    【Phantom in the picture-07】

    At the same time, Xu Yishen glanced at the sunflower garden downstairs through the window and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go to the garden to see." After he said that, he used his mitotic skills to instantly separate out five clones. One of them stayed beside his teammates, while the others jumped out of the window and disappeared into the sunflower garden in a blink of an eye.

    The sunflowers in the garden are blooming brilliantly, the huge petals fluttering in the wind against the moonlight, neat and tidy, like a magnificent golden wave.

    Xu Yishen ran back and forth in the garden, and soon returned to the room on the second floor. He held the picked sunflowers in his hand and said, "The whole garden is full of sunflowers, and I didn't see a single rose. We are in a different time and space from the old castle in the beginning."

    Qin Miao asked calmly, "Continue looking for clues, or should I join Xingwen and the others first?"

    Everyone looked at each other, and all looked at the oldest brother Liu Zhaoqing.

    Liu Zhaoqing said decisively: "Let's find Xingwen first. I'm worried that they will wait for us in the original world. In case everyone walks farther and farther like a "labyrinth" and can't communicate with each other, even if they find clues, they will not be able to contact each other. Good delivery."

    Xu Yi deeply agreed: "Yes, this time and space should not be a one-time "sex". Since we have been here, we can come again. We will meet with others first, and we will discuss the next strategy, and then find clues before it is too late."

    Zhuo Feng said, "The question is, how should we go back?"

    Xu Yi thought deeply for a moment and said, "Perhaps, you can try to go back the same way?"

    Lin Manluo said: "At first, Xingwen and Xingwen were punished at the entrance on the second floor, and then we entered the room on the right, and when we came out, we found that the woman in the "Mona Lisa" painting opened her mouth wide, and the whole castle was full of her strangeness. The laughter, and later, we entered the room on the left together and saw the sunflower garden outside the window."

    Zhuo Feng nodded.

    In order to prevent everyone from getting separated, Lin Manluo simply summoned a green "color" vine. The soft vine quickly extended and wrapped around the right hands of the six classmates. In this way, everyone was bound together, and no classmates would be left behind.

    Everyone followed Zhuo Feng out of the room on the left and came to the entrance. The lower half of the woman's face in the painting turned into a bloody mouth, and there was a back-breaking laughter from the corridor again.

    Zhuo Feng ignored the weird laughter and bravely walked into the room on the right. There was Van Gogh's "Sunflower" oil painting on the wall, just like when they first entered the room on the right.

    After coming out of the room on the right, the paintings at the entrance actually returned to normal.

    Zhuo Feng saw the paper next to the hanging painting at a glance. The size and material of the paper was that Xingwen had torn it from the "Modern Idiom Dictionary". On the paper, he painted a vertical spatial structure diagram with colorful brushes. , next to it was written a line of dashing big characters: "The comic book "Maze" Palace, return the same way. The stairs are the portal, and the a world converges - Xingwen & Pingceliu."

    Xu Yishen's eyes lit up: "Of course it's the "labyrinth" of space, this is the clue left by Xingwen Pingce!"

    Zhuo Feng also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Come downstairs quickly."

    The 6 people quickly came to the first floor along the stairs, and then they saw their teammates sitting on the sofa in the living room waiting.

    Yue Xingwen immediately got up and greeted him: "Brother Liu, are you all right?"

    Liu Zhaoqing smiled and said, "It's okay, after the second floor was divided, we were sent to a fantasy in a painting."

    Ke Shaobin asked curiously, "Will the woman in the painting shed blood and tears and attack everyone with her hair?"

    Xu Yi shook his head deeply: "No, the woman in our porch painting has a mouth as big as half of her face, and has been laughing strangely, and will not attack us. There are no black roses in the garden downstairs, but sunflowers."

    Lin Manluo said with concern: "Listen to Xiao Ke, the world you entered is very dangerous, and the woman in the painting will attack?"

    Ke Shaobin said: "Yes, the women in the painting kept floating out, blood everywhere, Xingwen was strangled by them and almost strangled to death! Fortunately, Pingce reacted quickly and cut off those hairs with a triangle."

    Recalling the experience just now, Yue Xingwen also had lingering fears. He coughed lightly and said with a smile: "It was just a false alarm. I have always been worried that something will happen to you, as long as no one is injured."

    Jiang Pingce came over and gently pressed Yue Xingwen's shoulder, and whispered, "Sit down and talk. There is no time limit for this class, we can analyze it slowly and try to grasp all the details."

    Yue Xingwen nodded, pointed to the sofa in the living room and said, "Everyone sit down."

    Everyone sat down on the sofa one by one, and Yue Xingwen shared the spatial structure diagram drawn by Jiang Ping and said, "I left this picture at the entrance on the second floor, have you seen it?"

    Zhuo Feng nodded: "I see, it was drawn by Ping Ce, right?"

    Each of his worlds is drawn as a vertical space, marked with letters a, b, etc. The whole picture looks very intuitive, like the analysis answer of a geometric test question.

    Jiang Pingce said: "The two groups of us have both returned the same way and successfully converged in the a world, which shows that my speculation is correct. The interior of this ancient castle is actually a "labyrinth" of space, and the different phantoms in the painting represent us. into a different world."

