Chapter 774: It’s not that I won’t report it, the time has not come yet
“...Do you know him?”
Dohyo Masahiko, who was about to make a sharp comment about Kyogoku’s bad attitude, met at the table The other people's expressions were normal and they could only swallow the complaints that came to their lips.
If you give a bad evaluation at this time, it can easily affect their impression of yourself.
Tao Xie Masahiko, whose purpose was to get close to them, changed to a cautious inquiry, and was ready to talk about other things after the inquiry was clear.
"Ah, he doesn't seem to be in a good mood today." Mao Lilan looked at Kyogoku Zhen's leaving figure and expressed something strange.
"He is the waiter in the hotel where we are staying." Suzuki Sonoko answered Dao Xie Masahiko, looking at the back with confused eyes, "I heard that he came back to help during the summer vacation, it seems to be the hotel The boss's son."
"You asked very clearly." Mao Lilan glanced at Suzuki Sonoko's expression, "When did you ask?"
Kyogoku really found them to inform them of Karasawa's situation, so the two girls who were immersed in worry naturally had no time to take care of these things.
"Karasawa told me." Suzuki Sonoko looked at Karasawa who had just exchanged a few words with Kyogoku Makoto, "You seem to be somewhat familiar with him."
"Oh? Yes, you know he is here to help today?" Mao Lilan also remembered to ask.
The focus of several people turned to Tang Ze. Taoist Association Masahiko also turned his head and observed Tang Ze's movements legitimately.
If this is a restaurant that the other party intends to guide, he will have to consider changing his positioning towards this person and change his thinking.
After all, when Karasawa said hello, he not only called out the person's name accurately, but also acted as if he knew why the other person was here. In that case, he would be playing away from home and would need to make some adjustments. .
"I know, the owner of this place is the same as the Takuya Hotel where we are staying." Karasawa nodded, "It is not normal for Mr. Kyogoku to help anywhere. I asked the hotel staff yesterday Asked. Despite Mr. Kyogoku’s taciturn appearance, he is still very enthusiastic.”
It's normal to appear here. This guy has been following Suzuki Sonoko for so long out of concern for Suzuki Sonoko. It's normal for him to go to a seafood restaurant closer to the beach.
"...be a little vigilant." Conan, who was sipping his drink, couldn't stand it when he heard this, "I saw him staring at us yesterday."
Because The lenses were obstructed, so it was hard to see which one he was staring at, but as long as they appeared outside the guest room, they could see Kyogoku looking at them intently, which easily set off alarm bells in his heart.
Tangze touched the cute cat on his lap, smiled, and did not answer.
Feeling that the topic was leaving him, Masahiko Daokyo extracted key words from the conversation that he could intervene in, and quickly looked at Sonoko Suzuki with a smile: "Are you staying at the Takuya Hotel this time? It’s very close to the hotel where I’m staying. Do you want to go to a luxurious restaurant on the beach together? I can drive along.”
Of course he had seen the Tile House Hotel, which was a Japanese-style hotel with a somewhat dated feel across the street from his hotel.
In his impression, this kind of house is much cheaper than ordinary hotels with uniform interior decoration requirements, which shows that these high school students are not from very wealthy families.
Sometimes, the offensive of money can be a bit too straightforward, but for little girls who have never seen the world, luxurious life is naturally a hotbed for the birth of romance and longing, and you can take advantage of the situation to create a melancholy person. The image of a wanderer.
Gao Fushuai put the pestle over and waved his hand, I will pay the bill. This scene is so oppressive.
Just in time, the next topic will be better brought out.
Conan, who was holding the soda drink, couldn't help but shrink back. Seeing Suzuki Sonoko's shining eyes, he had to get closer to Karasawa: "Hey, look at his expression."
Karasawa waved his hand. , as if to ward off flies that flew in front of him, but since he was sitting next to this person, he did not answer directly.
This face is filled with the complacency of "I'm so small, I can't win over you". Even with the blessing of looks, people can't help but sigh that it's too strong.
"Confidence is also a kind of moral character." Tang Ze whispered with high emotional intelligence.
