"Ye Lai? Have you come over? " He Yuan asked a circle, and everyone shook their heads.
Just as He Yuan took out his mobile phone and prepared to call Ye Lai, frightened screams pierced the tranquility of the hotel. "Ah-the dead!"
Everyone looked at each other and subconsciously gathered together. Among them, people with a little more courage can't help but ask curiously: "Who died?" .
When he was idle, He Yuan said to the men and women holding a group behind him, "Let's go and have a look." After two steps, he glanced at the girl lying on the sofa and waved to her. "Guo Xu, you are with me, too."
Guo Xu sighed deeply. She is small and transparent in the company and doesn't like talking to people. She is also used to hiding in the corner and playing a shadow role in group activities. It happened that her immediate boss, He Yuanhe, was in charge of the mom's mentality. She felt that she was too unsociable and was not good for her workplace life, and every action was taken care of in every way.
Guo Xu followed the crowd. She deliberately lagged behind to avoid being stuffed with dog food by couples who were always bored in front.
"Baby, why are your hands so cold?" Han Muyang put Ann's hand in his pocket and shook hands with her.
Ann leaned on Han Muyang's shoulder, her voice soft and weak: "Muyang, I'm afraid."
"Hey, let's just stand at the door and don't go in." At Guo Xu Han Muyang calmed Ann's mood.
Guo Xu lowered her head and slid her fingers on the mobile phone screen, as if she was aware of other people's sight. Unconsciously, she lifted her feet, deviated from the route to be taken, bypassed the line of sight being inspected, and quickly got into the crowd.
The thick smell of blood got into his nostrils. He Yuan stopped, hesitated at the door for nearly half a minute, then put on the shoe cover and walked in slowly.
This is a simple and clean standard room. Having worked as a colleague for three years, He Yuan knew Ye Lai's temper and specially booked this room for her. At this time, his legs seemed to be filled with lead, but the distance of just a few meters exhausted all his strength. He watched the scene in horror, his hands shaking violently like spasms.
Ye Lai is lying on his back in bed. There is a ferocious wound on her neck, and the cut blood vessels are clearly visible. Her white pajamas are stained with blood.
He Yuan looks very pale. He clenched his fist and tried to suppress the nausea in his stomach: "Did you call the police?"
Guo Xu immediately reminded him: "There is no signal here."
Yes, the snow closed the mountain, and they were trapped in this hotel.

"Everybody go out, protect the scene and wait for the police." He Yuan urged everyone to go out, and at the same time grabbed Guo Xu's wrist and pulled her out. A girl who usually wants to hide in the corner like a shadow, but when she meets a murder, she looks like she has beaten chicken blood, and her eyes can't wait to grow at the murder scene.
Guo Xu didn't want to look back. Her eyes rested on Yelai's nails. Yelai liked nail art very much. On the way, she was still showing off her new beautiful nails with Akita.
At that time, Guo Xu was sitting behind Yelai. When she heard her words, Guo Xu gave her a look. This time she walked in a sweet girlish style, wearing a small diamond on her right thumb. At this time, the diamond on Ye Lai's thumb disappeared, and the nails of the index finger, middle finger and ring finger were deliberately cut off.
Guo Xu couldn't help frowning. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the line of sight of Han Muyang. She subconsciously lowered her head and shrank beside He Yuan, holding his skirt tightly with one hand, as if frightened.
"Don't look for the murderer?" Everyone settled down in the hall, and Qiu Tian looked at He Yuan. In the company, she has a good relationship with Ye Lai, but at this time, she is more worried that the murderer will commit another crime, rather than finding out the murderer and avenging her friends. "What if he kills again?"
He Yuan frowned and organized a group at the end of the year. This was a happy thing, but he was inexplicably trapped in the hotel. His colleagues who lived together day and night were also brutally killed. He has lived for more than 20 years and has never experienced such a cruel thing. But he is the backbone of this team. He must make up his mind and hesitate for a moment. He got up and walked to the front desk: "Is there monitoring?"
"Yes ... yes." The little girl at the front desk just turned 20, and someone died in the hotel. She turned pale with fear. She opened the drawer with trembling fingers and took out a bunch of keys and handed them to He Yuan. "This is the key to the control room. You go first. I'll try again and see if I can contact our boss. "
This three-story hotel has a total of five cameras, one in the corridor of each floor, one in the lobby and the other at the door.
Ye Lai's room is in the innermost room on the left side of the elevator on the third floor. She doesn't like noise. Moreover, there are few tourists near the Spring Festival, and Ye Lai is the only one on the third floor.
He Yuan watched the video of the night they checked in. No one had ever entered Yelai's room before the accident except the cleaning and service personnel.
