Among the young girls in their twenties in the village,the one who had a good relationship with David Brown and might have come to see David Brown recently,besides Amanda Smith,there really didn't seem to be anyone else.
Thinking of this,I told Lily Thompson the name of Amanda Smith.
It was just dusk now.Michael Chen and Lily Thompson returned to the old house.Lily Thompson was searching for information about Amanda Smith through the police system,while I lay on the bed to calm down.
I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep,so I decided to look for the pattern of the arrangement of the corpses and also started to take out my computer to investigate.
I searched for several hours,and in the middle of the night,I suddenly received a text message.
It was an overseas number.As soon as I saw it,I knew it was a typical scam text message!
However,the content of this scam text message made me discover something astonishing.
This text message was a link.After I clicked in,I found that it was a cult forum,which was filled with all kinds of strange lectures and high-sounding reasons.
All kinds of superstitious things such as ghosts and gods filled it.
However,one article caught my attention.
The article said that the murderers could be punished as they deserved by setting up a formation.
Separate the murderer's head from the body and arrange them in the order shown in the picture.In this way,the murderer's soul will be punished by the underworld,making the murderer suffer in pain and never recover.
Not only that,after that,the people who were once hurt by the murderer or those who had been killed would be grateful to you,allowing you to gain great fortune,get out of poverty and difficulties,and be able to be reborn into the family you dream of in the next life.
After reading this,I was completely uneasy,because Amanda Smith,like David Brown,had no parents.
But...
Wasn't Amanda Smith an abandoned baby?
The elders in the village were kind-hearted and adopted her.They not only gave Amanda Smith an empty house to live in,but also usually made an extra portion of food for her.The tuition fees for her primary school were also raised by the elders in the village together.
Amanda Smith had always been very grateful to the people in the village since she was a child.How could she have done such a thing as killing the people in the village?
I shook my head,thinking that I absolutely couldn't let my feelings affect my judgment.So I got up and was going to share my discovery with Lily Thompson.
Just at this moment,when I reached the living room,Lily Thompson also came to find me.We happened to meet each other.
"Amanda Smith is dead."
Before I could open my mouth,Lily Thompson said it first.Her words made me stunned,and for a moment,I didn't react.
"According to the records of the police system,Amanda Smith committed suicide a year ago."
"Ah?!"
I looked at her in disbelief,and my whole mind went blank.
"Amanda Smith committed suicide by jumping off a building due to depression a year ago."
"Does that mean Amanda Smith isn't the murderer?"
"How could a person who has been dead for a year be the murderer?"
Upon hearing this,I didn't hesitate and told Lily Thompson all the clues I had just obtained.
After hearing about the situation,Lily Thompson frowned,seemingly deep in thought.
After a while,she said calmly:
"Since that's the case,we can only wait and see what the autopsy report says.It's obvious that these people were all given powerful anesthetic drugs to make them unconscious so that they couldn't wake up.Then we'll see if we can trace the source of the drugs.It's getting late,let's go to bed."
