Six years later, I and my four cubs blew up my ex-husband's house

Chapter 2871 This guess is a bit bold.

Shi Ye narrowed his eyes, his gaze sharp as a knife, as if he was rapidly piecing together clues in his mind.

Suddenly, without warning, he leaned down into the water, stretched out his arm, and pulled a skeleton from the depths of the water.

Her frame was slender and petite, and it was immediately obvious that she was a young woman.

A rusty dagger was stuck in the skeleton's chest.

It matches perfectly with what is described in the diary.

Charlene was speechless with emotion.

A few seconds later, she asked, "Has everyone involved in this matter met with misfortune?"

If that's the case, how do we uncover the rest of the truth?

Shi Ye slowly spoke: "The clues have not actually been lost."

First, the diary mentions that she received a death threat letter, suspected to be from Director York.

If I remember correctly, one of the clues we found was a death threat.

As he spoke, Shi Ye began to rummage through the papers, and soon he actually pulled out a yellowed piece of paper.

Charlene stared at it for a few seconds, then frowned slightly and said, "Is this a death threat? It looks more like a warning."

Shi Ye shook his head, his expression slightly grave: "We don't know his exact identity yet, but at least we now have a new breakthrough."

This suddenly appearing Director York is likely a key figure.

I think we can start by examining the records and files to thoroughly investigate this person's background.

Furthermore, the later entries in the diary contain quite a lot of information.

He continued, "The diary mentions that she hid inside a machine, but when she came out, she found herself in a completely unfamiliar place."

Let's make a bold assumption: that machine wasn't a medical device at all, nor was it a torture instrument, but rather...

What about a machine that can travel through time?

Charlene looked completely bewildered. "You mean... she time-traveled? Oh... so it started with the supernatural and then switched to technology, right?"

Her voice was filled with disbelief.

Shino nodded and said, "The reason for this speculation is not based on mere conjecture, but on certain grounds."

If you look closely at the following description, you'll see that she explicitly mentions that the hospital became unfamiliar to her, and the entire layout had changed, which is why she ultimately failed to escape.

Moreover, a long time has passed?

All of this suggests that the hospital may have undergone a large-scale renovation project.

A bold hypothesis suddenly occurred to me: perhaps this pool in front of me was originally secretly built deep underground?

Upon hearing this, Charlene's eyes widened.

Isn't this a bit too far-fetched?

She asked hesitantly, "Do you mean that the ground we're standing on now was dug up and rebuilt by someone later?"

Shi Ye nodded slightly, his expression focused and serious. He further explained, "That's right, there's a basis for this guess."

He pointed to the building in front of him and continued in a calm tone, "You can take a closer look at the exterior of this building."

The first floor is obviously very new, as if it has been repainted.

However, the situation is completely different from the second floor upwards. The walls look particularly old, with peeling and mottled coatings, covered with traces of wind, sun and the erosion of time, and even stains and watermarks caused by rainwater seepage.

Doesn't this stark contrast between the old and new sections hint at some deeper issues?

Charlene had a sudden realization and finally nodded in agreement.

Indeed, Tokino's guess is quite reliable.

Moreover, she herself discovered some clues, and her tone gradually became more certain, "If that's really the case, then Fiona must have seen something incredible when she sneaked into the underground base in the middle of the night."

She became more and more excited as she spoke, her voice filled with the exhilaration of a breakthrough in her investigation. "Let me make a bold assumption: what she saw at the time was most likely this pool!"

Shino met her gaze and asked, "Did she see these people being drowned?"

Charlene shook her head, her eyes revealing a deeper worry, and added in a solemn tone, "Saying it was drowned is not comprehensive enough."

I think the water in this pool isn't ordinary water, but rather a specially formulated medicinal solution.

Do you remember when we discovered some strange drug ingredients during our investigation in the pharmacy?

At the time, I had doubts about some of the ingredients, but I didn't have any solid evidence.

Looking back now, perhaps my guess at the time was correct.

This pool of water is very likely the legendary corpse-dissolving water.

She paused for a moment, as if organizing her thoughts.

He then continued to explain, "The way those drug ingredients are combined is very similar to the formula for corpse-dissolving water that I once saw in a classic book."

This potion can rapidly decompose organic tissue, and even dissolve a corpse's flesh completely within a short time.

After hearing this, Shi Ye was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Are you sure?"

If it was a body-dissolving solution, why weren't the bones found by the police?

Charlene narrowed her eyes and slowly spoke, her tone thoughtful, "I suspect that the police didn't find the entrance to the underground base during their investigation."

That's why so many people disappear without a trace, and can't be found.

Upon hearing this, Shi Ye frowned slightly.

After a moment of silence, he nodded, finding Xia Lin's conjecture quite reasonable.

Charlene continued, "So, the question comes full circle: who is the murderer?"

Shi Ye pondered for a few seconds, his gaze becoming deep.

He recalled the details and asked softly, "Do you remember the ghostly face you saw? It disappeared behind that machine at the end."

Could I interpret this as the other party being able to freely travel between different spaces, or through hidden passages?

Charlene nodded slightly in agreement, "Yes, that's one way to understand it."

It is precisely because the other party possesses this ability that we have been unable to find any trace of him.

Shino nodded, pulled out the documents, and said in a serious tone, "There is a list of deaths on this."

I think the best way to find out the killer's identity is through the process of elimination.

We need to excavate all the remains again and compare and confirm them one by one.

Eventually, we should be able to determine who is still alive.

And who, perhaps, is the real culprit hiding behind all this?

Charlene agreed.

Although, according to the plot, this pool is seven or eight meters deep.

But in the end, this was just a prop arranged by the production team; it was impossible for it to actually be filled with seven or eight meters of skeletons.

Therefore, they only need to find the props corresponding to the key characters in the storyline.

After discussing and agreeing on the plan, the two did not hesitate and immediately put it into action.

In fact, the production team had already taken this into account, so they prepared the necessary props in advance.

Tokino held a long hook and pulled several lifelike skeletons from the pond, placing them one by one on the open ground next to him.

Before long, six or seven skeleton props were neatly arranged on the ground.

Throughout the process, the two worked together seamlessly and were extremely efficient.
