"No...it's not me! I didn't kill anyone!" Zhong Ran shouted excitedly, dancing with her arms and legs, trying to convince everyone present that she was really not a murderer.

But even her boyfriend Qu Rui, after hearing Xie Ya's words, subconsciously distanced herself from her.

Zhong Ran couldn't believe it, and roared, "I really didn't kill anyone!"

"Then why is your brooch at the scene of the crime?" Ding Shengwen didn't really believe that Zhong Ran would be the criminal. In his opinion, Zhong Ran didn't have the guts, not to mention that she killed Gou Xinbai, which would not do her any good.

After all, Gou Xinbai is dead, and the biggest beneficiary is Yu Jinglei. Gou Xinbai belongs to the rich generation and has no parents or brothers in his family. That is to say, Yu Jinglei, the new wife, is his only heir to the property.

As if thinking of something, Ding Shengwen's gaze towards Yu Jinglei couldn't help but become meaningful.

"I..." Zhong Ran hesitated to speak, and after a long while said: "I did go to Jing Lei's wedding room, but I went to find Jing Lei, but when Jing Lei was not there, Xinbai let me Go in and wait."

"But you just said that you haven't been to Jinglei's room, and you didn't make sense of it. Who knows if you're lying." Pei Xiaorong folded her arms and looked displeased.

At night, she was alone in a room with her friend's newlywed husband, a lonely man and a lonely girl. Who knew what Zhong Ran's heart was. As Yu Jinglei's mother, Pei Xiaorong naturally couldn't understand Zhong Ran.

"Auntie, I really didn't kill anyone, I... Is there any benefit for me if I kill Xinbai? I just don't want to be misunderstood by lying!" Zhong Ran looked helplessly at everyone present, hoping that there was one of them I can understand and trust her.

"It makes sense. Sister Zhong and Mr. Gou have no grievances and no enmity. Killing him is not good for her." Meng Yangyu murmured after thinking.

Seeing someone finally willing to believe in him, Zhong Ran's eyes gradually lit up, "Yes, I have no reason to kill him."

After slapping Zhong Ran, Yu Jinglei who didn't speak again suddenly said, "No, you have a reason."

Zhong Ran looked at her in astonishment, "Jinglei...I'm your best friend, how can you say that about me?"

There was a sarcastic smile on Yu Jinglei's face, "Yeah, best friend, we grew up together, you will steal everything from me, as long as you see me live better than you, you will feel uncomfortable, anyway, you are not the first Do this once."

As she spoke, her eyes slid across Ding Shengwen's face. Ding Shengwen stopped, touched his nose, and avoided her gaze.

"Where did you go to find me tonight? You obviously went to Xinbai. Others don't know what you're thinking, don't I know? You just can't see that I have a good life. Maybe Xinbai rejected you. You became angry from embarrassment, and you killed him while he was not prepared in a fit of anger?"

What Yu Jinglei said made everyone present dumbfounded. Meng Yangyu whispered into Xie Ya's ear, "I thought the two of them had a very good relationship, but I didn't expect them to be plastic sisters."

Xie Ya didn't express any opinion on this, "Senior Zhong, what time did you leave?"

Zhong Ran was stunned, seeing Xie Ya's indifferent and calm gaze, her whole body trembled, "Around eight...about eight fifty."

"Was Mr. Gou still alive at that time?" Xie Ya was taking notes with a pen and paper at some point, and tapped the tip of the pen on the snow-white paper a few times, leaving black marks.

"Alive! Xinbai sent me to the door." Zhong Ran spoke quickly, her eyes fixed on Xie Ya's face, as if Xie Ya was her savior at the moment.

Xie Ya nodded, "I don't think Senior Zhong is lying. If she didn't use drugs, it would be very difficult to kill a 1.8-meter adult male from the front. There were no traces of struggle at the scene, or Mr. Gou had no defense against the murderer. power, or Mr. Gou is unsuspecting and very close."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes shifted from Zhong Ran to Yu Jinglei. Being watched by so many eyes, Yu Jinglei shuddered, "Xie Ya, what nonsense are you talking about? I love Xinbai so much, and we are newly married. May kill him!"

Yu Bofei seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, and slapped his palm on the table, "Nonsense! Why is Jinglei a murderer, I think you are a shit stick!"

Pei Xiaorong also looked at Xie Ya with an unkind expression, "Sometimes it's Zhong Ran, another moment it's Jinglei, I think you are the most like a murderer!"

