Danish, my name?What the hell is he talking about? "And you are really standing at the center of the world now." Mercury C continued, "Every steel frame protruding from the 'Center of the World' sign in Pineapple House is exactly thirty degrees apart. So, here That's true north." Mercury C stepped onto the steel frame that was exactly opposite to the one I climbed up. "The direction of that 's' is exactly 60 degrees different from true north, so it should be on the extension line of this window lattice." He stepped on the second steel frame from the "True North" steel frame to the right. "There is an 'a' on the opposite bank of the Star River, through the farmland behind it, and the final letter 'g' on the mountain in the distance. These letters have been guarded by the police. Then follow the 'g' 'Continue to extend, and at the other end about 20,000 kilometers away is Greenland. And the official language of Greenland is Danish. Stretching the word 'onsdag' found in this mountain range 10,000 times, the letter 'g' is Just enough to reach the inland area of ​​Greenland. This shows that the overhead map engraved on this house is a scale of 1:10,000. Not only can you find 'onsdag' on the extension line of the direction indicated by the window lattice, but the remaining eleven directions There are also words arranged with letters arranged at equal intervals, and these words can also be stretched 10,000 times, and finally they can reach the countries that use this language."

Twelve words in twelve directions. Mercury C took out the notes from his pocket and unfolded them in front of me.Twelve words had been written on it.I finally woke up. "Ah, you didn't run into the woods just now to hide from the police, but to investigate this?" "Of course. How could I run away?" "But you found out so much content at once? That's amazing." "I got a little help from the policeman who was after me." "...Really." Those policemen must have been beaten badly.I started poring over his notes (see Figure 5). Due north is the word “оtмaчивaние”, which is Russian.Turn thirty degrees clockwise from there, and the words lined up in that direction are also “оtмaчивaние”, which means "wet and peel off".

Then turn clockwise to the direction of the sixty-degree angle, where the Greenlandic Danish "onsdag" is arranged, which is "Wednesday"; the direction of the ninety-degree angle is the English "outrider" of the United States of America, which is "the pioneer" ; The direction of the 120-degree angle is the Chilean Spanish "ovario", which means "ovary/ovary", and the 150-degree direction is the Kiribati language "onobwi" of the Republic of Kiribati, which means "sixty"; The direction of the 180-degree angle is the Bahasa Indonesian "olak-alik", which means "repeat"; the direction of the 210-degree angle is the Filipino "oktubere" in the Philippines, which means "October"; The direction is Malagasy "oviana" in Madagascar, which means "when"; the direction of 270 degrees is Spanish “orquesta” in Spain, which means "orchestral music"; the direction of 300 degrees is Mongolia The Mongolian “одоо” means "now"; the last is the Chinese "26th" in the People's Republic of China in the direction of 330 degrees, which seems to mean "26th".Why is the only word in Chinese that doesn’t start with “O”? With doubts, I stepped onto the steel frame at a 330-degree angle and walked to the edge of the roof. Looking down, I saw that on the ground in the front left corner, Two heavy boards at right angles.I walked along the edge to observe, and finally confirmed my thoughts.The two planks that are at right angles are part of this overhead map. "That's really nice." I said to myself.To take a lot of measurements in the mountains, and to arrange these many letters... Is there really someone who will do this kind of thing at the expense of exhaustion?Is it really worth doing all this hard work?

Of course it's because it makes sense. "Wet and Peel" "Wet and Peel" "Wednesday" "Pioneer" "Ovary" "Sixty" "Repeat" "October" "When" "Orchestral" "Now" "Twenty-Sixth" "? How could the combination of these words make sense. But whoever lined up the words must have put some meaning into them, I thought wearily.And why is "wet and peel off" a word in Russian, what are they using this word for? Could it be... I think.Just like the word "Wednesday" has a wonderful overlap with my existence. Could it be that the two "peel off after getting wet" refer to the two "Diekong Temple" entering the Pineapple House?I don't know Russian, and my Japanese is by no means impeccable.So maybe there really is some correspondence that I'm not aware of.And if the repetition of "peel off after getting wet" refers to "Brother Diekong Temple", then the remaining nine words may also refer to a certain detective... Even if it is not a detective, it may be the person involved in this incident. One of the characters.

In this way, doesn't "Hongo Taxi Taxi" correspond to the word "repeat"?Although the rest of the words do not have such an obvious correspondence as between the word "wet and peel off" and the Diekongsi brothers, it is also possible that the person who arranged the words designed various correspondences.Among them, only my name is directly spelled out, and the correspondence between other words and characters is somewhat tactful and jumpy.My intuition tells me that this idea itself is not wrong.So, is there really anything to be found down the line?And, I thought, those detectives had names so odd that it couldn't possibly be their real names, so maybe the twelve words corresponded to their real names.These correspondences may even be hidden in their birthplaces, birthdays or other personal information... I was immersed in my own thinking, but Mercury C spoke beside me.

"Let me remind you first, it is impossible to find meaning in these twelve words." What? "I know you think that since 'Wednesday' has something to do with you, the other words must also have something to do with someone." "How is it possible..." I turned to Mercury C and said, "You look like Hongo Taxi, doesn't it correspond to one of the words?" Mercury C smiled and said, "Ah, it really is. Haha." What happened, didn't he notice it?I feel a little weak.At this time, Mercury C said confidently: "But it must be a coincidence, and it doesn't matter at all." "A coincidence?" "The murderer must have hoped to create a coincidence to mislead your thinking, so he put out these words casually. You Look at you, don’t you just fall into the murderer’s thinking trap? Words contain all kinds of meanings, and as long as you put your mind to it, you can conjure up all kinds of meanings. You’ve read too much, you’ve read too much, Didn’t I tell you, don’t read those strange contexts.”

Hitting the weak spot!He said it again! "Then tell me, why did the murderer take such pains to arrange such a large project?" "Of course it's because the murderer wants you to understand the circle drawn by the blood as the letter 'O', so he's so desperate." "...But isn't the combination of these twelve words meaningless?" "There is no meaning, but there is intent." "this is……" "Just to make you read the round bloodstains as 'O'." Isn't that what it originally meant? "That's not its original meaning." Mercury C seemed to understand my heart, he said, "This is not the letter 'O', nor is it a simple round bloodstain. It is '0', the zero of the number. "

"what?" "Come here and have a look." Said, Mercury C took out a few photos from his butt pocket. "I got it from the police." What does come along mean?But I didn't ask him, and reasoning according to the context, it probably meant "snatch it over". Another context. I walked back to the "center of the world" along the steel frame.Through the glass under my feet, I can see Baji and others.They were sitting on the couch and looking up at us too.Baji met my gaze and waved to me.I decided to ignore him. "Look at this." I took the photo, which seemed to be the gravel ground in the backyard of Fengli House. "Take a closer look." Urged on by Mercury C, I began to examine the three photos carefully. "Did you see it?" "Yes." Yes, I saw it.What is written on it is not words, but numbers. "On the night of the incident, there was a rain in this mountain. But it only stopped for a while." Then the numbers were left in the yard...to be exact, the traces left after the numbers were removed.I get it, after dying in the dark hospital, someone in the yard spelled out a row of numbers out of wood, a row of ten digits starting with a zero.Perhaps someone saw the numbers made of wood and took them all away, leaving only the "0" in the center of the pineapple.After removing the logs that make up the numbers, the man planned to disguise the "0" as the letter "O" in order to hide the "0", which is why he went into the mountains to arrange such a huge puzzle.He even reused some of the wood he had removed, the four on top of Twenty's head.Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, the remaining wood must have been used for the letters in the forest.Moreover, those woods are very heavy, so they were probably placed closer to the Pineapple House.But the rain that had stopped before being removed fell on the figures made of wood, causing the wood to leave marks on the gravel, and these marks were photographed and placed in front of me.The nine numbers, together with the "0" at the beginning of the pineapple, form a ten-digit sequence. "0" "7" "7" "8" "4" "5" "×" "×" "×" "×".This is probably a set of phone numbers including the area code. I still remember the phone number starting with 0778-45, which is Xixiao Youyou's phone number.Therefore, this 0778-45×××× must also be the number of a landline in Xixiao Town.

