With Suzuki Sonoko's confession, the police already knew that the murderer of Chihiro Itami, the man of unknown gender wearing a hooded coat, used the sound of fireworks taking off at 7 o'clock to cover up the sound of gunfire.

So...when Izumi Sano said that he was watching the fireworks at the skating rink at 7 o'clock, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Is what she said true, Xiaolan?" Mumu Shisan asked.

"Well..." Mao Lilan thought seriously, "Yes, Miss Sano, Miss Komatsu and Mr. Misawa were indeed at the skating rink when the fireworks were set off."

"But the journey from the restroom to the skating rink is only about 30 seconds." Apparently, a tool man was still struggling with the pre-death message of the 'S'-shaped symbol, "Did you really remember it correctly?"

"No," Mao Lilan said with certainty: "Moreover, even if there is an error of a few seconds, the interval between the first and second shots of the fireworks is only 10 seconds. By that time, they were already on my way.

In front of me."

"Wait a minute, you mean the three of them?" Mouri Kogoro pointed at Oda Kunitomo, "What about him? Where is he?"

Hearing this, Officer Memu looked over with a solemn expression and said, "Where were you at that time? Why didn't you watch the fireworks with your friends?"

"I don't like watching fireworks very much," Oda Kunitomo explained: "Besides, I'm not in a good mood today, so I went to smoke on a bench near the skating rink alone."

I see...

Officer Megure pondered for a moment, "So, among the six people who have had contact with the deceased so far, there is no alibi. The only ones who have no alibi are Mr. Oda, Brother Mori and Brother Saraichi."

Ye Gengyi: "..."

Do you have to make a hard selection of three people?

"Me? Memu Police Department, did you make a mistake..."

The Maori tool man pointed at his nose and laughed dryly: "This case probably has nothing to do with me, right?"

No, the fact that you frequently appear at crime scenes is already very problematic...

Mumu Shisan held back his complaints and ignored him.

"Um...can we go change our shoes first?" Sano Izumi said.

"Yes, because we came directly from the skating rink, it's too inconvenient to stand like this." Misawa Koji agreed from the side.

"Of course not," Ye Gengyi said before Officer Mu Mu could speak, "Since everyone is suspected..."

He looked at Sano Izumi and others, "Everyone should go to the police station for interrogation immediately."

"What are you talking about!" Sano Izumi yelled, "Didn't you hear? All three of us have alibis."

"Yes, this gentleman..." Misawa Koji and Komatsu Raiko were also a little confused and said: "Everyone can understand your feelings of being regarded as a suspect, but I think the three of you who have no alibi are the only ones who can understand this."

You should go and be interrogated by the police..."

As they spoke, they turned their heads again and took a deep look at Oda Kunitomo.

Obviously, in the face of friendship and suspicion, they chose the latter.

"Oh? You guys are quite capable of talking." Ye Geng said, "But... I also have this alibi."

"Eh? Brother Gengyi, are you telling the truth?" Officer Memu turned to Ye Geng and said, "If there is evidence that can prove your innocence, you should have brought it out earlier."

"Originally, I thought that kind of thing should not be used as evidence, but since Xiaolan's testimony is acceptable," Ye Gengyi said, "then Mr. Oda and I probably don't have time to commit the crime."

He looked at Oda Kunitomo, "Before the fireworks went off, there were two girls in their 20s. Did they go and talk to you?"

"How do you know..." Oda Kunitomo was startled and nodded, "Yes, they asked me if I was skating alone and if I wanted to watch the fireworks together, but I refused them, so I treated this kind of thing as nothing.

The alibi must be far-fetched..."

"That's right," Sano Izumama said with a frown as things took a turn for the better, "You two are both suspects. This kind of mutual testimony should not be regarded as evidence."

"No...if they also accosted me, this alibi would be enough." Ye Gengyi said, looking at the former, and said: "And, if you really want to say that, can you come up with it?"

Did Xiaolan see your evidence at 7 o’clock? Video or audio?”

"You..." Sano Izumi was furious, but couldn't find a reason to refute.

Next to him, a certain toolman who had just smiled confidently and was about to give the title of suspect to Oda Kunito was stunned.

What? There is an alibi...then doesn’t the problem return to the starting point?

"Boy, are you sure you can see clearly?"

"Ah..." Ye Gengyi responded, "After all, it's only three minutes from the parking lot to the skating rink. I just wandered there and happened to see it, and... Mr. Maoli, you didn't

Alibi, right?”

Ahem...

A certain tool man choked and coughed repeatedly: "Boy, don't talk nonsense!"

His words immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Ye Gengyi shrugged:

"There is a very ambiguous relationship between alibi and the truth. Speaking of which... I am afraid that only the murderer will bite the alibi to death, so that everyone will deliberately ignore that there may be someone deceased in that mobile phone.

A message before death...you think so, right?"

He paused and continued: "I hope everyone will understand one thing first. Restoring the data in the mobile phone is something the police must do. They will not ignore it just because everyone refuses... So, you guys

Are you willing to stay here and wait, or are you willing to go back to the police station for interrogation together?"

"this..."

Before the murder, they naturally did not want to cause trouble when their own interests were not involved.

But now, the so-called alibi no longer seems to have value under the few words of the guy in front of me. Then when the lifebuoy leaks and the second lifeline is thrown down, even if there may be a barb on it, it will soon be over.

People who are drowning will not think twice about whether their palms will be scratched.

The result is naturally obvious...

"I agree!" Komatsu Raiko said, "Since he can restore Qianxun's mobile phone information, let him restore it. I don't want to go to any police station..."

"Yes, yes, I'm not a murderer anyway," Misawa Koji's voice was a little hurried, as if he was afraid that if he expressed his stance a moment later, he would be regarded as a murderer.

"Miss Sano?" Ye Gengyi asked in his usual calm tone, "Do you have any other opinions?"

"Koizumi! Speak quickly, otherwise you will be regarded as a murderer!" Komatsu Raiko gently pulled her sleeve.

"I... of course have no objection..." As Sano Quan spoke, he took a deep look at Ye Gengyi.
