The next morning, the sun was scorching, but the small garden of the mental hospital was particularly refreshing because of the shade of trees.
At this moment, Zhao Yu was squatting next to a flower bush, pretending to stare at the bright flowers, while secretly peeping at Liu Cheng, who was three meters away from him.
Zhao Yu has such a stubborn temper. Although he had planned to return without success last night, after dawn, he still wanted to try again.
For some reason, Zhao Yu always felt that although Liu Cheng had never spoken to him in the past nine days, he could feel that he had attracted Liu Cheng's attention.
Because, in recent days, Liu Cheng has always cast curious glances at him intentionally or unintentionally, which he had never seen in the first few days.
At this moment, Liu Cheng was squatting in front of a peony flower, looking down at something.
As usual, Liu Cheng looked at it carefully and muttered something from time to time, as if talking to the flowers.
Zhao Yu once tried to inquire, but Liu Cheng didn't make a sound at all. It was impossible to know what he was talking about.
In order to attract Liu Cheng's attention, Zhao Yu followed suit and turned his lips towards the flowers, looking like a mental patient. However, Liu Cheng always dismissed him.
Time passed by minute by minute, and it was almost 10 noon in the blink of an eye. Soon, a nurse will come and take Liu Cheng to lunch.
By this time, Zhao Yu felt that his energy was almost exhausted. It seemed that Liu Cheng's inner world had been completely closed and could not be opened at all.
It is probably impossible to get the testimony of that year from his mouth.
Miao Ying was right. If he continued like this, he would just be doing useless work.
So... Zhao Yu had to stand up with disappointment, patted the dirt on his knees, and prepared to leave...
Because he squatted for too long, Zhao Yu felt that the blood in his legs was not flowing smoothly and his feet were numb, so he had to stand on the spot and slow down.
Unexpectedly, just as he was slowing down, an idea suddenly came to his mind.
Yes!
Am I not stupid
For nine days, because the system could not perform hexagrams, Zhao Yu rarely paid attention to the system. Only then did he wake up from a dream. Didn't he have a lip reader
With this magical prop, even if you don't say anything, I can still know what you are saying
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu hurriedly squatted down again regardless of the numbness in his legs, then summoned a lip reader and applied it to Liu Cheng's body.
The moment to witness the miracle arrived. When the lip reader was used, the display screen in Zhao Yu's head suddenly showed a message - garbled code!
I'm crazy...
Zhao Yu was so surprised that he just wanted to curse. From this point of view, the world of lunatics is indeed incomprehensible, and even magical props cannot be deciphered.
Something happened! What you said is not human at all, how else can you break it
This time, Zhao Yu was completely desperate. Not only was he desperate, but he was also a little manic. He felt that he, a great detective, had been insulted by a mental patient!
I don't know if he is angry or angry.
In an instant, Zhao Yu's head was filled with heat, and he threw away the self-cultivation he had gained through years of experience. He reached out and picked up a stone from under the flowers, then raised his hand and aimed at Liu Cheng, ready to strike!
I…
What the hell... I...
However, Zhao Yu was different from before. After lifting the stone, he suddenly calmed down and quickly stopped his hand. He even broke out in a cold sweat.
This... what's going on
Zhao Yu trembled, looking at the stone in his hand, he couldn't help but feel scared.
I... am I not a great detective
Why did he suddenly become the little ruffian he used to be
Why would you still use such despicable means subconsciously
Is this... my nature hard to change
oh…
Zhao Yu took a deep breath and then came back to his senses. It seemed that he had been affected to some extent by staying in the mental hospital for so many days. This was not good...
As a result, at this juncture, an even more bizarre thing happened.
Liu Cheng, who had been staring at the flowers in the distance, suddenly turned around and said to Zhao Yu with wide eyes: "You... you finally found out? I... I thought only I could hear it!"
Whoa…
For a moment, Zhao Yu seemed to be frozen first and then roasted by fire.
this…
The next second, Zhao Yu saw clearly that Liu Cheng's eyes fell on the stone in his hand.
"You..." Liu Cheng asked timidly, "Are you going to throw it away?"
"I..." Because the incident happened so suddenly, Zhao Yu was completely stunned. He just held up the stone in embarrassment, not knowing what to do
"I advise you not to be impulsive..." Liu Cheng said seriously, "I was just like you at first, wanting to throw it away, but...
"Look..." As he spoke, Liu Cheng pointed to the garden, "There are so many of his companions here! If you throw one away, they will retaliate!"
"I..." Zhao Yu felt like he was about to turn into ashes.
Before this, I had designed countless lines, but now that I saw Liu Cheng really talking to me, I was speechless.
However, Zhao Yu is a detective with quick thinking after all. Liu Cheng's words may seem nonsense, but they still have certain indicative meaning.
Zhao Yu guessed that the reason why Liu Cheng talked to him might have something to do with the stone in his hand.
Stone…
Zhao Yu took a look. In order to make the small garden beautiful, some ornamental pebbles were laid under the flowers. Each of these stones was about the size of a goose egg, with different colors, and looked more beautiful.
Difficult... Could it be...
Zhao Yu suddenly realized, no wonder he couldn't get anything done for 9 days! It turned out that what Liu Cheng paid attention to was not the bright flowers, but the stones under the flowers!
this…
"You'd better put it down!" At this time, Liu Cheng seriously advised, "As time goes by, you will know that it is our good friend!
"They know everything, they can tell you stories, and they can also guess riddles..."
"..." Zhao Yu frowned, thinking quickly in his mind, how to continue
Got it!
Zhao Yu thought quickly, his eyes lit up, and he suddenly came up with an idea. He quickly cleared his throat, pointed at the stone in his hand and said, "It's very irritating. He doesn't believe what I say, so I'm going to throw it away!"
"It... doesn't believe it?" Liu Cheng repeated, with a dull expression.
"Yes!" Zhao Yu said quickly, "I told you that I have seen a murderer, how dare you not believe it!"
"Murderer!?" Liu Cheng repeated again, with a dull expression, but a bit curious.
"Yes!" Zhao Yu said seriously, "I told it that I saw a murderer kill a person in the women's restroom! I could see it clearly, but it..." Zhao Yu pointed at the stone and said angrily, "It doesn't even believe it!
"It must be said that it was not me who saw the murderer, but you..."
As he spoke, Zhao Yu pointed at Liu Cheng. Because he was unsure, his wrist kept shaking...
“…”
At this time, Liu Cheng's eyebrows were raised, as if he was thinking about something. After thinking for several seconds, he finally said: "I have seen the murderer!? The women's restroom, yes... that's it... he killed someone in the women's restroom. , the person who was killed was my nurse..."
Wow!
Zhao Yu was greatly excited, but he still said in a desperate manner: "Impossible, you have already forgotten what the murderer looks like, right?"
"I...I remember!" Liu Cheng said affirmatively with his eyes widened.
Very good!
Zhao Yu quickly took out Nong Zhifa's photo, held it up in front of Liu Cheng and asked, "Look, is it this person!?"
Liu Cheng looked at the photo carefully, and then made an action that shocked Zhao Yu.
He shook his head vigorously and said with certainty: "No, it's not—this person!!!"
