Chapter 859 Gap
Although the distance was relatively far, Lin Muwan immediately recognized that this was his brother, Lin Muyun!
Jiang Cheng also recognized this person's identity, but what puzzled Jiang Cheng even more was Lin Muyun's movements, or posture, at this moment.
Lin Muyun is relatively tall. Even if he squats down, it is difficult to hide completely under the table. The best way is to arch his body and form an arc on his back.
But he was uncharacteristically pressed against the wall behind him, with his neck slightly forward and his head lowered, showing a very strange posture.
To be honest, Jiang Cheng's first reaction was that Lin Muyun was dead and died under the table, just like Yuan Xiaotian before.
After careful observation, no obvious wounds were found on Lin Muyun’s “corpse”.
There is no blood nearby, which is not consistent with the murderer's killing method.
"What on earth is he doing?" Jiang Cheng wondered, "No matter what, the current location is not a good hiding place. As long as the ghost has eyes, he will be able to find him."
Lin Muyun is a smart man, he will not understand this truth.
"Brother, what is he doing?" Lin Muwan picked up the book, looking anxious.
Jiang Cheng signaled Lin Muwan not to panic, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, for the time being, your brother is not in danger."
In fact, these words were a bit contrary to Lin Muyun's words. Judging by his appearance, he is not in danger and has become a ghost.
Just when Jiang Cheng was about to say something more, his constantly moving eyes suddenly stopped.
Then, as if he discovered something extremely abnormal, even his breathing stopped for half a beat.
Lin Muwan noticed Jiang Cheng's slightly changed expression, and his expression became nervous.
But when she followed Jiang Cheng's line of sight, it was still the same scene.
My brother still maintained his previous posture, as numb as a sculpture.
She found no trace of the murderer or Yuan Xiaotian.
Lin Muwan also had a bad premonition about their disappearance.
After observing to no avail, Lin Muwan finally chose to ask Jiang Cheng for help.
But this time, as soon as she picked up the book, before she could write, a hand reached out and pushed away her pen.
Jiang Cheng stood up slowly, then pressed Lin Muchan's head with his hands and applied slight force, apparently trying to make her half-kneel in front of him.
Lin Muwan didn't know why, and looked at Jiang Cheng's position with a puzzled expression. Jiang Cheng patted her and motioned her not to look at him, but to look outside the door.
Lin Muwan’s current location is where Jiangcheng was just now.
"The third bookshelf on the left." Jiang Cheng's voice had a strange flavor, which made Lin Muwan instinctively uneasy.
Looking towards the location indicated by Jiang Cheng, Lin Muwan found the third bookshelf on the left.
The bookshelf is very large, and it is located just opposite the row of tables where Lin Muyun is squatting. There is about 4 or 5 meters between them.
Lin Muwan also paid close attention to this bookshelf just now, but found nothing unusual.
There are not many books on the bookshelf, they are sparsely arranged, and there are a few vases used for decoration.
The gaps between the books are relatively large, and you can see at a glance that there is no one or anything else hidden behind the bookshelf.
“Down below.” Jiang Cheng’s voice sounded again.
Lin Muwan didn't know what Jiang Cheng meant, but along the way, she developed a strange sense of trust in Jiang Cheng. As soon as he said his words, she habitually followed them.
My gaze slowly moved down until it stopped at the bottom of the bookshelf.
The next second, Lin Muwan's pupils suddenly dilated, and then shrank into a slit.
She saw it!
On the bottom floor of the bookshelf, behind, stood a pair of black leather boots.
The toe of the leather boots is facing my brother’s position!
There is someone behind the bookshelf!
No, it’s not a human being, it’s a murderer! No wonder my brother behaved so abnormally. It turned out that he was being targeted by a murderer.
But why hasn't it attacked his brother yet?
Are you waiting for something?
Jiang Cheng naturally had no time to speculate on Lin Muwan's psychological activities. After seeing the pair of boots hidden by the murderer behind the bookshelf, Jiang Cheng immediately realized the reason for Lin Muwan's action.
He pressed his back against the wall in order not to give the murderer a chance to stand behind him.
Xia Qiang had used this method before he died.
In the last call, Xia Qiang did not skimp on any useful information and told him everything.
Lin Muyun is smarter than he thought.
Unfortunately, he will still die if he does not use external help.
Jiang Cheng kept an eye on the pair of leather boots hidden behind the bookshelf. He understood what the murderer was waiting for.
It is waiting for Yuan Xiaotian!
Just like killing Xia Qiang, Yuan Xiaotian's resurrected body will arrive here soon.
Then Yuan Xiaotian took action and dragged out Lin Muyun, whose back was pressed against the wall. After that, Lin Muyun would be stepped on by his shadow and then killed.
"Perhaps his death was the worst among all people." Such an irrelevant speculation popped up in Jiang Cheng's mind for no reason.
Noticing the gap under the bookshelf was completely Jiang Cheng's subconscious behavior. After all, Jiang Cheng had noticed this abnormality when he was in Room 19.
The visibility of the murderer is not very high. Most of the time, it is in a hidden state. Its existence can only be noticed from a certain angle.
Those boots are its distinctive feature.
The situation was urgent, leaving Jiang Cheng little time to think. By the time Yuan Xiaotian arrived, Lin Muyun would be dead.
He first stretched out his hand and pinched the back of Lin Muwan's neck hard, firstly to remind her, and secondly, doing so would relieve some of her tension.
When Lin Muwan raised his head, his face was frighteningly pale, as if all the blood had faded, and his thin lips were trembling.
"I'll find a way." Staring into Lin Muwan's eyes, Jiang Cheng said softly: "You stay here and wait for me."
Lin Muwan was naturally aware of the risks Jiang Cheng was about to encounter. He shook his head violently, grabbed the notebook, and immediately wrote: "I'll go with you!"
Jiang Cheng put on a stern tone: "You stay here Here, it is to help me always pay attention to the movements around me. Yuan Xiaotian has not yet "I'm worried that it is hiding somewhere, waiting to attack us."
When Jiang Cheng is not talking nonsense, he looks like a gentleman. For a while, Lin Muwan couldn't tell what this man was talking about. Is it true, or is it just perfunctory out of good intentions.
Jiang Cheng didn't give her a chance to continue thinking. He stretched out his hand, gently opened the safety door, then ducked and slipped out.
Then I walked quietly along the wall. There were some standing billboards nearby, which were a good cover.
While observing the situation, he called in his heart, "Brother Wu, are you okay? If you are not busy, please come out and say a word. Long time no see, I have been thinking about you strangely." (End of Chapter)
