Keiko Hatoyama naturally knows the boy's character.

If the case hadn't been investigated to a certain extent, although the boy would have come to the hospital to see her, at most he would only ask about her condition, and there wouldn't be so much spare time to stay here and peel apples slowly.

This can only show that the boy may have already investigated the case this time.

"It's all about looking it up."

The boy's answer was the same as Keiko Hatoyama had expected, and he cut off a small piece of apple again and handed it to her, and said slowly:

"I think this incident may be related to some cult organizations."

"Chewing ...... Sure enough? Hearing this, Keiko Hatoyama nodded, then turned her head and ate the third apple that the boy handed over to her.

Yesterday, when she heard that the body of the deceased described by Kokarsuma was tied up in a "prayer" position, she already had this speculation in her heart.

It's just that because Keiko Hatoyama knew too little about the situation at the time, she herself couldn't be sure of this guess, so she didn't say it in the end.

Perhaps due to the influence of various negative factors after the war, countless cult groups, large and small, sprung up among the Japanese people at that time.

These groups are hidden in the dark corners of the city, using different but similar methods to brainwash and manipulate the so-called believers for profit.

Over the past few years, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and local police agencies have invested a huge amount of police force in order to eradicate this phenomenon, but unfortunately, due to various reasons, the final result has not been very good.

"If my guess is correct, Kyoko-san's death should be a well-planned murder, and the real murderer of this murder may be her parents......"

At this point, the boy's hand cutting the apple paused briefly, but quickly returned to normal, and he cut a small piece from it and handed it to Keiko Hatoyama.

"The reason may be that the Muraki couple want to pull their daughter into the cult they believe in.

According to the information we have learned before, a few days before Kyoko-san was killed, her mood at school was quite abnormal, and according to her tablemates, she spent almost the whole day in a daze and looked like she was in a trance.

It should have been in those days that Kyoko-san first learned that her parents were members of a cult group, and they even had the idea of letting her join the sect as well.

I don't know what the reason is, maybe it is that Kyoko-san herself rejects these beliefs, or maybe there are some perverted behaviors in this cult group that she can't accept.

In short, Apricot-san must have refused, not only that, but she was afraid that she also had a conflict with her parents because of this incident.

This is also the reason why Kyoko-san's mental state was abnormal a few days before she was killed.

And this kind of conflict also quickly fermented in those days, maybe Kyoko-san threatened her parents and asked them to quit the cult group, or maybe her parents chose to obey the instructions of this cult group and wanted to get rid of Kyoko-san who was very likely to threaten the group.

Anyway, after Kyoko-san's school came home the night before, they did it.

The overall process is not complicated, because there is a possibility that Kyoko-san herself will be killed by someone seeking revenge.

According to the report I received from the forensic department this morning, Kyoko-san's body has a large amount of narcotic residue in her body.

They are supposed to have used anesthetics to stun the defenseless Kyoko-san that night, and then transferred him to the cemetery, in front of the tombstone of Hanada-san, who had been bullied by Kyoko-san to commit suicide, and killed him unconsciously.

There are three purposes behind this act.

One is that they want to use Hanada's tombstone as a cover to disguise their murderous crime to Mr. Hanada.

After all, although Hanada-san was not directly killed by Kyoko-san, but also because of her, Mr. Hanada once begged for an explanation for his daughter's death at the Muraki family, and was finally perfunctory by the police in charge of the investigation at the time.

It stands to reason that Mr. Hanada has sufficient motivation to kill Kyoko-san, and is a perfect backbiter.

It only takes the matter of dealing with Kyoko-san and then making Mr. Hanada 'disappear' by the way, so that all this can be reasonable.

The second reason why Kyoko-san was tied up in a 'prayer' posture, I don't really understand the situation of these religious beliefs, but according to my personal guess, they risked being seen by the police to make Kyoko-san's body look like this, and I am afraid it was also for some kind of warning purpose to the believers inside.

It's like, 'See?' This is the end of rebellion and opposition to our God'...... of this feeling.

Of course, it is also possible that Kyoko-san's parents were brainwashed too deeply by this cult group, so they had a similar idea that Kyoko-san could 'get real salvation and convert to the true faith' after death. ”

What the boy said was not a fabrication, and he had not dealt with the case of such a cult group before.

In his opinion, this kind of so-called religious belief, after layers of screening, is indeed very good at brainwashing his own believers.

Things that go against common sense like instigating parents to kill their own children are simply pediatric, and they can do more extreme things, and boys have seen a lot of similar incidents before.

"The third is the strange look up of the corpse of the apricot classmate."

Almost half of the apple was fed to Keiko Hatoyama little by little, and the boy stopped.

This thing is slightly higher in sugar, and too much intake is not good for Keiko Hatoyama's body, so the boy will only feed her half at a time.

As for the remaining half?

"The head of the corpse is obvious, artificially fixed in a high position."

Having cut a piece of apple for himself, the boy continued to explain as he ate it:

"I speculate that the purpose of their move may be to correspond to the stronghold of their cult group, and their 'god' is on the back hill behind the cemetery, so that the Kyoko classmates who offended their 'god' kneel down to their 'god' and confess to their 'god'."

"Xiaoqing, do you think that the stronghold of this cult group is on the back hill behind the cemetery?" Keiko Hatoyama asked.

"Well, it's just speculation, and I thought about it yesterday when it was late, so I'm going to investigate again this morning."

With that, the boy finished the remaining half of the apple in his hand and got up from his seat.

"If nothing else, this case can be closed today."

“……”

At the same time, in front of the cemetery where Kyoko-san's samurai was killed, Karasuma, who had reached school time for another day, was standing there, looking at it thoughtfully.

"Is Mr. Hanada just used to carry the pot? The real murderer ......"

"Huh? You are...... The female classmate next to Officer Shirakawa? ”

At this moment, a somewhat familiar voice suddenly sounded behind Karasuma-chan.

She looked back and saw that it was the grave keeper who had reported the crime earlier.

I hope this chapter will be sent out normally......
