For the first time and the second time, she just discovered the "human face", and she didn't witness anyone who could destroy it.

She could only use the method of elimination to exclude the guys who appeared in the investigation one by one.

Since in the last investigation, those who investigated the alliance expressed surprise at the "human face".

Then none of them should know what "human face" represents.

After excluding them, the monitor of class two (C) and a waiter in a family restaurant were also involved in the first investigation.

Kirizaki Ameng herself was on her previous suspicion list. In her opinion, it is undoubtedly more worthy of in-depth investigation.

The first person is chosen.

Then, continue to use the method of exclusion to exclude, in the second investigation, in addition to the investigation alliance, there are three people involved.

Two of them are kindergarten children, they can eliminate "human faces" and so on, which is impossible no matter how you think about it.

Then the last person, their teacher, that gentle big sister, is very suspicious.

It's a pity that Sana doesn't have much information about her, so she can only be included in the list temporarily.

In the third strange talk, she has consciously used the "human face" to test it out.

From here, the ghost talk is no longer related to her artificial part, and she no longer needs to use the elimination method to determine the candidate.

According to the results of the test, Tatsuya Kamu, who made up the reason that "hackers attacked a networked projector to create ghost stories", covered up the existence of "human faces", and was on her suspicion list long ago, can directly Listed as key candidates for investigation.

The third person is determined.

As for the last one, she witnessed Homura smashing the glass as a witness, so who else but her?

In this way, she selected four candidates related to the inner world.

In addition, she had already noticed that Yameng and Da were also investigating her, which made the two of them so prominent among the four candidates.

She felt they must have important truths in their hands.

And as a current classmate, it is much more convenient for her to investigate and select them as targets.

Maybe the other two are also in contact with them.

In fact, if she knew the relationship between the four of them, she would know that they all knew each other, and they were relatively close.

Asakura Sana didn't know this yet.

!,&

But it does not prevent her from setting Tatsuya and Yameng as the targets of her next move.

So what value can "human face" have for her to squeeze?

She is an otaku at heart, and she has never considered the option of confronting her face to face.

She has no force value on the one hand, and has social barriers on the other.

Without force value, she will suffer in confrontation, and with social barriers, she instinctively avoids face-to-face conversations.

She just wanted to make a detour in a roundabout way.

"Human face" helped her identify four candidates, and she still hopes to use "human face" for the next step of confirmation.

That's why she thought about how to squeeze its value.

It's a pity that she also doesn't know much about "human face", or the familiar.

All she knew was that this strange thing would appear at the location of the ghost story she posted.

Without a thorough analysis of its behavior pattern, she seems to have no way to squeeze its value.

Besides, the familiar itself brought her a sense of danger, and she didn't want to approach it hastily at all.

At this point in her thinking, she fell into a dead end.

The fact that Fuko made a wish was still not noticed, and one of the two groups of people who were chasing her stopped temporarily on opposite fork roads.

Chapter 33 There is no truth behind the wrong path in pursuit of the truth ([-])

On the forked road to pursue the truth of Fengzi's wish, two groups of people took opposite paths because of the involvement of the familiar.

One of the people who went astray, Asakura Sana, she confirmed that Tatsuya and Amen were related to the other world through the familiar.

And Tatsuya and Ameng, who watched the whole process of the fourth ghost story investigation, also affirmed Sana's suspicion.

Yesterday, the investigative alliance who was kicked out of the factory by Homura finally admitted that the strange story had nothing to do with Sana because they were monitoring Sana, at least verbally.

In order to cover up the situation in the other world, Tatsuya asked Homura to explain and gave Sana an assist.

Without Homura's explanation, the methods of committing the third and fourth ghost stories would not be connected, and they would still have the opportunity to conclude that "the four ghost stories were committed by two different people, and Sana may have only made the first three." A strange talk" as a reason to deny.

As a result, Tatsuya asked Homura to explain it that way, and the same method of committing the crime and Sana's forged alibi cleared her of suspicion.

Of course, she was cleared of suspicion only for the investigative alliance who didn't know the truth at the inner world level.

For Tatsuya and Yameng, they both know that the "human face" is a familiar.

I also know that the third and fourth ghost story crimes were made up by Tatsuya.

Moreover, before the start of the fourth investigation, Tatsuya had already encouraged the investigation alliance to show her cards because of his doubts about Sana, which led to the emergence of the fourth investigation.

As a result, Sana's performance in the fourth investigation now only exacerbated her suspicion in their opinion.

She can use the familiar by posting ghost stories, so has she already had a relationship with the other world?

The disappearance of Fengzi's existence must be related to the other world, so is she the murderer of Fengzi's disappearance?

Based on this kind of thinking, they embarked on another side road opposite Sana.

In this way, the familiar used as a clue to implicate Tatsuya, Ameng and Sana who were looking for the truth of Fuko's disappearance.

It's a pity that the forked road is always the forked road.

The familiar has nothing to do with Fuko's disappearance.

Even the few people at the two ends of the divergent road did not hold the truth of Fengzi's disappearance in their hands.

And if they collide in the middle of this fork, what can they do to gain access to truths that are still buried deep?

At least they all galloped along the side road.

After the collision, you can know the result of the collision.

---

The second day of the investigation happened to be after school on Friday.

Taking advantage of this time, the protagonist group and the investigative alliance gathered in the coffee shop and started another big gathering.

The investigation alliance should summarize yesterday's actions and determine what to do after admitting that Sana has nothing to do with ghost stories.

Tatsuya and Ameng analyzed Sana's suspicion clearly and wanted to push for the next step.

However, the first to speak at the party was not the two parties on the outside and inside.

Instead, it was Shimura Masaki who attended their party for the first time and was still caught between the outer world and the inner world.

"Everyone is here, so I really want to know what happened yesterday?"

He stumbled into the scene of the ghost story yesterday by coincidence, and witnessed a familiar who had nothing to do with his sister.

The reason why he thinks that the familiar has "no relationship at all" with his sister is not because he has any evidence.

It's just that he is absolutely unwilling to admit that the strange-looking human face turned into by the familiar will be the image of his sister.

——On the contrary, it was the girl on the projection, maybe she really looked like a younger sister.

He thought so, so no matter how upset he was about the content of the strange talk, he still gritted his head and asked the investigative alliance.

"Boss, it's the same as the scene you saw when you left the factory yesterday. Originally, the information revealed in the ghost story is consistent with your sister's characteristics, so the creator of the ghost story should know the situation of your sister-chan. Once it is proved that the transfer student is a ghost story Otherwise, she might know about Sister Jiang's situation, but unfortunately, we had to admit yesterday that she had nothing to do with it."

Yuma briefly explained to him the whole story of the fourth investigation.

Shimura met Sana yesterday, but he only saw the scene where she was admitted by others to have nothing to do with the ghost talk.

His brain was still a little unclear, and after Yuma's explanation, he understood the meaning of this scene.

"That is to say, it is impossible for her to know about my sister's situation?"

"According to the logic of the analysis just now, if it is not the creator of the ghost story, then it is true that the situation of the younger sister sauce will not be known. However, the evidence is only a tool to improve the credibility, as long as it is a tool, it can be faked. Even if she proves it with evidence Her innocence does not mean that telling the truth is what the evidence proves. It is up to us whether or not to think she knows about Sister Jiang's situation."

"...Uh, I don't understand. She has evidence, so we can doubt her?"

Shimura's previous strategy to find his sister was to wake up his own memory and use memory as a clue to find it.

After Sana's venomous tongue towards him yesterday, he realized that what he did was more like a meaningless escape.

He only attended the party today to change this situation, but as Yuma explained in depth, he already fainted.

"To put it simply, I suspect that she has falsified the evidence."

"But haven't you been monitoring her? How is she going to fake it?"

"We have no evidence, but this does not affect us to continue to suspect her."

"Yuma, your thoughts make me picky, picky, and deliberately embarrassing others! How is this different from a chess player who can't afford to lose and is unwilling to admit defeat and overturns the entire chessboard?"

"Please call me Wach—boss, calm down and let me explain the difference first."

Shimura didn't have much contact with the transfer student, and he couldn't detect the sense of disobedience from the details of her behavior like Tatsuya and Yuma did.

In other words, most people will not deliberately explore the details of other people's behavior, and only those who are interested in reasoning will pay attention.

Shimura is not good at reasoning. With the thinking of ordinary people, he presupposes that evidence should be believed.

This was exactly the misunderstanding that Yuma wanted to explain to him.

"Originally in criminal investigation, there is a difference between 'presumption of innocence' and 'presumption of guilt'. In 'presumption of innocence', the suspect is prejudged not guilty, that is, the entire criminal investigation process is to find 'suspects' evidence of innocence'. This presumption is more widely used internationally because it embodies humanistic care and conducts criminal investigations more 'from the standpoint of the suspect'."

"But now we just 'stand against the suspect', and then use the logic of 'presumption of innocence' to look at the just-concluded investigation, is it really appropriate? I think we should use the logic of 'presumption of guilt' Look at that investigation logically, that is, predict that the transfer student is a ghost story producer, and turn the investigation process into finding 'evidence of her guilt'."

"This is also the basis for the next step I want to communicate with you. If we can predict that the transfer student is a ghost story producer and determine that the evidence she gave is forged, we should look for evidence until it proves that she is making ghost stories. ’ If there is a consensus on that, then we can continue the investigation against her.”

After a long series of explanations, Yuma explained the reason why he still doubted Sana by using the professional terms of judicial decision.

In the process of listening to his explanation, Shimura could feel that he was not suspicious of the transfer student based on his own preferences.

However, if you don't understand this series of logic, you don't understand it. He only knows that Yuma continues to doubt Sana for a good reason.

"Okay, having said all that, your suggestion is that we need to continue to target transfer students, right?"

"Ignoring the reasons explained below, the part about the action is indeed what I suggest."

"Although I don't understand it very well, but doing this is really a bit..."

"It's really too aimed at Sana-san!"

Other members of the investigation alliance were also involved by Yuma's rhetoric, and even Ya Meng scratched his head.

Excluding the part explaining the reasons, everyone has a feeling about his action plan.

That was the last sentence that Hiiragi Mio concluded—it was too aimed at Sana.

"She is our classmate after all! Even though she may know about Shimura-kun's sister, it is too cruel to judge her classmate with the 'presumption of guilt'! If we treat her like this, what will we do after the incident is over? Get along with her?"

"I agree with Mio's opinion. What we want to investigate is not the murderer. Why should we label her as 'guilty'?"

"Hey hey, I don't care, but since the other two in the rotten girl group don't agree, then I don't agree~"

The rotten girl group, whose way of thinking is closer to sensibility and who has formed a certain friendship with Sana, does not support Yuma's action plan.

Their reasons were more personal likes and dislikes than Yuma's rational analysis.

It was precisely because of this that Yuma was unable to refute because of the friendship between girls.

The issue became stalemate for a while, and the Rotten Girls Group and the Shimura Group formed two distinct factions.

Instead, Shimura, the boss, is torn between his team members and the rotten girls, unsure of what to make.

Yixia in the protagonist group is watching a play, and Yameng is still thinking about Yuma's explanation.

At this time, it was time for Tatsuya to appear on the stage to make a decision on the next action.

"Everyone, can you listen to me first?"
