Chapter 8 6. The murder that really happened

I was supposed to be in the reception room waiting for the police to interrogate me.Suddenly, in the darkness, he opened his eyes suddenly.At this time, I just felt that my throat was so thirsty that I couldn't stand it. I wanted to drink water but also wanted to stay under the quilt. Thirst and drowsiness were fighting each other.In this half-dream and half-awake state, I was vaguely aware that I was in bed in the attic room.The time is "reset" again.After midnight, the space-time black hole resets, returning to the starting point of January 2nd again.I was vaguely aware of it, though drowsiness had clouded my mind.It's just that even if I realize it, at this point, sleepiness will eventually overcome everything, and I just fell asleep again like this.

The faint sunlight reflected outside the window made me really wake up.Glancing at the alarm clock, it was only past eight in the morning.I hurriedly jumped up from the bed, ran downstairs from the attic room, and secretly peeped at the kitchen of the main house. "So there is no red color paper?" I heard the voice of Yuan Gong full of vigor. "What's going on here, shouldn't it be fully prepared? There is only red colored paper missing." I secretly let out another breath and let go of my heart.Although I know very well that as long as I "reset", that day will start all over again.However, it was the first time that the dead appeared when falling into the space-time black hole.Because of this, the feeling that my grandfather was "resurrected" made me a little scared.

Aunt Hu Liunai replied that there was no red colored paper, and asked what to do. Grandpa asked Mrs. Juzi to buy colored paper at the stationery store, but got a reply that the store was not open during the New Year holiday.These conversations are the same as before, and there is really no need to hear the end.So I walked back toward the attic. When I finished climbing the stairs with only a few steps left, something in the shape of a seal on the edge of the steps caught my attention. I stopped immediately and bent over to pick it up.Of course, those were Luna's sister's earrings. The first round, then the second round, and then on January 2nd of the third round, the earring fell here—this incident itself is not incredible.In the previous round (that is, the second round on January 2), I returned the earrings to sister Luna as soon as my grandfather's body was found.But because of the "reset", the earrings are back here again.With such an explanation, all the circumstances make sense.

Although this situation is normal, the earrings have been dropped here since this time, which means that sister Luna was from eleven o'clock in the evening yesterday (real January 1st) to today's (January 2nd) Between eight o'clock in the morning, I once made a special trip from the main building to the main house, and also went to the attic.What is the reason for doing so?Once again, I was troubled by the doubts that had arisen in the "previous round".Even if she came to me for something, it didn't have to be in the middle of the night. There should be other times to choose, which really puzzled me.Could it be that sister Luna specially asked me for a tryst in the middle of the night?If this is the case, of course I am very happy, but no matter how I think about it, it is impossible!

While playing with the earrings in the palm of my hand, I stood up from the quilt, folded my arms, and began to sort out these countless things that I had to think about.First of all, what didn't happen in the first round, why did it happen in the second round?This is the biggest puzzle. As mentioned earlier, I am the only one who can jump out of the repeated "time course" of the black hole of time and space and take actions according to my own will, and I am the only one who recognizes this phenomenon of repeated time and space.In other words, what didn't happen in the first round suddenly happened in the second round. If I think about it, it must have something to do with me.Therefore, the only conclusion that can be inferred is that I am the prisoner who killed grandpa.

This of course does not mean that I directly killed Grandpa.It was because I took different actions from the first round, which disrupted the schedule of the "first round". Afterwards, like dominoes falling one after another, a chain reaction occurred, making those who would not have been killed Grandpa was killed because of this.Apart from this, no other reasonable explanation is possible. If we want to get to the bottom of the reason, we have to review the different actions I made in the first round and the second round.The first thing that comes to mind is drinking with grandpa.In the first round, I drank with my grandfather, but in the second round, I deliberately ran away.I think the difference in this matter creates a causal cycle, and finally it develops into a murder incident!In this way, as long as I drink with my grandfather, he will not be killed. It's really easy to say!But if this is the case, including the current round, I will have to drink heavily for seven rounds, and then throw up all kinds of meat and vegetables, and repeat this pain over and over again.However, I must save my grandfather's life, and I am willing to bear all the pain of starting over again.But is there really no other way?In addition to this round, there are seven chances to do it all over again, so I decided to try various methods.If you can find a way to save Grandpa successfully without having to drink with him, just repeat the same procedure for each of the remaining rounds.

