[Comprehensive] Live broadcast of the crime scene

The red curtains on both sides of the stage in the auditorium lead to the backstage. There is a side door in the backstage room. The performers need to go around the backstage side door to the auditorium entrance and return to the auditorium. At this time, Mo Xian felt that there was only three people in front of the backstage side door. The side-by-side stone paths are waiting quietly by the street lights.

People come in and out of the backstage side door from time to time. This stone path is the place they must pass through. Mo Xian makes way for the green lawn outside the path, watching the side door absently playing with the hem of his school uniform, the street lamps are shining down, and the hem of the dress and The fingers were all dyed with a faint orange light.

"Atobe-kun," she didn't wait long, and her eyes lit up when she saw the person coming. At this time, Atobe had changed into a khaki school uniform, with his hands in the brown school uniform trouser pockets, and a white shirt was loosely tied with a red tie. The shirt was only buttoned from the third button, revealing a clean and slender neck and a bit of collarbone. He was talking to the tennis team players behind him while walking. "Huh? Mosang?"

A group of people stopped on the stone road and blocked the road tightly. Seeing this, Atobe said, "Let's talk about something as we walk, Mosang?"

Mo Xian nodded and followed, Atobe slowed down her steps to make it easier for her to follow, while a boy with black and bluish shoulder-length hair who was walking side by side with Atobe was a step behind and walked with another boy with a younger sister .

"...So, I want to go to that abandoned small building," Mo Xian quickly explained the cause and effect through one after another street lamps. Atobe's father is a member of the school board, and he is also a member of the student union. Long, maybe the police will let him in. If he can't do it, I can only ask my sister. But to be honest, she lists this option as the last option, after all, it's not about her. It's not good for Mao Mao to ask my sister to inquire about the case, "But there are two police officers guarding the door, so I can't get in."

Atobe showed a knowing smile with a little pride and a little complacency.

"Sorry to bother you," the shoulder-length-haired boy wearing the same school uniform who was walking behind them heard Mo Xian's words, and his tone was a little strange, "You mean, you saw someone killed in the secret room today, and you still Want to go inside and have a look?” His accent is a typical Osaka accent, and his voice belongs to the bass line, and Mo Xian, who is used to the Tokyo accent, was half a beat too late to react, “Is... ah...?”

"It's amazing!" His tone became more and more strange, "Ah, by the way, I'm Yushi Ninzu, please give me your advice when we meet for the first time."

Mo Xian glanced sideways at the eye mark department—even though she didn't know why she reflexively observed his micro-expressions, probably because she wanted something from others? ——Smiled and said, "Thank you, my name is Mo Xian, in fact, I am only because of this Iwai-kun..." As if thinking of something, the corners of her lips slipped down, and her voice tightened, "Well, his death It's really important to me."

"I'll take you there," Atobe's voice suddenly sounded, interrupting her memory.

"Atobe!" Hearing his words, the younger boy protested, "We made an appointment to have a barbecue with Aigaku after the school festival."

"It won't be too long," Atobe glanced at the watch on his wrist, "There is still an hour for the show to end, that's enough."

The members of the tennis club stopped talking, and they walked the path silently. At the end of the path, other members of the tennis club said "We will wait for you at the reserved seat" and walked into the auditorium, but it was the Osaka-accented Shinobu Yushi stayed where he was, "Hey, I want to see it too."

"As you wish," Atobe took the lead and walked forward.

They walked through the central garden in the orange and white light of the lights, passed the lit teaching building, and set foot on the road leading to the abandoned small building. Along the way, Mo Xian explained the case to the two, and the Atobu added some things from time to time. The details made Ren Zuzu, who had no clue about the inside story, relax. When they saw the small building with orange lights in the middle of the lawn, Ren Zuzu, an outsider, basically understood the case, and even put forward his own understanding.

"You mean," his voice was too low no matter what he heard, and Mo Xian had to concentrate to understand his words, "The police once thought that Mr. Iwai was the mastermind behind the Mizuno case? Is that so, Will he be killed for this reason?"

"More than that," on the way to the small red brick building, probably because Shinozu and Atobe are both students of the same grade, Mo Xian talked about his discovery today without any pressure, "Iwai-san in the afternoon—that is, Iwai When Jun's cousin heard the news of his death, apart from being sad, I noticed that she was still afraid, and both of them have something to do with it, so it must be Mizuno's case."

Walking to the entrance of the small building, Atobu said something to the two police officers and let the three of them in, making Mo Xian almost doubt his eyes, but there was a police officer following behind to prevent them from making trouble, Of course she doesn't care, in fact, entering the crime scene has made Mo Xian very satisfied.