Seeing this scene, Ding Shengwen held up his teacup to cover the smile on his lips. He had the same thought as Xie Ya, but he couldn't say it out loud. Isn't this scolding? Just open a dyeing workshop.

Yu's mother took Yu Jinglei up the stairs, and Yu's father followed behind. He obviously didn't want to hear Xie Ya's nonsense anymore. Yu Jianying looked embarrassed, and he didn't dare to say it. In fact, he thought what Xie Ya's senior said was very reasonable, although He didn't think the murderer was his sister.

The torrential rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and the time was already past midnight. Everyone broke up unhappy and went back to their rooms. Although these people didn't want to see me, Xie Ya still kindly reminded: "It's best not to leave alone at night, and find someone you trust to treat you. Together, take care of each other, and remember to lock the doors and windows."

Yu Jianying nodded, "Okay, thank you senior, and you too."

"Well, see you in the morning." Xie Ya's heart was shrouded in a dark cloud, he could only pray that everyone could see the sun tomorrow morning safe and sound.

"Old Xie, do you have a clue?" Meng Yangyu asked him quietly.

Xie Ya shook his head, he looked like everyone, but he didn't look like anyone.

If it wasn't for the murderer's great disguise, there might really be No.12 hiding in this room.

There is a pair of eyes hiding in the dark, watching them, watching them perform a farce like a clown.

This conjecture made Xie Ya's scalp tingle and his hair stand on end.

Walking upstairs quickly and standing on the stairs, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the portraits hanging in the corridor. There were three different "Green Dogs" hanging on the second and third floors respectively. There are six in total. Under the night lights, they have different shapes The green dogs here, not only do not give people a sense of vitality as described on the Internet, but reveal a strange gloomyness. They seem to have life, and they are quietly watching everything that happens in the house.

"Old Xie, what are you doing standing on the stairs?" Meng Yangyu's voice suddenly interrupted Xie Ya's endless thoughts. Only then did he notice that his hands and feet were cold, and when he stepped on his leg, his toes stepped on the ground On the ground, there was a trace of numbness after freezing.

The two returned to the room, blocked the door with a cabinet, checked the window carefully, and then lay down on the bed. The two of them decided to sleep with the lights on. What if a lunatic kills people indiscriminately?

Naturally, Yu Jinglei's wedding room couldn't sleep anymore, and Gou Xinbai's body was still there, so she found a room to stay in the guest room on the second floor. Pei Xiaorong was worried, and stayed to guard her at night.

Yu Bofei didn't take it seriously, thinking that Xie Ya was scaremongering, he rejected Yu Jianying's suggestion to sleep together, and went back to the third floor and closed the door to sleep.

The night was quiet again, the heavy rain washed the ground, and the raindrops crackled on the glass, as if they were going to penetrate the glass and smash into the house.

After confirming that Yu Jinglei was asleep, Pei Xiaorong got up on tiptoe, put on a coat, opened the door and walked out.

After making sure that there was no one else in the corridor, she knocked on the door of the next room.

"Xiao Rong, you are here." A smile appeared on Xing Hongbin's face, his fat face was glowing with oil, Pei Xiaorong frowned, and there was an unconcealable disgust in his eyes.

……

After the torrential rain washed away, the air was filled with the fragrance of soil and vegetation. Xie Ya turned his head and saw the rising sun, illuminating the entire land, dispelling all the darkness of last night.

Meng Yangyu, who was wrapped in a quilt, was very anxious, she didn't know when she would roll to the ground, and she was still sound asleep at this moment, showing no sign of waking up.

Xie Ya took a look at the phone, it was almost noon, and the two of them were fast asleep.

Kicking Meng Yangyu up from the ground, the two washed up and went downstairs. They are safe, but they don't know if others are like them.

Surprisingly, most people were sitting at the dining table downstairs, eating brunch, and the aroma of broth filled the air.

"Googoo..." Meng Yangyu's stomach growled, and he rubbed his stomach. He was indeed hungry.

Yu Jianying had just entered the kitchen and was scooping up broth with a bowl and a spoon, "Morning senior, good morning Brother Meng."

"It's early too, bring me a bowl, I was frightened all night yesterday, now I need to make up for it." Meng Yangyu handed over a big bowl.

Yu Jianying smiled, and filled a big bowl full for Meng Yangyu. Yu Bofei and Ding Shengwen ate quickly, and it was already the second bowl.

