MTL - Card Room-Chapter 481

Chapter 481

The crisp sound outside the window caused the teammates to silently silently, and the noisy rattle sound suddenly sounded in the summer noon, letting Xiao Lou's spine pass through a trace of chill for no reason.

He took a deep breath and walked to the window, pushed open the window and looked out

The sound came from the alley behind the inn.

The alley was shrouded in shade and the light was dim. At this time, there were no extra pedestrians in the alley, only a young man, dressed in a navy blue gown and a hat of the same color, dressed as a scholar.

The man was holding a rattle in his hands, shaking it constantly. The projectiles on both sides of the rattle hit the drum surface, making a rhythmic clang, and a pattern on the drum surface was clearly printed with the sheep in the zodiac .

The painted lambs come to life, and the man walks forward while playing with a rattle, with a smile and a brisk pace. Xiao Lou looked back to Yu Hanjiang and asked his opinion with his eyes. The latter lowered his voice and said, "Not like a murderer."

Xiao Lou also feels that this person is not like a murderer, is it just a coincidence?

Thinking about it, I saw a girl dressed as a maid suddenly ran into the alley from the other side, quickly walked to the man, and gaspedly asked, "Master, where are you, Mrs. Young, looking for you everywhere?"

The man smiled slightly, and said warmly, "Don't worry, I'll buy something fun for the child." He shook his rattle as he said, "I heard that if the child kept crying at night, use this Do not cry when you tease. "

The girl said helplessly, "Buy toys for the young master and let the next one go. Why do you run this trip yourself"

The man waved his hand, "Okay, I'll go back here."

The two walked out of the alley in tandem.

In the next room, Ye Qi sighed slightly when she opened the window and saw the scene. She lowered the window and held down the headset. "I was really scared. I heard the rattle, and I thought the murderer had come to the door."

Qu Wanyue smiled and said, "It should be just a coincidence. The young father, came out to buy toys for the children, and passed the alley behind the inn. We just happened to talk about the rattle. Everyone is tense before they startle."

Xiao Loudao "Have you noticed the pattern on his rattle"

Ye Qidao "I saw it, is it a lamb"

Shao Qingge said very firmly, "I went to the old man's booth today and I saw all the signs of the Chinese zodiac. The one in his hand is indeed a sheep. His children should belong to sheep."

Xiao Lou looked at the rattle from the Zhao family. Because the rattle is a toy for children, the producer will make some beautification when drawing the pattern. The little tiger on the drum is very cute and wears red clothes. The anthropomorphic painting method is obviously more popular with children.

Yu Hanjiang followed Xiao Lou's gaze to the drum face and said, "The young father mentioned just now that the child cried in the middle of the night. Is it possible that his child is under one year old? Is this the year of the sheep?"

Shao Qingge said, "It should be the Year of the Goat. At the stall of the old man who sells toys, the rattles of the sheep were painted on the front, and there were some colorful face-painted people, and they also pinched the shape of cute lambs."

Xiao Lou calculated it carefully, and said, "In the order of the zodiac signs, this year is the year of the sheep, and the famine occurred 20 years ago should be the year of the pig. The tiger is 9 years older than the pig, assuming that the Zhao and Chen families discovered The rattle belongs to the murderer. The zodiac of the murderer is a tiger. Then, when the famine occurred 20 years ago, the murderer was probably just a 9-year-old child. "

Yu Hanjiang added, "It may also be 21-year-old, 33-year-old, and 45-year-old adults."

For a tiger, 12 years in a round, the murderers may be 9 years old, 21 years old, 33 years old, 45 years old.

Xiao Loudao "That is to say, the current murderer may be 29, 41, 53 and 65 years old"

Yu Hanjiang said, "The probability of being 53 and 65 years old is relatively low. The average life expectancy of the ancients is not long. The elderly people over 50 years old will have various diseases in their bodies. It is difficult to kill dozens of people in silence. So, the most likely is that the year the famine occurred, the murderer was a 9-year-old child or a 21-year-old young man, and now he comes back to get revenge, age 29 or 41. "

After locking in the age, the scope of the survey will be much narrower.

