"Dead people!"
"Someone died?!"
"Damn it! It's Robert, Clark, Darnay!"
"They..."
As soon as it dawned, Richard heard a noise in the corridor outside the cabin. Apparently the students who got up discovered the body.
Glancing at the bed, Pandora fell asleep unaffected, without any intention of getting up. Richard shook his head, opened the cabin door and walked out, and saw many people gathered in the corridor.
The students in the third-floor cabin all poked their heads out from their respective cabins to watch, and people in the cabin above also kept coming down to check the situation - it is human nature to "watch the excitement".
Richard turned his head and looked to the side, watching Grotto standing at the door of the cabin with his neck curled up, only a few meters away from the scene where the body was found, with a pale face.
Richard stepped over and patted Gro's shoulder lightly. He was startled when he saw Gro's whole body shaking.
Gro turned his head stiffly and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it was Richard. He kept stroking his chest and said, "Your Excellency Richard, you scared me to death."
"What, are you scared?"
"Of course, don't even look at how close this corpse is to my cabin door. Who knows, it will be my turn next time." Gro said, subconsciously swallowing his saliva.
"The body was so close to your cabin door. Didn't you hear anything last night?" A voice appeared and asked Gro. Grotto looked over and saw Nancy walking down from the first cabin, walking nearby and looking at him, while saying hello to Richard.
"Um, um..." After hearing Nancy's question, Groh hesitated for a moment, recalled it carefully, then shook his head in confusion and replied, "I... I didn't seem to hear any sound at all, really. "
"So, the murderer is very powerful and definitely has magic ability, otherwise it would be impossible to kill three people so quietly." After hearing what Gro said, Nancy quickly analyzed and looked at Richard to ask ,"What do you think?"
"Same as you." Richard said. After discovering the black powder last night, he already had a clearer understanding of the entire murder incident, but he didn't want to reveal it. After all, it involved many secrets.
Nancy didn't have much doubt, and just said seriously: "Then you have to be careful."
"I will pay attention." Richard nodded slightly, "You should also be careful."
"Yeah." Nancy responded.
Gro was beside him. He looked at Richard and then at Nancy. He opened and closed his mouth, lowered his head and whispered weakly: "I will also be careful."
"You don't have to be careful," Nancy said.
"Huh? I... why shouldn't I be careful?" Grot looked up with a puzzled expression.
"Because your ability is similar to the three dead students. If you are really targeted by the murderer, you will definitely not survive. It is useless to be careful. It is better to relax and put yourself in a good mood. This way , you can die with a smile, you don’t have to die so ugly like the three of them." Nancy said, pointing at the three people next to her.
Gro looked over and saw that the three corpses had round eyes and wide open mouths. They were indeed unsightly and could even be called abominable.
Gro: "..."
Withdrawing his gaze, Gro looked at Nancy, feeling the urge to bite. He admitted that Nancy was telling the truth, but it was too real - it was as solid as a solid stone ball, and it hurt him very much when it hit him. By the way, why does he feel that Nancy is deliberately targeting him? Is it an illusion? Or is it true
Ge Luo was thinking wildly in his mind. Although he was itching with hatred, he was helpless. Under Nancy's calm gaze, she said in a submissive and weak voice: "If I really meet the murderer, I will try my best... to die a less ugly death."
Nancy said calmly: "Come on."
Gro: "..." Are you just looking forward to my death? What good will it do you if I die? !
Richard couldn't help but smile in his heart, looked at Nancy, and found that in addition to her outstanding abilities, Nancy also had a major characteristic, that is, her poisonous tongue. Although it was not shown in the conversation with myself, it was expressed vividly in the conversation with Gro. Is this a deliberate attack on Gro? is this necessary
"Pa", Richard patted Gro's shoulder lightly and said comfortingly, "Actually, you don't have to worry too much. The murderer may not continue to attack students."
"Huh?" Richard was stunned.
Nancy's eyes flashed thoughtfully: "What do you mean..."
"First, six sailors died, and now three students have died. The identity of the people killed is constantly escalating. Maybe next time it will be..." Richard didn't finish his words and turned his head to look towards the stairs. He said out loud, "They are coming."
Nancy and Gro looked over and saw Potter walking down with someone.
The three ordinary students who had been following Potter and helping to collect the corpses have now become new corpses, so this time Potter brought six new students to follow him. At the same time, there were three wizard apprentices surrounding him.
At this time, Potter's face looked slightly ugly and his brows were furrowed. It was obvious that he was very anxious about the continuous and unclear murders. The deaths of three students made him even more angry.
However, at this time, Potter still maintained his apparent composure, walked up to the body, looked at it for a few times, turned around and said something to the three wizard apprentices following him.
The corridor was very noisy, and Potter's voice was deliberately lowered. Richard couldn't hear what the other party said, but he could guess the cause of death of the three corpses and the murderer's method of killing.
For a moment, Potter stopped talking to his companions, looked at the people around him, and said, "I know everyone must be very scared and think I am incompetent. Because I did not stop the murderer from continuing to kill, and even allowed the other party to kill three people." student killed."
The people around him fell silent and looked at Potter.
"Here, I have to admit my incompetence." Potter said calmly, scanning the crowd, his eyes gradually becoming sharper, "But I will never back down."
"When people die, I didn't kill them, but they are my responsibility. Because Teacher Dempsey entrusted me with maintaining order, I have the responsibility to protect everyone's safety. I am not going to explain this matter again. What, even if you want to explain it, everyone must be tired of hearing it in the past few days.
Here, I just want to say that I am not afraid of death and I will be responsible to the end. Starting tonight, I will lead people to patrol the entire ship, and I will ensure that the cabins on the three floors below the deck are guarded by wizard apprentices. If the murderer appears again and wants to kill people, then kill the wizard apprentice first and kill me first! that's all. "
After Potter finished speaking, he said no more, waved his hand to the six new students behind him and said, "Take the body away and clean it up."
Everyone was stunned, and Potter walked directly to the upper level with the three wizard apprentices around him, then walked onto the deck and walked into the cabin where the wizard was.
