I want a hamburger. I'd like fried shrimp over rice. I want an omelet. I want sirloin steak. Of course Zhumi was the last to order, because she always pursues the most expensive principle.Of course, only when others pay for it. On such occasions, Guoyou is of course the one who pays for it, and he is very clear about how much money he has in his wallet, but Guoyou will still say: order whatever you like, you are welcome. Fortunately, this is just a very ordinary family western restaurant, and the most expensive steak Guoyou can afford it.After Guoyou quickly calculated the approximate budget in his mind, he relaxed somewhat.

Jumi!Yuriko, who ordered fried shrimp rice bowl, said, don't order such expensive things. Ah, it's okay, it's not too expensive.Guoyou pretended to be calm and said. Tomorrow tomorrow, the cultural festival will open.Ayako spoke awkward words. Just say the day after tomorrow?Tamami said to Ayako sister while handing back the menu to the waiter. I hope that the Cultural Energy Conservation will be concluded smoothly and satisfactorily.Xilizi said, of course, it would be even better if the incidents that happened in the past two days can also be resolved. To be honest, this one is more difficult.Guoyou shook his head and said, because we don't have an overall grasp of this series of cases.

However, is it just the murder of Kuroki and the murder of Professor Lishan's wife? Xi Lizi, you also forgot one very important thing. What's up? Three years ago, Ishihara Shigeko was raped by Kamiyama Taka. Ayako said in a rare and strong tone: I can't forgive such a person when I take advantage of others' danger! This incident is likely to be the beginning of this series of cases.Guoyou said affirmatively that the problem lies in the connection between Heimu's murder and the incident three years ago. What if by chance? No, Ota and Ishihara Shikoko are lovers, so Ota came to Moko's university job, it can't be said to be accidental.There is only one accidental thing, that is, Kamiyamada Takara comes to Ayako's university to hold a concert.And nothing else happened by chance.

If this is the case, then why Kuroki was killed, the first person who should be killed is Kami Yamada Taka. Even the worst villains can be punished in the end.Zhumi said, besides, wasn't Kuroki also involved in the incident three years ago? Yes, because Moko said there were three people at the time.Xilizi said, ah!correct!She seemed to suddenly remember something. What's wrong? There were three people at that time, Kamiyama Taka, Kuroki, and another person. yes. Maybe another person had something to do with these events. But Moko Ishihara said she couldn't remember the other person.

Moko couldn't remember clearly, but the other party didn't necessarily forget. Yes, it is true. Guoyou thought for a while, okay, it seems that it is necessary to ask Kami Yamada Gao, he should remember the other person at that time. However, maybe Kuroki's murder case has nothing to do with Ishihara Shigeko.Jumi said. There is such a possibility, and Kuroki's wife has an affair with Kami Yamada Taka. But there is still a doubt, why did the murderer kill Kuroki in the university auditorium?Guoyou said that if he wanted to kill Heimu for personal reasons, there was no need to do it in the university.

Even a weak woman can do it by throwing a hammer at someone.Xi Lizi inferred. etc!Zhumi seemed to be inspired by Yuriko, climbed to the ceiling of the auditorium, and then threw dumbbells to kill people. If someone who has nothing to do with this university probably would not have thought of such a way. That's true.Xilizi said, your reasoning is very valuable. How much is that? If he didn't love money so much, he would have been a pretty good kid. The me without desire is not me anymore.Jumi said, ah, here comes the soup. The waiter brought everyone a bowl of soup, and everyone immediately fell silent, bowing their heads and starting to drink the soup.

That is to say, Guoyou wiped his mouth with a napkin and said: The murderer is someone from the university. If this is the case, then the person with the motive of killing Heimu Ishihara Shigeko and Ota are still more suspected.Xi Lizi said. What about the bombing? What bombing?Ah, the time the door was blown up.Ayako said. It was originally aimed at my sister, but my sister still didn't believe it. Is it aimed at me, hasn't the investigation been clear yet?Besides, there is no reason against me. Xilizi decided not to debate this issue with her sister anymore, because she knew that it was useless to say anything.So I changed the subject, oh, yes, there is something I forgot to say.