All young people and middle-aged people in the town who are tigers, aged 29 and 41, have the potential to commit crimes.

Xiao Loudao "I don't know if there is an institution similar to the government in this town. If you can find the township's rosters, files and the like, it would be better to investigate."

Shao Qingge said, "Since it is a small town, there should always be a mayor. We can take a look at lunch time."

One morning passed, at this time it was lunch time, and everyone went downstairs to eat in batches.

The inn obviously became lively, and many passing travelers came here to stay and dine.

Shao Qingge reappeared with his old tricks. He found the second-order dish and ordered some of the most expensive dishes. When the other party served, he easily put a small piece of silver into the second-order shop and whispered and asked, "Xiao'er, please ask me, you mayor. Where am I a businessman from a foreign country, I want to visit. "

Dian Xiaoer happily collected the silver, and whispered to Shao Qingge, "Guest, you are looking for our mayor. His name is Qin Feng, and he lives in the courtyard at the east end of Xiushui Lane. Our mayor, everyone is alright, He often helps old people in the town pick water and chop wood, and whoever has a child will also visit him in person. Although he is very young, the folks respect him. "

Ye Qi wondered, "How old is he this year, is he married?"

Dian Xiaoer scratched his head and said, "Less than thirty, he hasn't gotten a wife yet. However, the matchmaker who told him that he was about to break through the threshold of his family, and he was rejected by him. He said he already had a heart and had a marriage contract , He has been waiting for the woman who has a marriage contract with him, alas, it's really an infatuation. "

When Shao Ye and the two asked for news, Ye Qi kept pressing the bulge on the headset, so other teammates could also hear the information spoken by Xiao Xiaodian in a low voice.

Xiao Lou looked at Yu Hanjiang and asked softly, "This town mayor is suspect"

Yu Hanjiang nodded his head. "We can't get into the town at night, and we can find a way to investigate him in the afternoon."

Lu Jiuchuan stayed in Taohuayuan outside the town.

Taohuayuan can only exist for 3 hours, and will disappear automatically when the time is up. At this time, Taohuayuan had disappeared, and he and Tang Ci simply found a cool place in the woods to hide. The discussion of the teammates, the two of them have been on the sidelines. Hearing this, Lu Jiuchuan couldn't help but interjected, "Will Xiao Tang and I stay outside the town, or should we both investigate it."

Tang Ci also wanted to find something to do. He held down the headset and whispered, "The town looks normal during the day. Many residents come in and out. The cloak skills of my brother and I are still there. You can find opportunities to sneak into the town. Long home. "

Xiao Lou thought for a while and said, "Okay, then please trouble Brother Jiu and Mr. Tang to check this Qin Feng."

The small town during the day is not like a ghost town maze at night, so there is no need for the two brothers Jiu Tang and Tang Ci to stay outside the town to meet. What's more, at this time, both Tao Yuanming's card skills have been cooled, and it's useless for them to stay outside the town. It's better to come in and help.

Last night, Xiao Lou, who visited the town, and others, the cloak of invisibility has cooled, and the card skills of Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci are still there. It is possible to use the 30 minutes of invisibility to do a survey.

Yu Hanjiang whispered, "If the murderer is the mayor, the residents of the town trust him very much, he should find a way to control everyone's consciousness, it should be easy to do. Brother, the key point of your investigation is the age of the mayor. , Background, and background. Second, try to find the roster information of the townspeople from him, and use it to take pictures directly after finding it. The stealth cloak is only 30 minutes, and you can go back quickly. "

Lu Jiuchuan simply said, "Understand that we will act."

