Isn't fighting with cards the same as playing cards?

Manjo Ryuga made a fighting move, and a bright smile appeared on his face.

Seeing the sincere smiles of Takigawa Sayaka and Manjo Ryuga, Kiryu Battle Rabbit could only smile and shake his head.

"I really lost to you." He said.

But then again, this warm feeling like home is really good.

Shiraishi-kun really takes care of everything.

Then, Kiryu Battle Rabbit shook his head and explained: "I have also made preliminary plans for the safety of Nascita Cafe.

"In the next period of time, I will add some simple protection to Nascita Cafe, and I will also give Misora ​​the way to call the Golden Lord.

"If Nascita is attacked again, then with the protection I added, it will still be possible to hold on until I return to Nascita as Build, or until the Golden Lord miraculously appears.

"Of course, Manjo, I am really touched that you have this heart - thank you, Manjo. "

Manjo Ryuga smiled.

Then, Kiryu Sento looked at Kishida Tateya: "Okay, then next, please ask Mr. Kishida to briefly explain the disappearance of Mr. Sato?

"After obtaining basic information, we can determine the general direction of the investigation."

Took the bait

Kishida Tateya nodded slightly. While drinking instant coffee, he slowly said: "The last time I met Brother Sato was on September 5 last year, around 9 o'clock in the morning.

"Not long before that, Brother Sato received an invitation from Katsuragi Takumi, saying that he hoped that Brother Sato could arrive at Katsuragi's house around 9 o'clock to help Katsuragi Takumi test new drugs.

"So I sent my eldest brother to Katsuragi's house, and I have a deep impression of the time at 9 o'clock in the morning."

At the same time, Wanzhang Longwo gradually fell into memories. He leaned on the bar of Nascita Cafe and looked up at the ceiling: "Speaking of which, I was invited by Nabeshima to arrive at Katsuragi's house at about 10 o'clock...

"And when I arrived, Mr. Katsuragi Takumi had been dead for a long time and fell to the ground.

"After that, the people from the Toudou Public Security Bureau arrived at the scene immediately, and I was arrested immediately."

Takigawa Sayo listened to the two people's narration and wrote something in her notebook. She tilted her head slightly and said tentatively: "In this case...

"Then, the real murderer who killed Katsuragi Takumi is very likely to be Sato Taro who came to test the medicine?

"As for the reason for the murder...

"It is likely that, for example, he was not satisfied with the reward after testing the medicine, or found that he might have taken some life-threatening medicine after testing the medicine, so he chose to go all out?

"After all, judging from the current situation, Katsuragi Takumi was already dead when Manjo-kun arrived there.

"Then, the only one who had enough time to kill Katsuragi Takumi was Sato Taro, right?"

However, after hearing Takigawa Sayo's conclusion, Kishida Tateya immediately stood up and shouted, "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"Sato-sama is definitely not that kind of person!"

"Sato-sama is a person who is easily satisfied!"

"If not, we wouldn't have lived in a rented house for so long, and we wouldn't have relied on the meager income of the band to survive!"

"He couldn't have killed someone just because he was dissatisfied with his salary. At most, he would have played the guitar and cursed Katsuragi Takumi for being stingy, and then walked away in a very rock and roll style!"

Seeing this, Takigawa Sayo gently bit her pen, and she thought and said, "So, what if it's the latter case? Is it that after being forced or deceived into taking a new drug that is likely to cause death, he killed Katsuragi Takumi in a rage? ”

Kishida Tateiya was somewhat at a loss. He shook his head and shouted loudly: "No matter what, Brother Sato would never do such a thing. It would be more reasonable to say that it was Katsuragi Takumi, who was called the devil scientist, who killed Brother Sato, right?

"Otherwise, why hasn't Brother Sato come back yet?!"

After hearing what Kishida Tateiya said, everyone who knew that Katsuragi Takumi and Shiraishi were close friends also looked at Shiraishi. They were a little worried about Shiraishi's mood.

But Shiraishi just drank instant coffee lightly. He looked at Kishida Tateiya and nodded slightly. He explained: "Indeed, as Mr. Kishida said, there is a high possibility that Katsuragi-kun finally killed Sato Taro."

Kiryu Battle Rabbit blinked slightly. He was a little surprised. He asked: "Wait a minute, Shiraishi-kun.

"As a close friend of Katsuragi Takumi, shouldn't you defend Katsuragi Takumi at this time?

