Chapter 109: The Second School-Level Judge (8) Self-blackening
At the time, I was about to ask Yamada Ichizo and Enoshima Atsuko what they were doing last night. Hearing Sayaka Maizono's voice, I couldn't help but turn my head and look in the direction of Sayaka Maizono in surprise.
"Kitchen knives?" I knew why, but I was still a little surprised, "Wait a minute...... What do you do hiding a kitchen knife in your bedroom? ”
"Well...... "Kuwata Reien explained with a scratch of his head, "the first motive for the release, which was the night that Asahina-chan was killed, Maihara-chan mentioned it to us. She said she kept a kitchen knife in her bedside table just to be on the safe side. ”
"And then to be on the safe side, will you all move in and sleep together?" Hibiki Kiriko asked.
"But if the four of you slept together, you wouldn't need a kitchen knife in your bedroom, would you?" Hibiki Kiriki looked at Sayaka Maizono coldly, "And, since this thing is in the bedside table drawer in Maisoon's bedroom, why did you find it in the kitchen at the end?" ”
"Why...... It's actually very simple," I said with a sneer, "the murderer quietly took this kitchen knife and put it back in its place after killing someone?" ”
"But last night, the bedroom door of the Dance Garden Hall was locked, and the murderer can only be the people in the Dance Garden room, right?" Yamada Ichizusan pushed his glasses exaggeratedly, raised his finger in the direction of Naeki Makoto, and roared angrily, "So! The Seedling Hall over there! What else do you have to say! ”
"Huh?" Enoshima shield looked in the direction of Naeki Makoto in surprise, "Could it be ......?"
"Indeed," Sakura Okami's eyes widened, her hands clenched into fists, and she muttered to herself, "The only people who went out in Maien-kun's room last night were Naeki-kun and Fujisaki-kun." If it's not Fujisaki-kun, then the murderer is Naeki-kun......"
"No...... No! Miao Mu Cheng waved his hand in surprise, sweating profusely, "I just went out for a spin, and I didn't kill anyone!" ”
"Hmph, still want to quibble?" Yamada one-two-three shouted angrily, "Then you say!" Who else but you can kill with a kitchen knife! ”
"But I have a problem," I said, "number one...... The Ten Gods White Night was nailed to the wall thirty centimeters above the ground, and with his height of 183 centimeters, the height was already more than two meters, right? Are you sure...... Is this a height that can be easily reached by Makoto 160 cm? ”
"Hey, hey, hey......" Miao Mu Makoto scratched his face lightly with one finger, his face turned red from shame, "Onikawa-san, although thank you for speaking for me, can you ...... the height problem?"
"Maybe he's got some kind of stepping up......" Sakura said with her hands around her.
Is this a stepping stone to hope?
"I've measured it," Hibiko Kiri added, "and the tallest footing in the gym, plus 160 centimeters, doesn't reach 210 centimeters." Therefore, Miao Mujun can't reach the Ten Divine Monarchs. ”
"Hey...... Mr. Kirikiri...... Don't make up for the knife like this......" Seeing the people around him snickering secretly, Miao Mu Cheng's face became redder and redder.
"Without further ado," I said, "the Ten Gods and Naemi are both boys, right?" How should seedlings enter the women's gym? And Fuyuko Fukawa has been staring at the door of the library, and next door is Owada grained soil, how can Namiki Makoto bypass the surveillance? ”
"And ......," Owada Monto said, scratching his head, "maybe, it wasn't necessarily the boy who took the kitchen knife, right?" Yesterday when I was carrying Fujisaki on my back and coming back with Onegawa, I found the door to your bedroom...... It doesn't seem to be locked. ”
"Maybe it's because the Seedling Hall had already returned at that time, but he didn't bring the key?" Yamada one-two-three looked inquiringly in the direction of Naeki Makoto.
"But...... Naeki-san's departure was ahead of me...... "Chihiro Fujisaki said, "And I deliberately locked the door and threw the key back into the room through the crack in the door!" ”
"You...... What did you say? Ishimaru Kiyotaxia was dumbfounded, "Could it be...... During this time, have Kuwata-san and Maiyuan-san been alone in the same room? ”
"Huh? (What?) Maizono Sayaka and Kuwata Reen first exclaimed in unison, and then their faces instantly turned red. Naeki Makoto's eyes widened in surprise.
Hearing this, Ishimaru Kiyotaxia seemed to be even more energetic. He held up a hand, "It's too much!" Male and female students shouldn't live in the same dormitory, let alone a lonely man and a widow ......"
Seeing that Yamada Ichitozo and Sho the Exterminator made a "there should be a book here" expressions, I coughed twice and decided to bypass the topic.
"That's even weirder," I lowered my head in thought, "Fujisaki, can you be sure that Makoto Naeki definitely left the bedroom before you?" ”
"Wait......" Naeki Makoto's eyes revealed a faint, but not obvious horror, "Onikawa-san, you mean ......"
"Yes!" Chihiro Fujisaki nodded very affirmatively, "I slept on the bunk at the doorway, and I planned to wait for the others to fall asleep before going out." At that time, Miao Mu quietly stepped over my head, and I remember it very clearly. ”
"Speaking of which," Owada Wentu blushed a little dissatisfied, and his fists were bruised, "you guys! How can you let a weak girl sleep in the doorway! ”
I really have nothing to say about weakness. But for the rest, there are big problems......
"So, Owada-san, after you sent Fujisaki-san back to the dormitory, did you notice how many people were in the room?" I asked Owada Monto, "Did you find the key?" ”
Owada Monto scratched his head and replied in a very affirmative tone, "I can guarantee that the key was not found." I was a little concerned when I saw Fujisaki laying a bunk at the door of the dance garden room, so I went to take a look, and everyone was sleeping in the dormitory, and they slept quite deeply. ”
"Huh?" Miao Mu Makoto covered his mouth in surprise, "Could it be ...... Is it because I slept too soundly and didn't notice someone coming in? ”
"So Maiyuan-san, where did you put the kitchen knife?" I asked Sayaka Maizono directly.
"Huh? It's in the bedside table drawer to the left of the bed......" Sayaka Maizono thought and pointed to Kuwata Reen, "Well, that's right, it should be directly above Kuwata-san's bunk." ”
"Ah...... Huh? Kuwata Reen once again showed a dumbfounded expression, "Is it appropriate to put such a dangerous thing on top of my head?" ”
"You can't put it under the pillow...... Celes covered her mouth with one hand, and looked at Kuwata with a faint disgust.
"Didn't you notice that someone had opened the drawer above your head?"
"Nope."
"Fujisaki-san and Naeki-san left the dormitory separately, and then Naeki-san didn't know when he came back, and you didn't pay attention?"
"Nope."
"Fujisaki-san, I don't know where I took the key, don't you know?"
"Nope."
"And then Fujisaki-san was sent back by Owada-san, and you didn't notice either?"
"Nope."
"Owada-san's rummaging around didn't disturb your sleep - oh, you don't have to answer me anymore for this question, you must add 'I don't know'......"
"It's difficult, isn't it ......" Maizono Sayaka covered her mouth and shouted softly, "It's impossible to ......"
But...... Next, the person I least expected to say said something that shocked the audience:
"Actually...... I took the kitchen knife.
