Chapter 69: The End of the Opera House (2)
"Senior Arimori designed a timed mechanism with a crossbow gun, which will be activated at seven o'clock."
Gao Cheng took out the crossbow gun hidden in the doll.
"The seats in the dining room are set, and it's easy to kill Eagle Island Senpai by using this mechanism, so you're so nervous when you're forced to sit in Eagle Island's seat, because you know that there will be crossbow arrows shooting at you at seven o'clock...... But this was just for me to scare you, I found out before you came here. ”
"But how do you know it's going to be Arimori?" Mr. Ogata and his entourage also stood up and looked at Yuji Arimori, who was silent with his teeth.
"Obviously, right?" Gao Cheng said in a deep voice, "Because there is only one senior who can complete the entire serial murder incident, and only he can direct and act in the design of Geyue to commit suicide by jumping off a cliff."
"The murderer we were chasing at that time ran to the corner of the cloister, and there was only one way to get out, that is, according to his plan, he changed his shoes with mud and water, and threw them out of the window along with his mask and cloak ......."
Kohashi Ken said incredulously: "Could it be that ...... at that time?"
"At that time, Arimori who pretended to run from the opposite direction and knocked you down, only he could use this technique to make the fictional identity of 'Uratsuki' die, and as for the timing mechanism of the crossbow gun, it was also very simple for Senior Arimori who was in charge of the props."
Gao Cheng looked at Yousen, who still refused to admit his guilt, and before solving the puzzle, he didn't expect that this person, who was not bad, would be a serial murderer.
"At that time, you taught me to use the sound room, also to make it easier for me to record the sound, right? I think I did it when I went to get the script......"
"Why?" Everyone in the drama department looked at Youmori and said unacceptably, "Youmori, why do you want to do this kind of thing?" ”
"Why? Ha ha! ”
Arimori gritted his teeth and laughed, suddenly lifted the tablecloth, and held Takashima Tomoyo hostage with a knife.
"I want to ask why! Why did Pear Plus do that kind of thing, and these 3 sluts can still perform as if nothing happened?! ”
"Arimori, stop!" Everyone watched in horror as the knife was pressed against Eagle Island's neck.
"Shut up!" Arimori glanced at everyone fiercely, "How can you forgive these sinners who have driven Riga to their deaths!" ”
Gao Cheng opened everyone, his eyes swept over Takashima Yuyo, and quietly looked at the out-of-control Youmori: "Senior Arimori, are you really for Rika-senpai?" ”
"Of course!" Arimori shouted, "I've always liked Rika and secretly wanted her to become famous...... But everything was ruined by these 3 women! ”
Immortal Dao said: "But isn't that an accident? ”
"It was the three of them who caused the accident!" Arimori wept bitterly, "When Rika was still alive, she thought about forgiving them, and she didn't tell anyone the reason for her disfigurement, but they didn't feel guilty at all, and they happily said, 'I'm not wrong, right?' That kid always pretends to be a good girl, don't worry, and because of this, it's my turn to be the heroine......
"What a joke!"
Arimori hysterically strangled the neck of Eagle Island: "After Riga heard their words, she committed suicide the next night!" Committed suicide because he hated his fate...... So I decided to take revenge and kill these three people with my own hands for Rika! ”
"I'm sorry, woo......" Takashima Yuyo didn't dare to move at all, and closed his eyes in fear, "I'm sorry......"
Unlike TV, games, and novels, killing people in real life is not child's play, and the drama club of ordinary college students never thought that the classmates around them would actually go to the point of killing, and they were completely overwhelmed: "There is a forest ......"
"Do you have to kill someone?" Gao Cheng took a step closer, "No matter what the reason is, killing people will only bring more tragedy...... Moreover, Rika-senpai didn't commit suicide with hatred at all......"
"What?"
"The last opera house weird line that Rika Senpai recited, I remember was 'Although she is burned by the flames of hell, she still yearns for heaven', I am afraid that the reason why she committed suicide is that she does not want to fall into hatred like you now......"
