"But how do you explain this?" I obviously ignored Kaito's existence and picked up the knife on the ground. "If this is the case, how could the murderer drop the knife? Moreover, the position is wrong, and...

There are no traces on the ground. If the murderer dropped the knife out of panic, there should be traces on the ground, right?... Could it be that the murderer arranged all of this to disrupt our thinking?" I frowned and looked.

Come on, things... are not that simple...

"Xi, take a closer look at this blood stain." Kaito squatted down and lightly touched the blood stain on the first floor with his hand, "It's not dry yet, which means the crime occurred between 8:00 and 9:30. Do you feel that

Weird?"

"No, the murderer couldn't have arranged all this in just one hour and 30 minutes, let alone created an illusion." I frowned, "Kaito, what are you talking about that's weird?"

"At that time, we rushed over after seeing the SOS on the window on the second floor. According to your reasoning, the victim ran to the second floor and struggled for help. But why was there no sign of a fight or struggle on the second floor? Not even a trace of blood.

Could it be that the murderer still has time to clean up the blood stains?" Kaito stood up and leaned against the wall, "You can think of the rest yourself."

"So, all this is not an illusion arranged by the murderer, but the original crime scene... This is..." I looked up inadvertently and saw the traces of nails on the upper left side, "I know... there is only one truth.

!” (Author: Is this considered plagiarism? Xi: What do you think? Author: I don’t know...)

"According to your statement, the crime occurred between 8:00 and 9:30, so the only people who have the opportunity to kill the victim are Mr. Yamada, the original owner of this house, and Ms. Tsukino, the victim's good friend." The police responsibly held up a

As the notebook was being recorded, he looked up from time to time and asked Kaito and I. Really, I'm not a murderer. Why are you asking me? (Author: Don't you know that a confession is required? Nozomi: It turns out that a confession is required. I understand.

"Uuu~ I really didn't know this would happen, otherwise I wouldn't have let Masiko come here from France today... Uu~" Miss Tsukino covered her face with her hands, and tears kept falling.

"You mean the victim just came back today?...Who else knows about this?" I looked at Miss Tsukino coldly. It seemed that the truth was getting closer.

"Mr. Yamada also knows...and Masiko's parents...seem to be gone..." Ms. Tsukino raised her head and looked at me.

"Miss Tsukino, are you still going to pretend? If your guess is correct, it should be like this: you learned the news that the victim was coming back, and you arranged all the illusions the day before, including the glass of red wine and cigarette butts. After that,

You hid in the grass at the door, and when the victim came back, you cut the fishing line short and slashed the victim with the knife naturally, causing the victim to die on the spot. Then, you ran upstairs and painted a big picture on the window.

Sos. Yes, this is all perfect, but you have ignored the fact that there is not even a trace of fighting on the second floor." A sneer appeared at the corner of my mouth.

"Based on this reasoning, you say I am a murderer. Where is the evidence?" Miss Tsukino raised her head stubbornly.

"It's like there are traces of lipstick on the fishing line. Mr. Yamamoto can't do it, right? I think there are a lot of fishing lines in the pile of grass. As long as the police officer checks the fingerprints, he will know whether the murderer is you.

." The smile on my face did not disappear.

"No, yes, I killed Yamiko... We used to be very good friends, but she actually stole my boyfriend!!! If Yamizi knew that I was the murderer, she should hate me

Are you going to kill me? Hahahahahahahahahahaha--" Miss Tsukino laughed uncontrollably and left with the police.

"Thanks for the reminder." I turned my head and looked at Kaito who looked indifferent.

"Um...waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, too late," Kaito suddenly shouted.

"It's over! Forgot to go to school! Oh no!!!" I pulled Kaito and ran to Ekoda High School...
