While driving, Toru Amuro also kept observing the surroundings, but he was mainly looking for surveillance and did not observe the house carefully.
There were very few cars on the road. When he suddenly heard Shiraishi say this, he lowered his speed and glanced in the rearview mirror: "What's the problem?"
"The atmosphere is wrong." Shiraishi replied in a serious tone, "It gives people a very bad feeling."
"..." Toru Amuro felt that Matsuda should be enrolled in "Nature and Science."
However, thinking about the time when they planted bombs with him, Matsuda Kuroye also used a similar "feeling" to help them avoid a disaster, and Toru Amuro finally stopped the car.
Intuition is not unexplainable by science. Maybe Matsuda did observe some abnormalities just now, but the brain did not clearly realize this, so it can only be summarized as "feeling"...
The two parked their car not far from the detached house, put on appropriate disguises to avoid surveillance, and arrived in front of the detached house with a courtyard of more than ten square meters and a "Xishan" nameplate.
They first looked at the windows, but the curtains were closed and they couldn't see clearly what was going on inside.
Toru Amuro thought for a moment and asked Shiraishi to go around to the back of the house, ready to block people at any time, while he pressed the doorbell.
After waiting for more than two minutes, no one opened the door and no one broke the window to escape.
Many of the gates to independent houses are furnished and are high enough that even children can easily climb over them.
Amuro Toru sent a message to inform Shiraishi of the situation, and then the two of them entered the yard and came to the door.
Firmly pressing back Shiraishi's hand that handed over the miniature bomb, Toru Amuro took out the lock picking tool from his pocket.
But these tools were not used - before prying open the door, he tried to twist the doorknob, but the door was unlocked.
During the day, when homeowners are at home, many people do not lock their doors.
But they had already rang the doorbell just now, but no one answered. If the owner of the house hadn't taken a nap too much... maybe Matsuda was right and something was wrong here?
Amuro Toru's expression became serious. He leaned over and looked at the door lock, and found several fresh scratches on it, hidden on the side. It was difficult to see without looking carefully.
"This door was broken open not long ago." Toru Amuro stood up, leaned against the door and listened to the noise, "Be careful when you go in."
There was no ambush behind the door, so the two quickly searched separately, one on the left and the other on the right.
Shiraishi stepped into the corridor, pushed open the study door on the left, and then looked inside for a moment.
This room is quite neat. There is a computer desk in front of the window with a heavy desktop computer on it.
At this time, a middle-aged man was lying down in front of the computer. His back was flat. Shiraishi gently walked around to his side, looked down, and then poked him through the gloves that came from Toru Amuro.
The person is indeed dead.
Next to the corpse was a plate of translucent sashimi.
Shiraishi glanced at it, and then quickly looked up at the computer screen. On the screen was the interface of the "Magic Lovers Alliance" forum.
In the window to be sent below, two lines of bright red text are very conspicuous:
This is the first one
——Shadow Mage
With this message, coupled with the "grandfather" and "granddaughter" mentioned in the mission just now, Shiraishi roughly understood which case this was.
He glanced at the upper right corner of the forum and saw that the user ID of the owner was "Escape King".
Shiraishi freed the corpse's hand, picked up the mouse, and took a cursory look at the forum. Shiraishi discovered that this was indeed a niche community for magicians to communicate.
Most of the people hanging around here are amateur magicians.
But in fact, there are also trumpets of big guys in it. Shiraishi looked through the chat records in the forum and gradually remembered more things.
A year ago, the famous magician Harui Fuden, who was good at escaping, stopped performing magic because he was getting older and his physical strength was not as good as before.
After retiring, he borrowed his granddaughter's account "Yikasama Boy" to browse the forum and found that many people wanted to watch his performance again.
Harujing Fengden hadn't done magic for a long time, and he had itchy hands, plus he didn't want to violate the fans' expectations. After struggling for a few days, he finally held an escape show for the last time.
Before leaving for the performance, the old man left something on his computer:
"Dear friends, I succeeded! What a surprise
——Yikasama Boy·Chunjing Fengchuan"
Such a flag is planned to be sent with one click after the performance is successful.
But unfortunately, this time, the old man could not get off the stage alive.
When his granddaughter Tanaka Takakue was sorting out his belongings, she accidentally saw the chat records on the forum, and then she understood why Harui Fuden suddenly made a comeback.
Although she was very sad, her reason told her not to anger these netizens.
But after scrolling down the page and seeing the forum chat records from the night of the old man’s death, two IDs made strange remarks, which gave Tanaka Takahisa an outlet for all his sadness and anger——
[Escape King: He himself hopes to die on stage (laughs)]
[Disappearing Pani: The old man died in the cold water... (laughing)]
laugh?
