Chapter 78 Chapter 78 The moonlight is so beautiful tonight

The communications expert was silent for a moment. He was about to say that this matter wasn't important, but then he thought it didn't matter. He sighed and said, "You guys should know that I'm actually a swimming pool agent, right?"

Yu Gong had guessed this to some extent, and then she subconsciously asked, "Is the so-called big shot actually your superior?"

"I guess so, but whatever. I won't consider him my superior anyway," the communication expert said. "I can clearly tell which boss is more worthy of following."

Then, the communications expert seemed to have a sudden thought. "You don't want to hear about that, do you? I don't think there's much to say. It's just a story about an agency deciding a highly capable agent was unstable and giving up on them. It's a pretty lame story, isn't it? After all, that's how those kinds of organizations are. Bosses like Kamonohashi Ron, who always value everyone's life, are the minority."

Amemiya: “…”

Amemiya: "Since we can post comments, that means that no matter what we post, Mr. Yafu will see it, right?"

Communication Expert: "That's the point. I think the boss can still beat Alice even without these barrages."

Communication experts seem to have an inexplicable trust in Kamonohashi theory.

In short, he believed that there would be no problem with Kamohashi Ron and Isshiki Totomaru.

Apparently, everyone was fine on the first day, but it was only temporary. The first person to notice something was wrong was Hubitz's eldest brother. He asked Alice directly, "Do we need to get food and other things ourselves?"

Alice smiled and nodded. "That's right. Of course, you could also choose to deliberately not find enough food, so that the weaker ones would starve to death. But I don't think Mr. Feiya plans to do that."

Feiya didn't say much and looked like she was preparing for a deserted island survival game.

Prosecutor Kazama suddenly got angry. "It's like a completely deserted island. I think Alice should have prepared a cabin."

Alice smiled at everyone and said, "Of course, we've prepared enough rooms, but I personally suggest that you all share one room, because if you're alone, you never know when you'll be killed."

"I don't know any of them," Lee Koch said. "I'm worried about being killed living with them."

Robin suddenly spoke up at this time: "Would you like to live with me and Prosecutor Kazama? It's not very convenient for Prosecutor Kazama to live with me."

Lee Koch was silent for a moment, then said, "I'll live with Ms. Geddes."

"Oh, what a pity." Robin didn't know what he was regretting.

Alice didn't say much, but Isshiki Totomaru still felt something was wrong. After a moment, he finally said, "Actually, Alice is still hiding some rules, right?"

"You've noticed it all, you've grown up so fast." Kamohashi Ron said, "She only said that the last person alive will win, but she didn't say if this last person alive refers to us. Maybe there are other people hiding on the island."

At this time, several barrages of comments appeared on Kamohashi Ron's phone.

[Should I say it's a real duck? I guessed it right. Judging by the live broadcast, there must be someone hiding on the island.]

[I finally see my roommate at this time. He's amazing that he can spot the problem.]

[We studied for a long time before we came up with this guess]

[After all, you are not professional police officers or detectives, so don't underestimate yourselves.]

[Is this the gap? We are really too weak]

"It doesn't matter. You guys always notice things that I don't." Kamohashi Ron comforted the commentator a little, then looked at Isshiki Totomaru who looked a little worried. "What's wrong, Toto, what are you worried about?"

"Because today is only the first day, no one has taken action yet, but what about the next few days?" Isshiki Todumaru said, "The reward given by Alice is still likely to make people take risks."

"There's nothing I can do about it. After all, I'm just a detective. It's like a pencil sharpener. It only works when a pencil appears, but without a pencil, the sharpener can only wait quietly." Kamohashi Ron said, "So until the pencil appears, we can only wait quietly."

“What a fantastic metaphor, but an unexpected image.”

"So now the pencil sharpener will take a break."

"You surprisingly like this metaphor!"

The first night on this isolated island has passed. No one has killed anyone, and no one has committed suicide. Because the plane is actually heading to the UK, some people tend to bring some local food when going to the UK, so no one has yet to quarrel over the distribution of food.

In fact, when Isshiki Totumaru saw Robin and Feiya appear in front of everyone with a large bucket of fish, he thought that no one would have a quarrel over the distribution of food.

When Alice saw the huge bucket of food, she felt that she had made a little mistake.

