Chapter 512 Lost Track

"He" is waiting.

The discovery of the corpse was within "he"'s expectation, and the fear and anxiety shown by these stupid mortals was exactly what "he" hoped to see. In fact, these mortals are not just the audience of this show, they are also the sacrifices of that terrifying and great existence that is about to come into this world!

Feel honored, stupid, humble mortals, how honored you are to be the first to be qualified and honored to face that existence, and to be one with its soul and flesh and blood.

Thinking of this, "he" showed a cold smile, but the corner of his mouth just turned up, and he saw the girl blocking the gate with a holy book in her hand looking at him curiously, "he He hurriedly lowered his head, and at the same time, "he" was also mocking the girl's stupidity deep in his heart.

Belief in gods that don't exist at all is really stupid, I really want to see what kind of reaction you will have when you meet the real god......

Thinking of this, "he" clenched his fists and smiled secretly.

The time for the great comeback is coming! And I will show you the infinite divine power of that existence here! !

At the moment when someone was huddling into a ball and daydreaming, Duanmu Huai was also leading other people to search the room.

No useful clues were found in the infirmary or warehouse. As for Williams' room, Duan Muhuai also went in to check it out—since Ling Nu didn't respond, there was probably nothing there.

Next, he came to another guest room, which was the room of the body discoverer Fred Winston.

Although he was the first discoverer of the body, it didn't mean he was free of suspicion. On the contrary, in many cases, the first discoverer at the scene of the case is more suspicious. It's not that Duanmuhuai has any investigation experience, it's simply that this kind of thing happens too much in the game, and each of these cultists is like a movie king possessed. victim's.

The more I see it, the more I get used to it.

However, when Duanmuhuai pushed open the door of Fred's room and saw the scene inside, everyone was startled.

On the floor of the entire room, there are circles and patterns similar to those around the corpse before, and candles are lit all around, with a gloomy look, which is not right at first glance!

"Is Mr. Fred the prisoner?!"

Seeing this, the bodyguards and doctors were also taken aback. Of course, they also knew who the first discoverer was, but as ordinary people, they must subconsciously think that the first discoverer should not be the prisoner. This logic is actually quite normal. After all, ordinary people Generally speaking, if ordinary people do something bad, they hope to be discovered as late as possible. How can someone not only not cover up their crimes, but actively expose them?

But now the evidence is convincing...

"Well, Fred is not necessarily the prisoner."

Duanmuhuai seemed rather calm and waved his hand.

"But those weird magic circles here are obviously the same as those in the smoking room!"

"It's similar, but I don't know if the effect is the same."

Duanmuhuai walked into the room while talking, then he lowered his head and twitched his nose.

"Does Fred smoke?"

"this……………"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's question, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and then the female student from the master's college nodded.

"He smokes! I saw him holding a pipe in his hand when I came out just now!"

"Very well, let's continue."

Duanmu Huai silently made a note in the small notebook in his heart, then turned and left. Ling Nu didn't say anything, which meant that there were no useful clues in this room... That's right, Duan Muhuai was too lazy to rummage through boxes and cabinets to find things. With Ling Nu as an expert, he was naturally willing to be a tool man.

After that, Duanmuhuai went to other rooms to go around again, and finished the room on his own side. Except for the room of Fred, the body finder, who had something tricky, the other rooms were normal.

Then there are three cabins on the opposite side, which respectively belonged to the deceased Williams and his bodyguard Dott, followed by Arthur Dott.

Duanmuhuai had already been to Williams and Dort's room, and nothing unexpected was found. On the contrary, it was Arthur's room that gave Duanmuhuai a pleasant surprise. What Duanmuhuai didn't expect was that when he pushed open the door and walked into Arthur's room, he saw the black cat lying on Arthur's shoulder seemed to find something, and suddenly let out a cry, then jumped down and rushed directly to Arthur's room. Into the ——— trash can in Arthur's room.

"Hey, hey, don't go anywhere."

Seeing the black cat pounced into the trash can, Duanmu Huai was also taken aback for a moment, and hastily stretched out his hand to lift Ling Nu out of the trash can. Then he lowered his head and looked at the trash can. There is a pile of shredded paper—and it's not ordinary shredded paper, it looks... like a photo?

"What's this?"

Duanmu Huai picked up the pieces of paper in the trash can, and put them back together... well, it really was a photo.

This is a photo of a group of people.

If it's just that, it's fine, but the problem is...the person in this photo has a problem.

In the middle of this photo is the victim Williams Ford, and among the crowd, Duanmuhuai also saw another figure...

"Doctor Rose."

Duanmu Huai turned his head and looked at Rose, who was already pale at the moment.

"You didn't tell me that you knew Williams."

While talking, Duanmuhuai clicked on some photos, and at this moment, Dr. Rose's complexion changed drastically, and then she gritted her teeth.

"I, I did have a few encounters with Williams, but I didn't kill Williams, and I didn't know he was on this airship!"

"So, where did you meet?"

Duan Muhuai stared at Dr. Rose, and asked, he remembered it very clearly. Williams wrote in his diary that when he was young, he had joined an elite club of the upper class, which was the Silver Twilight Cabin. And who knows if the photo in front of him was taken by someone from the Silver Twilight Cabin.

If this is the case, then Dr. Rose is also a member of Silver Dusk Cabin, which means she is also a cultist!

There's one more problem, and that's that the photo was found in Arthur's room, and Arthur smokes too!

Not only that, although Dr. Rose is a female doctor, she also smokes!

If she is a cult member, then the previous testimony that the prisoner is an adult male can be completely overturned!

"etc!"

At this moment, the bodyguard Dot seemed to have discovered something again, and hurried over, carefully observed the photo, and then stretched out his hand.

