When I returned to the bedroom on the second floor, it was almost one o'clock in the morning.
In order to ensure that he would not fall asleep due to sleepiness tonight, Fujiwara Yu took out the instant coffee he had prepared in advance from his luggage. To be honest, he had a premonition that something would happen, so he prepared it.
He honestly brewed himself two packs of concentrated instant coffee. After drinking it in one breath, the bitter taste made him sober in an instant. He turned his head and looked at Miyano Akemi, who was thinking thoughtfully.
asked:
"What's wrong? Did you find anything?"
"No, I just think Miss Nakayama will not come to our place." Miyano Akemi shook her head and replied.
"Is that secret more important than life? Besides, she was not the murderer back then. Even if she was sentenced, it would not be long. If you hire a better lawyer, you might not even have to go to jail." Fujiwara Yu couldn't understand that Nakayama Maiko didn't take the initiative.
The reason for the confession was that he still felt that when faced with danger, girls like that would take the initiative to seek police protection.
However, Fujiwara Yuu thought wrong after all. He waited in the room for a long time but still did not hear any movement from the door.
Does anyone really value such a secret more than life?
Fujiwara Yu, who really couldn't wait any longer, chose to take the initiative. Before leaving, he did not forget to close the door gently because he found that while waiting, Miyano Akemi, who had not drank coffee, had fallen asleep on the bed on her side.
He walked along the corridor towards the gym, where Nakayama Maiko and Sugino Takashi's rooms were.
Worried that he would disturb the couple's nighttime activities, he deliberately waited at the door for ten seconds to make sure there were no strange sounds in the house, and then boldly raised his hand to knock on the door.
Boom, boom, boom.
However, after repeatedly knocking on the door twice, no sound came from the house. This made Fujiwara Yu feel an ominous premonition in his heart. He ignored any etiquette and banged the door hard and shouted:
"Mr. Sugino, Miss Nakayama? Are you in there?"
The room was still quiet and there was no sound. Fujiwara Yu's worry reached its peak. He was about to kick the door, but found that the door did not seem to be locked.
Unscrewing the door handle, he noticed that the room was in a mess, as if someone had been fighting here.
"Well…"
Fujiwara Yu noticed Sugino Takashi who was lying on the bedside struggling to get up. He quickly stepped forward to support him and asked:
"Mr. Sugino, what happened? Where is Miss Nakayama?"
"Maiko..." Sugino Takashi only felt that his head was a little unclear. He shook it vigorously and thought of what happened before he fell into coma. He grabbed Takaji Sousuke's arm anxiously and said: "That guy's target is Maiko!
Officer Yingji, please save her quickly!"
"That guy? Is he the one who was fighting with you in the room?"
"That's right, Maiko and I couldn't sleep, so we thought about drinking some red wine to help us sleep. Who knew that I felt a little sleepy after two sips, and Maiko fell asleep directly. Maybe it's because I drank less, so I still feel sleepy.
I was a little awake, and just when I was putting Maiko on the bed, a man suddenly came in from the door, and I started fighting with him...but I couldn't beat him."
Was it another method of sleeping pills? It should be the same person who killed Keiryo Maekawa.
Fujiwara Yu looked at the traces around him. It looked like they were produced when the two were fighting, but there was no blood-stained object at the scene. Could it be that the murderer had taken away the murder weapon?
He held his chin and thought for a while, then asked:
"Then have you seen the murderer's face?"
"No, the murderer wore the same hood as the robber. At that time, I was only focused on protecting Maiko, so I didn't pay attention to other details." Sugino Takashi looked at Maiko who should have been lying on the bed, and lowered his head in annoyance, his voice hoarse.
Said: "It's all my fault for not protecting Maiko. I should have advised her to go to the police officer...it's all my fault."
Fujiwara Yu reached out and patted Sugino Takashi twice on the back. He walked around the room but couldn't get any useful value. It seemed that the murderer was a very cautious person. Moreover, the hotel
The decoration style is very magical. When he entered the bedroom, he discovered that the sound insulation effect of each room was very good, and there were rooms for other activities between the rooms. Even if someone really screamed in the room,
People outside may not be able to hear it.
This also means that the person who invited them here to kill in a live-action script must be the murderer.
After Fujiwara Yu confirmed that there were no missing clues in the house, he looked at Sugino Takashi and said:
"Mr. Sugino, please go ahead and bandage your wound briefly. I'll go look for it in the hotel."
"No, I'm fine. My head doesn't hurt anymore. I'll go with you!" Sugino Takashi stood up from the bed with a firm look. He wanted to find Maiko quickly, because she might still be alive.
Fujiwara Yu didn't say anything after seeing this, and started a new round of carpet search from the second floor of the hotel, but the results were not satisfactory. No figure of Nakayama Maiko was found in the entire hotel.
After hearing the noise, Uchida Ami, who joined the search team, looked at the door worriedly and whispered:
"Officer Takaji, is Maiko also there?"
"It's already very late now. You can stay in the hotel, but don't be alone. I'm alone..."
Before Fujiwara Yuu finished speaking, there was thunder outside the house. If he remembered correctly, the weather forecast did say that there would be a thunderstorm overnight. He couldn't help but frown when he thought about this. It is very dangerous to walk through a large forest during a thunderstorm.
.
Just when he was debating whether to wait until the thunderstorm stopped before setting off, Yamaguchi Jun, who was sitting opposite, looked out the window in horror and screamed:
"Ahhhh! There is someone outside, there is someone outside!!!"
"?"
Everyone looked in the direction pointed by Yamaguchi Jun, and it was completely dark. But when the lightning flashed, they clearly saw a figure standing in the woods outside the window, staring at the dilated pupils.
Their every move.
"Maiko? Is it Maiko?!"
Sugino Takashi stood up excitedly. He stumbled and ran outside the house, followed by the others.
The thunderstorm that was still falling blurred everyone's vision. Before they could see clearly who was standing in front of the woods, they saw Sugino Takashi lying on the ground in a panic, with a look of horror on his face.
Fujiwara Yu raised his eyes and realized that the girl standing in front of the tree was the long-missing Maiko Nakayama. However, she had already lost her breathing and heartbeat. Her eyes were rounded with a ferocious face, and her pale and bloodless lips were slightly open, as if
There was something I wanted to say, but I just didn't have the chance.
He looked at the thunderstorm that would stop for a while and said seriously:
"Everyone go back to the hotel first. I will bring Miss Zhongshan's body back."
"Let me help you." Yuuto Takenaka took the initiative to help Sugino Takashi who was lying on the ground crying.
