Reasoning Notes

Chapter 225 Reasoning Notes 5: The Final Game (35)
This is the story of Zodiac.Hei Kui A, who had been silent all this time, listened quietly, motionless like a statue.He had heard this story from Qi Mu a long time ago, so the Zodiac Killer was the author of Death Note.After Meng Jin finished speaking, Edison couldn't wait to ask: "Then what else did you find?"

Meng Jin took another sip of tea and moistened his parched throat: "I found a lot of things. I was not familiar with the place there, and I couldn't even speak a word of English. But it was strange, as if someone was As if secretly helping me, I successfully found out the prison where the Zodiac Killer was once held, and also found out that he had committed suicide 20 years ago, in the 90s.”

"Suicide?" Edison frowned slightly.

"Yes, it is said that he committed suicide by setting fire in the prison, and his body was charred."

Strange...what's wrong?Edison's heart sank immediately, and he wanted to find out why this strange feeling came from.

"Do you have a picture of the Zodiac Killer?" Edison asked Meng Jin with some uneasiness in his heart.

"Yes." Meng Jin said while looking through the documents scattered on the desktop, "By the way, I almost forgot that a month before the Zodiac Killer committed suicide, someone visited him frequently. That person was very mysterious. His name is not in the official records, other than Mr One."

"Mr One?" The second generation, who rarely spoke, opened his mouth in surprise as if he knew the name.

Edison turned his gaze to him: "Do you know this man?"

"He is the pseudonym commonly used by the God of Reasoning in the early days!" The second generation continued, "one is used to represent the first generation. But for some reason, the God of Reasoning gave up using this pseudonym later."

When he said this, Edison was also very surprised: "That is to say, the god of reasoning had contact with the Zodiac killer! Huh? This is interesting. What happened between them?"

He cast his questioning eyes on the second generation, and the second generation quickly waved his hand: "Don't look at me, I don't know, I was recruited by the God of Reasoning to be the second generation more than ten years ago. Speaking of it..." The second generation seemed to remember What, "That's when a strange thing happened."

"What's weird?"

Under the dim light, the second generation recalled the past many years ago.

"That was when I first met the God of Reasoning. At that time, I was young and a fledgling detective boy. Because I had solved several major cases, one day I received a letter from the God of Reasoning, saying that he planned to Trained me to be his successor. Later we communicated by correspondence. We had agreed on the time and place to meet, but the god of reasoning did not come that day. He later explained to me that he found a very interesting notebook, He's going to be away for a while. I asked him what notebook it was that interested him so much. He said it would be a world-shattering notebook, and at the same time a very dangerous notebook. I'm worried about it, but the god of reasoning Said it was okay. We agreed on the time and place to meet next time, but the next time, he still didn’t show up and didn’t send me a letter. Finally I couldn’t help writing to him again, but his reply was very strange, as if It’s like never knowing me. But then he seemed to remember it again, and agreed on the time and place to meet again. After that meeting, I was determined to be the second generation.”

When he said this, even others could hear something was wrong.The notebook that the God of Reasoning was very interested in was probably the Death Note.

Edison speculated: "It may be that the God of Reasoning knew the existence of the Death Note from a certain channel, so he decided to go to meet the Zodiac Killer. At that time, it was the time when you and the God of Reasoning first met. It matches. But now there are two doubts: Why did the Zodiac Killer commit suicide shortly after meeting the God of Reasoning? Also, why did the God of Reasoning known by the second generation look like two different people?"

"There must be some kind of relationship between the two..." The second generation's face also became serious.They seemed to have thought of something terrible at the same time.

"Ah! I found it!" Meng Jin finally found the photo in the file and put it under the light.

Several pairs of eyes focused on the past at the same time, and an evil face in the black and white photo quietly entered their pupils.

At that moment, the air seemed to freeze.

The man in the photo is in his fifties, with a thin face, and his dark complexion, which seems to be undernourished, makes people uncomfortable no matter how they look.But his hair was disheveled, the bridge of his nose was straight, his lips were tightly closed, his expression was solemn, and his eyes stared straight ahead indifferently.

"This is the photo of Zodiac, I found it in the old files." Meng Jin said.

"Hmm..." Edison responded softly, "Do you feel like you've seen this person before?"

"It seems to have this feeling..." The second generation stared at the photo seriously and replied.

They fell into silence, all thinking about this unsolvable mystery.

"No way? This person has been dead for more than 20 years!" Meng Jin scratched the messy beard on his chin again, "If you saw it, wouldn't you have seen a ghost?"

"It's not necessarily a ghost..." Edison still didn't leave the picture, and a vague voice came out from the back of his throat, "It might be a god."

"God? What god?" Xia Zao'an took over her body again.

Suddenly, Edison picked up a pen and quickly scribbled something on the picture of Zodiac.After a while, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "It really is."

The moment he came to this conclusion, he felt relieved a lot, and erected the altered photo.The light seemed to be much brighter at that moment, and Zodiac's facial features were clearly imprinted in everyone's pupils.The gentle light above the head fell silent, and surprised faces floated in the gently flickering light.

"My God!" Meng Jin seemed to have been greatly stimulated, his face was pale, his hands trembling, he picked up a tissue to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, "Isn't this person just..."

"It's him!" The second generation stared at the photo, with an imperceptible fear hidden in his voice.Heikui A didn't speak, his mask covered up all his astonishment.Only Xia Zaoan, who had regained control of her body, made a fuss and yelled, "Wow! Isn't this the God of Reasoning?!"

"Zodiac is the god of reasoning? Huh? Wait a minute, didn't Uncle Meng Jin say that Zodiac Sun Chenming committed suicide?"

Xia Zao's voice was always echoing in the room, and the tone changed instantly from light to low, it sounded like the same person was playing a voice-changing game.But the next person to analyze the problem was Edison.

"It's a hoax," Edison said.

"The one who died in the prison was not the Zodiac Killer, but the real God of Reasoning. I don't know what trick he used, but the Zodiac Killer obviously used the Death Note to lure the God of Reasoning into being fooled, and then took the opportunity to kill After killing him, and then pretending to be self-immolation, the Zodiac Killer will leave the prison logically and become the God of Reasoning. The reason why no one sees through his plot is because the God of Reasoning has always been secretive. Never revealing his true colors to others. And this is exactly what the Zodiac Killer takes advantage of."

"That is to say..." Meng Jin swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva forcefully, and the tense atmosphere in the room was so overwhelming that it was hard to breathe. "The current god of reasoning is fake, is it Zodiac Killer Sun Chenming?"

"That's Joker!" Edison suddenly raised his voice, and the echo of righteous words echoed in the surrounding darkness.

"Oh my god! I can't think of it! I can't think of it!"

"However, in this way, it can also explain why the god of reasoning did such insane things." The second generation said in a sad tone, thinking of the dead Xiu Z, he choked up, "Because he is the Zodiac Killer! The author of Death Note!" Said, the second generation clenched his fists and slammed the table several times.

"But, but, I have a question!"——with Xia Zao'an's silly tone again.

"Since that guy named Sun Chenming is the author of the Death Note, why does he try his best to get back the Death Note? Isn't it enough for him to write another one himself?"

"It's not that simple." Edison said, "Death Note is the painstaking effort of Zodiac Killer in prison for decades. Someone else. Because Death Note is unique, exclusive to him.”

"Oh! That makes sense." Xia Zao'an nodded seriously.

In fact, in the eyes of others, their dialogue is nothing more than a person talking to himself.

"The problem is," Edison paused, and looked at Meng Jin, "Who is the person who pretended to be me and assigned tasks to you, Uncle?"

"Oh, I don't know either! The person who met me that day was really not you? But she looks exactly like you! My God! Don't you have a twin sister or something?" Meng Jin still didn't think so. Dare to believe all this, sweat can't stop flowing.

"That person must have a superb disguise technique." Edison seemed to have guessed something, "That person should also be on the opposite side of the God of Reasoning, so she pretended to be me and tricked you to go to the United States to investigate the Zodiac Killer is reasoning the truth of God."

"Then who is she?"

"Have you not remembered yet?" Edison said calmly, "Who in the poker organization has the most amazing disguise skills?"

"Ah!" Xia Zaoan immediately remembered, "Plum Blossom J! Cheng Meini!"

Immediately, Meng Jin slapped his thigh in a sudden realization, and Hei Kui A also nodded in a sudden realization.