"Look here!"

"Um?"

Duan Muhuai looked in the direction of the bodyguard Dot's finger, and looked towards the edge of the photo. Then his eyes suddenly widened, and he saw half of the maid on the edge of the photo. Although there is only half of the body and head, it can be seen that this should be the maid Ethel on the airship!

Yo, now things are getting more and more interesting.

Looking at the photo in front of him, Duanmuhuai couldn't help touching his chin. At first, he thought it was just a murder by a cultist, but now it seems that there are at least three people in this airship who knew the deceased Williams in the past!

At least judging from this photo, Dr. Rose and the maid named Ethel cannot escape the relationship! Also, this photo was found in Arthur's room. Even if he wasn't in it, it meant that this photo was related to Arthur!

In other words, besides Fred, the arrogant Arthur, the doctor Rose and the maid Ethel are all suspects!

After all, Williams made it very clear in his diary that the reason why he fled was that the cultists in the Silver Twilight Cabin wanted to use his blood to perform some kind of evil ritual. So from the current point of view, the murderer is likely to be someone Williams knew in the club called Silver Twilight Cabin!

If the people in this photo are all members of the Silver Twilight Cabin, then neither the doctor Rose nor the maid Ethel can escape the relationship!

The only problem is, judging from the time this photo was taken, it was twenty years ago, but the maid Ethel is only in her twenties... Of course, the premise is that she is still a human being, not a monster.

Everyone panicked now, Duanmuhuai also stared at Dr. Rose, who gritted his teeth and finally lowered his head.

"Well, I said, it was actually Arthur who threatened me..."

"Threatening you?"

"Yes, Arthur wanted me to give him some illegal drugs, you know, but of course I didn't want to, and then Arthur threatened me that if I didn't want to, he would tell me about my past..."

"Your past?"

"... I used to be a doctor, but once, I treated a girl, but the girl disappeared after the treatment. Then this incident made me take the blame, and I lost the doctor's name." Qualifications, I had to leave to go to other places, until twenty years later, I thought that things had passed for so long, and I should be fine, so I took this airship and planned to go back and have a look... I didn't expect to meet Arthur... ………”

Having said that, Dr. Rose looked at the photo with a complicated expression.

"As for this photo, it was indeed taken when we were in the club. As for why Arthur had this photo, I don't know..."

"........."

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai frowned. Indeed, it is not news that the nobles take drugs, and this reason is justified.

Of course, the premise is that this club is not the Silver Twilight Lodge, otherwise, he has to suspect that this is probably a well-planned murder, and the murderer is not one person, but a group of people!

"……………let's go."

After listening to Dr. Rose's justification, Duanmuhuai just glanced at her indifferently, and then looked away. At this moment Dot was standing beside Dr. Rose, grabbing her arm. And the female student of the master's college kept a distance from her, and Dr. Rose's face was also pale.

Originally, it was just a formal investigation, but unexpectedly, more and more things were found out, and with more and more evidence, the truth of the case became more and more confusing. So Duanmu Huai also quickly restrained his thoughts, left Arthur's room, and went to the last two rooms—the crew lounge and the crew bedroom. These two rooms are connected to the observation deck, and only the crew members of the ship are allowed to enter.

Of course, I don't care about so much now.

Duanmuhuai first came to the crew's bedroom, where there are four bunk beds, which are very simple and crude, not as luxurious as the cabin -- well, it's normal.

"Meow!"

However, when Duanmuhuai walked into the crew's bedroom, the black cat seemed to have discovered something again. With a soft cry, it jumped off Duanmuhuai's shoulder, landed on the ground, and then circled around a suitcase next to it. , then raised his head and looked at Duanmuhuai.

"What a great kitten."

Seeing this scene, the female students in the master's college couldn't help feeling emotional. They followed Duanmuhuai all the way, and they also found that this black cat was very powerful. It was the evidence it found every time, and they didn't know that such a small cat How did the cat find it? Does it have the same sense of smell as a dog, so it can easily find something?

Duanmu Huai just laughed, jokingly, Ling Nu's investigative ability is better than real detectives, well, when he walked to the box, he saw that there was a lock on it, of course, for Duanmu Huai, this lock Locks are not a problem at all.

He stretched out his hand, grabbed the top with his right hand, and the bottom of the lock with his left hand, and then twisted it hard!

"Click it!"

Accompanied by a soft sound, the next moment everyone watched the lock being snapped off abruptly by Duanmu Huai from the middle!

"hiss-----!!"

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but gasped and looked at Duanmu Huai in horror.

That's a steel lock, in Duanmuhuai's hand it's almost the same as made of wood.

How strong is this man?

Duanmuhuai naturally didn't care about the panic of the melon-eating crowd. He threw away the twisted lock and opened the box. Inside were basically some personal clothes and nothing particularly strange. No murder weapon either—well, if only there was a murder weapon.

"etc!"

However, just as Duanmuhuai picked up a pocket watch, Dort stood up again.

"It's Williams' pocket watch!"

"you sure?"

"Of course, if you open the watch cover, there are still his initials inside!"

Hearing Dort's swearing, Duanmuhuai also opened the pocket watch, and as expected, he found the initials of W.F on the inside of the watch cover.

"Did Williams say he lost his pocket watch?"

"No, the pocket watch was still on the table when I left his room this morning."

"That's interesting..."

Duanmu Huai took out the pocket watch and closed the cover. Fortunately, there was a name on the box, so there was no need to bother him to investigate further.

This is exactly the navigator Bart's box.

Well, there is another name in the suspect's notebook.

Duanmu Huai stared at the name on it for a moment, then looked away.

"Okay, let's go back to the viewing platform. Next, it's time to find the murderer."
