For a moment, Yin Tate Ousuke was completely confused——
Is the murderer the "Last Word Girl" herself?
"So in the end, you should commit suicide?"
Completely unable to understand what Kyoko-san said, Gindate Ousuke blurted out the question.
"No, this is a murder."
Miss Kyoko denied:
"And the person she wants to kill is..."
Saying this, Miss Kyoko stretched out the fingers of her right hand and drew a circle in the air in front of her as if casting magic. Finally, as the circle she drew became smaller and smaller, she finally pointed at a target——
Hidden Ousuke.
"You, Mr. Ozuke!"
Miss Kyoko pointed and confirmed.
"I?"
It was obvious that everything was in chaos, and Ousuke Gintate screamed out in surprise. Then the whole thing seemed to change in Ousuke Gintate's eyes, and at the same time huge doubts arose in his mind.
"Compared to the statement that the media has been talking about like 'the school administrator who was on the spot wanted to kill the junior high school girls', in fact it is just the opposite."
Gao Yuan couldn't help but said:
"The girl jumped down aiming at you. She wants to die with you."
Hearing this, Yin Tate Ousuke looked even more confused and confused. He didn't even respond to the inquiry, but fell into deep suspicion——
"You met her once before coming to school as a school administrator!"
Seeing the puzzled expression on Yin Tate Ousuke's face, Miss Kyoko couldn't help but continue to explain:
Speaking of this, Yin Tate Ousuke finally recalled that when he was working at the "Infinite Ancient Bookstore" before, he heard the store manager mention the girl who often came to the store. When the store manager talked about her, he mentioned
The peculiarity is that the wallet used by the girl has a dragonfly pattern.
"You thoughtfully recommended that book to her at that time, and that book must be the type she likes."
Miss Todayko continued:
"The 'Last Word Girl' has been pretending, not wanting anyone to know what kind of books she really likes to read, but now the bookstore clerk has recommended a book to her that she will definitely like, and she feels that her hidden heart is being
Exposed."
"Is it because I accidentally recommended a book to her?"
With a bitter look on his face, Yin Tate Ousuke said in despair.
"You don't have to blame yourself."
Miss Jinzi comforted her:
"Although this may be a blow to her, after all, teenagers and girls who have just entered adolescence will always look at surrounding affairs self-centered. For you, this is just a well-intentioned recommendation, but in
In the eyes of a sensitive girl, this makes her feel that you are peeking into her heart."
"Originally, if it was over after recommending books, this incident would not have happened."
Gao Yuan couldn't help but sigh:
"As long as you don't go to the bookstore, you won't meet the clerk who is trying to pry into your heart. This is what the girl must have thought at the time, so after that, she never went to the bookstore where you worked. But...
"
"I showed up at school..."
Hearing this, Yin Tate Ousuke finally realized the most serious problem.
"At this point, it's so unfortunate for both of you!"
In this regard, Miss Kyoko said with some regret:
"Obviously I no longer go to that bookstore, but that man actually came to the school where I go to school every day! To Mr. Osuke, she is just a girl buried in the school uniform, but it is different for her
——A man who tried to peek into his own heart has now become the school administrator of his own school and appears next to him every day."
"It should be said that it is sensitivity or excessive self-awareness...but this is the psychology of boys and girls of this age. They are self-centered and feel that everything that happens around them is aimed at themselves."
Gao Yuan couldn't help but said:
"Seeing through his own preferences and recommending books to himself, and also resigning from the bookstore and coming to his school - this man is very suspicious, and he has some plans for me... Probably, in the eyes of the girl, this is how she views this matter
of."
"Originally, this is not a big deal. As long as there is an opportunity, the misunderstanding will be solved sooner or later. But the terrible thing is that the girl is out of place in the class because she does not want others to pry into her heart. In addition, due to family reasons
, she has no one to communicate with at all.”
Miss Kyoko said with emotion:
"Therefore, all these doubts gradually took root in the girl's heart. Since then, she has been restless. Every time she sees you on campus, it is a frightening encounter for her.
"As long as that person disappears - that's what the girl probably thought. With no one to stop her, the girl's small murderous intention gradually began to expand. Finally, it reached the point where she couldn't restrain it, so she began to plan
How should I kill you?"
After Miss Jinzi said this, Gao Yuan continued to add:
"However, if she kills you, her inner world may really be made public when the police investigate the motive of the crime. In this case, she might as well just disappear. Therefore, the event that is finally presented to us becomes
It was a bizarre incident like a girl who committed suicide by jumping off a building and accidentally hit the administrator of the school building."
"The above is our reasoning on the whole matter."
Miss Kyoko concluded.
As for this result, Hidate Osuke, who was involved in the incident, could not let go for a long time and remained silent, not knowing what to say.
In the evening, the police released the investigation results on the matter. Although the identities of the two parties were not announced, the suspicion of being the school administrator was cleared. The whole incident ended with the girl committing suicide by jumping off the building.
It accidentally hit the school administrator and the case was closed.
Faced with such an ending, only Ousuke Gindate, who was involved, and Miss Takato and Kyoko, who were detectives, knew that such a public report was a decision made by Ousuke Gindate after discussing with the police——
Even if he knows the truth about this matter, because he is a twelve-year-old girl, the other party does not need to bear criminal responsibility. In addition, Yin Tate Ousuke does not want to expose to the public the thoughts that the girl desperately wants to hide, so he chooses
Bury this matter completely in darkness...
…
"Huh? What if it's not suicide?"
The day after the young girl Hazuki Yage jumped off the building, she was in a coffee shop, cupping Kyoko and looking at the junior high school girl wearing the uniform of a Sakuraba female student in front of her, she couldn't help but ask this question.
"Yes."
The girl in front of her was about thirteen or fourteen years old, with a face as delicate and perfect as a doll, and her long black hair was slightly curled near the ends, showing soft wavy lines.
She showed a slightly cold but charming smile and said seriously to Miss Kyoko:
"If Song of Songs hadn't committed suicide."
"But, if you say that, is there any reason?"
Slightly embarrassed, Miss Kyoko tilted her head and asked in confusion:
"After all, for an incident like jumping off a building, if it is a man-made murder, the police should be able to easily find the suspicion. But looking at it now..."
"It's because of the 'crying widow'."
The girl was a little serious and said something that made Miss Kyoko look confused:
"Before today's incident, I saw the figure of the 'weeping widow' next to Ya Ge..."
"Please wait!"
A little loudly, Miss Kyoko interrupted the girl's continued words——
"The 'weeping widow' you mentioned, could it be..."
"Yes, just as you thought, detective."
The girl showed a slightly mysterious smile and said lightly:
