knight starts with empty me

Chapter 148
three days ago!
When director Tanaka's auditions were over, Aimi Yamano came to the park and sat on the lawn where Nana Asahina had sat.

In fact, Amy always knew that she was a bad girl in the eyes of others. Since her father had an affair and abandoned the family, her and her mother's home had been destroyed.

Poor families even have school uniforms donated to them by their neighbors. When the classmates are all wearing bright and decent clothes, but she can only wear loose and worn clothes that look unkempt because they don’t fit. other people.

Since when did it go bad?
Was it that afternoon when you went home crying with your school uniform in your hands, and when you told your mother it didn't fit you were severely reprimanded?When she was young, Aimi hadn't felt her father's love for a long time, but at that time she felt as if she was about to lose her mother's love.

That's the time!If her parents don't love her, who is she worthy of being loved by?

So she became a gangster with nothing to do, the kind of bad student and bad girl who wandered the streets late at night, smoked, fought, and bullied her classmates; Guilty, but she seems to be on the road of hurting others and can't return.

Until I met that girl named Asahina Nana...

When I said that to the girl in the afternoon, she also regretted it afterwards. This kind of words is undoubtedly like saying: Your teacher died a while ago, then you are really lucky, and you can easily pass the audition for this kind of topic up!

If you say something like this, you should be beaten, right? !

When Nana approached her for the second time, Amy was ready to be punched, what would happen if she was beaten up, it was an apology.

but……

"...I have something to tell you."

She saw the girl in front of her lower her fist, and held back her anger and resentment to say such words.What she saw in front of her was a kind heart!
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that, I'm really sorry..." So she apologized sincerely.

I thought that I had used coldness and violence to make my heart as hard as a stone, but it was easily melted like this.

Aimi Yamano carefully organized her clothes, like a good student, she took out a sapphire ring from her pocket, although it was very beautiful, it was just a toy made of plastic.

It was something she got at a summer camp a long time ago, and she has kept it till now.

"Tomorrow is my mother's birthday, give this to her, and we will make up..."

She wanted to go home, so she went back to the poor little house under the setting sun, and pushed open the thin wooden door.

However, on that day, she saw the most terrifying sight in her life - when the door opened, she saw an identical Amy!

It's just another gentle version of me, cooking dinner with my mother, getting along warmly.

But Amy herself felt great anger and fear, "Who are you! Don't touch my mother!"

She saw that gentle 'Aimei' saying something in her mother's ear, and gradually, even her mother changed, looking at herself with very strange eyes.

Then my mother threw away the freshly prepared dishes, and the food spilled on the tatami, and then she walked towards herself holding a blunt weapon.

Amy could not utter a word, nor move.It's the guy with the same face as me who is playing tricks!A woman with a blunt weapon came forward step by step.

There were crystal tears in Amy's eyes, and she opened her mouth hard to make a final sound.

"Mother!……"

…………

Bunkyo Ward, 10:37 a.m.

Audition location for director Ryujiro Tanaka's production.

According to the information provided by Yiyi Kaoru, Higashino Ryusuke and Godai rushed here almost non-stop, which is the place where Nana interviewed a few days ago.

Kaoru came out of the crew building to greet them, holding a notebook to record the case in his hand.

"How's the situation?" Higashino Ryusuke asked straight to the point without extra greetings.

A brief introduction to the case immediately began: "...Since three days ago, the headquarters has received incidents of suspected wasp riots causing death, and they have begun to appear one after another from Kyoto, Saitama, and Jiang City around Tokyo. As for the victims, nine people died every day before, but eight people have died today, and after investigation, all of these people were working in the Tanaka crew or had participated in the interview for the new play."

And Godai and Higashino had already moved closer to the notebook, and saw the record on the characteristics of the deceased: [The wounds of the deceased were all on the right forearm, and some kind of animal body tissue was attached near the wound. ]
"Mr. Yiyi, wasps don't leave tail needles, right? What is this animal tissue?" Wudai asked. As an adventurer, he still knows a little about the wasps that he may encounter during his wild adventures.

"Yesterday, Mrs. Enokida sent the relevant substances to Mrs. Enokida for investigation, and the result is that the closest component to that kind of thing should be the stinging cells of jellyfish." Kaoru replied.

"Jellyfish... Sure enough!" Higashino Ryusuke was completely sure, "This time it's Gulangi who recovered from the coffin of darkness, the jellyfish Zeragu! And the one I mentioned earlier is called Kabe Rin' Lin Duo to die ' girl, it is likely that the real she has been killed, and now it is only the person pretended by Gurunji!"

"Is she the real murderer?" Yiyi's brows were tightly knit together, "But what is her crime pattern? Every time there are nine people..."

Higashino Ryusuke also pondered this question. He remembered that it seemed to be mentioned in the novel that jellyfish kills according to the order of traffic lights. Jellyfish target.

"Can you try to start with the color." Higashino Ryusuke suggested.

"Color...!" Kaoru suddenly came to his senses, and quickly turned over the recorded list of victims. He looked at the names over and over again, his eyes gradually brightened, "Miyazaki, Aoyama, Kimura, Kitahara..."

Even Wu Dai gradually figured it out: "Comparing the sound and color of the name, do you add black and white to the colors of the rainbow? It happens to be nine people!"

Ryusuke was stunned. Although it was still colorful, it was different from the modus operandi in the novel. The modus operandi had become more colorful. It seems that it was because he wanted to participate in the Kikiru game of Jiulang Mountain Group Gu Langji, so did the modus operandi change?
"Wait!" He remembered that Kaoru said that there were only eight dead people found today, "That guy's murder count today is one less!"

"I've compared the list of the dead today. There are nine colors, and the only difference is cyan. Who could it be?"

"Ryujie-san, the girl Nana mentioned is called Yamano Aimi, Yamano...but Yamano's pronunciation is yamano, it has nothing to do with cyan..."

"No," Kaoru shook his head suddenly, and said, "The other pronunciation of Yamano, さんやsanya, is very similar to the English cyan."

The answer was ready to come out, Higashino Ryusuke thought of it almost instantly based on the content in the novel.

"The next one is Aimi Yamano's mother!"

[Explanation of the rules of killing jellyfish: For example, yellow (KI I RO) in Japanese, while Kimura (KI MU RA) includes the pronunciation (KI). 】

　The three Gurangi in the Coffin of Darkness seem to have the ability to mimic human beings like Zerg. The jellyfish has clearly turned into a human with exactly the same appearance, and the other two have replaced the original human beings through bribery and disfigurement. , if you look at it this way, maybe the lion and the other one may not have exactly the same appearance directly.

　　However, for the sake of convenience in this book, it is uniformly set that they can change into exactly the same appearance, and then replace others.

　　By the way, what is the last Gurangi? After reading the novel, I saw jellyfish and lions. I didn’t see any species of the Gurangi that was almost the background board.