I originally thought that the shortage of resources would eventually lead to a fight between these people.

In response, Robin smiled and said to Alice, "Although it's not impossible to sow discord within a team that sticks together, it's useless to do so without any motive when their interests are highly aligned."

Alice put her hands behind her back. "Really? Are there really no motives? Aren't everyone's interests perfectly aligned? It's just the beginning. Everyone's thinking about 'survival' for now, but what happens after that?"

There will always be people fighting for those things, some who feel that the distribution is not equal, and some who just want to get them without working for them.

What's more, there are more than just these people on this island.

There are other humans and beasts too.

Robin shook his head at this time: "I'm so sorry, I'm actually a person who lives in the present. I solve today's problems today and worry about tomorrow tomorrow. I don't do things that are not necessary."

Alice: "Okay then? I don't care anyway. I have plenty of time."

Kamonohashi Ron took enough fish for him and Isshiki Totomaru to eat, then he noticed something and said, "If we eat the same food for a long time, the nutrition will not be sufficient, right?"

"I knew you'd say that." Isshiki Todumaru suddenly pulled out a package from the suitcase. "Here's a big bag of black honey that you backed up, and I stuffed it with enough other food to last for 30 days without repeating it. Anyway, if we can make it through 30 days, we'll be able to arrest Alice."

The present is different from the Blue period. During the Blue period, there was no evidence that Alice had committed any crime. But now, whether it is Prosecutor Kazama or Kamohashi Ron, or even the World Detective League, they all have evidence that Alice admitted to her crime, so they have every reason to arrest her.

However, compared to these, Kamo no Hashiro was more shocked by the extent of Isshiki Totomaru's foresight: "Toto, have you even thought of something like this?"

"...This is common sense, right? I can tell whether you're genuinely praising me or just teasing me." Isshiki Dudumaru looked at him helplessly. "Rather than that, let's deal with the fish first. Why does this feel like a complete survival game in the wilderness?"

Aren't they here to arrest Alice? Is this the right thing to do?

Kamo no Hashiro: "Treasure it, Toto. After all, not all police officers have this kind of experience."

"I'm not a policeman who needs to go out on missions in the wild frequently! No, it's better to say that only a few policemen except special departments have this kind of experience!" Isshiki Todumaru complained subconsciously.

Tonight didn't look like a Christmas Eve. Neither Kamo no Hashiro nor Isshiki Totomaru could sleep. Finally, Kamo no Hashiro suggested, "We're really bored, let's go for a walk. It would be great if there were mountains on this island. I'd peel lentils there for fun."

"Seriously?!" Isshiki Todumaru couldn't help but ask, then thought of Lun's completely unsympathetic dream list, "You're not trying to complete your five-year dream list here, are you?!"

Kamohashi Ron looked a little confused. "Huh, is that not possible? Even Alice didn't say I can't do this at night, right? There's no rule about not being able to leave the house at night. This isn't one of those classic games where talented people get together to kill each other."

Isshiki Totomaru: "..."

If this is that game, then Alice is quite irresponsible and doesn't even have a motive.

"Then let's look for mountains together. If there are none, we'll go back." Isshiki Todumaru accompanied Kamohashi Ron to visit almost the entire island, so much so that some people who were still awake sent barrages of comments on Kamohashi Ron's phone.

[What are you two doing!!! Are you on a date?]

[She said she wanted to find a mountain, so she went to the mountain to peel lentils]

[Yaya, next time I won’t watch that kind of rural life variety show if you’re not there]

In the end, the two of them walked around for several times but still couldn't find a mountain that satisfied Kamohashi. Finally, they decided to go back to their cabin to sleep. The weather was very gloomy today, with no stars and no moon. However, after Kamohashi opened the door of the cabin with the key, he suddenly said to Isshiki Totomaru:

"You're the only star I see in my sky." said Kamohashi Ron.

Isshiki Dudumaru was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "The moonlight is so beautiful tonight."

There were neither stars nor moon in the sky.

Just as Isshiki Totsumaru was about to say something, a scream came from Prosecutor Kazama's room—more like a scream than a scream.

"Is someone taking action at this time? I hope Prosecutor Kazama is safe!" Isshiki Totsumaru immediately forgot what he wanted to say to Kamonohashi just now, "Lun, let's go over and take a look."
