Vol 4 Chapter 14: Jason: I'm on the 5th floor

Jason stretched his tone on purpose.

　　 Then, he looked at office workers, shop assistants, and female students. His eyes were sharp as a knife, which made people tremble involuntarily.

　　 Office workers, shop assistants, and female students are all pale, and as the only girl, female students are trembling even more.

who is it?

　　 Hurry up!

　　 I am so anxious!

　　 Hui Lijing couldn't help shouting from the bottom of her heart, but she didn't dare to interrupt.

　　 As a stubborn detective, although he is a stubborn detective, she is also a detective. She still knows some of the detective’s ‘basic skills’.

　　 For example: fraud!

　　There are two ways of fraud.

　　 First, when the general direction is already known but cannot be accurately judged, words are used to stimulate the criminal, so as to truly lock the target.

　　Second, I don’t know who the murderer is at all, and then use words to expose the criminals to their flaws, or cooperate with some extreme methods.

　　 As for how to choose?

　　 That depends on the level of the detective.

　　The excellent detective chooses the first one.

　　 Although she is excellent, she basically chooses the second one.

　　 It doesn't matter whether it is fraud or not, mainly because she likes to convince people with reason.

　　Physical, rational.

Ryosuke on the side of 　　 frowned.

　　 He is not very proficient in interrogation.

　　 However, as an excellent criminal policeman, his rich experience told him that at this time, he needs to cooperate.

　　 So, the next moment--

　　 "It turned out to be like this!"

After 　　 Ryosuke sighed slightly, an inexplicable expression appeared on his face.

　　 is not only unbelievable, but also relieved, and there is a trace of pity.

　　 In short, it is as complicated as it is.

　　 After hearing Ryosuke’s words, the expressions of the office workers, middle-aged shop assistants, and female students who have been struggling to support changed.

　　 The three glanced at each other, and the most inconspicuous middle-aged clerk took a deep breath.

　　 "You found it by Officer Ryosuke."

　　 "Although we have been well-dressed, in the eyes of an old detective like you, there are many flaws, right?"

　　 "Maybe you didn't recognize it at first, but as long as it takes a long time, you will find out."

　　 The middle-aged clerk said so, and just stood up straight.

　　 The look of fear on his face was wiped out.

　　 is not only the middle-aged clerk, but also office workers and female students.

　　 Ryosuke was taken aback.

who are you?

　　 However, the middle-aged criminal police did not deny it.

　　 He didn't forget that he was cooperating with Jason at this time.

　　 Therefore, he nodded calmly.

　　 "That's right."

　　 "I didn't recognize it at first, but now I can be sure."

　　 "And the injuries on my body... also to let the pain and exhaustion affect my judgment, so I left it when I played against Iwashita?"

　　 Ryosuke said, pointing to the injury on his arm.

"Ok."

　　 "Unfortunately it is of no use to you."

　　 "We still underestimated you, and this... detective?"

　　 The middle-aged clerk shook his head regretfully.

　　 looked at Jason's gaze, somewhat uncertain.

　　 And until this time, Hui Lijing could be considered to have recovered.

　　 The female detective raised her voice.

　　 "Are you all murderers?!"

　　 Her voice is full of incredible.

　　 In Hui Lijing's thoughts, the murderer was narrowly defined as one person, and he never thought that three people would commit the crime at the same time.

　　 "The murderer?"

　　 "We are just revenge!"

　　 "Ten years ago, he killed me and our family!"

　　 The youngest girl student couldn't help refuting.

A school uniform in a short skirt, with a cut hair, a good-looking face, and the female student who did not use pink and daisy was full of youthful and lively atmosphere before, but at this time, she was only left with a terrifying hatred. .

　　 The hatred that makes people awe-inspiring.

　　 She stared at Hui Lijing, causing the female detective to subconsciously grasp the handle of the gun.

　　 Then, the female student turned around and looked at the hanging body.

　　 "Ten years ago, he killed my father."

　　 "Kill his mother."

　　 "Kill his lover."

　　 "Now, we kill him, just revenge!"

　　 The female student pointed to the office worker and then to the middle-aged clerk, her tone gradually recovered.

　　 "Is he a wanted criminal?"

　　 Hui Lijing frowned.

"of course!"