While the two of them were whispering here, Suzuki Sonoko had already shown a very useful smile of joy to Daoxie Masahiko.
What kind of restaurant has she never seen?
As long as she wants, she can even send a few senior chefs home to cook and enjoy.
The main point of her happiness was the attentive invitation from the other party, which made her feel that she was valued.
But Dao Xie Masahiko, who thought he had a complete grasp of the other party's mentality, looked at her smiling face and just snorted contemptuously in his heart.
What a frivolous and shallow money-worshiping girl, her eyes lit up when she heard about the luxury restaurant.
It seems that as long as he further hints that his family is well off and he has no shortage of money, he can easily win.
So, Tao Xie Masahiko was too lazy to continue describing and praising the store he mentioned, and fast forwarded directly to the real purpose: "You can bring your camera with you."
"Why, "Is the scenery over there nice?" Suzuki Sonoko asked curiously,
"You must have heard that something happened on the beach next to the restaurant more than a year ago" Daoxie Masahiko introduced him. What I really want to ask about is, "It was a murder case. The body of a passenger with long brown hair was found there. His abdomen was stabbed all over the place, and his death seemed very tragic."
"Murder?" Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan asked in unison.
"Stabbed in the abdomen?" Conan's focus changed quickly.
Karazawa, who had nothing to ask, thought for a while, and in order to join the group, he also asked a question: "You also came to Izu a year ago..."
I felt that my train of thought was interrupted. For a moment, Taoist Association Masahiko glanced at the four people.
How should he organize the language appropriately...
No wonder this boy came to interfere with his affairs last night. He seems to be a nosy person.
"Yes, I also traveled to Izu a year ago. Anyway, when I was discovered, many people were frightened. There was blood everywhere. Because he was suddenly killed on the way to the restaurant, there were no witnesses at all. Before he was discovered, It happened to rain heavily, but it hasn't been revealed yet." Tao Xie Masahiko tenaciously expressed what he needed to express.
"Mr. Dao Xie, are you familiar with the police in Shizuoka Prefecture?" Conan asked with a strange face, "Do you know their progress so clearly?"
This kind of guest death News from other places is definitely negative news for tourist cities. Under normal circumstances, the local police are not willing to let such cases be reported for a long time, which will affect the development of local tourism.
You are a college student and not a local. How did you know whether the case was solved or not?
Tangze glanced approvingly at Conan, who was very capable of grasping key points.
It may be that Adachi Toru's appearance yesterday put him completely into the state of conversation analysis. Not only is he now very capable of grasping key points, he is also highly wary of strangers participating in the chat. This time, maybe he can really be faster. Lock onto the opponent.
Does he know the reason why the case was not solved? Of course it's because he, the real murderer, was not caught!
Daoxie Masahiko, who was choked for two seconds, glanced at this little kid with a weak sense of presence, and reluctantly replied: "Oh, because it was a tragedy that happened while traveling, so I paid attention to the follow-up news. , I haven’t seen the case solved yet.”
“Frequent stabs in the abdomen…” Karasawa, who wanted to further aggravate Dao Xie Masahiko’s displeasure, folded his arms in a decent manner, “I’ve seen it. The profiling of some similar cases. It seems that criminal psychology believes that multiple stabbings with sharp objects are a sexual act. This is probably a murder or a sexual offender. "
"There is another saying... I seem to have heard you talk about it before." Mao Lilan was stunned for a while, and the speed of drinking water was much slower.
"Ah, because of the classic labels related to serial killers." Tangze waved his hand casually, "Childhood problems, antisocial personality, overage bedwetting, cruelty and killing of small animals, and then what kind of dysfunction."
< br>"Cough cough cough..." Dao Xie Masahiko choked violently after taking a sip of beer. Suzuki Sonoko exclaimed, covering the lower half of her face, her wide eyes looking curious and excited.
"Because that kind of ability is not enough, I used a weapon instead to complete a kind of mental 'violation' to vent." Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Kyogoku Makoto, who was wandering around. His back suddenly stiffened, Karasawa smiled casually, "But this kind of psychology is more commonly used in the United States, so it may not be applicable here. This is an empirical subject after all."
Tao Xie Masahiko pinched The fingers on the handle of the glass obviously tightened, and it was obvious that he was very uneasy inside. He didn't know whether he was right or was being slandered, so he was filled with anger.
But facing these people, he couldn't show it yet, and it was probably quite uncomfortable to hold it in.
It’s okay to feel uncomfortable, but there will be even more uncomfortable things next.
"...Anyway, after that incident, there were rumors that she particularly liked that restaurant during her lifetime, so she often goes there now." Dao Xie Masahiko took a deep breath and firmly changed the topic back, " So in the photos taken in that restaurant, we often see ghosts with ruptured abdomens and internal organs leaking out.”
“Ah—” Mao Lilan, who was most afraid of this kind of topic, immediately shrank her neck.
Conan squinted his eyes and looked at the inexplicable stiff smile on Tao Xie Masahiko's face with disdain.
Nonsense, what kind of bastard is this who scares girls to tease each other...
"So you want to verify this urban legend?" Suzuki Sonoko was shocked, and soon the channel switched to curiosity, " Then, go and try to pat it?”
“Don’t, don’t, don’t-” Mao Lilan hurriedly raised his hands and made a sign, completely panicked, “I can’t even eat like this. "
"Well, I don't think there's anything to be afraid of." Tangze glanced at Daoxie Masahiko's face and said pointedly, "Even if there are real ghosts, I think. , maybe the reason why this poor woman refuses to reincarnate is not because she likes the restaurant, but because the murderer has been to the restaurant, and she is waiting persistently for him to come again so that she can ask for her life. "
"Where? There’s no need to be afraid!” Mao Lilan, who still felt a chill in her spine, almost screamed.
"The police couldn't give her an explanation, so she did it on her own. That's actually quite good, isn't it? If all the people in the world who died unjustly could become ghosts and do it themselves, with plenty of food and clothing, the detectives and police would be much more free." Karasawa made a nondescript quote.
Hey, hey, hey, you are almost writing your support for lynching on your face, you guy...
Knowing that there are many differences between his friend's ideas and his own, Conan's mouth twitched and he stretched out his hand. He tugged at the corner of Tangze's clothes, trying to get him to control it a little more.
As a result, I only pulled it a little and was pressed down by the cold rough flesh pad.
Conan lowered his head, looked at the Siamese cat who stretched out his paws on Karasawa's legs to prevent him from touching Karasawa, and then retracted his hand with the corner of his mouth twitching.
Why do all the cats in the Phantom Thieves seem to want to protect Karasawa? They somehow still keep their original intentions...
Yes, he is basically sure that this one is a lot fatter and a little bit fatter. The burned Siamese should be the nekko that Kitagawa Yusuke saved from Moritani Teiji's bomb.
His name is somewhat similar to that of a cat. He tried to call twice just now. Although no one paid attention to him, Siamese's ears flicked along with his call. It was obvious that he could hear it. Give your own name.
How should I put it? The shape and color of a Siamese can change at will, so that it is difficult to recognize whether it is the same Siamese. Should we praise them for keeping pets in line with their ideals?
"Would you like to go take a photo?" Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but get excited.
When Karasawa described it in a cool tone like telling a ghost story, she suddenly felt like watching a horror movie, which was inexplicably exciting.
Dao Xie Masahiko paused as he flicked the cigarette ashes, and glanced at Tangze, who was smiling but didn’t sound like he was joking. Instead, he was a little discouraged, and reluctantly said: "Well, that’s it after all. It was a rumor a year ago. Even if there is a ghost, she might have given up..."
Tangze, who was not about to let him go, shook his finger: "It's hard to say. I'm an atheist, but. I would like to believe that there are ghosts in the world. If people’s consciousness can remain in the world after death, and there is even talk of reincarnation or reincarnation, that would actually be a very gratifying thing.”
said. At this time, he naturally picked up the camera Suzuki Sonoko put on the table, pointed it directly at Daoxie Masahiko and clicked the shutter.
The sharp flash flashed suddenly, and Dao Xie Masahiko couldn't help closing his eyes, showing a slightly ferocious expression for a moment.