I waited until nine o'clock and went to the restaurant of the main building. After eating the prepared food, I left the restaurant and went to the atrium.While looking around for a suitable place to hide, I noticed the bushes around the annex and hid in it. I began to monitor the entrance of the annex.Just then, sisters Luna and brother Fujitaka appeared.Sure enough, as if he was afraid of being seen by others, he hurriedly entered the annex.Everything is going on according to the previous "schedule". After I came out of the bushes, I also headed towards the annex.Knocking on the door, you can feel the two people holding their breath suddenly.I opened the door without hesitation. I thought the door would be locked, but I didn't expect to open it without any effort.Brother Fujitaka is really careless!If it were me, if I brought a girl into the secret room, I would definitely lock the door.Oh, I'm just talking big anyway!

"I'm sorry." I tried my best not to let my pretentious expression collapse, and peeked at the situation in the room. "I'm really sorry to come in and bother you when you are busy." The reactions of the two were different. Sister Luna sat with her legs crossed and looked at me calmly as if nothing had happened. Brother Fujitaka looked very strange. He kept a distance from Sister Luna, with his face facing the closet and his body He didn't move at all, as if he was hiding something hastily.Originally intending to act indiscreetly, he had unbuttoned his tracksuit pants a long time ago, and squatted in a posture with his underwear exposed, trying to hide it.I saw a touch of sadness in his back.

"Brother Fujitaka, I have something to tell you." "What's the matter?" He coughed dryly on purpose, turned around, and secretly glanced at Sister Luna who didn't change her face. There was a little complaint in her eyes, as if she wanted to express, why are you a woman at this embarrassing moment? It's so thorny. "Let's talk about it another day!" "I hope sister Luna will listen too." I stopped ahead of sister Luna who said "I'll go first" and was about to leave. "Please be sure to stay and listen together, this is very important."

"Important matter?" "Of course it has something to do with grandpa's heir. Ah, that's right," I handed the earrings I brought to sister Luna. "This is for you." Onee-san Luna's expression was stiff, and she stared at me with wary eyes.Her hand seemed to be grabbing something from the mud, and she took the earring from my hand. "Well, sorry, let's get straight to the point! Well, the relationship between the two is actually extraordinary, right?" "It's okay." Brother Fujitaka changed his original attitude when he saw that his deeds were exposed, and pulled up his pants to put on his underwear. "You can think so."

"During the holidays, sister Luna will go to my brother's apartment to help with the laundry!" I was anxious to let the other party get into the situation earlier, and accidentally used all the trump cards in my hand. "And he's called Brother Xiaofu." "You even know these things!" After knowing the truth, Brother Fujitaka laughed easily.It was the first time I saw him laugh like this.Even private matters were known by others, but his mood did not deteriorate because of it. "Really. But you're right. I told my mom that I cook for myself, but she cooks for me, of course when I'm on vacation! Although Luna looks very avant-garde, she's actually quite a A traditional woman. She often cooks some stews and other dishes, which are delicious! Especially the potato stew, which is really good!" Brother Fujitaka seems to have broken free from the shackles, showing off his love affair triumphantly.In comparison, Luna sister's stiff expression has not changed at all, which makes me a little concerned.Compared with when they first stepped into this room, the attitudes of the two at this time are just the opposite. "You should have... You should have plans to get married!" "No, what should I say! It's not that I don't have any plans at all, but I haven't discussed it in detail. Anyway, I'm still a student now." "What's Luna sister thinking? Don't you plan to marry brother?" I cut to the core in one go. "Marry my brother and inherit the Fukami family together. Have you ever thought about it?" "Huh?" Her stiff