Chapter 1524 Something Really Happened (Let's Meow and Meow Together)

Before dawn the next day, a hasty knock on the door interrupted Fangzheng and Huahua's dream.

"Really, what the hell are you doing so early?"

Looking at the dark sky outside, Fangzheng yawned, then stood up and went to the door, and opened the door. Soon, I saw an old man wearing a housekeeper's uniform outside the door, standing there, looking at her seriously.

"I'm very sorry to disturb you at this time, but... please come to the lobby immediately!"

After saying this, the old butler left in a hurry, while Fang Zheng exchanged glances with Huahua who had just gotten up from another bed, showing a puzzled expression.

"What's wrong? Xiaohong?"

Putting on her coat hastily, Hua Hua also came to Fang Zheng's side and asked curiously, while Fang Zheng curled his lips.

"Just go and have a look."

As Fang Zheng said, when the two came to the lobby, they immediately understood what happened.

At the end of the lobby, on the angel statue in the center of the stairs, a woman was hanging there.

Strictly speaking, she looked like she was pierced by the long sword in the hand of the angel statue and then raised high, appearing in front of everyone in this posture.

Although the woman's eyes were cruelly gouged out, leaving only two huge holes, but from the kimono and long black hair, it can still be seen that this woman appeared in front of everyone yesterday and claimed to be responsible for the incident The representative of the Law and Politics Department——Kano Hishiri.

"Well………!"

Seeing this scene, Huahua's body trembled suddenly, and she involuntarily approached the red ponytail beside her. Although she had already learned magic, this was the first time she had actually seen a corpse with her own eyes, not to mention that the corpse's death was so miserable, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

"———"

Unlike the flowers, Fangzheng whistled.

"Look, something happened, I knew it. It's a pity that this place is not used as a reasoning murder case."

Just don't know who will play the role of Conan.

At this moment, the other magicians who were invited also came here. Seeing the scene in front of them, they were also very surprised. Except for Rosalind who was a little scared, the others seemed to be very calm.

"Heine, can you help me put her down?"

At this moment, El-Melloi II came forward and said in a low voice. Hearing what El-Melloi II said, Heine nodded, then stretched out his hand, and soon saw a strand of metal wire emerging from his fingertips, cutting off the long sword. Then Heine caught the corpse that fell from above, and put her on the ground steadily.

"excuse me."

As he spoke, El-Melloi II walked up to the corpse of Akino Hisashi, and began to quickly examine the corpse. Soon, he gave his own answer.

"It looks like the eyes were savagely gouged out by a claw-like sharp tool, and there are also large peeling marks on the back, which are probably magic seals. If you don't do this, a magician with a certain level will not die. "

Having said that, El-Melloi II seemed to have discovered something again. He stretched out his hand and picked up the envelope that fell out of the sleeve of Hano Hishiri—on the surface, it seemed that this had nothing to do with other people’s invitations. What a difference. He opened the envelope carefully, glanced at the contents inside, and then showed a surprised expression.

"Huh? She also has an angel name, wait... this is..."

Speaking of this, El-Melloi II seemed to have noticed something, and his face suddenly became much gloomy.

"Xiaohong? What's the matter?"

At this moment Huahua also came to Fangzheng's side and asked in a low voice, and Fangzheng shook his head.

"I don't know . . . well, let the famous detective start his act, and we'll just have to watch."

"But...the others seem to be very calm..."

As she spoke, Huahua looked around. Except for Heine's sister, the seven-year-old girl Rosalind, who stayed away from the murder scene because of fear, everyone else seemed to be used to it. This made Hua Hua somewhat surprised. After all, she has read mystery novels. Generally speaking, when a corpse is found on this occasion, everyone should not start shouting "Why did this happen?" "Who did it!", Getting panicked and agitated? Why do these people only feel as if they have no reaction other than to be a little serious?

"Of course, these are magicians. It's too abnormal for you to expect them to react like ordinary people. These people live in a world where they are either killed or killed every day. How could they start jumping just because a few people died? ?”

