Chapter 230 The Real Murderer

"Blood?"

The beam of the flashlight shone on the bright red blood, which had not yet solidified and was seeping out of the wooden treasure chest drop by drop.

"Where is the promised treasure?" At this time, I no longer had any interest in opening the box. The blood stains still flowing can already explain a lot of problems.

"Anchor, what are you doing standing there? Open the box! Wouldn't it be nice to open another box again?"

The resentful ghost who has not finished his homework: "There is blood on the ground, the wooden box hides the corpse, and it is still placed in the maze. If dismemberment is added, it will be even more perfect!"

Socrates' paradox: "Anchor, open the box. No matter whose body you see, this place is a 'treasure' for you, because it can provide you with precious clues."

Teletubbies died of murder and rewarded 99 coins in the super thriller live broadcast room: "I bet 99 coins that Yiyi's body is inside!"

The resentful ghost who hasn't finished his homework rewarded the super horror live broadcast room with 99 coins: "I also bet 99 coins that the body of our math teacher is inside!"

…

I put the flashlight aside and pushed open the wooden treasure box with both hands. The strong smell of blood hit my face.

Looking through the probe, there was a folded male body at the bottom of the box. There were many marks on his body from being struck by an axe, but the real cause of death should be suffocation.

"Most of the wounds were on the hands and back. It should be that the person was caught up by the murderer while escaping and then chopped to the ground."

"The clothes on his body were torn and twisted. When he fell down, he still tried to struggle and resisted the ax attack with both hands. Unfortunately, he was defeated in the end."

"There were obvious strangle marks on his neck. He must have been strangled to death by the murderer after he lost the ability to resist."

I turned over the man's body, and when I saw his face, I was a little surprised: "Xiao Bei?"

The big boy wearing a staff uniform in front of him was Xiaobei. His face was delicate but covered with a layer of deathly gray.

I turned his eyelids, checked the whites of his eyes and the coating on his tongue, and found that his death time would not have been too long, but the precise number of minutes ago cannot be determined with my eyes alone.

"His face was not made up with the white foundation left by the clown. This young man should be the real Xiaobei." Seeing this, things took twists and turns. I originally thought that the other party was only pretending to be Tie Ningxiang, but now I see The game the opponent is trying to play is a big one.

"Why did they kill Xiaobei?" When I first met Xiaobei in the haunted house, he was wearing a murderer's costume and seemed to be looking for something. There was a detail at that time. He picked up the item that he had picked up a few years ago. in a red dress, and then said something - How did you get here?

His tone was surprised, and he seemed to be wondering why there was a red dress in the hospital.

"The person pretending to be Xiaobei must have seen a red dress before, and Xiaobei's identity is a haunted house repairman. Pretending to be Xiaobei, he can enter and leave the haunted house at will. It seems that the place is not simple." I stood next to the corpse and said myself speculation.

Socrates' paradox: "Anchor, I once met a criminal who murdered a family and then escaped. The police had no clue and there was no progress in the case. It was not until ten years later that the police received reports from enthusiastic people that someone secretly After entering the old house where the massacre occurred, the police used clues to catch the person who sneaked into the old house, and after some interrogation, they found out that he was the murderer of the family ten years ago."

"At that time, the police asked him why he returned to his old place. His answer was that he wanted to come back and see what he had done."

"The most brutal criminals do not kill for money and interests. These people are often not short of money. They have extraordinary psychological qualities and glamorous status and professions. They kill just to satisfy their own special hobbies. That is It’s a pleasure that ordinary stimulation cannot replace.”

"Assuming that a real murder occurred five years ago, and the deceased was a little girl in a red dress, then I speculate that the person who replaced Xiaobei is probably the murderer who killed people in the haunted house many years ago. He just wanted to come back and see.”

After reading the barrage of Socratic Paradox, I nodded.

There is some truth in his analysis, and I am even more curious about the identity of this water friend. Most people will not be exposed to the analysis of the murderer's psychology.

So either he is a master of criminal psychology, or he is a psychopathic killer who is addicted to blood and cannot extricate himself!

Of course, no matter what his identity is, at least he is on my side now.

"The possibility you mentioned is entirely possible. The murderer who caused the amusement park to close five years ago will return after the amusement park opens five years later. They will want to repeat the tragedy!"

I found no other clues on Xiaobei's body, so I put him back in the wooden treasure box: "A life has occurred. It seems that we must call the police."

Human life is at stake, and since my fingerprints are here, calling the police is the most correct choice.

I took out my mobile phone and called the city branch. The person on duty was Zhao Bin. After I explained, I hurriedly hung up.

"There are treasure chests hidden in three places in the maze. Are they all full of corpses?" There was no more harvest in the room, so I took the flashlight and map and walked out of the room.

My field of vision is full of mirrors, illuminated by lights, and as I move around, the figures in the mirror are all moving. Sometimes I can’t tell whether they are my mirror image or whether there is someone really following me.

Every time I passed a fork in the road, I would use iron pliers to draw a mark on the ground. Following the map, I soon came to the second place where the treasure was buried.

Pushing open the gold-framed mirror, there was also a wooden treasure box in the center of the room.

"There is no blood on the ground and the air is very dry. This shouldn't be a corpse, right?"

I opened the lid of the wooden box. What was inside was unexpected, but also reasonable.

This is a female corpse. Her skin is so white and tender that she can squeeze out water. She is well-maintained. Unfortunately, she does not have the warmth that a living person should have.

"Li Manman?" I took out the female body and placed it on the ground, looking at her horrified face. "The time of death should have been not long ago. The cause of death... was suffocation."

I found obvious pinch marks on Li Manman's neck, and her death condition was the same as that of suffocation.

"There were no other wounds on her body, and there were no human remains in her fingernails. It's strange that she seemed to be easily killed without much struggle or resistance?"

Socrates' paradox: "Anchor, the expression on this woman's face should be a breakthrough point. She seems to have seen something very terrifying."

"Yes, but what did she see? That would make her not even have the courage to resist." I checked Li Manman's body, trying to find more clues, but I couldn't find any.

The murderer's process of killing her took less than a minute. He ambush, attack, and hide her body in a clear and orderly manner, as if it was premeditated.

"Li Manman was caught on camera when she entered the maze for the first time. What happened to her later in the maze is unknown. The scary thing is that when I came to the maze, she appeared in front of me again. At this time I’m afraid Li Manman is no longer the same person.”

The surveillance did not capture how the murderer got out of the maze, which means that there are not only the exit and entrance marked on the map, but also other ways to get out.

"The murderer knows the maze very well. Is it possible that he is a staff member who manages the maze?" At this point in the reasoning, a thought suddenly flashed through my mind: "Yes! The places where the bodies of the two murders were hidden were in the maze." inside, and the first scene of Li Manman’s death should have been in the maze, but none of this was captured by the surveillance cameras!”

As I walked along, I also noticed that there were many cameras placed above the mirrors. Then I thought about the monitoring screens in the monitoring room. There were dense surveillance here, but not a single camera captured the murderer's murder.

"This shows that he knows the maze very well, is familiar with every monitoring location, and also knows the secret passages that are not marked on the maze map. This is difficult for even the staff to do."

After trying my best to recall, I made a very bold guess about the true identity of the murderer.

"The murderer who killed two people in a row and kidnapped Tie Ningxiang and Yiyi is probably the one who designed the Magic Mirror Maze!"