"Why would you confirm Mr. Kishida's statement and think that Mr. Katsuragi Takumi, who is obviously the victim, is likely to be the real murderer?!"

Shiraishi turned his head and looked at Kiryu Sento. He tapped his temple with a serious expression and explained: "Researcher Kiryu, have you forgotten what our research project is?"

Kiryu Sento was stunned for a moment.

At this moment, store manager Shi Dong also walked out from behind the refrigerator secret passage of Nascita Cafe with difficulty. His shoulders were wrapped in thick bandages, and he seemed to be a little haggard due to excessive blood loss.

Store manager Shi Dong came to Shiraishi. He glanced at Shiraishi, then looked at everyone, and said, "Sure enough, Mr. Shiraishi also roughly guessed that possibility?"

Wan Zhanglong looked at everyone present, scratching his head a little irritably: "What on earth are you talking about?!

"What research project...

"What is the possibility...

"Speak directly, you guys!"

Kiryu Zhantu lowered his head and thought about it. He nodded slightly and said, "I see, does it mean that the light released from Pandora's Box affects people?"

Kiryu Sento came to a conclusion.

Manager Shi Dong looked at Bai Shi sitting there. He caught a glimpse of the can of instant coffee in Bai Shi's hand, and then frowned slightly. He curled his lips. He was helpless, depressed, and finally let out a long sigh. He took a breath, then smiled bitterly and shook his head as if he was betrayed.

【Shiraishi-kun......】

[Did you actually betray me too? ! 】

Then, the store manager Shi Dong said: "During the return ceremony of the Mars rover, after Pandora's box was activated, a strong light emitted from the surface.

"And people who are illuminated by that light show various symptoms such as [increased ambition], [diminished sanity], and [extreme emotions].

"On this point, not only Faust, I think the current Dongdu Advanced Materials Research Institute should also have a definite conclusion on this, right?"

Manager Shi Dong looked at Shiraishi and gave him a questioning look.

Shiraishi nodded slightly.

Then, the store manager Ishidou frowned and spoke again: "Speaking of which, September 5th is also the day when Sento-kun and I escaped from Faust... I wonder if this matter will be related to Katsuragi-kun. What does the murder have to do with it?

"Speaking of which, we encountered the Blood Stalk attack around the afternoon..."

[Evolto has launched follow-up additions to the A3 plan. 】

[He wants to use the words [Mars energy influence] to bind the identity of the active Blood Stalk to the affected Katsuragi Takumi or the affected Sato Taro. 】

[As long as these two people who will never appear in front of Kiryu Sentu become the true identity of Blood Stalk, the investigation of the true identity of Blood Stalk will further reach a deadlock. 】

[Evolto, on the other hand, can take advantage of the time when everyone is focusing on investigating the relationship between Blood Stalk, Katsuragi Takumi, and Sato Taro to do his own thing. 】

[Although the lie will be exposed sooner or later, all Evolto needs is time to restore his strength. 】

[Speaking of which, Shiraishi-kun is quite cooperative~]

[I didn’t even take the initiative to mention the influence of Mars energy, but he raised it for me. 】

[In this way, the conversation will become more natural, and the traces of artificially induced topic changes will be erased. 】

[As expected of Mr. Shiraishi who can appreciate my coffee art, although you drank canned coffee today, you helped me achieve the goal of inducing topic. So, I’ll forgive you for your betrayal. 】

Shiraishi took a sip of canned coffee.

[The super villain Shiraishi concealed his expression by drinking coffee. He was afraid that if he didn't do this, he might not be able to suppress his laughter. 】

[Evolto, took the bait. 】

096-Mars Parasite

Takigawa Sayu tilted her head slightly, and she concluded while taking notes: "So that means, it is very likely that Katsuragi Takumi killed Sato Taro under the influence of that Martian energy?

"But even if his rationality is reduced, he should have a reason to specially invite people to kill him, right?

"So far, we have never seen a vicious case in which an affected murderer carried out indiscriminate killings?

"And no matter how you look at it, inviting someone over is a very purposeful act, right?

"Moreover, didn't Katsuragi Takumi hold a funeral later? Logically speaking, Shiraishi-kun, you should have witnessed the whole process of Katsuragi Takumi's body being buried?

"In this case, no matter what, it is impossible for Katsuragi Takumi to be the murderer of Sato Taro, right?

"He had no reason to kill Taro Sato, and at the same time he himself became a dead person.

