Chapter 245 The truth is often hidden in the details!
A fierce ghost sneaked into the crowd in the hall, which made everyone in the hall wary and fearful of each other.
At this moment, Yang Jian discovered that Huang Li's body on the floor of the hall suddenly disappeared. It was suspected that the evil ghost in the other party's body had revived.
“First there were evil ghosts, and now there are dead evil spirits resurrecting. The Ping An Hotel is becoming more and more dangerous. However, the door of the hotel is closed and cannot be opened at all. It seems that the evil ghosts want to keep everyone here. , then what is its killing pattern?"
Yang Jian frowned.
Although he didn't know who among the people in the hall was the evil spirit, he was certain that the evil spirit's killing pattern was definitely not indiscriminate killing.
Li Gui's actions should have followed a certain pattern, otherwise after such a long time, the number of dead in the hall would definitely be more than six.
There was no shortage of vigilant and attentive people in the hall. Apart from Yang Jian, others soon discovered that Huang Li's body was missing, but most of them were the same as Yang Jian. Didn't choose to speak out.
However, there are exceptions. One of them, a young man who was wearing a high school uniform and looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, screamed: "Damn it, why is there suddenly one less body on the ground? Could it be? Is the evil spirit in his body revived? "
The moment the young man spoke, everyone in the hall turned their eyes to him, each with a look that was akin to scrutiny.
"Don't look at me like this. It feels weird. I'm not a ghost. You must and should be wary of the ghost in the dark and the corpse that has disappeared!"
It seems that everyone is being caught. The young man who looked like a high school student continued to speak, intending to draw everyone's attention elsewhere.
Hearing this, most people, including Yang Jian, did retract their gazes and turned to look at other people in the hall, but a small number of people still kept their gazes unchanged and continued to look away. On this young man who looks like a high school student.
"One, two, three, four..."
Yang Jian glanced at everyone in the hall and silently listed a few people who looked more suspicious. .
It is worth mentioning.
As the deputy captain of the headquarters wiring department and the person in charge of this operation, Shen Liang has also become one of Yang Jian's key suspects.
Including Shen Liang, a total of four people were on Yang Jian's suspect list, including the one who spoke before. He looked a little thin and was about twenty-six or seven years old. man.
Beyond that.
There is also a young man standing in the same position as Huang Li before, also closer to the stairs; and a middle-aged man standing in the corner without moving a step from beginning to end.
Of course, apart from these four people, other people were not excluded by Yang Jian. They were still suspected, but in Yang Jian's view, they were not as suspicious as the above four people.
Even the middle-aged fat man who was the first to ask Shen Liang what to do, and the high school student who just spoke, their suspiciousness was ranked behind Shen Liang and the four of them by Yang Jian.
The reason why Yang Jian suspected the four of them was also very simple.
The thin man among them jumped out to respond to Shen Liang when he shouldn't have spoken. This was a very abnormal behavior.
After all, the situation in the hotel lobby is so special now. There is a ghost hidden among them. Every time they say a word, they are likely to fall into the ghost's trap. So, aren't normal people's reactions the same? Should I keep silent?
Just like Shen Liang.
Shen Liang was obviously the person involved. After all, he was the one who was asked questions, but he did not dare to respond immediately. As a bystander, he couldn't wait to jump out, so the man directly It was on Yang Jian's "suspect list" in his mind.
Not only Yang Jian himself, but also most people in the hall would look at the thin man from time to time. It was obvious that everyone was also suspicious of this man.
As for the other person who is closer to the stairs, the reason why Yang Jian is seriously suspicious is because he is too close to the stairs!
The six people killed by Li Gui before, including Huang Li, were all relatively close to the stairs.
Huang Li was the first person to die and the person closest to the stairs, then the second person and the person second closest to the stairs, then the third and fourth...
The weird thing is.
Now this young man who is heavily suspected by Yang Jian is the closest person after Huang Li and other four people who died.
However, the fifth person who died next was not him, but bypassed him directly. The person who died was a person behind him, and the sixth person who died was another person behind him.