He Yuan shook the mouse several times, but the screen was still black. He turned his head and turned his eyes to the security brother who came in together: "Was there a power outage last night?"
"When I took over in the morning, I heard from Xiao Liu that there was a power outage for nearly half an hour from last night 12 to 12: 30."
After the heavy snow closed the mountain, the lines here were unstable and the power would trip from time to time.
A group of them played games for nearly half a day yesterday to amuse themselves. After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms early to rest. No one noticed whether the electricity was turned off last night except the security guard on duty at night and the little girl at the front desk.
"Did the murderer take advantage of the power outage to enter the night room and kill the night?" Akita was so scared that she almost cried. She bit her lower lip and trembled.
"Don't talk nonsense." He Yuan suppressed a chill in his heart. He closed his eyes and relaxed. He said, "Let's get together and try not to be lonely." After that, he went over and picked up the girl hiding in the corner reading a novel. "Guo Xu, you follow me."

The snow is still falling, and the cold wind whistling outside the window is like a monster.
Guo Xu moved, and she always felt the wind blowing in through the window. Upon seeing this, He Yuan handed her a blanket. She unwrapped the blanket and lay lazily on the sofa like a cat. She narrowed her eyes slightly, eyes gently swept Han Muyang and Ann.
He Yuan noticed her little gesture and asked in a low voice, "What can I do for them?"
Guo Xu turned around and replied lightly: "Very loving."
Hmm? He Yuan looked at Guo Xu doubtfully. Guo Xu didn't seem to realize it. She slowly put her hand out of the blanket, peeled off a piece of toffee and stuffed it into her mouth. The rich smell of milk spread between her lips and teeth, and her locked eyebrows gradually spread. After a while, she continued, "Did the waiter ask you to clean the room where you stayed overnight?"
"Another waiter didn't ask. She worked late last night and is still resting. "
Guo Xu nodded thoughtfully. She held her chin in one hand and looked at He Yuan: "Should we do another investigation?"
He Yuan's face sank and he whispered, "Do you think the murderer is among us?"
Guo Xu shrugged, according to the current situation, the murderer was either a random murder or a premeditated murder. If it is premeditated murder, the murderer is likely to be any of them.
"Wait a minute." To tell the truth, He Yuan doesn't want to doubt any of them. "After talking with the attendant on duty last night, we will investigate. “
Guo Xu looked down and didn't speak again.
Until it was time to take over, Cai Wen, the waiter on duty last night, came over, and He Yuan and Guo Xu left directly together.
Xiaowen learned that Yelai had been killed. Her eyes were red and she was shaking all over. Then she uttered a voice: "Last night ... Sister Ye asked me to send her a bottle of red wine."
"Red wine?" After careful reflection, Guo Xu did see the leftover empty wine bottles in the bathroom, and there was a faint fragrance of wine. She asked, "Did she say anything when you were asked to deliver wine?"
"She said she couldn't sleep. She drank some wine and slept well. "
Ye Lai can't sleep, Akita knows. She also accompanied Ye Lai to the hospital on the rest day, and the doctor also prescribed sleeping pills for her, but the effect was not good.
At this time, Qiu Tian is like a grumpy lion. She pointed to Han Muyang and shouted, "It's all because of you that Ye Lai can't sleep."
"Me?" Han Muyang looked puzzled. "What does her insomnia have to do with me?"
"It's none of your business." Akita is quiet and seldom speaks loudly. At that time, her voice was hoarse. She stared at Han Muyang and Ann coldly. "It was you men and women who hurt her."
Hmm? Interesting.
Guo Xu quietly walked into the middle of the crowd, and her eyes lit up. Obviously, she was very interested in the dog blood plot of the love triangle.
Ann was humiliated by someone pointing at her nose. She stood up from Han Muyang's arms, raised her arm and slapped Qiu Tianyi. Akita firmly clamped her wrist and gnashed her teeth and growled, "What? I dare do it. Or is it a sense of accomplishment to be a mistress? "
"You ..." A series of examining eyes shot at Ann like flames. She blushed with embarrassment and gnashed her teeth. "You are the hostess."
Say that finish, she hid her face in her hands and threw herself into Han Muyang's arms, much like a wronged kitten.
Han Muyang holding Ann in one hand. He stared straight at Akita and said coldly, "What's the matter with you?"
"You cheated on her during the wedding and dumped her leaves. She lost sleep."
Hearing this, the Han Muyang smiled faintly. "There is no evidence. In this case, can I still suspect that she is paranoid? "
Oh, it seems that death tells no tales.
Guo Xuxiao, sure enough, living people are much more interesting than e-books.

He Yuan put the cigarette under his nose and smelled it. The faint smell of tobacco flooded into his nose, and his thoughts gradually became clear. He looked at Guo Xu thoughtfully and said, "How's the story?"
