Chapter 4: knock on the door
He blinked blankly, and it took a few seconds to understand what this sentence meant.
The tranquility of the morning was awakened by this scream, and the sound of players hurried upstairs, inquiries, and low sobbing gradually filled the corridor outside the door.
Shen Qingcheng lifted the quilt and walked to the door, standing at the door wearing clothes that covered Yan Baba all night, "Are you dead?"
The one who died was Shi Juan, the woman who lived opposite Shen Qingcheng.
Shi Juan's room was wide open at this time, and several players were checking the situation. Except for the man who left with the deceased earlier yesterday, the rest of the players are here.
Xue Tong at the door was half hugging the crying Bai Yi to comfort, Shen Qingcheng recalled it, and the scream seemed to be Bai Yi's voice.
Facing the murder scene in the morning, it's pathetic.
Chen Ge was the first person to come out of Shi Juan's room. He covered his mouth and looked like he wanted to vomit but couldn't. His face was as white as the ankles of the deceased. spell.
He walked up to Shen Qingcheng and shouted in a low voice, "Brother Shen."
Shen Qingcheng glanced at him, "What's going on inside."
Chen Ge's face turned pale again, "Shi Juan is dead."
The name Shi Juan was still told to them by Bai Yi. Bai Yi had dinner with Shi Juan last night. Later, Shi Juan left first before she came back with Xue Tong.
"I know she is dead, I ask you how you died." Bai Yi cried so loudly, he was not deaf.
Chen Ge hesitated: "I can't see it very clearly, it seems to be suffocated to death."
Shi Juan's whole face turned purple, her eyes widened, and she shuddered when she thought of the other party's deadly look. This dungeon was too dangerous, and people died on the first day.
"No blood?" Shen Qingcheng raised his eyebrows.
"It doesn't appear to be."
"Why does Mr. Shen think there should be bloodstains?" Zhou Anan came out of it and said, "Why don't you share it with everyone."
Bai Yi was still crying, lying on Xue Tong's shoulder, twitching and choking almost passed.
Zhou An'an was upset by her crying, and said angrily: "Can you stop crying, you are the most pampered? Who hasn't grown up with parents who are so pampered!"
Xue Tong didn't know if she couldn't understand Zhou An'an, every time Zhou An'an said something, he wanted to say something.
The good man Liu Zimei rushed to smooth things out before he spoke, "Alright, alright, let's discuss Shi Juan first."
She paused, "You have to figure out whether it was a ghost or..."
She didn't say the remaining two words, but the players present knew the complete meaning of Liu Zimei, and they had to figure out whether it was artificial.
Zhou An'an and Xue Tong each took a step back, Zhou An'an said, "Let's gather in the hall downstairs and discuss what happened last night."
"Oh, I want to take a shower first," Shen Qingcheng said, pulling the wrinkled clothes on his body under a few exploratory eyes, "If you don't dislike it, I will too. You can wash it later."
The tone is very generous.
"Ten minutes." Zhou An'an dropped a sentence and left first.
"Brother Shen, then I'll go down first." Chen Ge whispered and followed behind everyone.
You said ten minutes only ten minutes, but I didn't promise you.
Shen Qingcheng pouted and stepped into Shi Juan's room.
Ten minutes later, Shen Qingcheng appeared in the hall on time, not only took a shower and changed into clean clothes, but also went to the cafeteria to pack breakfast and come back.
Wait, my heart is very angry.
It can be said that I am hungry and angry.
"When did you buy it, why didn't we see you in the lobby?" Xue Tong frowned and asked.
"There is a back door down the stairs, it's closer to the cafeteria, and I just discovered it," Shen Qingcheng said, then found a place to sit down, stretched the bag to the side, "Eat Is it?"
Lu Qi looked at him sideways, and after a while took two shaomai, "Thank you."
"No thanks, no thanks," he threw the whole bag into the man's arms, he said happily, "I have a small appetite, I'll take care of this for you."
Chen Ge silently saw the interaction between the two, and his heart was sour. If Brother Shen had a small appetite, I, I didn't eat breakfast...
"Okay, it's less than 8 o'clock now, we'd better go to dinner earlier if we settle things earlier." Zhou Anan said, then looked at Bai Yi who was huddled next to Xue Tong.
"Bai Yi, you discovered Shi Juan's death first. Can you explain to everyone why you chose to find Shi Juan so early at 7:00?"
Bai Yi squeezed her skirt, she stopped crying now, but she still choked a little, "I made an appointment with her last night to have breakfast together today, we all got up early, so I After washing, go to Shi Juan's room to find her."
"Her door was not closed, I called twice and she didn't answer me, so I pushed the door open," she trembled at this point, her tone was terrified, "As a result, as a result As you can see..."
Shen Qingcheng had seen Shi Juan's corpse, and it was indeed asphyxiated as Chen Ge said, and he was sure that it was not the act of a ghost.
