Chapter 187 The Fallen Clothes 3

Su Tao rubbed the center of her brows, she turned on the lamp beside the bed, looked at the alarm clock, it was 11:30.

Her room was next to the stairwell, and if anyone wanted to go down, they would definitely pass by her door.

Su Tao held a notebook and sat on the ground against the door. She wrote everyone in the notebook, and wrote the words murderer, undercover, and civilian on a blank piece of paper.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a slight sound from the door, getting closer and closer, Su Tao looked at the time, it was getting closer.

Mr. James's study is the third room on the second floor. Although the housekeeper did not let Su Tao in, she still found out that there are only two keys to the study room, one is in the housekeeper's hand, and the other is in the house. James himself.

Su Tao followed behind the man. He was dressed in black, with a hat on his head, and his whole body was tightly wrapped. It was impossible to tell whether he was a man or a woman.

The man was standing at the railing on the second floor, looking down. Unexpectedly, he did not go to the study, but kept his two hands in black gloves on the railing, as if he was thinking about something, because the castle is very Hei, Su Tao couldn't see what he was doing.

This castle was built very high, the distance from the first floor to the second floor was as high as seven or eight meters. If someone fell from the second floor, even if they couldn't die, they would suffer serious injuries.

After about 5 minutes, he withdrew his hand, turned around and walked to the door of the study, and a silver key appeared in his hand.

The moment Su Tao was about to open the door, he ran a few steps and grabbed his hand holding the key.

The man should have expected it a long time ago, he quickly took the key away with his other hand, and then he was going to hit Su Tao with his fists clenched.

Su Tao stumbled and wrapped around him lightly. With a sudden push, the man fell heavily to the ground.

When she was about to lift the hat off the man's head, she heard a piercing scream. It was also the moment of hesitation that gave the man on the ground a chance, and he rolled on the ground. , raised his hand and sprinkled a handful of white ash directly at Su Tao's eyes.

Su Tao had no choice but to avoid the unknown Bai Hui, but let him go. She stood there and looked at the direction where the shadow disappeared. She didn't choose to chase him, but walked to the place where he was standing just now place to observe.

She put her hand on the armrest and pushed hard, but nothing happened.

So what is he going to do?

Suddenly, the lights in the corridor on the second floor were all turned on, shining brightly on Su Tao who was standing alone in front of the study, she subconsciously took her hand off the railing.

"what are you doing here?"

There were three people standing by the stairs, all looking surprised.

For a moment, Su Tao suddenly understood what that person wanted to do. She opened her mouth and said truthfully, "I just saw someone coming over, so I chased him over to have a look."

Capel Love looked left and right, "But, Miss Russell, I only saw you."

"Let me ask you a question first, who was screaming just now?"

"It's me." Mrs. Capet took a step forward and explained: "Someone knocked on my door just now. After I opened it, I found a bloody skull and couldn't help screaming."

"Then the two of them?"

Andrew still looked very elegant, "I heard Mrs. Capet's scream, and then I came out, and I saw a black shadow running down again, and we chased it down."

"So," Cape Love looked at Su Tao, "Miss Russell, you have asked us so much, now is the time to tell us why you are here?"

"I said, someone led me here."

"Where are the witnesses and evidence?" Capel Love was aggressive.

Su Tao was a little helpless, her eyes were calm, and she didn't show any emotion, "No."

"Miss Russell, you have serious doubts now, and you may be a murderer." Mrs. Capet said sternly.

"Miss Russell?" The rest of the people came down, and they stood together, as if they were in the same camp. The Duke of Argyll asked sleepily, "Why are you there?"

Only Gu Yanqing crossed the crowd and walked towards her step by step.

When he approached, he lowered his voice and said to Su Tao, "How did you fall into the trap?" He was still smiling a little. In his opinion, this didn't seem to be a serious matter.

"I didn't expect him to be so cunning."

This was the first time that Gu Yanqing appeared in front of everyone. Under the illumination of the lights, his facial features became more and more clear. His pair of deep peach blossom eyes were especially eye-catching. Standing together with Su Tao, he really looked like a man and woman.

"Everyone, don't fall for the trap, how could she be so stupid, standing here swaggeringly waiting for you to catch her?"

Mr. De Gesse squinted his eyes, and looked suspiciously at Su Tao and Gu Yanqing, "The system said that there are murderers and undercover agents among us, and now it seems that the undercover agents are indeed helping the murderer. "

His words directly revealed the identities of Su Tao and Gu Yanqing.

"No, brother, are you so powerful?"

De Gesse scratched his head and said modestly, "Oh, no."

Su Tao: "...Brother, we are really not murderers and civilians. He is..." She paused, this identity cannot be said casually, "Anyway, don't guess randomly, I don't have a key to the study, and I didn't go in. Seeing the corpse tomorrow, it’s not too late to make a judgment.”

Someone hesitated, Mrs. Capet opened her mouth, "But..."

"I won't kill people." Su Tao said straight away, "I won't do anything until I see the dead body tomorrow."

Gu Yanqing volunteered, smiling, "I'm looking at her." He took out the black card in his hand, "I'm a commoner, and I've got a showdown."

Su Tao was startled, glanced sideways at him, and lowered his voice, "What's the matter with you."

"Jiujiu, we are good friends. If your friend is in trouble, shouldn't you help me?" Gu Yanqing raised his voice, "There must be civilians among you, and someone must know that my card is not fake."

They had different expressions. After a long while, one of them spoke, and Andrew said, "Okay, it's late too, take a good rest, there are still many things to do tomorrow."

"Ok."

Some people looked at Su Tao with suspicion.

After all the people left, Su Tao said to Gu Yanqing: "Actually, you don't need to reveal your identity, even if they think I'm a murderer, they won't be able to kill me."

"Jiujiu, the real murderer can't kill me." Gu Yanqing raised her hand to touch Su Tao's head, but she dodged it subconsciously.

"Okay, I'm going back to my room."

"Jijiu, I'll go up with you, if someone wants to kill me, a commoner, you have to protect me."

Su Tao responded coldly: "As God wishes."
