When A Destructive Wolf Joins An Escape Game

As Huzi said, he ran to the kitchen and took out the spray bottle and showed it to everyone.

Light yellow liquid, most likely drug.

Gu Mozhi didn't say it directly, but stared at it for a while pretending to be curious, and then frowned.

The calm man was the first to notice the strangeness in his expression, and asked, "Brother Gu, do you know what this is?"

Everyone immediately looked at Gu Mozhi.

"Should know..." Gu Mozhi hesitated for a moment, then said, "There is an open drug making book in the study room. The method of making the drug was written the night it was opened, and it described the appearance of the drug, and this The light yellow liquid is very similar. I think the copy is so obvious, it should be the kind of drug written on it."

"Have you been to the study?" the man asked.

Gu Mozhi nodded: "I appeared in the study from the beginning, which is the separate lounge inside. I also found a locked wooden box under the bed in the lounge. There is nothing useful in the study other than that. No, there are several manuals inside that record the history of this villa."

Gu Mozhi succinctly told the story of the villa and the background of the dungeon.

The man thought for a while, then asked again: "You were in the study, did you meet Xiao Liu when he opened the door to check?"

Xiao Liu is the one who said that he opened the door and looked at it when he first entered the game.

Hearing this question, Gu Mozhi didn't respond, but Xiao Liu's forehead broke out in sweat.He lied, so he was a little upset.He opened the door to check later, and found that several rooms were empty, so he thought that there were no players in these rooms.

But now he remembered one thing, maybe when he opened the door to check, the players had already checked and left, so there was no one when he looked.For example, when he went to check the study room, he didn't see Gu Mozhi inside.

Gu Mozhi shook his head blankly: "No, maybe it's because I first appeared in the lounge inside the study. There is a small door separating the lounge from the study. The door was closed before, so I probably didn't hear any movement outside. "

After hearing what he said, Xiao Liu quietly let out a sigh of relief.It turned out that there was also a rest room. Maybe Gu Mozhi had just entered the rest room when he checked it, or had already gone out.

The man nodded after listening, let the two of them go, and apologized: "Sorry, I was a little aggressive just now. But I have no way to confirm who is innocent, so I can only work hard if I encounter any doubts." Be clear, so as not to misunderstand the good people or let the bad people go, I hope you understand."

"It's okay." Gu Mozhi answered two words without distraction, obviously he didn't really forgive the other party.Xiao Liu repeatedly waved his hands to express that it's okay, and dared not continue to discuss this matter further.

Everyone saw it in their eyes and thought about it in their hearts.

That Xiao Liu's guilty conscience was a little obvious. In fact, his concealment skills are also good, but it can't hold back that everyone's level is similar.If it's a cute new player, he's definitely not a problem, but it's not enough to fool an old D-level fritter.

On the other hand, Gu Mozhi was obviously lying, and he was not in a hurry.The man's reaction after the apology is very telling. Only a confident detective would directly express dissatisfaction and disdain for other suspects.

To be honest, they really wanted to show disdain for the man, let him tell the good and the bad, and they didn't want to hear a greasy apology after being aggressive, no matter how reasonable it was.In particular, he has a criminal record, and he tried to imply that they were detectives before, so he is absolutely trustworthy.

To be honest, it seems a little guilty to be so eager to prove your identity as soon as you come up.And now I'm trying to get to the bottom of something that is not detailed, it seems that I am anxious to find a scapegoat.

Huzi saw that their topic was drifting away, so he quickly pulled it back: "Aside from this unknown liquid, I also found that there is very little fresh food in the kitchen. I mean vegetables. There are a lot of meat in the freezer, but vegetables are not. There are too many. What I heard from Brother Gu is that there is a month’s supply of food here, but this is a foreign country, so I don’t know if there is a habit of storing vegetables in the cellar, and it’s good to stock up on Chinese cabbage, but I’m afraid there is only wine.”

This topic really has nothing to do with the case, but eating is a big deal, and everyone didn't say that he was making a fuss out of a molehill.Although you don't have to worry about food and clothing, who wouldn't be happy if you can eat better.

"We will only stay here for five days, so there should be enough in the refrigerator?" A little girl said, "The key is that the refrigerator is full of ingredients. Do we want to cook for ourselves?"

Pei Yuan reminded at the right time: "Are there no servants here?"

The daughter of a big merchant family, even if she knows how to cook, she can't cook for nine people every day.And the eight of them are guests, and it is unlikely that they will be responsible for cooking. There is no reason to let the guests do the work.So there should be servants here, and Gu Mozhi also said that usually the master doesn't live here, and the servants live here and take care of them every day.

His words directly awakened everyone, yes, where did the servants of this manor go?

Old Zhao, the male player who came back from the outside, quickly said: "There is a bungalow behind the villa, where the servants live. I went to see it when I was looking for clues in the yard. The servants are resting there, saying that the lady doesn't like them. Follow the wait, usually only come when needed."