Have been a celestial master for 20 years, can't he tell if a ghost kills him? It's no use to seal my yin and yang eyes!
Shen Qingcheng thought proudly and took a sip of the soup in the soup bag, ah, delicious
"I can testify to Bai Yi that she did say yesterday that she was going to have breakfast with Shi Juan today." Xue Tong said.
The reason he knew was because he invited him to breakfast yesterday and was rejected.
However, these words alone cannot clear the suspicion.
"Who are we here living on the fourth floor?" It was Montaigne who spoke, and he had been keeping a low profile before that.
Xue Tong was one of the players who lived on the fourth floor. Hearing that, Bai Yi couldn't even care to appease him, so he immediately exploded, "What do you mean? It means that the people on the fourth floor did what !"
Shen Qingcheng approached Lu Qi and bit his ear, "I think he's so stupid."
"Don't get so close to me." Lu Qi frowned and said in a low voice. Meeting Shen Qingcheng's innocent gaze, he pursed his lips and moved to the side.
"I, Xue Tong, Sister Shi Juan, Lu Qi and Shen Meiren live on the fourth floor." Bai Yi stopped Xue Tong and whispered.
Zhou Anan took over the conversation, "The people on the fourth floor tell me if they heard anything last night."
Xue Tong said first, "No!"
Lu Qi said lightly, "footsteps."
"Wow, what a coincidence, I also heard footsteps" Shen Qingcheng immediately raised his hand.
Everyone turns their attention to the rest.
Being watched by so many people, Bai Yi seemed a little nervous, lowered his head and dared not look at everyone, and said intermittently: "I, I also heard footsteps, in addition, I also heard someone knocking Door."
Shen Qingcheng looked at the speaker, his eyes narrowed.
"Who is knocking on the door? Who is knocking on the door? Is it Shi Juan?" Zhou Anan asked.
"No, it doesn't seem to be," Bai Yi raised her head and glanced at Shen Qingcheng carefully, "I live next to Shen Meiren, and I hear the sound, as if it came from Shen Meiren's door."
"And, and..." She hesitated, her gaze back and forth between Shen Qingcheng and Lu Qi.
"And what? Say it!"
Bai Yi gritted her teeth, "And I heard someone call Shen Meiren's name, it was Lu Qi's voice."
She added in a low voice, her ears red, "Everyone knows that Lu Qi's voice is very special, I won't hear it wrong."
"It's very special, very nice, very low-pitched." Shen Qingcheng nodded in agreement.
Chen Ge was about to cry when he saw that he was still thinking about making fun of others. For the first time, he felt that it was a mistake to choose to hug this thigh. Brother Shen may be the new king, but he doesn't rely on it. Spectrum!
"Are you the only one who heard it?" Chen Ge asked, reminding everyone that this was just the words of a white family.
Lu Qi also said, "I didn't leave the room last night."
One said that he had never left the room, and the other said that he heard his voice appear at the gate of Shen Qingcheng. It remains to be verified who is telling the truth.
"No wonder," Bai Yi suddenly realized at this time, "So Big Brother Lu has never left the room. I just said that I saw Shen Meiren specially bring you breakfast, then you should have a good relationship. That's right, why won't you open the door for you?"
Yes, since the relationship is good, why not open the door? Regardless of whether it was Lu Qi who knocked on the door, why did Shen Meiren choose not to open the door?
He didn't hear? or not in the room at all...
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Shen Qingcheng took a tissue to wipe his mouth and burped, "Look at me? Don't you want to explain the story line, is it time for work?"
It's early in the morning and the weather is cool, so it's time to go out for a walk. He is a Celestial Master, not a policeman, and solving a case is beyond his ability.
Zhou Anan stood up, "Shen Meiren, please explain what you said in vain, otherwise..."
She can't kill, but she must not let Shen Meiren move freely before completing the task and leaving the dungeon, otherwise she will not know how she died.
"Otherwise what?" Shen Qingcheng was curious.
Zhou An'an: "Otherwise we can only lock you up first."
In this magical world, being trapped in the same place is basically the same as waiting for death.
"Oh, then I'm so scared." It would sound more realistic if his expression wasn't so indifferent.
Lu Qi: "All your guesses are based on what Bai Yi said is true."
"Yes, yes," Chen Ge hurriedly echoed, "If what she said was false, didn't she arrest the wrong person?"
"I, I didn't lie, I really heard Big Brother Lu's voice..." Bai Yi lowered his head aggrievedly, "I just said what I know, not Shen Meiren's words, he Just deny it, why suddenly change the subject..."
The death of Shi Juan has been discussed all the time.
What she said made sense, Shen Qingcheng almost believed it.
Nowadays, the little girl does not study well all day long, she is thinking about something.
He abducted the person next to him, "When did you change your name?"
Lu Qi: "What."
"Otherwise why did she call you Big Brother Lu, is the surname Lu Ming Big Brother?"