...I make you laugh!!
In the original work, Tanaka Takahisa first found the "Escape King" who was the chairman of the forum - the one lying next to Shiraishi - and then killed him.
After that, she used the identity of "Yikasama Boy" and went to the offline gathering of the Magic Lovers Alliance, where she killed the "disappeared Pani".
Now, the escape king is actually dead, but the mission has not failed.
This makes Shiraishi a little confused, unless... Tanaka Takakie didn't kill the person. She just came in, found the person dead, and left a message on the computer with the code name "Shadow Master". Did she miss it?
In this world, it doesn't seem to be that difficult for a man who has some good looks, some wealth, and a bit of a venom to offend several women who want to kill him at the same time.
No, I should say it's very simple...
After roughly looking through the chat history and figuring out the next action plan, Shiraishi left the computer and planned to tell Toru Amuro that there was a corpse here and let him watch and deal with it.
Unexpectedly, when he opened the door and took a step outside, someone suddenly punched him with a sharp punch.
Shiraishi was startled and subconsciously raised his hand to block. He reacted quite quickly, and the sneak attack hit his palm squarely, causing him to take a step back.
Immediately afterwards, a glimmer of blood passed before his eyes.
Of course the blood is not Shiraishi's.
Toru Amuro stopped chasing and covered the hand that had just hit Shiraishi, blood dripping from his fingers.
He was silent for a moment and said without words: "You actually..." Hidden a blade in your hand during a fight?
Gin is not so unfashionable!
"..." Shiraishi took another half step back and distanced himself. His lowered hand hid slightly behind his back, and the steel claws that formed a knife quickly and silently retracted the cuffs of his sleeves.
This is the hook that comes with the wire skill. You can usually adjust the sharpness. After all, it is produced by the system. It will not be broken and its hardness is very guaranteed.
Shiraishi often uses a steel hook as a knife. He was attacked by a sneak attack just now, so he subconsciously threw it out.
At this time, looking at the empty bag at Toru Amuro's feet, Shiraishi probably knew why he was hiding outside the door to attack.
But no matter what, he was acting in legitimate defense and would never be wronged.
He looked down at the amount of blood and felt that it was not fatal, so Shiraishi took the lead and looked at the opposite side in confusion and condemnation: "?"
"..." Toru Amuro took out the gauze from his pocket and pressed the cut hole. Then he took a deep breath and said in a calm tone, "I found this bag in the bedroom."
He kicked the unique black backpack next to his feet.
This is exactly the one the woman who killed Calvados was carrying on the surveillance camera.
Toru Amuro simply explained:
"I searched around just now, but I still didn't find you. In the end, this was the only room left.
"I remember that when you first entered the house, you entered this room. You thought something had happened, so you planned to stay there for a while..."
Toru Amuro attacked when he heard footsteps approaching.
This kind of sneak attack is like whack-a-mole, trying to subdue the opponent the moment the "unknown person" pokes his head out, so he hits the cards very accurately.
He remembered that Jinpei Matsuda's father was once a professional boxer, and Jinpei Matsuda was also very good at boxing.
By analogy, if he is also a man from the Matsuda family, Matsuda Kuroye's boxing level should not be bad - if he makes a mistake in his judgment, he will indeed be a passive and slow-working Matsuda Kuroye. People who practice boxing are all strong, and he himself
It will be able to withstand the force appropriately, and it won't be a big deal if it hits you a little bit.
But Toru Amuro never expected that judging from Matsuda Kuroye's block just now, he was not good at boxing, but his methods were very unique, very... insidious?
Why is this happening?
Is it because the father loves his younger son more and cannot bear to train him harshly?
Fortunately, I stopped my strength in time after recognizing the person, otherwise today's hand...
Shiraishi looked at Toru Amuro lowering his head and silently wrapping the bandage, feeling a little guilty and a little lucky. He remembered that Toru Amuro's combat power level was not low. If this punch really hit him, it would be troublesome if he was knocked back to his body, even if there was smoke.
If you don't cover up, you will be regarded as a weirdo who "suddenly performs magic in front of your colleagues".
He looked down at the blood on the ground, took out a bottle of unbranded hemostatic agent and handed it to Toru Amuro, and then wanted to find some more bleach.
But then I thought about it, the organization's logistics should be able to handle this kind of thing, and they were far more professional than him, so I gave up.
Shiraishi pointed to the room: "I found something inside, which may be helpful to our search."
