Chapter 85 Chapter 85 A very bad combination of crime...
328
Because of the not guilty vote in favor of Kamonobashi, the unanimous principle did not work, and there were few people present who wanted to break this principle. However, it was hard to say how to deal with Inukai-sensei, who was an outsider.
"Although he didn't kill anyone, he came here intending to kill someone, right?" Feiya said, "I have no objection to whatever you do with him."
"Why not just push him off the cliff?" Prosecutor Kazama said. "After all, maybe with his good luck he won't die at all."
"A statement devoid of any teacher-student affection?!" Inukai seemed surprised by this, but then realized he had no right to complain, so he finally calmed down. "Ah, whatever. I'm just a boring and uninteresting man. It's normal for me to be thrown into the sea to feed the fish."
"No one's going to throw you into the sea to feed the fish," Kamo no Hashiro said. "I don't care. If you don't intend to kill me, then do whatever you want. There's nothing worse than killing someone."
Everyone present: "..."
Is it true that the current situation is quite bad?
Although the nine of them were likely outsiders, many of them had a rare and real experience of the death of others. Even Gertrude said, "If I were outside, I would choose to obey the law."
"Did the wind tell you this too?" Kamohashi Rin asked Gerjiez.
After a brief pause, Ge Jiezi said, "Feng Ye told me that this matter is incredibly complicated. I'm just an innocent person caught up in it."
Kamohashi Ron remained silent. Gerjiez and Officer Sanno were basically outsiders, especially Officer Sanno, who had not yet provoked anyone from the M family. However, most of the others present were related to the Blood Internship Case five years ago, and the Blood Internship Case had not been completely resolved on the Rare Dolphin.
After all, the prosecutor and lawyer in charge of the case at the time were not satisfied, and Kamohashi Ron, the defendant who was originally acquitted, was also not satisfied.
Prosecutor Kazama has been collecting evidence related to the Blood Trainee case over the years, and Robin has been in contact with people related to the Blood Trainee case. It seems that if possible, they even want to reopen the Blood Trainee case.
As a result, at the end of the day, after a whole day of commotion, nothing happened except that most people knew that the sea bream was dead.
The nine people who knew each other still seemed to be doing everything as usual, but because of Kamo no Hashiron's insistence, no one intended to talk about certain things openly - for example, if certain people were not excluded, would he kill everyone on the island like a murderer.

Peaceful times are always short-lived. Not long after the death of the scorpion, a scream suddenly broke out from Prosecutor Kazama's cabin. Unlike the last scream Prosecutor Kazama gave Eli Moriarty, this time Prosecutor Kazama actually found a dead body.
When Kamohashi Ron and Isshiki Totomaru entered Prosecutor Kazama's room, Isshiki Totomaru finally expressed his doubts, rather than other questions: "Why did Prosecutor Kazama's scream sound so much like a woman's voice?"
"Women's voices are naturally high-pitched, and my voice is also high-pitched when I scream. It's normal for it to sound like a female voice at first glance." This was Prosecutor Kazama's explanation, but Isshiki Totomaru obviously didn't believe it. He just shook his head, but didn't intend to pursue the point. "So why did you suddenly scream?"
"You'll know after just one look," Prosecutor Kazama sighed. "Anyone who saw their roommate hanged would scream... And I don't think Robin committed suicide."
"Do you think suicide is a disguise?" asked Kamohashi Ron.
"I don't know. Robin might be a guy who's really good at joking. To be honest, when I first walked in, I thought he was joking—like the joke he plays every day where he pretends to be dead. As long as I yell, he'll show up and act weird." Prosecutor Kazama looked quite upset, his voice even trembling. "I'm sorry...if possible, could you and Officer Isshiki do the autopsy directly?"
Cesar: "That won't work. Kamo no Hashi and Officer Isshiki are too familiar with each other. We are not very confident. So, I will go with Kamo no Hashi. Although I am just an insignificant curator, I still know a little bit about autopsies, although I am not an expert."
"I have no objection," said Kamohashi Ron, "Let's begin the autopsy."

