Eighth Crown

Chapter 4 A State of Mind with Twists and Turns

The air in the room froze again.

If the previous two ceremonies were a little caught off guard because of Liu Xia's sudden arrival, then now her mind is really only thinking about how to use the most effective method to dismember him.

Even if she doesn't care about her own life, she can't just sit back and watch everyone in the Liangyi House die in the explosion, including her parents and elder brother, as well as the servants who served her since she was a child, adding up to dozens of lives.

After all, she is only a 16-year-old girl, no matter how indifferent she is, she is not an emotionless monster like Liu Xia, and she cannot ignore the safety of her family.

"Don't doubt whether my words are feasible. I have enough bomb reserves to blow up Liangyi's mansion three times."

Liu Xia's last words dispelled the last trace of doubt in the hearts of the two ceremonies.

Because he was defeated by the opponent once, and showed his superb stealth skills in the process of appearing in his room without anyone noticing, the two ceremonies really couldn't be sure whether his words were false or not.

But she can't gamble.

Once there is a slight possibility, her family may really be blown to the sky.

"..."

Silently, the two rituals raised their hands.

The sleeves of the white bathrobe slipped off naturally, revealing the white and tender arms without the slightest blemish.

It is extremely smooth and clean, looks very slender, without showing a single muscle, it is hard to imagine that she has the physical ability that even a strong athlete would be willing to bow down to.

While Liu Xia was observing her arm, the two rituals were also moving their steps quietly.

Under her bed sheet was a dagger that she usually played with. In fact, she was used to keeping it close to her body, because she had only put it in the room before taking a shower.

She is not the kind of cowardly character who chooses to let go and wait for death in the face of a crisis. She will never swallow it if she suffers a loss. As long as there is a chance, she will immediately seize it and launch a vigorous counterattack.

The last time [Shiki] was hesitant when he saw the appearance of the opponent's child, which led to his defeat.

This time, as long as she made up her mind from the very beginning to cut off his throat with the blade and stab the tip of the knife into his heart, there is still the possibility of turning the situation around.

"Enough is enough, let it go."

However, before the two ceremonies moved to the side of the bed and got the dagger in their hands, Liu Xia on the other side shook his head as if he finally got the answer.

"You really are not [Serial Killer]."

Just such a sentence made the original idea of ​​the two rituals stagnate, and the pace of moving also became stagnant because of this.

"……What did you say?"

Liang Ri turned around and looked directly at Liu Xia, with incomprehensible emotions surging in his eyes, "Why do you know about this... No, why can you confirm that I am not a serial killer? Explain to me in detail !"

It seems to have poked a point that the girl cares about very much.

She unexpectedly cared about the [Serial Killer] thing.

"Even if you don't say it, I plan to explain it to you."

Liu Xia didn't care about the slightly aggressive tone of the two ceremonies, but looked up and down at the obviously strange reaction of the other party, narrowing her eyes slightly.

Then he reversed his previous attitude of not intending to talk nonsense at all, and even took the initiative to explain to the two rituals.

"The policeman in charge of investigating serial murders is called Daisuke Akimi. I used some tricks to get key evidence from him."

As for what kind of method it is, there is no need to explain it in words. What he is doing to the two ceremonies now is what he once did to Akimi Daisuke.

"During the autopsy of the fourth and fifth crimes, that is, the corpses of the couple who died three days ago,

In the crevices of the dead man's nails, the remnants of a third party's skin and flesh tissue were found, and it was confirmed that the dead man had had a dispute with the murderer, and a piece of flesh was pinched off the murderer's arm. "

"It has not been more than three days. The injury on the murderer's arm should not have recovered. Your arm is smooth, so I judge that you are not the murderer."

That's why, when Liuxia sneaked into Guanfuzi Academy this morning, she made a somewhat impolite request to Hei Tongganya to 'check his arm'.

In fact, he also had some doubts that the murderer was Heitong Kanya, but after seeing that there was no injury on his arm, he dispelled this doubt.

"The murderer has wounds on his arm..."