In this case, if the order of being attacked by the ghosts is arranged according to the distance from the stairs, then the order of Huang Li and the four people who died first will be fine, but from the fifth person Changes began.
But if the pattern of ghosts attacking people is not closely related to the distance from the stairs, then the only connection point between Huang Li and the other four people who died at the beginning seems to be this.
Yang Jian observed very carefully. Ever since Huang Li was attacked by a ghost and died, he has been observing the surrounding environment and taking in all the actions of everyone around him.
The second unlucky guy followed, the third, the fourth...
During this period it was not that no one tried to save them, but in the end they all ended in failure. , let alone saving them, until now they have never seen the true appearance of Li Gui.
Under Yang Jian's observation, he did not find that the four people who died at the beginning had anything in common, so Yang Jian and the others still don't know the murderous patterns of Li Gui.
The only relevant thing is that the order of their death is arranged according to the distance from the stairs.
As for the bad guys sneaking into the crowd, we have to mention the fifth and sixth deceased.
The fifth deceased in the hall was killed by the sixth deceased. At that time, four people had died in the hall, and everyone left was in danger. At that time, a killing horse The specially dressed woman suddenly became violent and killed a person next to her, which was the fifth deceased in the hall.
Just after the fifth person died, the girl who killed Matt also died one after another, becoming the sixth deceased. Before that, the girl behaved very normally and had no connection with the other people in the hall. different.
It was from that time on that everyone knew that there were evil spirits sneaking into the crowd.
And people whose bodies are possessed by evil ghosts will not behave strangely, just like usual.
The other middle-aged man standing in the corner without moving a step became Yang Jian's major suspect because he was too calm, a little too calm.
From the beginning to now, Yang Jian has never seen even a trace of anxiety on his face. He always has a calm face and a calm look in his eyes.
Even when Huang Li and six other people died, the middle-aged man only glanced at him calmly and then stopped paying attention. This seemed very abnormal to Yang Jian. of.
Not only do you care about the life and death of other people, but you should at least pay attention to the development of the situation like everyone else. It is best to find commonalities among the several deceased people, so as to speculate on the murderous patterns of the ghosts. ?
And Yang Jian has reason to believe that he is definitely not the only one who is suspicious of the middle-aged man in the corner. This can be seen from everyone's position.
There was no one around the corner where the middle-aged man was except himself. All the people who were standing nearby moved away from the place, as if they were afraid that the middle-aged man would suddenly rise up and attack them.
As for the last person that Yang Jian focused on, Shen Liang, the deputy captain of the wiring department.
In fact, Yang Jian had no reason to suspect him, and Shen Liang had no unusual behavior. The reason why he was on Yang Jian's list of key suspects was entirely because of Yang Jian's intuition.
I don’t know why, even though Shen Liang didn’t do anything abnormal, Yang Jian always felt that there was something wrong with him. This is something similar to the so-called sixth sense, which is mysterious and mysterious.
So Yang Jian's suspicion of Shen Liang is very simple and pure, just because I think there is something wrong with you, then you will become my key suspect!
At this moment.
Everyone in the hall was busy looking for a way out. At the same time, they were also wary of other people in the hall, for fear that they would be the next one to be attacked by a ghost.
Currently, they cannot stay in the hotel. After all, it is too dangerous inside the hotel. However, the doors and windows of the hotel cannot be opened or even knocked open, so they now need to find a new way out.
Before this, it was not that no one suggested going up the stairs to see if the windows on the second floor of the hotel could be opened. Jumping out of the window from the second floor would also be a good way to escape.
But this proposal was cut short at the very beginning of the operation.
Someone did take action at that time. A middle-aged ghost controller who looked relatively stable took the lead and was the first to step onto the stairs.
But the moment the middle-aged ghost controller stepped onto the stairs, he disappeared, leaving no trace behind.
From the perspective of others in the hall, the middle-aged ghost controller lost contact after stepping onto the stairs. He was suspected of being attacked by a powerful ghost and became the seventh death among them.
But this is not the case in Yang Jian's eyes.
The middle-aged ghost controller did indeed disappear the moment he stepped onto the stairs. The process that Yang Jian witnessed with his own eyes at that time was like being teleported to other places by the ghostly realm painted by ghosts.