"Shen Meiren!" His attitude angered Zhou An'an, "Please be serious, this concerns the lives of the rest of our players!"
"You don't believe me when I say I didn't do it," he shrugged innocently, "Okay, okay, I'm serious. In vain, are you so sure I did it?"
White: "I didn't say that."
Shen Qingcheng: "You didn't say that, but that's what you mean. I look good with dirty water on me?"
The players' attention was on the two of them, Bai Yi flinched and backed away, as if frightened by his tone, "It could also be a ghost..."
Who knew that Shen Qingcheng had a subtle expression when he heard it, instead of being aggressive before, he raised his eyebrows, "Did you hear a knock on the door last night?"
Bai Yi didn't understand why he suddenly asked this, he hesitated for a moment and then nodded.
Shen Qingcheng's eyes became complicated and full of sympathy, alas, I was embarrassed to pursue it.
The two sides disagreed, and the scene was deadlocked. When everyone was silent, he sneaked up to Lu Qi and asked, "You really don't know who the murderer is?"
Lu Qi looked down at him, his black eyes looked particularly deep, he didn't say whether he knew who the murderer was, but was very sure, "You know it was man-made."
"!" Shen Qingcheng subconsciously covered his mouth.
If you don't say it, don't say it, why expose people's bottom line, he angrily distances himself from the man.
In a few minutes.
"Are you all there?" Liu Wangyu came in from the door and saw everyone gathered in the hall, and smiled, "Just so, your work has been arranged, and it should have been sent to your mobile phones. inside."
He was still dressed as yesterday, with black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and there was a lot less bloodshot in his eyes. It seemed that he had a good rest last night.
Shen Qingcheng followed the crowd and took out his mobile phone:
"Identity: Teacher of entertainment class, Class 1, Star Kindergarten. Attachment: Activity classroom password xxxxxx."
He forgot that he was still angry with the man just now, and asked Lu Qi, "What are you?"
Lu Qi: "Security."
Yo yo yo, this figure is very suitable.
After confirming that everyone knows their identity, Liu Wangyu said: "Today, a group of children's class uniforms and textbooks will be delivered, and the layout of the classroom and bookstore will be up to the teachers."
After saying this, he smiled at everyone and quickly left the apartment.
"What do we do now?" Liu Zimei asked. She is a good-natured person, honest and Wen Tun, but she has no opinion.
"Let's eat first," Zhou An'an said tiredly, "With your identity, the place that was locked yesterday should be open to us, everyone should hurry up and collect information."
"Then Shi Juan's death doesn't matter?!" Xue Tong was dissatisfied.
"Do you know who did it?" She snorted coldly, stepped on high heels, and pushed Xue Tong away heavily.
Shen Qingcheng and Lu Qi were not with everyone, they had breakfast.
After everyone left, Lu Qi, the newly appointed security guard, went straight to the kindergarten security office. Shen Meiren, the entertainment teacher, followed Lu Qi at a leisurely pace.
Lu Qi didn't say a word, didn't ask why, Shen Qingcheng couldn't hold back, "Why don't you ask me why I'm following you?"
"Whatever you want."
"You said that, the security guard has to protect me. You can see how they aimed at me in the hall just now, it scared me!" He clutched his chest and was heartbroken, " You actually want to lock me up, I'm most afraid of the little dark room!"
"My last name is Lu."
He was taken aback, "What?"
The man stopped speaking, Shen Qingcheng thought about it, hesitantly, "Big Brother Lu?"
Lu Qi's footsteps paused, and he suddenly accelerated when Shen Qingcheng didn't react in time, and quickly walked to the front.
"Hey, wait for me!" Accelerator didn't say a word.
Well, did he forget something?
The security room of Xingxing Kindergarten is built next to the teaching building. There is a sign with blue and white characters on the door frame. Lu Qi is standing at the door. a seam.
He just reached out and pushed the door open.
"You're walking too fast, it's very hot!" Shen Qingcheng complained behind him. He trotted for two minutes before catching up with this man, and his body was a little hot.
Seeing Lu Qi's movements, he pushed the door open, and a cold air mixed with dust rushed towards his face.
"Cough cough," he immediately hid behind the man and waved, "How long has this place been opened? It's so dirty."
The security room is not too big, the light is dim, and it looks very simple. In the center of the room were two desks that were placed side by side. There were two computers on the desks, which were turned off.
There is a monitor screen on the wall opposite the table, the screen is black at this time, and there are several wires that have been violently torn on the side. In addition, there are many blank papers scattered on the ground.
"A month and a half." Lu Qi said, turning on the lamp on the wall, and walked in.
It's been a month and a half, and there are still 20 days left to start school, so it's no use for summer vacation.
"Are you here to adjust the monitoring?"
"Hmm."
Shen Qingcheng hesitated whether to go inside, there was too much ash, he only washed it in the morning. At this moment, a huge force came from his waist, and Shen Qingcheng was suddenly pushed in.
Then with a bang, the door was closed.
