Originally, the group of people had planned to investigate separately. After all, after spending the entire day together yesterday, some of them had already begun to suspect their companions.
However, he did not expect that everyoneâs first target was the biochemical laboratory.
âI thought you guys would first investigate the suicide incident last night.â Shu Ling said,â Thatâs why I wanted to go to the laboratory that scared us. 1 didnât expect you all to think the same.â
Yu Muhuai said, âI also want to know what happened to the creaking sound last night. Besides, I donât believe you, and you might not believe me either. Itâs better to investigate it personally.â
Zhao Yingnan looked at the two of them. She was a little happy.â Then shall we go together?â
For Zhao Yingnan, who was a little scared, the more people, the better.
Thus, the six of them walked together with tacit understanding.
This time, it was still Jiang Xuyan who was responsible for getting the key.
Yu Muhuai and Xu Xingzhou were on the lookout. If there was any movement, they would immediately drag Jiang Xuyan away.
The others were responsible for distracting the security guards.
Zhao Yingnan and Shu Ling used the excuse that they found someone outside the school breaking in and lured a security guard away.
Even though the two extras knew that they were lying, the reason was too legitimate. As security guards, they had no choice but to make a trip.
The other security guard was led away by Song Qingyou.
The reason Song Qingyou gave Jiang Xuyan and the others was that she would use the name of the board of directors to trick the security guards away.
In fact, she had said that she had something to talk to him about, and the security guard had obediently followed her.
Without waiting for Song Qingyou to speak, the security guard said,
âThe president asked me to tell you that the person who wanted to betray us has been dealt with. Please donât worry.â
âSomeone who wants to betray me?â Song Qingyou was stunned. âThe person who jumped off the building last night?â
The security guard shook his head. âItâs not him. Itâs the other one.â
In other words, the two students who had poisoned the teacher were gone.
There was more than one murder case last night.
âThe president said that the death of the person who jumped off the building was very strange, just like the people who disappeared or died for no reason beforeâ¦The president thinks that someone is already suspicious of him, so he canât meet you. He wants you to not expose yourself.â
The security guard recited this line without any emotion.
Song Qingyou nodded slightly. âI understand.â
âIt seems that the identity of one of my murderers has been confirmed, âshe said with a smile.â Next, I need to find my companion.â
âAnd according to the information provided by the Student Council President, Iâm definitely not the biggest mastermind behind the scenes. Iâm staying in the school as an assistant teacher probably to investigate the identity of the mastermind.â
Even if she knew the entire plot of the game, Song Qingyou still had to pretend.
Saying a few words to the camera was also a necessary operation for recording a program.
Otherwise, the audience would not know what the guests were thinking.
At the same time, Jiang Xuyan had successfully obtained the key to the laboratory.
This time, when they entered the laboratory during the day, they did not hear any creaking sounds.
The white cloth that had been lifted was still on the experiment table. The mannequin still looked strange, but it wasnât that scary anymore.
Yu Muhuai boldly walked over and attacked after checking.
He poked the chest and abdomen of the mannequin, but the mannequin did not react.
Then, he jabbed his arm.
This time, the mannequin began to make creaking sounds.
The people who were checking other places were shocked and raised their heads alertly.
Yu Muhuai turned around and said,â The creaking sound last night should be the arm of this model.â
âIf no one pushed it, how did it move?â Shu Ling frowned.
âMaybe itâs aliveâ¦â Jiang Xuyan said faintly.
Zhao Yingnan gasped and skillfully hid behind Song Qingyou.
âIt canât be aliveâ¦â Yu Muhuai stared at it thoughtfully for a while.â Instead of guessing that itâs alive, Iâm more inclined to believe that thereâs a mechanism inside that can be controlled remotely.â
As he spoke, he raised his hand and grabbed the arm of the model again.
âDidnât you say that we canât damage public propertyâ¦â Zhao Yingnan quickly reminded him.
âItâs just a normal dismantling model.â Yu Muhuai didnât mind.â This model can be disassembled.â
âLet me help.â Jiang Xuyan walked forward.
The mannequin was heavier than they had imagined, but the production team couldnât let them not find any clues, so the two of them quickly removed the mannequinâs arm.
Then, the six of them saw the mechanism in their arms.
Even though they didnât understand what was going on with the circuits inside, they could still understand the key to making their arms shake and the indicator lights that could be clearly controlled remotely.
âItâs really man-made,â Yu Muhuai smiled.
âSince thereâs an indicator light, there should be a remote control. The moment we entered the laboratory last night, we heard a creaking soundâ¦â
âSo the remote control must be in someoneâs hands!â Jiang Xuyan suddenly realized.
Yu Muhuai nodded.
âWe can search them first, or turn their pockets inside out,â suggested Xu Xingzhou.
âNo problem.â Jiang Xuyan was the first to answer.
Song Qingyou and the others had no objections.
However, none of the six of them had a remote control or something similar to a remote control.
There was nothing in the laboratory either.
âIt canât be Lil Tang, right?â Jiang Xuyan was surprised.
âIt might not be him.â
Yu Muhuai frowned. âIt seems that it doesnât make sense to search through the remote control. Besides, itâs strange to install a mechanism on the model arm. What does this have to do with the murder case?â
Zhao Yingnan coughed twice. With this kind of mechanism installed, it can scare me away. Coupled with the ghost stories circulating in the school, no one dares to enter this laboratory at all.â
âSoâ¦â Shu Ling was enlightened. âThose ghost stories were all to prevent others from discovering the crime scene?â
âItâs been so long. Itâs fine even if we find out, right? Itâs just a murder scene. Why do you still have to hide itâ¦â
Jiang Xuyan scratched his head. âIt canât be that the body is still here, right?â
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Yu Muhuai seemed to have figured something out. âYes, a corpse! Maybe those missing people are hidden in the school!â
And those ghost stories happened in places where corpses were hidden!
âThen in this laboratoryâ¦â Zhao Yingnan looked at the mannequin in horror. âIt canât be inside this, right?â
The model was the size of an adult male, so it was reasonable to have something inside.
âThatâs possible. Why donât we think of a way to open it and take a look?â Xu Xingzhou agreed.
âNo, I donât think thereâs anything in the model.â
Yu Muhuai stopped them. âIâm more suspicious of the cabinet over there.â
The big cabinet at the back of the laboratory had not been opened yet.
Now that Yu Muhuai mentioned it, they had a feeling that there might be something behind it.
âDo we really have to open it?â
Jiang Xuyan swallowed his saliva.
âI feel like Director Wei doesnât have good intentions. Even if thereâs nothing inside, there must be something scaryâ¦â
Yu Muhuai, who was about to open the cabinet confidently, suddenly stopped..
