Zhen Xi, Jia Lai, high school students and middle-aged people who looked like intellectuals were all waiting in the corridor.
Everyone remained quiet, even closing the door lightly. The middle-aged man who looked like an intellectual took out a lighter from his pocket after confirming that everyone was present.
After wiping out the flame, he put the lighter close to the door lock. A few seconds later, something magical happened. The copper door lock began to melt silently.
With the temperature of the lighter and the heat released, it is simply impossible to melt a piece of copper in such a short time under normal circumstances.
Therefore, there is only one answer. The lighter in the hands of middle-aged people is also a game prop.
However, he obviously had no idea of explanation, and quickly took back the lighter after the door lock melted.
Immediately afterwards, the high school student opened the door and rushed in with Jia Lai. After everyone entered the house, Zhen Xi closed the door as quickly as possible, and at the same time stuffed the melted keyhole with the towel in his hand to prevent the inside of the house from entering. The sound spread out.
But they soon realized that their actions seemed unnecessary.
The melting of the door lock made little noise, but when the high school student and Jia Lai burst into the room, it would wake up anyone who was not a particularly heavy sleeper.
However, Bruno was still sleeping soundly on the bed.
Even when the intellectual-looking middle-aged man came to the bedside and patted his cheek, he still didn't react. He just grunted twice and turned over.
The middle-aged man turned on the bedside table lamp, bent down, picked up a small medicine bottle that fell on the ground, and looked at it under the light.
"What is this? Sleeping pills." the high school student asked.
The middle-aged man didn't answer. He opened the medicine bottle, took out a capsule, opened it, and poured the powder inside onto the back of his hand, but he couldn't see anything.
"Can you let me take a look?" Zhen Xi on the other side stretched out his hand.
"Of course." The middle-aged man handed over the medicine bottle in his hand.
Zhen Xi inspected it very carefully. Not only did he open it and smell it, he also picked out a few pills from the powder with his little finger and tasted it. Finally, he came to the conclusion, "This thing is a bit like LSD."
"What is LSD?" Jarai asked.
"A kind of hallucinogen, whose scientific name is D-lysergic acid diethylamide, can cause users to have strong hallucinations. This feeling is difficult to describe, like you can see the flow of sounds and colors, and everything around you is... Stretch out and become part of your fantasy... I was tricked into tasting this once in a nightclub, and I know it's also addictive."
"Ah? What do you mean?" Jia Lai was still a little confused.
"That means this thing is actually a drug." The middle-aged man who looked like an intellectual said straightforwardly.
At this time, the high school students on the other side had already tied up Bruno. Only then did everyone realize that Bruno was not actually asleep. His eyes were open, but they were narrowed very small, and he still had a look of confusion on his face. A crazy smile, as if he was completely unaware of his current situation.
"It turns out that this guy is a drug addict. No wonder he looks weak every day." Jialai suddenly realized.
"Ignore that for now, business is more important. Let's search and see what props he has on him." The middle-aged man who looked like an intellectual said.
In order to prevent someone from taking advantage of this opportunity to steal the props, the players teamed up in pairs and supervised each other. After a quarter of an hour, Bruno was not only searched all over, but the place where he lived was turned upside down, and even the toilet was turned upside down. The water tank behind the cover has not been spared either.
Everyone finally found two props in the room, a fork and a cat-like tooth. However, these props were in an unidentified state in the hands of others except Bruno. If you want to know their functions, just Wait until Bruno wakes up, or at least until he's awake enough to communicate.
However, the effect of LSD lasted for a long time, and it was not until nearly five o'clock that Bruno recovered a little. After realizing his current situation, he became very angry and clamored to kill the leading middle-aged man.
But when the latter placed the bottle of LSD in front of him, he finally calmed down again.
The intellectual-looking middle-aged man pushed up his glasses and said, "So that's why you didn't let us search you before? You know very well that NASA will not let a drug addict land on the moon."
"I told you, those two things were not done by me." Bruno said angrily, "You have found the wrong person, oh wait..." He stared at the middle-aged man, "Or maybe you are the real murderer , deliberately diverting other people’s attention to me, so that you can strike again, right?”
The middle-aged man shook his head, "It's a little late to start a divorce now, isn't it? No matter what, we have to solve your problem first. I will ask you a few questions below, and I hope you can answer them truthfully."
Bruno sneered when he heard this, "So what if I answer truthfully, won't you tell people at NASA about me taking LSD?" After he finished speaking, he looked at the other four people in the room, "Sooner or later, you will all. I'm sorry, haven't you discovered it yet? It doesn't matter who the murderer is. He is just using this opportunity to kill the person who poses the greatest threat to him. I am the first one." His eyes moved to the high school nearby. student, warned, "You will be the second one."
His words clearly touched the high school student, who had a look of hesitation on his face.
At this time, the middle-aged man spoke again, "Don't let his words disturb your emotions and judgment. If you want to improve your ranking, you must surpass him, so his elimination will only be a good thing for you. This It is a result that will not change no matter what. We need to focus on finding the murderer now. Are there any other ideas that we can discuss later, do you agree?"
No one had any objections when they heard the words.
The middle-aged man moved another stool and sat in front of Bruno, "I know you hate me now, and I admit that I planned all the actions against you tonight, because you have always been the most suspect among us, but ..." He changed the topic, "I have to admit that your previous reasoning is not unreasonable. If I were the murderer, I would indeed use this matter to kill people who pose a great threat to me, so I decided to give you a counterattack. Opportunity to prove that you are not the murderer, so that your reasoning and hearing will be more credible... Although you will still be out, after you are out, I will become the person with the greatest suspicion. Isn't this kind of thing what you want to see? Of?"
"Oh, save it, I'm not a three-year-old child. I know exactly what you want. I won't give you what you want. You may never know who the murderer is, so pray well. I'm not the next target." At this time, Bruno completely relaxed. After the secret of LSD was exposed, he knew that he was finished, and made it clear that he did not want to cooperate with the middle-aged man's investigation.