But no matter what, after the middle-aged ghost controller lost contact, no one else in the hall mentioned going up the stairs anymore, including Yang Jian.
Although it is believed that the ghost controller was most likely transferred to another place by the ghostly realm drawn by the ghost, that is only what he thinks. The specific situation remains to be verified.
Ten thousand steps back.
Even if the middle-aged ghost controller was moved to another place by the ghost realm, he must still be in the ghost realm of ghost paintings. Who can be sure that it will be safe there?
If you were transferred from the ghost realm to a group of fierce ghosts, it would be a lot of fun.
“Wait!”
Suddenly.
Yang Jian seemed to have thought of something, his eyes flashed, and then he quickly looked at the other people around him and the several corpses on the ground.
"Stairs...distance...the killing pattern of ghosts is related to the stairs, and even the order of killings of ghosts is arranged according to the distance from the stairs!"
"The real order of arrangement is not based on the usual position, but based on the position after Li Gui killed the last person."
"Huang Li was closest to the stairs at that time. After death, the closest person is the second deceased, and all the way up to the fourth deceased are correct, but something unexpected happened starting from the fifth person."
"At that time, the fourth deceased was attacked by a ghost. At that time, the fifth deceased and the sixth deceased both came "
"Although the final result was a failure, in the immediate aftermath of the death of the fourth victim, the person closest to the stairs was not the young man I suspected now, but They are the fifth and sixth deceased, so there is no problem with the actual order of death!"
"If this is the case, then all this will make sense."< br>
After sorting out everything from beginning to end, Yang Jian finally discovered the problem and found a trace of the evil ghost.
"In other words, the reason why the seventh deceased has not appeared in the hall so far is because the seventh person targeted by the ghost is not in the hall on the first floor. It is the ghost painted by the ghost. The middle-aged ghost controller who left? "
Yang Jian knew that some ghosts acted according to a special pattern of action. They would only attack if the person who triggered their killing pattern died. Next person.
And if Yang Jian's guess is accurate, then only if the previous person dies, then the next person closest to the stairs will be targeted by the ghost.
As long as the "seventh person" has not died, then as long as Li Gui's behavior remains unchanged, there will be no so-called "eighth" deceased.
then.
All this must be based on the fact that Yang Jian's conjecture is established, but at present, it seems that his conjecture is indeed correct.
Now he just hopes that the middle-aged ghost controller who didn't know where he was transferred can work harder and not die, so that the survival rate of these people in their hall can be improved a lot.
………………
At the same time.
The other side of Dajing City.
After the building where Su Mubai was located was shrouded in the ghostly realm of ghost paintings, Su Mubai discovered that great changes had taken place in the place where he was.
Although the place where he was standing now was also on the top floor of a hundred-meter-high building, Su Mubai could be sure that the building under him was definitely not the previous one.
Even, the city he is currently in is probably no longer "Dajing City" in the strict sense.
Standing a hundred meters high, Su Mubai looked down and had a panoramic view of half of the city.
now.
In Su Mubai's eyes, the other high-rise buildings in the city below, as well as the crisscrossing streets and highways, were very different from the Dajing City in his mind.
It can be said.
The city he is in now and Dajing City are completely different cities!
After all, as one of the leaders of Dajing City, Ye Chen is extremely familiar with the entire city. There are even several alleys in one street, and he knows where each alley leads.
Because this is Ye Chen's job. Wherever a supernatural event occurs or a strange phenomenon occurs, he needs to discover and deal with it as soon as possible.
After Su Mubai invaded Ye Chen, all the other party's memories became his own memories, so he was 100% sure that the city he was in now was not Dajing City.
It is a city that is completely unfamiliar to both Su Mubai and Ye Chen's memories!
“The ghost realm of ghost paintings is indeed special enough, just like a real world. Each painting can extend a different city scene, and all oil paintings can be connected to each other.”
Su Mubai knew that this was a supernatural phenomenon. After being shrouded in the ghost realm of ghost paintings, he entered one of the paintings.
The background of the oil painting he is in is this city that is completely unfamiliar to him!
