At half past ten o'clock in the evening, it was finally time for dinner, and Gao Cheng finally had the opportunity to replenish sugar, and the happiest time was at this time, even though it was rare to use the one-minute detective mode, the habit of supplementing sugar continued.

Xiao Wai quietly kicked Gao Cheng, who was eating sweets, at the bottom of the dining table: "Don't go too far......"

"Yes."

Gao Cheng took a sip of the sweet soup.

Russian dinner is not very customary, and it is very comfortable to eat a few dishes, but you can't ask for too much when you go out.

"It's already 11 o'clock......" Xiao Ai sat and looked at the time.

After the meal, the dessert time passed quickly, not so much as eating dinner but supper, Xiao Ai almost didn't eat, just tasted a few bites, drank some soup, and the sweets were not touched, all in Gao Cheng's mouth.

"yes," Gao Cheng said with a full burp and looked at the empty seat opposite, "Mr. Kami hasn't been to the restaurant......"

"I said I was going to my room to eat," Koji Takada said with a smile, "but I must have fallen asleep drunk!" ”

"He's been absent from the quintet several times because of that, and he's actually become a quartet lately......"

Inukai Takashi discussed a few times, and the plump Kaoru Umezono seemed to be very uninterested in Kamito Tadashi: "It's because of that that his wife is fed up and wants to divorce." ”

"Haha, Mr. Plum Garden, if Mr. Kamimei hears it, he will write a column about us again, right?"

"He dares!" Kaoru Umezono patted the table and said, "I've had enough of it a long time ago, and I even said that my award-winning work was plagiarized!" ”

"Forget it, forget it, Miss Mei Yuan," Youyue Laimeng persuaded with a smile, "You haven't had a new work to be said like this, don't you rely on your work?" ”

Kaoru Umezono gritted her teeth and sat back, but pointed her gun at the masked man who looked bleak next to Youyue Laimeng.

"Hey, Miss Moon, why does this magician named Roseth wear a mask when he eats? It's disgusting......"

"This mask ......," the masked man chuckled as he held a goblet, "and it's just as ...... as my face right now."

The atmosphere at the scene fell silent, except for the dream of the moon that seemed to be confident, the other candidates all had different faces.

Gao Cheng also drank tea silently.

As a guest who has been invited, it is better to keep a low profile and not interfere with superfluous things.

The housekeeper Tashiro helped to add tea.,Suddenly saw the maid Kirie want to push the dining cart back.,Worried.,The dinner plate is still on the car.。。

"What's wrong? Tongjiang, didn't the god teacher eat? ”

"Well," Kirie said distressedly, "I called him and no one responded, and if the god teacher fell asleep, he would definitely lose his temper again if he was woken up, so ......"

Kirie wanted to bow his head.

The mustachioed god Tadashi had already molested her once after he was drunk, and everyone looked at her and sneered at the god who looked like a master.

This kind of person seems to be inherently easy to hate.

"Sleep?" Gao Cheng's brows jumped, "Does he really sleep at this time?" ”

"What's so strange," Koji Takada said disapprerovingly, "That guy has been drinking a lot of alcohol before......"

Gao Cheng ignored Koji Takada, stood up and left the table and said, "To be on the safe side, let's go see him first, housekeeper Tashiro, please take the key." ”

"Good, good ......"

The housekeeper left in a hurry, and Mei Yuan Kaoru also changed his face: "Hey, Detective Chenghu, will you be too sensitive, can that guy still have an accident?" ”

"Perhaps......"

Gao Cheng thought a lot, including various signs of coming to the Lucia Pavilion.

If it's just him making a fuss, once something happens, it is very likely to cause a series of incidents and add a lot of trouble.

Kamimei Zhongzhi's room was above the dining room, and Gao Cheng followed the maid Kirie Xiangzi to the door, and before the housekeeper could bring the key, he found that the door was not locked, and he vaguely smelled blood.

Gao Cheng opened the door with a slight gaze.

The thunder cut through the darkness, and a headless corpse sat on a chair with its back to it, its head with round eyes falling to its legs and feet, and looked straight at the door, dark red blood flowing to the ground.

"Don't come here!"

Gao Cheng stopped everyone with a serious face, and his gaze quickly swept across the room.

The brutal murder scene, as if the murderer was demonstrating, was so simple and direct to show the body in front of everyone, and Koji Takada, who came from behind, turned pale in an instant, and couldn't help retching, and even couldn't stand under the intense fear.

"How so? How could the god teacher ......"

"Judging from the bleeding situation, it should be that someone cut off his head after death, and the cause of death is probably a blunt blow to the back of the head......"

Gao Cheng entered the scene alone, first examining a collapsed head in the back of his head, and then looking at the corpse leaning against the back of the chair.

In the bosom of the corpse was a Lucia doll, which happened to be the one with a double bass in the reception room......

