Chapter 24 chapter eight

Clang, clang, clang, rhythmic sound came from the doors of each room, and the famous detectives who had been in the room just now began to appear.Douyuan and Maomao Miaomiao came out of the room just now, and the three boys whose names were not known walked out of their own rooms on the second floor. They completed their actions almost at the same time, as if they had been waiting for the signal from Baji. And they're all pretty kids.He didn't even wipe his nosebleed, and let his shirt be stained blood red. Diekongsixiyouhe, who was sitting slumped on the sofa, also had nosebleeds on his face, walked in slowly from the entrance, as if he was deliberately reminding others The two of them, Hastel, who had been hurt, also had beautiful faces.In other words, did Chu Douhai not go to the hospital after that, but stayed near the entrance and waited for his chance to appear?

"At this time, it is really appropriate to create an atmosphere of the final movement." Baji said.The detectives gathered behind Baji, already getting excited. "Famous detective, the 'name' means 'famous'. Next, let me introduce everyone's names. You must have met Miss Douyuan and Miss Maomao, so I will come Let me introduce these three boys. Starting from the left, they are Mr. Saberyama No. 2 and a half, Mr. Kakinouchi Wanwantiao, and Mr. Sun and Moon.” Baji said without looking sideways, and the three boys raised their hands behind him. Start and nod at me.Their movements are so smooth, it seems as if they are constantly practicing.But I didn't hear the name I saw on the news website before I came to Fukui, so I asked: "Where is 'Hongo Taxi Taxi'?" Hearing my question, Kakiuchi behind Yaji said: " Hongo is a member of Angel Rabbit, so he should still be at the investigation headquarters of the police station."

At this moment, I heard the sound of many people coming in one after another from the entrance behind. They either groaned or sighed, and entered the Fengli House together, making the scene lively.Looking around, it seems that they are all young people, who look like college students.Among them was a tall, straight-nosed, messy-haired man who raised his hands and walked towards them. "Hi everyone, thank you for your hard work." "Cao Cao Cao Cao will be there." Yuan Nei said with a smile, "This is the local Taxi Taxi." "Ah, are you posting a reasoning?"

"We're about to start. Mr. Hongo, please join us." "Ah, yes, but can I have a bowel movement first? My stomach has been hurting since just now." "That's because you're too nervous." "I'm too worried." "...The jokes you tell don't make sense. Mr. Baji, do you have time to let Mr. Hongo go to the bathroom?" Baji still didn't look back. "please." When Hongo was out of our sight, Baji said to me: "You are a good brick thrower, Mr. Edie." What?How to say it is as if I summoned my hometown Taxi Taxi back.And it's specifically for Octopole.

No, it is not.Since they have all become famous detectives, they must be different from small people like me, and have some connection with high-level police figures.Baji must have used his relationship to learn that the local Taxi Taxi will probably return to Pineapple House at this time. "6:50." Baji said while looking at his watch, "If I want to return to Tokyo today, I must leave Fengliju within 20 minutes and take the bus departing at 7:22." Shangjing Tram. If my reasoning is correct, then in order to prevent another detective from appearing after me, a man will get off the Shangjing Tram that arrives at Xixiao Station at about 6:45 and take Mr. Iwasaki’s taxi. It'll be here soon."

The behavior of Baji is like spying on the will of the gods.But I know it's just his performance.He must have known the man would come here in that taxi...but my thoughts were interrupted by the noise outside the door.The sound of a propeller approaching.Behind the members of the Angel Rabbits, I saw several small trucks, vans and vans pouring out of the open gate.Those cars instantly filled the gap in the police room, and a group of people armed with microphones, cameras and other equipment opened the door and rushed out.Through the skylight, I saw a searchlight from a hovering helicopter.he came.

The crowd at the entrance of Fengliju was squeezed and then separated, and a thin child wearing overalls and shorts walked out from among them.The skin of the whole body is still slippery, and it is at an age where the boundaries between men and women are not yet clear.The child was bathed in the light of the searchlight, waved his hand in front of the entrance to signal the media staff to be quiet, and then said in a high-pitched voice like knocking on glass: "Good evening, everyone! I am the God of beauty, Erliuzhu! I am very sorry, can anyone help me first?" Can you lend me 860 yen? When I came by taxi, I found that I forgot to put the yen in my wallet, please lend me it!"