"No matter how you look at it, the missing Taro Sato is more suspicious than the buried Takumi Katsuragi, right?"

However, Shiraishi shook his head and said: "If it were before today, I would indeed have made the same reasoning as Sister Sayu, but after hearing Manager Ishido explain his past with Researcher Kiryu, Naturally, my reasoning has changed a little because of this.”

Shiraishi looked at Takigawa Sayu: "As for Katsuragi-kun's reason for killing people, it seems very simple now.

"The golden cicada sheds its shell.

"If it was to erase all traces of his existence and become Faust's active Blood Stalk as a dead person that no one knows, then everything Katsuragi-kun did can be explained.

"As the deceased, Katsuragi-kun can eliminate all suspicion, while Sato Taro is suspected because of his disappearance.

“Furthermore, in the future, there will be victims like me, Wan Zhanglong, who are forcibly accused of being wronged...

“People even have to eliminate the suspicion of Wanzhang Ryuga before they can suspect the missing Taro Sato.

"With all the layers of cover-up, it will be difficult for anyone to discover the truth about what happened in the Katsuragi Residence.

"And in this way, the matter of Katsuragi-kun joining Faust has become a secret that even his mother and me, a close friend, cannot know.

"Ms. Katsuragi does not need to bear the reputation of her son Katsuragi being a devil, and I, who is close to her, will not be blamed for Katsuragi-kun's sins - on the contrary, everyone will sympathize with us and sympathize with us for being deceived by the devil Katsuragi-kun. .

"Perhaps, this is the last trace of conscience left by Katsuragi-kun under the influence of Mars energy.

“He didn’t want to implicate us.

"Furthermore, isn't this just in line with what Manager Ishido said [The active Blood Stalk appeared on September 5th, and because he recognized Researcher Kiryu's wisdom, he erased Researcher Kiryu's memory, and tried to get Researcher Kiryu to continue working for Faust. Is the statement "De Xiao Ming" completely consistent?

"I believe that even if he is affected by the energy of Mars and decides to do something radical, Katsuragi-kun will still recognize the genius of Researcher Kiryu.

"Everything is right!"

Kiryu Zhantu frowned slightly and continued to ask: "But, Shiraishi-kun, didn't you witness Katsuragi Takumi's funeral and clearly know that his body was buried? In this case, he was obviously the victim, How could it be the murderer?

"How do you explain this?"

But Shiraishi turned to look at Kiryu Sento, he nodded slightly, and then explained: "If it is Faust, if it is Katsuragi-kun, this problem can be easily explained.

"Faust has advanced instruments and equipment, as well as rich archival records of human experiments, while Katsuragi-kun has a genius mind and sufficient wisdom...

“Whether it is using facial shaping methods or using tissue similar to human skin to cover the appearance of the real victim Taro Sato, it is not impossible.

“Also, don’t forget, according to the intelligence we have received so far, Faust is still able to infiltrate the Dongdu government and control the Dongdu Public Security Bureau to a certain extent.

“In this way, false death reports, false identity certificates, and false case files are easily accessible, right?

"It is not difficult for Faust to fake Taro Sato's body as the deceased Katsuragi-kun.

"Because there is no process of autopsy and DNA verification at all, people close to Katsuragi-kun can only use appearance to identify whether the deceased is Katsuragi-kun.

"And it couldn't be easier to cover up your appearance."

[Evolto could hardly restrain himself from cheering for Shiraishi and giving him a warm hug. 】

【Bravo! Shiraishi-kun! 】

【That's it, that's it! 】

[The [truth] of the matter, this is how it should be! 】

[If I can one day complete my evolution and become the ultimate life form that surpasses all, I must let you be my staff and become the only human being beside the noble Blood royal family! 】

[You are the only human being who can understand me so well, Shiraishi-kun! 】

Wanzhang Longga shook his head and said: "How could this happen? Could it be that the person who framed me was Shiraishi-kun's best friend, Katsuragi Takumi?

"how so?!"

Everyone also looked at Shiraishi, seeming to be a little worried about Shiraishi's mental state, worried that Shiraishi would not be able to accept that Katsuragi Takumi might be the culprit.

Shiraishi just drank the last sip of canned coffee.

[Evolto is cheering. He doesn’t know that he has reached the end of his rope. He has completely walked into the trap designed by the super villain Shiraishi. 】

[Now, Shiraishi is going to carry out his plan. 】
