[My father, Takahashi Nagakei, is a well-known philanthropist, treasure connoisseur in the antique world, and a famous entrepreneur, and he was supposed to be the head of the Takahashi family this year, but on the eve of announcing the head of the family, my father disappeared.]

I am my father's sixth and youngest daughter, and when I was born, my father was 47 years old.

My father is a very good person, and since I was born, I have been listening to rumors about him, and his vision and cognition are much higher than those of his peers, and he is also the heir recognized by the family elders.

However, he disappeared, and the mediocre uncle Kohei Takahashi became the head of the family.

I've always felt that my uncle didn't deserve the position of head of the family, maybe my father's disappearance was because of my uncle, so I have been secretly investigating my father's clues.

Finally I found a clue about my father, who was supposedly under house arrest by his grandfather in Misty Island.

The island already belongs to the uncle, who goes to the island every winter to spend his vacation in the hot springs.

Under the pretext that I wanted to go to the hot springs, I called my closest and most reliable friend, Goto-kun, and began a plan to rescue my father.

The only inhabitable manor on the island was named the "Rule" manor.

As the name suggests, the rules here must be followed.

But I knew that if I followed the rules, I would never find my father.

The attic and room No. 3 are taboo places, and no one can set foot in the manor, while room No. 1 is only allowed to enter by the owner of the manor, the uncle.

In order to enter room 3 smoothly, I deliberately chose room 2 as a temporary bedroom, and asked Goto-kun to steal the spare key to room 3.

In the dead of night, Goto-kun and I opened the door of room 3 and pushed us into the abyss with our own hands.

The walls of room 3 are plastered with old newspapers, showing horrific murders.

And all the murders were committed by the devil who called himself an 'artist'.

The bedside diary belongs to the father, and it belongs to this devil!

The devilish 'artist' who once caused a sensation in the whole country turned out to be my father!

I can't believe that he was so gentle with me, and taught me to be a kind and innocent person, and always keep my sincere heart, until he disappeared, and I kept looking for his footprints.

And yet I found such a result!

In his diary, he recorded his criminal journey, and he also tried to kill his mother many times, but his mother's family background saved his mother, but the maid next to his mother was not so lucky.

My best friend Shima Eyu was also killed by him, poor Shima Ezu, who was only 14 years old when she died, and it was I who killed her, and it was I who brought her to my house as a guest, introduced her to my father, and I introduced her to the devil.

As long as I think of the simple and kind appearance of Shima Ezu, my heart is bleeding, she used to be my best friend, but the devil did not hesitate to take her.

I remember when she died, I saw her and was so frightened that I had a high fever, and my father took care of me at the bedside all night, and now I think about it, it's so ironic.

Megumi Shima's headband was even placed in her father's display case.

Grandpa may have known what his father had done, so he would have imprisoned him here, and he would give the position of the head of the family to a mediocre uncle.

My stupidity and naivety hurt Goto-kun, and at my begging, the family was willing to let Goto-kun go, but I know that it didn't last long.

I want to make it public, and the 'artist' in prison is the family's scapegoat. This would damage the family's reputation, but it would comfort the victim's soul and save Goto-kun.

However, my grandfather discovered my mind, and he had eyes that could see through people's hearts.

He imprisoned me here, in room 2 of my own choosing, just as he had imprisoned my father in the next room, and I don't think I'll ever be able to get out of here.

Grandpa told me that both my father and I were in his blood, and he couldn't bear to kill us, so he imprisoned us here.

I hate him and I hate my father, and I will curse them.

I can't watch the family continue to rot, as a member of the Takahashi family, with the blood of the nobility flowing, I can't watch the family fall into the abyss step by step.

Outsider, if you read this letter, if you have the same conscience as I have that has not yet been extinguished, please make this matter public, may you escape from the Misty Island, and live strongly, I pray for you in hell. ]

After reading the first letter, Shirakawa and Chiyukiya did not speak, but silently opened the second letter.

[I don't have long to live, and during my days of captivity, I spent my days in the condemnation of my conscience, and every night I had nightmares about the girls my father had killed coming to me to ask for my life.

I'm such a poor worm, why should I bear this? I received the news of my friend's death, and I knew it must have been done by someone from the family, but I couldn't do anything about it.

It can't be like this, I can't just die like this, I have to do something, or I'm not only going to die, I'm going to go crazy.

I compromised with my grandfather, saying that I would never say it, and begged him to find me a psychiatrist.

My grandfather told me that my father was dead, and that I should not dwell on the past, that I would know how to let go, and that the family would still welcome me.

I looked at my grandfather and couldn't understand why he didn't feel the slightest guilt.

I know he's lying, and he's not going to let me leave this island for the rest of his life.

I seduced the psychiatrist Shunsuke Kuramoto and asked Shunsuke Kuramoto to let me go.

Shunsuke Kuramoto planned an escape route and planned to elope with me, however, we were caught by my uncle.

Uncle had the butler kill the doctor and imprison me again.

Unfortunately I'm pregnant, I need to live for the sake of the baby, and I have a crazy revenge plan in my heart. ]

The surname Kuramoto is inexplicably familiar, and the makeup artist is also surnamed Kuramoto, is it a coincidence?

There was no mention of a revenge plan in the letter, and Shirakawa and Chiyuki opened the third one.