expression gradually softened, but her expression became anxious.She was probably surprised that what I planned in secret was completely hit by me. "Yeah? That, that, hey, this, I, that, I don't know!" She was flustered, and she rarely acted awkwardly like a silly girl. "What the hell is Xiao Q talking about! I never thought of such a thing!" "In short, don't you think that the relationship between the two of you can just save everyone?" "What do you mean by that?" Brother Fujitaka straightened up, seeming very interested in what I said. "After the two of us get married, we will inherit Yuanshang's family? Does it mean that we are both adopted sons of Aunt Hu Liunai at the same time?" "Yes, that's it. The two people who are close to each other inherit the Yuanshang family at the same time. In this way, there is no need for the mothers of our two families to hate each other? If they give birth to grandpa's grandson together, it will be even more happy The ending! Not just the older brother and older sister, but everyone can become very happy!" "But... can it really go so smoothly? Is this really feasible? Didn't grandpa say that he should decide the heir by himself? Besides, the will should have already written the chosen heir!" "Not yet written." "what?" "Grandpa hasn't written the will yet, so it seems he doesn't know who to choose. I think sister Luna knows about it too." "Is that so?" Brother Fujitaka looked at sister Luna.She held the earring tightly in her hand, her eyes flickered for a while, but she finally nodded. "Yes, I heard that the will has not been written yet. I came here just to talk to Xiao Fu about it." "It looks like this, so it is like this." "And I also thought about marrying Xiaofu and inheriting the Yuanshang family. I originally planned to propose this method to you, but Xiao Q told me first!" "Hmm!" Brother Fujitaka admired him sincerely. "Two people have the same idea at the same time! It's really amazing!" "That's it! I was really shocked." She stared at me in a bad mood, giving me no room to interrupt, and began to chatter. "Could it be that sister Luna... plans to propose this matter to grandpa before he writes a new will, and then ask him to change his mind? That's why I plan to go to persuade grandpa with brother Fujitaka immediately today?" "That's right!" I don't know if Sister Luna thinks that such a thing can be easily associated after simple thinking, or she is paralyzed by her own thoughts being said first, and there is no surprise on her face. "If you don't convince Grandpa before he makes a final decision, everything will be meaningless." "That's not necessarily true." "Huh? What's going on?" "First of all, when persuading Grandpa, whether he will do what you say is a question." "Well, yes, there is nothing wrong." Brother Fujitaka was completely attracted by this topic.Perhaps it was the assumption of inheriting Yuanshang's family that gradually attracted him and made him unintentionally ambitious. "This is the biggest problem. What should I do? Even if I talk to him seriously, I don't think Grandpa will readily agree with us. Anyway, he is a complete old stubborn. Once he makes up his mind, it is impossible to take it back and ask him to change. Intentions, at best, will only offend him!" "Then..." Sister Luna looked at me with eyes full of expectation. "What should I do?" "In short, let grandpa decide first. Everything is done according to his own preferences. This is the most important thing. Therefore, no matter what, let him write the will according to his own ideas." "But, in this way, isn't it too late? It's too late for everything, right?" "Please think carefully. Grandpa said that the will written this time is the final will, and he decided it himself. Therefore, this does not mean that Grandpa will not change his mind and change the content of the will." "That's right." Brother Fujitaka sensed my thoughts and interjected first. "As long as grandpa wants to change his mind, it's not the point to rewrite it a few times later!" "Yes! Yes! So just let Grandpa change his mind! Let him rewrite the will again." "Then what, how should I do it? Hey!" Sister Luna became excited, as if she wanted to push her brother away and lean out. "How can grandpa change his mind and rewrite the will again?" "The method