"Very interesting." Guo Xu put his hand on his face, warm warm, and then cocked his head and looked at He Yuan. "Do men like to lie?"
"Little girl, you can't kill all men with such a stick."
Guo Xu snorted in a low voice and changed the subject: "Who do you think is the most suspect among us?"
He Yuan fingered the cigarette case and asked thoughtfully, "Do you have any suspects?"
Guo Xu looked around and said in a low voice, "Don't you think Han Muyang and An An are strange?"
He Yuan raised his eyes and looked at Guo Xu, puzzled: "Is it strange?"
"They are so caring, as if they were doing it for others." Everyone knows that the company's teahouse is monitored, but Han Muyang and An An are still close in the teahouse.
After Guo Xu's reminder, He Yuan realized that the night station was opposite the teahouse. As long as she looked up, everything in the teahouse would be clear at a glance.
"How sure are you?" After all, we are colleagues who live together day and night. He Yuan doesn't want things to be impossible to end.
Guo Xu stared at He Yuan unblinkingly. She doesn't know whether men's hesitation is good or bad, but in this case, Guo Xu thinks He Yuan must be very bold, so she suggests, "Why don't we ask them their alibi separately last night?"
He Yuan hesitated for a moment. He picked up his down jacket, went outside to smoke a cigarette, walked to Guo Xu cold, took out a coffee toffee from his pocket and tentatively said, "Come with me?"
Guo Xu blinked. If she was seduced by a candy, wouldn't it look spineless? However, she is more curious about Han Muyang's explanation than her backbone.
Han Muyang is reading a book, lying on Han Muyang's lap, holding the sofa cushion in his arms, and seems to be asleep. He Yuan hesitated. Guo Xu poked his finger on his back and motioned for him to hurry up. He Yuan sighed helplessly at the bottom of my heart. How can this girl be so concerned about this matter as if she had beaten chicken blood?
He Yuan bent his finger, tapped the small coffee table next to Han Muyang and whispered, "Is it convenient to talk alone?"
"Huh?" Han Muyang looked away from the book and looked at He Yuan and Guo Xu in confusion. The next second, he seemed to remember something, so he put down his book, cocked his head, leaned down and kissed Ann's forehead, and whispered, "Good boy, wake up first."
Guo Xu shook her shoulders and got goose bumps all over. She is too greasy. She cocked her head and her eyes rested on the book that Han Muyang was reading. This is a British art appreciation book.
No wonder, every time she reads a novel on her mobile phone, it will attract Han Muyang's scrutiny. It turned out that she was abandoning her.
If Han Muyang knew that she still preferred forensic literature, she would despise her even more.
However, in this world, everyone has his own ideas. Guo Xu is aboveboard and not afraid of being despised by him.

"Ann and I are very loving. Young and loving couples together will naturally cherish every second. " Han Muyang also happily spit out a milky white smoke turn. "However, we have no interest in making videos, otherwise we can still keep it as an alibi."
Guo Xu pie pie, this man is really shameless.
He Yuan naturally didn't want to ask more questions, so he took Guo Xu's sleeve and took two steps to the side. He coughed gently and explained to the little girl, "This is normal between men and women."
Guo Xu glanced at He Yuan's red ear tip. This man is really thin-skinned, and he is not ashamed. He is very shy.
She stood up and said, "Let's ask Ann again."
Less than two minutes later, Han Muyang brought Ann a cup of hot milk from nowhere. Guo Xu felt a little sour. She held her chest in her hands to comfort herself.
Ann has a milk cup in her hand and a smile on her lips. Women in love are easily satisfied.
However, doesn't Guo Xu's eyebrows mean that a woman nourished by love should have a red face? However, Ann's face is pale and her eyes are black and blue. Seeing Guo Xu staring at her face all the time, An An lowered his head and showed a shy expression: "I didn't have a good rest last night."
This ..... How to talk!
Guo Xu crustily skin of head: "Did you notice what time it was when you were asleep?"
"About 12 o'clock ... I looked at my phone."
"Where was Han Muyang at that time?"
"He is ..." Ann hesitated for a moment, and she lowered her eyes to avoid Guo Xu's eyes. "Of course he's by my side."
"Oh?" Guo Xu gave her a thoughtful look, raised his arm and touched He Yuan beside her with his elbow. He Yuan winked at her and conveyed the message. Two people took the collected evidence and sat down in a corner far away from the crowd.
Guo Xu opened her notebook and scanned it in detail. She and He Yuan are both amateurs. Even if the messy clues are unified, they still feel foggy. She closed her notebook and looked up and asked He Yuan, "Are you sure whether the power outage was man-made or accidental?"
