Chapter 241: Retrograde 26┃ Retrograde in both directions.


Regarding Lu Heng's death, everyone did not rush to report to the official, but first checked Lu Heng's package.
Back then, Xi Shengnan's package contained flawed jade jewelry. It is hard to say what Lu Heng would find in his package.
Most of the packages contained daily necessities, but a strange ebony box with a large palm caught everyone's attention.
Qin Ci used a cloth towel to pad and opened this strange ebony box with some small pills-like things inside. Qin Ci sniffed lightly: "It should be throat lozenges."
"In other words, there is no secret in Lu Heng's package?" Cao Youning's eyes flashed with panic. This is the second death he has experienced in this world, and the two who died were very close to him. friend.
"Looking at the appearance of this box, it looks like a pill box. There are two similar boxes in the medicine box I wrapped," Qin Ci said, shaking the ebony box in his ear. "It sounds nothing unusual, but I always I think my pill box has a larger capacity, although they look about the same on the outside."
Mu Yiran took the ebony box and carefully observed the side and bottom of the box. He quickly found a small hidden drawer. Open the spring inside, and the small drawer can be pulled out.
"This is too mysterious, I suspect that Lu Heng can't open this small drawer..." Before Cao Youning finished speaking, she watched in amazement as Mu Yiran took out a stack of paper from the drawer.
"Is it that prescription?" Mu Yiran showed Qin Ci the piece of paper.
Qin Ci wanted to nod his head to be sure, but in order to be safe, he took the medical book and placed the paper on the torn page, the traces of the torn paper overlapped closely.
Everyone was stunned, never expected that the formula of "Poisonous Incense" would be secretly torn off by Lu Heng and hidden.
Qin Ci sniffed the smell in the small drawer in the medicine box again, his expression sank, and looked at Du Lingyu: "Xiao Du, are you smelling this smell..."
Du Lingyu nodded with difficulty: "It's the smell. Sister Xi had that smell on her body when she died. Now Lu Heng's body... also has this smell. The smell in this drawer is heavier, but because it was put in an ebony box. Inside, so the taste is cleverly separated by the aroma of ebony, and it is difficult to smell. It is as if the poison was put in the chili sauce, and the taste was also separated by the strong taste of the chili sauce."
"I don't believe it. I don't believe that Lu Heng will hide these poisons privately. I don't believe that Lu Heng will commit suicide by taking these poisons, let alone that Lu Heng will poison Sister Xi! Sister Xi can be said to be the most important person to Lu Heng." Mai Peng said intermittently. Saying these words.
"Mai Peng, your face is very ugly." Du Lingyu was a little worried.
"I have a terrible headache. It's been like this since I woke up," Mai Peng scratched his messy hair, "I still don't believe that Lu Heng will hide the poison from us! Maybe all this was done by a person we can't see. In the end we will all be poisoned by this person."
"No, there are probably so many poisons," Qin Ci answered Mai Peng's words. At this time, he was slowly shifting his gaze from the formula to Mai Peng's face, "I already counted all of us yesterday. Spice goods, these goods and our total goods are less than part of the shipment, and these few spices are precisely the ingredients for this poisonous fragrance."
"what do you mean……"
"There is no need to have too many poison formulas. If the part of the ingredients that we have few are assembled together, it will at most be filled with the small drawer of the medicine box." Qin Ci looked at everyone, "In other words, the drawer is all the poison. In the hot sauce that poisoned Xi Shengnan, there was a small portion, while Lu Heng ate a large portion of the rest last night."
Luo Yu was also obviously confused by this sudden series of situations: "Are these poisons matched by another person, and then this person killed Lu Heng and Xi Shengnan with these poisons."
"If this is the case, why not kill these two people at once, but divide them into two?" Wei Dong said, "If two people are poisoned at once, the success rate will be greater."
Zhu Haowen: "There is also a premise. This imaginary murderer needs to master the habits of all of us, at least understand the tastes of each of us, before he can accurately let Xi Shengnan be poisoned by eating hot sauce, and this person has the ability to make Lu Heng sat alone at the table late at night and calmly drank the poison."
Hearing the words "drink", Du Lingyu discovered that there was a water cup next to the wooden table where Lu Heng's body was lying on his stomach. It was the water cup that everyone used to use, but simply assigned the owners according to the pattern above.
The door of the house was gently pushed open, and a burst of bright warm light entered the room, and the lighter poked his head in: "Guest officials, do you need help?"
Mu Yiran looked at the lamplighter: "We have dead people who need to be buried."
"Okay, I'll call for help." The lamplighter left politely after saying this.
Now is the time to light up, which is the zero point that Mu Yiran assumed at the beginning. At this time, there is bright warm light everywhere, as if someone who makes chicken soup whispered to you: Today is another brand new day.
Du Lingyu frowned and sniffed his sleeves, then his wrists, and looked at the bright corridor outside the door, with an urge to escape.
She subconsciously looked for the shadow of Ke Xun in the crowd, inexplicably, this person gave her the greatest sense of security.
Ke Xun seemed to be talking to Mai Peng, it seemed to be about "supporting the coffin".
"Kexun." Du Lingyu called to the crowd in the crowd.
Ke Xun raised his eyes, and in Du Lingyu's eyes, there seemed to be light on his face.