is very simple. The premise is that you must get married. However, you must not be seen as having any intention of inheriting the Yuanshang family. You must convince Grandpa that your plan to start a family has nothing to do with the Yuanshang family's property. This is the whole plan The key point." Brother Fujitaka and sister Luna nodded at the same time like a machine.It was the first time in my life that the two of them listened so intently to what I had to say. "Then, please do your best to have a child. If necessary, you can get married after the child is born. It doesn't matter if you cook the rice with raw rice. No matter what, if you have to have a child, it is a great-grandson to Grandpa. ! Lovely great-grandson! That’s a much cuter great-grandson than a grandson!” They seem to understand what I want to express, their expressions are serious as if they are listening to an oracle, and their eyes are shining like the sun. "Don't let grandpa see his great-grandson often, but don't let them be too distant. It's best to make him wait impatiently before he sees his great-grandson next time, let him wait until he can't stand it, and let him Forced into such a state of mind. The most critical part is timing. Maybe grandpa will simply want to live with his great-grandson—to let grandpa start to have this idea. How? Isn't it very simple? Let grandpa think that if he wants to see his great-grandson, he only needs to let his elder brother and sister Luna become the adopted sons of Aunt Huruno at the same time and inherit the Fuchigami family. It will not take too much time for grandpa to think this way! Grandpa will definitely I also want the members of the Yuanshang family to live together under this roof! In this way, the will will of course be rewritten." "Q Taro," Brother Fujitaka said seriously, "You are really a genius, thank you!" He lowered his head and bowed, while I secretly stuck out my tongue.They just listened to the outline of the plan, and fell into the illusion that it was a perfect battle.But in fact, there are still many uncertain factors. It is naturally difficult to determine whether things can develop smoothly according to the plan.However, I don't need to review the feasibility of this plan. The most important thing is that the two of them are not allowed to approach the main house all day today. Was the criminal who "killed" Grandpa Fujitaka or sister Luna?Or are they accomplices in murder?Now that I want to make such a conclusion, it is beyond doubt!Anyway, the phalaenopsis vase used as the murder weapon was brought to the main house by sister Luna from the main building, and brother Fujitaka has been acting with her all the time.No matter how you think about it, it is very reasonable to regard the two as suspects. Why did the two have to kill grandpa?I don't know the reason or motive. It's really unimaginable that they will have killing intent.Maybe it was because I lost control of my emotions during the process of persuading my grandfather!Therefore, I also firmly believe that as long as they continue to monitor them and keep them away from the main house, Grandpa will be safe. "But there is one problem." Seeing that sister Luna was about to agree to my suggestion, her face suddenly darkened. "And my mother! Of course Auntie Jiashishou is too. I don't think they will approve of my marriage with Xiaofu, and they will not only object verbally, but may even obstruct it." "That's why I said I want to have a baby sooner!" Brother Fujigao looked like a wolf pouncing on a sheep.In fact, if I weren't there, he might have actually been courting.Seeing his lewd expression, it was like seeing Shi Shifu's brother's copy.Although they are not alike in appearance, it makes people sigh: they really deserve to be brothers!After all, the nature of the character is still the same. "Having a baby will solve everything. Mom and the others can't say anything more! Don't delay for a moment, start taking action as soon as possible! If you want to adopt a gentle policy for grandpa, if you don't have children, it's just empty talk!" "If you are pregnant, you can convince your mother and aunt!" Luna sister shook off Fujitaka's hand.Now that she has stared at me and asked this question, I have no choice but to say again: "In order to convince the mothers of the two families, I think we must first win Brother Shishifu and Sister Wu to become our companions. Instead of risking the big family The danger of both abstaining from the competition for heirs with the Zhong Zhijiang family will cause both sides to lose. It is better for the two families to work together and share the property together. As long as we convince everyone in this way, I think my mother and aunt will listen to us." Luna sister said so, and nodded frequently in agreement.She told me that Sister Wu should be dining in a restaurant at the moment, and she should strike while the iron is hot, so she urged my brother and I to ask her to help us. (During this period, not only sister Wu was eating at the restaurant, but brother Shi Shifu was also in there. Although I knew it well, I couldn't explain it to them.) On the way from the annex to the main building, I caught a glimpse of my grandfather passing through the corridor.Holding the bottle of sake, he excitedly headed towards the main house, intending to secretly drink and have fun alone without telling Aunt Huruno and Mrs. Juzi.Everything went smoothly according to the "schedule". Fujitaka-san and Luna-san, who were walking in front of me, were just concentrating on talking and didn't seem to notice my grandfather's figure.That's good, and then, if you find some excuse to hold them off before evening, you should be able to prevent the murders from happening.If it can be proved that these procedures can effectively prevent the murder (in other words, this incident was committed by Brother Fujitaka and Sister Luna), then just let the remaining six rounds repeat the revised procedures of this round, and finally substitute "Decision Edition", everything is safe.In this way, grandpa will avoid the fate of being killed and spend this day smoothly. "Oh! What a coincidence!" After entering the restaurant, Shi Shifu's brother and Wu's sister had dinner together.Sister Luna said very happily: "It's great that both of you are here!" "Yo! What's the matter? Little Luna! Seeing me so happy? I'm so happy!" Brother Shi Shifu waved his hands with his chopsticks in a frivolous look. "Come, sit! Sit beside me. Come! Come!" "Hey! Both of you listen to me." Sister Luna ignored Shi Shifu who was waving warmly to her, and sat down opposite the two of them.As a matter of course, Brother Fujitaka sat beside her. "Little Q's brain flashed, and he came up with a great idea!" "What's wrong with Q Taro?" Apparently, the combination of my name and "superb" doesn't exist in Shi Shifu's vocabulary. "?" "It's the problem of the successor of the Yuanshang family! Xiao Q provided an idea, which can solve the chaotic situation in one go! That's it..." Sister Luna explained to them the "great-grandson" battle plan I proposed earlier in the form of her own explanation.Although it was originally my idea, she seemed to have chewed it all over and made it her own.She was playing with the earrings she just brought back, because she didn't have a pocket on her body, so she couldn't put them away, let alone only one side, and it wasn't suitable for wearing them.Compared with my poor eloquence, the tone and tone of her explanation of the plan were more convincing. "Huh!" Brother Shi Shifu seemed to feel a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and sprayed rice grains from his mouth, as if to express his protest. "What, what? What does that mean? Then, Xiao Luna, you mean, have you been dating my brother for a long time? Is that so? It's too much! It's too much!" Because I was too excited , The grains of rice in Shi Shifu's mouth branched from the trachea into the nose.Then, in pain, he held up his nose with a tissue.Brother Shi Shifu opened the dirty tissue, stared at it blankly, and then sighed helplessly. "What do you take my innocence for? It's miserable! It's really miserable! Brother's movements are so fast. You fouled!" However, Shi Shifu's elder brother's protest was nothing more than a trivial matter, and everyone present just followed with wry smiles and ignored it as a joke.What matters is what happens next. Sister Wu suddenly slapped the table vigorously and stood up abruptly.We on the side froze in place without knowing what to do.The earrings on Luna's sister's hands also fell on the