Chapter 136 The first and final puzzle (3)
Lu Yuan didn't know if everyone's mind was buzzing, but he grew up in surprise.
"Damn? There is also this kind of reversal?"
Sato Takeshi's retelling continues
"At that moment, the master's figure flashed by. No one should have noticed him. Of course, he should have not noticed that I witnessed him in the attic.
After that, the servants of the Sato family were replaced more than half. Once, the master asked me, where was I when the little master died?
That was the only time I lied to the master in my life. I said, I was in the kitchen at that time.
In this way, this matter was hidden in my heart for thirty years. In fact, I originally thought that I could carry this memory until the coffin, but "
"But Ichiro Sato's death makes you feel that this matter cannot be hidden anymore, right?" Lu Yuan said: "After all, your master died of a murder, which is exactly in line with the content of the letter. In this way, you actually believe that Shuichi Sato's resentment is real, and you have known for a long time that one of those ways of death must be left for Ichiro Sato, right ~"
"No!! I don't believe that the master would do anything terrible to the little master. That day, it was definitely an accident that happened when the master was playing with the little master. The master always liked the little master, so"
"So do you believe in the [Soul Submission] thing?" Lu Yuan interrupted Takeru Sato's words
"I" Uncle Ken Sato, who has always been capable and confident, was unable to answer this question at this time.
"What I saw with my own eyes conflicted with the deacon rules I had always believed in, so you don't know what you should believe, right?" Lu Yuan said as if he was fine.
Sato Take a deep breath: "Okay, anyway, everything is over now. No matter what I saw or what the little master's resentment really did, it has passed. This is the best ending, so please leave and let the master rest in peace. Tomorrow morning, there will be a boat carrying you away."
But before he could say anything.
"No! You can't just finish it!" Officer Meguri suddenly said, "Where are those dead? What should they do?"
"Didn't you say that these are all caused by the little master's wronged soul. Of course, if you don't believe this statement, you can also give a reasonable explanation. Or you can try to solve the mystery of the little master's letter first. But even if you solve it, so what? The master is dead. Do you still want to cure his sin?"
"This" Megu also hesitated for a moment.
At this time, "No!" Conan shouted, and he was still lying in Xiaolan's arms: "What's all about soul-subduing is nonsense."
This voice also brought Maori's words up.
"Yes, everything that happened later was all about killing between people, and Ichiro Sato's death must have been done by humans!"
"Oh?" Sato Ken's attitude seemed to change, and he replied: "So, who would have killed it? All the servants of our Sato family have been strictly adjusted and screened. They cannot have any hostility to the head of the family. At this time, the only outsider on this island is you!"
"Uh" At this moment, Maori and others were slightly stunned.
"So, what you mean is, is the murderer between you?" Sato Ken said with a frown.
"It's not possible, we have no reason to kill him." Maori said awkwardly, and then he suddenly thought of something, then turned to look at Lu Yuan and Lu Li beside him.
This is a very simple way to eliminate the situation. The people from the Sato family will not kill anyone, and Maori, Meguri, Xiaolan and Conan will not kill anyone. The remaining tourists are all dead. Then, the only ones left are Lu Yuan and Lu Li.
Lu Yuan looked at him with suspicious eyes.
He chuckled softly: "Ha, what are you doing? Do you doubt me?"
Memu walked up and said, "Mr. Lu Yuan, where were you at the time of the incident?"
"I'm in the banquet hall. Lu Li is here too. Takeshi Sato can testify." Lu Yuan replied directly: "At around 6 o'clock, we met Mr. Ichiro Sato, and after that, it only took more than an hour until the banquet began. During this period, my sister and I had no time to commit the crime. Moreover, looking at the injuries on Ichiro Sato and his bloodshed should not be done in a short time, so instead of suspecting that the murderer is me, it is better to suspect that the murderer is among you."
This time, Maori and others were speechless.
"This" Maori scratched his head.
"I understand! If it weren't for us or Lu Yuan, then the murderer would be you!" He shouted and pointed at Takeru Sato suddenly.
"You are the housekeeper of the Sato family, so you must have plenty of time to create a secret room or to think about the killing method. Just an hour ago, you sent out all the servants and then killed Ichiro Sato. The letter and the so-called [Soul Surrender] were all your work. As for your motive for killing Sato, it was that you witnessed the death of Sato, so your master always held a grudge!"
Maori yelled righteously, and I have to say that he was quite imposing.
but
"Well, Brother Maori, he was always in the banquet hall when the incident happened." Megu reminded a little awkwardly.
"Ah?" Maori was also stunned.
"Also, since he is the housekeeper of the Sato family, he has the chance to kill Ichiro Sato, why do you have to hurry at this time? Besides, if he just wants to avenge his little master, then killing Ichiro Sato alone is enough. Why did he still forge that letter? Our guests have nothing to do with Shuichi's death."
This series of soul-searching questions also made Maori confused.
Sato's expression is extremely cold
"Enough!" he shouted, and then stopped obeying Maori and others, picked up Ichiro Sato's clothes, gently covered his body, and closed his eyes with his hands.
"I don't care what you think about this series of things, but the master's body cannot always be like this. Moreover, the things that follow Sato Group cannot be delayed. There are wills, funerals, and the economy of the entire country may change because of the death of the head of the family. These things cannot be delayed. This is what the master told me personally after he was diagnosed with cancer."
Sato Ken said, then he didn't even look at the others: "I'll ask for the last time now, do you still think that all this is done by humans?"
"Of course!" everyone said in unison.
"So do you think the murderer must be among you?"
"Yes!" everyone said again.
Sato Ken nodded.
"Okay, since you all think the murderer is among you, but you can't find the murderer, then you can all be buried with the master."
He said lightly, then took the collar and covered Sato Ichiro's bloodless face.
Get up and walk out of the room.
Only a confused person was left.
Chapter completed!
