Chapter 842 Oil Painting

There is also such a desk lamp on the desk belonging to "Wang Jie". ơɱ

Before Jiang Cheng could observe carefully, Xia Qiang on the side whispered: "Pay attention to these chairs."

Huai Yi and the store owner looked away. Near the long table, there were many chairs neatly placed. They were high-backed chairs, which looked very ceremonial.

After entering Room 19, the store owner was very nervous. He looked left and right, but still suppressed the fear in his heart and whispered: "These chairs and this table are the same as in other rooms. Every room in our store is almost the same."

"The chair at the end is the position of the script host, and the others are participating players. Each player plays a corresponding role."

Through the store owner's explanation, everyone learned that the players sat around this table and played the corresponding script-killing game.

Jiang Cheng looked at the chairs and slowly said, "He's not talking about this, he's talking about the number of chairs." After a pause, he raised his head and continued, "There are 11 chairs here, excluding the one for the host, there are 10 left, which means that the number of players who actually participated in the script killing is 10."

After a moment, Huai Yi's eyes paused, and he immediately reacted and blurted out, "We are exactly 10 people."

Including Yuan Xiaotian and Li Mengyao who had been killed, there were 5 people in Xia Qiang's team, Lin Muyun and Lin Muwan, and Jiang Cheng, adding up to exactly 10 people.

"In this script, we are the players." Xia Qiang exhaled, his tone revealed helplessness and unwillingness.

"What is that?" The shop owner suddenly asked, and his hurried tone startled everyone.

Following the direction of the shop owner's finger, several people raised their mobile phones, and the faint light slightly dispelled the foggy grayness. Everyone focused their attention and looked at it. In the gray environment, a tall shadow appeared faintly.

It's a figure!

When he found the figure, the atmosphere around him suddenly changed. The shop owner's first reaction was to run out, immediately!

But as soon as he turned around, before he could run, he was dumbfounded.

The door that was not far behind him disappeared.

Behind him was a gray haze, and any light shining through it would be swallowed up. This psychedelic and bizarre scene was something the shop owner had only seen in movies.

The blood on his face faded away instantly. The shop owner had never seen this before. The reason why he agreed to come in was also relying on his courage. Now the whole person seemed to be poured with ice water. After calming down, he began to regret it.

But it was obviously too late to regret now. In order to prevent the shop owner from doing anything irrational because of excessive fear, Huai Yi, who was closest to him, immediately controlled him and covered his mouth before the shop owner cried out.

"If you want to live, be quiet!" Huai Yi said viciously: "With us here, you won't die. If you make trouble, we will have to leave you here alone!"

The shop owner was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head frantically, as if to say that he would definitely obey and not leave him alone.

Faced with such a situation, people like Jiangcheng Xia Qiang just felt it was sudden, but not much panic, because panic would not help solve the problem, and would only die faster.

Through a brief observation, the figure did not show any signs of moving during this period, just simply standing there, like a window mannequin.

"Don't walk around, especially don't retreat, it hasn't attacked us yet." Xia Qiang said, "We should be fine if we don't move, but if we run back, it's hard to say."

Xia Qiang's view is consistent with Jiangcheng. The other party could obviously hide in such an environment and launch a surprise attack on them, but chose to show up actively, which couldn't help but make them alert.

Perhaps the ghost cannot actively attack them, or the attack needs to meet certain conditions, such as creating panic, making them scattered, lost in this weird room, and attacking those who are alone.

In an instant, many possibilities flashed through Jiang Cheng's mind. He calmed down and said in a calm tone: "Let's go."

Hearing Jiang Cheng's words, the shop owner, who had just calmed down, felt weak in his legs. Fortunately, Huai Yi supported him and prevented him from falling to the ground.

With the shop owner, Huai Yi also had some thoughts of his own. Once he or Jiang Cheng was attacked, he would throw the shop owner out.

When he came in, Jiang Cheng whispered to him that he should keep an eye on the shop owner. It was hard to say whether this person had other secrets.

It never hurts to be more careful.

Xia Qiang nodded and reached a consensus with Jiang Cheng. The two of them walked slowly towards the figure not far away, one on the left and one on the right, about one meter apart.

The shop owner who was "held hostage" by Huai Yi followed behind them.

As the distance got closer, everyone finally saw the true face of the figure, and the hearts of several people were slightly relieved.

It was not a person, but a painting hanging on the wall.

The painting has a texture similar to that of an oil painting, and is quite realistic. There is also a large metal frame outside, and on it is a man.

Only the upper body is shown.

The man has a hideous face and wears a bloodstained apron, just as the shop owner described. His head is tightly wrapped with tape, and his eyes are red as if they are about to bleed at any time.

In the lower right corner of the painting, there is a line of crooked small words, which reads "Suddenly one rainy night, a murderer appeared."

After looking at this painting for a long time, everyone feels an indescribable sense of suffocation.

Look away, there are several other paintings around this painting.

When approaching, when seeing the painting closest to the Rainy Night Killer, Xia Qiang's pupils suddenly shrank, and Jiang Cheng couldn't help but take a breath.

The painting shows a female corpse lying on the ground, face down, with only a back figure left. The background is gray, but you can still vaguely see that it is at the end of the corridor, in front of a closed safety door, and the surroundings are splattered with blood.

A huge and terrifying wound starts from the right shoulder and continues to the lower left abdomen of the deceased. If it weren't for the last bit of skin left, it would almost split the whole person in half.

It was Li Mengyao who was killed first!

The texture of the oil painting is very suitable for depicting such a scene. The background of the picture is bright like a blooming bloody rose. Through the painting, it seems that you can smell the blood inside.

Soon, they found another oil painting near the oil painting of Li Mengyao, which belongs to Yuan Xiaotian.

The scene was still intense, full of despair and blood.

But this time, everyone only looked at it for a few seconds and immediately looked for the next painting. It was obvious that it was arranged in the order of the murders.

If we can find the next painting, can we determine the next victim?
