Chapter 594: Screams at the Inn at Night

After dinner, there was no entertainment in the desolate town of Shidu, so everyone went back to their rooms.

During the period, the four college students invited Chen Yi to play cards, but Chen Yi declined.

The special case team came to Yunshui Inn to investigate the case, not to play. As the closest human activity area to the crime scene, Yunshui Inn was the first place to be investigated.

Although everything that happened just now seemed normal on the surface, Chen Yi had already noticed some clues during his chat with Wu Changchun.

This boss may have some problems.

"On the one hand, he took the initiative to mention the murder case eight years ago, and on the other hand, he said that the public security organs required strict confidentiality. If you think about it carefully, isn't there a little contradiction?"

Chen Yi spoke in the room and asked everyone's opinions. Only by brainstorming can we get the most accurate answer close to the facts.

Before, he asked Wu Changchun if there was anything special happening in Yunshui Inn. The other party immediately mentioned that someone had died, that is, the murder case had occurred. If he wanted to keep it secret, he could completely deny it.

Chen Yi felt that it was a bit unreasonable to casually talk about the case eight years ago to a strange guest.

If it was so easy to leak, it would have been known to everyone long ago.

How many tourists have come to Shidu Town over the years? How many tourists have stayed in Yunshui Inn? Don't these people ask about the haunted things?

If they answered every question, the police would have come to the door long ago, and the Internet would be abuzz with it.

However, the fact is that few people know that someone has died in Shidu Town.

As for whether the boss Wu Changchun treated him differently or apologized for his son's rude behavior, Chen Yi simply ignored it.

Investigating complex murders requires grasping every suspicious clue, rather than rationalizing the suspicious points by yourself. That is not investigating the case, that is sick.

"Do you mean he did it on purpose?" The speaker was Teng Dabin, "You can even suspect this?"

If he didn't know Chen Yi, he would think that he had delusions.

It was just a casual chat, and Chen Yi directly listed the boss as a suspect. The problem is that he thinks everything is very normal.

At least he answered the questions truthfully, which is also very sincere, right?

Chen Yi: "He not only mentioned the dead, but also the wronged souls, and described Shidu Town as if there were ghosts lingering all year round.

Although he has been denying that he believes in ghosts, his expression and tone are evasive, using hard denials to increase credibility.

You have been observing Wu Changchun the whole time and listening to the conversation between me and him. How do you feel after listening? Did you eliminate your doubts that there are no ghosts in the world, or did you deepen your doubts and feel that the town is more weird?"

Teng Dabin thought for a while and said, "It's true. He didn't have anything before he sat down to talk. , after talking about the wronged souls, it was a bit strange. "

Chen Yi: "You have a strong psychological quality and firm materialism. If it were someone else, it would be different."

He Shixin asked: "What is his purpose in deliberately bringing up the murder case? It seems that there is no benefit to him? Could it be that he saw that the business was getting worse and worse, and wanted to spread it through the mouths of customers, so that Shidu Town would have a second spring? "

Teng Dabin was a king of flattery, and immediately affirmed: "That makes sense!"

Chen Yi was silent for a while and said: "What if he saw that we were policemen?"

Hmm?

The eyes of several people were slightly fixed and they thought about it.

This hypothesis made the originally normal Wu Changchun suspicious in an instant.

If Wu Changchun had a problem, if he saw that the six people were policemen, then the motive of taking the initiative to bring up the murder case eight years ago in front of the police was somewhat intriguing.

What did the police do in Yunshui Inn? It must be to investigate the murder case eight years ago, and Wu Changchun must be clear about this.

First, he took the initiative to bring up the murder case, then pretended to keep it confidential and not talk about the details, and finally confused the whole incident, even bringing up the wronged souls.

"Is your eye so sharp?" Teng Dabin didn't quite believe it. How much knowledge and vision can an innkeeper in a remote town have?

Chen Yi turned his head: "Brother Bin, what we are talking about now is hypothesis and inference. The authenticity is unclear, so there is no need to deny it.

But since you asked it, you can try to explain it.

Eight years ago, three people died on the dead tree outside Yunshui Inn. How many policemen do you think will come and how many times will they come?"

Teng Dabin understood it all: "You will be familiar with it after seeing it many times?"

Chen Yi nodded: "Yes, so I made this assumption instead of guessing randomly. Adults will have some professional characteristics, and the police are relatively more obvious, such as Lao He and Hanjun."

Teng Dabin looked at the two people. If we only talk about temperament, He Shixin and Cheng Hanjun are indeed more like policemen than Chen Yi, with righteousness and sharp eyes.

Chen Yi is more introverted. Let alone his profession, even his best friends can't see what he can do in the next second. Just like when he was on Sendong Island, he didn't expect the whole island to be bloodbathed without a single piece of armor left.

"Excuse me for asking so bluntly. Are we talking about the possibility that Wu Changchun is the murderer?" Teng Dabin said.

Chen Yi said: "Let's just talk about the facts at the moment. Don't think too far ahead. According to the clues we have so far, the problem of Yunshui Inn is still relatively large, but we don't know where the problem lies.

Also, Wu Rui's appearance disrupted my rhythm. Many strange things can be explained by autism.

