Chapter 300 Going Up 8
”Just what the hell had happened that it turned into a situation like this,” Feng Bujue mumbled to himself in the dark ”At this moment, I should be carried on the back of h… Looks like a man who is as impressive as ht, will be as bright and as eye catching as fireflies on the darkest night…
”The dark yet deep gaze, the five o'clock shadow, the Godlike skill, they have all worked against me and have betrayedof state their hearing, and due to the fact that they were inside an enclosed space, which allowed sound to travel very far very easily, Brother Jue's words rode on the winds and entered the ears of his other three teale word
”This really is the first time in my life… that I have met such a shameless character” Autu of the Feng Bujue
”But he is still able to talk about nonsense like that even in this kind of situation…” Weighty Words was ae and ability to keep calm and cool in this kind of situation He added, ”I suppose you can consider it a manifestation of his incredibly stable and powerful mental institution”
”This man is so incredibly hard to read…” Ambitionist said and could not help but to feel the shi+ver go through his body, and he touched his glasses ”He is the type of opponent that I would not like to ardless of the circuree ine what kind of situation will happen if there is a character like that in the group during the course of a Killing Gaists were of the sahty Words added, ”If he is not on our side but athat is not good to be handle… Have you noticed this? Be it planning or putting it into action,has done appeared to be senseless and pointless on the surface, but in actuality, they carried their own i that he has done so far has proved very useful to a certain degree in our journey Of course… that is excluding his… e shall say it… the unique sense of hu”
”A conspiracist uses strange stratage tactics; a tactician borrows the state of the situation to tip the scale to his side,” Afully ”The former is normally a member of the malicious sort Normally, they are too weak, so they use such dirty tactics to e to their side Even if they succeed, the effect will only last a moment because there are too ured out easily Their forms of tactics can be undone quite easily
”The latter is the real king on the battlefield He follows the wind of the battlefield, and his stratagen to be seen on the surface He is the king of strategists and can rarely be stopped Nor, intellectual players like ourselves should strive to follow the path of the latter, but Brother Feng, he…”
”He see further and further down the path of evil,” Auturet in his sentence
”Those who can corand conspiracies are very clever, and those who can come up with tactics are impressive, but if there is sole one of his conspiracies will succeed, then he can be considered a God,” Adoist ould place his strategies inside a box and have his generals open the on the battlefield to prove that he could foresee the future from behind the battlefield[1],” Autumn Zither mocked
The three discussed Brother Jue behind his back This was because they were all squatting around the edge of the circular hole As long as they kept their voices down and kept their faces looking down, their voices would not travel so far Therefore, Feng Bujue was not privy to a single word that was said by this bunch Of course, even if Brother Jue overheard the, he would feel even prouder because of it
About tenBujue slowly and without any nervousness returned to the side of his teammates Froood
”Looks like you co,” Autuhed ”Actually, we should be thankful that Brother Feng ed to prove that there is no source of danger on this level for now”
”Then, the four of us should split into two groups and conduct a h search of this floor We should be able to find some cl…”
Before A Bujue cut hi news ”I found a dead body down that direction”
He pointed into the darkness This state splashed down on his teammates' heads The atmosphere instantly dropped down to subzero teroup stayed silent, not sure what to say Feng Bujue then continued, ”To be precise, I found a rather well-preserved crime scene”
The other three were still silent They wished for hihts
”And then…” As they expected, Feng Bujue was still not done
”From that direction…” He pointed to the other side, ”I found the dead bodies of the killers”
”Killers?” Autumn Zither repeated with shock ”There is an 's' to killer? There's more than one of theation of that crime scene, I deduced that there were four culprits in total orked together,” Feng Bujue said
”And all four murderers have been found dead near the crime scene?” Ambitionist asked
”No, only two of the two have escaped up to the fourth floor”
”Hold on a second, you have found the path that leads up to the fourth floor?” Weighty Words asked
”Yes, it is just over there along the way There is a spiral staircase that leads upward to the upper floor” Feng Bujue pointed to a third area ”Thankfully, when the other tho survived the murderers escaped, they left behind clear traces, so it was very easy to discern It was unwise to give chase like that, so I decided to return to share all the information I'd collected first”
After he was done, his teammates sank into yet another stretched silence After oneBujue broke the silence and said, ”Fine, now that you have gained a cursory understanding of the situation, come withto chronological order”
The 'chronological order' that he mentioned was key, and the other three understood what heBujue had found these three locations ht not be the order that he had described them But after his own observation, he cleaned up a ti to follow the sequence of 'first crime scene, second crime scene, and the path that leads to the fourth floor' The three followed Feng Bujue all the way to the one of the corners of the third floor When they were halfway there, they were assailed by this awful stench Naturally, it was the scent of bloated bodies and decay It did not take long for theht of the flashlight
The victim was… a witch She wore a thick, black dress made of cotton, and the cape she had on was tattered, dirty, and siant hooked nose in thepus on the tip of his nose and her chin Her thick lines of wrinkles were like scars, and her eyes bulged even in death How did that description and appearance qualify the victim as a witch? How else could the witch's hat, a broom, and an apple that had fallen or been placed around the dead body be explained?
The hat was black in color with a high top and wide brim; the broom ooden, the one seen ridden by Mr Potter; and the apple was bright red and juicy, like it had just been plucked fresh froive you a brief explanation There are two fatal wounds in total,” Feng Bujue explained as he squatted down next to the body He continued with his explanation next to the smelly dead body like it posed no pressure to the man at all ”And the tounds are quite easy to discover”
He extended his flashlight and focused the light at the top of the witch's head Under the light, one could see that the witch had been scalped The brain round, and the brain that should be inside the skull was nowhere to be seen
”The first wound is on the head itself Soht along her hairline,” Feng Bujue said ”Regarding the actual location of thebrain… you will understand it later”
The three tea Bujue's seely casual explanation of the victih a lot and garnered respect from his tea Bujue lowered the flashlight, and the light moved doith it to shi+ne on the witch's torso The witch's chest had been split open The rib bones were pried open froans were all exposed to open air
”The heart and the gall bladder have been harvested” Feng Bujue pointed out ”There are varying degrees of daans, but at least they still remain inside the body”
”Then… how did you make out that… there are four murderers in total?” Autumn Zither asked
”Oh, the hint for that is quite obvious” Feng Bujue stood up ”First, it is undeniable that she is a witch”
As he stated that fact, he pulled up the flashlight and shone it at the wall that o meters away from the dead body At that moment, the three teammates showed a look of surprise because there was a bloody sentence that was left on the wall This sentence ritten in English, and the system provided the translation
It read: ”There's no place like ho Bujue showed thehty Words understood it already, but the other tere still quite confused
”Indeed, this is Dorothy's line froht at the feet of the old witch again ”Look, she is not wearing any shoes I count that as circu me…” Autumn Zither and Ambitionist finally had an idea who the 'fourto were
”Yes, this puzzle is so easy, it is like a joke” Feng Bujue shone the light on the body and continued to explain ”It is clear that the four ganged up on the witch The lion tore open her torso and took away the 'courage'; the tinman took her 'heart' and then used his axe to spilt the witch's skull open so that the scarecrow can have the 'brain' As for Dorothy, I believe she got aith the witch's shoes”
He used a very light tone to explain this situation, and he coupled it with the sentence that was left on the wall
”The person rote this on the wall of the crime scene is most definitely an idiot who did enius” He pouted his lips as he shook his head before leveling an inquisitive gaze at his teauys think?'
”My thought is… aren't you a bit too cal his hair out ”When I said, 'you have got to be kidding me', I meant this is such a defilement of someone's childhoodBujue shrugged ”Unfortunately, I have nothing but scorn for children's literature, even though personally I have perused quite a number of them myself…”
”Artists are all indeed a bit special…” A the focus back to thethis bloody sentence… I believe there are two possibilities
”First, the killer has nothing to do with the group of four from the Wizard of Oz, and the sentence was purposely left here by the real culprit toit is really Dorothy's team that murdered this witch… then this sentence was quite possibly placed here by the system and not written by anyone”
”H Bujue nodded before he shone the flashlight at the carcass again ”Okay, let us ht, now that we do not need to preserve the cri that we can Perhaps theyBujue, the other three all took one object for theht in his hand, so he chose the sestion, Autumn Zither took the broo Bujue said that Autuhty Words was left with the witch's hat
