"The Days of Being a Spiritual Mentor in Meiman"

, the days when I was a spiritual mentor in Meiman

Benjamin stood silently in the middle of the reception room. After thinking for a long time, he finally spoke: "I don't know, do you know about the accident of the mayoral election two years ago..."

"The mayor of the metropolis is a very important position. The state assembly is often very cautious when selecting candidates. Generally speaking, there will be no more than 4 candidates. It is the same as all mayoral elections. One of them is Two are there to make up the number, and the rest are competitive."

"However, the election for the mayor of the metropolitan area was very fierce. There were 12 candidates in total, each representing different parties and forces."

Schiller frowned and looked at Benjamin, asking: "Why are there so many people? How did the state legislature pass it?"

Benjamin also looked at Schiller. He stared into Schiller's eyes and said: "The reason why this election was held is because the mayor of White's predecessor was assassinated. This is an urgent election."

“The state legislature was worried that there were not enough candidates and that the election might be manipulated by people with ulterior motives, so it relaxed the review criteria,”

“The state legislature thought that at least 10 of the 12 candidates were just trying to add a little luster to their resumes, and they didn’t really want to compete for this position, but who knew, they were all fighting for this position. Location."

Benjamin's tone became more and more low, he said: "Perhaps from this time on, there have been signs."

"In the beginning, it was just a normal election competition, including speeches, contesting votes, attacking opponents..."

"However, the situation became worse and worse after that. Election bribery, rumour-mongering, harassment, revelations, and even two candidates were inexplicably involved in a car accident and had to be admitted to the hospital."

"Seeing that the situation is out of control, the governor wants everyone to sit down and talk, so as not to make this matter too ugly."

"The method is the same as the tradition for many years. Hold a banquet, let the middleman talk to the right person at the right time, and eliminate the turmoil invisible."

Benjamin turned his head back, looked up and down the reception room, and said: "In order to calm this group of people and to convince the public, the state assembly also invited many famous people, including the Metropolitan, then Famous entrepreneurs, well-known scholars and professors, artists and media people."

"The place they chose for the banquet is here - the Metropolitan Mayor's Mansion."

"And then?" Schiller asked.

"After that, everything got out of hand."

Benjamin turned his head to look at the snow that was getting bigger and bigger outside the window. The snowflakes were flying in the storm, like a white bird going upstream in a tornado, and at the end of the skyline, it turned into a rising and rolling white mist.

Accompanied by Benjamin's narration, Schiller also turned his head to look out the window. His eyes passed through the vast snow, as if he saw another mayor's mansion that was exactly the same, which appeared two years ago today.

The dim warm lights swayed in the blizzard, and the mayor's manor was full of people.

The dance moves lightly, the cups touch each other, the light of the candles flickers on the silver candlesticks, the tassels of the gorgeous tablecloths fall down, and the people in dresses are talking with their glasses of wine, with elegant smiles on their faces.

The host of the banquet smiled and nodded to the small group of people who were chatting. They stepped aside and the host stood in the middle of the banquet hall. He stopped what he was doing and turned to look at him.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Thank you for gathering together on such a night! Although the wind and snow outside the window is very strong, it is with our hearts!"

"First of all, I would like to invite the host of this banquet, the Deputy Speaker of the Delaware State Assembly, a famous social activist, philanthropist, and author-Nelson Perez!"

With a loud bang, a corpse fell from the sky.

Precision, humor, and drama.

Time flies between the flying snowflakes, passes through the hazy white fog, stops in the warm light from a window, looks in through the glass covered with ice, and meets Schiller .

Schiller paused, turned his head back, and he heard Benjamin say: "...like a humorous joke, when the host pronounced the name of the deputy speaker, his body fell from the sky. "

At this moment, Bruce turned his head to look at Schiller. Schiller moved his eyes slightly. The moment he met Bruce's eyes, he lowered his head and buried himself in the study of the pattern on the handle of his umbrella.

"But this is just the beginning..." Benjamin's tone became as cold as the weather outside.

"After the death of the deputy speaker, the police arrived and they sealed off the scene. In order to prevent the murderer from escaping, everyone was driven into the guest room. Soon, the second victim, the third victim... "

"One after another, the way of death is different..."

"In the end, out of the 12 candidates, only 4 were left, and 8 of them were murdered."

"This incident alarmed the entire east coast. The FBI sent agents to investigate, but the final conclusion was that the people who came to the banquet were mixed with spies from various countries. In order to shake the political situation on the east coast, They shot to kill."

Benjamin raised his head, but lowered his eyelids, his eyeballs rolled down, and looked at Onnell's body, he said: "It involves spies, I was transferred to the Metropolis to investigate this matter, and when this job fell on me Only then did I realize that things are not that simple."

"The murderer who killed the 8 candidates is not one person, their goals are different, but there is no doubt that they are all the top killers, the most troublesome kind of high-IQ criminals... "

Benjamin's tone trembled at the end. Obviously, his mood was not calm. Even after two years, recalling the situation at that time still made him feel stressed.

"During subsequent investigations, I discovered that the mayor's manor at that time seemed to have become a hunting ground for those perverted serial murderers."

"My Healing Game"

"They used their respective best methods to create a series of murderous incidents, and when they were intertwined, they formed a mystery that could not be solved by any investigation..."

Schiller's fingertips holding the handle of the umbrella paused, and he looked at Benjamin and asked, "So, have you found anything?"

Benjamin was silent for a while, he shook his head and said: "We can only speculate that there were four murderers, and one of them killed two targets."

