sincerity of lies

"What's the situation now?"

This is a very small space, less than six square meters. Put a single bed on the wall, a table next to the wall parallel to the bed, and a sink standing at the head of the bed. This small space is filled to the brim.

Of course, there are two doors in the room, one door is the door leading to the corridor, and the other door is between the table and the sink, which is the door to the bathroom.However, the toilet does not belong to a single room, it is sandwiched between two rooms and shared by two people.

"Didn't you already know?"

Meng Lingshan replied.His gaze first fell on Ji Xun, who was sitting cross-legged on his single bed. This cramped space seemed too cramped for a tall person.

Then his eyes shifted to Ji Xun's fingers.

Ji Xun had already removed his mask, but the gold ornaments on his body were not removed. He was still wearing a gold chain and a gold ring. The gun from Ah Tang they were talking about just now was spinning on the index finger that wore the gold ring.

black gun.

gold ring.

There are also idlers.

"I did know the locations of the two murders through the number of pages in the corners of your book. But didn't you have a third murder?" Ji Xun paused meaningfully, "I can see the speed of the crime scene. Can’t keep up with the speed at which homicides happen to you.”

The "Flower of Evil" that was taken from the tea room before was placed on the table, with two blank notebooks beside it.The notebook was owned by Meng Lingshan when he came to this room. It might be the same as the disposable toothbrush and toothpaste, and they are distributed uniformly.

"Boss Jiang was poisoned to death."

Meng Lingshan said that he briefly told Ji Xun about the situation at the next few scenes, including the horror story of Mazu hanging over the murder case like a shadow.

Ji Xun twitched his brows slightly, lost in thought.

"However," Meng Lingshan said again, "Why are you still here?"

"?" Ji Xun raised his eyes, "Contact you."

"A few words are enough." Meng Lingshan remained unmoved, "Your task on board is not to investigate cases."

Meng Lingshan was right, Ji Xun did not come on board to investigate the case.

He was in order to photograph the ship's criminal evidence.

"But before I came up, I didn't expect that such murders would happen here one after another." Ji Xun said slowly, "And it is related to the story of 40 years ago. This story can only be known from the few people who are still alive. , and under normal circumstances, it would be difficult to know about this matter...Meng Lingshan, aren't you curious? This may be the root of all tragedies."

"I'm curious, so I'm on this boat. Don't forget who asked you to get on board." Meng Lingshan was a little impatient, "But things have to be done one by one. The final result of this blizzard serial murder case, It's not up to us to control, we might as well control what we should control first - and now everyone has been driven into the room by Mr. Liu and imprisoned, the murderer has almost no chance to succeed - you go down, take pictures of things and then come up, everything Don't delay."

Ji Xun was silent for a moment, then nodded: "You are right."

"Then hurry up." Meng Lingshan said casually, "Did you leave the back door?"

"Actually not."

"..."

"Don't worry. I can take care of this little problem myself."

Meng Lingshan's gaze stayed on Ji Xun's spinning fingers.He realizes he's been staring too long, like a moth to a flame.

"Leave the gun." Meng Lingshan said, "I found the murderer, I will restrain him, and wait for you to come up and ask the story of the past."

"Considering that you're all being herded into rooms and jailed, I doubt you'll have the chance."

Ji Xun replied, his spinning fingers finally stopped, and the gun that had been dancing on his fingertips also stopped, fell down, hit his Vajra Mantra ring, and made a soft sound.

"However..." Ji Xun thought for a moment, "The top is indeed more dangerous than the bottom. How about this, you hold the gun first, and after I go down and take pictures, I will come up and join you."

After finishing speaking, Ji Xun turned the gun head upside down and handed the handle of the gun to Meng Lingshan.

At this moment, the two of them heard the voice outside at the same time——

No, it wasn't a sudden sound of talking, or walking, or anything obvious.

That is, the movement of someone's breathing suddenly fluttering, so slight that it seems to be an illusion that occurred when their nerves were highly tense.

But it can't be an illusion.

The illusion does not appear to two people at the same time.

Ji Xun put on his mask and jumped off the bed, as light as a lynx waking up, without making any sound.

After standing still, he stopped moving and gave Meng Lingshan a wink.

Meng Lingshan understood, and turned to the door.

The room is too narrow, which is not conducive to fighting, let alone the use of guns. In this cramped space, the corridor is as wide as the door, and there is no way to hide behind the door and sneak attack.

It's better to go out and solve it outside...

Meng Lingshan's hand held the doorknob, and then he pressed down suddenly, opening the door!

Almost at the same instant, a shadow rushed in from the outside and bumped into Meng Lingshan's body!

Not only Meng Lingshan, but Ji Xun who was behind was also momentarily stunned by this sudden situation. Those who overheard their conversation knew that they had guns in their hands, and dared to rush in!

Does the other party have a gun too?

The opponent didn't have a gun, so he had to rush in. This was his only chance!

In the blink of an eye, the man and Meng Lingshan were fighting together in a dazzing melee. They fought in a restrained but fierce manner. Although they didn't make any noise enough to attract attention, they were fatal.Ji Xun raised the muzzle of his gun, and it was difficult to aim at the two people who had been overlapping and moving.

"Stop!" He shouted without thinking, "Otherwise I'll shoot!"

Nobody stopped.

Be it Meng Lingshan or the person who rushed in, none of them stopped.

The gun didn't have enough deterrent power at this time!

Meng Lingshan's arms strangled the visitor's neck, but this was more like the result of the visitor's initiative to cut in. He turned back and threw Meng Lingshan to the ground.

There was no time left, Meng Lingshan shouted: "Ji Xun!"

Needless to say to Meng Lingshan, Ji Xun had already seized the opportunity and tapped his finger on the trigger. At this moment, someone raised his face, a silver mask covering half of his face, the same mask as his face.

The moment of shooting.

Ji Xun recognized him.

"Ho-"

He slammed his other hand at the wrist holding the gun, and with a flick of the ballistic, he passed the silver mask's face with a short distance, hit the wall, and went out through the wall.

The inertia of this blow caused Ji Xun to stagger two steps, his heart contracted suddenly, as if someone was dragging it into the palm of his hand to be crushed, and then let it go suddenly, all the blood that was squeezed out , rushing back at the same time, shrinking and expanding, the pain seemed to be shattered and exploded.

Then he collected himself, stood firm, and shouted: "Stop, he is Huo Ranyin!"

Still no one stopped.

Meng Lingshan gave him face, and when he fought back, he sternly said: "He's not! Mr. Liu has personally checked everyone's face. If he is Huo Ranyin, how does he identify himself? Huo Ranyin can't get on this ship !"

After saying that, he punched the silver mask's face.

The silver mask didn't dodge - not quite dodge.

He let the mask on his face be knocked off by Meng Lingshan's fist, and with the clang of the mask falling to the ground, Huo Ranyin's face was exposed to two pairs of eyes.

Meng Lingshan's movements were slow.

Huo Ranyin didn't, so he simply and neatly twisted the person on the ground again, finally raised the corners of his mouth, and laughed mockingly, his eyes moved between the two of them, and he said slowly, one word at a time:

"It's a pity, it's me. I'm really sorry that it didn't go as you expected...Ji Xun, and your good partner, Meng Lingshan."
