Chapter Two Thousand and Twenty-Six: The Elephant and the Giraffe
Tezuka Shota, an old wife and a young husband, married and living with a woman fifteen years older, a fitness instructor, usually has extraordinary enthusiasm, even for strangers, it is twelve points of effort, whether it is good or bad, there is an almost paranoid optimism.
Does such a person really exist in real life?
Kuroshima thinks it doesn't exist, so Shota must be performing, and it's going very far.
However, Kuroshima really underestimated the changes in the residential buildings, and to some extent, Shota is also an unreasonable guy. You must know that in the original book, Kuroshima first killed his wife, and then he was going to kill him. And Shota, who had always wanted revenge, hugged Kuroshima in the end, not only throwing his oath of revenge out of the clouds, but also saying that he would use his hug to influence Kuroshima. Of course, he is not the Virgin Mary's disease after all, after hugging Kuroshima, he sent Kuroshima to prison.
Some people say that as a civilian, what can you do if you really catch the murderer? Is it still a lynching if you don't send him to prison? It's not that it's wrong to send Kuroshima to prison, but that there is a problem with Shota's change of attitude. Before you know the murderer, or even before you catch the murderer, you don't know it. But in the end, he seemed to have an epiphany, let go of hatred, hugged the enemy, and smiled.
From hatred to smile, it only takes a second, and there is no foreshadowing at all.
So Shota is not a normal person, it's just that someone else's is a little citizen who becomes a murderer in a second, and his is a little citizen who becomes a virgin in a second. It's all abnormal transformation, it's all quite blunt.
However, in Kuroshima's opinion, Shota was acting from the beginning, and his acting skills were clumsy.
As for Duran, Kurishima said that Duran was normal because she was too abnormal, after all, she was a murderer, and the more evil she was, the more afraid she was of being known, so she had to pretend to be normal on weekdays, and only in this way could she act in secret. People like Duran are too eye-catching, the whole person is exposed to other people's field of vision, and being noticed by others, how can there be any chance to do bad things?
So it must be Shota, Kuroshima doesn't want to listen to the arrangement of artificial intelligence, she wants to uncover some of the truth by herself. Using the method of elimination, there were only two families who came to the apartment at that time, either Duran or Shota.
Shota was down to blood mold, and he had no idea that Kuroshima was going to deal with him.
When he returned home, he found his wife tied to a chair in the living room and her mouth gagged with duct tape. He stepped forward to loosen the tie, but found his wife whining in horror, desperately hinting.
But it was too late, no matter how strong Shota was, he couldn't stop the sneak attack, and he was knocked unconscious by a stick from Kuroshima, who was hiding.
And when Shota wakes up, he will have to face the choice of 'giraffe' or 'elephant'.
It turned out that Kuroshima had prepared two bottles of poison and attached them to the arms of the two of them in the form of hanging drips. And there are stickers on the valves of the two bottles of poison, the one on Shota is the 'elephant', and the one on Nana Tezuka is the 'giraffe', and the one who chooses will die.
At this time, their husband and wife were tied up and couldn't break free, and their two lives were in the hands of Heijima.
"How did you escape?" Shota didn't understand, how could someone who had been arrested come out?
"I want to ask you this question, since your family came, everything here has become weird, first the killing game, then the mysterious phone call, and the unreasonable killing in the air, everything is you who are making trouble, right?" Kuroshima said honestly, otherwise let them choose to die first.
"What the hell are you talking about, it's clear that you're the murderer. "Shota is confused, what is this woman talking about, why is the wicked person suing first? Obviously he is the murderer, how can he say that there is a problem with their husband and wife? If there is a problem, he will not be tied up here.
Of course, Shota does think that what has happened recently is strange, but this cannot be caused by one person at all, it is caused by everyone's slippery mind. He doesn't know what the murder case is, he only knows that the exchange murder case, that is, the tragedy caused by the residents not keeping the moral bottom line, what does it have to do with their husband and wife?
Nana also said: "Miss Kuroshima, I know you must be sad, but only if you turn yourself in, the police can help you, you can find a psychiatrist." ”
"Shut up, if you don't want to admit it, then say goodbye, elephant or giraffe?" Kuroshima threatened: "Choose, don't tell the truth, you two can only live one, say, who keeps calling and threatening me?"
Shota realized that things were far from that simple, it seemed that Kuroshima had really encountered something, but it was a pity that their husband and wife knew: "We really don't know, we are ordinary people, buy a house and live here." ”
Nana was scared and said with a crying voice, "I really don't know. The other party is a terrible murderer who brutally killed three innocent people, and he really kills: "Why doubt us, Duran and we also moved in at the same time. ”
Kuroshima said as a matter of course: "He can't be, do you think he looks like he's going to do bad things?"
It's not like it, because he's too cynical.
It's not that it doesn't look like it, it's impossible: "He's so smart that he deduced the murderer." Nana said why it wasn't Duran, his wisdom fully allowed him to plan all this, "If you don't have evidence, you can't assume it's us." ”
Nana is an ordinary woman in the end, and she still pulled Duran into the water when she was in danger.
But Black Island still felt that Duran was impossible.
Nana finally had no choice, and sacrificed the big killing weapon: "Look at the people in this building, which one was as maverick as Duran before the accident? Everyone waits until something happens to reveal their true nature, and in normal times, everyone desperately tries to hide their true side, so what Duran is showing now is definitely not his true nature, he is just covering up the truth in an exaggerated way. ”
It can be seen from this that even if everyone is changing, Duran is definitely an alternative change, a different change.
Kuroshima didn't use big data for reference, but just compared Duran and Shota. But if you put them in a residential building, it is true that as Nana said, the characteristic of the apartment building is that it is an ordinary change, which is usually not shown, and the incident will be exposed.
And Duran usually behaves very differently, unlike other cases in the apartment. If you think about it this way, Duran is indeed suspicious.
"How do I know if you're lying?" Kuroshima hasn't ruled out the odd couple's suspicions: "You have to prove your innocence." ”
It's just ridiculous, how can they prove that they are not the murderers? It's as ridiculous as if they didn't receive the delivery, but they were asked to take a picture to prove that they didn't receive the delivery.
How can there be evidence, there is no such thing at all.
However, Kuroshima has already lost his heart, and if there is no evidence, then he can only die. Die one, and the rest can tell the truth.
Shota and Nana are both in despair, and in the end they can only look at each other affectionately, anyway, they are willing to give their lives for each other.