I looked up and saw that Mercury C had handed me the phone.I took it and pressed the first few digits. "Mercury, have you already made that call?" Mercury C just smiled and didn't answer. I select the dialed number on the Mercury phone.Durrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... There was a signal tone waiting to be answered, and then it seemed to be switched to a voice message recorded on the phone.A man's voice said, "Hi, I'm Mitamura." Mitamura!Could it be Saburo Mitamura? Isn't that the dark hospital? "When you heard this message, Saburo had been brutally killed. The murderer was Toru Taniguchi. If you are Toru Taniguchi, please leave your confession after hearing the signal tone. If you are someone else, please leave your eulogy."

I put the phone away and hit the hook button. "Ah, idiot, why don't you leave a eulogy for such a rare opportunity." Mercury C said. "What is this, a prank?" I was in deep confusion.Wait, wait... But, where to wait until when, even if people are willing to wait, I don't know what to do next.By the way, what are you waiting for?Still, I'd like to wait.Although I can't understand the deep meaning of it at all. "Is this true?" I randomly asked a question to organize my thoughts. "Well, but it depends on the authenticity of what you are asking." Mercury C avoided my question, and I asked again: "Didn't the name of the real murderer be mentioned in the phone recording? Is Toru Taniguchi really the murderer?" But who is this Toru Taniguchi?Why did such an inexplicable proper noun pop up all of a sudden!

But even I could be forgiven for not knowing.Because I just came to Fukui from Tokyo, and although I have already entered the interior of Pinea House, I haven't asked anyone yet.At best, he was just being troubled by famous detectives. But Mercury C, who came with me, said: "Toru Taniguchi was the one who abducted the seventeen-year-old Saburo Mitamura. That was twenty years ago." "What is that... an event that actually happened?" "That's the crux of the matter." "What do you mean?" "Saburo Mitamura suddenly disappeared on a certain day twenty years ago, on the morning of July 26." "Twenty-six days? Isn't that the one, just now..." Mercury C interrupted me with a wave of his hand and said, "Idiot, don't tell you to stop tangling with those twelve made-up words. I repeat, that 'Wednesday' is also completely coincidental and has no meaning at all. go to hell!" Mercury C completely ignored the blow that he was on the top of a mountain and cursed me to die on the highest roof of Fengliju, and continued: "Twenty years ago, on the morning of July 26, Saburo was in I woke up at Seto’s house in Nishigaki Town, and went to a nearby shrine to do radio gymnastics with my younger brothers Kento and Kanji, who are elementary school students.” "What radio gymnastics?" "At that time, children would gather together with their elder brothers or fathers according to their region, and exercise along with the music on the radio." "Morning? Is the time fixed?" "six thirty." "Six thirty?! Is that something that happened during World War II? It doesn't seem right, it was twenty years ago." "Most elementary school students are still continuing." "Huh? The Japanese are too powerful. Do they dance around with iron bars when they do exercises?" "How is it possible, idiot foreigner. The so-called exercise is nothing more than stretching the muscles." "Oh. Anyway, it sounds like it will help prevent juvenile delinquency." "Then, just as Hyunto and Kanji finished radio gymnastics and lined up for the person in charge to stamp their attendance cards, Saburo suddenly disappeared. There were about thirty residents of the area concentrated there at the time, but who I haven't seen the last whereabouts of Saburo either." "Has the murderer asked for a ransom?" "No. He disappeared for seventy-one days. On the seventy-second day, that is, on the morning of October 5th, the members of Sandamura's family suddenly found Sanlang lying on the bed in their bedroom, sound asleep." "What about Saburo's own testimony?" "He only remembered the name of that person. It was Toru Taniguchi. But he did not give any testimony about Taniguchi's age and appearance. Apart from Taniguchi's name, Saburo has no memory of the seventy-one days he disappeared." "how come……" "That must be him lying. If I had been there at that time, I would never have let his lie get away with it." Mercury C had that smirk that almost licked his lips in excitement again. "If you do it, maybe he will say something that doesn't exist at all, so let's forget it." "...The clothes on Sanlang's body are the same as the clothes he wore on the morning when he disappeared. There is no feeling of wandering in the mountains for seventy-one days. Those clothes were washed very clean, and there was no stain on