“…………………”

This time, Huahua didn't speak, she just frowned slightly, watching the scene in front of her. Perhaps it was only now that she had a more real understanding of what kind of people the magicians in this world are.

And at this moment, the famous detective El-Melloi II spoke again.

"Maybe we're all wrong."

"Wrong?"

Hearing this, the other magicians turned their heads to look at him, while El-Melloi II continued talking.

"The name of the angel is not a hint of inheritance at all, nor is it a mystery..."

"what is that?"

At this moment, the old man in the wheelchair also asked. El-Melloi II sighed as if he was about to have a stomach attack, and then continued.

"I said before that the seventy-two angels of SHEMAMPHORAE can be transformed into the twelve signs of the zodiac, but they can also be compared to the human body. The macrocosm and the microcosm usually echo each other. Speaking of this, you should all understand."

While speaking, El-Melloi II picked up the envelope in his hand, and all the magicians present showed a look of sudden realization, only Fang Zheng and Huahua still played the roles of people who didn't know the truth—— According to Fangzheng, no matter whether he used "Xiao Gao Pian Zhi" or future vision, he could easily find the murderer of the deceased, and there was no need for such boring reasoning.

Well, that's right, just like the cameras and DNA tests all over the street robbed a detective's job, Sherlock Holmes would have lived on the streets long ago in modern times.

"Hashiri's angel name is HACHASIAH, and this is the angel with Aries as the ruling house. Aries generally protects the head of the human body. In more detail..."

Having said this, El-Melloi II paused for a moment, and looked at the corpse in front of him again.

"If it is limited to HACHASIAH, it symbolizes eyeballs."

As soon as this remark came out, the atmosphere at the scene changed instantly.

"I see."

At this moment, even Hua Hua, who didn't know much about magic knowledge, understood what El-Melloi II meant. The angel name of Huaye Hishiri symbolizes eyeballs, and now her eyeballs have been gouged out. In yesterday's will announcement, there was also [Anyone who cannot answer the question must be deprived by the angel], so that is to say... ………

"Xiao Hong, could it be that the woman named Hano Hibishi also wanted to inherit the inheritance, so she answered the angel's question, but she was killed because of the wrong answer?"

"Maybe."

Fangzheng yawned out of boredom, and then looked forward with interest.

"But now there are more interesting things than reasoning, right?"

"Ugh?"

Hearing this, Huahua looked forward again, only to find that the group of magicians had already started to stir up a commotion.

"Among the people gathered in Stripping City, the only one who knows the secret technique and has no need to obtain it."

"Hahaha, in other words, the beast carefully peeled off the magic seal and gouged out the eyes, and then stringed people here? Is it so funny?"

"So, you mean, the prisoner is among us?"

To Hua Hua's surprise, even though someone put forward this theory that would almost certainly cause a commotion in the speculative novel, the magicians present did not seem to be shaken in the slightest.

"This this………"

Seeing this scene, Huahua couldn't understand it.

"Why do they react like this? Don't they worry that they will be killed?"

"Isn't that what magicians are like? Even if they can kill each other, they can definitely survive. This is what those guys think. You really think they are the unarmed NPCs in mystery novels."

Having said this, Fangzheng also grinned and laughed.

"In fact, there is no need for such an exaggerated treasure hunt. There is a way that can guarantee one hundred percent that you will find the secret method—as long as you kill all the heirs except yourself, you will be fine? The world of magicians does not talk about laws. , let alone be immoral, and it is impossible for someone to call the police. Of course, with the current level of stupidity of these guys, they will not give up and leave... It's ridiculous, ordinary mystery novels will go to great lengths to use isolated islands or heavy rain and wind Xuelai formed the secret room, but here, there is no need for external natural conditions, because this group of people will never choose to run away on their own initiative."

"Then what shall we do?"

"It's nothing to do, let's continue to watch the show. Where can I find such a good opportunity for the first-person full-view secret room murder reasoning plot?"

While talking, Fangzheng turned around.

