This room seems to be the boss's office. There is a door on the inside, which is probably a bedroom.
Lying on the floor in the middle of the office was a man covered in blood. His chest was not rising at all and he looked like he was out of breath.
Next to the corpse, a skinny, ragged man was holding a knife, his back to the door, breathing heavily.
Shiraishi's heart skipped a beat and he quickly took a look at the tasks related to Sherlock Holmes' journey.
As a result, the mission not only did not fail.
Instead, it was completed directly.
"?"
Under Shiraishi's gaze, a new task was refreshed:
[Free the wandering souls riddled with resentment]
"..."
Although I don't know what happened.
But it's always right to knock down the big brother with the knife first.
Thinking of this, Shiraishi flicked his closed hand slightly, and the anesthetic bullet silently passed through a parabola, smashing into pieces at the feet of the person holding the knife.
The other party didn't know whether he was hungry or tired, so his reaction was a little slow.
When he came to his senses and wanted to run, his hands and feet were already weak and he fell to the ground.
Shiraishi avoided the area affected by the tranquilizer bomb and carefully walked into the house.
The body on the ground faced the window.
Shiraishi walked around to see who it was, and finally recognized that it was a middle-aged man named Juhu Kento - he had just met him in the hall tonight, and he was also here to participate in the Sherlock Holmes tour.
After looking at it for a few times, Shiraishi's eyes were quickly attracted by something else.
——Behind the spacious desk, there was a translucent person squatting there, looking down at another person on the ground.
After being in this world for so many days, Shiraishi has already passed the stage where his breathing becomes stagnant when he sees ghosts.
He walked over with a normal expression.
The middle-aged man with squinting eyes and a big nose behind the desk... No, male ghost, when he heard the noise, he turned around and glanced at Shiraishi.
Then he pointed to Boss Jingu who was lying on the ground: "He seems to have a heart attack."
Shiraishi lowered his head and looked at a small medicine bottle lying on the table.
Combined with the noises I heard before, maybe the boss of Jingu was frightened when he saw the murder scene?
Shiraishi picked up the medicine, studied the instructions, and tentatively put a pill to the boss's mouth.
This fat boss may have been destined to die, or he may have had a strong desire to survive, so he actually took the medicine in a daze.
The boss's heartbeat was still normal, his complexion gradually recovered, and he seemed to be surviving successfully.
Shiraishi pushed him again and made him lie flat on the ground.
When he entered the room just now, Shiraishi caught a glimpse of a camera installed in the corner of the room.
He is relatively sensitive to this kind of thing, after all, it affects whether most system props can be used normally.
Therefore, just to be on the safe side, Shiraishi never stopped looking at the ghost.
There is a column for recent chat in the chat bar.
When doing simple first aid, Shiraishi blocked his hand with his body and poked a few words into the chat column.
There were no strange noises coming from the surroundings. Only the old-fashioned ghost could hear what Shiraishi wanted to say:
"what's the situation?"
…
Although Tojukento who died in the office was indeed a Sherlock Holmes fan, he was not here to get a prize today, he was here to kill people.
Of course, if conditions permit, after killing the person, he will also want to take away the prize.
The birth of murderous intent is actually very simple.
——Boss Kanaya collaborated with Toshiaki Fujisawa, who came to join the Sherlock Holmes tour today, and published a book called "The Ridicule of Irene Adela".
When Tojukento saw this book, he was furious. In his opinion, it was impossible for Irene to laugh at Sherlock Holmes. This was completely blasphemous to the Sherlock Holmes series.
So he wanted to kill these two bastards who made the characters OOC, and prepared two subtle tricks.
However, when I came to this room and counted the evidence against Boss Jingu in detail, and when I was about to kill him, a murderer who was on the run suddenly burst in through the side door.
Numabuchi Kiichiro was imprisoned in the mountains and starved for several days, and his mind was not normal.
He originally wanted to take the stairs and bypass the lighted room.
Unexpectedly, before turning the corner, Toshiken's voice suddenly came from the room.
He listened blankly for two seconds, then suddenly rushed in like crazy and killed the person.
Boss Jin Gu watched this scene with fear and had no idea what was happening.
After the murderer pulled out the kitchen knife and directed his cold gaze at him, Boss Jingu's shock level reached the critical point. He clutched his chest and suddenly fell down, without even having time to stuff first aid medicine into his mouth.
…
"The Toshiken people happened to be one of my targets. Unexpectedly, I was lucky and they bumped into each other directly." Ghost said in a business-like tone.
With that said, he floated towards the corpse as if in a hurry.
Shiraishi stood up with some doubts, pretended to look for wet wipes on the desk, and peeked out of the corner of his eye.
I saw the ghost coming to Toshiken's side, pulling out a bunch of frightened souls from the corpse, stuffing the lumps into his mouth with disgust, and eating them.
"..."
After eating, he burped, and the whole ghost seemed to have swelled a lot. The ghost lowered his head, and entered the body of Numabuchi Kiichiro, who was stunned, and then controlled his body to stand up.
Shiraishi subconsciously took a step back and prepared to press the prop shortcut key.
This ghost...
It seems more sinister than what I've seen before?
The Q version assistant detected murderous intent. It poked its head out from the corner of the light screen that had not yet been closed, and raised the speech bubble seriously:
[Customers are all God]
"..." I just looked at it, I didn't really fight. Shiraishi looked at "Numabuchi Kiichiro" again.
"Numabuchi Kiichiro" had already pulled out a knife from nowhere.
The ghost seems to be very familiar with this place and seems to hang out here frequently.
"Numabuchi Kiichiro" pushed the knife away with a click and pointed the back of his head at the surveillance camera, reminding Shiraishi: "There are only cameras in this office to prevent burglars. There are no bugs installed. You can say whatever you want directly."
explain."
There are really too many things Shiraishi wants to say.
He had no idea how an ordinary rescue mission could suddenly become so like a ghost movie.
He pretended to be vigilant, but actually he was a little vigilant. He took a few steps back so that the camera could not capture his mouth: "The task you want to entrust is very long and very troublesome? I remember you just said that they are one of your targets."
one."
"Yes, there are six people in total, and there are four left." "Numabuchi Kiichiro" dug out the wallet in Todo Jukento's pocket, placed it on the corpse's heart, and stabbed it through with a knife.
Bai Shi looked at his actions and was slightly startled.
etc.
This murderous symbol of money and heart, coupled with this murderer with long hair and strange appearance...
Shiraishi seemed to know which case it was.
After doing the math, it seems that the time it takes is indeed not too short.
Seeing that the ghost had completed puncturing the wallet and heart, and was about to call it a day, Shiraishi quickly stopped him: "Wait, don't take off your vest yet, let's talk about the details."