table due to excessive shock. "I hate it! I hate it! I hate it! I hate it! What! It's too much!" Sister Wu cried and yelled loudly like a child losing her temper. She grabbed the dishes and threw them on the ground. Screams mingled in the air at the same time. "This is too much! Too much! Too much! Too much!" "What's the matter? What's the matter, sister?" Sister Luna timidly arched her body, realizing that she was in danger, so she involuntarily leaned back: She thought, if she wants to calm her sister down, she must Standing up, in this situation, she showed a look of embarrassment. "Sister! What, what's the matter? Ahhhhhhhhh. The plates are all broken!" "I don't care about the plate!" Mai-san climbed onto the table and slapped Luna-sister.Mai sister's weight caused the table to tilt and wobble, and the utensils squeaked harshly. "You... this..." "Don't, don't be like this, don't be like this, sister." Sister Luna was grabbed by her hair, and this time it was her crying, like a high-pitched glass, coming in and out from her throat. "Don't do this! Don't! It hurts! It hurts! It hurts!" "You woman, you woman!" Sister Wu screamed and slammed her younger sister on the cheekbones.She spread her fingers, as if trying to gouge out her eyeballs.The situation in front of me made it hard for me to imagine such a miserable scene in this world. "If only you were dead! You bitch! It would be best if you died! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!" "It hurts! It hurts! Sister! Don't do this! Stop, stop, stop! It hurts!" "Stop, stop! Hey! Stop!" Brother Shi Shifu finally rushed to the front of the dining table, threw himself at Mai sister, pulled her away from Luna sister's body, and passed his hands under Mai sister's armpit, He tightened her grip from behind and restrained her temporarily. "Didn't you tell me to stop? Xiao Wu! What's wrong with you? Hey! Don't do this! Hey! Don't do this again!" "Stop! Hey, Luna." Brother Fujitaka also desperately pulled Liu Rong away from Mai.When Sister Wu was restrained and unable to move, she took the opportunity to rush forward and grab Sister Wu.The two sisters don't want each other. "I told you to stop! Hey! Calm down! Calm down!" "What's the matter? What's the matter? What is this doing?" Aunt Hu Runai, who heard the noise, walked into the restaurant with a rare serious expression.Mrs. Juzi also followed. "What's wrong? What's going on here?" "You idiot!" Elder sister Luna probably didn't hear Aunt Hurunai's reprimand, and while cursing elder sister Mai, she burst into tears. "Idiot! Idiot! Are you out of your mind? What! You'd better die!" "Shut up, Luna!" Aunt Hurunai felt that she was scolding too much, and made a rare sharp angry sound. "What did you say to your sister?" "That's because this guy is too much! She did it first, and I obviously didn't do anything. I'm not wrong. It's not my fault!" "Really, how old are you? You two are so different!" The speechless Aunt Hurunai waved her hand and left them alone, as if to say that if they wanted to quarrel, let them go.Just go out and beat me if you want to fight, and she gestures to imply that she will drive them all out. "Both of them have grown up, but they are still so childish. I'm sorry, Mrs. Juzi, I have to trouble you to clean up." "Ah, ah, no, that..." Brother Shi Shifu was the most considerate among us, he hurriedly took the broom and dustpan from Mrs. Juzi who was about to clean up the debris of the tableware. "It's fine for us to clean it. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, it caused such a commotion." Mr. Tsuchiya and Ms. Yuri arrived here later, and mother and Auntie Ye Liuming also hurried towards the restaurant, but grandpa did not show up.Perhaps it was because the commotion could not be heard clearly from the attic of the main house!The mother who rushed over nervously asked Brother Shi Shifu what was going on with the commotion just now, and he covered it up with a firm and tough attitude: "It's nothing, nothing happened, it's over, it's over!" "You are so treacherous! Luna." The words of Mai sister once again solidified the tense atmosphere. "Why? Why are you always the only one who takes advantage? It's always like this. Why is it that you are the only one favored? Why? Why? What's the difference between