Chapter 1785 1792 [Cold and Handsome Guy]
After all, they were sitting in a quiet room, and although the two of them were whispering very quietly, Eimi Chikada still heard it.
She hesitated for a moment and looked at Jiang Xia: "But will the police really care about this kind of prank? Letting them get involved might delay things - come to think of it, the person who attacked me just now seemed to have dropped something when he ran away..."
She turned her head hesitantly and looked at the bookcase beside her.
Jiang Xia stood up and walked over, staring at the bookcase for a moment, then picked up a wooden pole next to it and moved it under the bookcase.
As he moved, Suzuki Sonoko noticed something falling out: "There's a piece of paper! Wait, this couldn't be..."
Jiang Xia blew away the ashes and unfolded the letter.
It read: [Today at sunset, I will bring death to TB.]
"Death?!" Suzuki Sonoko was shocked. "The upgrade is too fast. How did it jump from cutting hair to killing people? There are only two hours left until sunset..."
With such a short time, even if they trust the police, they don't think Inspector Megure and his team can find the terrible murderer on time.
Jiang Xia was watching from the side, holding his chin, because the island trip sounded very interesting. He was in a good mood and was very patient. "Then let's go around and find out who 'TB' is."
…
There are many common female names that begin with T, but there are not so many surnames that begin with B. However, after asking around the school, the people who met the requirements either went home and left school, or had never heard of the Weaver Girl Club.
"The first three attacks were all aimed at the Weaver Girl Club, so the fourth attack should also be against someone related to the club." Suzuki Sonoko was tired of searching, and as the sun was about to set, she looked around and asked in confusion, "Where did Jiang Xia and that kid go?"
"Is it in the club activity room?" Kinda Eimi pointed at the window. "I seemed to see Jiang Xia leaning against the window and looking out. That kid also tried to climb up the windowsill like him and almost fell down."
Suzuki Sonoko: “…” This little brat really can’t calm down at all. Fortunately, Jiang Xia rescued him quickly.
Chikada Eimi was a little worried: "Really don't need to go and see it?"
Suzuki Sonoko wanted to continue the search, but there was no progress for a while. She thought about it and felt that it was necessary to find Jiang Xia to see if Jiang Xia had any clues.
…
The three returned to the Weaver Club's activity room and saw Conan closing a cabinet full of letters. Seeing the three people coming in, he asked Chikada Eimi: "Sister Eimi, who is 'Romeo'? - I found that the two victims before had praised him in their letters."
Chikada Eimi was silent for a moment, her face turning ugly. "That was... a very popular boy." She sighed and looked at her watch. "Romeo is probably studying in the library at this time."
…
The four of them went to the library under the guidance of Eimi Kinda.
Before I got closer, I saw several girls gathered at the door of the library. Each of them was sticking to the window, looking inside with amorous feelings.
"..." Conan nudged Jiang Xia's knee with his elbow and whispered a reprimand, "See, when you came to school before, the corridor was always like this. It was really blocking the way."
Jiang Xia: “…” Not really.
This mini detective loves to put the blame on others whenever he gets jealous. He really has no moral integrity.
While they were blaming each other, the two had already reached the door.
Jiang Xia glanced inside through the glass window and saw a boy in light-colored clothes sitting at the table. The boy was wearing headphones and seemed to be concentrating on studying.
Conan was too tall to reach the glass, so he jumped skillfully and tried to take a look. But he was pushed down by a hand halfway through his jump. Jiang Xia: "Don't run, jump or make noise in the library."
Conan: "..." What's so great about being tall? Damn high school students!
"His name is Kariya Yuto." Chikada Eimi whispered, "Because he has a quiet temperament and doesn't like to talk to people, people usually just watch him from afar and don't approach him..."
Before he could finish his words, a hand pushed the door open.
Suzuki Sonoko had been thinking about drama recently. She spun and jumped over and spoke a line from the stage as a greeting to the man: "Oh~! Romeo, why are you Romeo?"
“…”
Kariya Yuto looked up at her, and perhaps thought he had met a psychopath, so he pretended not to see her and lowered his head again.
Suzuki Sonoko: “…”
He really ignores me completely!
...Humph! But raising his head allowed her to see her face clearly. Jiang Xia was indeed more beautiful. And he would not leave a lovely lady alone.
Thinking of this, Suzuki Sonoko changed the subject and talked about business: "Our 'Vegas Club' has received several consultations about you, all from girls who have a crush on you, and the people who were attacked happened to have all sent confession letters related to you - what do you think about this matter?"
With such a long string of words, it was hard for Kariya Yuto to continue pretending not to hear.
He took off his headphones, looked up at Suzuki Sonoko, then turned to look at Jiang Xia who was approaching. He recognized that this was a detective of the same age, and his face changed slightly: "What do you want to say?"
A classmate who could swing the prisoner like a sack came over, and Suzuki Sonoko's confidence suddenly returned.
She calculated the time when Kinda Eimi was attacked, her face sank, she slapped her hand on the table, and said majestically like Officer Sato: "Where were you an hour ago? - Were you holding a knife and attacking the girl over there?"
"?" Kariya Yuto followed her gaze towards the door and saw Chikada Eimi standing there, looking a little embarrassed.
He looked away and said calmly, "Why would I attack someone I don't even know? It's inexplicable. If you want to ask about what happened an hour ago..."
He dug into the bag next to him and pulled out a ball of paper.
After unfolding it, I saw a few words written on it: [I found your utility knife. Can you come to the back of the gymnasium? I want to return the knife to you.]
The agreed time is also marked in the lower right corner.
"My utility knife was indeed lost. I was too lazy to go too far to buy a new one, so I went to check it out as the letter said." Kariya Yuto said unhappily, "But after waiting for 5 minutes, no one came, so I came back - I guess it was someone's prank."
Suzuki Sonoko touched her chin and said, "Could it be that you wrote this letter to yourself? Do you want to use it as an alibi?"
"Whatever you say." Kariya Yuto looked quite calm, clicking his mechanical pencil. "Okay, get out of here after you finish asking. I don't have time to play letter-writing games with you. I'm really busy."