Ha ha!Mercury C laughed.The detectives and members of the Angel Rabbit team also laughed in unison, and Baji still spoke without looking back. "Master Erliu, tell the taxi driver to wait there for a while! I'm going to the station in his car soon!" "Okay." Master Erliu agreed, and walked outside obediently. Under the gaze of everyone else, Baji continued: "Okay, now let's enter the solution. Mr. Hongo, have you flushed the toilet yet?" !" "Uh..." Everyone looked at the back of Hongo, who passed by Master Erliu and entered the entrance, turned around and went out in a hurry. "Why did that guy forget again?" One of the Angel Rabbit members said loudly, causing everyone to laugh. "Why does our family's famous detective feel inferior to Lord Erliu in all aspects." The members of Angel Rabbit began to joke among themselves.

At this time, a tall young man came over and said to Mercury C and me: "Good evening, I am the head of Angel Rabbit, and my name is Fukushima Gaku." That was exactly the voice I heard on the phone just now .But now he doesn't seem to be as absent-minded as before.I walked over to shake hands with Fukushima: "My name is William Edie. I am a detective who specializes in searching for missing children. But I am not here to investigate the murders that occurred in Fengliju." "Hello, hello, hard work It’s confusing here. Anyway, your Japanese is so good, it’s beyond description.” “Thank you. This is Mercury C who was talking to you on the phone just now.” Mercury C said nothing. Without holding Fukushima's outstretched hand, "Ah, sorry, I can't stand physical contact." Then why do you like fighting so much.Fukushima withdrew his outstretched hand and said, "Thanks to your phone call just now, we were finally released by the police. Thank you. You really helped us a lot. Also, what you said to me on the phone just now In other words, how should I put it, it seems to make me feel a little more relaxed... In short, I got a lot of comfort. In fact, this kind of psychological liberation... I want to express my gratitude more. Thank you so much." " You are very annoying, stop talking, let's watch this upcoming performance together." "Could it be that the whole incident is coming to an end?" "I don't know either. Let's watch first and then talk." At this moment, Fengliju suddenly It boiled again.The members of the Angel Rabbits, detectives, and us have gathered in the central hall. There are nearly 30 people in total. We all saw the God of Beauty Erliu appearing at the door again.The Angel Rabbit members began to applaud and cheer.It seems that the unique style of Master Erliu, who exudes a mongoose atmosphere, is indeed very popular among people.I felt like there was something under my feet, and when I looked down, it turned out that the pointed pig was pulling my trouser leg. "Come on." I picked up the tip and put it in my breast pocket, but the pointed pig hit my hand with her round front foot.So I took her to my ear and whispered, "Here comes Ethessnabe. You're scared, Disco."

That was the name mentioned in the first conversation with the tip of the pointed pig just now, Esses Nabina, the big black face who pulled out nails while he was asleep. "where is he?" "here." "where?" "here." "Can you see it?" "Hiding now. Let's run, Disco." "Is he here to kill?" "right." "Kill who?" "I don't know. I hate it." "Then does he have any idea of ​​shooting? Will shooting be dangerous?" "It's all right. Don't know. But it's annoying. Let's go over there!"

