Chapter 187

After searching Eugene's study and bedroom, nearly three hours have passed. Although there are still many details that can't be searched thoroughly, it's not necessary.

An Yizhi initially thought he could find clues about the motive of the murder here, but now it seems that he only knows that Eugene's pharmaceutical work is somewhat unusual, and he put a lot of drugs at home.

It is a common way to find the murderer according to the motive of murder. There was a saying that humans are the only creatures that kill each other except for the three factors of territory, spouse and food.

That's true, but there must be a reason for humans to kill each other.

Whether it is involuntary homicide caused by impulse or premeditated murder, its essence has a motive. Even murderers who enjoy killing can get happiness and satisfaction from killing.

By asking the old housekeeper, the players know that Eugene's career is not small. Most of the big business people have enemies in the open and in the dark. There are countless guys thinking of his disappearance, and there is no way to check them one by one.

This is one of the reasons why an Yizhi insists that the prisoners are among these people. The system will not arrange an unsolved task for players. If other people outside buy murders, the behind the scenes can't be found out by a copy.

If the prisoner and the person who cut the suspension bridge are the same person, there are at least four suspects, namely the four guests.

In terms of motivation, Monson is the most likely killer. After all, there is a commercial competition between the two. But if Mrs. Green didn't lie, munston, who was held by his wife, had no chance to stab Eugene behind his back. Besides, with his size, he can be easily detected even in the dark.

Another way of thinking, which of these four people has the ability to quietly go around Eugene's back and return?

The answer is Charles.

He was a soldier and a fighting hero. His skill is naturally very different from that of other ordinary people. But he was the farthest away from Eugene. Even if he started immediately after the power failure, he didn't have enough time. Less than two or three seconds after the scream sounded, I called. I crossed a distance of more than ten meters in such a short time, and I had to ensure that no one found it quietly

To put it in a bad way, Charles's disabled left leg can't do it at all.

So the answer seems obvious.

Hammill.

He had time to go around Eugene's back and cut and return to his seat in three seconds. Moreover, he used to be a surgeon and was very familiar with the structure of the human body. He could find the position of the vest with a flash of light and cut into his soul. The image of cowardice is likely to be a scam disguised to paralyze others.

However, he seemed to have no motive for killing. After all, Eugene gave him a stable job after he lost his status as a surgeon.

Of course, perhaps the injury to his hands was related to Eugene, or he stubbornly passed on his injury to Eugene.

All this is just speculation. Besides, it does not rule out the possibility of accomplices, such as hamir's murder and another helper's cutting down the suspension bridge. It's also possible that Mr. and Mrs. Green have problems and have confessed to each other in advance.

Just now munston clamored to go back to his room to have a rest. According to normal thinking, when it is not clear who the murderer is, it is the best and most rational choice for everyone to stay together and wait for someone to rescue them tomorrow. An Yizhi and Tu Hongyu, two "future people" from the era of the information explosion, can't have imagined this.

But an Yizhi didn't stop it.

The reason mentioned above is more reasonable.

Why did the prisoner cut down the drawbridge?

Isn't it a better choice to pretend to be innocent after killing people, or encourage everyone to leave here and escape as soon as possible?

This shows a fact.

He, or they will continue to kill.

So an Yizhi holds a very bad fishing idea. Anyway, the main task does not require the number of survivors. He is waiting for the prisoner to act again. Even if he can't find useful clues at that time, at least one suspect can be excluded.

From this point of view, NPC really has no human rights when referring to an Yi

But three hours later, it was still very calm.

After searching Eugene's room, an Yizhi planned to return to the old house to continue the search, but the housekeeper said that Eugene had strictly ordered not to enter the old house after midnight. Even if the owner was dead, he still planned to continue to carry out Eugene's instructions.

After several unsuccessful attempts to persuade, an Yizhi temporarily gave up his plan to return to the old house. Anyway, there was nothing to explore there. He had seen all the rooms, all of which were guest rooms and empty rooms without furnishings.

With umbrellas, the three came to the place where the old housekeeper had changed the fuse, which was a small building behind the old house. There is a huge water tower cylinder outside the house. The old housekeeper said that it is an oil storage tank for diesel, which will be replenished at regular intervals.

When the door was opened, the machines in the building still roared. Three diesel generators and huge batteries formed a unit, which was enough for the daily use of this shanzhongyang Pavilion.

The old housekeeper first turned off the generator. He said that it would be turned off before rest every night and would not be turned on again when needed the next day. Then he led them to the position of the anti fuse.

"The spare fuse is in the box over there. The locked box over there is the place where the fuse is installed. Do you need me to open it?"

Ann nodded. The old housekeeper took out a bunch of keys and picked the smallest one to open the safe.

"There seems to be no problem"

"Well"

An Yizhi glanced at TU Hongyu and answered him carelessly, but he was a little suspicious of the old housekeeper.

The safe is too clean

The working principle of fuse is that when the circuit is overloaded, it will blow itself to protect the circuit and avoid fire. However, the inside of the fuse box is too clean and there is no trace left after the fuse is blown. Perhaps it was just a coincidence that there was no trace, but this situation made the old housekeeper's suspicion rise rapidly.

Although the old housekeeper has no time or opportunity to commit a crime, he has a full opportunity to create a power outage and provide convenience for the crime!

Considering the condition that there are many prisoners, this case is more complicated.

Besides the old housekeeper, who else is the collaborator? Which of the 8 people is innocent?

Then they looked at the box where the fuses were stored. In addition to the spare fuses, there were also some maintenance tools such as wrenches and screwdrivers. They didn't find anything else suspicious.

He had doubts in his heart. An Yizhi was silent. He didn't directly question or tell Tu Hongyu. The key in the old housekeeper's hand is very important. As long as they want to investigate other places, the assistance from the old housekeeper is essential. We can't scare the snake at the moment.

"Mr. ANN, is there anything else you want to see?"

"Well... There's one, the room next to the servant's room"

It was the place where Tu Hongyu explored after entering the foreign hall, but he didn't dare to go in and search directly.

"Wine cellar?"

The old housekeeper was puzzled. He said:

"There are some owner's hidden wine, and there is dust everywhere. Is it related to the incident?"

"It's just curiosity, curiosity, maybe it's about"

Hearing Ann's perfunctory answer, the old housekeeper didn't care about his tone. He hesitated a little and led the way happily.

——Ah!

When the three passed under the overpass connecting the old house and the new house, a scream came from the other side of the old house.

As soon as the two players heard something happened, they immediately ran in the direction of the sound source. The old housekeeper was out of strength and had to hang far behind.

At this time, a figure ran towards them in panic. While running, he gave out intermittent screams of breathlessness, looking as if he had been greatly frightened.

It was Tu Hongyu's turn to appear. An pointed to his small arms and legs. It was difficult to subdue a frightened adult. Instead, Tu Hongyu's body of 300 kg + pressed the man firmly on the ground with just a "touch to touch".

"What? How's this stuff sticky?"

Tu Hongyu complained that neither of them had a light source. It was a rainy night. They couldn't see what it was.

"Mr. an, Mr. Tu, wait, wait for me..."

The old housekeeper also rushed over at this time. He flashed a flashlight at the person held down by Tu Hongyu and said in surprise:

"Mark? What's the matter with you?"

He is one of the servants, the man servant.

With the help of the flashlight, the two players also saw mark.

He didn't wear a raincoat, he was soaked up and down, his pupils were exaggerated, his face was in uncontrollable panic, and he didn't know what to mutter.

What makes Tu Hongyu feel sticky is actually

Blood!

He quickly pulled him up and checked up and down. He didn't look hurt, but where did the blood come from?

"Mark? Mark!"

The old housekeeper tried to call him a few times, but he didn't respond. Tu Hongyu didn't dare to let go, because as soon as he let go, the servant had the impulse to escape.

Gentle methods don't work, so try rough ones.

Without saying a word, an pointed and slapped three big mouths. He hit the manservant with blood at the corners of his mouth. His empty eyes finally recovered some rational look.

"Calm down, you're safe now. Tell me what happened!"

The footman woke up like a dream. He first looked at the two players, then turned his eyes to the old housekeeper and cried.

"Don't worry about crying. What's going on?"

"Mary, Mary is dead!"

"Mary is dead? Make it clear to me!"

The old housekeeper grabbed the manservant by the shoulder and shook him hard.

"Who is Mary?"

"The maid, I remember Eugene once mentioned"

The two players whispered, while on the other side, the servant said with tears and snot:

"We see! We see!"

"What do you see? Don't leave half of what you say, will you?"

"Ghost! There are ghosts in the old house! Ghosts in white!"

The old housekeeper turned pale, and the expressions of the two players were not very good-looking.

The detective case is mixed with ghosts? What the hell with the system!
