Reasoning Notes

Chapter 320 Reasoning Notes 7: Killing the Three Kingdoms (19)
It's like a speculative novel.But the word after fruit is confusing.Qi Mu had searched the Internet before, but could not find any books with similar titles to this one.This is even more strange. Could it be that this was not torn from the title page of the book?But the deceased held the shredded paper tightly in his hand, obviously wanting to leave a message of death.

Let's go to the bookstore first.Qi Mu thought so.He planned to go to the largest Tianhe City book shopping center in the city to look for it.Before going out, Qi Mu thought of the people watching downstairs.You have to get rid of them.

There is a way, but... alas!Qi Mu smiled helplessly.

Three minutes later, he appeared in the guard room.

His mission is over.

The security guard was packing up things in the guard room.Today is his last day of work.Lord Ghost told him that there was no need to secretly protect Jiang You anymore.He can retreat now.

Just as the security guard had just packed his things, he saw Qi Mu pretending to be Jiang You walking in.

"Security. I need your help with something."

Qi Mu's tone was very cold, and he kept a certain distance from the security guard, probably because he was afraid of being taken advantage of by the other party.Qi Mu said that he found suspicious guys outside the community.

The security guard hesitated.His mission is over, so there's no need to meddle in his own business.But after thinking about it, he still agreed to do Jiang You one last favor.

Pointing to the white Lamborghini, Qi Mu gave the security guard a "cover me" wink, and immediately strode out.Sure enough, Mikaka followed immediately, and a detective followed slowly behind in a Lamborghini.

"Hey, you two, what are you doing!"

Qi Mu heard the security guard shouting behind him, and when he turned his head and saw Mikaka and Lamborghini being stopped by tall and mighty security guards, he immediately quickened his pace and stopped a taxi. "Go to Tianhe City Book Center."

The taxi drove out quickly, and the white Lamborghini didn't catch up along the way.

When he came to the entrance of the book shopping center, Qi Mu saw that the large display screen above his head was broadcasting a warning message - "A bizarre case of dumping corpses occurred near Jiangnan Avenue the night before yesterday. At around 11:30, a van unintentionally collided with When they got into the police car, the two people in the car fled in a hurry. The police found a female body in the car. The police are currently hunting for two suspects. One suspect was confirmed by the police at the time to be Kang Dou, a serious murderer who escaped from prison. As for the other The prisoner is still under investigation. I hope that citizens with clues will actively report."

It seems that the police only recognized Kang Doo and not him that night.This is also reasonable, because he was wearing a mask at the time.Thinking about it, Qi Mu quickly walked into the book city.Because of the weekend, there were a lot of guests in the book city, Qi Mu went around a few times, but found nothing.It is not easy to find a book with an incomplete title in a dazzling array of books.Qi Mu had no choice but to go to the counter and ask a young female clerk.

"Excuse me, I want to find a book, but I only know the incomplete title..."

The female clerk looked at the shredded paper he handed over, "Following reasoning?" She tilted her head, "I'm sorry, I haven't heard of it."

"Okay..." Qi was not disappointed.

"Well then, I'll help you search on the computer. You can find all the books in our bookstore." The female clerk was very enthusiastic, and immediately sat down and typed on the keyboard.But she quickly said disappointedly: "I'm sorry, we don't have the book "Consequences Reasoning" here."

"No, it's okay." Qi Mu turned his face away at this time, looking away thoughtfully."I've found it," he said.

The clerk saw the boy with clear eyes walking to the other side.There was a long queue over there.Today, a reasoning writer held a signing activity here.The clerk saw Saiki go to the poster standing next to the line.His body just half-covers the cover of a new book on the poster - "The Reasoning After Consequences".

Oh, no, it's "After School Reasoning"!
Qi Mu bought a copy from the book stand next to the poster, turned to the title page, and compared the shredded paper in his hand. It was completely consistent.It turned out that it wasn't the fruit character, but when the deceased tore it off, he just tore the class character in two.No wonder the name is so strange, Qi Mu laughed dumbly, and he walked over to ask the male clerk selling books.

"Excuse me, when did this book start selling?"

"This is the first book in the country." The male clerk said with a smile, "Today is also the first stop for Mr. Zhao to sign the book. So, sir, you are the first readers of this book."

"That is to say, is this book only available in the market today?"

"Of course." The male clerk replied.

This is strange.Why do people who died a few days ago have a book published today?Qi Mu frowned slightly, and he asked the male clerk: "If I have this book before a friend, is it possible?"