    Liu Zhaoqing scratched his head and said, "So, since we split up on the second floor, every time we walk through a door or a flight of steps, we will enter a different space?"

    Jiang Pingce nodded: "Yes. What did you see after the team?"

    Qin Miao and the others handed Xu Feixue the paintings they copied: "In the first room on the right, we saw Van Gogh's "Sunflower" oil painting; later, we saw three paintings in the room on the left, and everyone simply copied them and brought them back ."

    Xu Feixue said in surprise: "The paintings you saw after the team were completely different?"

    Yue Xingwen came to take a closer look and said, "What we saw in the room on the left is "Starry Night", the room on the right is "The Last Supper"; Brother Liu and the others saw three paintings in the room on the left; in the room on the right is "The Last Supper" sunflower"."

    Ke Shaobin said: "Of course, for the first half hour, everyone has been in different spaces, and the clues they have seen are different." He looked at Xu Feixue and said, "What do these three paintings mean?"

    Xu Feixue explained: "The first painting, "Girl in a Light Veil", was painted by Italian painter Raphael. It is said that the beautiful woman in the painting is the woman he loves; The Woman with the Parasol", the painter is Monet, the woman and child in the painting are his wife and son; the third painting "Woman Holding an Ermine" is the work of Leonardo da Vinci, depicting a lover of the Duke of Milan. woman"."

    Yue Xingwen looked at the three paintings, frowning slightly: "Secret love object, mistress, wife, the identity of the person in the painting has a gradual process, and it seems to be related to the theme of replacement and exchange proposed by Ping Cezhi. ?"

    Qin Miao added: "There are also flowers in the flower bed. Black roses and sunflowers can both represent love. We see a lot of sunflowers in our time and space, but now the garden is full of black roses."

    Yue Xingwen speculated: "In other words, the family planted sunflowers in the garden at first, and then the murderer killed them, replaced one of them, shoveled out the sunflowers, and planted black roses in the garden. ?"

    Jiang Pingce said: "It is very likely that it was a love murder case. The murderer was a woman, and the motive for the crime was to kill the other party and replace him."

    The three oil paintings of women hanging on the wall and the Mona Lisa oil paintings at the entrance are all female "females", and there is a second face in the Mona Lisa paintings, and there are female "females" who shed blood and tears, Weird phantoms such as bloody mouths.

    There is a high possibility that the murderer is a woman.

    Ke Shaobin concluded: "This murder was a woman who killed the innocent 'Mona Lisa' and replaced her with a second face? So, the woman in the Mona Lisa painting will cry, Because she didn't want to die?"

    Liu Zhaoqing reminded: "The bodies we found are one man and two women."

    Jiang Pingce said: "Brother Liu judged at the time that two of the deceased had obvious osteoporosis and were older, and the other was very young. Such a combination looks like a family of three."

    Yue Xingwen said: "This young girl may be the real target of the murderer. She wanted to kill this girl, but she was caught by the girl's parents and simply killed the other party's whole family?"

    Ke Shaobin scratched his head in doubt: "But, in the three oil paintings of women, there is a little boy beside the woman holding a parasol. Where did the little boy go? Are these paintings related to the murder in the castle?"

    Yue Xing Wen Jiang Pingce glanced at each other. At present, they have only figured out the main line logic, and many details still do not match. For example, what role did the little boy in the painting mentioned by Ke Shaobin play in the whole case? Or, does this little boy really exist? What exactly do these paintings mean?

    Yue Xingwen was silent for a moment, suddenly remembered a key point, looked back at Qin Miao and said, "By the way, I ate sunflower seeds from sunflowers when I was a child. I remember that it was autumn. Do sunflowers bloom in autumn?"

    Qin Miao said: "It usually blooms in July and August, and the seeds mature in September."

    Yue Xingwen then asked, "Qin Miao, do you know when the black roses bloom?"

    Qin Miao said: "It should be prosperous in May and June, and it will slowly wither after July."

    When the students around heard this, they immediately understood Xingwen's purpose of asking two kinds of flowers to spend their time-Liu Zhaoqing and the others saw the sunflowers in full bloom, and they could infer that the time of that world should be in August; and the ancient castle at this time Outside, black roses are also in full bloom, and the time should be June.

    Suppose at first, the family planted sunflowers in the garden at the entrance. After the murderer killed the family, they leveled the garden and planted black roses. It was too late for the roses to bloom in 2 months.

    The corpses dug up in the rose garden have turned into bones, and it takes about 2 years for normal people to be buried underground. Therefore, the ancient castle world they are in should be 2 years after the murder.

    In the world where sunflowers flourish, the murder has not happened yet. The real time of the crime is likely to be after September, the autumn when the sunflowers mature!

    Realizing this, Lin Manluo immediately said excitedly: "In the world where we saw Sunflower, this family is not dead yet, maybe we can find more clues about them?"

    Yue Xingwen nodded: "Well, the current world is the world after the crime. The Sunflower World is the crime."

    Jiang Pingce looked at him and said, "Continue to investigate in teams, or together?"

    Yue Xingwen said: "If you don't have a team, waiting for each other will waste time. Moreover, without Xu Feixue's team, it is difficult to analyze the painting when you see it. Copying may miss details. So let's all act together this time."

    He stood up and said simply: "Let's go to Sunflower World first."
