Vodka: "..." Of course, the most important thing is that Nachi Jingo's suspicion is too great. From beginning to end, almost all the evidence clearly points to him. And according to Uzo's habit of reversing, inversely
Come to think of it, the real culprit is probably someone else!
Looking at the coat and hat of the deceased who were thrown aside, Vodka realized that he actually had an idea, but he was not sure.
Just as he was thinking about it, a voice came from beside him: "Keep talking, your idea is correct."
"!"
Vodka turned his head and saw Jiang Xia - this terrible script writer seemed to have guessed his thoughts from the changes in his eyes.
Vodka listened to his words of encouragement and couldn't help but murmur in his heart: When Uzo doesn't reveal his true nature, he really looks like a good senior, much easier to talk to than his elder brother... Wait, stop it! You must always remember -
Uzo relies on this seemingly righteous appearance to trick unfortunate people one after another. The friendlier he looks, the more dangerous he is!
Vodka touched the goosebumps on his arms and moved away from Jiang Xia.
Then he turned to look at Yoko Kinoshita who was very close at hand, suppressed his excitement and asked: "Ms. Yoko, I heard you just said that when you went shopping, you ever met the deceased at the door?"
When Yoko Kinoshita saw the serious look of this "Jiang Xia boy", he couldn't help but sigh that Jiang Xia had a good vision in recruiting a boy. Regardless of his ability, at least this person had a very serious attitude.
She nodded: "Yes."
Facing the lovely idol Kinoshita Yoko, Vodka's mood was much better than when he was next to Jiang Xia just now, and his thoughts became more vivid. He said seriously like a serious detective: "When you meet him, see
Have you ever seen his face?"
"Ah?" Kinoshita Yoko was startled, recalled carefully, and said hesitantly, "Well... I didn't notice. His room was right at the end of the corridor, next to the stairs. So after he came out of the room, he went straight downstairs and stayed.
The time was short and we didn’t speak.”
Vodka became more confident when he heard this and nodded calmly:
"The real time of death of the deceased may be earlier than you think.
"After the murder, the murderer took off the deceased's watch, put it on and returned to the hotel. Then he sneaked into his room, found the deceased's coat and hat, put them on, and appeared in front of you as if he was still alive.
"
He said solemnly: "In other words, the person you met in the corridor was not the deceased, but the murderer who had just killed someone."
"?!" Kinoshita Yoko recalled that she had passed by the real murderer without knowing it, and she shuddered silently, feeling like she was listening to a ghost story.
But she looked at Jiang Xia, and then at the little girl who had just slapped the door bolt of the shrine, and gradually felt relieved.
Kinoshita Yoko secretly moved next to Jiangxia and Toyama Kazuha, and secretly stood between them, feeling wrapped in a sense of security again.
Only then did he think about Vodka's reasoning and said to him from a distance: "So that's it."
Vodka: "...?"
...It was obviously his hard-earned reasoning, why did Miss Yoko move to Uzo's side?!
...You should keep your eyes open when looking at Jiang Xia, Miss Yoko!!
Just as he was thinking about it, Jiang Xia suddenly looked at him thoughtfully.
Then he put his hand on Kinoshita Yoko's shoulder, and his voice was gentler than ever before, like a lover's whisper: "Don't worry, we are all here and we won't let the murderer touch you."
Kinoshita Yoko felt a surge of righteousness coming from his palm. She looked at this reliable young man who had helped her throw two stalkers like sacks, and nodded with emotion: "Yeah!"
"..."
The night was dark, and Vodka's face suddenly twisted, as if he had just swallowed the stone lion next to him alive.
Fortunately, his back was facing the searchlight, and his sunglasses took up less than half of his face, so no one noticed anything strange about him for the time being.
Others are still immersed in the information given by Vodka, the "detective assistant".
Otaki Police Department touched his chin and tried to piece together the situation: "In other words, the process of this murder case is probably like this - the murderer first killed the deceased here, and then pretended to be the deceased and returned to the hotel.
"After you thought that 'the deceased was still alive at 7:10,' he returned to the scene, threw the disguise watch, hat and clothes here, and wrote 'handsome guy' on the ground, blaming the blame on Mr. Nachi.
"After that, Mr. Nachi came to the scene and found that the person he had an appointment with was dead. So in panic, he changed the 'handsome guy' on the ground to a 'stone lion' and wanted to blame it on the assistant who lived at the shrine.
?”
Vodka came back to his senses and nodded silently: Yes, this kind of complicated situation with twists and turns is more like the plot Uzo likes to see.
As Suzuki Sonoko listened, she felt as if her eyes had turned into mosquito coils: "...It's so troublesome."
The concentration of detectives around Mao Lilan was higher. After being trained for a long time, she actually followed the train of thought, and then she had a question: "But why did the real murderer write a death message like 'handsome guy'? - Nachi
It’s not like the gentleman doesn’t have a name. Wouldn’t it be more accurate to write down the spelling of his name? This would make it easier for accidental injuries.”
Vodka was not in a very good mood and glanced at Nachi Shingo coldly: "Who knows what that person was thinking, maybe the murderer is his fan."
...Of course, it is more likely that Uzo deliberately designed this to mislead him into thinking that Uzo was exposed, observe his reaction, and wait for an opportunity to take revenge. Tsk, this bastard who fishes for law enforcement.
The Otaki Police Department has now taken a new look at him. After hearing this casual sentence, they actually took it seriously: "In other words, the murderer is actually a groupie?"
He scanned the suspicious people around him and found that most of them were crew members.
And the only person who fits the criteria of "star-chasing" seems to be a fan of Shingo Naji...
"Huh?" Mao Lilan suddenly met his eyes. She was stunned for a moment, then suddenly came back to reality, "It's not me!"
"Of course it's not you." Jiang Xia brought the police's wandering thoughts back on track, "I wrote 'handsome guy' not to express my love for Mr. Nachi, but because under the circumstances, the real murderer could only change the word "bloody" to '
handsome guy'."
"Changed to?" Several people keenly discovered the key point in his words. After being stunned, they gradually understood what it was and said in surprise, "The word "blood" has been changed more than once?!"
Jiang Xia nodded: "Don't you think the word 'イ' in the word 'ニマイメ' which refers to a handsome guy is particularly crowded? If you remove it and the previous words, the word "blood" will become 'マメ' - 'bean'