Du Lingyu said: "I have some ideas, but I don't know if they are useful."
Ke Xun's tall man walked out from the crowd: "Xiao Du, what did you think of?"
Du Lingyu walked out of the house, speeded up a few steps to look at the corridor on the left and the stairs at the end of the corridor: "I had hallucinations just now, and Lu Heng died. He died lying on the table like this, the house at that time. There were only two of me and Sister Xi. I was scared at the time, so I ran out of the room and ran down the stairs along the corridor on the left... I seemed to be going to verify something with someone."
Ke Xun didn't know what to say for a while, only felt that Du Lingyu's hallucinations were extraordinarily strange: "You seem to have memories of things in another timeline, but these memories appear occasionally."
"You mean, my hallucination just now came from another timeline?" Du Lingyu propped his head from the corridor railing to look at the section of stairs below. "It seemed that I was going to meet a woman, but the memory behind was completely blurred. ...Sorry, I can only think of so much, and I don't know if it's useful."
"If I remember correctly, every time you have hallucinations just after lighting the lights." Ke Xun looked at the vertical lines on the wall of the corridor. The seven lines remained unchanged, still profound and determined, "Or maybe, It is the death event that aroused certain points in your memory. Think about it carefully, every death event is discovered after everyone wakes up-strangely, why don't the rest of us have hallucinations like you? In the real world, do you have some psychic physique?"
"Shao Ling also asked me this question." Du Lingyu seemed to have not completely recovered from the nervousness. At this time, she stood with her back against the wall in a self-protective gesture: "It's a pity that I am in the real world. Very ordinary, it can be said that it is completely insulated from those gods and strange things."
"The illusion you just mentioned contained the scene of Lu Heng dying, and there was Xi Shengnan next to it. This reminded me of the photo last night," Ke Xun carefully recalled Mu Yiran's explanation of those photos last night. The picture was taken 16 hours later, and I guessed it was about 18:30. At that time, a man was sitting on the bed alone, while Xi Shengnan was lying not far away."
"Do you mean that the man is Lu Heng?" Du Lingyu carefully recalled the content of the photo. "Sister Xi's position was already at the bottom of the photo. If I was also on the photo, that photo You can’t photograph me from the angle of the camera.

Du Lingyu actually calmly said this bold conjecture, making Ke Xun unconsciously admire this seemingly weak girl.
"If this is the case, I don't understand why there are only three of us left in the room. It was at night and there was no reason for others to be outside..." Du Lingyu seemed to have thought of something, but couldn't say it anyway. Suddenly, his eyes fixedly looked at Ke Xun: "I don't know why, Ke Xun, among all the members, I trust you the most, even surpassing my old friends in the photography circle for many years."
Ke Xun saw full sincerity in Du Lingyu's eyes, and there was a trace of... something similar to regret.
"Especially when I saw these 7 lines, the feeling was very strong," Du Lingyu continued. "For some reason, I think your decision is correct, and it is a destructive move forward. There is no compromise or hesitation."
Du Lingyu wiped his eyes: "I don't know why these strange feelings were born, and I also said these feelings in front of you, as if these words were what I wanted to say to you. But it seems like I never have a chance to say it."
Ke Xun heard some clues from Du Lingyu's words, but her later inexplicable and perceptual language made herself unable to distinguish the direction. Ke Xun slowly approached Du Lingyu and patted the other person on the shoulder: "Go to the funeral for Lu Heng in a while, do you have the courage to go to that window?"
Du Lingyu nodded without hesitation: "I will definitely go. Although I am a little scared after thinking about it, I want to figure out what is going on. Even if I see something more terrifying there, I think that It should be closer to the truth."
"Okay," Ke Xun faced the brave Du Lingyu, without knowing what to say for a while, "we will all be with you."
"That's the sentence!" Du Lingyu yelled suddenly in confusion, "I remember you said the same thing: We will accompany you! All of us are united to take this step, although this step may be a step backward, but This step backward is to move forward longer! Although this step backward may be an abyss, but in return it is eternal light!"
Du Lingyu said these words word by word, tears flickering in his eyes.
Ke Xun was dumbfounded for a long time: "I can tell you responsibly, I can't say these words even if I'm killed..." Ke Xun scratched his head and asked, "Are you sure it was not Shao Ling who said this..." "
"That's what you said! I was crying, and many people were crying." Du Lingyu couldn't help crying again, "I can't remember the following things, but I always feel like a deserter..."
Perhaps Du Lingyu’s voice was a bit high just now, and some of his companions came to the door one after another. Even Mu Yiran came out, holding a piece of paper in his hand, and drew large and small circles on the paper. Divided by dividing lines of various angles.
Mu Yiran looked at Ke Xun: "Perhaps there is always only one timeline, but it has been dislocated and used in sections. Perhaps there is no distinction between retrograde and forward travel, just like when we are driving on a highway and facing another lane. When moving vehicles, because of the different directions, they always think that the other party is going backwards."
Ke Xun: "Can you say something today that I can understand..."
Mai Peng: "I want to make the same request..."
Mu Yiran said to Mai Peng: "According to the extent of your cold now, I think your cold will be completely cured soon, as if it had never happened.-If this thing really happens, then so too. It proved my idea in disguise."