Sanlang's body. But There are some more scars, which are the traces of the operation." Was he involved in the organ trade? "What entrails were taken from him?" "The cecum." "Ok?" "I said it was the cecum, the appendix." "Oh. But isn't that a normal operation? It must have been removed. Was it performed during his disappearance?" "seems like it." Could it be that "Taniguchi Toru" sent Mitamura Saburo who was suffering from appendicitis to the hospital and paid him for the operation?If it is an irregular army that kidnaps important government officials, it is okay to say, can the victims of this kind of civilian kidnapping be treated in the same way?And the murderer didn't seem to ask the family members to pay the ransom, so he probably kidnapped Saburo for the purpose of playing around.Did Saburo take the initiative to erase his memory because he was insulted by the pervert? "Have you checked the medical records of each hospital?" "Yes, there are, but it seems that no patient suspected of Mitamura Saburo has been found." "Then did you investigate the doctor named 'Taniguchi Toru'?" "The police also conducted investigations from this entry point, but there was no doctor whose name was 'Taniguchi Toru'." "What about the medical students?" "I don't know that." "It is also possible that the operation was performed by someone with a license to practice medicine abroad. In short, Saburo had undergone appendicitis surgery during the kidnapping. In this way, the possibility that the kidnapping was a lie fabricated by Mitamura Saburo disappears. Apart from the traces of the appendicitis operation, are there any other changes on San Lang?" "Compared with the results of the physical examination in high school in May of the same year, Saburo in October grew five centimeters taller and gained seven kilograms in weight." "Growing up so fast, it seems that he has been healthy during the kidnapping. Did he leave trauma such as mental shadow?" "I don't know if that situation was caused by PTSD, but after Saburo came back, there seemed to be strange rumors against him among several of his friends. It was said that Saburo's personality before his disappearance and after his return became completely different. .” "Why are you different from each other?" "It's just that his character suddenly became very stable." "...In other words, he has grown up, right? Like an ordinary human being." "I don't know. Some people even say that Saburo Santa was hijacked by a UFO, and the one sent back is his clone." clone? I thought of those four fingers that resembled my left middle finger.If those fingers were harvested from my clone, were they also done by the aliens who made the Saburo Mitamura clone? "Has anyone seen a UFO?" "How could something like that exist?" That must be the imagination of those people... Is the person who copied Saburo Mitamura in Fukui 20 years ago the same person as the person who copied four of my fingers?And is this character the "Taniguchi Toru" mentioned by Saburo Mitamura?Was he also the one who sexually assaulted Shao?Could it be that "Taniguchi Toru" is the man with the blackbird tattoo on his right arm and glasses?If it is, then I will definitely find out "Taniguchi Toru", so that he can't live or die. However, this must be my overthinking again. I just used the word "cloning" to try to connect what happened to me with other events.And the event I'm trying to connect to is what happened in distant Fukui twenty years ago.I am not the center of the world. The so-called world center refers to this place.I look down at my feet, the pineapple at the tip of the cupola. "Here is the center of the world".What is the meaning of this sentence? But, is this really my overthinking?Isn't the incident that happened in Fengliju one of the incidents that happened to me?I can't make a final judgment yet, but does "Wednesday" really mean anything?Even Mercury C said that I was summoned by this place.So isn't my thought just taken for granted?Since it is a natural idea, then of course others can predict it.Therefore, the information I get in my own thinking is just a word from someone.Killing a detective is to punish the mistakes in their reasoning... If this inference is correct, then it may be correct to think that my rare name appears in such an inexplicable place, and there must be a deep meaning in it, isn't it? ? "Until now, Saburo has not regained the memory of that time." Mercury C continued, "After graduating from Takeshi Minami High School, he entered Echizen University, and then published works in Kodansha's Roberus Bunko, making his official debut as a Mystery writer, who died last night after publishing a bunch of bloody stupid mysteries. His life was bad enough." "He has been a writer since he was an adult. Isn't that amazing. If Mitamura Saburo's life is called bad, my life and yours are simply rubbish." "Idiot, making Japanese dim sum is an art." According to you, the novels of the dark hospital can also be regarded as a kind of art.But I didn't say it in the end, because it was too troublesome. Searching for missing children is no art anyway.I am absolutely sure of this. In fact, this kind of thing doesn't matter at all. "In short, after Saburo was killed, famous detectives gathered here, and now even those famous detectives have begun to be killed one after another. Three people have been killed this morning. The homicides are completely different, rather than saying that people are constantly being killed, it is better to say that famous detectives continue to be murdered here." Moreover, the three detectives who had been killed all died after publishing their own reasoning results. "Also, Mercury, didn't you tell me not to worry so much on the Shinkansen? Why are you playing the game of naming a detective with me now? Aren't you afraid that your eyes will be pierced by chopsticks?" Mercury C shrugged his shoulders exaggeratedly, and smiled "hehe": "It would be great if someone came to kill me. If that person dares to appear in front of me with chopsticks, I will definitely kill him first. " This kid is trying to have fun all the time. "But, Mercury, now I know that the words 'wet and peel' are meant to mislead us, and that the real clue is the phone number written in the yard. But that would lead to a lot of conflict and Question? The person who left the phone number should be Mitamura Saburo himself? I don’t know why the murdered Mitamura Saburo took so much effort to leave those messages in such a form, assuming those numbers were indeed left by him before his death , Then why didn’t you run away quickly when you knew you were about to be killed? Besides, we didn’t find Toru Taniguchi.” "Your questions can be resolved in an instant." Mercury C said, "It's very simple. First of all, Saburo committed suicide. There is no such thing as Toru Taniguchi." Mercury C probably didn't realize the real reason why what he said had a huge impact on me and made me stand still in place. That's right, it was because of what the pointed pig said to me just now. The one who killed the end brother was the end brother. Does that really answer my question correctly?I touched my breast pocket lightly, and the pointy pig was still there.I touched her and felt a slight tremor.She has life.She is here. "Then why did Saburo Mitamura leave such a message?" "It is to create the current situation. To summon those detectives. If there is no mystery, the detective will not appear. And the detective is summoned to kill them. The detective who kills the detective is the detective himself, They all committed suicide because their reasoning was wrong. Because they were all idiots. Pierced the eyes with chopsticks so that no one would see that it was suicide, because no one would believe that a normal person would commit suicide by such painful means. In In many novels, the means of pretending to commit suicide are generally hanging, swallowing a gun, cutting the wrist or jumping off a building, so people will not regard this unheard of death method as suicide.” "Wait, even if the method used is very unexpected, it doesn't mean that those famous detectives who died must have committed suicide. No one has found out what they did, right?" "It's been found out. The police found the anesthetic component in Diekongsi's happy eyeballs, and this..." Said, Mercury C took out another bottle of eye drops from his butt pocket.Looking at the packaging, it is the kind of thing that can be bought everywhere, but it is definitely not ordinary eye drops. "This is a 2% solution of lidocaine with adrenaline added. Before picking up the chopsticks, Diekongsi happily dripped this into his left eye for local anesthesia. He also applied some on the chopsticks. Then The guy must be terrified, hahaha." For a moment, I felt short of breath. "...Mercury, isn't that evidence for the police? Should it be handed over to them to collect fingerprints or something?" "No, no, this bottle is my own. I just asked the police for some of the contents. The rest are still in the eye drops bottle of Diekong Temple and have been returned to the police. The fingerprints on the bottle It has been collected, and the police have confirmed that it is the trembling fingerprint left by Diekongsi happy." "...What do you want that kind of thing for?" "Then do you still need to ask? Of course, when someone wants to stick chopsticks into his eyes, he will use them. Otherwise, that person will be too pitiful." "No, wait a little longer." I said, "You mean that Diekongsi used anesthetics to alleviate the pain of suicide, right? But Diekongsi committed suicide immediately after his reasoning failed, and his