Take Wu Rui's love of hammering the wall as an example. When guests stay in the hotel, they have already planted the seeds of weirdness in their hearts. If they suddenly hear a rhythmic knocking sound in the middle of the night, can they not be scared? Can they not have wild thoughts? After leaving, they may exaggerate and brag to their friends that they encountered a ghost in Yunshui Inn."

Teng Dabin nodded: "Yes, that guy looks scary. If you meet him face to face, you will be scared. You might think you saw a ghost.

What are you going to do now? Stay for a few more days?"

Chen Yi: "Just treat it as a trip. Relax. Let's go to Shidu Town tomorrow. It has been eight years since the murder. We don't have a very clear direction for investigation at present. We must not be anxious.

Unravel the mystery slowly."

The few people talked for half an hour and left and returned to their rooms.

Chen Yi and Su Ying had two king-size rooms, and the other four people lived in standard rooms.

It was windy at night. The wooden self-built structure on the second floor always had some links that were not handled properly, causing a squeak when the wind came. This would make the tourists who were already nervous feel that the inn was even more weird.

The hammer should have been taken away. There was no more banging sound. Chen Yi fell asleep unconsciously. The night of Yunshui Inn was quite peaceful.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Yi was suddenly awakened by a sudden scream. He immediately sat up from the bed and looked at his phone.

The screen lit up, showing 3:42, and the sky outside was still completely dark.

"Ghost!"

"There is a ghost!!"

"Ah!!!!"

The one who shouted [there is a ghost] was a girl, and the last shout came from a man.

Chen Yi quickly put on his clothes and walked to the window to look out. Everything was normal outside. The night was as dark as ink. The dead trees in the distance swayed slightly in the wind. There was nothing strange.

Then, he opened the door and walked out of the room.

The other members of the special case team also came out and met in the corridor on the second floor.

Chen Yi went to see Su Ying first. The latter was obviously just woken up, and it was impossible for the other party to be easily scared with her psychological quality.

Then, the one who shouted [there is a ghost] was Peng Xiao or Fan Wen.

The voice was distorted in the shock, and it was impossible to tell who it was from the voice for a while.

The rooms on the second floor can be seen at a glance. After the six members of the special case team looked at each other, they all looked at the location where the college students were. At this time, three people had already rushed out of the room.

Couple Zhou Junjie and Peng Xiao lived in one room, and Fan Wen and Wang Yingjie lived in another room.

The first three people were all there, and Wang Yingjie was not seen for the time being.

"Ghost! There is a ghost! Peng Xiao! I really saw a ghost!" Fan Wen, who left the room, grabbed Peng Xiao's hand to seek a sense of security, with a panic on her face.

Peng Xiao was in doubt. She knew that Fan Wen would not talk nonsense in the middle of the night. She must have seen something and was scared.

"Fan Wen, you are not drunk, right?" Zhou Junjie was more rational, frowning with some dissatisfaction.

"No, no, I really saw it!" Fan Wen spoke with certainty.

Zhou Junjie was helpless, but very brave, and stepped forward to go to Fan Wen's room: "Where is it? I'll go and see."

Fan Wen: "Outside the window, outside the window! A ghost in white is lying on the window!"

When he arrived at the door, Zhou Junjie just pulled the door handle, and at this time, Wang Yingjie's room screamed again.

"Ah!!! Ghost!!!!"

Zhou Junjie's face changed, and he gave up entering Fan Wen's room, and rushed into the room next to Wang Yingjie.

When the door opened, the sound lost its barrier and became louder, echoing in the corridor and filling the entire Yunshui Inn.

"Ghost! There is a ghost!"

"Junjie! Save me, save me!!"

"Yingjie, what are you doing! Are you crazy?! Don't move! I told you not to move!"

The scene seemed a little out of control, and Peng Xiao and Fan Wen saw this and hurried into the room to check on Wang Yingjie's situation.

Things happened too quickly, and Chen Yi and the other six certainly couldn't just watch, so they also walked over.

"Ghost! Haha, there is a ghost, I actually saw a ghost!"

...

"Mummy, mummy, hoarse!"

...

"Junjie, are you Junjie? Ahaha... Why can't I see you clearly? Why are you laughing? Are you going to give me money or not? Peng Xiao? Why are you laughing too? Is it because you are on the list of rich second generation?"

...

"Fan Wen, you are here too! I saw a ghost, I almost died, I don't want to die, I like you, I love you! Will you be my girlfriend? I know you definitely want to."

...

"Is it an earthquake? Why is it shaking!"

Wang Yingjie jumped up and down in the room. Zhou Junjie had to work very hard to control him and pressed him down on the bed.

"Wang Yingjie! What the hell is wrong with you!!" Zhou Junjie cursed angrily and slapped him in the face, trying to wake him up.

What's the difference between those words just now and being crazy.

No one was laughing, and the room didn't shake. Obviously, they were all Wang Yingjie's hallucinations.

The beating was effective. Wang Yingjie gradually calmed down, holding his head and wailing, as if he had a headache.

Chen Yi and the other six stood at the door and watched this scene.

Wang Yingjie's "nonsense" just now contained a lot of information.

It was obvious that the two girls looked unnatural.