　　 "Furthermore, he is still a wanted criminal with a big name."

　　 "Ten years ago, he entered the house and robbed three times. Each time he killed the owner and plundered his property. Then, he was arrested by the police officer at Liangjie, but he killed the **** and escaped.

　　 The female student still answered.

　　Even Hui Lijing could hear the sarcasm in the female student's words.

　　 "Sorry."

　　 "It is my responsibility."

　　 Ryosuke whispered.

　　 Regret appeared on the face of the middle-aged police officer.

　　 If he worked harder, Iwashita would not run away.

　　 If he worked harder, Iwashita could be captured directly.

　　 If he worked harder, the three innocent people in front of him would not have blood in their hands.

　　 "No, Officer Ryosuke, this is not your responsibility."

　　 "Your efforts are beyond the imagination of others."

　　 "Thank you."

　　 The female student solemnly bowed to Ryosuke.

　　 Office workers and middle-aged shop assistants are the same.

　　 However, when the three of them straightened up, the office worker spoke directly.

　　 "We chose our way."

　　 "We know this is illegal."

　　 "But we have no choice."

　　 "We can't wait any longer."

　　 "We can't watch him run away, so when this opportunity appeared in front of us, we didn't refuse it-the hatred day and night has long made us unable to choose."

　　 The voice of the office worker became high-pitched.

　　The middle-aged clerk is to comfort the office workers.

　　 It can be seen that the oldest person is the leader of the three.

　　 After the office worker calmed down, he turned his head and looked at Jason, Ryosuke, and Hui Lijing.

　　 "We do not have any malicious intent."

　　 "Appearing here, I just hope to trap you here temporarily."

　　 "Besides..."

　　 The middle-aged man seemed to want to say something, but finally shook his head.

　　 "The first round is over, the murderer has been found."

　　 "Now, the second round begins."

　　 "You want to catch me-the information is in the box behind the plaque."

　　 The female student finished speaking, and the surrounding darkness wrapped the three of them.

　　 Then, the three of them disappeared.

　　 Until the three disappeared, Ryosuke and Hui Lijing were shocked.

　　The two didn't remember until this time that this was not an ordinary murder scene, but in an inexplicable environment.

　　 almost subconsciously, Ryosuke picked up the ladder again.

　　 He wants to take down the box behind the plaque.

"Do you need help?"

　　 Hui Lijing asked, but was rejected by Ryosuke.

　　 Hui Lijing didn't force it any more, but looked at Jason.

　　 "Jason, how did you find out?"

　　 "Is the exorcist also trained as a detective?"

　　 Hui Lijing asked.

　　 I have professional skills.

　　 Jason answered silently in his heart, but he said the words he used to say often——

　　 "Everything is obvious."

　　 In the illusory and real world where the female pastry chef is, Jason often uses this sentence to fool everything. With the help of the female pastry chef to explain, naturally there is no problem.

　　 But Hui Lijing in front of her does not possess such qualities.

　　 She tilted her head and thought for a long time.

　　 The curls covering the forehead and the eyes are tilted aside, revealing beautiful eyes.

　　 It is a pity that these eyes are full of confusion.

　　Obviously?

　　 Why didn’t I see it?

　　 Am I missing a lot of important clues?

　　 Hui Lijing frowned, and after four or five seconds, she popped out of her mouth.

　　 "The results are there, the process is not important, right?"

　　 Talking, Hui Lijing looked at Jason expectantly.

　　 After a second of silence, Jason nodded.

　　 Because, he doesn't know how to explain it either.

　　 Silently, he missed the female pastry chef a little bit.

　　 "Look at this box."

　　 Ryosuke held the box behind the plaque in one hand and jumped straight off the ladder.

The 　　 box is made of wood, about the size of an adult's palm. There is no lock on it and it can be opened directly.

　　 Inside is a piece of paper, on the paper is written with a brush--

　　 I'm lined up east, without eyes.

　　 I am lined up in the west, without ears.

　　 I'm lined up in the north, without arms.

　　 I am lined up in the south, without legs.

　　……

　　Ryosuke frowned at the endless words, and Hui Lijing was even more confused.

　　 After a while, both of them raised their heads and looked at Jason.

　　 "Did Jason find anything?"

　　 Hui Lijing asked.