anesthetics When did you prepare it?" "The most likely explanation is that he stole the medicine he needed from the Xixiao Clinic. The clinic is next to our hotel, next door to Youyou. After inspection, the solution in the anesthetic container has indeed decreased, but there is no corresponding The usage records, and the handles and glass of the drug display cabinets were wiped so clean that even the fingerprints of the nurses in the clinic could not be found. Someone must have wiped off the fingerprints on purpose to cover up their actions. That stupid Detective Butterfly Kong Si Happy has no self-confidence in himself. When he thinks that he might pierce his eyes with chopsticks, he is terrified, so he ran to the clinic to steal lidocaine before entering Pineapple House. They are now asking the twins Someone else is asking." "Can't he, like you, bring the potion in to relieve the pain of others?" "Idiot, there is no one else who is so kind except me." "...my mind is in a mess." "No." "I mean my brain. Wait a minute, what the hell happened to those famous detectives to kill themselves?" "Then you'll have to ask those famous detectives who committed suicide." "Why do you want to put it in your own eyes..." "You're going to ask the famous detectives who committed suicide too. I'm not interested in why I killed myself, or why I chose to kill myself in this way. Just know it's happening. Detectives keep making mistakes, and then Suicide. That's all I want. But if I insist on saying it, it should be to create the situation like before and now. Because everyone except me thinks that the detective was locked in a secret room and killed, right? They must have committed suicide like that to mislead their thinking." I suddenly noticed something. "If your statements are all correct, then Saburo Mitamura committed suicide, Toru Taniguchi did not exist, and famous detectives also committed suicide. Doesn't this mean that the matter has been resolved? It should be said that there was no Whatever happens. Now the only remaining questions are who erased the phone number left by Saburo Mitamura, and why he left twelve words beginning with 'O' in the mountain in order to call a detective. But this kind of problem can be completely ignored, isn't it? Then there are no more puzzles here, and the detectives can go home. As long as the detectives leave here, that guy's attempt will be shattered. He will definitely not call the detective Let's just kill someone. Next, as long as we find out the alibi of everyone who stayed in Pineapple House on the night when the incident happened, we can find out who left those twelve words. Anyway, it must not be If one person can do it, there are probably several murderers." "It should be?" Mercury C nodded, and his tone seemed to be asking for my approval.Why did you come to ask for my permission, I thought to myself.Mercury C said: "Then, Big Bang laughed out all of these. After entering the mountains after the rain stopped in the middle of the night, the ones who took a lot of effort to leave those words were members of the Angel Rabbit Troupe. They seem to have confessed to the police I confess. Those members of the troupe are a bunch of idiots, no matter how many requests are made in the suicide note, they shouldn’t do it obediently. And in the final analysis, it is too weird and obvious to say that there were only victims and members of the troupe in Fengliju when the incident happened Well, they will definitely be the first to be suspected. So even if Big Bang laughs and solves this puzzle, it's not very powerful." My comprehension could no longer keep up with what he said. The police have confirmed that those troupe members were also involved?So that's...wait a minute, LOL solves the puzzle...what does that mean.Isn't hilarious curry dead? I remembered.When Baji and the others saw Mercury C climb up the skylight, they once said that Big Bang laughed and did the same. "Mercury, could it be... Could it be that what you said just now was not your own reasoning, but a reasoning that made you laugh out loud?" Mercury C looked at me with a look of contempt and said, "Part of it is." "Which part?" "Saburo Mitamura committed suicide. He entered that message in the telephone recording in his hometown, and left the phone number in the backyard, then fell down with an arrow in the back, and drew a zero with blood around the circular corridor. Angel Rabbit's According to the content of his suicide note, the members arranged twelve words radioactively in the mountain, misleading '0' into 'O'. When Curry came to Pineapple House, he stepped on the 'S' they deliberately piled up in the middle of the road, so he found After knowing the existence of the twelve words, he saw the phone number on the ground in the courtyard. The news that testified against the