Chapter 136: The First and Final Puzzle (3)
Lu Yuan didn't know if all the people's brains were buzzing, anyway, he himself was surprised to grow his mouth.
"? And this reversal? ”
And Takeru Sato's retelling continues......
"At that moment, the old man's figure flashed, and no one should have noticed him, and of course, he should not have noticed that I had witnessed him in the attic.
After that, the servants of the Sato family were replaced by more than half, and once, the lord asked me, where was I when the little master died?
That was the only time in my life that I deceived my master. I said, I was in the kitchen at the time.
In this way, this matter has been hidden in my heart for thirty years, in fact, I originally thought that I could carry this memory until the coffin, but ......"
"But Ichiro Sato's death makes you feel that this matter can't be hidden anymore, right?" Lu Yuan said: "After all, your lord died of torture and killing, which is exactly what was in that letter. In this way...... You actually believe that Shuichi Sato's resentment is true, and you have long known that one of those deaths must be reserved for Ichiro Sato, right~"
"No!! I don't believe that the lord will do anything terrible to the little master, that day, it was definitely an accident when the lord was playing with the little master, and the master has always liked the little master, so ......"
"So you don't believe in [Soul Fall]?" Lu Yuan interrupted Ken Sato's words
"I ...... I ......" Uncle Takeru Sato, who has always been capable and confident, was a little unable to answer this question at this time.
"What you've seen with your own eyes conflicts with the deacon precepts you've always believed in in your heart, so you don't know what to believe, right?" Lu Yuan said as if he was fine.
Sato Ken took a deep breath: "Okay, anyway, now everything is over, no matter what I saw, or what the little master's resentment really did, it's all over, this is the best ending, so ...... Please leave and let the lord rest in peace. Tomorrow morning, there will be a boat to take you away. ”
But before he could speak.
"No! It can't just be done! Officer Twilight suddenly said, "What about those who died?" What do they do? ”
Of course, if you don't believe this statement, you can also give a reasonable explanation, or you can try to solve the mystery of the little master's letter first...... But even if you crack it, so what, the master is dead, do you still want to punish him? ”
"This ......," Twilight hesitated for a moment.
At this point...... "No! Conan shouted, and at this time he was still lying in Xiaolan's arms: "It's all nonsense about the soul descending or something." ”
This voice also brought Maori's words to the head.
"Yes, everything that happened in the back was all killing between people, and besides, Ichiro Sato's death must have come from a human being!"
"Oh?" Takeru Sato's attitude seemed to have changed, and he responded: "So, who will kill it, all the servants of our Sato family have been strictly adjusted and screened, and it is impossible for them to have any hostility towards the head of the family, and at this time...... The only outsiders on this island are you! ”
"Forehead ......", Maori and the others were slightly stunned.
"So, you mean, the murderer is between you guys?" Sato Ken said with a frown.
"No...... How is it possible, there is no reason for us to kill him. Mao Li said embarrassedly, and then, he suddenly thought of something, and then turned his head to look at Lu Yuan and Lu Li on the side.
This is a very simple elimination, the people of the Sato family will not kill, Maori, Twilight, Xiaolan and Conan will not kill either, and the rest of the tourists are dead, then, the only ones left are Lu Yuan and Lu Li.
Lu Yuan looked at him with suspicion.
Laughed softly: "Heh, what are you doing?" Doubt me? ”
Twilight walked up: "Mr. Lu Yuan, may I ask, where were you at the time of the crime?" ”
"I'm in the ballroom. Lu Li is also there, which Takeru Sato can testify to. Lu Yuan directly replied: "At about 6 o'clock, we met with Mr. Ichiro Sato, and after that, until the banquet began, there was only more than 1 hour, during this period, my sister and I did not have any time to commit crimes, and looking at the injuries on Ichiro Sato's body, as well as the amount of bleeding he had, it should not be able to be finished in a short period of time, so ...... Rather than suspect that the murderer is me, it is better to suspect that the murderer is among several of you......"
This time, it really made Maori and others speechless.
"This ..... It's ......," Maori scratched his head.
"I see! If it weren't for us, and if it wasn't Lu Yuan, then the murderer must be ...... You! He shouted, and pointed sharply at Takeru Sato.
"You are the housekeeper of the Sato family, so, you must have a lot of time to create a secret room, or ponder the murder method, just an hour ago, you broke away all the servants, and then killed Ichiro Sato, and that letter, as well as the so-called [Soul Descent], are all your handiwork, as for your motive for killing Sato, it is that you witnessed the death of Shuichi Sato back then, so your master has always held a grudge!"
Maori yelled with righteous words, and I have to say, it's quite imposing.
But......
"Uh...... But Brother Maori, he was in the banquet hall all the time at the time of the crime. Twilight reminded a little embarrassed.
"Huh?" Maori was also stunned.
"Also, since he is the housekeeper of the Sato family, he has a chance to kill Ichiro Sato, why do you have to rush at this time. Besides, if he was just trying to avenge the little master, it would be enough to kill Ichiro Sato alone, so why did he forge that letter? We guests have nothing to do with Shuichi's death......"
This series of soul torture also made Maori look confused.
Takeru Sato's expression was unusually cold......
"Enough!" He shouted, and then, no longer following the obedience of Mori and the others, he picked up Ichiro Sato's clothes, gently covered his body, and closed his eyes with his hands.
"I don't care what you think about this series of things, but...... The body of the lord can't always be like this, and the things behind the Sato group can't be delayed, there are wills, funerals, and the economy of the entire country may change because of the death of the head of the family, and these things can't be delayed...... This is what the old man personally explained to me after he was diagnosed with cancer. ”
Takeru Sato said, and then, without looking at the others, "I'll ask one last time now, do you still think that all this is done by humans?" ”
"Of course!" Everyone said in unison.
"So...... Do you think the murderer must be among you? ”
"Yes!" And they said.
Takeru Sato nodded.
"Okay then...... Since you all think that the murderer is among you, but you can't find the murderer...... Then, you should all be buried with the master. ”
He said lightly, then took the placket and covered Ichiro Sato's bloodless face.
Got up and walked out of the room.
Only the bewildered crowd was left.
"? Can it still be unfolded like this? ”
