There are two small suites in room 201, one belongs to Mr. Li and the other belongs to Mrs. Li. Although they are husband and wife, they sleep in separate rooms.
Once Mr. Li died, his room became a public area where evidence could be searched, and everyone flocked into room 201 to look for clues.
"That's his room, you can only search there, you can't enter my room." Mrs. Li stood in front of her room, staring at the others warily, with a very displeased expression.
Li's nephew was by her side and did not enter Mr. Li's room.
In Mr. Li's room, there are not many furnishings, just a bed, a wardrobe, and a desk. There is nowhere to hide things, so it is easy to find evidence.
So many people suddenly squeezed into the small space, Lu Shijin was so crowded in the crowd that it was difficult for him to turn around.
Anyway, there were so many people looking for it, and he was not the only one missing. Lu Shijin simply left the room and waited for others to dig out the clues.
Rong Zhi came out after him, and the two of them moved to the door, seeing the people inside rummaging through boxes like bandits robbing, Lu Shijin suddenly felt chilled.
A person died, this is a fresh human life, not cold data, but no one cares, what they are interested in is only the evidence left by Mr. Li.
In other words, they are only interested in things related to their own interests.
This is the cruelty of this game, which allows you to see the indifference and selfishness of human nature.
"A bunch of lunatics."
Mrs. Li stood behind them and said coldly.
"Just wait, there will be retribution."
Mrs. Li's reaction does not seem like someone who would vote for Mr. Li.
So who are the three people who voted for Mr. Li? And for what purpose must Mr. Li die
Everyone does not know each other, it is impossible to kill for vendetta, so there is only one possibility, for self-protection.
Lu Shijin turned his head and glanced at Li's nephew. Although he didn't go in with the others to search for evidence, his expression was a little too calm, as if he was not interested in Mr. Li's affairs at all, which was really suspicious.
"Found it! His diary!"
The voice belonged to Mr. Feng. He took out a notebook from the pillow on the bed in the bedroom and held it in his hand to show it to everyone.
Because he was too excited, the muscles on his face were trembling, as if he had discovered a new world.
Mrs. Feng stepped on her high heels and walked up to Mr. Feng, and asked eagerly, "Look, what's written inside?"
Mr. Feng flipped through the diary, and everyone formed a circle beside Mr. Feng, waiting for his answer.
"The above said," Mr. Feng quickly browsed through Mr. Li's diary, and said as he read it, "Mr. Li often felt underestimated by Mr. Lu because he married into Lu's family. He wanted to prove that he let Lu The gentleman was impressed, and he believed his friend's words and invested in a loss-making project. He lost all his savings and embezzled public funds. After being discovered by Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu ordered him to fill in the hole in the near future, otherwise he would resign from all positions in the company. , Mr. Li became murderous towards Mr. Lu. His plan was to put a poisonous spider purchased at a high price into Mr. Lu's room, so that Mr. Lu's accidental death could be made, and he could get the inheritance as soon as possible. deficit."
After hearing this, everyone sighed endlessly. It turned out that the truth was like this.
"But when and how did he put the poisonous spider in Mr. Lu's room?" Lu Zhongze asked, "According to the timeline between him and Mrs. Li last night, except for the hour when Mrs. Li had a beauty treatment, Mr. Li went outside on the deck, and the two of them spent the rest of the time together, and during that hour, I saw that Mr. Li had never left on the deck, so he didn't have the opportunity to do something," Lu Zhongze said to Li outside the door. The wife glanced at him, raised the corners of her mouth and said, "Could it be that someone has perjured him? Does he have other accomplices?"
Mr. Feng paused for a moment, raised his head and looked out of the crowd, and said with a sneer, "Yes, he does have an accomplice, but it's not Mrs. Li."
Following Mr. Feng's gaze, everyone's eyes fell on Nephew Li. Nephew Li stiffly turned his head to the side. It was self-evident who the accomplices were.
Mr. Feng twitched the corner of his mouth contemptuously, and said: "Mr. Li wrote in his diary that his son was uneducated and caused trouble at school. Some time ago, he sexually assaulted a girl from the same school. The girl reported the case and wanted to sue him. Although the matter was settled by Mr. Lu in the end, Mr. Lu planned to cancel his nephew's inheritance rights and make his nephew hold a grudge, so the father and son decided to attack Mr. Lu together, and discussed a good show of Li Daitao's rigidity." Mr. Feng looked at Lu Zhongze, " The Mr. Li you saw on the deck is actually not Mr. Li, but his son who claims to have never been out of the room. The father and son are similar in shape and face shape. If they are disguised, you will not be able to tell them apart at night Who are these two people? Seeing him wearing Mr. Li's clothes, I took it for granted that he was Mr. Li, right? At that time, the real Mr. Li had already climbed up to the third floor and secretly put the poisonous spider inside. In Mr. Lu's room."
"Father and son working together?" Ms. Gao covered her mouth and chuckled after hearing this, "Is it true that the whole family does not enter the house, but since it is a joint case, if Mr. Lu died of Mr. Li's poisonous spider in the end, how should this be counted? Is it one murderer or both father and son are murderers?"
"Of course it is one," Rong Zhi suddenly said, and said coldly, "From a legal perspective, the accessory who plays a secondary or auxiliary role in the joint crime is an accomplice, who is given a lighter punishment than the principal offender, not a murderer. So Li Once Mr. dies, no matter whether he is the real murderer or not, the suspicion of another accomplice can be cleared."
