Chapter 15 Section 3

After asking about the situation, Police Chief Ogawara sighed, stared at me and said, "What's going on here? In just a few days, two murders happened. Moreover, they were both the targets of your visit. Why is this so? How about a coincidence?" "If you say that, you'll embarrass me. I also feel very boring and troublesome." "Really?" There was something in the police department's words, and they still stared at me with piercing eyes. "Otherwise, what is it?" "Ah, I don't know. But I always feel that it's because of you that this happened."

I couldn't help but staggered backward. "nonsense." "It's really silly to think like this. But I also felt the same way about the last incident." The police department touched his chin and continued, "I always feel that people in this small town are born to play a certain role." "I'm an outsider." I stopped quarreling with the police department, pointed to the entrance of the scene, and asked, "Can we go in?" "Ah, yes." Someone is cleaning up the place.The arrow was still stuck in Hida Shunsuke's forehead. "Please wait a moment." I stopped the staff who were about to move the corpse, and reached out to Shunsuke Hida's mustache-covered mouth.There was blood on his face, but it had begun to solidify.

"Hey, don't touch the corpse." "Just a touch." I gently grabbed what was attached to Huo Tian's lips, like white filaments. "What, that's it?" The police department looked at my hand and said. "I don't know, please investigate." I put it in the hands of the police department. After seeing that the police department was handed over to the subordinates, I walked to the glass door.The small crossbow appears to have been put away by the police. Opposite the stone wall is a forest, where a large number of scouts are searching, and shouts are heard from time to time.

"You think the murderer fled into the woods?" "Of course. You guys chased around in the outer corridor, but didn't find the murderer. Then, from the point of view of time, the only possibility is that the murderer shot Huo Tian with a crossbow and then jumped off the corridor to escape. now, isn't it?" "But..." I leaned down and looked at the woods below, and said, "Although it is only a two-story building, it still has a certain height. If you jump from the corridor, you will be sprained in mild cases, and broken in severe cases. If that is the case, how could the murderer How about escaping, not to mention making a lot of noise."

"Probably a lucky guy." "Not necessarily. It's also possible that the murderer is not afraid. Maybe he didn't expect to fall and be unable to walk." "Or maybe a no-brainer." "Even if he jumped down and nothing happened, we should be able to see his escaped back from the window." "Probably run faster." Just when I was speechless because of the police department's speculation, one of his police departments walked in. "Police, Aono said something very interesting." "Oh, what? Bring him here." The detective went out, and soon, Qing Ye walked in with a pale face.

"What's the matter?" the police department asked. Aono's originally thin shoulders became even thinner.He raised his eyelids tremblingly to look at the police department, then at me, and finally looked at the police department and spoke. "Well, the police department asked me if I had any clues, such as if anyone held a grudge against the teacher..." "Do you have a clue?" "It's not really a clue." Aono glanced at me secretly again, and said, "Actually, that fellow Akagi recently said that he wanted to kill Sensei when he was drunk..."

"Kill the teacher...really?" The police department's eyes widened and asked, "Is the Chimu you're talking about the fat disciple?" Aono lowered her slender neck and nodded. "His novel was devalued by the teacher, and the teacher told him to go back to the countryside. Akagi seems to have a grudge against this matter. Moreover, this morning, his new work was scolded again..." "Since he hates the teacher so much, it's fine if he doesn't become the teacher's disciple." The police department took it for granted. "If that's the case, there's nothing to worry about. Akagi once wanted to publish his first novel, but the teacher played tricks behind his back to stop it. Akagi always said that if he knew this, he might as well not be a student. When he is a reader He adored and respected his teacher so much when he was in school."

"Oh, so his patience has reached its limit?" "Also," Qingye continued, "I think the crossbow is the one in the reference room on the first floor. Akagi had been arranging books in the library before the incident, and the library and the reference room are next to each other..." "Okay." The police department clapped their hands and issued an order to their subordinates, "A thorough investigation of Akagi." After watching the police department go out, I said to Qing Ye with a stiff expression, "I thought you were friends. Are you calm when you accuse your friends like this?"

"We are not friends." Aoye said, "We are competitors." "Hasn't Akagi been with Xiaolu all the time?" "Who knows. If he really wants to do that, he should be able to escape her. The library is huge." I exhaled and glanced at the scene casually.There are still a lot of books scattered on the ground.But something doesn't feel right to me.It was a little different than when I first walked into the room and saw the dead body. "There are... so few books on the shelf?" "Ah, what?" Aono asked. "The bookshelf. Mr. Huotian fell to the one behind the bookshelf. When I first came to the scene, there were more books on it than now."

"Oh?" Ao Ye didn't seem to have any interest, just looked at the bookshelf, and said vaguely, "Really?" I left the room and walked the inner corridor. Suppose the murderer has the key to a certain room.He hid in that room, went out through the glass door facing the outer corridor of the room, and came to Shunsuke Hida's workshop. It was not difficult to kill Hida.After finishing the work, go back to the house by the same way, lock the doors and windows from the inside, go through the room, come to the inner corridor, and lock the door back, so that we don't have to worry about being discovered by us.But, can you escape just by coming to the inner corridor?

Chimu and Xiaolu are both in the library on the first floor.Akagi said that he walked out immediately after hearing the noise.If the murderer is present in the inner corridor, he should be able to see it. Moreover, the side exit of the gate is also locked, and a key is required even to open the door from the inside.So the murderer should have had the key. Thinking like this, I unconsciously walked to the first floor.The police department and the criminal police seemed to be very busy for some reason. "I've always been here. Really, please believe me." A voice came from the direction of the library. I poked my head and saw that it was Akagi. His round face was flushed red, he waved his hands impatiently, and insisted: "I'm sorting out books, I've been sorting out books all the time. I didn't take a step out." "Really, Miss?" Daheyuan Police Department asked Xiaolu. She nodded vigorously. "It's true. Mr. Akagi was with me all the time." The police department gave a dull hum, and glared at his subordinates with a gloomy face.Probably because he felt bewitched by Aono's words and couldn't step down. The phone rang, and a criminal policeman picked up the receiver, and after a few words, he called: "The police department, it's Mrs. Huotian." The Okawara Police Department with an increasingly gloomy face approached the phone.No matter who it is, they don't want to talk to the victim's wife. "Are you okay?" I asked Xiaolu. Xiaolu's face was pale, and she nodded slightly. "Then let's go back first, the mayor should worry." As I said this, I was about to pat her on the shoulder, when she suddenly raised her head to look at me and said, "Mr. Tianxiayi, this is a curse." "what?" "It's a curse. After the things that were originally sealed in the memorial hall were unsealed, everyone began to be cursed. We must... we must find a way." "Little green..." "I have to think of a way, I have to think of a way." After Xiaolu repeated it twice, she closed her eyes and collapsed like a doll.Seeing that she was about to fall to the ground.I hurried forward to hold him.