After all, they can do things like serving tea and pouring water by themselves with their own hands and feet, and only need chefs and cleaners to come a few times a day.It's not long after breakfast at this point, and the cleaners usually come to clean it early in the morning, so I didn't encounter it.

"So there's no butler here?"

"There shouldn't be any. I just saw two cooks and three cleaners. It was a family, a couple with three young children, one man and two women, and the cooks were the father and son."

Pei Yuan nodded, two chefs, then he can rest.The cook on the main god's side is not bad, and the food tastes good, and Momo in his family is very happy to eat.It's not good to keep cooking for Momo in the dungeon, it's too ostentatious.

The players didn't know that Pei Yuan brought up this topic to make sure whether he wanted to cook or not. After discussing this, they went on to talk about the clues in the kitchen.Huzi said that there are no other important clues, it seems that there is a knife missing in the kitchen, because the other knives on the knife rack are neatly arranged, but there is only one place missing.

"What kind of knife?" the man before asked.

Huzi recalled: "I can't tell the difference between these knives, but I know they are relatively narrow sharp knives, and I don't know what they are used for cutting."

"Maybe it's a fruit knife." A girl knew a little about these kitchen utensils, "It should be a fruit knife, and fruit knives are often used as murder weapons. Didn't you say that there was a knife stuck in the chest of the corpse before? It might be this one. "

"Let's go up and take a look in a while."

After Huzi finished speaking, the man took the initiative to tell everyone about his discovery: "I was in the greenhouse, and found that there were a few plants here that seemed to have had their leaves or petals picked by someone. I didn't realize it at first, but there is a set of tools in the greenhouse. , There are plant residues on the filter gauze, medicine mortar and pestle inside, I searched carefully and found that some plants were picked partly."

Gu Mozhi asked, "What kind of plant is it?"

He described it carefully, and Gu Mozhi nodded after listening, saying that it was the raw material needed to make the drug as written in the book.

Other useful information is gone, and this clue can only tell everyone that the murderer used local materials.The female player Luyao frowned after hearing this, and felt that there was nothing useful so far. What's the point of just finding the crime tool, and it doesn't point to any player.

Pei Yuan interrupted her: "You are wrong, and many clues have been exposed now."

"How to say?" Huzi cheered up. He was the least good at this kind of reasoning, otherwise he would not have volunteered to call someone. He just wanted to make more contributions, so as not to be rejected by his teammates because of his poor reasoning ability.

"Have you heard of criminal profiling? Use clues to infer the characteristics of criminals, so as to locate the target. Although we are not professional, we can also see a little way." Pei Yuan explained carefully, "First of all, the books in the study, The murderer spread out the book in the study room where everyone can go, in order to confuse the public, so that everyone becomes a suspect and may have read the book."

Everyone nodded, it was obvious.

"Secondly, there is a description of the drugs produced on the spot. The murderer did not prepare the drugs in advance. Either he decided to kill on a temporary basis, or he was worried that he would be found to have a record of buying drugs if he brought the drugs himself, and his identity would be exposed."

"But if it's a temporary idea, how come there is a potion making book in the villa, and there are those plants in the garden? Could it be that the book and the plants were arranged by the murderer?"

Pei Yuan shook his head: "Then it's better to buy medicine directly, wouldn't it be more conspicuous to bring books and plants?"

Right.

So maybe it's just a coincidence.

"I guess the murderer knows a little bit of pharmacy. He planned to kill someone on the spur of the moment, and then remembered that there was a kind of drug making material he knew in the greenhouse he visited, so he directly used this scene to make the drug. Didn't A Gu say that Exactly, it is recorded in the book that the raw materials of this kind of drug are very common, and most of them are suitable for ornamental plants, so it is not surprising that there will be some in the greenhouse."

As for the book on pharmacy, maybe it was a coincidence, or maybe the murderer found it by accident in the study after he came here, and then thought of it when he wanted to kill someone, so he simply used what he learned in the book to make medicine.

"If this is the case, it means that the murderer is either well-read or interested in pharmacy, otherwise he would not have found this book in the study." There are so many books in the study, it is difficult for people who do not go there often to find that there is pharmacy Book.

"But the murderer dared to show us the pharmacy book, which means that he certainly doesn't go to the study often, at least everyone doesn't know that he often goes there, and they don't know that he is interested in pharmacy. Otherwise, just ask the servant who often goes to the study to read, It is easy to locate the murderer. Since the murderer placed the books in this way, it is to remove the suspicion and will not shoot himself in the foot."

Following his words, the man analyzed: "Yes, in this case, people who go to the study very rarely are very suspicious, because they are the most likely to use this trick to clean themselves up."

Pei Yuan didn't admit it or deny it. This was said by the man himself, and it has nothing to do with him.