Officer Geddes and Officer Sanwang arrived later. Seeing the scene, Geddes was stunned for a moment before cautiously saying, "Could it be that... Mr. Robin is the second person to die?"
"As much as I'd like to say no, reality doesn't allow me to be so powerless." Prosecutor Kazama sighed, "Ask Kamohashi Lun for the details. After all, it's my roommate's body, and I don't really want to perform an autopsy."
"It was mechanical asphyxiation. Judging from various factors, I believe he was strangled," said Kamohashi Ron. "The Yoshikawa line on his neck proves this. And probably because he was in Robin's cabin, he naturally disguised it as a suicide."
"So, the culprit who killed that person might not be Robin. There might even be a terrifying guy lurking among us who wants to kill everyone?" Feiya sighed as he rushed over. "...Forget it. Instead of slowly investigating the culprit and then throwing him out, it's better to protect yourself."
"What about the others? Do you have the same idea? If you do, I can only respect everyone's opinion." Kamohashi Ron looked at Isshiki Totumaru and Officer Sanno, "Don't you have anything to say?"
"I mean, it doesn't have to be among us. It could be someone else on the island," Isshiki Totomaru said. "So there's no need to be so paranoid... it's just..."
"Officer Isshiki is worried about not fulfilling his police duties, right? But this is an island far away from Japan after all. Failing to protect everyone in such a situation is beyond the police's ability." Sanwang seemed to be comforting Isshiki Todumaru. "So Mr. Feia and I agree. Instead of slowly investigating and screening the criminal, it's better to protect yourself. Besides, don't you live with an S-rank detective?"
The combination of an S-class detective and a criminal police officer is a very bad combination for criminals!
Kamonohashi: "If everyone agrees, I'll investigate this separately with Prosecutor Kazama..."
"Lun, I'm with you."
"No, Dudu, you don't need to say that. I assume we are together because we are partners."

Most people still prioritize their own safety. As for catching the possible serial killer, no one is interested. If you insist, the serial killer is still eliminating his competitors - they can't really spend their days leisurely on this island, they are not here for vacation.
Except for Master Gedez who was completely oblivious to the situation and Officer Sanwang who was simply affected, most people on this island had their own purposes.
In Prosecutor Kazama's cabin, Kamohashi Ron, Isshiki Totomaru, Prosecutor Kazama, and Robin's corpse were all silent. After a while, Kazama heard the gurgling sounds of Kamohashi Ron and Kuromi, and then Prosecutor Kazama finally jumped to something -
"Where do you want me to start, Kamo no Bashi Ron?"
Kamohashi Ron was mumbling something while drinking black honey, but it was obvious that Prosecutor Kazama couldn't hear clearly.
Isshiki Todumaru: "As for the fact that he wants to settle the score with you first about deceiving him, he asked if it would be fun for one person to play two roles? Eh... wait?! So after all, Prosecutor Kazama is Miss Marigold Kazama!"
"Toto, I'm a little shocked by your growth. Although I helped you eliminate the wrong answers before, it was still a bit unexpected that you could guess that it was the same person." Kamohashi Ron said, "Although I discovered it earlier."
Prosecutor Kazama, no, it should be Jasmine Kazama now, took off her sunglasses and said, "Officer Isshiki must have heard my real voice when I screamed. There's nothing I can do about it. I don't have Winter's disguise skills. I've tried my best to prevent the M family from discovering that Prosecutor Kazama and I are the same person."
"This explains the awkward feeling I've been having," said Isshiki Totomaru. "I felt strange during the phantom beast serial murder case. I felt like Prosecutor Kazama wasn't the type to casually reveal cases to outsiders."
But Prosecutor Kazama and Mari Kazama are the same person, which is normal.
"But I think this has nothing to do with what we're going to discuss next. After all, Kamonohashi only joined the game because I promised to explain everything in the game, including the dolphin pendant," said Prosecutor Kazama. "In addition to researching a virus that even the M family wanted, Dr. Goya also had enough evidence to prosecute most of the M family. But it wasn't safe in my hands because Alice was already targeting me at the time."

"Prosecutor Kazama? I only invited her here because she's involved in the Blood Internship case. It has nothing to do with anything else," Alice said to Winter. "As for whether she has enough evidence to prosecute me, I don't care. As long as I don't get caught, they won't be able to prosecute me. Rather, I'm surprised the game has progressed to this point. I didn't expect anyone to cross the line and do something like this."
"Breaking the original bottom line...?" Winter was a little shocked. "Alice, who are you talking about?"
"Since I can't look at anyone else, there's only one answer." Alice tilted her head. "Of course, I'm referring to the Kamo no Bashi theory."
