I'm not Yingjie

In other words, it is very likely that Kosmo did not fall from here.

The only higher place was the roof, but how could Kosmo be pushed down from the roof? There was no direct access to the roof in the villa, and Kosmo could not have climbed up to the roof for no reason.

What was he missing? If Kosmo didn't fall here, where else could someone fall to their death from a height?

No... After all, did Kosmo really "fall to death"?

Among the fourteen of them, only Su was a doctor, and he was the first to be killed, which resulted in none of the remaining people being able to tell the cause of death at a glance.

Could this also be the murderer's plan?

But if we follow this line of thought, then the crime scene probably wasn't here, but...

Lin took Aponia to the second floor, and sure enough, he found some tiny marks and bloodstains by the window. The murder weapon was the decorative statue next to it, which still had some bloodstains on it.

The real cause of Kosmo's death was being beaten with a blunt object, and the murderer also cruelly broke some of his joints to create the illusion of death by falling.

The murderer's ulterior motive was probably to carry out the murder according to the "fate of thirteen people" written on the paper, but Lin discovered a problem from this incident.

Although the final outcome of Kevin and Kosmo's deaths were consistent with the fate of the thirteen people, Kevin had no other external injuries on his body. He was burned to death, while Kosmo died first and then fell from the building.

This inconsistency made Lin have some guesses in his mind.

"Let's go and tell them this information."

Lin said to Aponiya that with Alicia and Vilvi downstairs, they should have some new discoveries.

……

Lin went downstairs. They had not returned to the villa yet. They were probably still investigating in the back. Only Padu, who was wearing a puppet costume and was unable to move, was lying next to the sofa.

Wait, why is Paddo here?

Padu is the most scared person. Isn't she scared to stay alone in the hall instead of following the others?

"Pado?" Lin called hesitantly.

The puppet suit was motionless, and only the bulge inside gave away that there was actually someone inside.

He immediately walked over, squatted next to Padu and patted her head inside her puppet costume: "Padu?"

"..."

The dead silence made Lin's pupils gradually shrink.

With shaking hands, he unzipped the back of his puppet costume.

"Clap."

A bloodless and painful face fell out from it.

At this time, Abonya had also come behind Lin. She covered her mouth and trembled in disbelief, "Pado... is dead?"

"The hidden man suffocates in the cloth."

Lin didn't care about anything else, and didn't even have time to savor the grief. He immediately checked Pado's body.

His face was purple, his eyeballs were bulging, there were no marks on his neck, and his conjunctiva was bleeding...

Lin is not a professional forensic doctor, but he has seen the characteristics of death from suffocation in some works. Pado's cause of death is a very typical suffocation.

Suffocated inside a puppet?

Who did it? Among those who went out, who did all this?

"Oh!"

The door was pushed open suddenly. Lin turned around and saw Alicia standing at the door with a pale face. When she saw Pado's body, the last bit of blood disappeared.

"Lin... Ying, dead..."

In just a few minutes, two dead people appeared one after another.

……

Thanks to everyone's efforts, all the bodies of the dead have been moved to the hall for investigation.

Kevin died of burns. No other signs could be seen on the body which was almost charred, so there was no way to infer whether he had died before being ignited. However, Lin tentatively believed that Kevin died of burns.

Kosmo died from blunt force trauma. After reconfirming Kosmo's wounds, Lin was sure that he did not die from falling from a building.

Paddo died of suffocation, which has been investigated.

And the last one...

Lin came silently to Ying's body with eyes open.

There was a shiny dagger stuck in her chest, with the handle of the knife piercing her heart and killing her instantly. Judging from her confused expression, she didn't understand what was happening until she died.

"The fearful hang themselves on the blade."

This is different from the way the thirteen people died, because the fearful person in the thirteen people died by "hanging", while Sakura was killed by others.

So far, there have been two cases of following the fate of the thirteen people and two cases of not following their ways.

"Ying went to the corner of the villa while investigating the footprints. We were a step slower than her, and then we saw her..."

"Didn't you see who did it?"

"No, the murderer was so fast that we don't even know where he went. There were no footprints left on the snow..."

This time, no footprints were left?

"…What about the footprints from before?"

"What we can confirm is that the footprints were female. A male's footprints can't be that small."

Different ways of death, traces in the utility room, inconsistent footprints, and people who died at the same time...

"There are two murderers..."

April Fools' Day Special: Snow Mountain Villa Heroes Group Destroyed Event 7

There are two murderers.

Judging from the time when Paduo and Ying were killed, it is only possible that two people acted together to kill Paduo and Ying at the same time, and their methods of committing the crime were completely different. One strictly followed the method of the thirteen people's fate, and the other just disguised the death of the thirteen people's fate after killing someone.

Moreover, one of the people was not from the villa. He had been to the utility room, where there were signs that some of the coffee and dry food had been taken away. That person might be the one who left footprints outside the villa.

This person is the murderer who did not follow the killing method of thirteen people. Sakura was very calm throughout the whole process and was not a "fearful person", but she still chose to kill Sakura. In other words, whoever went to the corner first would be killed.

"Can we really still survive..."

Weiwei's words expressed the thoughts of the rest of the people.

Even though Lin already knew that there were two murderers and had uncovered the truth behind Kosmo's death, the fundamental question remained unsolved - who was the murderer?

Aponia stayed by Lin's side the whole time, so he could conclude that she had no chance to kill Padu or Ying and then come back to him. Even so, it only ruled out one person.

At this point, Lin had no choice but to ask the question he didn't want to ask.

"Tell me, what were you doing at that time..."

……

In the end, there was still no useful intelligence. Everyone was outside investigating at the time. There were too many people, and the footprints of the investigation needed to be slightly separated. Even if one person was missing, it would not be discovered at the first time.

Lin had no choice but to come outside and conduct another search himself.

But with Sakura's previous experience as a lesson, this time, he and Abonya stayed especially close to each other, just to prevent the murderer from appearing again and killing someone and escaping.

Lin came to the row of footprints that were almost invisible.

As they said, the footprints were the size of a woman's feet and were particularly deep, otherwise they would have been covered by the wind and snow. This set of footprints almost spanned the entire back of the villa.

Female... This murderer is the one who killed Kosmo. Logically speaking, it would be difficult for a female to knock him down head-on given Kosmo's physique. Moreover, the size of the footprints can be used to infer his approximate height, so he would not be very tall. So the only option is a sneak attack.

But why did Kosmo go to the second floor and get ambushed? This doesn't make sense at all...

Everything so far is still missing a key, a key that connects all the clues so far.

“…Is this the end?”

Lin looked at the empty space at the end and shook his head, but at this moment, he caught a glimpse of a place out of the corner of his eye.

strangeness……

With just one glance, Lin's attention was focused on it, and he compared the place he saw with other similar places.

"Lin, I have something to tell you."

"..."

Lin glanced at Abonya, she looked very worried, so Lin asked casually, "What's the matter?"

"You... should have heard what Qianjie told you... about what I said... on the day you and Mebius got married..."

"…Don't take it to heart. People always make mistakes sometimes."

"No... What I want to say is, if possible... please listen to what I have to say patiently..."

"You say it."

After getting Lin's consent, Abonya exhaled a puff of white mist and said slowly: "At that time... I was drunk... But what I said... was true..."

"You said that Mobius was too much?"

"Yes……"

"So, what did she do?"

"She violated... Never mind, it's nothing... Let's just leave it as the past..."

Aponya clasped her hands together, closed her eyes and prayed.

"Lin, what I'm going to say next..."

……

"Today, let's all sleep in the hall."

No one objected, or rather, no one dared to object anymore.

Lin didn't say anything more. He leaned back on the sofa and fell asleep. Some of the others didn't dare to sleep, while others just followed Lin's example and fell asleep without caring about anything.

Qianjie was obviously the type with a rougher nerve. He took the lead and began to sleep. Only after the others saw that the only two men had fallen asleep did they dare to close their eyes and rest secretly.

If it's a light sleep, it shouldn't be a problem.

……

“Lin…Lin…”

Lin was awakened by Qianjie. He opened his eyes in a daze and saw the anxious Qianjie.

"What's wrong, Qianjie?"

He felt a slight headache, a headache that only occurred when he overslept or was woken up from a deep sleep. He was a little confused. He clearly just wanted to have a light sleep, and with his alertness at the time, it was impossible for him to have a deep sleep.

"Aponya, Aponya is gone."

Hearing this, Lin turned over and found that the only person missing from the sleepers was Aponia.

At this moment, he immediately looked at the clock on the wall, which showed six o'clock.

"..."

"I just woke up and found that Aponiya was missing." Qianjie went to wake up the others, "Hurry up and look for Aponiya, where did she go!"

"…It should be outside the house."

Lin said suddenly.

"what?"

"The jealous person froze to death in the frost and snow." Lin turned his head expressionlessly and said, "If she is a new victim, then she could only have frozen to death outside the house."

"Then go outside quickly!"

The group immediately pushed open the door and rushed into the cold wind, and soon after, they found Aponya's body.

Her body was bound hands and feet, gagged, and kneeling in the snow in a posture of holy prayer.

She did not struggle before death, but just silently waited for the arrival of death and then said a final prayer for her companions.

"I've had enough! Come out! Who is it?"
