Chapter 570: A sudden turn of events(2/3)
house.”
Bai Qiyun thought of meeting Ying who went to the toilet early the next morning after landing on the island.
"So that night you must have gone out for the reason of 'going to the bathroom' and took the opportunity to kill the tour guide so as not to arouse Ying's suspicion."
Having said that, this is just his own inference.
Because the tour guide's body had already drifted away with the sea.
He only determined this through a certain degree of clues and Yandora's perception of the sea.
"And the next day, you led us near the wolf's footprints. You wanted us to subconsciously leave the impression that there were wild beasts in the forest, and that the tour guide might have been attacked by the wild beast in the forest."
Bai Qiyun let out a long breath.
At first, he didn't have any doubts about this matter, but several people had been searching for news about the Lord of the Rings in the forest for so long, but they didn't encounter a single wolf.
He also had to wonder if Darcy did it intentionally.
"But your original plan was disrupted because Dolha disappeared. It is impossible that two of the eleven people who landed on the island were attacked and killed by wild beasts one after the other, so everyone thought that a murderer had committed the crime.
It will be difficult for you to take action next time."
Bai Qiyun pulled up a chair and sat in front of the female reporter.
"But at that time, I was still kept in the dark and didn't know who the murderer was, so I took advantage of it. I first passed the news to the Knights in front of everyone, and set a return date for this journey.
As long as the murderer wants to take action, he must seize the time. After that, I deliberately sent away several pairs of people who could not be the murderer, leaving the opportunity to you."
Hearing this, Darcy understood everything.
All this is just a trap.
And she was the lamb who foolishly got into the trap.
"This opportunity is both for you and for Oros. If you had chosen to give up at that time, things would not be like this."
Hearing this, a hint of sarcasm appeared on Darcy's lips.
"Give up, how could I give up? Do you know these guys -"
"They killed your parents, right?"
Facing the young man's confident gaze, Darcy showed surprise for the first time.
Her messy hair was streaked across her face.
"how do you know..."
"Of course I know. I went out yesterday just to investigate this matter."
Bai Qiyun took out a book from his side, and many traces of time could be seen on the book.
"It's only after I find something that I can confirm your identity. Darcy, you should be the original person of this village."
Darcy fell silent again, or she didn't know whether to answer the young man in front of her.
"Only the indigenous people of the village can accurately find out which house does not have a toilet so that you can implement your plan. Only because of this will you kill the tour guide first, because he is the most likely to recognize you.
people."
Bai Qiyun held the book in his hand, and he roughly read through the contents.
"You can only make so many arrangements if you are an aborigine of the village."
He straightened up, lifted up a piece of floorboard, and took out a gem exuding incense.
The aroma emitted by this thing can make people fall into hallucinations, which is why Oros lost his job.
But that fragrance was now completely suppressed by Bai Qiyun's elemental power.
The physical evidence is here, and there is no point in hiding it any more.
"So what does this have to do with my parents?"
"Of course it does matter, because this book was left by your parents."
"What!"
Bai Qiyun chuckled lightly and threw the book to the woman in front of him.
The story begins fifteen years ago.
Darcy's father was the village chief of Kirishima Village. At that time, there was no fog around the island. It was just a small island on the edge of Mondstadt.
Although everyone's life is hard, they can barely survive.
But the village chief didn't want to see everyone lose weight day by day. He gritted his teeth and took out a certain book that had been treasured in his home for thousands of years.
Follow the above tips and come to a cave.
After unlocking the first mechanism, he went to the depths and triggered the second mechanism.
From that moment on, the mist continuously poured out from the underground of the island and enveloped the entire island.
It turns out that the village chief's family is one of Mondstadt's old nobles, but unlike the nobles who exploited the common people in the Dark Ages, they focus on life overseas.
Their family is like a gatekeeper, protecting a certain secret that survives to this day.
But all this was broken by the village chief. He activated the mechanism and released the news of the Lord of the Rings, attracting many adventurers to come and explore.
With popularity comes a source of income.
Just when everyone in the village thought that this matter would develop for the better, an accident happened.
An adventurer with evil intentions came from afar, colluded with a local villager, and found the village chief's home.
Killing all the unsuspecting village chief and his wife, only the young daughter escaped because she was playing a hide-and-seek game with her parents.
And this daughter is none other than Darcy.
"And what happened after that was to cross the ocean and go to Fontaine to find a job."
Only in this way, Kaia's investigation did not find any traces.
Because Darcy did grow up in Fontaine and worked in the newspaper for seven or eight years.
"Now that I think about it, you must have planned to bring us to this island, right? To give you an alibi?"
"Um."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Darcy let out a sigh of relief and said slowly while lying on the bed holding her parents' books.
"Everything is as you said, but I didn't expect that you are much more powerful than I thought. What are you going to do now? Hand me over to the Knights?"
"Naturally, I don't have the power to judge. I will only take action when my life is endangered."
Bai Qiyun spread his hands.
"I originally thought that you would change your mind. After all, this fat man has committed murder, and he will be punished if he is handed over to the Knights. But I didn't expect that you still didn't let go of the hatred in your heart and did something stupid.
.”
Hearing this, Darcy's face hardened, and there was a hint of ferocity in the corner of her mouth.
"Oh, to put it lightly, how could I possibly let it go?"
After saying that, she twisted her neck and looked at Orlos, who was shivering in the corner, like a ferocious wolf.
If Bai Qiyun hadn't ripped off all the claws of the she-wolf, Oros would be a dead man now.
"I know too."
Bai Qiyun had no good solution for this kind of hatred written in his blood.
"By the way, besides that book, I also found this in the secret passage of your house."
He took out a bottle of wine and handed it to the woman in front of him.
The bottle is a little old, but the words on the bottle are very clear.
The four characters "Qianfeng Fine Wine" are printed on it.
Come to think of it, Darcy's parents passed away fifteen years ago at this time.
Darcy curiously opened the cork, and a strong aroma of wine instantly filled the room.
The house, which was already warmed by the sun, now felt even more cozy.
Darcy carefully brought the bottle to her mouth and took a small sip.
Thousand Winds Wine is a kind of wine first brewed by the Mondlanders, and is famous for its thousands of people and thousands of faces.
In this day when Mondstadt people love drinking the most, Qianfeng Wine is like a must-have delicacy for every family, served on the dining table.
Suddenly, a sour feeling accompanied by a fruity aroma rippled in Darcy's mouth.
The wine flowed down her throat like a clear spring, clear and dry.
This feeling reminded Dulcie of her childhood when she was caught secretly drinking wine brewed by her father.
'Haha, the little guy is not old enough to drink yet.'
The warmth in her memory has long gone with the west wind, and only the residual warmth remains in her heart.
