The crowd searched for the smell of blood and came to the kitchen at the back of the Shangri-La Hotel, although the chef was gone, but the dishes that had not had time to be processed were still on the stove, the faucet was not turned off, and the water was flowing down the pipe, and it seemed that it was about to overflow the stove.
Qi Lu turned off the faucet with a cold face, and the room suddenly fell silent, and after a few glances, he noticed something abnormal.
Hong Yi also found out, he walked to the big water tank in the corner with a calm expression, turned around and looked at Qi Lu with a smile.
There was not a drop of water in the tank, reflecting a black light in the blue, and the smell of blood emanated from here.
Qi Lu leaned over and glanced at it a few times and said, "There is a mechanism below." ” "Well, I've noticed it."
With a flick of Hong Yi's fingers, the water tank collapsed like rubble, revealing a black hole underneath, and the smell of dirty blood in it came to the nostrils, irritating everyone's nostrils.
Qi Lu just glanced in, and his stomach became uncomfortable, but he was embarrassed to show his shortcomings in front of a few monsters, so he had to cheer up, pretend to be lazy, and stood there without speaking.
The hole was full of corpses, all of whom had been killed by cutting their throats with knives and other sharp objects, and they were discarded haphazardly like animal carcasses.
After watching the situation in the cave, Hu Lei said to Qi Lu in a demonstrative tone: "Do you still think we are cruel, if human beings are cruel, they will be more despicable and shameless than our demon clan." ” Qi Lu glanced at him and still didn't speak, no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.
Hong Yi rolled his eyes and asked, "Why didn't Mr.
Qi speak?"
"I'd like to hear from you."
Qi Lu finally spoke.
"When did Mr.
Qi become so modest."
Hong Yi smiled slightly, "You must be familiar with these dead people."
"Yes, they are tourists staying at the hotel."
"I just don't know how deep the hole is, and whether there are any corpses of villagers underneath."
"Let me do this dirty work."
Lao Wu jumped into the cave regardless of the smell and searched through it, and after a while, he examined all the corpses.
"It's all tourists, not a single villager."
Qi Lu held back his nausea and asked, "In this way, the villagers are really missing."
Hong Yi had secretly observed the situation in the cave when Lao Wu was rummaging through the body, and he said: "The blood on the wound of the deceased has not completely coagulated, which means that the person died not long ago, and the time of the crime was about the time period when I saved you."
Combined with the hasty method of discarding the corpses, the murderer should have killed them on the spot. ” "So it's not premeditated murder, so who do you think the murderer is?"
"You already have the answer to such a simple question, so why bother asking me," Hong Yi asked him rhetorically.
"These people were killed by the villagers, and they have already absconded in fear of crime" Yi Hanchuan saw that they were mysterious and secretive, and he was a little impatient, he didn't want to play dumb riddles.
"What the eldest brother said is right, as for whether he absconded in fear of crime, it's hard to say."
Hong Yi continued: "I personally believe that killing so many people at once, something that cannot be done by one person, should be an organized act. ” Yi Hanchuan said noncommittally: "Not necessarily, if it is a god and demon who commits a crime, it is easy for him to let these people see the king of Hades in a daze." ” Hong Yi pointed to the corpse and asked him: "If the eldest brother was the murderer, would you use such a clumsy way to kill?"
Yi Hanchuan was speechless for a moment, in other words, he only needed a spell to do it instantly, but although these tourists died in different ways, the time of death was obviously not the same time.
Qi Lu raised another question: "You said that it was an organized crime, I agree with this, but who is the organizer?"
This question got to the point, Hong Yi nodded approvingly, and replied honestly: "There are too few clues, and I can't be sure who it is at the moment." ” The highest prestige in Charbagh Village is the village chief, but he is dead, and who else can take on this important task What makes Qi Lu even more puzzled is that the action of the six evils to rescue himself and Lao Wu is very secretive, and it is impossible for the villagers to know about them in advance, but this organizer can arrange everything at the same time as the six evils, which is too incredible.
At this time, Hong Yi added meaningfully: "Even if I know who the murderer is, I'm afraid I can't say it on this occasion." ” Qi Lu was stunned when he heard this, because Hong Yi said what he was thinking at the moment.
The reasonable explanation for this situation is nothing more than the following two reasons, either there is a traitor in the Six Evils who reported to the villagers in advance, or the organizer is one of the monsters in the Six Evils, who secretly directs the villagers to carry out criminal deeds.
Hong Yi is a smart man, and he knows that if he rashly speaks his mind at this time, he may invite death.
If this is the case, then why does this monster do this Qi Lu silently swept his gaze over the bodies of these six monsters, and a chill arose in his heart, he suddenly realized that no matter whether this mysterious organizer was a member of the Six Evils or not, he would be an extremely terrifying opponent.
"Do smart people like to pretend to be deep," Hu Lei said coldly.
"Ha, don't you know enough about me" Qi Lu laughed, and turned to Yi Hanchuan and said, "Since there are no other clues, why don't we go back to the room and rest." ” Yi Hanchuan asked puzzled: "You don't want to investigate the case?"
"I'm more concerned about whether our room is a mess by the villagers than about investigating the case."
After saying that, Qi Lu left the kitchen, and Lao Wu also followed him after washing his hands.
"Phew, these two guys are really draggy," Hu Lei yelled at their backs.
"Didn't the eldest brother say it, the master ordered us to fully cooperate with them and cooperate sincerely, so why not just put up with it."
Hong Yi dropped a sentence and drifted away.
"Boss, what do you say we should do now?"
"Go back and rest, anyway, if he can't find the murderer tomorrow, he will have to go with us."
Yi Hanchuan didn't care about these dead people, nor did he want to know the reason for the disappearance of the villagers, what he cared about was to use Qi Lu's power to eliminate the evil god called Houjun that the village chief said.

If it succeeds, the greatest threat is eliminated, and no one else in the world can stop their plans.
Maybe Qi Lu will turn his face and become an enemy after the cooperation, but Yi Hanchuan is not worried at all, he has a premeditated plan in his heart, that is, when Qi Lu dares to do this, he will cut it first and then play it, and order the six evils to kill Qi Lu and Lao Wu, and then the wood will be completed, and the master will be helpless even if he is dissatisfied.
Pushing open the door of the room where he was resting, Qi Lu found that there was no messy scene in the room that he imagined, and nothing had been disturbed.
But he was still not at ease, so he searched the house carefully, until he saw that the few small notes he had written were also untouched.
As soon as he sat at the head of the bed and took a breath, he was startled, because Lao Wu was sitting next to him drinking wine from the wine jug.
"How many times have I told you, is it difficult to say hello before coming in?"
"Yes, are you also afraid of ghosts," Lao Wu replied nonchalantly.
Qi Lu shook his head helplessly, sometimes it was a little annoyed to communicate with Lao Wu, but then he calmed down and asked, "What do you want to say to me?"
"The mastermind behind the killing of tourists is not an easy character."
"I know if you have a suspect in mind?"
"Yes."
Lao Wu said a completely different answer from Qi Lu, "He is the waiter Xiao Li." ” "Xiao Li" Qi Lu was stunned, although he didn't agree with Lao Wu's point of view, but suddenly realized something.
Lao Wu said again: "This guy is by no means a human being. ” Qi Lu nodded and said yes, a guy who can retreat in front of everyone without being aware of it, no human being in the world is capable of doing it.
He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Actually, I found out a few days ago that he is not an ordinary person. ” "Ah, how do you know" Lao Wu couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Remember when we met him on our first day at the hotel?"
"I remember, but I didn't notice anything wrong with him at the time."
"I didn't notice anything unusual about him, but I accidentally saw his hands, which were very dirty, like he often did hard labor and didn't pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene."
"What does that mean?"
"I didn't think there was anything wrong with it at the time, after all, there are many men like him in the world."
Qi Lu recalled the scenes where Xiao Li dealt with him, "But after more contact with him, I realized the strangeness." ” Seeing that Lao Wu's eyes were suspicious, Qi Lu continued: "In the subsequent contact, I found that he had changed as a person.
The hands were very white and neat, and there was not a trace of dirt.
Even the taste of clothing has changed, with a bit of a fashionable atmosphere. ” Lao Wu picked up the wine glass and took a sip gently, "Do you want to tell me that you met two people before and after?"
"At the moment I think so, but of course there could be other reasons.
I say this, do you have a clearer understanding of this Xiao Li?"
"I don't know, if you deduce from your analysis, I can conclude that he is not a demon, but a member of our Protoss."
Qi Lu's heart was extremely confused, but he knew that what Lao Wu said was the truth, if Xiao Li was a monster, even if he was good at hiding the demonic qi and hiding the six evils, it was impossible to hide it from himself and Lao Wu.
This is the answer that Qi Lu is most unwilling to get, but the facts prove that this is not Lao Wu's conjecture.
"The disappearance of the villagers is unknown, we don't know if they are dead or alive, and we still don't know what the mastermind behind the scenes is trying to do."
Lao Wu raised a series of questions, but Qi Lu couldn't answer any of these questions, and he found that it was basically impossible to find the answers to all the questions in one day, unless a miracle happened.
Lao Wu said that he was worried, "Time is running out, can I go to the village for a walk later, maybe I can find some useful clues." ” "No need, this organizer was able to take all the villagers away in such a short time, which shows that he is a far-sighted guy, and he can't leave us more clues."
"Then I'll go back and rest, tomorrow I will only go to Death Valley with those few monsters, you should prepare in advance."
Night had fallen, and Qi Lu also turned off the lights and went to sleep after Lao Wu left.
In the haze, he only felt a chill all over his body, and the familiar mysterious male voice sounded in his ears again, only this time only one person was speaking.
"It's time to get rid of the pests."
Qi Lu felt that his whole body trembled, but his eyelids couldn't be opened as if they were filled with lead, and the only thing he could do was to fall asleep and continue to sleep. i0 t1706231537:
