423 is such a great teammate

"Looks like we're trapped on this island now......"

Standing on the broken viaduct in the North Island, the muscular man named Kevin spoke.

"Damn! Who the hell did it?! The eldest young master, Tone Guiyang, clenched his fist and hammered the guardrail next to him hard.

"Could it be the murderer who poisoned Mr. Yang?" Kansuke Tone asked.

"Who knows? Maybe it's someone from outside? Kevin shrugged his shoulders and said, "Hired by someone on this island to trap us on this island......"

In front of the three of them, Bai Heqing squatted down, squinted slightly, and carefully looked at the fracture of the viaduct.

"Is there any explosives stored on this island?" He asked suddenly.

"Huh? Ah, yes, it was left over from the time when the annex was renovated, and it is still in the warehouse......" Takahiro Tone replied.

"Detective White River, do you also suspect that the bridge was blown up by the islanders? Is it the murderer who poisoned Mr. Yang? Tone asked quickly.

"It's a possibility."

Bai Heqing stood up, his eyes still looking at a certain part of the broken bridge, and Mary beside him followed his line of sight and found that there was a small red wire wrapped around the railing of the broken bridge.

Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to get tangled in wires in such places, with one possible exception.

[Could it be the line of the bomb timer device?] In other words, the murderer may have been in the hall at the time of the explosion and detonated the bomb by remote control? 】

Of course, Bai Heqing didn't tell the three people behind him about this discovery, after all, he was not sure of the specific identity of the murderer now, and he didn't want to be remembered by the murderer just after he landed on the island.

"Who did it? Could it be that he is also eyeing his father's legacy and wants to trap us all on this island and kill us? ”

"Okay, okay, Young Master Guiyang, it's useless to think about this now, let's go back and explain the situation here to everyone first......"

Compared with the excited Tone Guiyang, Kevin on the side was much more free, he just shook his head and sighed, and then turned around and walked into the cave tunnel.

"Then I'll go back first, really, so I can't call someone outside to help us bring cigarettes......"

"Damn! Hangsuke! Go back! Hammered the guardrail again, and Tone Guiyang also turned to leave.

"Young Master Hangsuke, how many living materials are left on the island?"

Shirakawa Kiyoshi called out to Kosuke Tone, who was about to go back, and the three of them walked into the cave tunnel side by side.

"Don't worry about these two, the living supplies on the island are at least enough for us to live for a week."

Kosuke Tone replied with a smile, "And although the murderer has trapped us on this island now, not to mention the guests who were invited, our Tone family has always been in regular contact with the outside of the island before.

After a few days, people outside will probably notice what is going on here, and everyone will be able to leave. ”

Kansuke Tone thought that Kiyoshi Shirakawa and Mary were worried that they would be trapped on this island, so he patiently explained.

And Bai Heqing was not very worried at first, but after hearing his words, he was a little worried.

The island is well stocked, and there is regular contact with the outside world, and it takes a few days at most for people to be rescued from the island.

It is very likely that the murderer also knew this information, but he still chose to temporarily trap everyone on the island and cut off contact with the outside world.

Does this mean that the killer is confident enough to find the legacy in these few days and take it away from the island?

If so, what will happen to the rest of the island?

Thinking of this, the corners of Bai Heqing's mouth rose slightly.

The fact that the murderer is so confident is also a good thing for him.

This meant that he could see the heritage in the next few days, and then leave the island, complete the deal with the Black Rose, and return to Tokyo with the artifacts.

As for the murderer who might have done it to him?

Bai Heqing believes that regardless of whether the murderer can do this, on this island today, he and Mary's killing priorities are not so high.

According to past experience, when the murderer moved his eyes to him, Bai Heqing could almost determine the identity of the murderer.

And often when the development of the incident reaches this point, all he needs to think about is when to take the murderer down.

It's not how to do it, it's when.

Speaking of pride, whether it is fighting or shooting, although Bai Heqing has not practiced much since he was a child, he has not lost much.

"White River."

Walking at the back with Bai Heqing, when walking around a corner of the tunnel, Mary suddenly stopped and called Bai Ha Qing softly.

"What's wrong?"

Bai Heqing looked at her, only to see that she moved her foot slightly, revealing a few cigarette butts that she had stepped on the soles of her feet just now.

[Smoke? 】

At this time, the three people walking in front did not notice the movement of the two behind them, Bai Heqing squatted down, picked up these cigarette butts, and took a closer look.

"The cigarette butts are very new, one of them is still a little wet inside, and I guess they have only been here for a few hours...... Mary, do you suspect that the murderer threw it here? ”

"Hmm."

Mary nodded, then stretched out her finger and rubbed it in a slightly darkened spot in the corner, reaching out to Bai Heqing.

It is the pungent smell of gunpowder.

"That's where the killer probably made his own earthen bombs with gunpowder, then connected them to the detonating device and tied them to that viaduct......"

The two stood up and walked forward, and Mary continued to explain in a low voice:

"The gunpowder may have been taken by the killer from the warehouse of the Tone Annex, and the cigarette butts are also presumably left behind by the murderer when he made his own bombs.

Of course, even if there is enough gunpowder, it is impossible for ordinary people to make explosives with sufficient power, but there is one person who is an exception. ”

"Soldiers?"

Bai Heqing picked up her words.

"Are you suspicious of Clyde? But he probably didn't have the habit of smoking. ”

Clyde, a former British Navy major, may be the only retired soldier on the island, but Clyde doesn't smoke.

"No, there's another person."

Mary shook her head slightly, and gestured with her eyes to someone walking in front of them.

Kevin, the sturdy white male.

"He's also a soldier."

"Why are you so sure?" Bai Heqing asked.

"Observe." Mary pointed to her eyes, "I often came into contact with these soldiers when I was in MI6, so I should be sensitive to these people.

When I was in the hall before, I already felt that the aura on this man was different from ordinary people, and he, like Clyde, should be a retired soldier. ”

Well, Shirakawa Kiyoshi really doesn't know much about this part, mainly because he doesn't have much contact with usually, after all, when he was in Tokyo, he only had the most contact with prisoners and police.

But since Mary was so sure, he naturally chose to believe it.

"Got it......"

After listening to Mary's well-reasoned analysis, Bai Heqing's mood suddenly became much happier.

What an excellent teammate, which makes him, who has long been accustomed to "leading the whole game alone" in Tokyo, feel inexplicably very happy.
