Seventy, eighty, seven, the detective's guess, that's the truth
If you set it in advance and then act when the time comes, it will give the impression that you are deliberately making a move to attract the attention of others more than any other purpose. This is essentially the same principle as certain terrorist groups that have agreed to carry out terrorist attacks in different places at the same time. But the organization's actions were ultimately well concealed, so that even people like Levy, who watches the news almost every day, don't find any clues from the reporters' reports, which shows that the 'perpetrators' did not mean to attract attention, but rather tried to hide their own deeds. The reason why he was still caught by the tail of Kuroki Ganya is a mere 'mortal'. In addition to Kuroki's talent, I'm afraid it's just that the organization is acting too impatiently. It's like there's something that forces them to get there in the shortest time possible. Otherwise, if it's something that can be found slowly, they will stretch the time interval of each action a little longer, and try to make the timing of the news appear more normal, I'm afraid that Hei Tong will still be able to find it in the end, and that will be a long time later.
So if these things are done by a few people or even one person. So as far as Levy knows, I'm afraid the most suitable candidates are the two alien girls around him who come from the information integration mind. Nozomi Nagato and Ryoko Asakura, no one is better suited to this form of 'crime' than the abilities of the two of them. But Levy was sure that it wasn't the two of them. After all, even with the ability of the two of them, they can completely hide it from Levi, but the problem is that neither Yuki nor Ryoko has a reason to do these things. The purpose of the two of them is too clear, and there is no such thing as 'must' for anything other than the purpose. Just because this kind of thing might cause a lot of trouble and attract the attention of some people who like to talk weird, Levi believes that even Ryoko, who was originally a radical, would not do this.
Having said that, Levi just received a call from Haruhi Suzumiya the day before yesterday, and the head of the group, who refused to be quiet even after the holiday, said that he had made an appointment with everyone in the SOS group to carry out holiday activities. Levi listened to her tone as if he had discovered something interesting. Isn't it possible that what she found in Lianggong is exactly the same as Kurokiri?With the meticulousness of the girl who would run to the rumored supernatural location in the middle of the night to 'catch ghosts', maybe it was really possible to think of a group with Heitong, an expert.
"And the specific reason why I think these things are all from the same organization is a bit funny, in fact, it is just that I think the 'modus operandi' of these things are very similar based on the news reports and some details I have found, so I guessed so blindly. ”
Kuroki also scratched his head and smiled a little embarrassedly.
"Modus operandi?" do you mean that they are all disguised as 'natural disasters'?"
Levi thought for a moment, but he couldn't find any resemblance other than this. Meteorites from the sky, craters on the road cavern, and ball lightning that happened to enter through the windows and burned down buildings. It's true that these are all natural disasters. However, compared with common natural disasters, the probability of these events is particularly low, and the probability of people being struck by lightning is lower than that of people walking on the road, but it is particularly eye-catching.
"That's right, they're all disguised as natural disasters, and they're all very attention-grabbing and rarely happening interesting disasters. ”
"Why do they have to be so conspicuous and noticeable?"
Alice, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, she had been listening carefully to the two of them, huh? Levi was so engrossed in the conversation just now that he almost forgot to bring her with him today.
"Miss Alice said this, and that's what I couldn't figure out the most. ”
Kuroki pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and his tone was full of confusion.
"From the perspective of the style of acting, this organization gives people the impression that it is relatively coordinated and orderly internally, and tends to act in concealment. Too often should be forced to achieve their goals in a short period of time for some specific unknown reason. Of course, it is also possible that they themselves are too eager to achieve their goals, and they have already seen a certain amount of hope, so they can't wait and can't wait. ”
If it were the otherworldly people, they would be desperately looking to go back to where they used to live, right? But maybe it's just that they're used to hiding their identities and living among unsuspecting people, and they're too good at disguising themselves. If that's the case, the speculation behind Hei Tong that he seems to think may not be too big is closer to the truth.
"There is another possibility...... They may want to send a message to someone, or to a specific person, through these actions, and the criminals commit crimes, and through the media coverage, some people find out what they want to convey, and things like this have happened in the past. ”
Kurokirikanya picked up another newspaper from the table. The newspaper was a long time ago, more than ten years later, but it was surprisingly well preserved, and it didn't look much different from the new one.
"This newspaper was turned over from the warehouse of the printing house, which had some special printing work and its own warehouse was specially designed to be relatively tight, and the contents were relatively well preserved. ”
Listening to what Hei Tong meant, probably the printing house did some printing work similar to printing materials that required various difficult anti-counterfeiting techniques in addition to ordinary publications? Just looking at the well-preserved appearance of this newspaper, Levy at first wondered if it was bought by Hei Tong with someone who had a hobby of collecting old newspapers. But if it's a collector's collection, it shouldn't be this kind of ordinary appearance without any special treatment. At least wrap a layer of film, make a plastic seal or something. True enthusiasts will definitely do their best to protect their beloved things.
"Is that the case in the bottom right corner of the front page?"
The front page of the newspaper was nothing special, but it was a small tofu block in the lower right corner that made Levi notice it at a glance. However, Lévy was able to notice a report here, mainly because there were some words written on the side that were presumably speculated by Kurokumi, and a few simple patterns were drawn on the other side.
"That's right, it's this case, in fact, the case itself is quite simple, and the murderer was quickly caught, but it also caused a certain social impact at the time. ”
