I, Henry, Jennifer, and Perrin formed a gang of four. So I have four votes. However, in this voting game, four votes don't have an advantage. But maybe it can still reverse the situation.
After that, Jennifer and I took a taxi and went to David's home. Besides, I seemed to find that besides us, people in the class also started to act.
"It seems that some people have the same idea as us," I said, looking at the several taxis following behind. David is the initiator of the voting and also the source of all curses.
From David's home, some valuable clues can definitely be found. Maybe even a way to escape this voting game. No wonder these people are coming.
"Boss, they also want to take advantage of us from behind," Jennifer said angrily, looking at the rear window.
"Let them be. Anyway, as long as a few of us can get out of the game. It seems that others have nothing to do with us." I said directly. After experiencing betrayal, I no longer have the intention of saving the entire class.
Soon, the taxi arrived at David's home. The taxi driver gave us a strange look, then took the money and hurriedly drove away. I followed Jennifer and got out of the car, looking at the two-story villa in the distance.
"David's family is very rich," Jennifer exclaimed. After he finished speaking, several more cars came one after another behind. A large group of people got out of them. Among them were Potter, Gao Ming, James, and Derek.
"Why are you here?" Jennifer frowned and scolded.
"Why, can't we come?" James looked at Jennifer with a rebellious gaze and a sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth. Jennifer snorted coldly but said nothing. After all, he couldn't afford to offend James now.
"Let's go," I said calmly.
"Frank, you are so cocky now. I heard that you even killed my brother Mars." James looked at me and said.
"It was just a bet. I didn't want to kill him." I gave James an indifferent look and then said.
"I don't care if it was a bet or a game. Anyway, you got rid of my brother. Just wait," James gave me a threatening look and then turned and left beside me.
James quickly knocked on David's door. After the door opened, David's stepmother came out, with a black face and scolded: "Who are you?"
"We are David's classmates." James hurriedly explained.
"I know you are David's classmates," James squeezed out a smiling face and said.
"I know you are David's classmates, but why are you here again?" David's stepmother looked at James and said.
"Besides us, who else came?" James couldn't help asking. From David's stepmother's mouth, it seemed that someone besides us had come here first.
"Don't worry about this. Anyway, don't come in." David's stepmother's face changed slightly and then she was about to close the door. But James was in a hurry at this time and quickly grabbed the door handle.
"What are you doing? I'll call the police like this." David's stepmother said in a panic.
"We just want to find something in David's room. Auntie, please be lenient." After saying that, James led several people and rushed indirectly. Several classmates didn't hesitate either. After all, it was a matter of life and death.
"You bunch of robbers!" David's stepmother wanted to stop them but was pushed away by James. Then a group of people rushed into David's room vigorously.
I also hurriedly followed Jennifer and rushed into the room. In David's room, James was roaring: "What's going on? Why is David's computer like this?"
In David's room, it is now in a mess, with smashed traces everywhere. His original computer has been smashed to pieces. Both the chassis and the display screen are all broken all over the floor. This made his face look very ugly.
Royal Road is the home of this novel. Visit there to read the original and support the author.
But I hurriedly looked for the bookshelf. After looking for a few minutes, I found that the David diary I saw last time had disappeared.
"It seems that someone is destroying the evidence. Didn't David's mother just say that besides us, there was a person who claimed to be David's classmate?" Gao Ming said.
"Right. Go and ask her. Maybe we can find out." James' eyes lit up and then he turned and left with the people around him. Only I and Jennifer were still standing here in the entire room.
"Boss, let's go too. There's nothing to see here." Jennifer turned and said. I didn't respond to him but silently lowered my head and started looking at the broken computer.
It doesn't matter if the computer chassis is broken. As long as the hard disk inside is still there. You can see the data in the computer. Soon I found the hard disk. But on the hard disk, there were already several huge gaps. This made me frown slightly.
Anyway, I still put the hard disk in my pocket. Maybe it can be repaired. It's good to find some clues. After finding the hard disk, I looked for it again. But then I didn't gain anything.
"Forget it. Let's go." I said to Jennifer. It was an unexpected gain to find the hard disk. I turned around and was about to leave when I suddenly saw the letters on the wall and my face changed suddenly.