you and me? What's the difference, tell me!" Although the content of the speech was aimed at Younger sister, Tanmai sister's eyes wet with tears, stared clearly at Fujitaka brother from the beginning.Although Sister Wu said these words, in fact, she did not speak to anyone present at all, but fell into a state of talking to herself.She seems to be locked in her own world, cut off from the outside world, and exudes a dangerous atmosphere. Anyone can see at a glance that she has a daunting and sinister personality. "What's different? What's different? Where is it?" Sister Wu staggered and walked out of the restaurant coughing.Aunt Ye Liuming yelled for her to wait, and ran after her worriedly.Sister Wu yelled, "Don't follow me, go away!" The shout echoed in the corridor. Sister Luna finally understood the reason for her sister's madness, she suddenly became disoriented, looked at Fujitaka brother blankly, and then stared at the direction where her sister disappeared. "That is to say..." Although Aunt Hu Liunai didn't know the ins and outs of the incident, she probably understood the cause of the incident.She looked at brother Fujitaka's expression, making fun of him as if it had nothing to do with her. "The two sisters of Zhongzhijiang's family are fighting each other because of Fujitaka, right? Hehe! I really can't tell! Fujitaka, when did you become so popular?" "That's right! Brother! You're too cunning!" Brother Shi Shifu was full of complaints as he packed up the pieces of tableware.Although he pretended to be joking, he couldn't hide the fact that he was greatly shocked. "That is to say, are Xiao Luna and Xiao Wu both obsessed with my brother? What a surprise! I don't know at all! In fact, I have always been a good man!" "Young girls don't understand what's good about you. It's absolutely true." Brother Shi Shifu didn't know whether he should be happy or not after hearing this.After Aunt Hu Runai smiled and comforted him, she walked out of the restaurant, followed by Mrs. Juzi.Mr. Tsuchiya and Ms. Yuri made a judgment at the moment, thinking that under such circumstances, it would be better for them not to be present, they nodded and left silently.Sister Luna secretly watched Fujitaka's expression and movements, but under the pressure of her mother's silence, she finally had to leave the restaurant. "What's the matter with you guys?" As if waiting for other outsiders to leave, the mother moved her face closer to the brothers and said. "Could it be...although it's unlikely...you are not really fascinated by her, are you? You are fascinated by that stupid daughter of Ye Liuming, and the two of you are together..." Judging by the appearances of the two elder brothers Come on, they didn't intend to deny it, and Mom's anger grew stronger. "Stupid...are you stupid? You two are really... how old are you and still act like children? As long as the other person is a little more beautiful, you will be obsessed with ghosts? Don't you think you are useless? Polish it up Your eyes!" "But, Mom," according to the usual practice, the one who dares to talk back at this time is definitely Brother Shishifu, and when Mom starts to complain, Brother Fujitaka will be silent. "Whether it's me or my brother, as long as one of them marries Xiao Luna, you should be willing to accept it!" "You, what are you talking about? Shi Shifu, what are you talking about?" "That is to say," Brother Shi Shifu said triumphantly, taking the thought that he had just heard from sister Luna as if he had made such a plan a long time ago. "If the son of the Da family family and the daughter of the Zhong Zhijiang family can be united, wouldn't the relationship between the two families become harmonious? If a great-grandson is born again, grandpa will be very moved. Maybe he hopes to let the same family It is the best policy for the couple to inherit the Yuanshang family for their grandchildren! " "Don't lie, if things are so easy to solve, life won't have to be so hard." Although my mother has objections, she seems to be quite satisfied with Shi Shifu's idea (strictly speaking, it was originally my idea). Can agree, so showing a shaken look.She was calculating that under the current circumstances, instead of having all her property taken away by outsiders such as Mr. Chitsuya and