"How can you possibly understand?" Arimori's eyes were red, "You're just an outsider!" ”
"It's true that I'm just an outsider, but there is a person here who cares about Rika as much as you do, and he originally wanted to help you take on the crime and stop you from continuing to kill......"
In the restaurant, everyone's eyes turned to Boss Kurosawa, who was silent with his eyes closed, following Gao Cheng's words.
"Rika is like a daughter to me," Boss Kurosawa sighed and looked at Arimori in a deep voice, "After Rika committed suicide, I also thought about revenge, but when Hidaka died, I knew that revenge cannot be relieved, no matter who dies, someone will be sad, Rika's mood, you and I should have found out earlier...... Stop, Arimori, just think it's for Rika. ”
"Mr. Kurosawa......"
Arimori's figure was shocked, his expression gradually calmed down, tears flowed down his cheeks, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a bang: "It's too late...... I've ......"
Shaking his head, Arimori jerked Eagle Island away, turned around and closed his eyes and rushed to the window on the edge of the cliff.
"Arimori!"
"Don't!"
Seeing Yousen break through the window and jump off the cliff, everyone in the restaurant exclaimed in surprise, only Gao Cheng dodged and grabbed Yousen's right arm.
Arimori hung out of the window, looked at the waves crashing below the cliff, raised his head in surprise, and looked at Gao Cheng, who gritted his teeth and clung to him.
"Why?"
"When you're dead, there's nothing." Gao Cheng endured the severe pain from his arm being cut by the glass, and tried his best to prevent Arimori from letting go.
……
At about ten o'clock, a boat came to the island, and the planned week-long rehearsal had to end like this, and the theater club and Kohashi Kenmi left the island by boat, and Arimori was also taken away by the police in front of everyone.
The cruise ship broke through the waves, the outline of the island gradually disappeared from view, and the seagulls along the road rose and fell as if they had just come to the island, but everyone on the boat was silent, and Takajima Tomoyo did not have the same vitality as before, and seemed to have suffered a lot of blows.
Gao Cheng saw everyone's appearance, and also sighed lightly and looked at the sea.
A good trip has become like this.,When I came, I was happy.,When I went back, there were 3 people missing.,Hidaka Orie and Kiryu Harumi were killed.,Yuji Arimori was taken away by the police.。
He doesn't have a Grim Reaper physique, it's just that this world is like this, not just Conan, but even the case in "Kanedaichi Boy's Incident Book" has also appeared.
Maybe it's just a coincidence, but he does seem to have seen it in Kaneda Ichiri before.
"Next time, don't just use the name Kanedaichi......"
"Huh?"
Seeing the doubts, Kobashi Xian looked at Gao Cheng, who was muttering, and opened his mouth, his eyes were complicated.
This trip hit him hard, Gao Cheng was obviously about the same size as him, but he single-handedly solved such a complex serial murder, and even avoided the third murder, and rescued the murderer who wanted to commit suicide, not living up to the name of a detective at all.
"Detective Cheng, Detective Chengto," Kenji Kohashi became firm, and walked to Gao Cheng's side with a deep heart, "Why did you try so hard to save Youmori in the end?" ”
"Huh? Need a reason for this? Gao Cheng looked back and saw Kobashi Kenmi's serious face, and was slightly stunned, "If there is any reason, it is because I am a detective......"
Gao Cheng racked his brains to recall the detective book he had read before: "Yes, it's probably that detectives can't watch someone die, even if the other party is a criminal......"
He's completely forgotten who said it, it's in those books in the firm's warehouse anyway.
“?”
Kobashi Kenmi looked at Gao Cheng who was standing in the wind unconsciously, and the impression he had on this day was too deep, and I am afraid that he would not be able to forget this famous detective who was about the same as a high school student in the future.
After a pause, Kohashi Ken exhaled and said, "Detective Joto, it seems that I'm still too far behind...... I've decided, I'll be a mystery novelist in the future, can I borrow the name 'Kaneda Kazuichi'? ”
"Ah, I don't have any opinions," Gao Cheng said unexpectedly, "It seems that being a mystery novelist also has a promising future." ”
