"Isn't that just about pursuing a sense of ritual?"

“I believe most people think that way, but that’s not actually the case. The reason he did it is actually very simple: to confirm the time.”

"Does this person have a watch on his wrist, so he can see the time when he touches his forehead?"

Asada Shino's doubts were finally resolved, and she felt enlightened.

So that's how the murderer committed the crime.

Are you living alone now?

Lin Yan said.

"Ah."

Asada Shino looked at Lin Yan with some confusion, then nodded.

Are you sure the room is safe?

"What do you mean? I did lock the electronic lock, and... the latch... seems... not closed..."

Asada Shino's mind went completely blank for a moment. Fear washed over her like a tidal wave, instantly overwhelming all her thoughts. No matter how hard she tried to recall, she couldn't remember any of the details. She had been so shaken that she didn't know whether she had checked the doors and windows or not.

No, the more I think about it, the more my head hurts.

Lin Yan suddenly noticed that he had overlooked a detail.

"Dead Gun used a tranquilizer on you at the time."

then……

Lin Yan glared fiercely at Dead Gun beside him, his eyes revealing not a trace of fear, unease, or apprehension. He had to admit, this was unlike anyone he had ever met before…

Kyoji Shinkawa... he's a complete madman.

"Actually, they had already completed the preparations for their plan."

"what?"

Asada Shino's face turned deathly pale. The most terrifying image flashed through her mind: Shinkawa Kyoji had quietly sneaked into her room.

And he did those things to her.

At this point, the body, paralyzed by anesthesia, is completely unable to move.

Let that pervert do whatever he wants.

It's impossible to imagine what Shinkawa Kyoji might do to her.

No, the more I think about it, the more terrifying it becomes.

Imagine a person about to be killed and powerless to resist; the piercing fear that chills one to the bone is enough to make one shudder.

Asada Shino's body trembled uncontrollably. She seemed to sense someone staring at her menacingly, or perhaps even choking her.

At that moment, Dead Gun, who was standing next to him, suddenly quit the game.

Asada Shino also wants to log off soon.

"No, you can't force yourself to quit now. If you force yourself to quit, you'll encounter the murderer... and then there will be no way out."

"What should I do? What should I do?"

Shino Asada was completely panicked and had no ability to continue thinking.

"What you need to do now is calm down. I will get to your place as soon as possible."

"Really? Will you go? Will you save me?"

Asada Shino immediately threw herself into Lin Yan's arms. Although she was only a virtual being, she could still feel a sense of warmth and security from his embrace.

His trembling body gradually calmed down.

"I'll quietly withdraw from the match, but of course, you have to be the one to kill me. That way, no one will suspect anything..."

Lin Yan said.

Asada Shino simply nodded mechanically.

She no longer had the capacity to think about so many things and could only act according to Lin Yan's plan.

Moreover, deep down, she seems to have a particularly important sense of trust.

The person in front of me is someone I can rely on.

Lin Yan's plan proceeded smoothly, although he and Asada Shino lived not far apart in the real world.

At that moment, Asada Shino vaguely heard a voice. She had already been forcibly logged off, and it was a heavy breathing sound, the voice of someone speaking.

"Asada-kun... wake up... look at me, I'm right here beside you, don't keep looking at that guy."

Kyoji Shinkawa looked at Shino Asada, who was lying flat, with a strange expression, and Shino Asada slowly opened her eyes.

The moment I opened my eyes, I felt an intense, bone-chilling cold.

She saw the last person she wanted to see—Kyoji Shinkawa.

Lin Yan's words instantly came to mind: there were three suspects in the Death Gun case, one of whom was Shinkawa Kyoji standing right in front of him.

This is in conjunction with his previous abnormal behavior.

All of this then fell into place naturally.

At this moment, Shino Asada felt as if she could no longer control her body.

"Why are you here?"

Asada Shino managed to squeeze out a single sentence with all her might, appearing so weak and pitiful.

What's most striking are her innocent, large eyes, fair cheeks and skin, and delicate, boneless body.

"Asada-kun... Haven't you realized how much I love you? I love you, I love you deeply... No one in this world loves you more than I do... Shino..."

Kyoji Shinkawa said with utmost enthusiasm.

His eyes and breathing were abnormal, just like his behavior in the small park that day, but even more urgent.

His voice was incredibly hoarse, and his eyes were bloodshot.

This is the true face of that shameless scoundrel.

"do not come."

Asada Shino tried with all her might to stand up, but to no avail.

“Everything I’ve done is for you. If I had increased the dosage, you wouldn’t be able to wake up now. The reason I’m keeping you awake is so that you can see my love for you.”

Kyoji Shinkawa said shamelessly.

"I love you so much, how could you possibly be thinking about other men? That's absolutely unacceptable."

A strange smile appeared on Shinkawa Kyoji's face.

He approached Asada Shino step by step, looking down at her, who was unable to move.

It was like a ferocious beast closing in on its prey.

They are watching with predatory eyes.

At this moment, Shino Asada truly regretted not being wary of Kyoji Shinkawa's inappropriate behavior back then, thinking it was just a momentary impulse from a young boy. Now it seemed that his innocent, boyish appearance was nothing but a disguise.

A demon dwells within Shinkawa Kyoji's heart.

A complete devil.

An ugly demon.

Kyoji Shinkawa looked at the immobilized Shino Asada, his eyes filled with a madness and greed he had never seen before.

Is it truly inevitable that we cannot escape this fate?

Although Lin Yan promised to do what he said he would, Asada Shino knew that the hospital Lin Yan mentioned was still quite a distance away.

By the time Lin Yan arrives here... she will probably already be dead.

And even more terrifying things will happen before that.

"Calm down, Shino Asada, calm down... calm down..."

Asada Shino thought to herself.

Her breathing gradually calmed down.

Since Shinkawa Kyoji didn't kill him immediately, there was a chance to buy time until Lin Yan came to rescue her.

You must persevere.

At that moment, Kyoji Shinkawa took out an object—a plastic product. It had a cone-shaped tip, a cylinder, and a green button. It looked like a toy, but Shino Asada knew it was definitely not.

This is the tool used in the crime.

This is the murder weapon.

"Xin...chuan...?"

Asada Shino's mind raced as she considered what she could do to stall for time.

"Asada-kun, please don't make a sound."

Shinkawa Kyoji said with a strange smile.

"What are you holding in your hand?" Having nothing else to say, Asada Shino looked at the object and asked; all she wanted to do was stall for time.

"Oh? Are you interested in this?"

"This is a needle-free high-pressure injector. Do you know 'succinylcholine'?"

"A person can die silently simply by being injected into their body."

Kyoji Shinkawa's smile was sinister.

"Why did you kill me?"

Asada Shino asked.

"Kill you? What do you mean by killing you? This is an expression of my love for you. Only in this way can I keep you by my side... only in this way can you not think about other men, not touch other men... not miss other men... Isn't this good?"

"Hahahaha... I love you, Shino, Asada-kun, do you know how much I love you..."

Love?

Is this love?

Love leads to killing—what kind of logic is that? Lin Yan is right; Shinkawa Kyoji is the most insane one. Even though the other Death Gun has failed, he still wants to kill Asada Shino according to the original plan.

He's a complete madman.

Are you Death Gun?

Asada Shino watched the syringe approach her step by step. If she didn't have something to talk about to buy time, it would really be too late.

"As expected of my Shi Nong, still so clever and quick-witted. That's right, I am Death Gun... I am Death Gun..."

Kyoji Shinkawa looked at Shino Asada with adoration, as if she was once again captivated by him.

He took a deep breath.

That expression only comes from a perverse craving for a certain food.

This made Shino Asada feel a deep sense of disgust.

She had to keep the conversation going into the afternoon, otherwise Shinkawa Kyoji would kill her without hesitation, after all, for Shinkawa Kyoji...

Killing doesn't seem to be a terrifying thing for him; he enjoys it.

Therefore, it is essential to delay the process.