"What's wrong? Boss." Jennifer asked when he saw me suddenly stop. I didn't waste words with him but walked into the room again. The letters on David's wall were still blood red. It looked extremely creepy.
And on the ceiling, there was some water accumulation. It seemed to be dripping constantly. I looked at the ceiling with some doubt, then pinched the water drop on my finger and smelled it.
I walked to the wall, then turned to face the front according to the direction of the wall. And I soon found something abnormal. The door of David's room was facing the subtitles on the wall. And behind the door, there was a mirror hanging on it. Looking at the reflected letters in the mirror. I smiled. I think I already know the truth.
Following Jennifer downstairs, on the first floor, David's stepmother roughly refused James' inquiries. And drove them all out.
"Get out one by one quickly, or I'll call the police right away. You bunch of robbers!" David's stepmother scolded. Pushing the classmates one by one. James and they looked very helpless and could only retreat one by one.
Soon, except for the two of us, there was no one else in the entire room.
Looking at me and Jennifer walking down the stairs slowly. David's stepmother said angrily: "Why don't you two get out quickly? Are you waiting for me to call the police?"
"As you like. You can call the police at will. I don't care. At most, it's trespassing. And you, but murder." I shrugged and said with a smile.
"What do you mean?" David's stepmother's face changed and said.
I walked down the stairs unhurriedly and then sat on the sofa and said: "You should understand what I mean. Stop pretending. Did you kill David?"
"Hehe, are you kidding? What evidence do you have?" David's stepmother looked at my face and said. And Jennifer beside was even more incredible. His eyes looked at David's stepmother, and his face was a little surprised.
"Evidence? If a person is misunderstood as a murderer, the first reaction should be, I didn't kill. It wasn't me. Instead of asking for evidence as soon as they open their mouth. What does this mean?" I sneered at her, leaned my body on the sofa, then supported my head with my arm, and looked at her lazily.
"Of course, it's not just that. I saw a line of letters in David's room. I believe you should know." I said to David's stepmother.
"So what? It's just a group of letters. REDRUM. What is this?" David's stepmother said.
"Of course not this. If David dared to write the correct letters, they would definitely be crossed out by you. So he deliberately left this line of letters. And left a hint." I said calmly.
"Hint? What hint?" David's stepmother asked.
"This line of letters 'REDRUM' corresponds to his door. And David deliberately left a mirror behind the door. When you open the door, you can only see this line of letters but not the mirror. Only when you walk into the room and close the door instantly can you see the correct letters in the mirror. And the letters seen in the mirror are upside down. That is to say.
The real letters of this line are not REDRUM. But 'MURDER'." I sneered.
After I finished speaking, David's stepmother's face became extremely pale. She collapsed on the sofa and murmured: "This, how is this possible."
"You should be clear about the meaning of 'MURDER', which is murder! And you are the murderer." I looked at David's stepmother's face and pursued vigorously.
David's stepmother was shocked by my words. She fled backward in panic, constantly shouting: "No, I didn't kill. No, I didn't."
But soon she calmed down again and sneered: "Even so, it can only prove that David was murdered. Why do you say it must be me who killed?"
"Do you still want to deny it? When we just arrived, you seemed to be dealing with something. Otherwise, your face wouldn't be so strange. And on David's ceiling, water drops are constantly dripping. What exactly did you hide on the ceiling? Or rather, whose body is it?" I sneered and said.
My words completely broke David's stepmother's psychological defense. She retreated backward desperately and her face had become extremely pale: "No, I didn't do it. I didn't want to kill them either. They forced me."
"Oh, it seems that you admit that you killed someone, and more than one. David is already dead. So the body should be another one. If I'm not wrong, it should be..." I said halfway, looking at David's stepmother grimly.
David's stepmother's spirit has completely collapsed. She knelt down directly and said: "Stop talking. I beg you to stop talking. I'll agree to whatever you want!"
"Hehe, what is this? Do you want to convict me just because of this?" David's stepmother laughed and asked. When she laughed, she was very beautiful, especially her plump chest trembled, making me unable to shift my gaze.
