Reasoning Notes

Chapter 132 Reasoning Notes 3: Death Note Reappearance (43)
"Of course," he raised his eyebrows in a high-spirited manner, "I've already arranged the fifth reasoning puzzle. Today is L's death day!"

"You want to kill L?" Joker, who has always been ruthless, seemed to be slightly surprised by this sentence, and his tone was anxious for the first time, "Block A, I don't allow you to kill L, L is what I use to catch Death Lyu gram's bait."

"What does it matter?" A thick evil smile tugged from the corner of his mouth, "I'll get rid of the god of death Ryuk anyway, it doesn't matter if L exists or not, doesn't it?"

"You are too arrogant!" Joker expressed his dissatisfaction in a low voice.

"Maybe," he laughed, "but I can't swallow that."

After speaking, he stretched out his hand and pressed the button. The call ended and the computer screen went black.He walked out, and the room fell into a long dead silence again.

The last part of the memory, lightning hit the sleeping nerves.

"Ah!" Zhang Zishu yelled, and he sat up abruptly, his temples soaked in cold sweat.

"Xiao Shu, what's the matter with you?" Mi Kaka who was looking after her by the bed immediately leaned over and asked anxiously.

"I...I...remembered!" She was still in shock, "I remembered who the murderer is!"

The last scene of her life came to mind again: she found the Death Note in the library, and at that time, she was attacked and fell in a pool of bright red blood.The murderer looked down at her with a sinister sneer on his lips.

That person is - Edison!

"It really is this guy!" Xiu Z, who was playing games at the other end of the room, answered, "Let me just say, the murderer must be Edison."

"Let's not discuss this for now." Mikaka deliberately changed the subject.He felt very uncomfortable when someone spoke ill of Edison in his presence.I don't know when, Edison has long been a hero in his mind: "Let's continue with the fifth reasoning puzzle."

"What reasoning puzzle?" Zhang Zishu asked suspiciously, everyone's eyes immediately surrounded her, and Mi Kaka looked at Zhang Zishu worriedly: "Xiao Shu, are you okay? Didn't you just say that you remembered the fifth reasoning?" Puzzle, would you like to demonstrate it to us?"

"Huh? Is there such a thing?"

"You told us that the fifth reasoning puzzle is to drink poisoned wine. You see, we have laid out the wine according to your statement." Mikaka explained patiently, pointing to the table.Sure enough, Zhang Zishu saw six glasses of wine on the table.

Exactly the same game as a year ago!
"Oh, I'm sorry, I almost forgot." She smiled awkwardly, the blood on her face hadn't recovered yet, she was still as pale as paper.

Zhang Zishu came to the table and sat down: "The situation at the time was that we had to pick a glass of wine to drink. Among the six glasses of wine, one was poisonous."

Xiu Z also sat down: "The last game is to play Russian roulette! In other words, there is a one-sixth chance of drinking poisoned wine."

"No," Zhang Zishu shook his head, "It's one-half. The voice said that one of us will definitely drink the poisoned wine."

"How come?" Xiu Z was a little surprised, and pushed his glasses, "What kind of trick was used?"

"Let's repeat the situation at that time," Zhang Zishu said, "At that time, besides me, there was that man named Edison."

"Then I will play the role of Edison." Mikaka volunteered.He was about to sit across from Zhang Zishu, but Zhang Zishu shook his head: "No, I don't want Mikaka, I want..." She raised her slender fingers, waved an arc in mid-air, and stopped at On a silly pretty face.

"Huh? Want me to play Edison?!" Mikaka originally thought that Xia Zao'an would make an excuse to refuse, but she didn't expect her to look like a pie in the sky, "Zhang Zishu, you are so discerning. In fact, I also I think my acting skills are top-notch. I also plan to become famous as L this time and enter the entertainment circle!"

I saw Xia Zao'an eagerly sat down across the table, and entered the scene very quickly, as if she was a different person immediately.In a trance, her bright face really revealed a certain sharp expression.

Xiu Z clapped and said: "Sister idiot really has acting talent, she looks a bit like that weird sorghum!"

Xia Zao stretched out her hand quietly: "Then, let's start."

"Okay." Zhang Zishu's tone was very calm.

Mikaka was confused at this moment.He was attracted by Xia Zaoan's eyes. Those eyes looked like the famous detective Edison who had woken up many times in front of him. They were calm, wise, and penetrated everything.Who is Xia Zaoan in front of him?
"There's a glass of poisoned wine here," Zhang Zishu said, "Some of us will definitely drink it."

"Yes. Either you, or me." Xia Zao'an replied calmly.

Mikaka once again saw Edison's shadow in her.Is it my own illusion?Why did Edison never wake up in this game?

"You pick first or I pick first?" Xia Zao'an asked lightly.

"In the last game, you were the one who picked first." Zhang Zishu said.

The two of them looked at each other, and the air was a bit suffocating.

It's just acting, let's take it too seriously!Mikaka couldn't say anything, so she had to stand quietly aside.

"Then I'll pick this glass." Xia Zao'an picked up one of the wine glasses.

"No, you picked this glass last time." Zhang Zishu picked up the middle glass of wine and handed it to Xia Zao'an, trying to restore the whole set.

"Then I'll drink first." Xia Zao'an took the wine glass and slowly put it to her mouth.She stared at the liquid in the wine glass with complicated eyes, and was silent for a few seconds. Then, as if she had given up all her willpower, she forced her hand holding the wine glass to slowly lift up.

Before the wine in the glass poured into her mouth, Zhang Zishu stopped her just like a year ago: "Wait a minute, I want to drink your glass."

"Yes." Xia Zao'an agreed, and handed over the wine glass.

At the moment of the handover, the eyes of the two seemed to be communicating wordlessly.After a pause, Zhang Zishu took the wine glass over.She glanced at the wine glass in her hand, and for some reason, her fingers trembled.

"I drank it." She said, with a kind of farewell desolation in her voice.

Then, she gently closed her eyes, raised her glass and drank it down.

The play is over.

Xia Zao'an returned to her normal state again, she stretched out her tone and said, "Everyone, how is my acting skill?"

The girl in front of her still had that stinky fart face, so Mi Kaka had no choice but to say with a black line, "I can win an Oscar!"

He was almost deceived by her, and he thought she was Edison just now.

When Xia Zao'an heard this comment, she laughed "crazily".Amidst her exaggerated laughter, Zhang Zishu who drank the wine suddenly vomited blood, staggered, and then slid along the edge of the table to the floor.The laughter stopped abruptly.

"Could it be that what she drank was also poisoned wine?" Xiu Z was stunned.

Xia Zao'an was also dumbfounded: "How could this happen?"

Mikaka yelled, "Call an ambulance!"

And a figure rushed out, jumped on Zhang Zishu's body and wailed: "Xiao Shu, don't leave your mother! Don't leave your mother! I am your biological mother!"

No one knows how that cup of poisoned wine came about.No one knows what the answer to the fifth reasoning puzzle is.According to postmortem examination, only one of the six drinks was poisoned.

How to turn the odds of [-]/[-] into [-]/[-]?

The ultimate reasoning puzzle has everyone stumped.

The hospital at night is extremely quiet.A figure sneaked into the hospital building silently in the dark, and went straight to a certain ward.

In that ward, Zhang Zishu was lying quietly relying on instruments and an oxygen mask to maintain his life.Just as the patrolling nurses in the corridor left, the man in black flashed out from a dark corner.

He turned the doorknob lightly with his hand, but there was no sound.The man in black walked into the ward through the half-open door.

The beating sound of the instrument sounds particularly clear in the quiet ward, tick...tick...

The man in black walked towards the person on the hospital bed.With the blurred moonlight coming in from the window, he could clearly see that the patient on the bed was Zhang Zishu who was rescued from poisoning today.At this moment, a large piece of light exploded in front of his eyes.The man in black was suddenly exposed to bright lights.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, the real murderer behind the scenes!" said a voice.

Only then did the man in black realize that he was surrounded.There were three people in the room, Mi Kaka, Xiu Z, and Xu Shiming, and it was Xiu Z who spoke.I saw him standing at the door, blocking his way, and playing with a miniature pistol in his hand.

"Don't move around, I can shoot!" Xiu Z said mischievously, but his eyes were very serious.

"Hey, is this a toy gun?" Mikaka didn't know that Xiu Z was carrying a gun, and it must be strange for a kid to have a gun.

"It's not a toy gun!" He didn't know whether he was explaining this to Mi Kaka, or he said it deliberately to the man in black.The latter stared firmly at the muzzle of the gun aimed at him. After a moment of silence without saying a word, he finally compromised and raised his hands.

"So good! It seems that you don't want to die either!" Xiu Z pointed at the man in black with a gun, "Take off your hood."

The man in black hesitated, but didn't make a move.

"Don't hide it, you can't hide it from my eyes, I know who you are!"

The man in black still didn't move.

Xiu Z didn't want to wait any longer, his powerful words and sharp eyes were aggressive: "You are Edison, you can also say, you are Xia Zaohao!"

"Are you kidding?" Mikaka was the one who was scared, "What are you talking about, how could it be Xia Zaoan?!"

Neither Xia Zaoan, who is stupid to death, nor Edison, who is so smart, will definitely be the murderer of this series of cases.Mikaka is convinced of this.
