Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The maid gently woke up Liang Xi at seven o'clock in the morning, and brought Liang Xi a brand new black dress.  Of course, Liang Xi would not accuse the other party of looking down on his clothes, and slapping people in the face with dog eyes.  He thanked the maid and changed into his clothes.  This represents the guest's respect for the host.

    Not only Liang Xi, but also the strong man Anthony and the middle-aged man House also put on new dresses.  After having breakfast alone on the first floor of their residence, everyone went out and boarded a battery sightseeing car.  The housekeeper explained the area involved in the case in the battery car.  When they arrived at the main building complex, that is, the upper side of the rectangle, several people followed the butler into the main castle.

    The steward said: "There are 5 college students, numbered 1-5, who were invited to the island to visit a retired university professor number 6 for academic reasons. The university professor lives in a two-story villa. Our location  It's the living room on the first floor of the professor's house."

    There is a dummy corpse in the living room, and there is a tablet computer next to the corpse, explaining the information of the corpse.  Corpse No. 1, female, died 12 hours ago, shot to death, and no signs of resistance were found.

    The butler led everyone to the second floor. There are three open rooms on the second floor, namely the bedroom, the study and the second bedroom.  There was a dead body in the closet of the second bedroom.  Corpse No. 2, male, shot dead, 20 hours after death.

    The housekeeper led him to the study room, where there was a dead body sitting on a chair.  Corpse No. 6, a professor, was shot in the back of the head, and the time of death was 7 hours.

    The butler led everyone to the bedroom. There was a dead body lying on the floor of the bedroom, holding a revolver in his left hand.  Corpse No. 3, female, dead for 5 hours, with defensive injuries, committed suicide.

    Everyone went downstairs and got in the car, and drove to the beach. There was a small pier on the beach, and there was a stranded boat on the pier, with a dead body beside the boat.  Corpse No. 4, male, died 6 hours ago, with defensive injuries.

    The butler led everyone back to the beach to the dense bushes near the villa. A ground was dug up and a corpse was buried shallowly.  Corpse No. 5, male, died 30 hours ago.

    All died from the same revolver, in chronological order: 5, 2, 1, 6, 4, 3.

    The butler invited everyone to sit down in the living room of the castle, and brought tea and snacks: "After finding all the corpses and confirming the condition of the corpses, the police detectives' preliminary descriptions of the physical evidence are all in the computer in front of everyone. Compared with modern materials, it is more  Rough, the scene was described by us through materials, photos of the scene and the narration of an 18-year-old policeman at the time, who is now nearly 100 years old."

    Liang Xi knew about it, and the case was not solved.  The steward thinks that there are too many mistakes, and the more you say, the more information the organizer will provide.  Judging from the current information, everyone is dead.  Only the professor lives on the island, and the pistol belongs to the professor.

    Judging by normal circumstances, the girl No. 3 who died last was the murderer. She killed everyone and then committed suicide.  But it is strange that she did not commit suicide after killing No. 4, but after killing No. 4, she returned to the villa and committed suicide in the bedroom of the villa.  This behavior is very inexplicable.  Perhaps No. 3 is the murderer.

    The police detective in this case is still responsible, not only recording the scene as much as possible, but also taking as many photos as possible.  However, the criminal investigation technology was very backward at that time, and the details were relatively crude.  The police detectives also investigated the relationship between the 6 deceased. The 5 students belonged to the same class. The old professor was 65 years old this year. He retired a year before the 5 students went to university.  His nephew drove a boat to deliver daily necessities.  All six are physics majors.

    5 students are good friends and are all members of the tennis club.  The reason for the visit was that girl No. 3 had an innovative idea of ??string theory. After the three discussed and asked the teacher, they decided to ask the string theory expert professor No. 6 for advice to verify their ideas.  The professor replied shortly after receiving the letter, inviting girl No. 3 to study on the island with her classmates.

    5 people landed on the fishing boat of the professor's nephew, together with gifts and daily necessities.  Five days later in the morning, when the professor's nephew was delivering daily necessities, he discovered the murder on the island, so he immediately sailed back to call the police.  Detectives arrived on the island in the evening.

    This island is an isolated island.  In order to stay away from the hustle and bustle and study academics, the professor privately invested in the renovation of the island. There is no communication equipment on the island.  The only means of transportation to leave the island is a small boat at the small pier on the beach. My nephew said that this boat is used to teach recreational boating and fishing.  The boat is too small to go too far from shore.

    Today the steward will not raise the issue of the case, today's task is to investigate and understand the case.  As a detective, this is the first real live homicide since the opening of New Rose Detective Agency.