The second floor of the small building was exactly the same as the one she saw this afternoon. Walking through the corridor under the orange light bulb, Mo Xian went straight to the room at the corner of the corridor. There were two small orange and red light bulbs in the peephole of the door, corresponding to the inside of the door. The orange red button, so that the staff can find out in time and come to help, she pushed the door, and it was locked.

The police officer who followed the three stepped forward and took out the lock. After the door opened, Mo Xian pressed the light switch next to the door, and the orange light on the ceiling lit up. In the room, except for the gray sofa covered with a transparent plastic bag and the heavy The wooden tables and chairs, and other things had been taken away by the police, and the room was empty. She took out the gloves and the flashlight she had prepared from her pocket, and with a snap, the flashlight shot out a white light.

"It's really well prepared," Ren Zu couldn't help complaining.

Mo Xian smiled proudly, and walked into the room, Atobe and Renzu stood obediently outside the door, leaning against the door frame to see what she was doing.

Mo Xian pulled the door halfway and pressed the red and orange buttons on the back of the door. Sure enough, the two light bulbs in the cat's eye flashed red and orange light. These two reminder lights were intact. She touched her chin and fell into a state of contemplation. In the middle, Atobe stared at the two light bulbs, as if he had never seen such a simple light bulb, and reached out to touch them, then took out a tissue to wipe off the dust on his fingertips in disgust, "Did you find anything?"

"Well," Mo Xian pulled the door open, "Do you still remember what I told you just now? If you are trapped in the secret room, press the red button, and the staff will come with the key to open the door, otherwise you have to wait until you find the clues It can only be opened, but there is no record of borrowing the key in the notebook of the person guarding the key. Therefore, the police always think that this is a murder case in a secret room, and the murder method may be hidden in a corner of the room. For this reason, they took everything in this secret room away."

Speaking of this, she emphasized, "However, we overlooked one thing, which is so conspicuous, but because of our preconceived notions, we didn't consider it at all." Suddenly, Mo Xian didn't want to reveal the truth so quickly, let them experience the joy of thinking, thinking so, she turned and walked into the bathroom in the room to check the traces inside.

"I see," Atobe was the first to say within 2 minutes, "Actually, you have already reminded us, right? There are two ways to get out of the secret room. One is to find the clues yourself, and the other is to turn on the lights and wait for the staff. If the second one is denied, then only the first one will be the only one," he said with his arms crossed, his legs crossed against the door frame, and he found his most comfortable standing position, "Because Iwai-kun died in the room, so We thought that he had never been out, and since he hadn't, the first rule was also invalid. However, Iwai-kun might crack the code by himself, open the door, be killed by the murderer waiting at the door, throw him into the secret room, and close the door, so that Once this happens, it can create the illusion that the murderer is killing people in the secret room."

"So that's how it is," Shinozu also suddenly realized, nodding and teasing, "Hey, Atobe, with your insight, even if you don't play tennis and become a policeman, you can support yourself. Maybe you can become a policeman in Tokyo with Mosang." A character who is feared by criminals."

"Ben...if I were a policeman," Atobe laughed softly when he heard Shinozu say this, "how could I be able to support myself."

Yes, in the dark bathroom, Mo Xian with the flashlight on sighed, even if he had his own advice, he could quickly find out the problems that the other two couldn't figure out, and his observation and analysis skills were really outstanding. At that time, Mo Xian could really understand Mr. Holmes' mood.

On the one hand, I want to make it difficult for him, and I don't want him to come to a conclusion so quickly. On the other hand, I want to see how far he can extrapolate.

"That's why I always check it out for myself," Mo Xian walked out of the bathroom without finding anything, and pointed to the two light bulbs on the door that were turned off, "I want to confirm whether the light bulb on the door is intact."

"That's right," Atobe quickly followed her train of thought, knocking on the door frame and said, "If the light bulb is intact, then the staff should be able to see the light of the light bulb and pick up the key in time, which means, There are staff guarding this floor, here comes the problem, since someone is observing whether the light bulb is on or off, and Iwai-kun opened the door and was killed, he should be able to see it too, so..."

"Either the staff member killed it," Mo Xian continued, "either the staff member was transferred by the murderer, or the staff member may be the murderer's accomplice. In short, no matter what the possibility is, the staff member It's all suspicious."

Renzu, who was watching them talking, said: With my IQ, I can't get in the conversation.

"Do you remember what that staff member looked like?" Atobe straightened up and asked Mo Xian, she could almost smell the faint scent of roses, "I asked their names, and I still have a little impression."

Mo Xian closed his eyes and recalled the situation this afternoon. Although it happened "this afternoon", because the week he solved the case with Mao Li was counted as "a week ago", it was correct. However, even though it happened "a week ago", Mo Xian still recalled that person's appearance, "It's a girl with short hair and a baby face, hey, why do I think she looks familiar."

"It's Koizumi Aiko," Atobe gave a positive name.