He Yuan shook his head. He leaned back wearily, his eyes rested on Han Muyang and Akita, and he sighed, "This is not a good night."
Guo Xu didn't care. On the contrary, she looked forward to the new development of the story tonight.
He Yuan originally wanted to get everyone together and even borrowed a tatami mattress from the waiter, but everyone was more afraid of privacy being exposed than the fear of death.
After confirming that everyone went back to their rooms to rest, He Yuan made a cup of strong tea and slowly climbed to the third floor to prepare for Ye Lai's vigil. As soon as he entered the third floor, Guo Xu's voice came. Chewing gum, she glanced at He Yuan's teacup and said gloomily, "Uncle, you are too old to stay up all night drinking strong tea."
Uncle Guo Xu's voice made He Yuan very uneasy. His eyes twitched, and his voice could not hide his sadness: "I am five years older than you."
Guo Xu blinked and ignored He Yuan's answer. She handed him the pillow in her arms, which was a sign of respect for the old man. "Why don't you lean on it for a while?"
In order to prove that he was young enough to stay up late, He Yuan immediately refused: "No, I can afford it."
"Really stubborn."

Just after 2 o'clock in the morning, He Yuan fell asleep in a daze. He didn't sleep well. There was the sound of kicking the door. He was so scared that he almost fell off the chair.
After listening to this, Guo Xu turned off his mobile phone, held his breath for a while, turned to He Yuan, who was still in a daze, and said, "Someone is arguing downstairs. It sounds like Akita and An An."
"The two of them?" He Yuan suddenly woke up. He stood up and said, "Come on, let's go and have a look."
Haven't close to, there was a cry, I saw Ann nestled in Han Muyang's arms, crying pear flower take rain.
Women fight really hard. If they don't agree, they will pull their hair, slap and scratch each other's faces. ...
Guo Xu subconsciously stopped, she didn't want to be affected by her madness in an instant. Her little body can't stand it.
He Yuan saw Akita's torn hair and dark red handprints on his cheeks, and suddenly he had a headache: "Why ... did you fight again?"
"It's her ..." Ann sobbed, speechless. "It's her ... who saw ... Muyang for the first time."
"I bah." Akita is short of breath, and there is no elegance in the past. She vomited in Ann's direction and gnashed her teeth. "Will I have a crush on him?" ! "
He Yuan rubbed his eyebrows. He turned his eyes to the hero of the story: "Han Muyang, what's the matter?"
"I ..." Han Muyang looked down at the people in peace and arms. She closed her eyes and leaned against his chest, sobbing as if she had been greatly wronged. He patted her on the back, hesitated and told the truth. "I contacted Qiu Tian first and wanted to ask her about Ye Lai."
One o'clock in the morning? This man really doesn't have much.
He Yuan followed the trend: "So, did you and Ye come?"
Han Muyang nodded, one of the default Qiu Tian complaints before.
Oh, love triangle.
Guo Xu moved quietly and approached Heyuan. As the saying goes, she leans against a big tree to enjoy the cool. She hid behind a tall man with long legs. Even if she was rude, she was not afraid of being beaten.
"So you break up peacefully or have a third party come in? “
Guo Xu's words were straightforward and sharp, and Han Muyang couldn't help being one leng. To tell the truth, in his mind, Guo Xu is like a timid and obedient kitten. He forgets that cats will bite if they are forced to be fierce.
Seems to be crying enough, in the blurred with a pair of eyes like peaches, stick out your tongue like a kitten near Han Muyang's neck, this vivid picture, Guo Xu stare big eyes, she really thinks that if she is lying in bed at this time, she can start a live broadcast of a double movement at any time.
Han Muyang seems a little embarrassed. He cocked his head to avoid Ann's mouth and whispered, "Be good, don't make trouble."
Turned a deaf ear, persistently chasing Han Muyang's neck. Han Muyang face a heavy. He glanced at He Yuan and said, "Sorry, we'll talk later."
After Han Muyang and An An left, He Yuan calmed Akita's mood and sent people back to their rooms. When they were going to invite Guo Xu to the third floor, she saw a pair of beautiful eyes flashing: "You are not curious, what will they say?"
He Yuan has a dark face and has no interest in listening to people.
Seeing his silence, Guo Xu continued: "Or do you think they will make a big move?"
He Yuan gently coughed awkwardly: "Guo Xu, are you ashamed of being a girl?"
Guo Xu shook his body and bumped his shoulder on He Yuan, laughing like a kitten: "We are all adults."
After closing the door, Han Muyang directly pushed Ann to the sofa. He leaned down, moved closer to her and said coldly, "Did you kill her?" (Novel title: Ruan Xia, author of Snow Falling and Soul Flying)