Ms. Yuri, it would be better to reconcile with her sister and continue to work together. "Anyway, cheer me up, both of you, and stop lusting. And Q Taro, too, don't open your mouth in a daze, acting like you have nothing to do with yourself." At this time, why did my mother suddenly point the finger at me and implicate me. "You, too, will encounter this problem one day. At that time, if you are deceived by a woman's appearance, it will be terrible! You must cultivate the vision of a woman who appreciates you. Do you understand? If you don't do this, You will regret it forever." The so-called too late to regret, are you talking about being like a father?Although I wanted to say this ironically, it might complicate the gradually calming situation, so I chose to remain silent.Not long after my mother left, Brother Fujitaka also left.Judging from the direction he left, he should have chased after Luna sister.After thinking for a while, Shi Shifu shrugged his shoulders and returned to the table to continue eating.The previous commotion caused the plate on the table to fly out, he cut up the grilled fish on the plate and put it in his mouth, as if nothing had happened. I was surprised and admired by my brother's behavior.At this time, I suddenly noticed that the item that should have been placed on the table was missing, that is—Runa's sister's earrings.Because of Mai-san's atrocities earlier, Luna-san was frightened and dropped it on the table.It should not have been picked up after that, because Luna sister didn't have that kind of leisure time at all.Logically speaking, it should be so, but there is no sign of it.Where did he go?Didn't Mai-san accidentally fall to the floor when Mai-san jumped onto the table and slapped Runa-san?I was thinking and trying to find it, but I couldn't find it anywhere.Brother Shi Shifu saw me crawling around on the floor and asked, "What are you doing?" I have an ominous premonition in my heart.I don't know how to describe it specifically, and I don't know how ominous it is, I just feel inexplicably uneasy.I thought to myself, maybe a little change of mood would be better.I planned to get some fresh air, so I walked slowly to the atrium from the heated house.The cold air outside froze my skin, and I clutched the sides of my jacket, walking in the atrium. Where did Fujitaka brother and Luna sister go?I suddenly cared about this.Originally, he planned to follow closely behind the two of them today, but he was distracted by the turmoil, and lost sight of them after a little carelessness. Maybe I went to the annex again... I suddenly thought of this, and although I didn't want it in my heart, I still peeped in the direction of the annex from the window.The two of them were indeed inside, looking more disappointed than surprised.They were not indulging in the romance, but seemed to be discussing something important, with very serious expressions.I think it should be talking about Sister Mai. All in all, it couldn't have been better.我只要看守着别馆人口，就能监视富士高哥哥和瑠奈姊姊的动态。要是这样能让两人到傍晚前都不接近主屋，就能平安回避外公遇害的事件了。正当我放下心，寻找监视用的适当隐匿地点时，我的目光忽然被吸引到走廊方向。 那是舞姊姊，她正从主屋的方向往本馆走去。她的步履摇晃，有如没有重量的魂魄般缓缓飘移著，而且失魂落魄地凝望着空中。 舞姊姊为何要到主屋去……之前的不祥预感再度袭来。在大闹餐厅后，想必她打算暂时回到自己的房间。但叶流名阿姨从她后面追了过去，她身为妈妈，打算要安慰她，然而，对女儿来说，妈妈之所以这么做只会更加令她郁闷。于是她出人意表地逃到主屋的方向——我想事情应该是这样吧？如果真是这样最好。 问题在于，从舞姊姊的表情来看，她完全未从原本的激动状态跳脱出来。不仅如此，我甚至可以感觉到，沉淀在她周围的空气相较之前更抑郁沉重。既然这样，她又为何要离开主屋，会走到那里，不也是为了沉淀心情而躲藏吗？而她完全无视于（立在中庭正中央的我，这点也显得相当不自然。发生了什么事吗……那股不安的预感，让我焦躁不已，我等待著骚动发生。但是，等了又等，宅邸内还是万籁俱寂，丝毫没有即将发生骚动的迹象。我开始觉得，或许是我想太多了！ 应该是什么事也没发生——我改变了这种想法。原因在于，如果这一轮必须和前一轮的时程相同，这时叶流名阿姨就会因为发现外公的尸体，而引起一连串的骚动。但是，宅邸内仍是一片寂静。如此说来，或许会一如我当初的期许，安然无事地回避外公遇害的事件…… 当我思考著这些事时，我总算发现自己出错了。在前一轮，叶流名阿姨是为了商量遗嘱的事，才进入主屋去找外公；而她会到主屋去，主要是因为留亲姊姊告诉她，说是看见外公进入主屋；因此她成了尸体的第一发现者。而第一发现者，通常会是第一个被怀疑的，这可是犯罪搜查的第一步。“如果自己是第一发现者，那就不妙了。”——对于有这种想法的瑠奈姊姊等人，叶流名阿姨当时的行动刚好让他们顺势避嫌。但在这一轮中，至少不可能是瑠奈姊姊他们杀了外公，他们并没有这种时间上的余裕，这我最清楚不过了。这么说来，瑠奈姊姊也无须刻意将叶流名阿姨引到主屋。最重要的是，阿姨现在只忧心舞姊姊，根本不可能去找外公商讨大事。 我回了本馆一趟，穿过走廊，朝著主屋走过去，通过空无一人的厨房后，缓缓爬上楼梯。 阁楼房的门是开著的，外公倒卧的身影映人了我的眼帘。外公的脸朝下，倒卧在棉被上。我量了量脉搏，发现他已经死了。与前一轮一模一样。 主要的不同处，在于这次不见蝴蝶兰花瓶的踪影，取而代之的，是那个一升装的清酒酒瓶。仔细观察瓶身，便可发现表面沾著白发以及类似血迹的物体。看这样子，这东西可能被用来殴击外公的头部。 另一个不同处在于，外公的姿势虽然与先前相同，左腕压在腹部底下，右手揪著榻榻米。不过，有个物体掉落在他右前方的地板上，那是个浅土黄色印章形状的物体——瑠奈姊姊的耳环。 我跑下楼后，朝着本馆的方向奔去，脑筋突然一片空白。一回过神时，发现自己走到友理小姐的房前。就在我正要敲门时，友理小姐打开门出现了。她圆瞪双眼，望著上气不接下气的我，似乎想问我有何来意。 “警察……”我终于说出来了。“请叫警察来……” —— Notes: --