Meng Yangyu was carrying two bowls of broth. They got up late, and the meat in them had been eaten up.

"Here, thank you."

"Well, thank you." Xie Ya took the broth from Meng Yangyu, and the rich aroma wafted into his nose.

"Ugh—" He stood up abruptly and let out a violent retch.

Everyone who was eating well frowned and wanted to curse.

Meng Yangyu didn't know what happened to Xie Ya, so she quickly put down the bowl that was about to be brought to her mouth, and went to pat Xie Ya's back, "Old Xie, what's wrong?"

Xie Ya grabbed his wrist, his eyes were red, "Don't eat..."

Finally recovering, Xie Ya wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth with a paper, "You all stop eating."

"You are a big man, why do you have so many things all day long?" Ding Shengwen was at odds with him at first, and when he heard this, he poured down another big mouthful of broth and wiped his mouth with unsatisfied desire, "Such a delicious broth, how can it be so delicious?" Nothing to drink."

Yu Bofei and his wife also felt that Xie Ya was a pushover, he had no skills, and they gave advice everywhere, completely ignored what Xie Ya said, picked up a spoon and continued to eat.

Qu Rui and Zhong Ran didn't know what happened all night. They were gluey right now, and they couldn't see that they had quarreled at all. You feed me, and I feed you. They ate a lot.

"Old Xie, why can't you eat it? Is there something wrong with this broth? The meat is rotten?" Of course Meng Yangyu knew that Xie Ya couldn't say such things for no reason.

Xie Ya's face was condensed, his lips were bright red, and his eyes were frosty, "This is human flesh."

A stone stirred up waves, and Yu Jianying, who was the last to come out with the bowl, slammed the bowl into pieces with a bang, and the broth inside splashed everywhere, and the thick white soup, like brains, splashed onto his shoes.

"You...you don't want to be a sensationalist here! Why do you say it's human flesh?!" Yu Bofei drank two bowls by himself, and he didn't miss the first bowl of meat.

Xie Ya looked around, his eyes darkened, "Don't you feel that there is one person missing?"

Several people looked at each other, Yu Jianying exclaimed: "Uncle Xing didn't come down!"

Xing Hongbin's room is on the second floor, just next to Ding Shengwen.

"Senior Ding, did you hear anything last night?" Xie Ya looked at Ding Shengwen.

Ding Shengwen was still immersed in the fear that what he ate might be human flesh, and he couldn't hear what Xie Ya said.

Xie Ya saw that everyone's faces were ashen, so he took the initiative to say, "Go to Mr. Xing's room and take a look and you will know the answer."

"That's right! I can tell at a glance that it's you kid talking nonsense!" Ding Shengwen was unwilling to believe that what he ate was human flesh. He was furious at what Xie Ya said, his whole face flushed, and he strode towards the second floor. .

Pei Xiaorong stood next to Yu Bofei with a dazed expression and an ugly expression on her face. Yu Bofei turned his head and gave her a contemptuous glance, and walked towards the second floor with his hands behind his back.

The left half of her face was a little red and swollen, as if she had been slapped, and even with thick foundation, she couldn't completely cover it up.

Seeing this scene, Xie Ya half-closed his eyes and held his chin thoughtfully.

Ding Shengwen called Xing Hongbin several times, but no one came to open the door. He couldn't help panicking, raised his fist and slammed on the door forcefully, "Uncle Xing! Are you inside, right? Open the door!"

There was a large group of people blocking the door, and the dull knocking sound echoed in the silent room. The atmosphere gradually became dignified, and the expressions on everyone's faces were brilliant.

"Stop knocking! Where's the key? Take out the key!" Qu Rui could no longer bear this desperate knock on the door, because the unknown was so terrifying, and it made people unable to resist going in the direction they were most afraid of. Thinking, it's better to cut the mess quickly and know the result quickly.

Several pairs of eyes stared at Yu Jinglei, Yu Jinglei shuddered, and said tremblingly: "In... the wedding room."

There is still Gou Xinbai's body in the wedding room, even if it is her new husband, Yu Jinglei dare not take it.

So everyone's eyes fell on Xie Ya, and Yu Bofei was even more unceremonious, ordering Xie Ya to get it.

"There's no need to be so troublesome." Although Xie Ya has restrained his temper a lot after growing up, the wildness in his bones is still there.

