Chapter 899 Don’t fish anymore. More to the leader [Yue Gucheng]
Jiang Xia tightened the medicine bottle that Yue Yexue had loosened.
At the same time, he glanced to the side and saw a few cold and shiny knives on the knife rack in the cupboard.
Those knives were not far from Yue Yexue and she could reach them with just one hand.
Very convenient for...
Silencing some detectives who know too much.
…
Jiang Xia calmly withdrew his gaze, suppressed the expectation hidden in his eyes, and said directly: "Are you the murderer this time?"
…Although Yue Yexue had a strong desire to kill, at the same time, her mind was quite wavering.
——Just now, Jiang Xia followed the police back to this apartment. As soon as he entered the door, before he started to count the vanilla ice cream brand murderous aura handed over from Miss Spider, he saw Matsuda Jinpei and Kiri Tengu rolling over from the direction of the bathroom like a snowball, pushing a ball of fluffy murderous aura like cotton candy.
When the murderous aura came closer, Jiang Xia sniffed the scent comfortably.
He had discovered long ago that this handful of murderous aura not only looked like cotton candy, but also had a hint of the sweet aroma of sugar. Before Jiang Xia put it into the print space, several ghosts hanging on him had already pounced and unreservedly plunged themselves into the pile of sugar.
These murderous auras were dropped by Yue Yexue.
It might be because she was splashed with real blood when she committed the crime in the bathroom before, and she was frightened so much that her murderous intent decreased drastically, and the murderous aura on her body naturally faded a little.
Afterwards, the news that Kusano Kaoru was successfully rescued came back. At that moment, the remaining murderous aura on Yue Yesue's body also fell silently.
Xiaobai and the mermaid waited at her feet for a long time, and their efforts paid off, and they successfully dragged back a large handful of fresh murderous balls.
However, the ghosts were short-sightedly satisfied.
The psychic who was busy raising ghosts had other ideas.
——Even someone like Vodka, who was once suspected by Jiang Xia as “Don’t you have murderous intent?”, can be squeezed out of a huge amount of murderous intent like a floodgate opened.
As for Yue Yexue... maybe she still has potential that can be tapped into.
…
So after Yue Yexue left.
Jiang Xia couldn't help but follow.
——Since you are here, it won’t hurt to give it a try.
According to experience, many murderers, when exposed by a detective one-on-one and without a police officer nearby, will not sit and wait for death, but will instinctively think of "killing this detective who knows too much" to silence him.
Kusano Kaoru was a former friend of Yue Yexue, so it was normal that Yue Yexue couldn't bring himself to do it.
But the detective "Jiang Xia" was just a stranger to her.
Moreover, Yue Yesue clearly had thoughts of committing suicide, but she still tried hard to hide it from the police and detectives, not wanting her murder plan to be exposed... Since she didn't even want to live, perhaps in order to protect her secret, she would become bold and have the idea of taking action?
…
Opposite Jiangxia.
When Yue Yexue heard the words "You are the murderer" head on, his head buzzed.
She tried to maintain a fake smile and subconsciously wanted to refute. However, she thought of Jiang Xia's reputation and the reports about him...
The excuse that was on the tip of my tongue suddenly stopped coming out.
But for my perfect ending...
Yue Yexue felt that she should still struggle.
Because she suddenly realized one thing: when the police were still there, Jiang Xia said nothing.
Yue Yexue: "..." And if you think about it carefully, the traces and evidence left by you are extremely difficult to find. Maybe this young detective just vaguely felt that she was the murderer, but he didn't find conclusive evidence... So now, Jiang Xia came here without telling others, unwillingly wanting to learn her full set of methods?
…
Thinking of this, Yue Yexue's heart, which had been in the air, finally calmed down a little.
In addition, although Jiang Xia snatched her medicine bottle... Yue Yexue glanced at the kitchen knife on the sideboard, and then looked at the high-rise windows without screens, and felt that there were still many ways to say goodbye to choose from.
Yue Yexue: "..." I'm about to leave this world. Before leaving, I'll leave some new knowledge for the lovable little detective, which will help him relax a little and make his death not look too ugly.
Thinking of this, Yue Yexue finally calmed down.
She turned around, leaned against the sink, and looked at Jiang Xia leisurely: "Let me guess - are you curious about where I hid the murder weapon?"
"The murder weapon is the nail of your right thumb. It should be in the sewer now." Jiang Xia said in a tone more skilled than hers:
"Nails are very hard parts of your body. After you cut them finely and polish them to a sharp point, you cover them with nail art clippers to prevent others from seeing them.
"What happened afterwards was what the police had speculated - you took advantage of the time when she changed out of her gi, put on your raincoat and gloves, went to the bathroom, knocked Miss Kusano unconscious with the drugs you had prepared, and then took action.
"In order to avoid getting blood on your hands, you didn't expose your entire hand. You only made a hole at the top of the thumb of your right glove to expose the sharp 'weapon'. The other tattered holes on the glove were to cover up the necessary opening.
"After killing someone, you bite off the nails with your teeth and flush them down the sewer. This way, when the police are looking for the murder weapon and searching the sewer, it is difficult to detect any abnormalities - some people like to cut their nails while taking a bath, so the nails found in the sewer are not easily noticed during the inspection."
Yue Yexue: “…”
...This, this is clearly her line.
...How come this detective seemed to have seen it with his own eyes? !
…
After Jiang Xia finished speaking, he secretly looked at Yue Yexue.
Then he realized that, although this gentle and charming idol had not yet hissed at him with murderous intent, her expression was no longer as calm as before, but was visibly shaken.
Jiang Xia: “…”
He silently referred to the vicious criminals he had encountered in the past.
Feeling… hopeful?
Jiang Xia continued tentatively: "When you bit off the extra nail, you seemed to be not calm enough and didn't notice a spot of blood on your lips. After returning to the living room, you signed the greeting card and printed a lipstick mark on the signature - the lip mark was stained with a drop of blood from Miss Kusano. At first, it was the same red as the lipstick, and it was not very conspicuous. Unfortunately, as time goes by, it will only get darker..."
“…”
The more Yue Yexue listened, the paler her face became:
She actually left such a mistake... I used to think that even if I lost to Kaoru Kusano in life, at least as the "master detective's assistant" in "Detective Samonji", she was more outstanding in handling cases... But I didn't expect that even this masterpiece would be a flawed product with many loopholes in the eyes of a real detective.