The two didn't go into the town to eat, they directly opened the resource to supply milk, chocolate and instant noodles in the card to make up a meal, and then they found a place where no one was wearing an invisible cloak and quickly dived into the town.

In accordance with the instructions of Xiaodian II, the two of Jiutang soon came to Xiushui Lane, a very secluded alley with several families living in it. The mayor ’s residence was at the end of the road. .

In order to make sure that there was no one in the house, Lu Jiuchuan threw the bug on the wall and listened for a moment. He didn't hear any sound. The two of them turned over into the courtyard.

Many herbs are drying in the yard, and you can smell the smell of herbs as soon as you walk in.

If the mayor is not at home, it may be something to go out, which is convenient for the two to investigate.

Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci pushed the door into the room and the interior was very simple and cleaned very neatly.

All the bamboo furniture is very similar to handmade. Two rows of bamboo chairs are placed in the large living room, which can accommodate dozens of people for a meeting at the same time. There is a study room and a bedroom next to them.

There is an old solid wood cabinet in the bedroom. There is an iron lock hanging on the door, and important information should be stored in it.

Lu Jiuchuan opened the iron lock with a master key. Sure enough, he saw a thick stack of books placed inside. He quickly took out the book and opened it, allowing Tang Ci to use a drone to photograph the contents.

In these books, the family members and birthdays of all residents in the town are recorded in detail.

Lu Jiuchuan noticed sharply that the two missing persons, Zhao Zeping and Chen Yu, were recorded in one of the blue rosters, and their names were drawn with bright red crosses in red pens.

Those red crosses are shocking.

In a roster, more than 90% of them are red crosses. I do n’t know Zhao and Chen. Many people were also crossed.

Tang Ci breathed a sigh of relief. This roster is just like a "dead roster". Is the murderer killing people according to the roster?

He quickly took these pictures with a drone, and then asked Lu Jiuchuan to restore the roster in the previous order, put it back in the cabinet, and then locked the iron lock again.

The two went out of the bedroom and came to the study.

The study room is filled with all kinds of books, including some books about medicine, herbs, acupuncture, and a row of shelves filled with medicine bottles of various colors. Those bottles are marked with the name of the medicine. Understand some pharmacology.

Lu Jiuchuan looked around and whispered, "Look, see if there are hidden doors, secret rooms, etc."

Tang Ci carefully observed the bookcase. All the books were neatly arranged. Most of the books had a small amount of dust on them. The open bookcase and the dust on the books were normal.

However, there is a row of books, which is obviously much cleaner than the books next to it.

Tang Ci stepped forward and pulled out the thickest compendium of Materia Medica. At the next moment, a rumbling sound suddenly came from his ear. The bookcase in front of him was actually divided into two, revealing a dark door in the middle.

There is a long step behind the dark door leading to the underground. The light in the room is extremely dim, and the step can't see the end.

There must be a secret in this secret door

The two were about to go down, and as a result, the door of the yard was suddenly pushed open.

A footstep came towards the study.

The owner of the yard is back.

It's too late to go down and find out. I can only take pictures of the secret room at the fastest speed.

The drone was flying faster than the two of them climbed the stairs. Lu Jiuchuan said in a low voice, "Using the drone"

Tang Ci quickly released the drone to take pictures in the secret room.

Almost at the moment he withdrew the drone, the door of the living room was slowly pushed open by the man.

Walking through the living room is the study room where the two are located.

Tang Ci hurriedly put the book back, closed the door of the dark room, and Lu Jiuchuan quickly came to the window, found Tang Ci's position by feeling, gently grasped Tang Ci's wrist, and pushed the window open, "Fast away" , The URL has been changed, the URL has been changed, everyone re-collect the new URL, the new URL and the new computer version of the URL will be opened in the new URL after the collection, the old URL has been opened recently, and the old URL will not open in the future, please remember :, Free and fastest update No anti-theft, no anti-theft error report, please ask for a book, please add qq group 647547956 group number
