Chapter 594: Killing Intent, the Key Point is Killing Intent
The detectives were somewhat skeptical of Kurosawa's statement.
But he suddenly remembered that when everyone tossed the coin just now, the coin with copper rust that exposed Grandma Qianjian was far away from Grandma Qianjian, but very close to the young man who called himself "Kurosawa".
In other words, if the old man and the young man were really accomplices, then Kurosawa should have just picked up the rusty coin closest to him as if nothing had happened. In this way, Chijian would not be exposed so early, and her "fake death plan" could be hidden for a longer time.
However, in reality, Kurosawa did not do anything similar... It seems that, as he said, he was just an innocent passerby who took Chiken's car and accidentally walked into the dinner party.
Toru Amuro has slightly more doubts than others.
The main suspicion is that the "terminal illness" is actually true - Matsuda suddenly became aphasic while playing billiards, and he didn't eat dinner, but only drank a bowl of soup, and the soup in the bowl didn't get any less after drinking for a long time... These behaviors really seem to be linked to "disease".
But on the other hand, judging from Matsuda's behavior, whether it was the precise way he hit the billiard ball into the hole or the way he jumped off the balcony, his strength appeared to be very steady and quite flexible, which was far from the image of "a seriously ill patient waiting to die".
...In short, to be on the safe side, we should still remind people when necessary.
Amuro Toru then tactfully advised: "Treat the disease if you have it. Medical treatment is developing very fast nowadays, and some diseases that were originally thought to be terminal are actually not that difficult to treat."
"...I just said that the terminal illness is just an excuse to make it easier to get a ride." Jiang Xia, who was wearing a vest, decisively ignored Amuro Toru's imagination and brought the topic back to the right track, "Let's think about the real business. Regarding my suggestion just now to 'stage a massacre scene for her' - have you thought about your respective 'ways of death'?"
“…”
A group of detectives listened to Jiang Xia's last words. Although they understood what he meant, for some reason, they suddenly felt a creepy feeling as if they were being targeted by a cunning hunter. Gunda Yumi, who wore little and had a keen intuition, even silently got goose bumps.
...Their intuition made them want to immediately shake their heads and reject the proposal, because they always felt that there seemed to be some other purpose hidden behind it.
But if you think about it rationally, what the young man in black said seems to make some sense.
——If a group of them went there to interrogate her, Grandma Qianjian might just keep her mouth shut and refuse to tell her how to leave here, relying on her age and seniority.
On the contrary, if the old woman is in a strong position, she might be more proud to answer the question. After all, as Kurosawa said, "how to escape from this mountain full of poisonous snakes without transportation and signal" can barely be considered a difficult puzzle and is worth explaining.
The detectives looked at each other.
Finally, he made up his mind and nodded.
Then they began to think about the "way of death" suitable for themselves and others when "killing each other" - they have all seen many murder scenes and love to read detective novels, so they can be considered experts in this field.
…
After a brief exchange of words.
Considering that Grandma Qianjian might be coming back soon, the group of people did not stay at the door any longer. Instead, they planned to return to the annex to perform the good show that was supposed to be performed.
Just as they grasped the door handle and were about to push the door.
Behind him, Kurosawa Sa's voice suddenly sounded again.
There was a subtle hint of joy in the young man's tone, which seemed a little eerie against the dark night: "By the way, although everyone should know this, I still want to remind you - don't underestimate the insight of a detective, especially an old detective who has accumulated countless experiences and seen all kinds of life.
"Ordinary acting skills can't fool her. Just like she can't hide from you that she is the real mastermind.
"——In short, please be sure to truly kill the other party and release your murderous intent from the bottom of your heart."
“…”
After hearing the last sentence, Toru Amuro frowned unconsciously.
Although there is currently no evidence to prove that this person is Matsuda, it always feels a bit awkward to see a familiar face saying such instigative words.
Although the other detectives were not familiar with this face, they were equally uncomfortable - I don't know why, but I always felt that among all the things Kurosawa said, only the last sentence "I hope you all really want to kill each other" was the key point.
Moreover, compared to Chikan, I always feel that Kurosawa himself is more in line with the image of the "mastermind" from the sense of mystery to the temperament...
However, this was just groundless speculation after all, and was quickly put aside by detectives who focused on evidence.
Compared to this... Kurosawa's reminder seemed like he was questioning their acting skills.
"Don't underestimate detectives." The detectives snorted coldly, and quickly frowned as they got into the role. "We are all professionals."
"Kurosawa" smiled at them, and the provocation and challenge in his tone disappeared like a phantom.
He nodded and said in a friendly tone, "I hope so."
…
Although Grandma Qianjian is quite old, she is actually healthier than she looks.
Although she was not as fast as the three young men due to her age and the numbness in her legs from squatting in the grass for a while, she quickly followed the mountain path and walked back to the Dusk Villa.
When she arrived at the place, she did not enter through the main door, but climbed over the wall, carefully avoiding the lit areas, and went straight to the secret room hidden between the two floors and hid inside.
The secret room is about thirty to forty square meters, with countless display screens inside. It is a special monitoring room.
——A few days ago, Grandma Qianjian and the Food Detective secretly installed numerous surveillance cameras in the annex. This secret room was also discovered by the two during their treasure hunt. Disappointingly, there was no treasure in the secret room, but at least it gave them a suitable place to hide.
…
After Grandma Qianjian entered the secret room, she closed the door, pulled out a chair and sat down.
She scanned several monitors and quickly stopped at one of them.
This monitor is connected to the camera located in the hall.
Grandma Qianjian pushed her glasses on the bridge of her nose and looked carefully at the surveillance footage.
While she was away, a group of detectives seemed to have finished a rough search of the villa, and now they were gathered in the hall arguing.
——With the gourmet detective and her "murder", the tense atmosphere in the annex was finally ignited, and the detectives could no longer remain as calm as before.
However, it seems that there are still people trying to maintain peace.
——In the surveillance footage, the "Kurosawa" she brought with her was very helpless in persuading the quarrel: "Stop arguing. Rather than suspecting your own people, the organizer who is hiding somewhere is the most suspicious."
