Book 3: Chapter 9: The Fifteenth Person
“True, all four of us don’t have train tickets.”
Ye Xiao stared at Yan Kai’s corpse on the ground, then glanced back at Ma Hong Liang’s corpse next to the staircase. Realisation dawned on him as he said, “We were not supposed to appear in that last carriage in the first place, let alone appear here. That’s why someone wants to eliminate us extras!”
But who exactly is the person able to kill others using bees?
Ye Xiao abruptly thought of Zhang Xiao Long, about that final sneer on his face that was chilling enough to make his skin crawl.
Don’t tell me he’s the murderer? But what’s his reason?
There was no reason to be found.
Every single person in that last carriage aside from the Shao sisters were complete strangers with zero connection to each other. What kind of reason would make them harm and even slaughter each other like this?
Oh, no, wait a minute.
Ye Xiao’s thoughts came to a halt. If they were to go by their previous conjecture, then these people technically did just barely have a common point: the invitation letter.
