"Like?"

Gao Yuan repeated the word emphatically, and asked Tie Zhuyu for confirmation.

"Because, indeed, I'm not sure."

Tie Zhuyu said, "It's just that I feel this way. ”

"But it's not just feelings."

Ooka Momiji stepped forward and said, "After all, Keiko was indeed attacked. ”

"Attack? What's going on? ”

Gao Yuan asked with a little surprise.

Ooka Momiji glanced at Tie Zhuyu, and then said to Gao Yuan: "Mr. Wise, in order to better explain what happened, please come with me." ”

With that, Ooka Momiji and Iori turned around and walked towards the position of the elevator, and seeing this, Tetsu Zhuyu also followed. In this regard, Gao Yuan didn't ask much, and after patting the footprints of the leather shoes kicked out by Tie Zhuyu on his clothes, he also followed.

The four of them quickly got on the elevator, pressed the button on the third floor, and waited for the elevator to rise to the inpatient department on the third floor.

"By the way, your kendo is quite powerful."

In the elevator, Tie Zhuyu, who was standing next to Gao Yuan, glanced at Gao Yuan, and said in an arrogant tone, "It's the first time I've met someone who dares to use the 'True Sword White Blade'. ”

As he spoke, he seemed to be a little admired.

"Thank you. But you're still better. ”

Gao Yuan thought for a moment and replied, in this regard, Tie Zhuyu did not continue to say anything, but the eyes that looked at Gao Yuan were not as hostile as before.

Soon, the four of them came to the inpatient department on the third floor, and Gao Yuan followed Ooka Momiji and the others towards the inside, and came to a single ward.

Seeing this, Takato was a little clear - that is to say, Ooka Momiji would come to this hospital, not just because of Hattori's relationship.

Ooka Momiji was standing outside the door, about to knock, but Iori Muji came up, stepped forward and knocked on the door, then stepped aside, waiting for a response from the hospital room.

After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no answer, Ooka Momiji muttered, "Are you already resting?" In this case, it is inconvenient to bother. ”

Then he turned his head to look at Gao Yuan, and said without apologies: "I'm sorry, it seems that we didn't come at the right time." Let's talk in a different place first. ”

In this regard, Gao Yuan didn't have much to do, and when he was about to nod his head in agreement, the panel text appeared in front of him at this time:

"Stage 2: You have found out that the flower giver is the eldest lady of the Ooka family, a famous family in Kyoto, through the clues of the bouquet of flowers given to Hattori Heiji, and you have also established a good relationship with them. Now, you have come to Keiko's hospital room together, and you knock on the door and get no answer, and you feel that something is wrong."

"Phase 2 has commenced, settlement of Phase 1 is now commencing"

"Knowledge: S"

"Logic: A"

"Social: C"

"Stage 1 Overall Assessment: B"

Seeing the text content of this "Stage 2", Gao Yuan suddenly showed a surprised expression, and a bad premonition hit his heart, so he didn't answer Ooka Momiji, but squeezed directly to the door and knocked on the door again.

Looking at Gao Yuan's expression at this moment, Ooka Momiji was also a little surprised, and without asking anything, he directly made way for Gao Yuan, and he retreated to the door, looking curiously at what Gao Yuan planned to do.

"Were you visiting patients in this ward before I met you in the underground park?"

Still not hearing the response in the ward, Takato suddenly asked Ooka Momiji.

"yes, what's wrong?"

Ooka Momiji asked puzzled.

"Were the patients in this room asleep at the time?"

Takato asked.

"No, when we left, Keiko's spirit was quite good."

Ooka Momiji said.

"That's weird."

Gao Yuan frowned, "For such a short time, there is no reason." ”

As he spoke, Takato had already put his hand on the doorknob of the ward—it was an "L" handle, and he could open the door by pushing the handle down.

Carefully, Gao Yuan only put the palm of his hand on the outermost side of the handle, and then pressed the handle down hard, so that the door of the ward was opened.

Slowly pushing open the door and looking in, all I could see was a hospital bed surrounded by bed curtains on all sides.

Then, Gao Yuan walked in, and subconsciously glanced behind the door, before walking to the bed curtain and reaching out to lift the bed curtain-

"Call the doctor! Also, call the police! ”

After only one glance, Gao Yuan shouted to the people outside the door with a solemn expression.

"Wait a minute! What happened! ”

After listening to Takato's words, Ooka Momiji said puzzledly, and Iori frowned slightly, and then said, "Okay, leave it to me!" ”

With that, Iori ran in the direction of the nurses' station.

And Ooka Momiji and Tie Zhuyu seemed to understand something, showed surprised eyes, and were about to come in to take a look, but they were stopped by Takato at the door.

"You ...... Or don't look at it. ”

Shaking his head, Gao Yuan said helplessly.

Hearing Gao Yuan's words, Ooka Momiji covered his mouth with his hands in shock, as if tears were rolling in his eyes, and then turned around and ran to the seat in the corridor and sat down, crying silently.

And Tie Zhuyu was very strong, raised his head, and looked at Gao Yuan with resolute eyes.

"Let me in!"

In a serious and heavy tone, Tie Zhuyu said.

"She's my friend!"

Looking at Tie Zhuyu's serious, pretending to be strong eyes, Gao Yuan couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted, and then, silently took a step back, let Tie Zhuyu walk into the ward, and lifted the bed curtain, looking at the person on the bed-

This is a girl of the same age as Tie Zhuyu, with short brown hair, lying silently on the hospital bed with her eyes closed - it's just that on this girl's body, there is a dagger stuck in the quilt at this moment!

Tie Zhuyu looked at the scene in front of him in a daze, was speechless for a long time, and then silently walked to Gao Yuan's side, looked at Gao Yuan with resolute eyes, and then came to the corridor and sat down next to Ooka Momiji.

Gao Yuan looked at the two girls who were sad in the corridor, sighed helplessly, took out his mobile phone, and took a serious picture of the situation at the scene.

Soon, Iori called the doctor and nurse, and seeing this scene, without any hesitation, the girl on the hospital bed was rushed to the emergency room.

However, it didn't take long for the rescue to end - it was discovered too late to be able to recover.

This is something that has been expected for a long time, and Takato has no surprises about this result - it's just that if Ooka Momiji and the others visited the girl named Keiko in this ward before, then it is obvious that the time frame for the girl's murder is only a small period of time, so it should not be difficult to find the murderer.

However, looking at the two girls who were in grief on the side, Gao Yuan knew that it didn't make sense for them to say these things - a friend who was alive a few minutes ago became a corpse in the blink of an eye, and this blow was unacceptable to anyone.

Therefore, Gao Yuan could only stand silently beside them, waiting for the police to arrive.

"Now, you're a detective, aren't you?"

Suddenly, Tie Zhuyu looked at Gao Yuan and asked solemnly.

Looking at Tie Zhuyu's slightly murderous eyes at this time, Gao Yuan did not answer in words, but just nodded and admitted his identity as a detective.

"In that case, please, Mr. Detective!"

I don't know why, Tie Zhuyu said.
