In the restaurant of the Himuro mansion's annex, Yusaku Daimon was smoking a cigarette with a slightly anxious look on his face, and from time to time he would look at Shiro Hibiki who was sitting opposite him reading a novel silently. He obviously didn't understand why this guy could still concentrate on reading a novel in such a situation, considering that the murderer was in this annex.
Dong Fangjian, who was sitting next to him, was afraid but could not resist the sleepiness. He held his chin and nodded his head. The saliva from the corner of his mouth dripped onto the table with the amplitude of his nodding. He looked like he was asleep.
Sitting by the window, Hayami Reika still had an unfinished sandwich in her hand, her eyes fixed on the door so that he could see it as soon as the two officers returned.
The snowstorm that had finally stopped started again, and the visibility was reduced a lot. She frowned and was a little worried, but she didn't have the contact information of the two police officers. All she could do was stay in the restaurant obediently, record the time when others left, and report directly when they came back.
"Um?"
Reika Hayami noticed that Sosuke Takagi appeared in the wind and snow and ran hurriedly towards the annex. She noticed the anxiety on his face, so she stood up from her seat, put the plate aside and ran to the entrance.
Why does Officer Takashi have such an expression? And where is Officer Yamato?
"Mr. Yingsi, is something wrong?"
When Hayami Reika ran to the entrance, Takashi Sosuke had already pushed the door open. He completely ignored the snowflakes on his body and did not explain that Yamato Gansuke was still behind because of a sprained ankle. He asked directly while panting heavily:
"Aya... Ayatsuji, is she in the restaurant?"
"No, she said she felt dizzy and went back to her room to rest."
Upon hearing this, Fujiwara Yu did not dare to delay at all and ran directly to Hiruta Masashi's room on the second floor. According to his and Yamato Gansuke's reasoning, Ayatsuji would definitely save the guy disguised as Himuro Kazusei for last.
Because only in this way can she get rid of suspicion and put all the blame on "Himero Ikki", so he must now confirm the situation of Hiruda Masashi.
However, as soon as he ran up to the second floor, he saw a lot of 10,000 yen bills scattered on the red carpet, stained with blood, and the bills extended all the way to the door of Masashi Hiruta's room.
Fujiwara Yu's heart tightened. He quickly stepped forward and opened the door, and saw Masashi Hiruta dead with his back to the door. After confirming that he had no pulse, he did not bother to take care of Hayami Reika who was following behind him, and rushed directly to the room of "Himuro Ikkyo".
He gritted his teeth and quickly ran up to the third floor. He didn't know whether Ayatsuji Marina had attacked "Himuro Ikki"... Damn it, he had to catch up with at least one of them!
——
The third floor of the annex.
Himuro Kazusei stood in front of the window with a frown on his face. Although his expression was hidden by sunglasses and a mask, judging from the frequency of the trembling of his clenched hands, he must be looking nervous.
The death of Rie Kano did not scare him, but since the death of Michio Akashi, he realized that something was wrong... This reminded him that he was not Himuro Ikki, no matter how long he pretended to be him.
His name is Takao Mizunuma, a makeup artist with ordinary looks and ordinary job. If you were to say what he is best at, it is probably special effects makeup... Haha, he does it for himself.
Takao Mizunuma took off his sunglasses and turned to look at himself in the mirror. In order to maintain the image of "Himero Ichisho"
Because of his identity, he gradually became dislike of looking in the mirror, and every time he looked in the mirror he would have an illusion.
What is this illusion?
Maybe it was the illusion that he was already dead, and he suddenly felt that he was Himuro Issei.
Gana and Akashi are already dead, so I'll be the next one, right?
This must have been done by Masashi Hiruta. He is the only one who knows the crime they committed ten years ago, but how can he pass the information to the police?

Tell them that I’m not Himuro Kazusei, but Mizunuma Takao who pretended to be him and embezzled his property for ten years?
That's absolutely not possible. They will arrest me as well. I will definitely be sentenced to many years in prison for destroying the body and embezzling a huge amount of property. I may even never be able to get out of prison.
Takao Mizunuma sighed deeply. He was indeed happy to enjoy the wealth brought by Himuro Issei over the years, but he was worried every day, worried that someone would discover that there was something wrong with his identity.
If God gave him another chance, would he still choose to go along with Akashi Michio and the others?
Dong Dong Dong.
The sudden knock on the door scared Takao Mizunuma so much that he shuddered. He quickly put his sunglasses back on and made sure that there was no problem before walking towards the door.
When I opened the door, I found that it was Marina Ayatsuji standing outside. Why did she come to see me at this time?
"Mr. Himuro, I made coffee for everyone. Would you like a cup?" Marina Ayatsuji was holding a tray with a cup of coffee and a plate of cookies on it. The coffee smelled very fragrant, and a lot of butter must have been put in it.
Takao Mizunuma let down his guard, reached out to take the plate and prepared to enjoy it later, but the moment he lowered his head, he noticed the stain on her cuff.
It's not the color of coffee, it's deep red.
Is this blood?
Mizunuma Takao was thankful he was wearing a mask, otherwise if Ayatsuji Marina saw his terrified expression, she might have pulled out an axe and attacked him. He feigned composure, placed the tray on the desk, and began issuing the order to leave:
