Chapter 200 Suspect X’s Devotion

Everyone fell silent.

Because they are reasonable and good people, they are pointed at guns.

And those guys who bully the superiors and conceal the inferiors, defy the public and take advantage of people's lives, are bad people. They don't know how to reason, so they get away with it and become lawless madmen within the order.

Qiao Shuya was silent. He wanted to say something else, but it was no longer necessary.

Because good people have become a curse word.

But at this moment, some people began to feel that something was wrong.

Feng Tailang, who was behind Qiao Shuya, silently poked Qiao Shuya and the priest in the waist, and said: "The situation seems to be a bit wrong. The deceased died too quickly, didn't he?"

After all, he is also a detective. Although he is considered an intelligence-type detective and is good at catching mistresses, tracking and finding people, he has been in the reasoning circle for a long time.

"What's wrong? Doesn't cyanide kill in one minute and completely dead in two minutes? It is known as one of the most powerful poisons in the world." The priest returned.

However, the squad leader said calmly: "Because, it is so that your daughter's case can be taken seriously by all the watchmen, and that the guy who is still at large after the accident can get the punishment he deserves. My reasoning is correct, right?

Mrs. Hongcun, what you just said about your daughter’s case is true."

"What do you want to express?" Qiao Shuya also asked.

He suddenly thought of what someone said a few months ago, after the Ginza Devouring Demon incident broke out.

"It should be possible to extend the torture time by more than ten minutes, but it still can't be cured," Joseph said.

This incident was deliberately downplayed and even concealed a lot, so it was a bit difficult to investigate. However, after reading the information found, everyone's faces suddenly became darker.

"Why, why is this happening? Why do they still threaten me like this when Reina was killed by them? I just want justice and want the murderer to pay for his life! Why!"

As soon as the words came out, all the watchers in the audience took a deep breath.

At most, it can only draw a sword to help when there is injustice.

Because of all this, he has long been accustomed to it, even used to it.

"Baccarat?"

"Okay!" Fuutarou rubbed his hands. It seemed that he couldn't wait any longer. He was already thirsty for this order.

"I'm sorry, we didn't bring him back to justice, but the other personnel have been arrested. Waiting for them is the Grand Inquisitor from District 1 to conduct a trial under the People's Federation." After Yoshida Tsumugi finished speaking, he bowed deeply.

"Mrs. Hongcun, take care in the future."

"This is the crux of the matter. From the moment you shout 'dead' to Brother Keqing releasing the Holy Light, it does not exceed one minute. And Brother Keqing's Holy Light is stronger than yours. Logically speaking, even if you are not alive within this time, you can still survive."

It’s better to prolong the pain of the deceased for a few minutes." Fuutarou said.

"Why is this happening? I don't see any hope. I feel like a mountain is pressing down on me. I can't breathe. The entire District 11 seems to be their protective umbrella. Only you watchers, only you who are directly affiliated with the Human League

Watchers, only you can make the decision for me..."

"The only good news is that most of the good people in this world can win the favor of the gods and become watchers." Qiao Shuya said, "If it is a world without gods, what should good people do?"

"Mr. Sakurai, he committed suicide." The squad leader's calm words seemed to have dropped a bomb among the watchmen.



"Aren't you heroes? Aren't you an organization that protects the entire human race? I just want justice. I just want to use the law to judge the murderer and the Sanleng Group..." She finally knocked her head in the park.

"I can't do anything, and my mother can't do anything. Reina was hit and killed in the street, and my mother can't even bring the murderer to justice..." She cried and yelled, "What the hell is this?"

The way of the world! Break the way of the world! Break the way of the world!"

"I was reminded of a famous suspense mystery novel "The Devotion of Suspect X" by Keigo Higashino. In order to protect others, the male protagonist chose to become a suspect and sacrifice himself. Your approach is similar to that of that mystery book.

."

"Also, thoroughly investigate the Sanleng Group, the House of Representatives, the Yakuza and the Metropolitan Police Department, all relevant personnel, and then deal with them one by one according to the People's League Law. Remember, abide by the People's League Law!"

Mrs. Hongcun put on prison uniform and worked on a sewing machine in prison.

But why, with so many people and so many cases, do they want the Watchmen to make the decision...

"What?"

Why do so many people want to be raped? They would rather seek refuge with strange demons and work for them.

