The main dancer Rika is the tallest one and stands in the center. He Zhi is the second tallest and stands on Rika's left.

A green performance costume, just, it looks pretty good.

The opening dance was the most lively song and it was also the most famous song in the band, StartDash, copied from μ's. The whole audience sang along.

The atmosphere of a concert is different. Those who have never been there will never experience the feeling of everyone being one. Listening to everyone's cheers, even the most indifferent people can't help but get excited.

After they finish singing and dancing, they greet each other, and then say "Hey!", "Hey!", "Nice!" to each other... Such casual chats are the daily routine that will interest fans.

There were nearly 20 songs in total and the concert lasted three hours, which meant that they had to chat intermittently for an hour and a half.

Being an idol has always been a profession where people with social phobia cannot survive.

However, nowadays the idols’ lines are all decided and memorized by the program team in advance, which is still friendly to He Zhi, but it is really embarrassing to pretend in front of more than 10,000 people.

Miyano Haruna was recording the video silently, laughing so hard that her stomach was about to burst.

//

"Ah, nervous, nervous!"

"Did I smile awkwardly just now?"

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

In the second half, they had to change into their performance costumes. The backstage was in chaos. Seven people put plastic bags on their heads before changing clothes to avoid getting their makeup and costumes dirty.

Without interrupting their conversation.

Miki, who was in the third grade, felt her legs go weak and she sat down on the stool. "Thank you, Sister Hezhi. My mind went blank and I forgot the lyrics. QAQ"

"It's okay, I just forgot the lyrics while chatting, not the lyrics." Feng Jian Hezhi sat on the stool and let the staff touch up her makeup.

Miki sighed, "In fact, I have completely forgotten the lyrics and dance moves... I just let my body move on its own and I have no idea what I did."

"This just shows that Miki works very hard and has practiced singing into her subconscious." Kazami Hezhi praised seriously.

Miki stood up all of a sudden, straightened her body proudly, and laughed foolishly.

"He Zhi is still so good at praising others, as if all she sees are the strengths of others." Jing Dai hinted at something.

Lianyou lowered her head and let the staff deal with her hair, with a hint of sarcasm on her lips, "Yeah, you can only judge a person by his appearance, not his heart. Don't think too highly of everyone."

Muzi frowned, "Lianyou!"

Feng Jian He Zhi followed suit and smiled, "Mu Zi, Lian You is also worried about me. Don't worry, I don't think that everyone in the world is a good person. It's because you are all very good, and I can't find any shortcomings to say bad things about you. I won't treat others like this."

"I have a good eye." Feng Jian He Zhi affirmed.

The six people were silent for a while, and Songxue pushed her glasses with a smile. The makeup artist had specially added a teardrop mole on her face. The gold-rimmed glasses and the teardrop mole were so perfect. "Who does He Zhi like the most?"

Everyone else looked at Feng Jian He Zhi. Feng Jian He Zhi opened his eyes wide. He never expected Song Xue to ask such an inhuman question. He could only be a balance master and said, "You are all my favorite!"

"Cut~"

After taking a few sips of water with straws, the seven of them played around backstage for a few minutes. After the guest performer finished singing, they were urged to jog onto the stage.

Next was the main song by Miki, who was in charge of rap. She looked youthful and lively, but she was full of aura when she sang rap.

Miki stood in the middle, and the other six people scattered around. After the first section, it was Hezhi's part. Miki sang while preparing to retreat and give the center point to Hezhi.

She was singing the last few lines of the lyrics when her throat, which had been feeling a little uncomfortable, suddenly felt a pain. The next second, everyone in the audience heard a hoarse, broken sound coming from the microphone.

The whole place was in an uproar.

Miki's face changed drastically and she covered her throat in panic. There was chaos on the stage. Hezhi was moving from the left to the center, but she stopped at a loss and looked at Miki worriedly.

The next second, there was a sudden sound of something breaking above her head, and a scream of terror came from the audience. He Zhi looked up and saw the heavy glass ceiling crashing down!

Her mind was blank. When facing danger, her body was stiff and she couldn't move. She was dazed and felt someone suddenly push her away from behind, and cold hair brushed across her neck.

She fell heavily to the ground, and the great fear made her struggle for the first time

When he turned around, he only saw a hand with a blue wristband reaching out from under the broken ceiling.

"Pear... Xiang?"

She held Lixiang's hand in a daze.

Incomprehensible.

Don't want to believe it.

Calling Li Xiang's name over and over again.

No one answered.

I heard someone shouting Jingdai's name again. I looked up and saw Jingdai fell down. Muzi cried and said Jingdai was not breathing.

What's the meaning.

Don't want to understand.

Kazami Hezhi lowered her head and held Lixiang's hand, which was gradually losing its temperature.

I don’t know anything anymore.

Chapter 88 Who is the murderer?

"Officer Megure, the scene has been searched."

Since it was a major case that happened in front of 10,000 people and the news was spread, the whole of Japan was paying attention to this matter.

All the idle police officers in the Metropolitan Police Department were mobilized to evacuate the excited crowd back home and start investigating the case.

Natsuno Sosuke had a gloomy face. He glanced at Hezhi, who was sitting in the front row with her coat in her arms, and reported the progress of the case to Inspector Megure. "Lethal poison was found in the victim Kyoyo's water cup. Harmful substances that can damage the sound were found in the victim Miki's water cup. The fallen ceiling was also confirmed to have signs of human damage, but the surveillance video from a few days ago happened to be broken."

"Later, Muzi felt her eyes burned and became blind, and a blinding substance was found in her eye drops."

Inspector Megure rubbed his head in pain, "Four people were injured within a dozen minutes, this is really..."

This case concerns Kazami Hezhi. After the case happened, classmates were asking in the group what happened and wanted to comfort Kazami Hezhi, but she didn't say a word.

Natsuno Sosuke has been working hard to investigate since he arrived at the scene, no longer slacking off like usual, "Officer Megure, I think these four things were done by four different people. Kyoyo's death, Miki's throat, and Muzi's eyes were all aimed at the three of them, and Rika died to save Hezhi, and the one they wanted to kill was Hezhi."

"Let's talk about the drugs in Kyoyo and Miki's cups first. As idols, they drink water from their own cups to prevent other things from being in the water handed to them by others. Because they have a concert today, in order to avoid having to go to the bathroom during the concert, they drank water from paper cups in the dormitory before coming to the concert. After that, they each brought a full cup of water to the scene. They didn't drink once before the first half of the concert, and only drank some water during the intermission to replenish water."

"What they drank was salt water, which could quickly replenish their body's energy and water. The drugs were blocked by the salty taste, so they didn't notice anything unusual."

Officer Megure stroked his chin and thought, "The only time to poison someone is when the water is being poured into the dormitory, and in the first half when the water cup is placed backstage?"

"Yes, the dormitory is shared by seven people from the idol group, and there is no one else. There are a lot of people backstage and it's very messy, so we haven't started asking yet." But Natsuno Sosuke didn't think the culprit was among the backstage staff.

Officer Megure nodded and said, "Let's question him together after Brother Maori arrives."

Natsuno Sosuke also knew that he was not capable enough, so he could only try his best to give Conan the background of the case before Conan came.

He went on to say, "As for Muzi's eye drops, she always keeps them in her handbag. Her eyes are usually dry, and because the stage lights are too bright, she immediately puts in eye drops after the guest performers come on stage and go backstage to rest. The handbag containing the eye drops is placed together with the water cup, and they are all placed on the shelf in a unified manner as usual."

"Just like the water cup, there are two possibilities: the dormitory and the backstage." Inspector Megure was having a headache.

“And finally, there’s that chandelier.”

Xia Ye Cangjie frowned, "Originally there was no chandelier on the stage. Usually downlights are used to create the effect. There was a scene effect for a song that required the kind of light and shadow produced by light shining through the glass chandelier, so it was just installed the day before yesterday."

"The forensic report said that the chandelier was tied with a timed vibration device. It had been cut and was shaky. When the time came, the chandelier broke and fell down. The criminal was very careful. There were no fingerprints or hair residues on either the chandelier or the timed vibration device."

Officer Megure gritted his teeth and said, "What about the source of the vibration device? Can we start by looking for the buyer of the vibration device?"

"I'm afraid not."

Xia Ye Cangjie organized his words and explained tactfully, "This is a vibration device with high sales volume and high power. In addition, the store respects the privacy of customers and can only provide the sales quantity. We do not have any purchase records of customers to provide."

Officer Megure was stunned for a moment, "Is it an illegal black shop?"

Natsuno Sosuke could only say, "...It's bedding."

"For the bed... Oh, oh." Officer Megure finally realized what was happening and coughed awkwardly twice. "This is indeed difficult to find."

Not to mention the shops, there are also a large number of self-service vending machines in Japan that are unattended and unmonitored. How can we find their source?

Natsuno Sosuke continued to add, "The song that was sung when the accident happened was designed by the deceased Rika. Miki stood in the middle as the opening rap, and everyone spread out in a circle. The second half of the song turned into singing, and Miki merged into the outer circle. Hezhi moved to the middle and began to sing the second verse. Anyone who has seen the rehearsal knows this."

"The concert was rehearsed several times in advance, with the timing accurate to every minute and every second.

The lines that liven up the atmosphere were all designed. After confirmation by the forensic department, the timing on the vibration device was just when He Zhi stood in the center after the movement - the target of the attack was indeed He Zhi. "

Officer Megure glanced at Kazemi Hezhi in the audience and asked in a low voice, "How is her mental state now? Can we question her?"

"No."

Xia Ye Cangjie directly refused, "Her friend died in front of her to save her, and she was mentally traumatized. Let's move her to the end and ask her."

"Well, that's it."

Officer Megure shook his head. "Hezhi... This name is the same as my former boss's daughter. I even attended the full moon banquet."

It’s a pity that the three members of the family died in the fire.

He straightened his hat, stopped thinking about it, turned his attention back to the case, and continued to listen to his subordinates' reports.

"After preliminary investigation, the only people who approached the racks backstage were the program director, the victim Miki's mother and manager, the deceased Kyodai's assistant, and He Zhi's trainee manager."

Xia Ye Cangjie added: "These four people were monitored by Shiratori backstage, and the others were waiting in the front row of area B under the stage, with two or three police officers watching. In the idol group, except for the two dead and two injured in hospital, Song Xue, Ren You, and He Zhi were all waiting in area A under the stage."

Officer Megure's phone vibrated. He took out his phone and answered it. His expression finally relaxed. "You're here? Okay, I'll ask Xia Ye to pick you up."

After hanging up the phone, Inspector Megure asked Natsuno Sosuke to go to the door and let the Mori family in.

Because the incident had a huge impact, almost all the people who came to the concert were die-hard fans. Even if they were evacuated, they were unwilling to leave and just gathered outside the venue. More and more fans came to surround them.

Therefore, the Metropolitan Police Department deployed a lot of police force to block the entrances and exits.

Chapter 89 Transcript

Miyano Haruna, in her capacity as a member of Hezhi's superior company, sat in seats in zone B with Haibara Ai.

Miyano Haruna talked a lot with Kazemi Hezhi in private chat, but didn't get a single reply. She wanted to take Huihara Ai to Area A to see her, but was stopped by the guards because Area A was a key figure in the case and could not be contacted to avoid being taken away and evidence destroyed. This had happened before.

Miyano Haruna also knew this and could only sit down anxiously.

"Let Sister Hezhi calm down for a while." Huiyuan Ai said this, but she never took her eyes off Fengjian Hezhi. "It's so painful for her to die to save her... It will take some time for her to accept it."

It’s not that simple…it’s not that simple!

Miyano Haruna bit her lip, worried to death.

We are the immortal ones.

Therefore, He Zhi's inner torment must be even greater——

//

Feng Jian Hezhi lowered his head, staring at his knees in a trance, or maybe he was not looking at anything.

Lianyou and Songxue sat aside to comfort her, but she didn't even want to pay attention to them.

It was not until everyone around him was called away one by one and the police asked him to go backstage for questioning that he calmly stood up and followed them.

The person asking the question was Officer Shiratori, "Did you notice anything unusual backstage during the intermission?"

He Zhi thought hard and said, "No. During the ten minutes when the guest performer was singing, besides changing into new costumes and putting on makeup backstage, I was talking to my friends about my nervousness before the performance and didn't pay attention to anything else."

Officer Shiratori made a note, "Have you seen anyone else approach your water cups and bags?"

"No."

"Who poured the salt water this morning?"

"Why is this a question?"

Officer Shiratori did not answer.

Kazami Hezhi asked, "Do you suspect the murderer is among the seven of us?"

Officer Shiratori did not answer, but said, "We need to have all the evidence to figure out the culprit."

Kazami Hezhi was silent for a moment, then answered, "We boiled water in the electric kettle in the kitchen, added salt according to the usual proportion, and then filled the washed cups in the kitchen with water. Today I boiled the water, mixed the salt water, and poured it in. Because they all drank cold water except me, I covered my thermos and took it away, and left their cups in the coolest place in the kitchen to cool down."

Lianyou and Songxue had mentioned this matter before, and they just checked it with Fengjian Hezhi again. Officer Shiratori continued to ask, "Who entered the kitchen after you?"

"It was... Muzi, I guess. She went into the kitchen to make oatmeal, and I gave up the kitchen and went back to the house. I don't know what happened after that."

Officer Shiratori changed the subject, "Where are your handbags?"

"When I return to the dormitory, I will go to my room and throw my bag on the bed. Matsuyuki and... Rika will take the bag back to the room first. Kyodai, Muzi, and Renyou will put the handbag on the shelf at the door first, and then take it back to the room when they remember. Miki will throw her bag on the sofa and take it back when she returns to the room at night."

Officer Shiratori took note.
