"The situation now is a bit unusual, and we must think carefully before we start taking action." Guo An explained: "My suggestion is that first we should divide into two groups of people, one part of which should stay in place and look after each other and monitor each other. The other part of the people need to Check each room carefully to look for clues about the case. The murderer does not rule out being someone other than us, and may be hiding somewhere in the hotel, so this group of people may be in danger."
After Guo An said this, he glanced at everyone. Almost everyone thought this arrangement was reasonable and no one objected.
"According to this, we need to split up." Feng Ye understood clearly and said proactively, "Then I will go check the group in the room. If I can really find the murderer, I will handcuff him myself!"
"Be careful." Guo An said cautiously: "Judging from the crime scene, the murderer is very cruel and has the terrifying ability to tear people apart. Once you really find something, you must contact me immediately and decide. Don’t rush in! At the same time, you have to keep an eye out, maybe the murderer may accidentally leave behind some useful clues.”
"I understand, you still can't trust me?" Feng Ye waved his hand and asked, "Then who else is with me?"
Guo An said slowly: "I have already thought about it. You need to search for clues in the hotel, the hotel owner Lao Fang is familiar with the environment here, and then you need a young adult to help you deal with emergencies." As he spoke, Guo An An has already looked towards Jiangcheng.
"Me?" Jiang Cheng was stunned. He felt that the other person's eyes were still very wary of him.
Chu Xueying said at this time: "You think too highly of him. When it comes to fighting ability, he is probably not as good as me."
Feng Ye grinned, "Interesting, you want to take risks on behalf of your boyfriend?"
"He is not my boyfriend!" Chu Xueying said with a cold face: "Anyway, I don't want to stay with this person, and I don't like crowded places. And I have skills, so I can join your group."
Guo An still remembered the scene when Chu Xueying smashed the counter with her punch just now. After thinking for a moment, he agreed with the other party's opinion.
In this way, the three of them walked upstairs again, trying to conduct a more detailed search in the hotel.
When the footsteps of the three people disappeared, Guo An looked around sharply and suddenly said: "It's time for us to start another thing."
When everyone's attention fell on Guo An, he began to say: "The situation was too confusing before, and now we need to sort out some clues here."
Xu Dingjia smiled and said: "It turns out that you think your companion is too noisy and want to drive him away."
Guo An glanced at Xu Dingjia with his peripheral vision, but did not answer. Instead, he turned to the woman with heavy makeup and asked: "I have always wanted to ask, what is your relationship with that man? Why are you here?"
The girl with heavy makeup hesitated and said: "He and I are Internet friends. We just met today, and then we..."
The woman's expression became more and more embarrassed, and her voice became smaller and smaller, but everyone except Ren Zhifei understood what she meant.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Cheng finally told Xu Dingjia what he found in the basement. Xu Dingjia was obviously very surprised and couldn't help but say "Huh".
Guo An noticed that the two of them were whispering and immediately asked, "What are you talking about?"
Xu Dingjia fell into deep thought and did not answer the other party at all. Jiang Cheng did not answer Guo An, but looked at Ren Zhifei. Ren Zhifei was also helpless, but under Black Cat's instruction, he still nodded.
Jiang Cheng then said: "We just discovered something in the basement."
"Basement?" Guo An had been to the basement before and found no clues. He obviously didn't believe what the other party said.
Ren Zhifei knew that there was no point in hiding it anymore, so he simply said: "That's not the original basement of our hotel!"
Guo An didn't understand what Ren Zhifei meant for a moment. This was obviously a hotel, so how could the basement not be the original basement
After some explanation, Guo An finally understood. He had an expression of disbelief on his face and murmured: "What does this mean? How could such a weird thing happen?"
"I'm afraid there are more weird things than this." Xu Dingjia suddenly spoke at this time.
Jiang Cheng looked at the other party and asked hurriedly: "Do you know what's going on?"
Xu Dingjia seemed to nod or shake his head. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Although we have some speculations, we still need other proofs."
Guo An looked at the other party in confusion. For some reason, he always had the feeling that the other party was a magic stick. Just as he was thinking this, he saw Xu Dingjia suddenly walking towards him, shaking his head.
"What do you think our situation is now?" Xu Dingjia suddenly turned his back on guests and asked Guo An.
Although Guo An had an urge to beat the other person up in his heart, he still calmed down and said: "What we know so far is that the victim died in a miserable state, and there are photos of everyone in the hotel on the wall. Based on this, I can only speculate that the murderer may have targeted all of us and had strong expressive intentions."
"Express intention?" Xu Dingjia continued to ask, "Why do you come to this conclusion?"
Guo An said: "Because these behaviors have a certain sense of ritual."
"A sense of ritual!" Xu Dingjia repeated and said, "You finally got to the point."
"What does this mean? Is it related to the basement?" Ren Zhifei asked puzzledly.
"It's not just the basement." Xu Dingjia said: "If it is true as I speculated, then there should be some things that we have not noticed, some seemingly ordinary but bizarre phenomena."
"Bizarre phenomenon?" Ren Zhifei looked around and started searching seriously.
"What on earth do you want to say?" Guo An couldn't stand the other party's pretense and said directly: "Isn't it interesting to pretend to be mysterious like this? Is there anything that can't be said directly?"
"Is this okay?" Xu Dingjia shook his head repeatedly, with a complicated smile on his face, and said, "If I tell you this theory directly, I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it."
"Unacceptable?" Guo An was stunned, as if he had thought of something, and couldn't help but sneered, "Could it be that your speculation is some weird thing?"
"Weird power and chaos?" Xu Dingjia thought about it seriously and said, "It's very possible."
"I suspect you are wasting time on purpose." Guo An stared at Xu Dingjia, as if asking him, "What is your real purpose!"
Xu Dingjia was frightened by the opponent's momentum and couldn't help but take two steps back, almost hitting the wall behind him. The girl with heavy makeup was standing by the wall. When she saw Xu Dingjia leaning towards her, she quickly screamed and pushed her away.
Xu Dingjia almost fell down, but his expression became a little weird, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the heavily made-up woman behind him. The woman didn't have a good impression of Xu Dingjia, but when she found that he was looking at her directly, she suddenly became ignorant and angry, and cursed: "What are you looking at! He is not a good person at first glance! Comrade police, arrest this man quickly, he He must be the murderer!"
Xu Dingjia shrugged helplessly, but a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Guo An noticed that Xu Dingjia had a strange expression and asked in a serious tone: "What are you laughing at? If you can't explain clearly, I have no choice but to take you down first." As he spoke, Guo An already took out a pair of handcuffs.
"Wait! I have something to say!" Xu Dingjia was immediately frightened and begged for mercy: "Listen to my explanation! Brother!"
The situation was tense here, when suddenly I heard Ren Zhifei shouting from the side, "I found it! It really exists! That bizarre phenomenon!"