"Okay, go back to the room and have breakfast, and then let's go to the courtyard and look at the way this group of people is now. It's not surprising when they fight. It's good to be a melon eater who doesn't know the truth, but if you get involved I'm not interested anymore."

After that, the two went back to the room to have breakfast, and then came to the garden behind the castle. Facing the lake and woods not far away, Fangzheng hummed a song and took out his notebook, and continued to start his own work. Hua Hua silently took out a copy of "The Detective Collection of Sherlock Holmes" and began to read it.

Although I am not very interested in this kind of book on weekdays, but reading this book in Holmes' hometown now, there is always a special sentiment in it.

"Hum hum………"

Humming came from next to her ears, Huahua raised her head unconsciously, and looked at the girl with red ponytail who was sitting beside her and typing on the computer.

What a strange girl.

Speaking of which, Huahua knew almost nothing about the girl in front of her. She also heard from her teacher, Fiore, "When you meet at the airport, a girl named Red Ponytail will come to you." As for the red ponytail Who it was, Fiore didn't say directly. But judging from what Huahua has observed so far, she obviously has a lot to do with Thousand Boundary Tree.

According to the peers along the way, apart from the rude behavior of the red ponytail, which looks like a boy, other places are surprisingly easy to get along with. And even though she didn't say it clearly, Hua Hua also knew that the other party had always taken good care of her.

More importantly, for some reason, every time Huahua saw her side face, Huahua would feel an inexplicable throbbing deep in her heart.

It was as if an electric current passed through his body, or his heart was held tightly by something, even if he was only occasionally swept by the bright red twin tails, it would make him tense.

This is how it happened?

"Sorry to interrupt."

At this time, suddenly, a voice sounded, interrupting Huahua's thoughts. She raised her head and saw a girl with golden curly hair and wearing a blue dress standing not far away, watching them. I remember this girl's name seems to be Luvia...

"Yo, isn't this a gold drill bit? What do you want us to do?"

Fangzheng raised his head from the notebook, glanced at the blond girl, and greeted her with a smile.

"Golden diamond..."

Hearing Fang Zheng's greeting, Luvia frowned instantly, but perhaps it was because of her long-standing good family education that she barely suppressed her inner emotions.

"My name is Luvia Zelita Edelfelt, please remember this name, Miss Red Ponytail."

"I see, Gold Drill."

"Luvia!"

"Okay, Gold Drill, so what do you want me to do?"

"........."

After staring fiercely at the girl with red ponytail in front of her for a while, Luvia seemed to finally give up and chose to change the subject helplessly.

"I'm here to ask you two, where were you two after dinner last night?"

"Do an alibi? Does it make sense? Even if I say I killed you, what can you do to me? Do you rush to fight? Or go to the police?"

"...and please answer my question."

Although she remained calm on the surface, even the flowers could tell that Luvia's patience was almost exhausted.

"Well, last night after dinner, I was in the room working on a project proposal, while Huahua was reading a book. By the way, this dilapidated place is really old and backward. There is not even a cable TV. I want to watch the evening news. Not on..."

"Sorry to interrupt."

Before the red ponytail could finish speaking, the golden drill... No, Luvia interrupted her complaints neatly, then turned and left. And the red ponytail glanced at Luvia's retreating back, then picked up the teacup, and took a sip of tea leisurely.

"Xiao Hong, you are too rude to Miss Luvia."

Although I also thought it was ridiculous, Huahua couldn't help coughing at this time, as a reminder.

"Is there any way? Who asked her to comb her hair into that ghostly look? If she didn't comb her hair into a drill, I wouldn't call it a drill. Besides, what's wrong with a drill? It's a man's romance."

Sure enough, the red ponytail didn't mean to be obedient at all, she just waved her hand with a smile, and then she looked to the other side again.

"Then, why are these two people here looking for us? Maybe it's also to investigate the alibi."

Hearing this, Huahua hurriedly turned her head and looked in the direction where the red ponytail was staring. Soon, she saw a pair of brother and sister coming out of the corridor on the other side.

Those are the brothers and sisters Heine Istari and Rosalind Istari.