real murderer was not destroyed, but was disguised as being destroyed. The big laugh in the same town was able to arrive at Fengliju in time to find the traces of the phone number before the ground dried up. These were all expected by Saburo Mitamura, so this measure that seems to destroy the traces of homicide is actually to conceal His suicide behavior. That is to say, Big Bang has already deduced that Saburo's death was suicide." That said, the part about Saburo Mitamura's death is almost all hilarious reasoning.However, starting from the death of the famous detective, the incident has been magnified.But Mercury C said that the deaths of those famous detectives were also suicides.They all pretended to be murdered, and committed suicide one after another... If Saburo Mitamura was included, four people had already done so.And the Jingyecai incident that Baji talked about just now was also a mass suicide disguised as a serial killing incident.Then, will the Fengliju incident be the same as the Kyanocai incident, and when it is resolved, can we get the same good results as "jun radish" and "Toji turnip"?So I asked him, "Where is the evidence that the troupe members lined up the words?" "They found a lot of evidence, and there are also very common ones like fingerprints." "What's the content of the suicide note? What is the motive for Mitamura's suicide?" "I don't know that yet." Mercury C didn't seem very interested.The guy had no clue about the motives of the detectives' suicide, nor was he interested. "And then, is the reasoning of the last big laugh consistent with the truth?" Even if it is consistent, is it still dead in the end?Piercing your eyes with chopsticks? That is impossible. "It should be impossible." Mercury C also said, "He must have made a mistake, but I don't know how." "what does that mean?" "Actually, I'm not very clear about whether there is anything wrong with Big Bang." "But didn't the next detective make another reasoning?" Judy, Doll's House and Diekong Temple were happy. "Later, there should have been clues that Big Hilarious didn't know about, right?" "That's right." "Then he must have made a mistake." I thought again.This is probably the case with any incident in which a famous detective is involved.All clues have meaning... which means that without gathering all the clues, it is impossible to decipher the full meaning. Mercury C raised the corners of his mouth and smiled and said, "But I think there are always some things we don't know." It's the details that matter, such as the motive for suicide.It won't work if you don't know the details.That's why I said that Mercury C is not suitable to be a detective. "Mercury, have you also asked about the reasoning of Doll's House and Diekong Temple?" He must have threatened many people, right? "I was just about to start talking about those." Mercury C said, "Detective, do you know what clues the big laugh missed?" Mercury C stood on the top of Pineapple House, looking into the building through the glass skylight. "Big laugh is a resident of Xixiao Town, and the first famous detective to arrive at Fengliju... Moreover, he stepped on the letter S at the door. He was probably overwhelmed by excitement because he found the letters hidden in the mountains and the numbers in the backyard." Lost his head. So, when he stood in the 'center of the world', he only saw the outside view. Hey, detective, can you see now?" Urged by Mercury, I looked down into the Pineapple House.At this time, the surroundings had begun to darken, and the chandelier hanging from the "Center of the World" had been lit at some point.The detectives were still sitting on the sofa under the chandelier, but there didn't seem to be any conversations between the detectives who were sitting scattered.Have they finally gotten tired of the chatter and started to concentrate on reasoning? Mercury C seemed to me to see something just now. "I can only see the chandelier on the ceiling, the circular bloodstain in the corridor and the few detectives." Mercury C said, "No. You see the stars in the sky and the blood in the corridor and the idiots." "The stars in the sky?" I look up to the sky.The summer sky in Fukui is slowly darkening, but not yet so dark that the stars can be seen, but I know that on the other side of the mountains extending across the farmland, Sagittarius has probably shown its upper body.Does Mercury C see any correlation between Sagittarius in the sky and Saburo Mitamura, who was killed by an arrow? “你在看哪里啊,白痴。我说的天空的群星就在你脚下啊。” 听到水星C的话,我再次低头看向凤梨居的内部。脚下?我脚下只有那个枝形吊灯……吊灯下面则是不知道在干什么,看上去好像只有在发呆的几个名侦探……他们脚下的地板上也没有铺着绘有群星的地毯……吊灯上有十个大大的圆形灯泡,呈放射状不规则地排列着……支撑灯泡的最长那根灯臂几乎延伸到了天窗的边缘。我试图把吊灯视作一个物体,而不是单纯的光源。在十个灯泡中,只有一个上面贴了圆环。那个被铝质薄板制成的圆环所环绕的灯泡看上去就像土星。可是为什么要在照明用的灯泡上安装这种不透光的圆环呢……这样做难道不会降低亮度吗?……不对不对,不是这样的。那个灯泡肯定不是碰巧被做得很像土星,那一定真的就是土星。 天空的群星。 注释:
