Chapter 7 You Guys Smoke
Jiang Cheng went to the second floor yesterday and found it consistent with what the innocent girl said.
The boy's and girl's bedrooms are easy to distinguish. One is filled with all kinds of dolls, and the other has posters of various military weapons on the wall. There are also military journals on the table, which is full of military fan flavor.
Then both groups of people turned their attention to Jiang Cheng and the innocent girl.
"The family atmosphere of this family is not very harmonious. We found many broken plates and cups in the trash can, some of which were stained with blood," Jiang Cheng said.
The innocent girl added: "There are still some marks on the wooden stair handrails. We analyzed that they may be scratches left by nails."
This is a clue that cannot be ignored. Several people came to the stairs and followed the position of the innocent girl's fingers. Sure enough, they found some traces left by friction.
The strong man went up and touched it with his hand, his face changed slightly, "Yes, it's scratches."
A family of four, a poor family atmosphere, broken tableware, scratches, and a young girl who was imprisoned
No matter how you combine them, it seems to point out a family tragedy.
There was once a girl who was abused here.
"So what do we need to do next?" The male clerk whispered, "Should we rescue this poor girl?"
"Whatever happened here belongs to the past, and we are powerless to change the past," said the woman with a mole on her lip, "What we can do is to find out the truth and then end the mission."
"But haven't we already deduced the truth?"
The strong man became more and more impatient and said, "What the hell! How was the girl abused, who was involved in the abuse, is the girl dead or alive now? How can we end the mission without knowing these!"
The male clerk was so scared that he dared not say a word after being yelled at by the strong man.
The innocent girl looked at the male clerk with pity in her eyes. He was too weak and not smart. It would be difficult for him to survive the mission.
Even if he escaped this time by chance, he would not be able to survive the mission next time.
Gurgle
Everyone looked at the place where the sound came from. The fat man covered his stomach a little embarrassedly, "That"
"Forget it, the search of the first floor is almost done, let's prepare for dinner," after a morning of tossing, the strong man also felt a little hungry.
Just as everyone was about to go cook, a voice came from behind, "We haven't checked there yet," Jiang Cheng pointed to the bathroom where the middle-aged man's body was, "I think there may be clues there."
Hearing this, everyone's face became solemn. Everyone knew what Jiang Cheng was thinking, but it was difficult to convince himself to check.
After all, someone had died there, and entering the bathroom might touch the taboo that led to death.
When allocating the search range, everyone tacitly avoided there.
After all, reason overcame fear. The strong man took a deep breath and said, "He is right. There may be clues hidden there. Although there are some risks, everyone will die if the task is not cracked."
The woman with a mole on her lip rarely refuted. She obviously understood the interests involved, but she still said sarcastically, "Who will go?"
At this time, Jiang Cheng interrupted and said, "Who has been to the bathroom on the first floor?"
Everyone raised their hands.
Jiang Cheng counted the number of people and continued, "Then everyone may have triggered the death taboo, so this is not just to find clues, but also to save their own lives."
The innocent girl frowned and asked, "Can't we all go in together?"
The strong man stroked the stubble on his chin and nodded, saying, "The space inside is too small. If too many people go in, they won't be able to do anything if something happens."
"That's right," Jiang Cheng nodded, "I guess two people will be enough."
"Who will volunteer to go in?" The male clerk who was shrinking at the end said excitedly.
Everyone was silent.
"Okay, let's draw lots to decide, so that it's fair to everyone," Jiang Cheng spread his hands.
"Okay!"
"I agree."
After some preparation, Jiang Cheng took out a few slips of paper, two of which were shorter, and rolled them into a small roll in front of everyone, and put them in his palm one by one, "The person who draws the short slip goes in, no problem."
"This method is definitely fine, but" the fat man stared at the small rolls in Jiang Cheng's hand and swallowed his saliva, "but why are there only 5 rolls of paper, but there are 6 people now."
Others also discovered this problem and were looking at Jiang Cheng in confusion.
"Because I don't draw," Jiang Cheng said naturally.
Everyone was stunned, and then a little angry. The strong man shouted loudly: "Why don't you smoke?"
"Because I haven't been to the bathroom."
"You have been here for a day and a night, and you have drunk so much water, how could you not go to the bathroom?" The male clerk seemed to have found a way to vent, and shouted hysterically: "You just want to cheat! Just let him go in alone!!"
The woman with a mole on her lip stared at Jiang Cheng with a bad face, and sneered: "You will pay the price for being cunning here."
"I know," Jiang Cheng said calmly, "but I really haven't been to the bathroom, I have evidence."
He raised his hand and pointed in a direction, probably the window sill. At this moment, a gust of wind was blowing, lifting a corner of the curtain, revealing two mineral water bottles placed behind.
One bottle was full, and the other was only half filled, both of which were light yellow, which was definitely not the normal color of mineral water.
It exuded an attractive luster in the morning light.
"This is" the male clerk suddenly opened his eyes wide.
"Hmm," Jiang Cheng nodded, and admitted their guess a little embarrassedly, "I think it's dark in the bathroom, so I..."
The sturdy man looked at Jiang Cheng with a complicated expression, ""
Then the woman: ""
The male clerk: ""
The innocent woman: ""
The fat man: "You are such a clever little ghost!"
Since Jiang Cheng had never been to the bathroom, it was hard for everyone to say anything. The remaining five people drew lots, and Jiang Cheng stretched his neck to watch.
In the end, the sturdy man and the male clerk were lucky enough to be selected.
When the two opened the bathroom door, they found that the middle-aged man's body was gone.
The bathroom was not big, and it was impossible to hide the body of an adult.
"This is not the world we live in," the woman behind him suddenly said: "It's normal to have some incomprehensible things happen, just get used to it."
Just as she said, there was no surprise on the sturdy man's face, but the male clerk was in trouble. He cried and stayed in front of the door, and was kicked in by the sturdy man.
The rest of the people waited outside.
The search was very efficient. In less than 5 minutes, the two came out, and the sturdy man was holding a piece of white toilet paper.
First, the bathroom door was closed, and everyone walked to the living room. The strong man unfolded the toilet paper, and there was a strand of hair inside.
"I found it in the bathtub in the bathroom. It wasn't there yesterday."
The strong man was very cautious and didn't even touch the hair with his hands.
The hair was very long, and it was obvious that it was a woman's.