As soon as Rong Zhi finished speaking, Lu Shijin noticed a subtle change in the expressions of several people.
Interesting, it seems that among the ten people, the father and son of the Li family are not the only ones who jointly commit crimes.
"But," Mrs. Feng pursed her lips, and asked, "Why did Mr. Li do the work and not his son? Logically speaking, the son is younger and more agile."
Lu Shijin leaned against the door and said casually: "Because he is a father, no matter how incompetent and despicable he is, he is still a father. No father would be willing to see his son's hands get killed. Unfortunately, this Just giving another person an opportunity to take advantage of."
As long as everyone thinks about it for a while, they will know who will benefit the most if Mr. Li is out.
This person was referring to, of course, Nephew Li.
And Li's nephew's unnatural reaction also explained well what it means to not call yourself.
Li's nephew is just an accessory. If Mr. Li is the real murderer, then voting for him will win the game;
So in the morning, in the living room, even without Lu Zhongze's inducement, Li's nephew must have made up his mind to vote for Mr. Li.
If Mr. Lu was really bitten by a poisonous spider, there must be poisonous wounds on his body, but the captain did not mention this, so Mr. Li's poisonous spider should not have bitten Mr. Lu. There are more possibilities for the purpose of rushing to clear one's suspicion.
Poor Mr. Li, he was betrayed just like that.
"Dog eats dog. It's a good show." Mrs. Li cast a disdainful glance at Nephew Li, turned around and entered her room, and closed the door forcefully.
Facing everyone's contemptuous gazes, Li's nephew turned into anger and said, "Don't look at me like that. People don't do it for themselves. He and I are not real father and son. I did this just to win. If you want to blame, blame the setting of this game." That's it! Some of you are probably no more noble than me. He has three votes, and I didn't vote for him alone. Anyway, now that my suspicion has been cleared, you have the time to speak out for others. Why don't you think about it? How to find the murderer!"
After he finished speaking, he walked out of Room 201 angrily. The others stayed for a while, feeling bored, and left one after another.
Although nephew Li's behavior was despicable, it opened up an idea for others.
Especially in cases where multiple persons may jointly commit crimes, as long as the principal culprit is voted out, no matter what, it will be beneficial to others.
For example, the "husband and wife" Mr. Feng and Mrs. Feng, who sang together just now, obviously distanced themselves from each other when they went out, as if they had become a lot more distant.
In the original plot, they are still allies, but when it comes to threatening their own life and death, they can betray their teammates without hesitation.
Human nature really can't stand the test at all.
But there was one more thing that made Lu Shijin puzzled.
It is known that Li's nephew voted for Mr. Li, and the other vote was probably cast by Lu Zhongze. Then who voted for the third vote
And those two votes on Lu Zhongze, what happened? Could it be his accomplice who also voted for him in the same way as Nephew Li
Although the secret of Mr. Li has been solved, the case is still full of doubts.
Next, the APP does not force everyone to return to their rooms, because the areas on the first and second floors have been opened, so everyone can freely enter and exit in the areas where activities are allowed.
Lu Shijin thought it was stuffy in the cabin, so he went to the deck to cool off.
The weather outside is good, the sky is clear, the sea breeze is gentle, the sea is shining with sunlight, and from time to time seabirds fly by at low altitude to prey. The scenery is pleasant, but Lu Shijin is not in the mood to appreciate it.
"Bad mood?"
Rong Zhi walked over from behind and didn't see Lu Shijin's face. Just based on Lu Shijin's back view, he guessed that Lu Shijin must be in a bad mood at the moment.
"One?" Rong Zhi handed Lu Shijin a cigarette, Lu Shijin hesitated for a moment, took the cigarette from the man's fingertips and put it casually in his mouth.
In fact, he doesn't have the habit of smoking, but now he is irritable, so it's good to smoke a cigarette to relieve boredom.
Rong Zhi opened the lid of the lighter, and a cluster of faint blue flames sprang up, Lu Shijin lowered his head, and directly lit the cigarette in his mouth with Rong Zhi's hand.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Shijin exhaled a puff of smoke, and his voice was a little hoarse: "I think this game is not just as simple as finding the murderer."
Rong Zhi also lit a cigarette for himself, slowly exhaled a smoke ring, and looked into the distance with Zhan Mou, "Well, you and I think the same, this is more like a test of human nature."
Lu Shijin gave him a sideways glance. This man's smoking posture was too elegant.
Lu Shijin took two puffs of his cigarette and found it boring, so he let the cigarette ignite spontaneously, watched the ash fall into the sea, and was instantly washed away by the sea, disappearing without a trace.
"I estimate that the next round of voting will be a good show for some people to bite each other after receiving the revelation from Li's nephew. Obviously, it is not just the father and son of the Li family who are jointly involved in the case."
Rong Zhi looked at him, "No matter how they bite, we have only one goal, and that is to find the real culprit. There are still five people who can vote in the second round. We have to hurry up to determine who the culprit is, and we can't just keep voting. "
"You're right," Lu Shijin nodded in agreement, "Do you have anyone you want to vote for in the next round?"
Rong Zhi pondered for a moment, before he could speak, suddenly the mobile phones in their pockets vibrated at the same time.
The two looked at each other, their expressions becoming serious.
Each of them took out their phones and opened them, and the APP sent a shocking picture that gave people goosebumps.
"Everyone, please pay attention. Li's nephew was suddenly found dead in his room. When the captain went to find him, his body was covered with spiders. The murderer has already started to act. Please find the real culprit as soon as possible!"
