    Regarding Lu Heng's death, everyone did not rush to report to the official, but checked Lu Heng's package first.

    Back then, there were Xiayu jewelry in Xi Shengnan's package. It's hard to say what Lu Heng's package will find.

    Most of the packages contained daily necessities, but a strange ebony box with a large palm caught everyone's attention.

    Qin Ci cushioned it with a cloth towel and opened this strange ebony box with some small pills in it. Qin Ci sniffed gently: "It should be a lozenges."

    "That is to say, there is no secret in Lu Heng's package?" Cao Youning's eyes flashed with panic. This is the second death he has experienced in this world, and the two who died were very close to himself. friend.

    "This box looks like a pill box. There are two similar boxes in the medicine box I wrapped," Qin Ci said, shaking the ebony box in her ear. "It sounds nothing unusual, but I always I think my pill box has a larger capacity, even though they look about the same on the outside."

    Mu Yiran took the ebony box and carefully observed the side and bottom of the box. He quickly found a small hidden drawer. Open the spring inside, and the small drawer can be pulled out.

    "This is too mysterious, I suspect that Lu Heng can't open this small drawer..." Before Cao Youning finished speaking, he watched with a dumbfounded look at Mu Yiran taking out a stack of paper from the drawer.

    "Is that the prescription?" Mu Yiran showed the paper to Qin Ci.

    Qin Ci wanted to nod his head to make sure, but for the sake of safety, he took the medical book and put the paper on the torn page, the traces of the torn paper overlapped closely.

    Everyone was stunned, never expected that the "poisonous incense" formula was secretly torn off by Lu Heng and hidden.

    Qin Ci sniffed the small drawer in the medicine box again, his expression sank, and looked at Du Lingyu: "Xiao Du, are you smelling this smell..."

    Du Lingyu nodded hard: "It's the smell. Sister Xi had that smell on her body when she died. Now Lu Heng's body... also has this smell. The smell in this drawer is heavier, but because it is placed in an ebony box. , So the taste is cleverly separated by the aroma of ebony, and it is difficult to smell. It is as if the poison was put in the chili sauce, and the taste was also separated by the strong taste of the chili sauce."

    "I don't believe it. I don't believe that Lu Heng will hide these poisons privately. I don't believe that Lu Heng will commit suicide by taking these poisons, let alone that Lu Heng will poison Sister Xi! Sister Xi is arguably the most important thing to Lu Heng. People." Mai Peng said these words intermittently.

    "Mai Peng, your face is very ugly." Du Lingyu was a little worried.

    "I have a terrible headache. It's been like this since I woke up." Mai Peng scratched his messy hair. "I still don't believe that Lu Heng will hide the poison from us! Maybe all of this is done by someone we can't see. Yes, we will all be poisoned by this person in the end."

    "No, there are probably so many poisons," Qin Ci answered Mai Peng's words. At this time, he was slowly shifting his gaze from the formula to Mai Peng's face, "I already counted all of us yesterday. Spice products, these products and our total products are less than part of the shipment, and these few spices are precisely the ingredients for this poisonous fragrance."

    "what do you mean……"

    "There is no need to have too many poison formulas. If we gather the few ingredients together, we will at most fill the small drawer of the medicine box." Qin Ci looked at everyone, "In other words, the drawer is all The poison of Xi Shengnan put a small portion in the hot sauce that poisoned Xi Shengnan, while Lu Heng ate a large portion of the rest last night."

    Luo Ling was obviously confused by this sudden series of situations: "Are these poisons matched by another person, and then this person killed Lu Heng and Xi Shengnan with these poisons."

    "If this is the case, why not kill these two people at once and divide them into two?" Wei Dong said, "If two people are poisoned at once, the success rate will be greater."

    Zhu Haowen: "And there is another premise. This imaginary murderer needs to master the habits of all of us, at least understand the tastes of each of us, before he can accurately let Xi Shengnan be poisoned by eating hot sauce, and this person has the ability to let Lu Heng sat alone at the table late at night and calmly drank the poison."

    Hearing the words "drink", Du Lingyu discovered that there was a water cup next to the wooden table where Lu Heng's body was lying on his stomach.

    The door of the house was gently pushed open, and a burst of bright warm light entered the room, and the lighter poked his head in: "Guest officials, do you need help?"

    Mu Yiran looked at the lamplighter: "We have dead people who need to be buried."

    "Okay, I'll call for help." The lamplighter left politely after saying this.

    It is the time of lighting, which is the zero point that Mu Yiran originally assumed. At this time, there is a bright warm light everywhere, as if someone who makes chicken soup whispered to you: Today is another brand new day.

    Du Lingyu frowned and sniffed his own sleeves and his wrists, and looked at the bright corridor outside the door, with an urge to escape.

    She subconsciously looked for the shadow of Ke Xun in the crowd, inexplicably, this person gave her the greatest sense of security.

    Ke Xun seems to be talking to Mai Peng, it seems to be about "supporting the coffin".

    "Ke Xun." Du Lingyu called Ke Xun in the crowd.

    Ke Xun raised his eyes, and in Du Lingyu's eyes, there seemed to be light on his face.

    Du Lingyu said: "I have some ideas, but I don't know if they are useful."

    Ke Xun's tall man walked out from the crowd: "Xiao Du, what did you think of?"

    Du Lingyu walked out of the door, speeded up a few steps to look at the corridor on the left and the stairs at the end of the corridor: "I had hallucinations just now, Lu Heng died, and he died lying on the table like this. There were only two of me and Sister Xi. I was scared at the time, so I ran out of the room and ran down the stairs along the corridor on the left... I seemed to be going to verify something with someone."

    Ke Xun didn't know what to say for a while, only felt that Du Lingyu's hallucinations were extraordinarily strange: "You seem to have memories of things in another timeline, but these memories appear occasionally."

    "You mean, my hallucination just now came from another timeline?" Du Lingyu propped his head from the corridor railing to look at the flight of stairs below. "It seemed that I was going to meet a woman, but the memory behind was completely blurred... …Sorry, I can only think of so much, and I don’t know if it’s useful."

    "If I remember correctly, every time you have hallucinations just after lighting the lamp." Ke Xun looked at the vertical lines on the corridor wall. The seven lines remained unchanged, still profound and determined, "Or maybe, It is the death event that aroused certain points in your memory. Think about it carefully, every death event is discovered after everyone wakes up-strangely, why don't the rest of us have hallucinations like you? In the real world, do you have some psychic physique?"

    "This question Shao Ling asked me too," Du Lingyu didn't seem to completely get out of the nervous mood. At this time, she was standing with her back against the wall in a self-protective gesture: "Unfortunately I am very in the real world. Ordinary, it can be said that it is completely insulated from the strange things."

    "The illusion you just mentioned was the scene of Lu Heng dying, and there was Xi Shengnan next to it. It reminded me of the photo last night," Ke Xun carefully recalled Mu Yiran's explanation of those photos last night. The picture was taken 16 hours later, and I guessed it was about 18:30. At that time, a man was sitting on the bed alone, while Xi Shengnan was lying not far away."

    "Do you mean that that man is Lu Heng?" Du Lingyu carefully recalled the content of the photo. "Sister Xi's position was already at the bottom of the photo. If I was also on the photo, the photo's The angle can't capture me."

    Du Lingyu actually calmly said this bold speculation, which made Ke Xun look at this seemingly weak girl with admiration.

    "If this is the case, I don't understand why there are only three of us left in the room. It was at night and the others had no reason to be outside..." Du Lingyu seemed to think of something, but couldn't say it anyway. Suddenly he looked at Ke Xun firmly: "I don't know why, Ke Xun, among all the members, I trust you most, even surpassing my old friends in the photography circle for many years.

    Ke Xun saw full sincerity in Du Lingyu's eyes, and there was a trace of... something similar to regret.

    "Especially when I saw these 7 lines, the feeling was very strong," Du Lingyu continued, "For some reason, I think your decision is correct, and it is a destructive move forward. A trace of compromise and hesitation."

    Du Lingyu wiped his eyes: "I don't know why these strange feelings were born, and I also said these feelings in front of you, as if these words were what I wanted to say to you a long time ago, but It's like I never have a chance to say it."

    Ke Xun heard some clues from Du Lingyu's words, but her later inexplicable and sensual language made herself confused. Ke Xun slowly approached Du Lingyu and patted the other person on the shoulder: "For a while. Go to the funeral of Lu Heng, do you have the courage to go to that window?"

    Du Lingyu nodded without hesitation: "I will definitely go. Although I am a little scared thinking about it, I want to figure out what is going on. Even if I see something more terrifying there, I think it should be. Will be closer to the truth."

    "Okay," Ke Xun faced the brave Du Lingyu, without knowing what to say for a while, "we will all be with you."

    "That's the sentence!" Du Lingyu yelled suddenly, "I remember you said the same thing: We will accompany you! All of us are united to take this step, although this step may be a step backward, but this The step backward is to move forward in the longer term! Although this step backward may be an abyss, but in exchange for eternal light!"

    Du Lingyu said these words word by word, tears flickering in his eyes.

    Ke Xun was dumbfounded for a long time: "I can tell you responsibly, I can't say these words to death..." Ke Xun scratched his head and asked: "Are you sure it was not Shao Ling who said this... "

    "That's what you said! I was crying, and many people were crying." Du Lingyu couldn't help crying again. "I can't remember the following things, but I always feel like a deserter..."

    Perhaps Du Lingyu’s voice was a bit high just now. Some of his companions came to the door one after another. Even Mu Yiran came out with a piece of paper in his hand. Large and small circles were drawn on the paper. The dividing line division of a kind of angle.

    Mu Yiran looked at Ke Xun: "Maybe there is always only one timeline, but it has been dislocated and used in segments. Perhaps there is no distinction between retrograde and forward travel, just like when we are driving on a highway and facing another lane. Because of the different directions, they always think that the other party is going retrograde."

    Ke Xun: "Can you tell me something today that I can understand..."

    Mai Peng: "I want to make the same request..."

    Mu Yiran said to Mai Peng: "According to the degree of your cold now, I think your cold will be completely cured soon, as if it had never happened.-If this thing is really realized, then it is counted. I verified my idea in disguise."