For someone like Yu Bofei who is pretentious and bossy, Xie Ya doesn't like to talk to him even if he is an elder.

He grabbed the doorknob, lifted his long legs, kicked the door, and the door opened.

In order not to damage the scene as much as possible, Xie Ya deliberately grabbed the door handle, and when he pushed the door open, there was no corpse behind the door.

However, the situation was worse than he imagined.

People from behind came in crowded, Xie Ya stood at the front and stopped, not going any further.

"What are you doing here?" Ding Shengwen pushed him irritably, and walked in, wanting to make sure he didn't eat human flesh.

"Ah-ah!!!" Ding Shengwen had just taken a few steps forward when he screamed hysterically from the sight in front of him, his legs were weak, and he sat down on the ground, almost fainting several times.

Xie Ya lowered his head and glanced at him, Ding Shengwen was so frightened that he lost control.

"You guys better not come in." Xie Ya's voice was tense, but he was still calm. He had experienced many bizarre things before, and he was much more courageous than before, so he could barely maintain his composure.

Ji Lingqu is not here, neither is Sister Tong and the others, so he can only support himself now.

Yu Bofei didn't believe in evil, he craned his neck to take a look, and was so frightened that he yelled out, he lost all dignity, if it wasn't for Pei Xiaorong and Yu Jianying supporting him, he would definitely be sitting on the ground like Ding Shengwen.

Xing Hongbin's corpse was hung from a headlight by a rope. No, his current appearance is no longer a corpse. There is only a piece of skin left on his whole body, and his internal organs have been hollowed out. Obviously, those internal organs and flesh and blood that disappeared, It was the pot of broth that everyone shared this morning.

"vomit--"

Someone continued to vomit violently, as if they were about to vomit their stomachs out together.

Only Xie Ya, Meng Yangyu, and Yu Jianying haven't had time to eat. Even so, the three of them still feel sick to their stomachs. They probably don't want to see meat anymore, let alone eat it.

"No...impossible...how could this be..." Pei Xiaorong was bewildered and murmured to herself in panic.

Yu Bofei grabbed her wrist, exerted force on his hand, leaving a bruise, and yelled in a low voice, "Shut up!"

The blood on the carpet had dried up. Xing Hongbin should have been killed last night and hanged up. Now the body is beyond recognition. Even if the forensic doctor came, he might be helpless, let alone Xie Ya, a layman who only learned a little bit.

Zhong Ran couldn't stand the ensuing death anymore, she grabbed Qu Rui's hand in a nervous breakdown, "Let's go, let's go, I don't want to stay in this ghost place again!"

Like her, Qu Rui had just vomited, saliva still remained at the corner of her mouth, and her whole body was weak. The two supported each other, tried several times before barely standing up, and ran out staggeringly.

The two of them ran out, and the rest of them couldn't bear it anymore, so they chased after them, eating some breakfast, obviously they should leave this ghost place on a yacht as soon as they woke up, but they also knew that the rain didn't stop until almost noon, even if Without breakfast, there is no way to leave the island immediately.

"Where's the yacht?!" Zhong Ran roared, and she rushed to Yu Jinglei like crazy, grabbed her collar and shook her hard, "Where's the yacht? Where did you put the yacht?!"

Yu Jinglei's eyes were straightened, she opened her mouth, and after a while she let out a hoarse voice, "It was still parked at the pier yesterday... I don't know..."

"Who? Who of you hid the yacht? Hand it over!" Qu Rui took out a fruit knife from her pocket, held the handle tightly with trembling hands, and pointed the tip at the people around her.

He is different from Zhong Ran, he is Zhong Ran's boyfriend, and he is not familiar with this group of people at all. He has only met Yu Jinglei and Gou Xinbai a few times, and now he looks like a murderer to everyone.

"Calm down, there was such a heavy rain last night, how could someone come out and hide the yacht." Meng Yangyu pulled Xie Ya back, trying to reason with Qu Rui.

Qu Rui's eyes were red, and he couldn't listen to what other people were saying. He stabbed the tip of the knife forward like a frightened bird if anyone wanted to get close.

"Calm down, maybe the yacht was washed away by the heavy rain last night." Yu Jianying persuaded cautiously.

Xie Ya went up to check it, and there was no sign of damage. Although it is not ruled out that the storm was too strong and the yacht was washed away, considering the current situation, he is more inclined to man-made.

"Who was the first to go downstairs this morning?" When the atmosphere was tense and anxious, Xie Ya suddenly asked an irrelevant question.