"Is it Ivan for the double bass?"

The masked man walked directly to Gao Cheng's side, not surprised by the appearance of the corpse at all, but very interested in the puppet, and several people outside looked even more uncalm when they heard this, and they all turned their eyes to Gao Cheng at the inspection site.

In any case, Gao Cheng is an expert in this area.

"Let's go to the reception room first," Gao Cheng frowned when he saw the masked man, and instructed everyone according to the procedure, "Before the police come, everyone should not enter here casually......"

"Well, Detective Joto," the lawyer hesitated, "can you put Ivan back in the reception room first...... Anyway, this puppet is a clue arranged by Yamauchi Sensei, and it's better to put it back in its place......"

Before Gao Cheng could speak, the frightened Takamada Koji said in fear: "Mr. Lawyer, this has been put together with the corpse, do you really want to take it back?" ”

"The game has to go on, right?" Daisuke Aritou said distressedly, "And Mr. Yamauchi also said that no matter what happens in the middle of this inheritance competition, it will last until the teacher's birthday, which is ...... at 0:00 in 5 days."

Koji Takada and several other candidates suddenly stopped talking and silently organized a group to go to the reception room of the bell tower.

After Tashiro's housekeeper locked the god's room, Gao Cheng also followed a few people with Xiao Ai, and found that not only the double bass Ivan was in the reception room, but the other 4 dolls were also taken away by something.

Koji Takada sat or stood, his expression became more and more uncalm, only the high school student Inukai Takashi and the beautiful illustrator Yuzuki Laimeng couldn't see any expression.

"Ladies and gentlemen......"

Tashiro's housekeeper and maid Kirie pushed the black tea into the reception room and served cups of tea to everyone.

"Drink some Russian black tea, it can calm down somewhat......"

"How can it be calm?"

Mei Yuan Xun trembled and lit a cigarette, her face was not very happy, but she still took a cup of black tea and drank it.

"Why would the prisoner do that? After killing someone, you have to cut off your head......"

"Maybe it's just a metaphor," Inukai Takashi said, holding his arms, "At the morning meeting of the orchestra, the heads were cut off in the order from front to back, and the previous Lucia dolls were arranged from low to high, and the bass mentioned that Ivan was the shortest of the five dolls......"

"Difficult, could it be that the god teacher was killed according to the meaning of the verse?"

"Wait...... Wait a minute! Koji Takada said in horror, "In the order from front to back...... Isn't the second shortest one being Emir, who is also a cello player like me? It won't ......"

"You're still so cowardly, Mr. Takada," Yuzuki said with a smile, "It's just that the god sensei was killed alone, and it looks like a serial kill......"

"Lucia's puppet murder incident," Inukai Takashi interrupted Yuzuki's dream with a trace of sweat unnaturally on his face, "It's in this early masterpiece of Yamauchi Sensei, there are 5 people who have been compared to Lucia's dolls and killed one after another, and no one survives except for the real murderer 'commander', don't you think it's too coincidental?" ”

The terrifying atmosphere spread in the reception room in an instant, and Koji Takada, who was quite familiar with Yamauchi's works, could not control his facial expression because of fear, and said in a trembling voice like crying and laughing: "I just need money, but I don't want to lose my life, do you want to continue to compare?" ”

"When, of course," Kaoru Umezono forced her composure, "who would give up because of such a thing?" If you want to abstain, you can ......"

"Of course I won't." Koji Takada wiped the sweat from his forehead, and could only look at Gao Cheng.

I have heard that many of Gao Cheng's clients have a miserable ending when they encounter a case, I don't know if it's true, it's scary.

"Alright," the masked man, who had always looked like a transparent person, suddenly chuckled and stood up, "I'm going to rest first, after all, I still have to recharge for tomorrow's reasoning competition, good luck, quartet, you'd better lock your door, don't open the door casually......"

"You...... What does that mean exactly? ”

Kaoru Umezono watched the masked man leave with trepidation, and they all began to doubt each other.

In the villa in the middle of the lake, which is naturally isolated from the outside world, the possibility that the murderer is an outsider is very small, maybe it is between the people present, or even directly one of the remaining 4 candidates.

Before returning to the room to rest, Gao Cheng checked the condition of the key lock holder in the atrium again, carefully checked the situation of his room, and finally found a magic mirror behind a painting, which could see the situation of the empty room next door.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Ai asked.

"There is a problem with this villa......"

Gao Cheng covered the mirror with the painting again, and at the same time he was relieved, he suddenly felt strangely sleepy, and his heart was suddenly alarmed.

He has always been quite knowledgeable about his body, and it is likely that he has been drugged for this condition.

Gao Cheng thought of Koji Takada on the other side.

The client may become the second victim, whether this inference is correct or not, it may be dangerous......

"Xiao Ai, bring Mr. Baotian over......"
