"What?" The astonished Ota Katsuki stood up directly from the sofa, while the girls beside him looked at the inconspicuous fireplace in the corner of the living room in horror. They never dreamed that such a result would happen.

Because in the morning, everyone searched room by room, even the kitchen closet, but who can imagine that a place like a fireplace can be used to hide a corpse.

Under Suzuki Ayako's pale face, her lips trembled slightly: "Is Chikako's body really in the fireplace?"

Ogata expected everyone's surprise and shock in his heart. He looked at everyone who cast doubtful eyes and said slowly: "I found a lot of black granular objects on the hair mask and scalp of the corpse. , determined to be carbon...and these carbons should be the same as the black stains on the surface of the inner wall of the fireplace."

"In addition, I found carbon substances in the ears and nostrils of the deceased. It was definitely not accidentally contaminated with this carbon, but was in a nearly closed space, resulting in inherent contact. The head and neck of the deceased You should have seen the cut wounds. Under my autopsy test, the angle of cut to determine the fatal wound is not swiping from top to bottom, but sliding from left to right... This is because In a small space, there is simply not enough distance to swing the knife."

Although everyone didn't understand Ogata's words, one thing was clear, that is, Chikako's body was indeed in the fireplace.

"I need Masaru Ota's help to take Chikako's body out of the fireplace. Because the body changes very quickly, especially under special circumstances, it will have a direct impact on the subsequent detailed autopsy work."

Emotionally, he looked at Masaru Ota with an ugly face and a resisting expression with a smile on his face.

"Do you really want me to help?" Ota Katsuki was crying. He wanted to wave his hands and refuse, but there were so many girls watching in front of him.

Ogata nodded seriously: "Don't worry, you just need to climb to the chimney on top of the fireplace and untie the rope that tied the corpse."

"Want this handsome guy to climb the chimney?" Ota Katsuki wondered if Ogata was deliberately punishing himself, because this would definitely damage his image.

"Only your athletic ability is the most outstanding here, so I ask you."

Hearing Ogata's words, Katsuo Ota subconsciously looked at Kakutani, who had a beer belly, and Ryoichi Takahashi, whose belly could hold a baby. Indeed, among these men, only himself had the most well-proportioned figure.

......

Ota Katsuki held a flashlight and used a ladder to climb towards the chimney close to the second floor. Because the roof of the villa is not designed as a parallel plane, the chimney is only directly above the living room and is on the same level as the guest rooms on the second floor.. ....

The mobile phones of Ogata and Ota Katsuki are both in the call state, and the two can communicate directly.

"I've reached the top of the chimney." Masaru Ota's voice came out of Ogata's cell phone.

Ogata said to him, "Use a flashlight to illuminate the inside of the chimney and find something like a rope."

"Oh." Ota Katsuki replied, and then there was a rustling noise from the phone.

Ogata turned around and said to Suzuki Ayako and Xiaolan, "You better be mentally prepared for a while." He worried that the headless female corpse would be too shocking to these girls who were still in school, so he quickly reminded them.

"Understood, cousin." Xiaolan nodded obediently.

Just as Sonoko and her sister were about to express their views, Ogata's cell phone suddenly heard a piercing scream.

"Really...really...there are dead bodies..." Ota Katsuki stammered, panicked and shouted into the phone.

Sonoko and Suzuki Ayako's skin turned crisp, and their complexions changed slightly.

"Did you see the rope?" Ogata asked calmly.

"I see..." Ota Katsushi replied nervously and terrified.

Ogata took the mobile phone, walked to the fireplace, and ducked in. With the help of the light of the mobile phone, he saw the rickety corpse less than one meter from the ground, just avoiding people who could catch it directly from the outside. This distance to the inside.

"Cut the rope."

"...Okay." The other party replied hastily.

With the cooperation of the two, Ogata picked up the female corpse with his hands. He didn't want to trouble anyone at first, but if it fell from a certain distance, the corpse would cause some collision damage.

The whole living room was unusually quiet. In the shot of Kakutani Hiroki's camera running normally, Ogata appeared holding a headless female corpse...

Looking at the clothes and figure on the corpse, although it was scary and uncomfortable, everyone recognized that this was Chikako Ikeda who was drinking and chatting with them last night.

......

The body of Chikako Ikeda was found, and Ogata's body was stained with a lot of black ash, making him look a bit embarrassed, but his self-confidence completely covered up these things.

Seeing Ota Katsuki come back, Ogata thanked him and returned to the topic.

"The body of the deceased was found from the fireplace. I think everyone is curious why it is in such a place. The head was found in the woods in the suburbs not far from the villa."

Everyone's eyes or expressions have verified Ogata's statement.

"Let's take a look at the deceased's head. I have observed that on the outside of her scalp, on the surface we can see, some pores have obviously shrunk. This is because the deceased still maintained a certain kind of excitement at the moment of death. , or a state of tension. People who are killed in a normal state will not have these conditioned reflexes.”

Ogata moved his body away, and gently brushed away the hair around the circular scalp with his gloved hands, so that everyone could see the details clearly.Because some things, if you just say it with your mouth, people who hear it will not be convincing, and think it is nonsense, but you will have the purest perception when you see it.

"This also shows that the excitement and tension that the deceased had before dying was due to something, someone, or something..."

Ogata suddenly asked Suzuki Ayako: "Miss Suzuki, did you see the deceased at five o'clock in the morning?"

"That's right, she was indeed lying on the bed, and after I washed up, I went to help make breakfast. Because she was a little angry, I didn't wake her up." Suzuki Ayako replied truthfully.

Ogata sighed: "Because of this, the time of death was misleading, making us think that Chikako Ikeda was killed after five o'clock in the morning."

"Could it be?" Everyone looked at Ogata suspiciously.

"It is difficult for us to understand why the murderer divided the body into two parts, the main body and the head. Perhaps everyone will think that the murderer cut off Chikako Ikeda's head just to satisfy the perverted murderous desire... It is also very likely that because of hatred, after her death, she vented her anger."

"Actually, these are psychological things that don't have any practical significance."

Ogata's tone began to increase: "But what I want to tell everyone is that this is a method of time illusion... In Ms. Suzuki's narration, we have confirmed one thing, that is, she cannot determine the time Ikeda Chikako is alive."

"You mean..."

For a moment, Suzuki Ayako trembled all over, while the others looked at the head in horror.

"That's right, after the murder, the murderer put Zhijiazi's head on the pillow and kept sleeping. The quilt should be stuffed with some clothes or pillows to keep the head and the body in sleep. Appearance..."

"What Suzuki-san saw was not Chikako Ikeda alive."

"It was the head we found in the woods."

Ogata's voice echoed in the living room, and everyone felt shuddering.
