A sumptuous breakfast was served by the skeleton maid, with a variety of breakfast items placed on exquisite gold-patterned porcelain plates.
A bowl of porridge was placed in front of everyone. The color was shiny and white mist was steaming up.
Allen had silver hair and changed into a tuxedo that was slightly different from yesterday. The collar and sleeves were opened to reveal a dark red lining. He remained elegant, standing beside Xu Zhixi and leaning slightly, "Dear guests, please have breakfast."
"Ding Dong——"
A man's knife and fork fell from his hand and hit the plate in front of him with a loud sound.
"No...I'm sorry."
Lu Yinyin's eyes were timid and she apologized unnaturally.
"Lu Yinyin, if you are so nervous, you are not the one who killed Zheng Lin, are you?"
The other person sneered.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Lu Yinyin blushed and retorted, "Sun Qi, I saw you entering Zheng Lin's room last night. You are the one who killed Zheng Lin!"
"You-" The man glared at her with a sinister expression.
Allen stepped forward and interrupted the two people who were arguing, "Please don't make any noise during the meal, otherwise I will ask Miss Catherine to take him out." Although he was smiling, his eyes were very cold. The tone was also strong and undeniable.
Everyone finished the breakfast without knowing what to eat.
After Catherine put away all the dishes, the two began to argue again.
"Okay." It was He Lu who interrupted this time. "Let's each tell what we did last night! Let's start with you, Xu Zhixi." She pointed at Xu Zhixi.
"I?"
Xu Zhixi was startled.
"Yes, it's you. After all, you seemed to be the most comfortable one here last night."
He Lu raised his eyebrows.
The rest of the people either had black eyes or were in a daze.
As for Xu Zhixi, apart from being pale and thin, she was in excellent mental condition. She even changed into a beautiful dress, and her hair was carefully styled and draped softly behind her shoulders.
Everyone's eyes were focused on her, and Xu Zhixi had no choice but to say: "I went back to the room last night, took a shower, and then I went to bed, and then I got here."
"that's all?"
He Lu narrowed his eyes.
"that's all."
Xu Zhixi looked calm.
"Okay, then the next one - Gu Zi."
The man has a handsome appearance. Although he looks tired, his bearing is not reduced by half.
"Like Xu Zhixi, I went back to the room to rest last night."
Turning to herself and Zhang Chengyi, their words were also the same.
However, the three people from Zhou Min on the opposite side——
"I was just curious last night, so I went out and wanted to walk around here. Then I met Zhou Min and Sun Qi, and they went to Zheng Lin's room together. I stayed on the first floor for a short while, It always felt eerie here, and it was raining heavily outside, with lightning and thunder, so I was scared and went back to my room.”
He Lu continued to ask: "Then did you see the two of them coming out of Zheng Lin's room?"
Lu Yinyin shook her head and said thoughtfully, "My room is at the end, so I have to pass by everyone else's rooms. I didn't see them coming out before I came back."
He Lu turned to Zhou Min and Sun Qi, both of whom looked unhappy.
Zhou Min first spoke up: "We did go to see Zheng Lin last night, but it was just to reminisce about old times. You also know that the three of us had the best relationship when we were in school. We have not been in contact for so many years. We must talk more when we meet. We chatted for less than half an hour and then we came out.”
"Yes, we were just catching up on old times. Zheng Lin was fine when we left, but you, Lu Yinyin, stayed up and wandered around in the middle of the night. Maybe you took advantage of us to leave and killed Zheng Lin? Don't forget Well, here, you are the most motivated to kill!"
"You -" the color on Lu Yinyin's face disappeared, and there was a bit of ferocity in her eyes, "Although I hate him, I won't kill him."
He Lu became interested, "Oh, why don't you tell me why she is the most motivated to kill."
Sun Qi sneered, "Don't you all know? Zheng Lin liked Xu Zhixi at that time, but Xu Zhixi clung to that gloomy guy Lin Jin'an. Zheng Lin chased Lu Yinyin and then dumped her."
"It's just that Lu Yinyin shouldn't have any motive for murder."
Lu Yinyin's eyes flickered and she murmured: "We had a relationship. Zheng Lin took photos of me, and then threatened me to give him money. Otherwise, he would sell my photos. I have been attracted by him all these years. Controlled, unable to survive, unable to seek death.”
Sun Qi said: "That's right, it was Lu Yinyin who killed Zheng Lin."
"Although I want him to die, I did not kill him. Apart from me, don't you all have the motive to kill him? Others don't know, but I have been following Zheng Lin. Do you know what your relationship is with him?"
She raised her eyes with a sneer on her face and her eyes were bloodshot.
"You, Zhou Min, owe a lot of gambling debts. You and Zheng Lin borrowed 300,000 yuan from loan sharks. You owe a lot of money recently, right? Can you afford it? Zheng Lin is very good at collecting debts. Cruel, didn’t he cut off the little finger of your right hand?”
Zhou Min shrank his hand, holding a handkerchief in his right hand to block his little finger.
He Lu directly took off his handkerchief, and sure enough, his little finger was broken and still tied with a bandage.
"And you, Sun Qi, you drank a lot and owed a lot of money. You also borrowed a lot of loan sharks from Zheng Lin, right?"
Sun Qi turned away his face, full of guilt.
"So, Zheng Lin was killed by the two of them together!"
"I didn't...we really didn't go to reminisce last night. We wanted to find Zheng Lin to give us some time to repay our debts." Zhou Min wiped the sweat from his forehead again, his lips trembling, "We left last night Zheng Lin was fine at that time, but why so early in the morning..."
"We have motives, and so do you! Weren't you three bullied by Zheng Lin when you were in school? You, He Lu, were also threatened by Zheng Lin. You, Zhang Chengyi, had your papers torn up by Zheng Lin. And you, Gu Zi, you liked Xu Zhixi, so he and his men surrounded you and beat you up."
The fake smile on Gu Zi's lips subsided, and the reflection on the mirror of his glasses made it difficult to see his eyebrows clearly.
"You said that I had a crush on Xu Zhixi and was beaten by Zheng Lin's men?"
"Yes, didn't you also write a love letter to Xu Zhixi? You even took a break from school after being beaten."
Gu Zi's usually gentle and calm expression suddenly turned cold.
He couldn't quite accept this persona.
Xu Zhixi touched the tip of her nose awkwardly.
He Lu and Zhang Cheng glanced at Gu Zi, secretly laughing.
Sun Qi's eyes glanced around and finally landed on Xu Zhixi.
"Xu Zhixi, especially you, Zheng Lin harassed you every day when he was in high school, and even led people to surround Lin Jin'an. This is Lin Jin'an's territory, and we were all invited by him. So, you and Lin Jin Kishi is the biggest suspect!"
Everyone is suspicious, right?
