Chapter 14: Murder (7)
Well, anyone can see that this kind of grand opening and leaving is definitely not something that a 'normal human' can do.
At the very least, normal humans shouldn't suddenly disappear...... Right.
Then, judging from the food in this room and the various scenes outside the window, it seems that one has to believe that everything here is shrouded in some kind of 'supernatural' power.
To sum up, it seems that the cause of death of those who died does not need to be too entangled, after all, everyone will fly and teleport, so take things through the air, cross the wall and cross the ground, and chop up individuals with their bare hands...... It should be fine.
Oh, after all that, I seem to have forgotten that our little brother [Kudo Shinichi] is still roasting in the fire......
"Fight the fire!" Ziliang suddenly shouted.
At the same time, Moriarty had already carried a bucket of water and poured it on the fire with a clatter.
As for the water, it naturally came from the bathroom in the bedroom, and the bucket was the trash can in the bedroom...... Thankfully, the trash cans in these bedrooms aren't hollowed-out, otherwise, the fire might not have been extinguished.
In this way, Ziliang and Moriarty didn't care about figuring out where Sherlock was sacred, and the two of them held buckets and filled water back and forth, and it took a lot of effort to finally extinguish the fire.
After the two of them sat on the ground with a disgraced face, the lamp on the ceiling of "Click~" trembled a few more times, and then finally lit up.
What the? Why didn't Mrs. Marple, you ask, help? Nonsense, her body is barely a level that can walk, you let the bucket of water go back and forth, and one accidentally falls on the fire again, and when the time comes, the fire is not extinguished, but it fills a lot of fuel for others.
Mrs. Marple was also sensible, and sat on the sidelines, without causing trouble to the others.
......
After a few minutes...... Ziliang and Moriarty finally took a breath.
As for Shinichi Kudo...... Don't think about it, Zhun Bao is dead, if the fire hadn't been extinguished quickly, he might not even be able to leave a whole corpse.
Mrs. Marple walked over: "It seems that it is obvious that we must have been kidnapped by some mysterious force, the one called [Sherlock. Sherlock Holmes is the author of all this. ”
"Hmm~" Ziliang took a breath: "Although it seems like this, but ...... Why? ”
"What, why?"
"That's it..... This supernatural force, or why did [Sherlock] do it? Ziliang asked.
"Well, it's incomprehensible, but since [Sherlock] has abilities that we can't understand, then he must have a reason that we can't understand." Moriarty continued lightly.
"Well, that's an explanation, but ...... I always felt that something was wrong, as if all this had nothing to do with the supernatural. Ziliang said to himself again.
When Marple heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head: "Hehe, okay young man, I know it's hard to believe, but it's happening right in front of my eyes, so ...... We should learn to accept that we're all smart, aren't we, not necessarily 100% not the best of the man with supernatural powers. ”
"Hehe, you seem to be eager to convince us that all this is the work of that [Sherlock]." Ziliang suddenly laughed and interrupted her.
Marple paused for a moment: "What? It's as if I'm seduting you—do you still want to explain this with common sense? ”
"Of course not, but common sense may not explain everything, but even things that are not rational will always have their rules...... Ziliang said.
Then......
"Oh? Seemingly, what new discoveries have you made? Moriarty asked lightly.
"Yes, in fact, if we are careful, we can find that there are not many things that do not make sense here, just the scenery outside the window of each bedroom, and these things to eat." Ziliang pointed to the table full of food and said, "But, these are all inconsequential things......"
"Uh...... What do you mean by 'irrelevant'? Marple asked.
"That's it...... The view from the window of those rooms was different, but I couldn't think of the point of its existence, after all, we couldn't open them, so ...... At best, they let us know that this villa is not ordinary. Ziliang explained: "And the food on that table, in fact, is just so that we don't starve to death here." But it is paradoxical that there are people who don't want us to starve to death, but who ignore our other ways of dying.
So, with all that said, you should be able to guess what's going on here:
That's ...... There's a game going on here! ”
"Race?"
"Yes, this is a game, in fact, at the very beginning, Kudo Shinichi put forward this point of view, he felt that the villa we are in is a place similar to the 'Colosseum', and we are just engaged in a battle of trapped beasts, but our way of fighting is not to use knives and guns to cut, but to ...... Murder! ”
As soon as these words came out, the rest of the people present ..... Forehead...... I didn't seem to be too surprised.
"Well, actually, I thought the same way before, after all, the deaths of [Polo] and [Kanedaichi] can be explained by common sense." Mrs. Marple said, "However, it was not until the body of the house was found that I began to believe in supernatural powers, because the death of the house was unexplained, there was no murder weapon at the scene, and the murderer did not leave a blood stain outside the room, which was simply impossible." ”
"No...... Yes! At this time, Ziliang suddenly said.
Marple frowned: "Hehe, can?" Well, can you please explain, what is the murder weapon? Don't say what kind of ice blade it is, it will melt away after killing someone, it's okay to kill a person, it's impossible to divide the corpse, and it's definitely not a bone knife, let's fight the corpse afterwards, if there is extra bone, it will definitely be found, and the bone knife is sometimes not as strong as the ice blade. ”
Ziliang nodded: "Of course, the murder weapon is not those things that are rotten in reasoning, the murder weapon is a knife, a sharp, steel knife, although there is no way to chop bones, but as long as there is a certain technique, it is still easy to cut the fascia of a person's limbs from the joints or cartilage." ”
"Hehe, that's interesting, what about the murder weapon? The murderer was a magician who swallowed the knife? Or is it simply gone? Marple shook his head helplessly and said.
Unexpectedly, Ziliang nodded: "Yes, it's gone......"
(Actually, the killing method here is quite easy to guess, so you can think about it more...... Ticket. )
