Chang Wei, you still say you don't know martial arts?
When Ikeda Chikako heard the other party say this, her brows furrowed slightly, and she said, "Who is Chang Wei? I don't understand what you're saying."
"You just said you haven't learned martial arts? How do you explain your dodging just now?" Baishi Hui asked.
Ikeda Chikako explained, "I haven't learned martial arts, but I've learned some self-defense techniques!!"
"Your mouth is really stubborn! Let's see how long you can keep being stubborn?" Baishi Hui saw that she was still arguing and was too lazy to talk to the other party.
He raised his fist and punched.
As expected, Ikeda Chikako dodged. She pretended to be panicked and said, "What are you doing?"
Seeing that the other party ignored her and instead attacked more fiercely.
After dodging a few times, Ikeda Chikako suddenly laughed in anger, "You want to fight? Then I'll accompany you!"
She stopped pretending and directly started fighting back!
She had to let this kid know that there are always people better than you, and there is always a higher sky!!
After seven moves, Ikeda Chikako's chest was hit by three punches in succession.
She sobered up instantly and said in a panic, "Stop hitting, stop hitting, I admit I killed the person!!"
Seeing that the other party admitted her crime, Baishi Hui stopped and said, "Why?"
"He was the one who asked me out..." Ikeda Chikako rubbed her chest and said with a wronged expression, "He said he had something important to tell me, and then suddenly took out an axe and tried to kill me... I had no choice but to fight back reasonably!!"
"Reasonable counterattack?" Baishi Hui stared at Ikeda Chikako and suddenly remembered that this Ikeda Chikako seemed to have an unusually good attitude towards Ran, and even generously offered to teach her how to write novels.
Could this be a generous act done by someone who was arrogant and plagiarized others' works?
Impossible!!
Thinking of this, a bold guess appeared in Baishi Hui's mind!
He immediately said, "Vermouth."
As soon as he said the name of this liquor, Baishi Hui noticed a flash of surprise in Ikeda Chikako's eyes. Coldness burst forth from her eyes, and a strong killing intent surged towards him!
Sure enough, he guessed correctly!
This person was not Ikeda Chikako at all, but Vermouth in disguise.
No wonder she had such a good attitude towards Ran, no wonder her character had changed so much!
"Want some?" Baishi Hui turned around and took a bottle of Vermouth from the storage shelf, which was also known as Vermouth wine.
"..." Vermouth, disguised as Ikeda Chikako, was stunned for a moment. Only then did she realize that the other party was talking about the drink, not recognizing her.
The killing intent in her eyes gradually disappeared.
But... what a coincidence? There just happens to be a bottle of Vermouth here?
Baishi Hui calmly poured a glass of wine for the other party and said, "Good wine delivered by the Suzuki people this morning... Have a taste."
Vermouth realized that the other party was trying to ease the tense relationship between them, so she took it.
Only after seeing the other party pick up the wine bottle and drink it down did she feel a little relieved.
"Speak, what's going on." Baishi Hui signaled the other party to start her performance.
Vermouth took a small sip, using these few seconds to adjust her state.
She sighed and said with a sad expression, "This afternoon, when I returned to my room, I found a note shoved under the door. Someone asked me to meet them in the small woods behind the house."
As Vermouth spoke, she also took out the note to prove that she wasn't lying.
She said helplessly, "After I went to the small woods, I saw Takahashi. He said I plagiarized Atsuko's work and that I killed Atsuko."
"That's just nonsense! If I really did that, why didn't Atsuko report me? She had the original copy!"
"It was clearly him harassing Atsuko, and Atsuko, unable to bear the harassment, ultimately chose to commit suicide."
"Not only did he not believe it, but he also came at me with an axe... Then I was forced to fight back, and I didn't want to kill him!"
As she spoke, she started crying, sobbing uncontrollably.
This left Baishi Hui completely dumbfounded.
Tears flowed instantly, without any hesitation.
Is this the strength of a movie queen?
Amazing, amazing... and Vermouth's ability to make things up is not just strong, it's extraordinary!
If he hadn't known what was going on, he might have been fooled by her.
Baishi Hui saw through it but didn't expose her, giving her a way out, and said, "So that's how it is... Then it really can't be blamed on you."
"It's good that you can understand." Vermouth gently wiped away her tears with her finger and said with red eyes, "I just won the Newcomer Award recently... If I get caught up in a murder scandal now, my future will be ruined."
"So I didn't dare tell anyone."
"That guy Takahashi, in order to kill me, even prepared a bandaged monster doll to escape blame, so I just took it and used it."
"Hmm, now I understand." Baishi Hui nodded repeatedly, very amazed by her ability to stitch things together.
Making the story perfectly seamless!
It's estimated she hasn't done this kind of thing less often before.
Isn't that why people say she's a professional?
Without such a quick-witted mind, she probably wouldn't be able to make a living in the intelligence field.
"Shirashi-kun, this matter... can you keep it a secret for me?" Vermouth asked with a pitiful look.
She didn't want to be exposed like this yet.
"Don't worry, I won't tell." Baishi Hui said, "I'm doing this just to protect the safety of my friends! As long as you don't harm them, I won't interfere with the grievances between you."
"Thank you so much." Vermouth's tone was full of gratitude, and she also breathed a long sigh of relief inwardly.
As long as her identity wasn't exposed, that was fine.
...
After returning from the interrogation room to the living room, Baishi Hui saw that everyone else's eyes were focused on him. He shrugged and said, "There's nothing to be found, let's just wait for the police."
Ayako said worriedly, "No... the phone calls won't go through, someone cut the phone line."
"Since that's the case, just in case, everyone should still not go out tonight and stay in their rooms! If anything happens, just shout, and we'll go down the mountain first thing tomorrow morning." Baishi Hui suggested. Since he had figured out what was going on, he felt relieved.
Everyone agreed to this.
Just as everyone was going upstairs one after another, Conan suddenly walked up to Baishi Hui and said, "Shirashi, I found piano wire on the upstairs balcony!"
"This wasn't done by a transient killer, but by someone among us!"
As he spoke, his tone became uncontrollably excited.
After all, he had been busy for so long, and finally made some progress. How could he not be excited?
"Alright, stop investigating." Baishi Hui patted Conan's head and said, "What if you really find something? Isn't that forcing the killer to kill?"
"Let's wait until tomorrow morning, after the police arrive."
Yukiko, disguised as Shinichi, also nodded in agreement, saying, "I also think we shouldn't investigate for now, let's talk about it after everyone is safe!"
"But—" Conan didn't want to stop like this, he still wanted to say something, but "Shinichi" interrupted him unceremoniously, "There's no 'but', you have to listen to me, otherwise I won't bring you next time."
Seeing this, Conan ultimately didn't say anything.
He began to regret his insufficient ability.
Although he had been warned beforehand, he still couldn't stop the killer from killing.
If his reasoning ability was stronger, this wouldn't have happened!!.
Just as Baishi Hui was about to return to his room, Ran and Sonoko suddenly came out of their room holding pillows and blankets.
Sonoko said with a scared look, "Hui, Ran and I are both a little scared... Can we sleep with you tonight?"
Didn't I give you a gun? Who are you afraid of? Others being scared is more like it! I think you're just craving my body!... Baishi Hui muttered inwardly, but didn't foolishly expose Sonoko's little thoughts!
He nodded and said, "Okay, come in!"
"Great! Ran, let's go!" Sonoko eagerly called Ran to enter the room.
Just as Baishi Hui was about to close the door, he found that someone else wanted to come in!
"Wait a minute, Shirashi-kun." Just then, "Ikeda Chikako" and Suzuki Ayako came upstairs, also holding pillows and blankets.
"I don't think it's safe for us two girls downstairs, can we come in together?" "Ikeda Chikako" gave a very sufficient reason.
"Of course you can, come in." Baishi Hui naturally knew Vermouth's thoughts.
She simply wanted to spend more time with Ran.
"Wait a minute, we're scared too, let us in too!" Ota Katsu and Hiroki Kadotani saw this and also wanted to go inside.
"It's full, no more room to sleep!" Baishi Hui said exasperatedly, "You guys sleep in the corridor! If anything happens, knock on the door. If you knock randomly when nothing's wrong, I'll knock you to death!!"
After speaking, he closed the door.
This left Ota Katsu and Hiroki Kadotani angry but unable to speak, so they could only huddle together and slink back to their rooms.
...
Sharing a room with a girl or an orphaned girl can easily lead to some blood-pumping scenarios.
A man and two women in one room, with some effort, maybe something could happen.
A man and multiple women staying in one room, unless it's an adult film, nothing else needs to be done.
As soon as Baishi Hui returned to the room, he saw "Ikeda Chikako" actively approaching Ran to get close, the Suzuki sisters started talking about how long it had been since they slept together, and "Shinichi" dragged Conan by the ear into the bathroom, most likely to start safety education again.
Well, everyone was paired up, only he was alone.
Let's lie down and sleep!
Baishi Hui stopped thinking too much, spread out the blanket, and went to sleep!
Just as he had covered himself with the blanket, he saw Sonoko making her bed next to him. She pretended to be scared and said, "Hui, I'm so scared! Can I sleep next to you?"
"Yes!" Baishi Hui liked enthusiastic and proactive girls like Sonoko.
If you're not proactive, and I'm not proactive, then how can there be a story?
"Hehe~~ Then I won't be polite." Sonoko lay down happily. She also moved closer to Baishi Hui, turned around and stared at him, saying with eyes full of joy, "I never thought I'd be able to sleep with Hui... It's like a dream."
"Don't get so close." Baishi Hui looked at Sonoko, who was getting closer, and reminded her, "What if I can't control myself and do something bad later? That wouldn't be good!"
"What bad thing do you want to do?" Sonoko's eyes lit up even more when she heard this.
With so many people watching, she felt that the other party wouldn't dare do anything out of line.
Seeing that Sonoko was provoking him like this, Baishi Hui certainly wouldn't back down!
Immediately, he reached his hand into Sonoko's blanket and grabbed her beautiful leg.
The tenderness of the touch, the bouncy texture, amazing, amazing~~~
It's easy to get addicted!
Sonoko was startled, then her face turned red. She didn't expect the other party to be so bold, which made her chicken out instantly. She whispered shyly, "Th-This... Here... There are many people, if someone sees—"
"Don't worry, the blanket is covering us, others won't find out." Baishi Hui directly interrupted her and said, "If you feel it's unfair, you can touch me back too! Is that fair?"
These words made Sonoko both shy and excited, and she said, "Hui, you're so bad... I really like it!"
With an excited heart and trembling hand, she also reached her hand over and touched his abs!
Wow, so fair!!