Liang Yi looked down at his arms that were so smooth that he couldn't see the slightest wound, and there was a lot of disbelief in his eyes, "Could it be that the murderer really wasn't [me]...?"

Seeing all her reactions, Liu Xia frowned slightly.

What do you say, "Isn't the murderer me", don't you know if you are the murderer?

"The murderer is indeed not you."

Keeping her strange reaction in mind as a suspicious point, Liu Xia nodded, because there was no injury on her arm, the possibility of the two rituals being the murderer is not high... But even so, Liu Xia still did not fully trust her.

——Not the current her, but the other [two rituals] that appeared during the five minutes of disappearance last night.

"However, even if the murderer is not you, he must be inextricably linked with you."

Liu Xia hid the suspicion and distrust in her heart very well, and still maintained his iconic expression on his face without the slightest ups and downs.

"At the scene of the crime, the pattern of 'Tai Chi' was left with blood, and the body was dismembered and arranged in the shape of 'Swastika'. According to my private information network, I also got clues that the murderer was a person related to the underworld. You are very coincidental every time. Appearing at the scene of a crime...it's hard for people not to suspect you."

It was because of getting so much information that Liu Xia thought that the two rituals were the real body of the serial killer, and that she was the murderer, so she secretly attacked and killed her last night.

Originally, he was 100% sure to kill her, but he was blocked by the [Two Ceremonies] that appeared later, so that she survived.

Then, after getting the key evidence of "wounds on the arm" from Akimi Daisuke this morning, Liu Xia conducted a second investigation on the real body of the serial killer, and finally came to such a result.

"If the real body of the serial killer is not you, then it must be the people around you, and they must be people who know your behavior habits and behavior style very well, otherwise it would be impossible to make so many 'coincidences' with ulterior motives , to frame you."

Lucia made a judgment.

"So I need to understand all the relationships around you, and I also need to borrow the power of the Liangyi family in the underworld, so that I can find the murderer."

If it wasn't for this reason, with Liuxia's credo of 'practical first, don't do anything superfluous', it would be impossible to say such a lot of unnecessary nonsense.

In fact, even without relying on the power of the Liangyi family, Liu Xia is sure to find the real serial killer, but in terms of efficiency, it is more efficient to use the power of the Liangyi family when it is confirmed that the real criminal is involved in the underworld. , and once too much time is spent, the wound on the murderer's arm may heal, and it will take more effort to find it again.

As long as the task can be effectively and effectively completed, no matter what means are used and resorted to, Liu Xia will not care.

In his mind, profit is the first and efficiency is the second.

"I see, I understand what you're thinking."

The two ceremonies recovered from their ups and downs, as if they had solved a problem that had plagued them for a long time, they felt in a rare good mood, and their hostility towards Liu Xia was slightly relaxed.

"So, planting bombs around my house is how you seek cooperation?"

It is true that thanks to Liu Xia, the haze suspended in her heart was finally dispelled, but the two ceremonies still do not plan to cooperate with Liu Xia, and what he has done is really hard to give people a good impression.

"That was a lie to you."

Liu Xia's face did not change and she gave the answer that stunned the two ceremonies, "If you think about it carefully, you will know, how can I carry a bomb that can blow up a mansion into the sky? And, look at what is on my body Looks like it hid a detonator?"

The two ceremonies sparked a little fire.

But before she got angry, Liu Xia made another declaration that made her even more angry.

"However, this is not the reason why you don't agree. If you don't agree, I will spread the news that 'you are the real body of a serial killer' right now. Now that this incident is full of troubles, even Liangyi It's hard to keep you at home, right? Even if we can keep you, we have to pay a huge price..."

Liu Xia made a second threat without changing her expression.

The chests of the two ceremonies rose and fell.

She felt that today she really experienced what is called a state of mind with twists and turns.

The next moment, the girl rushed towards Liu Xia like an agile cheetah, held the short knife hidden under the bed sheet in her hand, and stabbed straight at Liu Xia's chest with lightning speed.