Yu Bofei frowned and said, "I dozed off less when I was older, so what's wrong with being the first one to wake up?"

"Then, did Uncle Yu see who made the breakfast?" Xie Ya didn't directly mention the broth, but just the word "breakfast" made many people start to vomit.

"No! That thing was there when I woke up!" Yu Bofei's voice was hoarse, and he was about to vomit stomach acid. If it wasn't because he was the first to wake up and smelled the pot of broth was too fragrant, how could he eat two bowls in succession.

The second one to go downstairs was Pei Xiaorong, but he didn't have much appetite, and drank a bowl of broth very slowly.

Ding Shengwen was the third to go downstairs. He chatted with Yu Bofei for a while, thinking that the broth was made by Pei Xiaorong, and praised the broth several times.

The torrential rain last night covered up all traces of the crime, and no one heard the abnormal movement. Xing Hongbin's room was next to Ding Shengwen's, but he heard nothing, only the roar of thunder and the sound of rainstorm.

"I remember that Auntie and Sister Yu lived on the second floor last night, which room?" Xie Ya's eyes were like deep pools with dark currents, and Pei Xiaorong, who was being stared at, was terrified, as if she was going to be sucked into the whirlpool.

Yu Jinglei held Pei Xiaorong's hand and replied to Xie Ya: "It's next to Uncle Xing, but my mother kept comforting me last night, and we fell asleep very late."

"Did you hear something?" Xie Ya lowered his eyelashes, his gaze fell on Yu Jinglei's hand.

"No, the thunderstorm was too loud last night. The sound insulation effect of this villa is very good. After closing the doors and windows, you can basically hear nothing." Yu Jinglei narrated calmly. Pei Xiaorong beside her smiled stiffly, her eyes dodged, After hearing what Yu Jinglei said, she echoed one after another: "Yes, yes, we didn't hear anything."

Xie Ya didn't answer the words of the two of them, but looked at Qu Rui who had been ignored for a long time, "Mr. Qu, I advise you to put down the knife. If the murderer is among us, you will only anger the other party."

"Ah!!!" Qu Rui suddenly threw the fruit knife in his hand to the ground, then squatted down to pick it up after a while, folded it and put it in his pocket, as if he used the fruit knife as a self-defense weapon.

Xie Ya didn't stop him, nor did he tell him that he had the ability to quietly disembowel a man who was nearly 1.8 meters tall in the middle of the night.

He stared at everyone here, Yu Jinglei and Zhong Ran are unlikely, unless they have helpers, Yu Jianying, Ding Shengwen, Yu Bofei, Qu Rui, among the four, Ding Shengwen has the best physical strength, but he has no reason to kill.

Yu Bofei and Pei Xiaorong seemed to be hiding something, last night Pei Xiaorong and Yu Jinglei slept in the same room, so how did the injury on her face come about?It is impossible to be beaten by Yu Jinglei. Yu Jinglei does not have such great strength, so Yu Bofei is the only one. If it was not beaten this morning, it means that the two of them went out last night.

"No one came to rescue us, are we going to be trapped here to die? I don't want to die!" Zhong Ran cried bitterly, holding her head. Her despair infected the people around her. Everyone turned pale and kept chanting don't want to die.

Even Meng Yangyu, who is optimistic and cheerful, couldn't help panicking, "Old Xie, what should we do? Are we going to die here?! I've always seen movies like this!"

"I won't die. Don't think about it. We didn't go back. Naturally, someone will notice something is wrong and come to us. There is still a lot of food in the villa, which is enough for us to last for a while." What Xie Ya didn't say was that based on his experience , Ji Lingqu will come to him tomorrow at the latest.

What was he afraid of with Ji Lingqu around? He was startled, and suddenly realized that he had trusted Ji Lingqu so much before he knew it, and regarded him as a family member and something he could rely on.

I hope Ji Lingqu's anger will dissipate quickly. He is worried that if he is not killed at this rate, he will die of depression.

This island is so depressing.

They walked back and saw the villa standing in front of the forest from a distance, like a huge coffin.

Xie Ya rubbed his eyes, it wasn't his illusion, the villa was really shrouded in a thick cloud of black air, maybe it was the dead air that Ji Lingqu was talking about.

He subconsciously looked at Yu Jinglei, who was covered in lifelessness. It was strange that Yu Jinglei was safe and sound after two murders happened one after another.
