The next morning, the sun was scorching, but the small garden of the mental hospital was protected by the trees, so it was very refreshing.
At that moment, Zhao Yu squatted next to a cluster of flowers, pretending to stare at the bright flowers, while he secretly looked at Liu Cheng, who was three meters away from him.
Zhao Yu was stubborn. Even though he had planned to return without any results the previous night, he still wanted to try again after the sun rose.
Zhao Yu did not know why, but he felt that, even though Liu Cheng had not bothered to talk to him for the past nine days, he could feel that he had attracted Liu Cheng's attention.
This was because, for the past few days, Liu Cheng had been casting curious glances at him. This had never happened in the first few days.
At that moment, Liu Cheng was squatting in front of a peony flower, looking down at something.
Like before, Liu Cheng was looking at it seriously, and he would mumble something from time to time, as if he was talking to the flower.
Zhao Yu had tried to eavesdrop, but Liu Cheng did not make a sound, so there was no way to know what he was talking about.
In order to attract Liu Cheng's attention, Zhao Yu copied him and moved his lips to the flower, looking like a mental patient. But Liu Cheng still did not care about him.
Time ticked by, and in the blink of an eye, it was almost noon. Not long after, a nurse would come over to take Liu Cheng to lunch.
At that time, Zhao Yu felt that he was almost out of energy. It seemed that Liu Cheng's inner world was completely sealed, and there was no way to open it.
It was probably impossible to get his testimony from that year from his mouth.
Miao Ying was right. If he continued like this, it would be pointless.
So … Zhao Yu stood up in disappointment, patted the dirt off his knees, and prepared to leave.
As he had squatted for too long, Zhao Yu felt that the blood in his legs was not flowing smoothly, and his feet were numb. He could only stand there and slowly recover.
Unexpectedly, just as he was slowing down, a thought suddenly flew into his mind.
That's right!
Am I not stupid?
Over the past nine days, as the system could not open a hexagram, Zhao Yu had not paid much attention to it. Now, he realized that he had a lip-reading device.
With this magical device, even if you did not speak, I would know what you were saying.
Thinking about this, Zhao Yu ignored the numbness in his legs and quickly squatted down again. He took out a lip-reading device and used it on Liu Cheng.
It was time to witness a miracle. When the lip-reading device was activated, the screen in Zhao Yu's brain suddenly showed a bunch of garbled words!
What the f * ck …
Zhao Yu was so surprised that he wanted to curse out loud. It seemed that the world of a psychopath was indeed incomprehensible. Even magical props could not be deciphered.
What's the matter? What the other party said was completely inhuman. What else could you say?
This time, Zhao Yu was in complete despair. Not only was he in despair, but he was also a little irritated. He felt that a great detective like him had been humiliated by a mental patient!
It was unknown whether it was because of the anger or the humiliation.
At that moment, Zhao Yu's mind heated up, and he threw away his years of self-restraint to the back of his mind. He extended his hand and picked up a stone from under the bushes, then raised his hand and aimed at Liu Cheng, ready to hit him!
I …
I … I …
However, Zhao Yu was no longer the same as before. After he lifted the stone, he calmed down and quickly retracted his hand. He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
This … What's going on?
Zhao Yu shuddered. Looking at the stone in his hand, he could not help but feel scared.
I … Am I not a great detective?
Why did I suddenly become the little ruffian from before?
Why would I subconsciously use such a despicable method?
Am I … It's hard to change my spots?
Oh …
Zhao Yu took a deep breath and came back to his senses. It seemed that after staying in the mental hospital for so many days, he had been affected to a certain extent. This could not continue …
In the end, at this critical juncture, something even more bizarre happened.
Liu Cheng, who had been staring at the flowers from afar, suddenly turned around and stared at Zhao Yu. He said, "You … You finally realized? I … I thought only I could hear it! "
Swoosh …
At that moment, Zhao Yu felt like he was first frozen, then roasted.
This …
The next second, Zhao Yu saw clearly that Liu Cheng's eyes had fallen on the stone in his hand.
"You …" Liu Cheng asked timidly, "Are you going to throw it away?"
"I …" As it happened too suddenly, Zhao Yu was dumbfounded. He held the stone awkwardly, not knowing what to do.
"I advise you not to be impulsive …" Liu Cheng said seriously. "At first, I wanted to throw it away just like you, but …"
"Look …" Liu Cheng pointed at the garden. "There are so many of his companions here! If you throw one away, they will take revenge on you! "
"I …" Zhao Yu felt like he was about to turn into ashes.
Before this, he had come up with countless lines, but now that Liu Cheng was talking to him, he was speechless.
However, Zhao Yu was a quick-witted detective. Although Liu Cheng's words seemed nonsensical, there was still a hint.
Zhao Yu guessed that the reason why Liu Cheng was talking to him was because of the stone in his hand.
Stone …
Zhao Yu took a look. In the small garden, there were some ornamental stones placed under the flowers. Each stone was the size of a goose egg and had different colors. They looked beautiful.
Could … Could it be …
Zhao Yu suddenly understood. No wonder he couldn't figure it out for nine days! It turned out that Liu Cheng wasn't paying attention to the bright flowers, but the stones under the flowers!
This …
"You'd better put it down!" At this time, Liu Cheng advised seriously, "After some time, you will know that it is our good friend!
"They know everything, and they can tell you stories. They can even guess riddles …"
"…" Zhao Yu creased his eyebrows. His mind was racing. How should he continue?
Got it!
Zhao Yu was quick-witted. His eyes lit up and he suddenly had an idea. He quickly cleared his throat and pointed at the stone in his hand. "It's very annoying. It doesn't believe me, so I'm going to throw it away!"
"It … doesn't believe you?" Liu Cheng repeated. He looked a little numb.
"Yeah!" Zhao Yu quickly said. "I told it that I saw a murderer, but it didn't believe me!"
"Murderer!?" Liu Cheng repeated. His expression was wooden, but there was a hint of curiosity in it.
"Yeah!" Zhao Yu made up his mind and said heavily, "I told it that I had seen a murderer kill a woman in the women's restroom! I saw it very clearly, but it … "Zhao Yu pointed at the stone and said angrily," It didn't believe me!
It insisted that it wasn't me who saw the murderer, but you … "
As he spoke, Zhao Yu pointed his finger at Liu Cheng. As he was not confident, his wrist kept shaking.
"…"
Then, Liu Cheng raised his eyebrows. He seemed to be thinking about something. After thinking for a few seconds, he said, "Murderer, I saw it!? Women's toilet, yes … It was … It was the murder in the women's toilet. The person who was killed was my nurse … "
Wow!
Zhao Yu was very excited, but he still loosened his grip and said, "That's impossible. You must have forgotten what the murderer looked like, right?"
"I … I remember!" Liu Cheng said with his eyes wide open.
That's great!
Zhao Yu quickly took out Nong Zhi's photo and showed it to Liu Cheng. He asked, "Look, is it this person?!"
Liu Cheng looked at the photo carefully, then did something that shocked Zhao Yu.
He shook his head and said with certainty, "No, it's not this person!!!"