"Have you found out who it is?"

Benjamin shook his head. He looked down at Laonnell's body and said, "At that time, Luthor was also at the scene. I think he killed Mayor White and Old Pike to imitate the killing of the deputy speaker. The murderer did it."

"He did a poor imitation," Schiller began.

"Indeed." Benjamin affirmed this, and he said: "Even if he didn't admit it in the bathroom, I've already locked him in. The method he used is actually very simple."

Speaking, Benjamin raised his head and looked at the ceiling of the reception room. He said, "The roof of this ancient manor is very high, and there is a space above and below the ceiling."

"He bought the building next to the mayor's mansion, sneaked in ahead of time, set up a trap in the attic, knocked the target unconscious in advance, and took it up."

"The sound of people and music in the banquet hall covered up the sound of the muffler pistol firing, and the mechanism has a delay, so when shooting and killing people, Layonnell can appear in any place where there are bystanders , as an alibi for yourself.”

"I would like to call this method a classic, but it should be called an old-fashioned one." Schiller concluded, he looked at Benjamin and asked, "The agents should have found it in the space above the ceiling. Did he kill him?"

"Actually, earlier than you think."

Now that things are up to now, Benjamin doesn't intend to pretend any more. He said directly: "We are not the idiots of the FBI. We won't wait until everything is over before making a long speech there."

"Then why didn't you arrest him immediately?" Selena asked with a frown. In her opinion, if Benjamin had acted earlier, perhaps they would not have been trapped in this manor.

Benjamin snorted coldly, and he said: "I told you so much just to explain this matter."

"I didn't arrest Lai Annell immediately, just to see what he was going to do."

"I'm not a witness to the incident two years ago, but in subsequent investigations, I found that the four murderers who committed the murder seemed to be looking for something."

"Luther participated in the banquet two years ago, and he seems to have gotten some clues from it. I don't know if he mentioned to some of you that he was looking for a treasure... "

"This is exactly the clue he got at the banquet, during the gap between the murders."

"Treasure? What is that?" Schiller asked very straightforwardly.

Benjamin gave him a meaningful look, and said bluntly: "There is no definite answer, but I suspect that it is Philby's list."

"You want to let Luthor find that so-called treasure, and then arrest him after he finds it, so that you can kill two birds with one stone," Schiller said, and then. He turned his gaze to Leonel, and continued:

"But it looks like your plan has failed."

Benjamin also set his sights on Lionel, he said: "That's because he is really an idiot."

"I saw him in the reception room. He cursed everything crazily, as if he had lost his mind, and then wanted to attack me, so I knocked him out."

"But..." Benjamin changed the subject, then turned his head to stare at Schiller, and then said, "During the conversation with Laonnell, he told me the truth, do you know what it is? ?”

"What?" Schiller also looked at him and asked.

"You are the murderer who killed the deputy speaker. Moreover, you killed two people and dismembered one of them. He saw it with his own eyes."

In an instant, the atmosphere in the reception room froze, and everyone had different expressions. A storm spread from between Schiller and Benjamin's line of sight, and their auras began to clash.

In an instant, amidst the howl of the wind, the cold snow flakes like knives.

Time went backwards again, back to the time when Selina knocked Onel to the ground

After Selena finished all this, she left without looking back. After returning to her room, she pretended to be intimate with Bruce and drove Benjamin out.

Regardless of how Bruce and Selena carried out the monitoring plan afterwards, Benjamin, who left the room, immediately wanted to find Onel.

He stopped the agent who was guarding the corridor, and the agent told him that Leonel had gone to the reception room and hadn't come out until now, so Benjamin went to the reception room, he wanted to talk to Laonnell .

When Benjamin came to the reception room, Leonel had barely got up from the ground.

Selena hit him in the face with the vase. Although it seemed to be a lot of noise, it was actually not very lethal, except that the fragments of the wine bottle scratched the skin on his face, and the heavy blow made his body Except for the injury to the nasal cartilage, the skull and brain were not injured~IndoMTL.com~Lao Onel lay on the ground for a while, then got up and started looking for something to stop the bleeding.

When Benjamin walked in, he was stunned for a moment when he saw this scene, and then he immediately stepped forward and asked Annell: "What's going on here? Someone attacked you?"

Leonel, who was wiping the blood with a tissue, turned his head and glanced at Benjamin. From his eyes, Benjamin saw endless anger and malice.

"Go away, you annoying fly!" Lyonel had completely lost his simple and kind pretense, and the irascibility and greed in his nature were undoubtedly revealed.

Before Benjamin could continue to say anything, Lai Onel yelled: "You guys are the same as the police! I pay so much tax every year, but I only feed you trash, I can't give you money. Any help I offer is just buzzing like a fly!"

"And that **** and White! He forgot who paid a lot of money to get him in the first place after the assassination scandal!"

"I just asked him to cooperate with me in killing a few people, but he dared to ask me to help him enter the state assembly?!"

"Does he think he is a precious resource?! As long as I have money, I can promote anyone! And he, not only his career, but his life has come to an end!"

"Oh...old Pike, that **** dealer! Keeping prices down every year! He's targeting a few of my farms in Kansas! I know he's taking money from my competitors, but that's okay, I can kill He!"

Lionel gritted his teeth viciously, and various curse words spilled out of his mouth, bloodstains and fragments of a vase that hadn't been wiped off stuck to his face, making him look like a forced animal. The cornered beast looked extremely embarrassed.
