Chapter 621 Rumi Wakasa and Shogi

"What do you think of Rumi Wakasa?"

Haibara Ai chewed and swallowed what was in her mouth before answering Kuromu Ren: "A very good person."

Kuroki Ren raised his eyebrows slightly.

Seemingly seeing Kuromu Ren's disbelief, Haihara Ai explained: "She doesn't feel like a bad person to me. What's wrong?"

"...It's rare." Kuroki Jin touched his chin, "It's rare that you give someone such a high evaluation just after watching the first page."

Haiyuan was sad and speechless.

Kuroki Ren added: "But I always feel that she is a little hostile to me. It is obviously the first time we have met."

"Then you give her candy?"

Kuroki Ren smiled brightly: "Let's make friends."

Kuroki Jin didn't know whether he had made friends or not. Since that meeting at school, he had "ran into" Wakasa Rumi several times in different places. He even entered the game and started random matching without thinking, and was matched with Wakasa Rumi.

Same team.

Kuroki Ren: "..."

For a moment I didn’t know whose problem it was.

After getting along with each other several times, Kuroki no longer felt the slightest hint of hostility. The two of them went from being wary of each other to now being much more relaxed in getting along.

But Kuroki Jin still felt ridiculed when he saw Rumi Wakasa looking him up and down with a vague smile.

He could even read the meaning in Rumi Wakasa's eyes: Hehe, did you actually increase your height by two centimeters?

Kuroki Ren looks calm on the outside and roars in his heart: He is only 20! He can still grow!

There were five people in the team, and the other three didn't seem to know each other. Everyone introduced their unimportant names to each other and then entered the dungeon.

Kuroki Ren is a pure bastard. He started the game more because he and Haibara Ai had made an appointment to meet in the game, but Haiyuan seemed to have a visitor suddenly, so he left him alone. Kuroki Ren thought that anyway

I am also free, just killing some time in the game warehouse, maybe I can wait until the guests there leave and Huiyuan plays the game again.

The crime took place in a secret room in the castle. The victim, Tomoda, was a well-known local landowner. He was smashed to death in his study. The murder weapon was a broken vase stained with blood on the ground.

The first person to make the discovery was named Lu Ye. According to him, it was already dinner time and the deceased had not appeared, so he went upstairs to look for someone. When he found the study, he found that the door was locked. After knocking on the door, there was no response and he knocked the door open. Only then did he discover

Tomoda has been killed.

"It's a secret room murder." Kuroki Jin touched his smooth chin, "Not only do we have to find the murderer, but we also have to decipher the secret room techniques. It's difficult."

"What do you think, Wakasa-sensei...Wakasa-sensei?"

"Huh?" Rumi Wakasa came to his senses, and Jin Kuroki followed her gaze, "Is this... shogi?"

A chess board was placed in front of the deceased, with chess pieces staggered on top. It looked like the killing was very brutal.

It's a pity...Kuroki Jin doesn't know how to play shogi.

"I only know the king general. Is the king general going to die in this situation?" Kuroki Jin leaned over and pointed to the king general whose tip was facing away from Tomoda. Shogi does not distinguish colors and only identifies the chess pieces according to their directions. So black is used to identify the pieces.

With Murihi's skill as a three-legged cat, it can be seen that Tomoda's king will be surrounded by his opponent's gold and silver generals.

It's just that it's limited to this.

Kuroki took another look and found that he had no idea, so he ran to the door to study the secret room. As for the other three people accompanying him, they were questioning the three suspects respectively. There was a clear division of labor.

Rumi Wakasa's eyes stayed on the chessboard for a moment. She almost subconsciously touched the chess pieces in her pocket. Unexpectedly, she touched nothing. Only then did she realize that she was still in the game world.

At this time, the other three people also came back after asking for their confessions. Unsurprisingly, the three suspects all had conflicts with the deceased. Their properties had recently been suppressed and annexed by Tomoda, and they were all on the verge of bankruptcy. This time they gathered together.

At the same time, I wanted to ask Tomoda to show his favor.

All three of them chatted with Tomoda individually. The first one to talk was Kano, followed by Asakura and Furue. According to Furue, who was the last to come out, Tomoda was still alive and well when he left.

"Who do you suspect?" Kuroki Ren asked.

"Furujiang left last, so he is more suspicious." One of them replied, he was the person responsible for questioning Furukawa, "I always feel that he is very nervous. This game is really powerful. A person's mental state and expression are very different."

It can be imitated.”

"It's really amazing." Another person sighed: "I just played this game warehouse when I passed by and had a rest. Now I have bought three units at home."

"Me too."

The topic of the three people gradually deviated.

Kuroki had no choice but to knock on his watch: "There are still twenty minutes left, let's solve the case first."

Some simple cases don't leave players very long. For example, in this case, you only have one hour to find clues to solve it from the time you enter the door. It is considered the most basic case. Kuroki Jin has heard Conan talk about it before

The case he solved alone took him three days in the game world, during which he saved and exited many times. It took almost a week to successfully solve the case in the real world.

"The first is the secret room. I have cracked the secret room technique and thus identified the murderer." Kuroki Jin said, "But the key evidence is missing."

"Who is the murderer you targeted?"

Kuroki Ren looked at the person who asked the question: "That's the Luye you asked about."

The man breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I have direct evidence here. I thought I had identified the wrong murderer."

The game is different from the real world. You don't need to gather all the suspects together - of course you can if you want - but you can directly write down the murderer, time and method of committing the crime in the detective manual handed out to everyone when you enter.

If there is a secret room like this case, you also need to write down the secret room method and then submit it.

"There is no such thing as a secret room in the first place." Kuroki Ren said while writing: "I checked the door handle and there was only one impact mark inside the lock. If it was locked from the inside, there should be two lock tongues.

So the door was unlocked from the beginning."

"I think it was Luye who went in to find Tomoda after the conversation with Furue. He had a verbal conflict with him and then killed someone passionately. Then he simply cleaned up and left in a hurry."

"So when he returned to the room to clean up the blood, he found that he had stepped on a fragment of the vase under his feet. When he went to pick up the fragments, he accidentally cut his hand. That's why I thought of searching his room." The player who asked Lu Ye took out

A blood-stained fragment with patterns consistent with the fragments of a vase found at the crime scene.

"Then the case is closed." Kuroki Jin put away his pen, stretched back and was almost frightened to death by Rumi Wakasa who stood behind him at some point.

"...Why are you silent!" Kuroki jumped up and sat back on the sofa, saying speechlessly: "Do you want to write?"

Rumi Wakasa took the pen he handed over and casually wrote two strokes in the manual to prove that she was not cheating, so as not to affect the credibility of the next matching game. As she wrote, she said: "There is one more thing that can prove that Shikano is the murderer.

"

"Um?"

"On the shogi board left by Tomoda, the position of the king is very remote. Normally, when there are a lot of chess pieces on the board, the king should not be moved frequently over long distances."

"oh."

"If we regard the king general as the first row and column, and get rid of the golden general who is about to die, there are only three enemy chess pieces in the five columns, which are vertical 1, horizontal 2, vertical 5, horizontal 6, and vertical

3 crosses 9, according to the fifty-sound chart, it is か, の, う, which is Luye.”

Rumi Wakasa stopped writing: "I'm afraid this is the death message left by the victim."

When time is up, the game is over.
