Chapter 177 Mourning Hall

After Lin Wenzhou made the phone call, he was a little surprised why Ling Shuanghua's voice was sullen, and then he remembered that he seemed to be a little unhappy with the eldest lady last night. He never held grudges and forgot just now.

While waiting, the three of them randomly found a classroom to sit down and chat. In fact, it was mainly Wei Qingying and Qi Yueyi who chatted, and Lin Wenzhou listened obediently. The two of them chatted for a while and then began to seriously study the box.

The box was very exquisite, in Qi Yueyi's words, it seemed to be made of silverware, but there seemed to be a small mechanism, if it was not opened in the correct way, it might have very bad consequences.

Lin Wenzhou was amazed to see the two of them playing that jigsaw puzzle. The two girls moved so fast that they basically came out with a complete picture after three times.

He wiped off his sweat, the level of this jigsaw puzzle was comparable to that of his mother. He remembered one time when his mother and Aunt Chenxi were bored and challenged a jigsaw puzzle. That time he and his father were frightened...

The problem is that there is no movement in the box after the jigsaw puzzle comes out, so Qi Yueyi frowned and tried a new combination method, but no matter what she did, the other methods could not complete a complete picture, but Qi Yueyi remained calm, Not very discouraged expression.

Wei Qingying also took it and fiddled with it a few times, and finally came to the conclusion that the last piece of the puzzle is really missing, and if it is put on, it can be opened.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps, and Lin Wenzhou knew that one of them should be Miss Ling.

He pushed the door out with two beautiful girls, and sure enough, he saw Ling Shuanghua walking in the front.Behind him was a guy with wicked eyebrows, who was looking around, and at the end there were two other people, one old and one young, who were later introduced by her as the partners of the detective firm, Lu Linrui and Kang Mengbin.

Ling Shuanghua explained: "Picking the lock is not something to be done on the stage. Someone has to watch and prevent the idlers from waiting. Although there is usually no one here, she is not afraid of [-] or just in case. She plans to let those two Individuals posing as police officers to stop other students."

Lin Wenzhou looked at the eldest lady in surprise.Can't see beneath her icy exterior.The mind is still quite delicate, and the behavior is quite a bit of a leadership style.

That roguish-eyed guy is said to be the number one thief in Cheongju, named Li Bingbing, nicknamed 'Someone's Shadow'.

Li Bingbing seemed to have special respect for Ling Shuanghua and Lu Linrui.After he heard Lin Wenzhou finish talking about the target.He glanced at the door disdainfully.Maybe I feel that I am somewhat overqualified for this lock.

He skillfully took out a tool bag, which contained all kinds of strange tools that Lin Wenzhou had never seen before, and then he squatted at the door of the grocery store.Skillfully began to pick the lock.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Wenzhou briefly explained the situation to Ling Shuanghua. He said that the moment the eldest lady saw him when she first arrived, although she looked cold on the surface, the shadow actually told Lin Wenzhou that she was in a good mood.

However, this good mood disappeared after she saw Qi Yueyi's appearance...

Finally, after listening to Lin Wenzhou's words, knowing that Qi Yueyi and Wei Qingying were together instead of dating someone, this made the eldest lady a little happier. She said coldly: "That woman is very enthusiastic..." Because Lin Wenzhou pulled her aside to talk, she was not worried about being heard by the scouts.

Lin Wenzhou found it very strange, as if she always had some opinions on Qi Yueyi.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Ling Shuanghua say: "Come and cook in the afternoon, I have something to tell you."

Lin Wenzhou nodded, and at this moment, Li Bingbing suddenly muttered, "Oh my god, it's actually a triple chain!"

Wei Qingying, who was watching his movements curiously, even felt as if he was studying with an open mind, said strangely: "Master Li, what is Sanlianhuan?"

Li Bingbing was overjoyed when he saw the opportunity to show off his professional knowledge like a beautiful girl, and he started talking endlessly, to the effect that this kind of lock is very rare. Even if you take the normal way, you need three keys to open it. There is probably only one in Qingzhou. How many people have the ability to open the lock, you are definitely lucky to find me.

Wei Qingying and Qi Yueyi glanced at each other, and the former continued to ask without hesitation: "Master Li, how many people can open this lock?"

Li Bingbing thought for a while and said: "Besides me, probably those two people are okay, one is called 'God's Left Hand' and the other is called 'Sky Eye', they are all seniors in our industry..."

Lin Wenzhou quickly explained to Ling Shuanghua that the lock had been pried open not long ago. The eldest lady turned her face aside and quickly called Lu Linrui who was guarding outside, asking him to find a way to find the two old thieves.

Seeing that Li Bingbing was bragging about himself while quickly using various tools with his fingers, Wei Qingying and Qi Yueyi, two beautiful girls, stared at his movements with wide eyes. They seemed to be stealing lessons. I really don't understand them Why are you interested in this special craft.