He watched Karasawa cover his eyes with the camera, only showing the corners of his mouth with a meaningful smile, rubbing his back molars twice, and almost revealing an inappropriately ferocious expression in front of Suzuki Sonoko.
This flash of light reminded him of the embarrassment he felt last night when he was at the height of his emotions and was interrupted by a sudden flash of light, and then found out that he had been caught.
Did this boy actually see his face last night, but he was testing his own reaction due to some reasons, such as uncertainty or lack of evidence?
Sure enough, we can't keep them anymore. When we find the right opportunity, we should kill all four of them one by one.
Karasawa's somewhat unexpected behavior suddenly attracted the attention of everyone at the table, including Kyogoku Makoto, who approached with the fried noodles they ordered.
"This will prove that there is a set of rules in the world that are higher than reality and can judge loyalty, good and evil, and distinguish right from wrong. This will make me have more expectations for this world."
Tangze put down The camera tilted its head, no longer looking at Tao Xie Masahiko's face with changing expressions.
"Maybe the deceased has found the murderer and is standing beside him without saying a word, looking for an opportunity for revenge? Maybe it sounds a bit scary, but if this can comfort the spirit of the deceased in heaven, I I think it’s pretty good. It’s not that I won’t retaliate, the time has not yet come.”
No one is more qualified to take up the guillotine of trial than the dead victim himself, Tang Ze thinks so.
"Meow~" The cat lying quietly on Tang Ze's lap meowed in time, as if to agree with his point of view.
————
"In the end, we decided to change the place for dinner." Mao Lilan sat in the front hall of the hotel and sighed softly, "I didn't expect Mr. Dao Xie to be more courageous than me. After hearing what Tang Ze said, he decided to change his itinerary. "
"Not necessarily, maybe because the cost of the luxury restaurant was too high. He calculated that he would take four people there, which was a little bit. Can't afford it?" Suzuki Sonoko seemed unaffected and shrugged easily.
She doesn’t care whether her boyfriend is rich or not. After all, she is already rich enough and does not need to find someone with a prominent family background to show her identity. Her parents also care about the two sisters. She has always had the attitude of letting them please and doing whatever she likes. Suzuki Sonoko is very relaxed and insensitive in this regard.
"Doesn't this sound worse..." Conan twitched the corner of his mouth twice and straightened his expression slightly, "I feel that Brother Tang Ze mainly wants to express his dissatisfaction with Mr. Dao Xie."< br>
Not long after lunch, Karasawa said that he was going to contact the lady who had left the cat with him, so he left the team. The few of them made a new appointment with Taoist Association Masahiko for the dinner place in the evening, set a meeting time, and went back first. Came to the hotel.
So now they have the opportunity to discuss what happened at the previous dinner table behind their backs.
“Hey, is it possible?” Suzuki Sonoko held her face in her hands as she thought back, feeling confused.
Yes, although Karasawa seemed a little emotionally disturbed when he suddenly picked up the camera to take pictures, the smile at the corner of his mouth did not change. Is that considered aggressive?
"I feel a little bit too. I guess he is not satisfied with Mr. Dao Xie threatening us with things like murder." Mao Lilan hugged her knees and guessed, "There are indeed boys who have this routine. .”
"First, I'll tell you about a very luxurious restaurant, and then I'll tell you a bunch of urban legends that exist or not. It will scare you so much that you don't dare to go there. If you're really scared, you'll probably have to say, 'Don't worry, I'll protect you.'" You're like..." Conan rolled his eyes, "It's all a routine."
"Well, okay..." Suzuki Sonoko thought for a while and felt that she couldn't refute it, so she simply didn't consider it. question, "I think we should worry about Tangze's psychological problems. When he said those words at noon, he didn't seem to be joking. He didn't seem to be over the influence of those things at all. After all, his parents were like this, and his The case is..."
Tangze, whose parents have died and he has been wrongfully accused, expressed his hope that there will be a fairer judgment in the world after death, and it is best for the deceased to stay in the world. His speech was somewhat sad.
"I really hope that he can fight these emotions sooner..."
Standing at the bar, Kyogoku couldn't help but pause while wiping the table.
