Chapter 1005 1013 [Leave me alone! ]
Jiang Xia put away the knife and nodded, indicating that he agreed with Kudo Shinichi's statement.
“……”The detective is really useful.
Afterwards, Jiang Xia dumped the pile of books back on the desk.
While everyone else was looking at the books, he glanced at Noah's direction: the judging criteria should be consistent in the future, especially when there are other people present... Even if you really don't dare to strike, at least the light effect should be the same as when you strike others. Hattori Heiji's lightning is pretty cool...
…
The bound volumes cannot be opened, so naturally it is impossible to read them all at six times the speed with a large group of people.
If one looks through these materials... one has no idea what this "Mysterious Phenomenon Research Society" is researching. One year's journal is actually one centimeter thick, and the total thickness of thirty years is thirty centimeters.
In such a vast amount of information, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack to find the "key" to solve the puzzle. Even if you just filter out "campus", "the seventh wonder", "those places and keywords related to 'wonder'", etc., it will take a very long time. One or two keywords in a large text are not so easy to find when the information is old and the font is a little blurry.
Compared to these compilations...
Jiang Xia looked at the small disk next to him, picked it up and looked at it:
"Sakuragi-senpai seemed to say that this contains information related to the 'Seven Wonders'. Although there are only the first six, they are likely related to the seventh.
"Why not go to the 'six major' locations first to check out the situation, find any suspicious places, and then come back to look for clues in the combined journal in a targeted manner - if we can confirm the year when the anomaly occurred, it will be more efficient."
Haibara Ai nodded, took the disk from him, and walked to the corner of the room.
There was a computer there. The casing was wiped very clean, but the model was very old. The screen, keyboard, the entire body... were very different from the computers commonly used today.
Haibara Ai looked down at it for a moment, turned it on skillfully, inserted the disk, and retrieved the data.
…Although the style is old, she has used this model before. After all, the speed of technological development is really unpredictable.
…
Soon, the disk opened and a document appeared on the screen.
It lists relevant information about the "Seven Wonders of Campus" one to six, like short stories, each with only four or five lines of description.
Haibara Ai and five other people gathered in front of the computer, scrolled through it from top to bottom, and finished it quickly.
She wanted to take out her phone to take a picture, but when she checked her pocket, there was no phone in it.
Huiyuan Ai was slightly startled, then she remembered the historical background of this school, sighed, and had to change her mind: "Let's go to the printing room and print it out first?"
"No, you'll remember it after just one look." Jiang Xia reminded her, "And Senior Yingshu said that these 'precious materials' should not be taken out of the data room."
Haibara Ai remembered something, her eyes flashed slightly, and she said "hmm" thoughtfully.
Kudo Shinichi and Hattori Heiji nodded, agreeing with Jiang Xia's statement - most detectives have good memories. Even if they are not as good as printers with photographic memories, they can remember this little information which adds up to less than one page.
…
"Then let's search in order." Jiang Xia subconsciously glanced at the ceiling:
"The first one is the 'unopenable biology classroom', the legend we heard at the beginning - it should be located in the old school building in the north."
"..." Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki shuddered when they recalled the legend that "a body was seen hanged in the biology classroom late at night, and the body disappeared when they turned around."
They don't dare to go.
However, Mao Lilan recalled the analysis of the detectives just now: the mastermind behind the scenes was not a mysterious element, but a real person...
She touched her fist and suddenly regained some courage.
Suzuki Sonoko obviously thought of the same thing. She looked at Jiang Xia, then at Mao Lilan, and decisively decided to hold on to these powerful thighs and go to those places to observe together - without them, it would be really scary.
When everyone walked to the door, a voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"You guys go find it first, I'll stay here and look at the information."
The five high school students were startled and looked in the direction of the voice.
"Ms. Miyano" was seen standing beside the table, flipping open a corner of the "bound volumes of conference journals" that were thicker than bricks.
She stroked the pages of the book with her fingers, pondering something, and then said quickly:
"It's too inefficient for several people to go together. We can only do it faster if we divide the work. Besides, the 'Six Wonders' almost all happened late at night, and the locations did not include the activity room of the 'Mysterious Phenomenon Research Society'. I should be safe here."
Hattori Heiji rubbed the back of his head and nodded in agreement with the last sentence: "That makes sense..."
Mao Lilan hesitated for a moment.
She looked at Kudo Shinichi, then at Haibara Ai.
After struggling for a while, he finally walked back to the classroom from the door: "I'd better stay here. After all, I'm not very good at solving puzzles. However, if someone comes to attack, I can just deal with it."
——Although Mao Lilan wanted to ask Kudo Shinichi why he was playing games in such a place during the days when he was missing and "investigating the case"...but this game was extremely important, even related to life. And "Ms. Miyano" looked quite frail and full of scholarly temperament. It was really unsafe to leave her alone here.
Suzuki Sonoko looked at Jiang Xia, then at Mao Li Ran, and walked back reluctantly: "Then I will too..."
"Come with us - I see you don't look very good at fighting, you must be very weak." Hattori Heiji stopped her and said bluntly:
"Protecting people is harder than fighting. Maoli is lucky enough to be able to protect one person. If you are included, you might all be wiped out here.
"And this game has exactly three men and three women, which is very balanced. Maybe that 'Moriarty' deliberately kept the data - if you girls have some unique uses later and you are killed here, we will all fail to complete the game."
The "Moriarty" who selects people: "..."
...He really didn't think that much about it and just pulled in a few people he saw often.
Suzuki Sonoko was stunned on the spot. After a moment, she waved her fist angrily: "You are the weak one!"
“…” But it is undeniable that what the black guy said does make some sense.
Suzuki Sonoko sighed and walked back to the door.
She waved at the two girls in the room and said, "Then let's go explore the six wonders. If anything happens, just shout. I saw in the CG just now that this school is not that big. There aren't many people in the school right now. I have sharp ears, so I'm sure I can hear it!"
