Reasoning Notes

Chapter 267 Reasoning Notes 6: The Criminologist Showdown (20)
The time bomb placed in the hall seemed to be mocking them, blinking its one-eyed red screen.

"What to do! What to do! I don't want to die!" Xia Zao'an rolled on the grass like a child who couldn't get candy.

Meng Jin was also anxious and kept wiping his sweat with a handkerchief. "Brother Mi, quickly figure out the password!"

It is easy to say, but it is even more difficult to think about it.As time went by, Mikaka became more and more anxious.

There was no other way, so he decided to give it a go.He asked Meng Jin to help him up.

"Do you know the password?" Meng Jin was pleasantly surprised.

Mikaka nodded stiffly. "Try it……"

He didn't know the password, he just planned to enter one in a gambling way to try.It's better than waiting here to die.

His fingers touched the keys.

He took a deep breath.

One in nine chances, can he succeed?
His fingers were about to press down.

At that moment, at that moment.A voice came from behind him.

"Wait a moment."

The time bomb jumps to the last second.

The bang of the explosion shattered the peaceful blue sky.

In the empty center of the town, the gorgeous palace collapsed, and the huge dust cloud rushed to a height of more than ten meters like mushrooms. Dust and rubble fell freely, and the air waves spread from the center to the periphery. The grass swayed in the thin summer sun.

"Hey hey." The man standing on the hillside smiled evilly at the gradually subsiding smoke and dust.

It's all settled.His plan worked.

He turned around and was about to leave.But at that moment, he heard an unbelievable voice.

"Reaper Lime is really you."

He froze.The cold temperature spread from the heart to the whole body.As if he had received a great blow, he slowly turned his head, his eyes widened in surprise.

"How...how is it possible...?!" He muttered, unable to utter a complete sentence.

Standing behind him were three familiar people, Mi Kaka, Meng Jin, and Xia Zaoan.They were disheveled and had apparently just escaped from the explosion just now.

"Wu Jiahong's poker card was painted with a 6 of squares on the reward announcement, but the ancients had never seen a poker card, so there is only one possibility, that is, they reversed the pattern of the poker card. The real poker card is A 9 of squares, not a 6."

The reasoning is absolutely correct.But what surprised Lime was that the person who made this reasoning was not Mikaka, but Xia Zaoan, who seemed to be a different person.She walked towards him with bright eyes, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was full of confidence: "Now let me unravel the mysteries one by one."

"In this case, there are the following strange things. One is the magic axe. No one can pick it up. But you can easily manipulate it. Why? Is there anything special about this axe? The hint is that it is made of iron The trick you used here is exactly the same as in the secret room just now. In the room that Uncle Meng Jin broke into at the scene of the fire, the door bolt was broken beforehand, so why did you keep the door tightly closed? It was intentional for Mi Kaka to discover the flaw in the latch, just to show off his cleverness. You must have thought that in such a short period of time, we had no choice but to flee for our lives instead of staying at the scene to solve the case. But, you are wrong. "

"The answer is that the inner layer of the wooden door is actually made of iron. Why is it like this? It's very simple. There is an electromagnet under the axe and the door. The function of the electromagnet is the same as that of a magnet. Hold it tight. Because of this, the magic ax was sucked by the base, and it couldn't be picked up. In order to conceal the existence of the electromagnet, almost no iron products were used in this palace. That night I Before being attacked by you, I found a strange rope leading directly to the bottom of the princess's throne. It was actually a wire. When you unplug it, the electromagnet will lose its function, and you can easily pick up the axe. For the same reason, Meng Jin was hitting The second time you opened the door, you unplugged the wires and the wooden door was easily knocked open."

"However, there is one thing that I find very strange." Mikaka asked after wiping her dust-stained face. "How did he make Wang Haoyu's body appear on the tree? At that time, none of us, including Lime himself, had the chance to do anything!"

"No!" Xia Zao'an said resolutely, "Lyme made a small move. He had to put his hand in his trouser pocket and make a phone call."

"A phone call? Could it be..."

"That's right, it's the missed call on Wang Haoyu's phone. Of course, she changed the calling card in advance, so as not to be traced and found that the call was made by herself."

"Ah, I still don't understand!" Meng Jin scratched his head desperately, the white ash on his hair fell like a scalp. "How can a phone call hang a dead body?"

"It's just an ordinary physical phenomenon." Xia Zao'an said lightly.Those beautiful eyes were clear and broken blue, emitting an icy light.

Rhyme stood there, feeling sick.The body is as empty as a cave.Not only the air, it seems that even the wind can pass through.He began to sense his own defeat.

"Physical phenomenon?" Meng Jin asked.

"Just imagine what would happen if two objects of the same weight were hung from a tree by a string."

Mikaka pondered for a while and immediately replied: "According to physics, these two objects of the same weight can be at any height. Ah!" He suddenly thought of something and shouted: "You mean, Wang Haoyu and Are the stones in the bamboo basket the same weight?"

"Correct answer." Xia Zao'an snapped her fingers confidently.

"Laime first buried Wang Haoyu's body under the fallen leaves, and the bamboo basket was hung high on the tree. The tree was far away from the path, and it was easy to see at a glance. It was because of this that our woman When this group of people passed by, they didn't find the body. When the man's group passed by, Lime secretly dialed Wang Haoyu's mobile phone. The mobile phone was originally placed on a tree branch, but because it was set to vibrate, it was easy to get from it. When it fell into the set bamboo basket, the weight of the bamboo basket changed, and the heavier bamboo basket slowly pulled up the lighter Wang Haoyu. Then, the corpse mysteriously Appeared, this trick almost washed away Lime's alibi. Of course, Lime had planned with his accomplices in advance, and his accomplices outside the palace would turn off the signal jammer at that time, so that Lime We were able to dial the mobile phone smoothly, and when the trick was completed, the accomplice turned on the signal jammer again, in order to cut off our connection with the outside world."

"What? Lime has accomplices?" Mikaka was surprised. "Who is his accomplice?"

Xia Zaoan chuckled, "I'm afraid it's a resident of the ancient city of Kapok. Just imagine, to complete this fake time travel, how could these villagers pretending to be ancient people not know about it? They must have formed a relationship with Lime for some reason." Guys, come to carry out this murderous plan..."

In the middle of speaking, she suddenly stopped.Eyes looked behind Rhyme.

I saw dense figures coming out of the woods.Standing behind Reaper Lime one by one.

"Ah! Aren't you just..." Seeing those people, Mi Kaka and Meng Jin blinked in astonishment.

They were the shopkeeper and waiter of Yuelai Inn, as well as the villagers holding torches, and even the passers-by at that time were inside.It's just that they have all taken off the clothes of the ancients now and restored the clothes of the modern people.

"I didn't expect you to see through our plan." An old man stroked his white beard and walked to the front of the crowd.Taking a closer look, he turned out to be Daoist Baiyun.Of course, the Taoist leader is also pretending.

"I heard from the princess that we may meet a powerful person. Is it you?" He looked at Xia Zao'an, his face full of complicated emotions.Xia Zao'an raised her head slightly.

"Excuse me, excuse me," she laughed. "The princess you are talking about should be Cheng Meini."

Daoist Baiyun stroked his beard calmly. "We don't know the name of the princess. We only know that her surname is Cheng, and she is a wealthy business lady." Who else could this be if it wasn't Cheng Meini.

Xia Zaoan asked: "Then how did you cooperate with her?"

Daoist Baiyun said: "About half a year ago, Miss Cheng came to our ancient city, and she told us that she could avenge us. So we cooperated with her."

"So, did you send Lime the God of Death to sneak into our tour group and wait for the opportunity to kill someone?" Saying that, Xia Zaoan glanced at Lime the God of Death again.His eyes were slightly flustered, but he immediately returned to coldness.

"Don't blame the mayor and the villagers!" He said seriously, his cheeks flushed a little, "I did everything and it has nothing to do with them."

"Lyme..." The folks behind him wanted to say something, but he stopped them.

"I did it all. Wu Jiahong, Liu Jinsong, Tan Minghong, I killed these people. But they should be damned! I never regret it!" He said with a hard expression.The lonely figure stood under the shade of lush trees, with deep and shallow shadow spots cast on his body like a gray wall.

I killed people.I do not regret.he said so coldly.

At that moment, the silent wind blew the dogtail grass all over the world.

"You...why do you do this?" Flowing sorrow quickly filled all the space in my heart.Mikaka looked at Reaper, God of Death, and gently called out his name: "Xiaohan, why did you kill those people?!"

Xiaohan, Huang Yuhan, Reaper Lime, names that could never be linked together before, brought Mikaka endless consternation and regret.This is his former good friend, but he is a cold murderer.
