The three tourists who beat up Hua Hongyi were invited into the screening room together. They were all men, one of them was about 35 years old, and the other two were about 60 years old. The three people did not know each other before going to the island, but after passing

After 20 thrilling days of life and death, their relationship became closer.

You can see them chatting and smoking on the deck every day, and you can see them playing cards and passing time in the restaurant.

When Ning Fan was harassed by Hua Hongyi, they happened to meet for dinner and beat the drunkard severely.

"Tell me one by one, where were you and what were you doing from after 10 o'clock last night to before 2 o'clock this morning?"

The young man spoke first: "Xiang Dui, we didn't kill anyone. The three of us were playing cards in Uncle Wang's room all night."

The other two, who were elderly and lacked courage, were obviously frightened by the news of Hua Hongyi's death. When Xiang Nan asked, they did not dare to look up at him, but nodded desperately in agreement with the young man's words.

"Yes, yes, the three of us have been playing cards in Uncle Wang's room since we boarded the ship. We only saw Hua Hongyi in the restaurant yesterday morning, but not at other times."

This morning, tourists who went to the cargo warehouse to pick up their luggage screamed loudly after discovering the body. Before Xiang Nan and Gao Xiaoxi arrived, news of the vicious murder on the Bianan had spread throughout the cruise ship.

The three tourists who vented their anger on Xie Fan were instantly frightened.

They were woken up from their beds before they woke up and waited outside the screening room in fear.

"Xiang Dui, it's not us, it's really not us. Hua Hongyi has a bad temper and misbehaves. We can just beat him up to vent his anger. How could that happen?"

The man waved his hands desperately, clarifying for himself and his companions. "How could you kill him, and still, make him like that?"

The bloody imprint of Hua Hongyi hanging on the cross is lingering in every visitor's mind.

Although not everyone has seen it with their own eyes, human imagination is very rich. Coupled with the vivid descriptions of the troublemakers and the addition of details based on their own opinions, several versions of the cause of Hua Hongyi's death were circulated in a short period of time.

"Don't be too nervous. I called you here just for a routine inquiry. Since the testimonies of the three of you corroborate each other, I will believe you for the time being."

"You said you were playing cards all night, was there any movement outside the door?"

The young tourist glanced at the two older poker players next to him, thought for a while and shook his head.

"There are empty rooms on both sides of the place where Uncle Wang lives. We were afraid of disturbing others when we played cards at night, so we chose Uncle Wang's room. If there was any noise outside the door, we didn't hear it at all."

Hua Hongyi's room is at No. 38, and Uncle Wang's room is at No. 42. They are three rooms apart and there is no sound at all.

The young tourist thought of something else, and replied with a slight blush: "If you want to say what I heard, those two people live in a room separated from us. They are active at night, and sometimes we can hear them. The woman screams so loudly

Loud."

Gao Xiaoxi also blushed when she heard this. The young tourists were talking about none other than Zhuang Xian and Pang Gonglin. The female forensic doctor couldn't help but secretly scream shamelessly. These three people gathered in Uncle Wang's room 42 to play cards at night.

Not only because it is quiet there and will not disturb other tourists, but also because I want to listen to the corner.

The older tourists reacted and were laughed at by the female forensic doctor after being overturned after many years of driving. The man named Uncle Wang immediately stopped his companions with his eyes and said a few more words. If Xiangnan asked them to change rooms, they would no longer hear the wonderful sound.

Already.

Uncle Wang smiled and said: "Xiang Dui, we are just playing cards and can't hear anything."

The room was quiet for a while. Just as the three people became more and more anxious and restless, Xiang Nan asked them: "We are going to search your room, okay?"

The three people hurriedly agreed, nodded, got up and left.

Then came the main event, a member of the sales department of Fulushou Health Products Group Sales Company. Xiangnan first selected Zhou Fansheng. He had a good impression of this young man. They often acted together on the island because of the disappearance of Bai Xiaozhou and others.

, this young man is steady and down-to-earth, and seems out of place in this company full of weird atmosphere.

After Zhou Fansheng came in, he sat up straight and didn't look sideways. It was obvious that this man had a firm heart and a bright mind. Although his spirit was not good enough and he had not recovered from Bai Xiaozhou's murder, his mood had been adjusted.

"Is Hua Hongyi's death related to Bai Xiaozhou's death?"

Before Xiang Nan opened his mouth, Zhou Fansheng asked anxiously.

"Xiang Dui, don't hide anything from me. I hope to join in the investigation of the case."

Xiang Nan felt very sorry for this young man and tried to be gentle when asking questions.

"Don't worry, there are still many doubts about the two deaths, but based on my years of experience in solving cases, I can tell that their deaths do not have the same motive, and the murderers are also different."

Bai Xiaozhou's death is still a thorn in Zhou Fansheng's heart. He hates that he is powerless and hates that he cannot protect her. The last time he saw Bai Xiaozhou, she clearly had something to tell him.

It's a pity that all his attention was on the confession at that time, expecting Bai Xiaozhou to give him a positive response, but ignored the dodge in the other person's eyes and the hesitation in speaking.

"What's the suspicion?"

Xiang Nan asked him: "Do you know Hua Hongyi? I mean, have you met him before he came to your sales department?"

Zhou Fansheng shook his head. He had not been in the company for a long time. His impression was that he was either getting along with his colleagues or going out to meet clients. He did not remember such a person in his life.

"This is the information we found from Hua Hongyi's room. Take a look."

Xiang Nan handed a stack of photos to Zhou Fansheng. Hua Hongyi in the photos was much younger than he is now, fresh, handsome and high-spirited. He was completely different from the current person.

"You said this is Hua Hongyi?" Zhou Fansheng looked at the man in the photo in disbelief. If Xiang Nan hadn't been so sure, he wouldn't have thought they were the same person.

Hua Hongyi has changed too much. He has an unkempt beard, long hair covering his face, a haggard look, and sunken eye sockets, which is very different from his previous image.

"Yes!" Xiang Nan affirmed.

He didn't recognize the person right away. It wasn't until he found his body in the morning and went to his room to search for evidence that he found out that this person was Hua Nana's father, Mr. Hua, in the case of the Simin High School female student who fell to death 10 years ago.

Yi.

Later he changed his name to Hua Hongyi and joined Fu Lu Shou Sales Department more than a month ago as a salesperson.

"This person looks so familiar. I mean, the person in the photo seems to have been seen somewhere."

"He is Hua Yi, the chairman of your group."

Zhou Fansheng looked at Xiang Nan in surprise, not understanding what he meant. How could a group director go to work as a salesperson in the sales department and look depressed and slovenly?

"Xiang Dui, Hua Hongyi, I mean what has our chairman experienced in these years, and why has it become like this?"

Hua Yi was known to Zhou Fansheng. As the chairman of the group, his photo had been hanging among the entrepreneurial team in the conference room. He never expected that such a powerful figure would become what he is now.

Xiang Nan guessed that Hua Hongyi had a huge change in his heart because his daughter was murdered and fell to death 10 years ago, and he could not bear the blow.

Tell Zhou Fansheng.

"That's what happened. Hua Hongyi probably became like this because he couldn't accept his daughter's death and couldn't get over it."

"Gao Xiaoxi, Professor Wei and I also went to the island to investigate this matter."

"Are you saying that our chairman also went to Diblon disguised as a salesman to find out about the unexplained deaths that occurred at Simin High School?"

Xiang Nan nodded in affirmation.

"No wonder you believe that Hua Hongyi's death and Xiaozhou's death are of different natures."

Bai Xiaozhou has nothing to do with what happened 10 years ago, and there is another reason for her death. The hope rising in Zhou Fansheng's heart was shattered again, and he fell into a new round of self-blame and guilt.

Gao Xiaoxi saw Zhou Fansheng's dejected look and comforted him: "Don't be too sad. The cause of Xiao Zhou's death will come to light."

"real?"

"Xiaozhou died so tragically! By the way, there were Li Na and Hong Gonghua. They died just like Xiaozhou." Zhou Fansheng covered his face and cried bitterly. He still couldn't accept that Bai Xiaozhou had left him and left this living world.

fact.

The two people who asked the question waited for a while, and Gao Xiaoxi asked him again: "Can you provide any other clues about Bai Xiaozhou's death?"

Zhou Fansheng took out a letter from his arms and said sadly: "This is the letter Xiaozhou gave me before he disappeared. It was originally intended for you, but I always felt that Xiaozhou was just missing, not..."

"Until we found her body in the corridor."

"Xiang Dui, take a look and see if there are any clues in it."

Brother Fansheng, I am at a loss when I receive your letter. I am both happy and uneasy at the same time.

The joy is because the man I like turns out to like me too.

And anxiety is fear.

There are people who really like women like me, but I am very afraid. I am afraid that changes will bring about changes, and I am afraid that getting closer will bring harm to you.

Brother Fansheng, you don’t understand what kind of woman I am. If you really understood me, you would definitely hate me or even be disgusted with me.

I used to be ignorant and naive, thinking that all people in this world were kind and beautiful, but I was wrong. This world is full of darkness, danger, ugliness and death.

But after meeting you, my world gained a touch of sunshine and a touch of warmth.

Gradually I gained the motivation to live and wanted to see your world.

But I am still very afraid, afraid of certain people and certain things, so I decided to completely resolve these things before I get close to you and face you with my new self.

Brother Fansheng, I think it should be solved soon. Please give me some time.

Xiangnan read the letter twice before looking up and asking Zhou Fansheng: "Do you know what the fear Bai Xiaozhou mentioned in the letter is?"

What is she afraid of? What are certain people and certain things?

"The letter also said that she would be able to solve it soon. Did this incident lead to her death?"

Xiang Nan keenly caught the implicit metaphor in the letter.

Zhou Fansheng was inspired and thought of many things, and said anxiously: "Xiang Dui, I remembered something."