A few minutes later, Li Bingbing exclaimed with joy, "It's done!"

He turned his hand, and there was a click, and he gently opened the door. He took the lead and walked in on tiptoe. It seemed that his footsteps made no sound at all, which was definitely a professional habit.

There were neither windows nor lights in the utility room. Even in broad daylight, it was pitch black inside, which made several people feel a little depressing.

The utility room in the dark was so quiet that it made people feel creepy. Fortunately, Li Bingbing, the 'shadow of someone', had all the tools on him, so he took out a small flashlight and illuminated the surroundings.

Following the faint light of the flashlight, Lin Wenzhou walked into the house and looked around cautiously. The utility room is very small, no more than 30 square meters by visual estimation. It is located on the north side of the fourth floor, next to the stairwell.

The entrance is located at the westernmost position on the south side of the utility room. The room is about four meters wide from east to west and about eight meters deep from north to south.

Various shelves are placed neatly on both sides, there are six rows in total, each row is one for east and west, leaving a narrow corridor in the middle.

There were all kinds of sundries in a mess on the shelves, old tools, brooms, gloves, ropes, torn clothes, and even a few hard hats. Lin Wenzhou even found several books on one shelf. It is an old antique, and it has been damaged badly over time, and it can only be vaguely seen that one of them is a dictionary and a reference book.

In the northernmost part of the utility room was a table, which was empty. Lu Linrui, who was called up to help, squeezed to the front, carefully looked through it with a flashlight, and soon he was a little surprised and said: "Mr. Ling, I found something small!"

Ling Shuanghua and Lin Wenzhou also came to the front, only to see the retired old criminal police officer Lu Linrui pointing at the table and said: "The dust on this table is not uniform in thickness. Judging from the dust marks, it is obvious that something was placed in the middle."

Wei Qingying walked to the front, looked at the table, stood there thinking for a long time, and finally her eyes flashed blankly!Then Wei Qingying returned to those shelves with a hint of excitement, looking at the various old items on them seriously one by one.

Looking at these tattered and disorderly things, her eyes became more and more excited!

Lin Wenzhou wanted to say something else, but Qi Yueyi said calmly: "Qingying thought about it too, I just came in and saw these things and then I understood, these are all relics..."

As soon as these words came out, except for Li Bingbing's expression of indifference, the expressions of the others suddenly changed. Lin Wenzhou reacted the fastest. He immediately understood Yueyi's meaning and said a little excitedly: "These things are all The relics of the seven missing workers? No wonder there are hard hats that are only used on construction sites! By the way, these yarn gloves, and these few books..."

Wei Qingying smiled and said: "It means that among those seven people, there are some who are eager to learn, and they are also reading in their spare time..."

At this time, Lin Wenzhou suddenly realized, and added: "Did Zhang Sicheng see this room that night..."

Qi Yueyi said earnestly: "I'll make a bold guess, Gu Jiajia and the rest of them pretended to be ghosts that night, maybe there were not only the few people you know now, but also someone who was hiding here on the fourth floor... Of course, what was he doing here? We'll discuss it later."

She paused and continued to explain: "Then when Zhang Sicheng fell to the ground, he just lay on the ground and looked westward. This magical angle allowed him to see things that he couldn't see under normal circumstances... For example, there is something faintly visible through the crack of the door below." There was a faint light, perhaps candlelight..."

Lu Linrui immediately interjected: "It's very possible, look here, there is a trace of a burnt candle..."

Qi Yueyi nodded and continued: "Maybe he wasn't the only one who noticed the light at the time, I think there should be Gu Jiajia, because the other people rushed to him when they left the classroom door, and she was the only one who walked from west to east ...But she should have told Cha Simin about this discovery."

Ling Shuanghua couldn't help asking: "If this person was hiding in the grocery store at that time, why didn't the police know..."

Lin Wenzhou explained: "It's simple. After Gu Jiajia escaped, that person also adopted the same method. He just jumped down, bypassed the camera and ran away."

Wei Qingying also added: "But they can't let the school know about this important discovery, for fear that the school will remove the contents in time, so Chai Simin took the risk and killed Zhang Sicheng."

After Lin Wenzhou listened to Wei Qingying's words, his eyes returned to the empty table at the end of the room, and he said to himself: "Speaking of moving things away, Mr. Lu said just now that something was left here, and now Yueyi has already left it here." Reminder, I understand a bit, relics, candles, what do you think of?"

Lu Linrui almost blurted out: "Mourning hall!"

Lin Wenzhou nodded and said: "I think the same as Mr. Lu. The real function of this utility room should be a mourning hall. Someone mourns here. The object is obviously the seven migrant workers. Do you think that this table should have been placed on it?" Holding a spiritual card..." (to be continued...)
