First of all, my eyes were attracted by the patches of red.
Half of the quilt was stained red, there were blood stains next to the pillow, and blood stains on the floor.
By the way, the pieces of internal organs were put away so as not to scare them.
The young man surrounded by blood was pale, his eyes were melancholy, and he looked like he was in a daze. Blood was constantly flowing down his lips.
"This event...cough..."
"Ahem...it's a conspiracy..."
"The purpose is to...ahem...kill those three prisoners..."
"The murderer...cough cough cough..."
The black-haired boy held the quilt tightly with one hand, as if he could get more strength from the quilt to support him after saying these words. Every word he said made him vomit blood.
"Stop talking..." Hattori Heiji stretched out his hand, but didn't know where to put it.
His hands were trembling slightly.
I watched helplessly as a friend with such excellent reasoning seemed to be dying.
He was flustered and anxious inside.
"That Da Cai San... cough cough cough... has not disappeared..."
"He's always been among everyone...he's...ahem"
The young man managed to finish these words and fainted again.
Everyone: So...who is he?
Who is the murderer?
If Tsushima Shuji hadn't fainted as if he was close to death, they would have wanted to shake him awake immediately and ask him to tell his reasoning immediately.
"Tsushima...have you discovered it yet..." Hattori Heiji clenched his fists.
"As expected of Tsushima! Someone who is better at reasoning than Kudo and I!" He said with a smile.
so……
Such a powerful Tsushima...
It must be okay.
"Tsushima has already told us so much... The next reasoning depends on us." Hattori Heiji stood up and spoke firmly.
Edogawa Conan on the side also had a determined expression.
"Who...are you with?" Mr. Samezaki couldn't help but ask.
Hattori Heiji: ...Of course Kudo...
Ah no.
"Of course it's Uncle Mouri." He pointed at Kogoro Moori.
"Next, let us join forces with Tsushima to find out the truth!" Hattori Heiji said.
The unconscious boy on the bed was still frowning, and a blush gradually appeared on his pale face.
"This is..." Edogawa Conan reached out and touched the other person's hand.
"It's so hot." He looked worried.
"Tsushima-san is having a high fever." He raised his head and said to Toru Amuro and others.
"You should use ice cubes to cool down... But as for ice cubes, Master Shuji might..." Midorikawa frowned.
With Kaa's current behavior, even using ice cubes to cool him would kill him.
"I'll leave it to you to find the murderer. Leave Master Shuji to us." Toruya Amuro frowned and said to Hattori Heiji.
"Okay." Hattori Heiji nodded.
He will find out the truth soon, and then...
Wait until Tsushima Shuji wakes up, and then tell him the specific reasoning process.
"It's useless for us to hang around here, let's look for clues first." Mr. Samezaki said.
"Perhaps the large number of people will affect Mr. Tsushima." Mr. Jingai agreed.
…
"What do you want to do next?" After everyone left, Toru Amuro put the water glass next to Tsushima Shuji and asked.
"Waiting and death embrace each other." The young man showed a satisfied smile in his confusion.
Toru Amuro & Mu Midorikawa:……
"By the way, your state has been a bit wrong since the beginning." Toru Amuro suddenly turned to Midorikawa Muichi.
I will always...be in a trance unconsciously.
His face was also very pale, and there was even fear left in his eyes.
Others may attribute this panic to the tragic situation before Tsushima Shuji.
But Kaa was even able to answer their questions in a relaxed and cheerful manner.
so……
Why exactly?
It seems like...
Cong Jingguang sat beside Kaa's bed...
It was quiet for a while after that...
Toru Amuro recalled.
Did Kaa do anything to Jingguang at that time?
Not really.
"I just suddenly felt..." Midorikawa thought for a while.
"It's so cold." He said with a slightly wry smile.
Fear, malice, and... coldness and loneliness seemed to come from the depths of the soul.
For a moment, he felt as if he was being targeted by something, something too powerful to resist, which shocked his soul.
It's not murderous, just a dull gaze without any emotion.
Even though the feeling of being watched soon disappeared, the remaining fear and coldness still remained.
But Midorikawa Mu could no longer remember what he was being targeted for.
"Why is it cold?" Toru Amuro asked doubtfully.
There was a voice outside the door.
"Here we come." At the same time, the boy on the bed also sounded expectant.
There was a knock on the door.
Toru Amuro went to open the door.
There was no one outside the door.
He looked doubtfully at the corridors on both sides and closed the door after confirming that there was no one there.
"It seems someone couldn't bear it any longer." Toru Amuro said while changing into a pair of white gloves.
"I just want to lure you away." Tsushima Shuji sat up from the bed and began to unbutton his shirt casually.
"Do you want to change clothes?" Toru Amuro bit her gloves and was stunned for a moment.
"I don't really want to keep wearing this dirty shirt..." Shuji Tsushima sighed when he unbuttoned the third button.
The exposed chest area was also wrapped with a snow-white bandage.
Even though the shirt he was wearing had a wet blood stain on his chest, the bandage on his chest was still white and dry.
"Forget it, when the time comes..." He thought for a moment and stopped unbuttoning the buttons.
"But those things you vomited..." Toru Amuro had a complicated expression.
He was referring to the pieces of internal organs.
Can a normal person survive if he vomits like this?
"Is it really okay?" he couldn't help but ask.
In case Kaa died suddenly, he could be prepared to face Gin in advance.
So as expected, it was better to call Butler Tanaka to send a helicopter to take Kaa away.
Compared to slapping the police in the face, Kaa's life is more important.
"Ah, it's okay, it will be fine soon." Tsushima Shuji blinked and said casually.
Anyway...
It's not a problem.
"There's no need to call Butler Tanaka, it will be fine soon."
As long as Mr. Jingjing moves faster.
"Doesn't it hurt?" Midorikawa asked.
"It hurts, it hurts so much that I thought I was going to die..." the young man said quietly with lowered eyes.
"Then you still..." You're so harsh on yourself.
Toru Amuro couldn't help but interrupt.
"I lied to you~" The young man raised his face and sounded excited.
"It doesn't hurt at all~"
"So there is no way to achieve death at all." He sighed faintly.
The boy's pursuit of death has never changed, and his obsession with so-called death is even serious enough to be considered pathological.
Toru Amuro and Mu Midorikawa once again realized this deeply.
Shuji Tsushima, or Kao——
Even if he is alive, the meaning of his life seems to be just to pursue death.
But……
But people can't help but want to know what caused him to be like this.
And whether——
How can anyone hold back such a morbid boy who is chasing death?
"No, nothing." Tsushima Shuji shook his head to deny their inner thoughts.
Whether it's past experiences or people who can hold him back.
The only things that made me what I am today are my past self and my current self.
As for holding on...
Could it be that you want to stop me?
But--
People should have the right to choose their own death, right?
rather than being killed.
…
Toru Amuro and Mu Midorikawa simultaneously remembered the text message Gin had sent them.
[Don't try to stop Kaa from doing anything]
[Don’t think you can make Kaa stop committing suicide]
