They went out to the outside, the crowd did not disperse but only see them getting out. They all stretched their neck to see, but unfortunately cannot see anything. This group of curious people did not have a courage to stop Mo Yuan to ask but automatically give out road. Su Su along with him, the two marching the moonlight, all the way back. "Just now you have some words, but did not finish it." Earlier, Su Su thought to ask Mo Yuan later, but he ash her first. She thought for a while, from her pocket she took out a piece of white fine fringed, spread out on her palm and handed to Mo Yuan, "I found this beside the table in your hut and picked it up. Mo Yuan stopped, looked down at the thing on her palm, his black eyes slightly squinted but did not answer. Su Su retrieved back her hand and hide back the white tassel in her pocket, continue to ask: "In the evening after Sang Leng and I left, Sang Nian go to your huts. When does she come? How long does she stayed?” "After you left, she and I went back to the hut. Shed stayed for about an hour, and at 3 at Xu time, she left.” Mo Yuan answered very quickly, and clearly. After finished, he stared at Su Su for a while, then asked: "You doubt her? Su Su nodded, and shook her head, "Wu Mu have a really bizarre death. His cause of death, I think there are two possiblity, one is poisoning, one is hypnotized. I have just checked his throat, mouth, and limbs, completely do not see signs of poisoning. As for the hypnosis, not the average person can do, Sang Nian is the most likely to perform it, but from the corpse point of view, Wu Mu has been dead for about two hours or so, that time, she was watching the Snag Leng practice at the beach and after that she is with you. She did not have time to commit the crime. " Everything is only a speculation, to determine the reasons for the death is really due to Wu Mu’s blood loss This can only be proved by performing an autopsy, but she is not aunt, nor sister Chen. For a simple deduction of the time he die and to verify whether the poisoning is the cause, she can do but not be accurate. To determine the exact time of death of Wu Mu, she cannot do. Unfortunately, when she went there, Wu Mu's room has already been crowded with people, these people have long destroyed the scene. There may be a useful clues but it have to be denied, if she can come early to ... ... Su Su completely absorb in her mind, thinking about the case, and even forget the existence of Mo Yuan around her. Su Su raised his head and really saw Mo Yuan quietly standing on her side. The night still dark It was still dark night than Mouguang fell on his face. Not sharp, but let her breathe become colder. "Do not want to continue?." Su Su chuckled, "finished, for the time being only can think of these." Su Su worried that Mo Yuan will not easily let her go but he voice dismissively said: "Then let's go, your meal must already become cold. "..." The next morning "Come on!" "Someone is dead!" "is that true?" "It's so miserable!" Su Su slips her eyes wide open, suddenly sit straight, calm and quietly listen to the outside, variety of crushing words. Some people died? Su Su just woke up the brain still not work fully, but things that being said outside makes her heart become like a string which stretched more tightly. Su Su thought investigate of the situation. She move up from the couch, check her clothes, and touch her mask, to determine its in good condition, then decided to go out to take a look at it. Just out of two steps, suddenly saw Mo Yuan figure, Su Su whole body become stiff. Inside the Flower room, Li Yang is not there, Mo Yuan back is face her, the nose can smell a touch of tea. Su Su become chagrin. When does Mo Yuan wake up? Does she really sleep too much? "It there something wrong." He heard movement from behind but for a long time did not see Su Su came up. Mo Yuan did not look back, that indifferent tone, as if not talking about a human life. Su Su set her mind, go around the wooden chair and to Mo Yuan side, she pointed to the house, asked: "want to go and see?" Mo Yuan looked at her mask, nodded slightly. The two went out of the house to see the direction of the people who went to the cave, apparently on the beach a lot of people have heard the news, from the distance, they can hear the noise but cannot see beyond the gathered crowd. They look at each other and walk to that direction. At Sang Nian medical shop, the wooden doors just open and Sang Nian puzzled face can be seen. She obviously just getting up from her sleep. “Ah Nian, good morning!”. Su Su waved her hand, naturally greet her. Sang Nian look at them and give a smile, replied “ Good morning Xiao Shu”. Su Su suddenly found that at this beach, they rarely take the initiative to greet people, Just now, only Sang Nian greet her but Mo Yuan, he will just nodded it. In this Island people, when they face Mo Yuan, all of them will be respectful, even Ji dangjiade have to call him “Mo shao zu”. This response is really abnormal. Su Su quietly look at Mo Yuan, who has long been accustomed with this treatment. Su Su heart emerge out of three words: they are really weird! From the distant, a long tall figure against the crowd have come to them. Sang Leng’s face which is serious and give a cold expression have tell them that the things happen this morning is very difficult, and sure enough, when he arrived, Sang Leng said: "This is a real trouble on this island." They become quite. After some time, Sang Nian whispered, “let’s go and take a look”. They all went inside. In the beginning, Su Su thought that the scene is in the cave, but Sang Leng bring them around the cave. And after some distance, they finally walked into the cave which situated beside the jungle. After entering, Su Su see al lot of people gathered in front of the cave. When they approached, the crowd automatically separate. The first thing that Su Su saw is a person lying in the middle of large pool blood. His limbs and abdomen have wound and a dagger which still dripping in blood. His eyes is open, hideous and terrible. He is killed with the same way as Wu Mu. The victim is the same sly young boy that she see last night. From this situation, Su Su finally know why Sang Leng have such a cold face and ugly. This wolf island appeared to face some serial killer which in the killing spree.
