Chapter 417: Duran VS Lelouch
"Suzaku Shuki?" Duran stood outside the cage, looking at Suzaku whose freedom was restricted.
"Who are you?" Although he was dragged to the execution ground several times, he did not die, and he also figured out something unusual.
"I'm D, I'm a detective!" Duran said, "I'm sorry to keep you on the execution ground, but I think the real murderer will be there soon!"
Suzaku looked at Duran, his eyes full of gratitude, "I know, someone will prove my innocence." "Suzaku has no resentment about being caught. Even though he was frightened several times, as soon as Duran stood up and said this, Suzaku was relieved again.
"Look at your face, you must have been beaten. Now that the army is in the hands of the pure-bloods, even Her Royal Highness the Second Empress can't completely restrain them, and it's normal for you, an honorable Britannian, to be 'taken care of', Suzaku, do you resent Britannia?"
Although he didn't know why a detective asked him this question, Suzaku replied, "We have a grudge against anyone, because things are bound to get better." ”
It's really a relieved person, Duran doesn't know what to comment on people like Suzaku who don't have a consistent ass and position, everyone has something to believe in, even if it is not recognized by others, it is not easy to be able to hold on.
"Suzaku, bear with me for two more days, I will catch the murderer!"
The time was just right, and when Duran returned to his residence, the second princess arrived with a middle-aged man.
"You let me find someone!" said the Second Princess, pointing at the man.
"Ditohart Little. "This man is the producer of the television station, an active journalist.
"Mr. Little, you're the one who escorted the prisoners live?"
"Yes, sir!" said Ditohart, who was facing the guests of the Second Princess.
"This thing, I hope you can broadcast it then. Duran took out a USB drive and said.
"What is this?"
"You'll know when the time comes!" In fact, the contents are the things that Duran stole the limelight from Lelouch.
"It seems that this time, you are confident and have a chance to win, D. "The second princess is running out of patience.
"The moment of truth will soon be revealed, that's my instinct as a detective. That's why I prepared this thing early, there is no perfect crime in this world. Duran said.
Ditohart on the side set off a storm in his heart, could it be that the person in front of him was the world-famous detective D. Unexpectedly, in order to investigate the murderer of the third prince, this person was invited. But D is so young, thirty at most. I thought that the person who could write those novels and solve the world's biggest crimes would be an old man in his fifties and sixties.
So it seems that Suzaku is not the real murderer, but a bait? Interesting, Ditohardt is a little looking forward to what is in the USB drive in his hand.
Lelouch took action when he saw the news, first by calling himself Zero, and then by finding the rebels through Guò Kalian. Then, under the pretext of showing his strength, he fooled the people of the resistance group into assisting him in kidnapping the wronged Suzaku.
The show is finally about to begin.
The convoy transporting the prisoners was in charge of the soldiers of the pure-blood faction, and the second princess did not come forward, on the one hand, her visit to District 11 was still secret, and on the other hand, it was Duran's Jianyì. Duran said that because he didn't know the murderer's methods, it was better not to go out in person for safety.
Cornelia agreed, too, so she stayed with Duran in the distant command car.
He was put in a prison car again, and Suzaku said that he was used to it. There were many onlookers standing on the side of the road, all scolding Suzaku loudly.
Most of these abusives are honorary Britannians, who are content with the present environment and do not want to be affected by the war again. They don't necessarily support Britannia, but because they don't see the possibility of defeating Britannia, they choose to live quietly, and of course they don't give a good face to those who ruin their lives.
Suzaku knelt on the prisoner cart, his head bowed and motionless. He wears a device around his neck that restricts his voice.
"Your Highness, a car is coming!" Suddenly, the person in the command car noticed the movement, "It's the hearse of His Royal Highness the Third Prince." ”
"Impossible!" cried Conelia, her brother's body was still frozen, how could there be a hearse.
"It's coming!" said Duran, with an unexpectedly expression.
"The murderer?!" the second princess immediately realized what Duran meant, "Arrest them!"
"Wait, I don't know what their next move is, I guess the prisoner won't be so resourceless. That hearse might have been full of bombs. ”
"What, is he crazy? Don't want to live?"
"It's not necessarily that you don't want to live anymore, maybe you want to threaten us to release people. The prisoners don't have a lot of leverage, so it's likely that they'll risk their own lives and those of the civilians. If Britannia were to be charged with disregard for the life and death of an honorary citizen, it would have caused panic again. So wait and see what happens. Duran was talking about the Tao, and he knew that Lelouch's hearse was actually a fake gas bomb. However, it is still necessary to let Lu Lu Xiu be in the limelight in order to make himself more happy.
At this time, Kalian, who was driving a papier-mâché hearse, had sweaty palms, too nervous, too exciting, and if it was exposed, it would be dead. And they will die a terrible death.
All eyes fell on two cars, a prisoner's cart and a hearse.
TV's Ditohart was so excited, big news, this is big news.
From the hearse rises a man dressed in black, with a black cloak and a black mask and helmet, and the camera catches a close-up of the person.
Such a stylish appearance made everyone's eyes look at this person, the onlookers, the audience in front of the TV, and the soldiers opposite.
Surprise, curiosity is hard to put into words.
"My name is Zero. Lelouch spoke slowly.
"Zero, this man claims to be Zero. "The TV reporters are dying of joy, and they have got the big news.
However, the second princess looked at Duran strangely, how could this name be the same as the code name taken by Duran, is it a coincidence, or D
Colluded with this murderer before?
At this point, Zero attracted everyone's attention, civilians, soldiers, and rebels.
However, the soldiers who escorted Suzaku would not always let Zero be in the limelight, and they immediately surrounded Zero, "No matter who you are, raise your hands, no, take off your helmet first!"
Lelouch smiled confidently under the mask, and the carriage of the hearse opened, revealing a container.
The soldiers in Britannia were shocked, they knew that it was a gas bomb, "Bastard, what the hell are you trying to do?" If the gas leaks, hundreds of thousands of people will die in this city.
"Of course, I'm here to tell everyone the truth, and I'm the one who killed the third prince!" Lu Luxiu made a high-profile admission that he was the murderer, causing an uproar.
"You know what you're talking about, aren't you afraid we'll shoot you right away?"
"Kill me, you'll regret it!" Lelouch had already thought of a way out, that is, to use Geass to control the officer, and then take advantage of the chaos to escape.
"What orange, Jeremiah had absolutely no idea what Lelouch was talking about.
"Free the Suzaku and assist us in our escape, including the man!"
"Yes, release the prisoner!" Jeremia's order shook everyone's jaws even more, and his inertiveness made his men hold up in disbelief.
But in the end, Lelouch and Suzaku still stood together.
Then purple smoke was released from the container, and the scene was chaotic, and with Jeremia's cover, Lelouch took Suzaku and Karen down the road, and under the answer of the fan, they fled.
But the matter of ten minutes or so is simply a turning and turning, which is dizzying, and such a thing is simply unprecedented.
"I didn't expect it to be successful?" The members of the resistance group were all shocked, they thought it was a death operation, but now it really succeeded, and they didn't know what to say about this out-of-tune action.
It's incredible that just three people can accomplish such a big plan.
The name Zero has left too many unforgettable images, the stylish outfit, the king's tone, and the wild plan, although it seems that if it weren't for the help of that orange, he wouldn't have escaped, but the fact is that he succeeded. It's already exaggerated enough.
But tonight's business isn't over yet.
Just when everyone was still amazed and puzzled, the picture of the TV changed.
"Detective, let me see how you respond. Detohart remembers what Duran asked him to do.
The picture changed, a large artistic font 'D' appeared, and then Duran's voice came out.
"Presumably everyone already knows the real murderer of the third prince......"
What's wrong? I just watched a good show, why hasn't the scene ended? Who is talking on TV?
Once again, TV has caught everyone's attention.
"I'm 'D', a detective ......"
What the hell is going on today, before it was a criminal who openly admitted that he was the murderer on TV and fled, and now there is another detective, what the hell is going on.
"Zero, you may think that your methods are flawless, but no crime is perfect, and it is impossible for you to keep your identity hidden since you shot the Third Prince. Although your identity and the means of your plan are still unknown, I can now be sure that you are in the Tokyo Concession. ”
The scope of the Tokyo Concession is much smaller than that of Tokyo, and although it is not easy to find an incognito celebrity, the main thing now is to frustrate Lelouch's spirit.
Everyone wondered why the detective was so sure that Zero lived in the concession.
"Because the news of the execution of prisoners was not broadcast simultaneously in the 11th district, but only in one place for a certain period of time, and the flow of this news was strictly controlled. This time, Zero You appeared after the news was broadcast in the Concession, which means that the only place where Zero saw the news was in the Tokyo Concession. From this, I can tell that Zero's settlement is there. ”
Reasoned and convincing.
At this time, Lelouch was also shocked, thinking that everything would be fine with geass, but he didn't expect that there would be such people in the world.
Karen had a complicated expression, she admitted that Duran was very powerful, but this time she was on the opposite side of herself.
It's just demonic, everyone was shocked, even more shocked than when Zero appeared. Because Duran's reasoning is bold and well-planned, although it is only the approximate area where Zero is located, it is something that can finally determine this without any clues, and it is really powerful.
"Worthy of a detective. "But this was prepared before Zero appeared? How did he know the name of Zero? Could it be an unpredictable prophet?
But Duran's reasoning isn't over yet.
"Judging from your size, the weight of your steps, the skin on the backs of your hands, and your height, you should be about eighteen years old. As for why I wore a mask, I also made some speculations. As a terrorist, of course, I wanted to have more attention and exposure, but you put on a mask, and unlike ordinary terrorists, it can be seen that you did not wear a mask because of your intention, but for the purpose of protecting some people around you. So you should have at least one loved one that you hold dear. That's probably why you can't leave the Tokyo Concession. ”
Duran said this, Lelouch's back was wet, this detective was so terrible, as if he already knew himself. That's right, if it weren't for the fact that Nanali wouldn't have been injured, Lelouch wouldn't have worn a mask.
"I can deduce from the above conditions that Zero is around 18 years old, male, living in the Tokyo Concession, and has one or more relatives at home. ”
Even though there are many such people in the Tokyo Concession, they still can't find Leluxiu, which makes Lelouch breathe a sigh of relief, but his heartbeat still hasn't slowed down. Because if Britannia really followed Duran's reasoning, he would have come into their sight sooner or later.
"Zero, I will definitely find out how you manipulate people's hearts, and bring you, the murderer, to justice, and restore the world to justice to the deceased. ”
The events of this night are too fantastical, as unreal as a novel, but it really happened, first the zero of **, and then the wonderful reasoning of the mysterious detective. It's all so exciting, there must be a lot of people tossing and turning tonight. (The previous one written in the future is a preview.,It's different from this chapter.,Forgive me.) )