    Liang Xi does not belong to the Sherlock Holmes family, nor does he belong to the John family.  He has no idols or objects of worship, only an independent thinking brain.  Facing the complicated clues and numerous evidences, Liang Xi was thinking about leftovers: This case was not solved, so why did Blood Moon Invite come up with this case?

    &nbs?The reasoning of others.  "

    Anthony asked: "Synthetic reasoning?"

    The butler nodded: "Yes, it is no longer the previous survey site questioning. Because no one can be sure what happened on the island, we will choose the most convincing speculation, the speculation that can convince opponents. Therefore, the ability of opponents  Very important, we hope to be able to pick a naysayer among Mr Liang, Her Royal Highness, Mr House and Ms Sasha."

    The steward said: "As long as the opponents don't passively slow down their work, they can not only keep the gold coins in their hands, but also get two extra gold coins. I highly recommend Mr. Liang to be the opponent."

    Liang Xi refused: "I am a detective, I only look for the truth, and I don't find fault with the detective who is looking for the truth."

    The housekeeper nodded and said, "I have a question. After yesterday's investigation, is there anyone who has confirmed the framework of the case and identified the murderer?"

    Anthony and Liang Xi raised their hands together.  Liang Xi looked at Anthony, and Anthony chuckled, "Just guess."

    Damn it!  Lost his eyes, this guy is a bit wise and foolish.  Anthony seemed to know that this invitation was different from the past, and he didn't show any performance on the first question.

    Since Liang Xi and Anthony had already had their results, the opponents could only be selected among the other three. The middle-aged man gave up first. The reason for giving up was that he felt that he was too far away from the truth and was not qualified to be an opponent.  According to the performance of yesterday's survey, the butler recommended the princess.  Sasha, one of the candidates, didn't seem to approve of the princess becoming an opponent, but in the end she didn't speak out to stop it, so the princess became an opponent.

    The princess has a keen interest in the detective, and she finds many contradictions in the case, which she cannot explain.  Since some people think they can solve the case, the princess really hopes that they can explain these contradictions to herself.  The two people who currently claim to have solved the case are both people who now or once ran a detective agency.

    The princess looked at Liang Xi: "Mr. Liang, may I take the liberty to ask a personal question?"

    Liang Xi nodded: "Yes."

    The princess asked: "How long have you taken over the Rose Detective Agency?"

    Liang Xi replied: "About half a year."

    The princess asked: "How much is the total revenue of the detective agency?"

    Liang Xi replied: "I'm sorry Your Royal Highness, this is the second question." How to answer?  Opened for half a year and earned ¡ê21?  You have the face to ask, but I have no face to answer.

    Thresh looked at Liang Xi's serious pretentiousness, and laughed until he burst into laughter, but maintained a kind attitude on the surface: "Mr.  .¡±

    Liang Xi walked down the steps: "Yes, I'm sorry, Your Highness Princess." This prince is not bad.

    The princess said generously: "It doesn't matter."

    Seeing that the opponents had been selected, the steward said, "Since there are still three guests who have no answers, I'll give you another day. Let's solve the case together at the Blood Moon Banquet tonight."

    After lunch, Anthony and Liang Xi chatted on the city wall. Instead of talking about the case, they talked about the blood moon invitation.  Anthony, who has participated in many blood moon invitations, told Liang Xi that the invitation this time was hasty.  The middle-aged man House took the initiative to join the conversation. He told the two that the island case had only been arranged three days ago.  As a private eye, he took the unusual detective line.

    House had already conducted a comprehensive investigation on the layout of the castle, and already knew which case Blood Moon had prepared for the invitation.  But House did not expect that the castle temporarily changed the case three days ago, so the rules could only be changed temporarily.

    why?  The three are good at reasoning, and they think that the person who changed the blood moon invitation case is likely to be related to the isolated island case.  Then we talked about wishing gold coins.  House suggested that Liang Xi convert the wishing gold coins into euros or pounds.  As a private detective, House had already figured out the ins and outs of Blood Moon's invitation.  Under Liang Xi's inquiry, House explained the Blood Moon invitation to Liang Xi.

    The British earl who held the blood moon invitation was a detective fan, so he had the first blood moon invitation letter.  The invitation to the second Blood Moon was utilitarian from the start, and the special guests they invited were candidates for the core members of the European Skull and Bones Society in their minds.  Get a more three-dimensional and comprehensive understanding of candidates through blood moon invitations.

    Both the princess and the prince are targets that Skull and Bones would like to recruit.
