"It seems... I still don't know him... I have no impression of him at all."
Leng Mengyao bravely stretched his neck and looked a few more times, but he still shook his head.
"Take another look... take a closer look. Look carefully. Are you sure you don't recognize him at all?"
Lu Xuan was really getting anxious. He had endured such immense pain, fallen into this hole, and finally "recognized" these two corpses again, but you just said "I don't recognize them"... Then all his efforts were in vain, and all the pain he was suffering from was in vain...
"I really don't know them... Lu Xuan, are you sure... these two people really came from our ship?"
As a result, Leng Mengyao on the other side even suspected that Lu Xuan was seeing things.
"Yes, very sure. They said so themselves. Oh, and they also said they saw you guys on the yacht. It was you, Shen Keyin, and I guess Yin Yichen was one of them too."
Lu Xuan tried hard to recall what the two people said on the first night on the island.
Although the two men did not specify which beauty they had taken a fancy to, it goes without saying that none of the three around them could escape.
...Chen Keyin's belly-revealing shirt, Yin Yichen's shiny leather pants that she was afraid men wouldn't see, and as for Leng Mengyao...she doesn't need anything, this woman has a 1000% rate of turning heads.
"You've seen me? Apart from picking up Yin Yichen, I basically spent most of the time in the private room. They asked me to go karaoke but I didn't go. I had a pile of documents to read and a conference call, so I really couldn't leave..."
Leng Mengyao looked at Lu Xuan in confusion, and finally glanced at the man from a distance.
"Ahem... okay... but that's strange. I asked Shen Keyin, and she didn't seem to recognize these two men at all. What about Yin Yichen? Should we ask her to recognize them?"
Lu Xuan coughed twice, promptly ending the topic that "King of Rolls" Leng Mengyao had started. Then he once again stared at the two bodies, looking them up and down.
Seeing that the clues that had been slightly revealed were completely cut off again, Lu Xuan was now a little desperate and was trying every possible means.
"I don't think that's necessary...Yin Yichen isn't a formal employee of our company to begin with. She rarely comes to the company. As far as I can remember, she's only been here twice, the most recent time being a year and a half ago...Forget these two people, she doesn't even know many of the company employees on the ship."
Leng Mengyao directly rejected Lu Xuan's suggestion. After all, others didn't know Yin Yichen, but she knew her a little bit. This internet celebrity lady even had her agent handle the signing of contracts, payment and collection of accounts.
Lu Xuan calmed down and thought about it carefully. What Leng Mengyao said seemed to be correct. Shen Keyin was a relatively high-profile person in the company, but Miss Yin didn't even seem to recognize her. It seemed that expecting Yin Yichen to identify the two bodies was a fantasy.
"You said... Could these two people not be from our company? Could they be crew members? Or are there other people on this ship..."
Lu Xuan couldn't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time, so he had to open his mind more broadly.
Since even Leng Mengyao didn't recognize him, then this person might not be from his company. Then there were only two possibilities left.
Either the other party is a crew member on the yacht, or these two people are outsiders who have sneaked into the yacht.
"It's unlikely the crew are involved. Yacht crew members all wear work clothes. Take that blond guy, for example. He usually wears a mechanic's uniform. I've dealt with both the captain and the captain once or twice, and they always wear crew uniforms during work hours. As for this yacht company, it was actually recommended by Vice President Tang. They're said to be a very famous yacht rental company. I also took a quick look at their company profile. It's called Shuyou Tianxia... It's a pretty legitimate company. As for what you said about other people sneaking onto our ship... Logically, everyone on this ship should be ours, and we haven't seen anyone else complain."
After Leng Mengyao analyzed each one, he rejected all of Lu Xuan's hypotheses.
Now Lu Xuan was completely clueless.
The identities of these two men have also become a mystery.
"Well... well, it seems like there's really no way forward for this matter..."
Lu Xuan shrugged at Leng Mengyao, indicating that he had tried his best.
"Lu Xuan...I was just wondering, who do you think brought these two bodies here?"
"Yeah, how could I have forgotten that? Look at my brain..."
Hearing Leng Mengyao's words, Lu Xuan slapped his forehead. He actually forgot such crucial information. It seems that this time he fell into the trap and broke not only his butt but also his head. It was really a big loss.
"Look here, and here... they're both very flat, with neat cuts. This means the pit was most likely dug by humans. It's just that the people who dug it were very careless, and the people who filled it in were even more careless, not even filling it in properly. That's why we got caught."
Leng Mengyao checked the pit and soon found traces of human digging.
Lu Xuan scanned the pit in the direction of Leng Mengyao's finger and nodded repeatedly.
There are several smooth marks on the soil surface around the pit, which are obviously man-made. In addition, as Leng Mengyao said, this pit was dug very perfunctorily. Both the depth and size give people a feeling of being done in a hasty manner.
Lu Xuan even briefly recalled the so-called trap set by Miss Yin. It felt as if this trap-digger and Yin Yichen were both taught by the same teacher.
"There's another strange thing... I don't care how many survivors there are on the island right now. I think for most people, even having a full meal and a good night's sleep are luxuries. How could anyone go to the trouble of digging a grave to bury the bodies?"
Following his understanding that this was a man-made pit, Leng Mengyao continued to go deeper.
Lu Xuan agreed wholeheartedly. He himself was a prime example. When he'd dealt with those two, he'd completely given them no thought of burying them. After all, they'd been stranded here, uncertain whether they'd survive the next day, so how could he have the time to care for the dead? He'd dragged their bodies into the bushes and covered them with branches and leaves; that was already considered a righteous act.
But... if the digging of the graves and burying of the bodies were not done by the survivors on the island, then who could have done it?
At this moment, regarding this question, the two of them fell into deep thought at the same time...
Half a minute later, Lu Xuan and Leng Mengyao raised their heads at the same time and looked at each other, as if they saw the same suspicion in each other's eyes...