　　 "The handwriting is the same as the handwriting left to us before."

　　 Jason said.

　　 "We know this!"

　　 "Except for this?"

　　 Hui Lijing asked.

　　 Then, as soon as she finished asking, she found that Jason was looking at her with a weird look.

　　 Hui Lijing was looked at very unnaturally. She even thought that her shoelaces had been opened, so she couldn't help but look down.

　　 "Maybe this is not the ‘mysterious side’ of knowledge, but I hope you can remember—"

　　 "Never follow the steps of the enemy."

　　 Jason answered like this.

　　 While talking, Jason walked outside the temple.

　　 Until now, Jason still doesn't know what happened.

　　 But one thing is certain, the man behind the scenes brought him here, not for the tea party.

　　 As for the words of fresh workers, middle-aged shop assistants and female students?

　　 Jason would never believe a word.

　　 He had learned not to believe anyone's words, especially the words of the enemy, before he learned not to follow the steps of the enemy.

　　 Maybe these three people are not malicious.

　　 Maybe these three people are not lying.

　　 But!

　　 This does not mean that the man behind the scenes has no malice or lies.

　　 The other party can use lies to fool the three.

　　 Then, I used the mouth of the three to numb them.

　　 This is a better way than lying directly.

　　Because...office workers, middle-aged shop assistants, and female students trust each other.

　　 Even if the other party tells a lie, the three of them will believe it is true.

　　 Then, the three of them will tell them this as true.

　　 But who can know what the real result will be?

　　 So, even if Jason can still perceive the death of the three of them at this time, he can easily determine the location of the three, but he will not look for them.

　　 He can imagine it, even if he finds three people.

　　 will inevitably appear in the third and fourth rounds.

　　 is even more entanglement.

　　 Under such entanglement, everything will become more confusing.

　　 is far better than starting from the most direct place.

　　 Once and for all!

　　 is always the best solution!

　　 Hui Lijing and Ryosuke who were following Jason were also thinking.

　　 "Is there any countermeasure?"

　　 "Can the three murderers be forced to show up automatically?"

　　 Ryosuke thought so.

　　 But Hui Lijing is much simpler.

　　 "Jason must have found the murderer, and went to pursue the murderer."

　　 Obviously, this is a limitation or habit of thinking.

　　 Give a chestnut (example is good, but chestnuts are not bad)——

　　 Hui Lijing is on the first floor.

　　 Ryosuke is on the second floor.

　　 Jason is on the fifth floor

　　……

　　 In the courtyard, the "Jinglu" up and down made the peculiar sound of bamboo and rock fighting.

　　 Within a squat, the water droplets rise and fall, causing layers of ripples.

The handsome man holding a folding fan gently tapped his palm with the folding fan, and a smile appeared on the other's white cheeks. He slightly narrowed his slender, fox-like eyes and looked at the ups and downs in the courtyard. deer'.

　　The waiter walked behind the handsome man with a small pace.

　　 "My lord, those three have completed the first stage."

　　 "But..."

　　 "That Jason found out immediately."

　　 "Then the Ryosuke detective also discovered something was wrong."

　　 the waiter said softly.

　　 The handsome man was not surprised.

　　 instead, he nodded naturally.

"Of course."

　　 "After all, he is an exorcist who has avoided dozens of pursuits."

　　 "If you can't even find out the clue, it would be really disappointing."

　　 "As for the Ryosuke detective?"

　　 "If he hadn't been too short-tempered and too straightforward, he would have already been a policeman for his credit, and he was the case he was dealing with. Such a discovery should be made."

　　 Speaking of this, the handsome man has a meal.

　　 "Otherwise, how can I enter the second round?"

　　 After speaking, the handsome man seemed to have discovered something interesting, and his expression became more and more happy.

　　 He raised his hand and waved.

　　The waiter retreated respectfully.

　　 Then, the handsome man looked towards the courtyard.

　　 I saw an old monk wearing a gray rag monk robe in the courtyard.

　　The old monk is dirty and very sloppy~www.wuxiaspot.com~The face is also black.

　　 However, those eyes are very bright.

　　 At this moment, these bright eyes are staring at the handsome man.

　　 "Monk Tongshou Temple, you are finally willing to appear."

　　 The handsome man smiled.
