying was their faces. They were dying, their bloodshot eyes stared like copper bells, their mouths were wide open, and all the teeth in their mouths were knocked out. Down, the tongue was also uprooted.The bitten flesh from their limbs could not be found at the scene, but their teeth and tongues remained, scattered in pools of blood.

Baimei leaned against the door, not making up her mind to go in for a long time.Jiang Wenyuan approached one of the male corpses and observed his hands.The male corpse's hands were twisted in front of his chest, each finger was twisted several times, and drooped on the back of his hand.Jiang Wenyuan pressed his twitching stomach, his eyes followed the man's hand and landed on the bite wounds that tore off the flesh one by one, "Zuo Zhixing, what is the important discovery you are talking about?"

"Look at the bite wound on his forearm. There are many rows of non-overlapping tooth marks around the wound. This bite wound did not bite off the meat in one bite, but repeated the bite four or five times before the meat was torn off." Zuo Zhi Walking to Jiang Wenyuan's side, he took the male corpse's arm and showed Jiang Wenyuan the bruises on his arm, "Judging from the palm prints of the murderer he bit, it should be an adult man about 1.8 meters tall. As far as the bite force of an adult male is concerned, to bite a piece of raw meat from the arm, you don't need to repeat it many times, one bite is enough."

When Baimei heard Zuo Zhixing utter such terrifying words in an unsteady tone, her face changed like a palette.Jiang Wenyuan, who was in close contact with the corpse, looked unhappy, but he could still discuss with Zuo Zhixing calmly. Baimei wondered if the money she had spent on Jiang Wenyuan was too little. If she could go back alive , she must call Jiang Wenyuan tens of thousands more.

Jiang Wenyuan observed the wound carefully. As Zuo Zhixing said, there were indeed many repeated bite marks on the wound. "You suspect that the mouth that bit off their flesh was not the one on the face?"

Zuo Zhixing nodded, confirming Jiang Wenyuan's guess, and put his arm back on the male corpse's chest, "There is another thing that I am very concerned about."

Jiang Wenyuan stood up straight, looked around at the scattered clothes and boxes in the room, "What is missing in this room?"

"I heard that on the way back from the village chief's house yesterday, they searched for some gold and silver in the house where all the family members died, and now the gold and silver are gone." As he spoke, Zuo Zhixing picked up a blood-soaked bag that could not be discerned. A lady's handbag in an original color. "She was sitting on my right hand with a silver ring. I searched the house and couldn't find her ring."

Jiang Wenyuan quickly inspected the other male corpse, making sure that it was in the same state of death as the previous male corpse, and said to Zuo Zhixing and Baimei, who had never entered the room: "I have some ideas, let's go to the next door and talk about it."

Although Baimei was not very willing for the suspected betrayer to enter their house, she really didn't want to stay here any longer, so she didn't object anymore.Zuo Zhixing didn't know that Jiang Wenyuan had exposed his misogyny, so he maintained his demeanor and followed Jiang Wenyuan and Baimei into their room.

After the three of them entered the room, Jiang Wenyuan closed the door. He said to Zuo Zhixing, "Before explaining my point of view, I have a question for you. Are you a betrayer in this game?"

Baimei: "??!" The agreed-upon temptation, what kind of show operation is this?

Zuo Zhixing was not angry at all when his identity was questioned. Instead, he put on a funny expression, "Of course I am not."

Then Baimei looked at the two silently and tacitly with an indifferent expression.Jiang Wenyuan conducted a knee-jerk reflex experiment on Zuo Zhixing's left leg, which had been taken away.The knee jerk reflex is not under the control of human consciousness, and Zuo Zhixing's left leg did not respond at all, which proves that his calf muscles have indeed completely lost their function.

After Zuo Zhixing's suspicion was cleared, the three of them sat cross-legged in a circle on the bunk.

Baimei raised her hand first, "I didn't go in with you, but I didn't just care about fear. I have a guess about how they died. The flesh on their bodies was bitten off, and there should be a relationship between knocking teeth and tongues, and breaking finger bones." Different purposes. I can’t think of the murderer’s purpose for eating human flesh, but for the latter, I think the murderer wants to destroy the way the deceased can convey information to others.”

Zuo Zhixing couldn't help but look at Baimei a few more times. He had been thinking about the murderer looting all his belongings. Baimei's words pointed out the blind spot in his thinking. It seems that this woman is not useless.

"The murderers don't want their crimes to be exposed to prove that they know their actions are sinful. I checked the scene just now and found no soil. They are not buried bodies, or they are dead bodies that have not had time to be buried, or It’s a living person.” Jiang Wenyuan said, “I saw one of the murderer’s hands last night, his fingers were full of teeth. In the future, when collecting information, we should try our best to pay attention to people and corpses with teeth between their fingers.”

Zuo Zhixing narrowed his eyes, and his eyes became sharper, "Now it's time to get to the point, you won't suspect me as a traitor for no reason."

Jiang Wenyuan rolled up the long sleeve covering his left arm, revealing the wound he had cut open last night. The wound that didn't even touch the dermis had not healed, but tended to open outwards. Two or three white teeth the size of rice grains embedded in the wound. "Have you been infected?"

"...Are you infected?" Zuo Zhixing's paralyzed face was cracked again, "Then how could you calmly examine the corpse just now?"

Jiang Wenyuan did not respond to Zuo Zhixing's surprise. He put down his sleeves, "So you are not infected. Excluding our similar experience, there are only two differences between me and you. One, I shook hands with the hotel owner." Jiang Wenyuan took out a sealed bag from his carry-on bag. He shook the sealed bag, and the teeth inside collided with each other softly, "Secondly, I brought back the dead man's strange teeth."

"Both clues are worth investigating." Zuo Zhixing said, "Let's divide our troops into two groups."

Jiang Wenyuan nodded in agreement, "You go and meet the owner of the hotel, Baimei and I will go to the village chief's house again, and we will meet at the church in the afternoon."

Both Jiang Wenyuan and Zuo Zhixing are activists, and they act immediately after making a plan.

When Jiang Wenyuan and Baimei came to the village chief's house, they happened to meet three players, one of whom was the new female player who tried to live in their room yesterday.The novice female player sat beside the village chief's bed, tremblingly holding the village chief's hand full of white teeth between the fingers, and pouring holy water on it tremblingly.
