Jiang Xia looked at Mao Lilan's slender hands, and then at the falling brick powder: "..."
I would like to remind the ghosts later that if you encounter Mao Lilan, remember to avoid a head-on conflict, so as not to turn a good detective copy into a magical martial arts movie.
…
The five people quickly entered the school, slipped into the building quietly, and headed to the activity room of the "Mysterious Phenomena Research Society" on the first floor.
There are no lights in the corridor, and the only lighting is the dim streetlight that shines through the window.
The group of people stepped on the creaky floor and walked to the door of the activity room.
When I opened the door, I saw that there was no one in the room, except for the computer in the corner, which was shining with a faint light.
"…Where is Miyano?"
Several high school students looked around, a little wary.
Jiang Xia walked to the most conspicuous computer and looked down at the screen.
In front of the jumping cursor, two lines of pale words were written:
[The person who opens the seventh door will become a sacrifice in the ceremony
——The Magician after School]
…
"...Sacrifice?"
Kudo Shinichi also came close to the computer. When he saw the signature, he had a bad feeling in his heart and whispered to Jiang Xia: "Is she supposed to be..."
Halfway through the conversation, the door to the activity room suddenly made a clanging sound and someone opened it from the outside.
The high school students gathered in front of the computer quickly turned their heads.
I saw two more figures beside the door.
Senior Sakura Sakura and the consultant teacher came in, raised their heads and saw them, and were slightly startled:
"You also came to see that 'death ceremony'?"
After a pause, seeing the confused expressions on the faces of several classmates, Sakura Ruriko seemed to understand something and explained:
"I just received a phone call. The caller was probably a chuunibyou. He mysteriously said that a 'death ceremony' would be held here and he asked me to come and visit. I thought someone was coming to cause trouble in our department... You guys
What? Why are you gathered here?"
Seeing that her eyes were just on him, Mao Lilan could only say:
"Miss Miyano called just now and said that she discovered the truth about the 'Seventh Mysterious' and asked us to gather here."
Sakura Ruriko raised her eyebrows, and just as she was about to say something, a flashlight suddenly flashed across the corridor.
A loud voice sounded: "Who is there?!"
Jiang Xia looked over Senior Yingshu's shoulder and saw a familiar guard.
——Ever since they tried to break open the door to enter the "Incredible Place" during the day, the guard has been wandering around them and watching them until they get out of school.
Unexpectedly, they were so destined to be together. Not long after they returned to school, the guard came again.
…
The doorman was a tall man. He was holding a cigarette in his mouth and an anti-riot stick as he approached and found a group of students at the door.
He put down his stick and looked at the people suspiciously:
"What are you doing here at night? You are not allowed to wander into the school at night!"
"It's not just wandering around. We just lost someone and we are looking for him." Jiang Xia said like an ordinary player, "Have you seen Miyano-senpai - that brown-haired mixed-race girl."
The guard frowned, turned around and walked out: "I haven't seen it before. I'll look for it. You guys should go home quickly!"
Jiang Xia followed naturally:
"Since we are looking for someone, why not go to the old school building together and have a look - I think she might be there."
The guard glanced at him and wanted to drive him away, but his lips moved and in the end he just snorted without making a sound.
Several other high school students saw this and quickly followed, nodding in agreement, hoping to convince the guard. Gu Zhao
The previous "Six Mysteries", except for the ginkgo tree, were all distributed in the old school building. Now, "The Magician after School" is related to the "Seventh Mystery".
In other words, if it was really the "after school magicians" who took away Haibara Ai, then they were probably also in the old school building - Jiang Xia's judgment was not wrong.
…
The guard looked at the tails falling behind him and became impatient: "The old school building is about to be demolished. It is a dangerous building and entry is prohibited!"
"But look." Jiang Xia suddenly noticed something. He pointed over there through the window in the corridor, "Someone has gone in."
"...?"
The guard stopped and looked along his direction.
Everyone else also turned their heads.
Through two windows, they saw the corridor of the school building next door - the classroom door at the end of the corridor was open, revealing a faint firelight inside. The light was yellowish and rippled slightly with the breeze, like a fire lit by a candle.
.
Kudo Shinichi and Hattori Heiji saw the location of the classroom clearly and were slightly startled: "Isn't this the 'biology classroom that cannot be opened'?!" - Legend has it that if you come to look for things at night, you will see someone in the room.
The "first incredible thing" about hanging!
They quickly ran to the window and looked into the classroom against the window.
From a distance, I saw a rough six-pointed star painted on the floor of the biology classroom, with a candle placed on each star corner, illuminating an area.
And directly above the candle, a pair of legs hangs quietly.
Several people moved their eyes dullly and saw a hanging man hanging in the middle of the biology classroom.
——"Miyano Shiho" hangs in the room like a set, her soft school uniform skirt sticking to her knees, motionless.
Besides, there was another person in the room.
The man stood next to the corpse, with his back to everyone. He was dressed in linen robes, holding a lit candle in his hand, and his hair was as messy as a hemp rope, looking like a wig.
As if aware of the peek from behind, the mysterious man suddenly turned around, revealing an extremely terrifying mask on his face.
The next second, the door clicked shut in front of a group of people, cutting off the sight.
"..."
The air fell into dead silence for a moment.
After a while, everyone recovered from the shocking scene and rushed towards the old school building next door.
…
The two sides are not far apart.
Sprinting at full speed, dozens of seconds later, they had bypassed the winding corridors, entered the old school building, and saw the door of the "Unopenable Biology Classroom" from a distance.
Jiang Xia put her hand on the door handle and pulled hard.
The door didn't move at all.
Hattori Heiji reached out his hand and tried in disbelief, but he couldn't pull it either. When he thought that someone was committing a crime in front of him, even though it was just a game, he became anxious and looked at the guard next to him: "Where is the key?!"
The guard was yelled at by him, and his voice suddenly became louder than his: "If I had the key, would this classroom be called the 'Unopenable Biology Classroom'?"
Hattori Heiji:"……"
It makes sense...
Jiang Xia knocked on the hard door: "Break it open."
Hattori Heiji nodded.
Just as they were about to exert their strength together, both of them suddenly had a hand on their shoulders.
Jiang Xia was startled and turned around.
They saw Mao Lilan standing behind them with a solemn expression: "Give me a moment, let me try."
Jiang Xia: "..."
He looked at Mao Lilan's legs, then looked at the classroom door a little worriedly, and took a few steps back.