"Ah?!" The male clerk was taken aback, and quickly replied: "It's not impossible. Unless your friends know the author or publishing house of this book, because they will all get the sample book in advance. Huh?" The male clerk seemed A little recognized, "Sir, are you the one who draws the manga...?"

Qi Mu didn't answer, and stared down at the shredded paper in his hand.So, this is a sample book?
According to the male clerk, the murderer is most likely hiding in the publishing house, or the author who wrote the book... He raised his eyes to the author who was signing autographs for readers.The man in the suit and leather shoes is very young, less than 30 years old, with a clear smile and a handsome face. The introduction about him on the back of the cover is written like this——Zhao Fengchen, a rapidly rising star in the mystery novel world, debuted in his work Set a sales record of 200 million copies.

According to today's words, this is a typical tall, rich and handsome.No wonder all the female fans lined up to get his autograph.Qi Mu thought for a while and followed the team.When it was his turn, Qi Mu deliberately dropped the shredded paper in his hand.

"Huh?" Zhao Fengchen, who was buried in his signature, picked up the shredded paper, slightly confused, "Sir? Is this yours?" When he raised his head and saw Qi Mu's mask, his expression froze. Keenly captured by Qi Mu.This writer knows Jiang You!Although Jiang You is a well-known cartoonist, it is not surprising that someone knows him, but it is strange that this writer deliberately pretends not to know him.

Qi Mu hit the iron while the iron was hot, took back the shredded paper in the opponent's hand, and said: "Sorry, don't get me wrong, I didn't tear this piece of paper from a book. Actually, it was a friend's sister who died before she died. I held it in my hand. My friend didn’t know what it meant, so he came to me for help. Naturally, I couldn’t figure it out, so I thought of asking you, a well-known reasoning writer, to see if you can solve this mystery. "

"I'm sorry sir. Writing novels and solving crimes are two different things." Zhao Fengchen had a charming smile on his lips, but it was a little stiff.He was probably under a lot of pressure psychologically, and Qi Mu saw a drop or two of cold sweat oozing from his forehead.He tried to pretend to speak as calmly as possible: "I can't help you. Because I'm not a detective. You'd better go to the police for this kind of thing."

"Okay then. Sorry to bother you. Goodbye." Qi Mu said happily.After a short contact, he has already found the murderer——the writer in front of him.

At this time, a pair of shiny brand-name leather shoes was rushing into the book city, and approaching Qi Mu quickly.When he turned around, Qi Mu saw the owner of the pair of leather shoes.

This person is...

At that moment, Saiki couldn't believe what he saw.

"Jiang You, I am a detective, entrusted by the police station, please accept the investigation."

The man came up and showed the police warrant.There were two people beside him.One is Mi Kaka, and the other is He Yuge, a young policeman I met the night before.Qi Mu stared at the man standing in front of him, the gentle face in his clear pupils was looking at him firmly.

The shot appears long.The language seems to have lost its way in the throat and cannot find its way out.Qi Mu opened his mouth wide, as if dreaming.

The brain edited out the old fragments in the memory at a very slow speed, the messy lines were recombined, and a familiar face slowly emerged.A famous detective named Yi Tianjing died a long time ago, and then lived with a high school girl.

That's it, right?

That being the case, what happened to the man in front of him? !
It seemed that the past he had experienced was just a huge lie, that famous detective was not dead at all, and he was standing in front of him now.Or maybe the man is just an illusion created by the retina.Qi Mu rubbed his eyes, then opened them again, light flooded into the eyeballs, clearly illuminating the outline of the man.

His face, his eyes, and his smile approached vigorously, the illusion could not be so real!

"Hey, Jiang You, did you hear clearly?" The detective was impatient with Qi Mu's slow reaction, "You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will become evidence in court."

What a corny line.Qi Mu smiled lightly.This smile restored his sanity a lot.He looked at the familiar detective in front of him and asked, "Are you a detective? What's your name?"

"Cut." The detective raised his head slightly, with a proud line drawn along his chin. "My name is Yi Tianjing, the most famous detective in the world."

What about Yi Tianjing?It was indeed the same name.Saiki's gaze turned to Mikaka.He was standing dutifully beside the famous detective.This pair can't help but remind people of Edison and Mikaka in the past.Those two partners who had the courage to fight against the dark forces appeared again.

However, this is just an illusion.

This man is not Detective Edison.Although he has the same face and the same name, Qi Mu knows in his heart that Edison is dead and cannot be resurrected.Now this famous detective is a fake.From those eyes shining with wisdom, Qi Mu also noticed a hint of cunning.