What's up? Last time I went to Professor Lishan's office, I found a strange book on his shelf. weird bookwhat book? Yes, the title of the book is The Principle of Gunpowder. The principle of gunpowder?interesting.Guoyou said. You said the bomb was made by Professor Lishan?Ayako said. Sister, don't talk.When Yuriko said this, Ayako pursed her lips and stopped talking, and lowered her head to drink the soup, but the soup was very hot, so she could only sit there blankly. By the way, there is one more thing.Xilizi said that when she went to Professor Lishan's office that day, someone ran down the stairs and bumped Ayako's sister.

oh. Of course, it doesn't have to be from Professor Lishan's office, but we can't rule out any possibility. What kind of person is that? It's a woman in a coat. Where is the face? I didn't see it clearly at all, leaving only an impression of wearing a coat. Um.Kunitomo nodded. At that time, the girl named Kazuko Otsu must have been sitting on Professor Lishan's lap. Yes, if that person was peeking into Prof. Lishan's office and got irritated by what he saw Yes, maybe he turned around and ran after being stimulated. But who could this person be?Xi Lizi shook his head and said.

I don't know, Kyoko Mizuguchi? How can it be?Ayako said, if it was her, would we still not be able to recognize her? Let's not talk about this.Guoyou said, in short, Otsu Kazuko has a close relationship with this matter. Aren't you looking for Kazuko Otsu?did you find it?Zhumi asked. She couldn't find it, and she never returned to her residence. Does she live alone? No, two people live together, and there is a female roommate.According to her female roommate, Otsu Kazuko can't live at home for a few days in a year. Definitely messing around outside.Jumi said with great emotion, ah, it must be the naked woman we saw in the hotel corridor last time.

Jumi!Ayako's face turned red, you can say such vulgar words! Sister, you are too rigid.Jumi snapped back. Shut up!Xi Lizi pulled her face to stop the sisters from arguing. Anyway, Kazuko Otsu probably knew something. So, she is also in danger. Xi Lizi, can't you think of a better place?Ayako said that Mrs. Lishan was killed next, and this case seemed to be related to Moko and Ota. Yes, but what we know about this matter is limited to Moko's own statement.Xi Lizi finally finished the soup in the bowl. Moko is not a liar.Ayako said emphatically, because I know her very well. Anyway, it is an objective fact that Moko was at the scene of Mrs. Lishan's murder. And Ota hanged himself. She is not that kind of person.Ayako said. What's the meaning?Xilizi asked. Why? You just said she wasn't that kind of person Ah, I mean Moko doesn't kill people. That topic has passed, and we are now talking about Ota's suicide. Yeah?Ayako said. However, Xi Lizi seemed to suddenly understand something.Not that kind of person Um, right. If Mrs. Lishan was really killed by Ota, would Ota let Moko take the blame for him and run away alone?Ota is not like that. And, if you want to hang yourself, why not do it sooner?Ayako rushed to the school after receiving a call from Moko, opened the gate and went in, and then went to the student union meeting room to meet Moko, Moko led her in to see Mrs. Lishan's body, called the police and waited for the police car to arrive, then Xi Lizi and Kunitomo went to the duty room to find Ota.It's been a long time. Ota hanged himself at this time and was rescued. Of course, Ota's rescue is a good thing in itself, or it may be that Ota deliberately wanted people to find out and save himself.Of course, if that's the case, it's a big risk. If it was not Ota who hanged himself, but someone deliberately created the illusion of suicide and hung Ota there, it is not impossible.Fortunately, Guoyou and I arrived in time and saved Ota's life. It seems more reasonable to think so. Because, in Xi Lizi's heart, she couldn't understand that Ota would commit suicide, so she was more inclined to the second reasoning. Sister, what's the matter with you?Zhu Mei said that the food was cold. I don't know when the waiter has already served the fried shrimp bowl.Hearing Zhumei's reminder, Xilizi came back to her senses. Whether there is a connection between the murder of Mrs. Lishan and the murder of Kuroki is a big question.Guoyou said while cutting a hamburger. The only ones who can connect the two cases now are Ishihara Shigeko and Ota.Xi Lizi said. Yes, I don't want to suspect them either, but their suspicions are too superficial. Clang!It's finally here.Jumi said. Jumi, you shouldn't be so excited when the steak comes.Xi Lizi frowned and said. Sorry, you said it wrong this time, I didn't mean steak. So what's on the scene? It was an attempted murder case against Ayako's sister. You seem to be looking forward to it. My sister still didn't believe it.Jumi said in a mocking tone. what!Ayako said angrily that there must be a misunderstanding. Yep.Xi Lizi is like coaxing a child, my sister eats this omelet. Baby weaning food.Jumi said.Ayako held back her anger, bowed her head and stopped talking. From then on, the four of them were silent for a long time. Of course, they were all concentrating on eating their own food. Thank you for the treat!Xi Lizi said. Ah, it's nothing, don't be shy.At the checkout counter, Guoyou took out money from his wallet while calculating how much he should spend every day from tomorrow until the next payday. There is a parking lot outside the hotel.Since almost everyone has a car, the parking area is quite large.At this time, the night was already dark, and both the restaurant and the parking lot were full. Ayako was the first to walk out of the hotel, because she wanted to feel the cold air outside and clear her mind, the room was really hot Xi Lizi accompanies Guoyou to the cashier to pay the bill, while Zhumei is struggling with the waiter to get a free coffee coupon. Walking out of the hotel, Ayako took a breath of the cool, fresh air outside, and she hadn't felt such a refreshing pleasure for a long time. Ah, how could this be?How come we encounter so many strange things.It must have been arranged by the goddess of fate. The main reason is that there is a younger sister like Xi Lizi who always likes to be in danger.But that child is already eighteen years old, and he will start a short-term college next year.Knowing about murders and corpses all day long, when will it be big?However, as long as I interact with Guoyou for one day, I am afraid this situation will continue. In the final analysis, Ayako was doing self-reflection because of me being a big sister.That's why the second sister, Xi Lizi, became as strong as she is now.Speaking of Jumi, although she did not win the Nobel Prize for Literature, she also loves reading, but only limited to bank books. If I'm a little more confident, thinking about Ayako's mood is getting worse and worse.Maybe everything would be fine without me Thinking wildly by herself, Ayako felt very sad.However, people of this type do not suffer from neurasthenia. ah!Ayako called out. A puppy was sitting not far away, looking up at Ayako. What's wrong?Ayako walked slowly towards the puppy.The puppy seemed a little scared, backing up bit by bit, Ayako squatted down and stretched out her hand, don't be afraid, puppy, I won't hurt you.Hearing such a gentle voice, the puppy seemed to feel relieved and wagged its tail. Are you alone too?Me too.Although I have two younger sisters, they seem to live in a different world from me Ayako stroked the puppy's head and neck, and the puppy snorted twice, then put its face against Ayako's lap and rubbed it back and forth. So cute Ayako is smiling and looking at the puppy. One side of the parking lot is the entrance, and the opposite side is the exit.Now, no cars come in. However, from the exit, a car with its headlights turned off quietly drove in. If only I were a puppy.Ayako said to herself, in that case, she would not be involved in any murders. Indeed it is.But now, even turning into a puppy may not be able to escape the danger. The sound of the car's engine booming made Ayako raise her head. Snapped!The car lights turned on all of a sudden, shining on Ayako, the car accelerated suddenly, like a monster with teeth and claws, it rushed towards Ayako. ah!Danger!Ayako stretched out her arms and picked up the puppy, then rolled to the side on its head.The car whistled past Ayako with the whistling sound of the wind. sister!Xi Lizi rushed out of the restaurant. Ayako!Guoyou didn't have time to put the money back into his pocket, so he ran out with the wallet. After Zhumi took the change, she also ran out. Are you injured?How about it?Xi Lizi helped her sister who was lying on the ground up, Ayako's body was trembling, but she still held the puppy tightly in her arms. What kind of car is it? did you see it? No, it's too dark. It's best if nothing happens to people.Guoyou breathed a sigh of relief.Because Xi Lizi once said that he should protect sister Ayako. However, this is by no means a simple accident.Xi Lizi said. of course.Ayako nodded vigorously, it was obviously on purpose! You finally understand? Well, that's right.Ayako stood up and said that the car was going to kill the puppy.
