Chapter 598: The Death of Jiang Xia (Please give me a monthly ticket)
According to the "organizer", there is a computer there.
Anyone who knows where the treasure is can enter the answer into a computer and get clues to leaving the place and half of the treasure.
Qiangda Yumi already had a vague idea of where the treasure was.
However, she certainly didn't go there to enter the answer, but rather to die gracefully.
——Based on their brief search of the annex when Chikan Kyoudai was away, they found a poison killing device in the control room.
If you pretend to be "poisoned", you don't have to cover yourself with sticky ketchup like the white horse detective just now...
…
When Ikumi Gunda arrived at the control room.
On the other side, Toru Amuro and Kidd heard the gunshots echoing in the corridor, looked at each other, and quickly ran towards the direction where the sound came from.
After walking through the long corridor and turning the corner, a mixed-race male high school student fell to the ground in front of him.
——Baimatan closed his eyes and lay motionless on the ground, holding a gun in his hand that he would never have the chance to fire, and "blood" oozing out of his chest.
After a moment of surprise, Amuro Toru and Kid ran over to check. Kid wanted to shout "Are you okay?" as usual, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was choked by the strong smell of tomatoes and coughed twice.
Amuro Toru looked at the pool of ketchup on the ground in silence: "..."
...Fortunately, this annex was not well maintained, and the lighting was average. In the dim light, the difference between the color of ketchup and blood was not that great.
But the two shapes are quite different after all. Can this really be hidden from the old lady... Tsk, I hope the mastermind behind this is short of funds and doesn't install too good cameras.
Toru Amuro secretly criticized Matsuda's "massacre plan" which seemed more entertaining than practical.
He ran over with a serious expression, and without saying a word, he turned the White Horse over. Using this action, he used the White Horse's body to spread the ketchup, making it look more like blood.
Then he reached out to feel his artery, then opened his suit jacket to look at his shirt splattered with ketchup.
Finally, he shook his head with regret and lied with his eyes open: "His heart was shot through."
Kidd leaned over and looked at the peaceful expression of his classmate on the ground. He couldn't help but move his fingers - Hakuba's posture was too good, and he wanted to put a prank makeup on the face of this mortal enemy... Unfortunately, there were surveillance cameras and Amuro Toru nearby.
Just when I was feeling a little regretful, I could faintly hear footsteps in the stairwell about seven or eight meters away.
Kidd was startled, stood up and said, "It must be the murderer!" Then, like an ordinary high school detective, he rushed towards the unknown danger unarmed.
Amuro Toru, who seemed more cautious, shouted behind him: "Wait!"
...Of course I failed to stop them.
Toru Amuro could only put down Hakubatan’s “corpse” and run over.
However, just as he got closer, he suddenly heard the sound of something rolling down the stairs.
When they arrived at the stairwell door and looked inside, they saw "Jiang Xia" lying at the corner of the next step, as if he had been pushed down. There was blood on his forehead and he was lying on the ground motionless.
This old annex has very steep steps.
Although it was agreed that it was just a "play", Toru Amuro thought of the detectives who were provoked by Matsuda and suspected that someone had turned the fake play into reality.
However, after running down the stairs a few steps and smelling the strong smell of ketchup on "Jiang Xia", Toru Amuro fell into silence for a short time.
It appears to be fake.
Speaking of which, being able to roll down from such a steep place and still having the mood to avoid surveillance and apply ketchup on himself, this "Jiang Xia" is really very agile...
…
Falling on the head is not the same as being shot in the heart.
The former has a chance to survive a little longer.
Amuro Toru then saw Jiang Xia raising his hand dramatically, grabbing his sleeve, his lips trembling as if he wanted to say the murderer's name.
But before uttering the first word, "Jiang Xia" hung his head weakly, and the hand that was holding Amuro Toru fell to the ground beside him, as if he had finally died, and the timing was controlled as precisely as in the TV series.
Toru Amuro: "..."
...There are quite a lot of dramas.
It's really a fake, Jiang Xia doesn't like to act that way...
He glanced at his clean sleeves that were stained with ketchup, his forehead twitched slightly, and then he looked at "Jiang Xia's" face.
——Just reach out and pinch and tear hard to tear off the thief's disguise.
...However, noticing that there were also cameras in the corridor, this was still the stage for the "drama" that Matsuda wanted. Amuro Toru's outstretched hand finally turned silently and closed the fake Jiang Xia's "unclosed" eyes.
He kept his eyes on Jiang Xia the whole way. If there was any time they had separated recently, it was probably only when they had a flat tire on the road.
Considering that Kidd would not kill anyone and would not let the person he replaced die accidentally, and there was a gas station nearby, there was no need to worry about Jiang Xia being forced to survive in the wilderness without a cell phone - Jiang Xia was most likely taken in by the staff at the gas station.
In addition, if Yuya Kazami discovered Jiang Xia first, he might also find someone to pretend to be a passing traveler and take Jiang Xia on the road with him and continue to supervise him.
...In short, Jiang Xia should be fine now.
In this case, let’s just concentrate on finishing the show.
I always feel that Matsuda's suggestion of "acting" actually has another purpose behind it.
At present, Toru Amuro cannot guess what he is trying to do, but when everything is over, he will probably be able to figure out his purpose.
…
In the sweet smell of ketchup.
Toru Amuro looked at the "corpse" of his employee with a slightly sad expression, and tried his best to hypnotize himself that Jiang Xia was really killed by a passing murderer.
Then he ran upstairs with a hint of anger and murderous intent - the footsteps that "Jiang Xia" had just chased went all the way up.
In other words, the person who pushed "Jiang Xia" down the stairs should be on the floor above.
…
After going upstairs and exiting the stairwell, Toru Amuro discovered that this was near the central control room.
The organizer said that once you have the answer, come here and enter the answer into the computer.
At this time, the door of the control room was wide open.
Toru Amuro ran to the door and looked inside vigilantly, only to see Ikumi Gunda lying quietly on the ground, also looking like a corpse.
He was stunned for a moment, walked into the room, and as usual, moved closer to check on Qian Tian Yumei's situation.
Then he shook his head secretly.
At this moment, there was a slight clicking sound from the door handle behind me.
When Toru Amuro turned around, he saw that the cowboy detective had walked around to the door of the control room at some point and was now bending over to observe the door handle.
There is a round handle on this door.
When using it, most people will hold it with their whole hand and turn it.
The cowboy detective stretched out two fingers and turned it, then snorted knowingly: "There is a mechanism on the inside handle. When someone enters the answer and wants to leave here, they will be stabbed to death by the poison needle as soon as they open the door."