"Where is that over there?" "Over there! Over there! Anywhere! It's terrible!" I said to Mercury C: "Hey, I want to go away first." Mercury didn't speak, just waved to me.Should I take him away too?Or take everyone here?Wouldn't that sound a lot like the "everyone get off that plane! It's going to crash soon" kind of prophecy?Even if it would be embarrassing, I have to try... No, I have to take care of Sui first.Although I don't know where the "Ethessnabina" is, I'd better not be too ostentatious, and it's better to act in a low-key manner.The safety of the tip must be given priority. But just when I was about to leave there, Baji spoke. "Where are you guys going? Mr. Disco Wednesday... and Miss Yamagishi." I stopped and stared at Baji's nonchalant face, then at Douyuan and Maomao.The two quickly waved to me, as if to say that they didn't do it. "I didn't ask them to reveal any information, Mr. Wednesday." Baji said calmly, "Who did I get the information from? I'll talk about that later. But we still have to act in order." "I advise you not to say anything." I told him that it was all for his own good. "Someone is already watching your eyes." Can my words restrain the actions of "Esses Naibina" a little bit? "My eyes will be fine, Mr. Wednesday." There was no defensive look on Baji's face.The guy sure doesn't know yet.At what moment would "Esses Naibina" attack, he had waited until a detective finished his reasoning.But there is no guarantee that he will wait until that moment this time. "I have nothing to do with the events here, and I have no interest." I said, turning to the door again, trying to leave here through Baji...but Baji spoke again. "I don't know what that pig has instilled in you, but I just want to remind you that you have been used by that pig now." Without hesitation, I turned around and shook my fist.With a "shua", my fist brushed Baji's face.He did it again.Instead of retracting my fist, I took advantage of the situation to throw an elbow.This time he must look good.My elbow punch successfully hit Baji on the side of his head. "It hurts!" There were screams from around, and Baji fell to the ground.But he must not have fallen to the ground this time entirely to avoid my attack.That elbow punch definitely worked. "Haha!" Among the crowd, only Mercury C enjoyed it. "Not bad, detective!" I waited for a while, but it seemed that it would take some time for Yaji to fight back.So I turned around and walked towards the door again... Before I could take three steps, Baji spoke again. "Shao is actually not the kind of little girl you imagined, Mr. Disco!" What did he say... I turned slowly and he managed to hit me in the soft spot. "What do you mean?" I accidentally said it, are you really not going to think for yourself?I asked myself.Are you a detective?I just blindly accept other people's words... But my job is basically to find people everywhere to ask questions and get news.It's not like a famous detective who just needs to think.Although since I came here, I have been surrounded by many detectives, and I hardly took any action, but because I met Tiao when I first came here, and then I heard Mercury reenact the reasoning of several detectives, so I hardly found a chance to act .Do I find this very easy?Am I being lazy? "I will explain this in order." Baji said, "I want to stand up now, please don't attack me. Please listen to me carefully, it won't waste too much of your time." I looked at my watch , it is six fifty-five.Baji started his explanation, and I simply listened quietly.If his reasoning goes wrong and he gets pierced in the eye by "Esses Naibina," it's his own fault. I reached into my breast pocket and felt the pointy pig inside. tip. After all, how much trust can I place in something? Even with messy hair, Baji stood up and said: "Mr. Wednesday, after you listened to the hilarious Mr. Curry and Judy from Mr. Mercury, the reasoning of the doll's house, and the thoughts of Mr. Happy Diekong Temple, Do you feel that something is not complete? Do you feel as if there is something left unsaid? Is there a strange feeling that the most important puzzle has not been answered, or the feeling of not fully burning What? Everyone knows that when a famous detective solves a mystery, no matter how trivial it is, it will have a reasonable explanation. But the reasoning of the previous famous detectives has not achieved this. This In the reasoning process of a famous detective, things should have been impossible. Because the detective himself can best tell whether a reasoning is correct. Several of their reasonings have ignored an important message, that is, "pineapple sister' existence." All clues make sense. I heard a "puff puff" laugh somewhere.Looking up to find the source of the voice, it turned out to be the three detectives introduced just now. what's so funny. "How can someone call her such a strange name as 'Sister Pineapple'?" Kakiuchi smiled, but no one looked at him with a frown like I did.The Angel Rabbit Troupe, Sun Moon, and Sabayama all had smiles of "Yes, yes. Why is that name so strange?" on their faces.It's normal that they don't know Gakiuchi, Sabayama, and Sun Moon, but I didn't expect that Angel Rabbit had never heard of this name.I checked Douyuan and Maomao with my eyes, but they also looked at me with a strange expression.Why is that? "Indeed." Baji finished talking to Yuanchi, and continued to explain, "Why do they ignore the character 'Pineapple Sister' in their reasoning? Man, Mr Wednesday." He called the roll. "I heard the story about 'Pineapple Sister' from Ms. Muroi Spoon." After Baji finished speaking to me, he said to Kakiuchi, "Sorry, Mr. Kakiuchi, could you please bring me the laptop? ? It’s the one with AIR-EDGE.” Gakiuchi said “OK” with a chuckle and ran to the room. "How can you investigate my affairs casually." I said. "Because I'm a detective." Baji replied.Then he asked me again, "Have you confirmed the reports on 'Pineapple Sister' on other sites?" Nope. "No, right. I've looked for it." Saying that, Baji picked up the phone and pressed the redial button. "I'm calling Mr. Katsushi Ota of the Kodansha Literature and Art 3rd Publishing Department. He is the editor in charge of the Ehime River and the dark hospital at Kodansha. ... Ah, sorry to bother you. I just gave you I am lucky to have Yaji who called. Is it convenient for you to answer the phone now... Yes, yes, the body of Mr. Dark Hospital will definitely be sent back to the main family in Mita Village before the funeral the day after tomorrow. Yes, yes. Um... now I Here is a gentleman named Disco Wednesday. He speaks Japanese very well, so you can speak Japanese with him without worry. Then I will hand over the phone to him first." Baji handed me the phone, and I took it . "Hello." "Hello, it's my first meeting. I'm sorry to trouble you all the time. I'm Ota from the 3rd Publishing Department of Kodansha Literature and Art. Uh...Mr. Yaji just invited me to be the "sister pineapple" of Mr. Anan Hospital's house ' A brief explanation, are you ready?" "...No problem, please continue." "Ah, your Japanese is really good. Hmm... 'Pineapple Sister' is about six years It started to appear in Pineapple House a while ago...it was the summer of 2000, almost at this time. So after Mr. Dark Hospital decided to make his debut and built Fengli House, 'Pineapple Sister' appeared there immediately. But that’s just what Mr. Dark Hospital himself said, and no one has actually seen it. Including our editors, we rarely visit Mr. Dark Hospital in Fengliju, and we usually communicate through emails. Although I have visited Fengliju several times to pick up manuscripts, but Mr. Dark Hospital would bring the manuscripts to me at the door every time. We would stand there and chat for a few words before leaving. I like others to stay with him for too long, so we all try to take care of his thoughts..." Then the rumors I saw on the Internet that the pineapple sister made the editors of the publishing house creepy were really just rumors...or was it a gimmick added by a reporter on the spur of the moment? He took the mobile phone I handed back, thanked Ota, and Baji hung up the phone. "So, what happened to the webpage Mr. Wednesday saw?" Baji said, turning his back to me, and when he turned back, he had a laptop in his hand.Gakiuchi was standing behind Baji.Baji opened the notebook, and the report that seemed familiar was displayed on the screen. "A girl ghost appeared in the reasoning writer's home" "Miss Douyuan, could you please explain to the members of Angel Rabbit what I just said?" Suddenly called by Baji, Douyuan did not panic, but began to explain Baji Ji's commentary: "Actually..." As soon as she started, Baji walked over from my side, blocking my view of Douyuan. "As I thought, Ms. Douyuan has already completed the same investigation. In fact, detectives are like this. If there is only one answer, they will go straight to that answer." Baji said to himself Continued, "This page is well disguised, but it is still not a real page. Someone imitated the layout of a news website and fabricated the entire report page of the panda loyalist event." "Wait a minute... so you're saying the panda incident was completely made up?" "No, the panda incident is real. The panda loyalty incident did happen. But," Baji closed his mouth and stared at my chest, "the 'Shimada' that appeared in Xiaosao's body Kikyo' is not easy to say." I stretched my hand to my chest, covering the pointy pig.Feel the pointy pig rubbing its head against my palm. Baji looked away from my breast pocket, turned his back to me, and said to everyone: "Then let's solve the panda incident first."
