Mystery

"She didn't wear it, but you were the only one with a gold necklace at that time." Shen Ke frowned.

Shen Ke couldn't tell whether they were really second-year students who believed in the so-called rumors of "five elements in a large formation, and gold hidden underground"; or it was just that other people wanted to help Xie Ru and teach Yi Si a lesson.

"Yes, they said that they didn't find gold in the previous visit, so the gift must be insincere and not important."

"Wang Hu brought a jar of wine, which was the daughter's red buried at home when his sister was born; Gao Jiajun brought a piece of wood carving, Zhou Juncheng brought loess of travel fashion, Li Xinmei smoked, and she took the matches she usually carried with her. .”

"Before Xie Ru spoke, I always thought that I was a candlestick to them. This is not the first time I have come to the Grape Cave. Last time I came, I was mainly responsible for watching the candles and not letting them go out."

"I thought it was the same this time. But Xie Ru said that she lost her mother's gold earrings, and then she looked at me."

Shen Ke looked at Yi Si, and this time she subconsciously grabbed the iron railing beside her, but this time she didn't feel the heat at all.

"I immediately thought of the gold necklace on my body, and then ran away. They caught me, and Wang Hu was so strong that he tore the gold necklace away. They said they just borrowed it and waited until they found it. Give me back the gold."

"Or make one ten times thicker than mine. I didn't have any idea at the time, I just wanted to keep my mother's relics."

"I resisted fiercely. No one looked at the candles, and the cave was dark all of a sudden. The place was very remote, and it was very crowded. Xie Ru was afraid to go back. She stretched out her hand to pull me, but was dragged away by Li Xinmei. .”

"In the dark grape cave, I was the only one left. I found Li Xinmei's lighter, lit a candle, and searched everywhere in the cave, but the more anxious I was, the more I couldn't find it!"

"At this moment, footsteps came from the entrance of the cave... I thought they were coming back to look for me, but no!"

Yi Si's eyes turned red, and she bit her lip.

"I didn't go back all night. Others don't know. The dean in charge of discipline must know. Teacher Li wants me to call the police, but what's the use of calling the police? My father will feel ashamed of me, and my classmates will laugh at me. If Nanjiang can't stay, what else can I do?"

"Also, the relics left by my mother are gone. At that time, I used up all my courage just to survive."

Yi Si took a deep breath, followed by a long pause.

Shen Ke listened quietly.

So in Yi Si's murder plan, there are candlesticks, red ropes in holes, gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and even only slipknots are left for Xie Ru, because she called her when she was leaving.

She beat Wang Hu violently in the cave because he was the one who directly snatched the necklace.

She thought, and looked down at the mobile phone group.

In the group, Chen Mo just sent out the results of Yan Xiulin's autopsy, and the order of death of the five people she wanted.

There is also more information about Yi Si sent by Zhao Xiaomeng.

"Your university major is related to pharmacy. When I saw the five dead before, I drew a portrait of the murderer."

"You and the five of them must be acquaintances. Although they are not in the group, they seem to be in the group. Because only in this way can you clearly know when and where the five of them will meet."

"After going to university, the five of them separated into different levels because of their different development, and the group has been out of contact for a long time. Then why did they gather together again suddenly? Because the murderer did it on purpose."

"I heard the legend about the grape cave from the policeman Ozawa. At that time, I vaguely guessed what the murderer used to attract them. It was gold. Then I heard from Zhao Mengyi that you went to hunt for treasure. I'm more sure."

"You are the murderer, you lured them over with gold."

Yi Si nodded, she spread out her palm, and there was an old gold bar in her palm.

"I've been keeping my mouth shut, trying my best to forget about the Grape Cave. But that incident is like a time bomb buried under my feet, like a python wrapped around me."

"Fate is really ironic. After I graduated from university, I found a research job in a pharmaceutical company that everyone envied. I finally had money and I could see a very good psychologist. She is really good. In another six months, I’m about to come out of the shadows completely.”

"But at this time, I was suddenly diagnosed with cancer, and I was about to die. What is this like? It's like a fish trying to break free from a fishing net. It finally gnawed a hole out of the fishing net, thinking that the next step is freedom. And the wide world."

"But besides fishing nets, there are not big rivers and seas, but oil pans."

Yi Si smiled self-deprecatingly, "They are all human beings in God's jurisdiction, so why are their fates so different? Xie Ru and the others have never said sorry to me, and have never caused even a single day of shadow because of that incident. .”

"Although I know that they may not be able to predict what will happen later. But if they didn't lose my mother's belongings, they left me alone in Grape Cave, and they never regarded me as their friend... ..."

"All five of them have developed very well, have good jobs, and have good partners. After I die and turn into a pile of loess, they will still have decades of happy lives. Why is that?"

"I didn't do anything bad. I'm a victim, but I have to suffer. And they? It's not fair."

Shen Ke said "Oh", "So you tempted them with gold bars, and made them think that what Wang Hu's family said about the gold bars buried in the grape cave was true. So they made an appointment to go to the grape cave again Digging for treasure."

"Wang Hu was the first one to be killed by you, earlier than the others. He is a local and familiar with the terrain. You let him go directly to the Grape Cave, and then gave him the drugged drink, This has been confirmed in the forensic report."

"After Wang Hu lost his ability to move, you beat him violently, then killed him according to the pre-designed plan, and soaked him in the water. It was evening, and there happened to be a heavy rain in Nanjiang City .”

Yi Si nodded, "That's right. Because when we were in middle school, I was the one who prepared food and served tea and water for them. When they went out to play, I was the one who was in charge of contacting and arranging the location."

"So the five of them don't have even the slightest suspicion."

Shen Ke was not surprised, this was a very common occurrence at class reunions.

After many years, unless everyone's development has been reversed and great changes have taken place, you will find that the squad leader is still the squad leader, those popular people in the past are still popular people, and marginal people are still marginal people.

It seems that as soon as I returned to that environment, my social roles returned to the past.

"Wang Hu didn't go to the villa to play cards. You killed him early. Then you changed your clothes and went to the villa, and asked Gao Jiajun to drive you and Li Xinmei to look for it. Zhou Juncheng broke up with Xie Ru, and you deliberately told others , to arrange a chance for them to rekindle their old relationship."

"Then in the car, you shared food for the two of them, followed the same pattern, and killed Gao Jiajun and Li Xinmei."

Shen Ke said, walked up to Yi Si, and looked at the lush osmanthus tree not far away.

"The last two people left are the two most special people for you, Xie Ru and Zhou Juncheng."