"No, actually this is a very common thing. Even among evil people, this is the worst and rubbish kind of evil person. Compared to the evil savior or a certain scumbag boss, they are just rubbish. I don't know how to do it at all.

Angry about this kind of thing." Qiao Shuya said, he was not angry at all about this matter.

"Let's go, let's go home too." Qiao Shuya said, got up and left here.

"I have one last question, why did Mr. Sakurai prefer to commit suicide? Even endure the hellish torture of cyanide for nearly a minute without screaming?" Qiao Shuya finally asked.

"Even if I reported this matter to reporters, other TV stations and media, there was no report and nothing happened. That day, I was blocked in the toilet by the Yakuza..."

Also, the time when her daughter was hit and killed happened about half a month ago, a few days before the 60-degree high temperature in Tokyo.

Some people even didn't know why, and suddenly their whole bodies shivered.

"So, Mrs. Hongcun, that is to say, you originally sent corresponding letters to the association, but did not get the attention of the Watcher Association, so you used such an extreme plan to make us pay attention to this matter?" Qiao Shu

Ya stepped forward and said, "Exchange Mr. Sakurai's death and your original death sentence for those of the Sanleng Group?"

"I think the deceased seemed to have endured the torture of cyanide for nearly a minute while standing, and then fell down when he was completely dead. Why was he able to hold on for nearly a minute? Cyanide would completely block his breathing and block his breathing.

With brain-blood communication, he was able to make sounds during this period, but he chose to hold on..."

"So, why is this happening?"

Even though the squad leader was being held hostage, she adjusted her glasses at this moment, and a captivating light was reflected on them.

"Before the trial, a member of the House of Representatives came to me and threatened me to accompany him. I agreed and went to the hotel with him... However, we got nothing. The Sanleng Group even sent people to smash up my house.

He poured blood on my doorstep and called me every night to threaten me..."

"Wha...what?" Mrs. Hongcun was stunned.

"What I'm angry about is, in District 11, why do good people suffer and why do good people deserve to die?" Qiao Shuya looked at Lao Chen calmly and said.

Her cry was pitiful, but everyone present fell silent.

He gradually understood everything, and the truth was...

At this time, people from the Intelligence Department were also working and began to find the case that Mrs. Hongcun mentioned.

If they were ordinary people and encountered what happened to Mrs. Hongcun, what would they do?

The answer is, there is no solution.

He understood that there is only one truth!



"I know a place where people say things like 'Why should you call the police if you are not a robber?' Since then, the whole world has changed. There are no more brave people, and there are no good people anymore. When you see people falling,

On the road, even if there were nearly a hundred people passing by, they would just glance at everything indifferently, just looking at him to die."

Qiao Shuya said calmly: "Good people deserve to die, and good people should be pointed at guns. What kind of evil is this? And even people like this lady, for the sake of her own justice, want to drag other good people down."

, and even threaten the lives of other good people, just because they are good and reasonable people?"

As soon as this sentence came out, the other watchmen were even more stunned. They looked carefully and saw that the pistol looked real, whether from the front or the side.

"Brother Keqing, are we just going to watch like this?" Fuutarou asked, "Should we do something?"

"Because whether you call the police or an ambulance, you will be blackmailed, and even good people will be made to endure everything they shouldn't have to endure."

"I..." Lao Chen didn't know how to answer this for a moment.

"It's really time to do something. Find out whether the perpetrator is really in jail, or whether he is a substitute and is at large. If so, then capture him and try him under the People's Federation Law!" Qiao Shuya said calmly!

Yes, but everyone knew the anger beneath his calm expression.

Mrs. Hongcun just cried and said: "I have no choice! I really have no choice! Rena was killed, I lost everything, the protection of the Metropolitan Police, the misbehavior of the House of Representatives, and the threat of the Sanleng Group

,I do not know what to do!"

In this incident, the only ones who were unharmed were Brother Long and the watchmen who attended the wedding. A good wedding was basically a hasty affair.

The firearm was picked up by other people on the side. After taking it apart, it turned out that it was indeed a simulated gun. This kind of firearm may have difficulty breaking through the defenses of ordinary people, but the appearance of this game is really similar and it is completely simulated.

"Then there is only one truth, no matter how impossible it is, it is a fact, that is, Mr. Sakurai committed suicide, and Mrs. Hiromura, you are just a collaborator who helped Mr. Sakurai pretend!"



Soon, Mrs. Hongcun, who was originally a walking corpse, came to the interview room, but what she saw was Yuki Yoshida, the girl she had held hostage.

Fuutarou started talking to himself non-stop. He seemed to have guessed something, but he couldn't catch it.

"Ah..." Lao Chen didn't expect that Qiao Shuya looked at the problem from this perspective.

At this time, the reasoning of the famous detective Kogoro Megure pointed directly at Mrs. Hiroshi. Even Mrs. Hiroshi had admitted it and even took out a gun and held the squad leader hostage.

All the watchmen were stunned. How could it be possible that the deceased committed suicide?

The deceased even committed suicide at a wedding held by the Watchmen Association, and deliberately pretended to be a suicide. What was the purpose?

"The real doubt is that Ah Qiao has released the Holy Light as quickly as possible, but the Holy Light has no effect. The watchers present all know that Ah Qiao's Holy Light can heal injuries up to and including severed limbs. To cure it as quickly as possible, even if it is cyanide poisoning, the Holy Light can at least delay death." Yoshida Tsumugi calmly stated his reasoning,

They are not Lord Qingtian, not even county magistrates, they are just a group of ordinary people responsible for fighting strange demons.

The atmosphere at the scene was extremely solemn, even like a depressing volcano.

Mrs. Hongcun was originally a graceful and elegant beautiful woman, but now she seemed crazy. She kept banging her head on the ground, her voice was hoarse, and she completely lost her sense of beauty. The haggard and tortured madness completely broke out. .

"What happened?"

The kid picked up the corpse's nails and found that there were obvious stains on the corpse's index finger, and there was also a faint smell of bitter almonds.

"Good people don't get good rewards, bad people don't get punished, and even bad people can occupy a major part of the cake in this world. Perhaps, human beings are not biological monsters..." Qiao Shuya looked at Old Chen, "But , in my heart, I am more like a devil than a strange devil."

The monitor continued, and finally she sighed: "Also, Mrs. Hongcun, the gun in your hand is a toy gun, right?"

"Something's wrong, something's very wrong..."

Wait, bitter almond flavor?

Cyanide is colorless and odorless. It only smells like bitter almonds when it reacts with human cells. However, that reaction also takes a long time.

However, why would such a thing be asked of the Watchers? They cannot interfere in politics. The Watchers are just pure monster killers, and everything they do is only related to matters related to the monsters.

She was sentenced to two years in prison, and this was because Mr. Sakurai Takahiro was ultimately deemed to have committed suicide.

Are there such lunatics? They deliberately committed suicide at Brother Long's wedding, and what kind of trick was it for?

Like Qiao Shuya and others, they immediately felt that the local plutocrats in District 11 were causing trouble.

Along the way, the atmosphere was very depressing and several people were silent.

"Aqiao, oh, I don't want to say anything. District 11, well, actually this kind of thing happens everywhere." Old Chen touched his panda head, as if he wanted to comfort him. He seemed to be in a bad mood at this time. Qiao Shuya, but I don’t know how to comfort him.

At this time, Mrs. Hongcun angrily pressed the gun against Yoshida Tsumugi's temple and shouted: "I want you watchmen to complete everything I said. I want the illegitimate son of the Sanleng Group to pay for my daughter's life." !Hurry up or I will kill this girl!"

And Higashino kid gradually understood everything. He also discovered the truth. Even the method of this case was based on the method in the famous work "The Devotion of Suspect X" by Keigo Higashino, the famous suspense novelist in District 11.

Because of this incident, Brother Long's grand wedding ended hastily. No one was in the mood for fun anymore. Everyone seemed to be preoccupied with something.

"Ms. Hongcun, someone here wants to visit you." the prison guard said.

"Because, I have cheated on my wife, and Mr. Sakurai Takahiro is Rena's real father..."

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Hiromura, to disappoint you. The person who hit you to death was Iwasaki Ryunosuke. He hid in District 1 to take shelter. Yesterday, he was cleared by the District 1 police because he did not cooperate with the District 1 police's search there.

Magazine, this is a photo." Yoshida Tsumugi took out a photo and placed it in front of Mrs. Hongcun through the glass.

Feelings: They had more than a hundred watchmen just now, and all of them were threatened by this imitation gun.

In the photo, the rich second-generation young man was shot at least a dozen times. He was lying on the ground covered in blood. There were several bloody footprints behind him. He seemed to be trying to escape after being shot. He stretched out his left hand and pointed at the road extending ahead.

, making weird gestures.

"Yes..." She raised her head and looked at Qiao Shuya, "We have no choice but to use this method of death to make you pay attention, so that you can stand up and uphold justice for us... We can't find anyone

Anyone can only find the watchmen of the People's League..."

However, Yoshida Tsumugi, whose skin had come into contact with the muzzle of the gun, understood that this was just a toy gun, to be precise, it was just a simulated gun, and it looked like it could still fire BB bullets.

For a moment, Mrs. Hongcun was stunned. Tears filled the corners of her eyes, slid down her cheeks, and even dripped on the monitor's neck.

"I..." Mrs. Hongcun was stunned and let go of her holding hands. She knelt down on the ground and burst into tears.

The watchmen present seemed to want to take action, but many of them were stopped by other colleagues around them.

Qiao Shuya began to understand why there were so many dense cults in District 11, which were springing up like mushrooms after a rain, and it was impossible to kill them all.

Outside the prison, Qiao Shuya was waiting against the wall.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Sakurai committed suicide, so what is our purpose?" Mrs. Hiromura's gun continued to press against Yoshida Tsumugi's temple, directly sticking it to her head.

At this moment, Mrs. Hongcun panicked. She rushed forward desperately and said: "Watcher, no, no, no!"

"No, Joseph, what would happen if you discovered a person who had just taken cyanide and treated him with holy light as quickly as possible?" Fuutarou said.

Her face already had an expression of despair, like a walking zombie.

Is this very dark? For Lao Chen, it is actually not necessarily true, because he has seen many similar bullying things when he traveled around the world.

The dusk sun shone on the ground, and the dust in the air was clearly visible in the sun. But in front of the jeep, no one could care about such a thing.

However, Higashikata beside Detective Megure was also wondering why this person smelled of bitter almonds so quickly...

For example, she was originally a wealthy wife with a net worth of tens of millions, and her daughter Rena Hiromura was the top student in the girls' junior high school. The originally happy family was almost destroyed because of this incident.

"This is District 11, with a stupid local government, unscrupulous plutocrats and gangsters, and ordinary people who have been suppressed to the point of perversion. This land has no hope and light, only despair and reincarnation." Nakamura branch president said gloomily.

Three days later, Tokyo Women's Prison.

Mrs. Hongcun is not exaggerating. On the contrary, she still has many experiences that she has not told.

"Mrs. Hongcun, stop it." The kidnapped squad leader did not show any fear at this time and sighed slightly.

Only then did Qiao Shuya see him. The president of the Nakamura branch was also here, but he had been hiding and smoking a cigarette and did not participate in it.

"But the deceased, Mr. Sakurai Takahiro, had already taken cyanide for more than two minutes and died for more than one minute when Aqiao released the Holy Light, so the Holy Light was completely ineffective."

After Yoshida Tsumugi left, looking at the photo of the empty magazine across the glass, she lay on the glass and cried bitterly.

"Take it away." Qiao Shuya's expression remained calm, and the other watchmen suddenly felt uncomfortable.

"The pain and wailing of cyanide poisoning are inevitable, but why did Mr. Sakurai not wailed when he was poisoned, but endured the pain and did not fall until death? Even with so many watchmen present, they did not

I found out that someone was also covering for him."

"Huh, I understand..." Qiao Shuya just turned around and said: "Do you have a lawyer? Sue Mrs. Hongcun for crimes such as endangering public security, committing suicide, picking quarrels and provoking trouble, etc., and send her to jail

prison."

Seeing the squad leader come out and seeming to have put down a heavy burden, Qiao Shuya just smiled and said: "I thought of a sentence, for lofty things, it is enough to be close to it. It is happiness enough. This is Keigo Higashino's novel "The Devotion of Suspect X"

"middle."

"Are you talking about me?" The monitor smiled and took the initiative to hold Qiao Shuya's hand.

"No, I'm just talking about myself." Qiao Shuya returned.

Sorry, the scheduled upload seems to have gone wrong again. I don’t know whether it’s because I forgot to upload it or it’s a bug.