However, the third letter was not written by Takahashi Yumi, and the handwriting should be another person.

[My child, if you see this letter, proof that you have come to me.]

I have wanted to kill your mother, your siblings, and your friends countless times, but I don't have that heart for you.

I believe that you must have inherited my bloodline, and one day you will be like me, madly obsessed with something and unable to extricate yourself, and then continue to destroy, destroy, and satisfy yourself.

You, like me, have the talent of an artist.

By the time you see my work, I'm probably dead.

My diary is a record of everything I have done, and it is a precious legacy for you, and I hope you will make it public.

I did so much for my family during my lifetime, and I just want to make a name for myself after I die.

I want everyone to remember my name, artist Takahashi Nagakei!

So expose it! I've recorded the evidence and details in my diary.

Please use this journal to become a Father and to be you.

Isn't it your dream to be the best journalist you can be? This will be your armor, your medal, don't be coerced by your family, don't care about other people's eyes.

My most wonderful child, I look forward to raising you to be just like me.

We all have the blood of the Takahashi family in our bodies, and we are a kind of people, different from most of the mediocre ants in the world, high aristocrats.

I'm looking forward to the look on your face when you read this letter, and I think this is my last lesson for you.

Hate me, curse me, and be me, my best boy. ]

"What a sick father's love."

Shirakawa sighed.

There was no expression on Qianxueye's face, "Aren't all fathers like this?" ”

Hey, hey, Miss Qianxueye, your three views are a little distorted.

"No, that's not the case with normal fathers."

Shirakawa felt the need to pick up his Chicken Soup for the Soul course and teach Chiyuki Mei's second personality.

Just as he was about to make a long speech, Qianxue Ye suddenly asked,

"What is your father like?"

Shirakawa was speechless for a while, okay, let's not talk about this topic anymore.

Seeing Shirakawa's deflated appearance, a hint of pride appeared in Qianxueye's eyes.

She stood up and put all three letters in her coat pocket.

"Kuraki-kun, did you find anything?"

Kichiko Kojima and Yoriko Tashiro walked in.

Yoriko Tashiro seems to be in a better state of mind than yesterday, probably because the excitement of the treasure hunt has diluted the sadness of her boyfriend's death.

Besides, she can now be with her regular customer Tokuji Furuta in the open.

Shirakawa shook his head, "Nothing. ”

"Oh, I thought you were crouching on the ground and found some clues."

Kiko Kojima said curiously.

"No, it's just that the tile is loose."

Shirakawa and Chiyuki left the bathroom, and Kojima and the others went in to check again, but they didn't find any useful clues.

"It seems that there are no treasure clues in the second room."

"I always think the chains on the wall are suspicious, could it be that a young girl is imprisoned?"

The modern poet Keiji Yajima began to use his imagination.

"Instead of wasting time here, let's go to Room One and the attic."

Da Tingxiu waved his cane and said.

"Mr. Butler didn't give me the key to the last door."

Shirakawa said frankly, and at the same time he lost an appraisal of room 1.

[Item: Room 1]

[Identification Result: The room of the head of the Takahashi family has been sealed off by steel, so it is impossible to enter easily, please try to find a special entrance, it will probably take some time.] 】

[Evaluation: A safe house that can't be pierced by bullets]

Is it a safe house?

Keisuke Koyama and Hiromi Ichimura expressed doubts about Shirakawa's words.

In front of everyone, Shirakawa tried all the spare keys once, and made sure that he couldn't open the door of room No. 1.

"Damn, the key should still be on the butler, right?"

"Let's go find him in the basement."

Hiromi Ichimura and the others went to the basement to find the housekeeper in a menacing manner.

Kiko Kojima looked at Shirakawa suspiciously,

"Kuraki-kun, why do you seem to be in a hurry, maybe the clue to the treasure is hidden here."

"I was wondering what the crazy plan was."

Shirakawa smiled.

"What crazy plan?"

Kiko Kojima was confused.

"It's nothing, this door won't open for a while, let's go and rest, think about what to eat at noon today, who will cook?"

Shirakawa looked at Chiyukiya.

Qianxue Ye indifferently spit out two words, "No." ”

"I'll do it, I'll cook."

Hanada Shizuru said.

Ever since Chiyuki Mei became Chiyukiya, Hanada Shizuru has felt very lonely and can't seem to find anyone to talk to.

The crowd dispersed, some chose to go to the basement to find a lawyer, some chose to wait at the door of room 1, and some chose to follow Shirakawa downstairs.

Mrs. Hanada and Tanida Fu entered the kitchen, although Mrs. Hanada was still a little afraid of Tanidafu, but Tanida was an unexpectedly gentle man, he didn't speak, just silently helped Mrs. Hanada wash the vegetables and take care of the ingredients, which made Mrs. Hanada a little more relieved.

Shirakawa and Chiyukiya, Kizuko Kojima, and Keiji Yajima sit in the restaurant and chat.

With nothing to do, Shirakawa started to grind coffee by hand.

Keiji Yajima suddenly looked at Shirakawa with a smile on his face,

"Kuraki-kun, I actually have some research on love poems, I vaguely saw a clue from Mr. Takahashi's love letter to his lover, why don't I say it, you can help me see if it's right."

Friendly recommendation!
