Black-haired Knight King of Chaldea

Chapter 832 The Only Solution
The more you think about it, the less you can come to a conclusion.

Yagi Xuesai is very confused now.Tension and entanglement mixed together into an unbearable heaviness.

Worrying about when the next victim will appear.

Worried about whether the next victim will be Fujimaru Tachika's turn.

Moreover, no matter how hard you think, you still can't find clues to find the real culprit like the detective in the animation.

Yagi Xuesai is not good at this kind of thing.

He is good at intrigue.

Explained by the case, he is very suitable as a murderer, not a detective.

(The only way I can think of... is to kill all the residents in this apartment. Since the murderer is in our group, as long as everyone except Lixiang and me is excluded, there will be no problem.)
He couldn't help but think so deep down in his heart.

However, considering Lixiang's mood, she would definitely not allow herself to do this.Then, it is necessary to design a lot of weird assassination plans that will not make people notice the problem.

This... can only be considered as a last resort.

Yagi still can't understand what is going on with the other party's killing methods.

Why on earth, Mordred, Joan of Arc, will die for no reason?
Can't understand...

The really feasible solution to do now should be...

Yagi Xuesai tried hard to suppress his disgust, thinking:

Since every time I do something, the time will advance, and judging from the fact that I have only advanced one morning to handle things separately from the two ceremonies, the first step is to expand the number of [detectives].

At that time, multiple investigators will investigate together.

But... who can I ask?

In fact, he doesn't even know how many residents there are in this place, and no one knows.

Reliable people may not help themselves.

Like the golden Gilgamesh.

If you ask him to use the power of his all-knowing and omnipotent star, I'm afraid it won't be a second to crack the mechanism.The problem is that he will neither help himself, nor will he use his precious ability in such a place.

Will help, not necessarily reliable.

Like Iskandar.If you just ask, he'll probably help in the end, but the big guy doesn't look like he's very good at assassination.Regardless of military strategy, this kind of killing and reasoning is obviously not something he is good at.

Moreover, here we also need to consider whether these people are united in one mind, are they really wholehearted, for example, they agreed verbally, but who is to blame if they run away afterwards?

Typical is Astolfo.Although the reason why Astolfo didn't do it was that his rationality evaporated and he forgot, not because he really didn't want to do it.

Yagi Xuezhai also felt that he was really not suitable to be a detective.

If only that Sherlock Holmes could be more serious and work harder.

Yagi Yusaisai looked forward to it in his heart.However, that fat guy just looked silly, which made Yagi feel hard to let go.

(No matter which solution it is, there is no way to find the most suitable solution... Without knowing the residents here, it is impossible to infer. This time system is really the biggest obstacle... Even the exploration before the two ceremonies... ...Even asking the residents would count as an action. Then, just exploring how many people live in this ten-story apartment is enough to kill several people...)
Wait a moment?
Yagi suddenly thought of...

If it is said that the investigation of each household will be carried out according to the time...then...just find someone who fully understands the structure of this apartment building?
"Miss Yuzao, do you have a roster of residents here?"

Yagi approached the lost Tamamo, this woman with the characteristics of a fox, was drooping her ears and tail, looking lost.Hearing Yagi's words, she shook her head: "James helped with the specific operation, and I only know the general situation."

"James..."

Speaking of which, Yuzao mentioned before that the old butler James is the owner of this place.James was here when he came.

This person ... is also suspicious.

Just because I knew him before, I can't rule out suspiciousness.

Yagi originally wanted to ask him about the situation, only to find out that he was not in the underground hot spring area.

He inquired about his position with Yuzao, and Bagu rushed to the employee lounge.

Sure enough, through the keyhole, he confirmed that James was sitting inside, not knowing what he was doing.

"Mr. James? Are you there?"

"Oh, oh yes. Wait a minute, wait a minute... Whoa?!"

The old housekeeper suddenly made a startled sound, Yagi was taken aback, and with a bad feeling, kicked open the door of the staff lounge...

I saw the old housekeeper sitting on the floor, holding a gray remote control in his hand to control the role in the TV screen to fight.The huge monster was sweeping the tail, and the villain in the picture flew directly.

Then the screen slowed down and the colors faded. It was obviously game over.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

The old man lowered his head deeply, and his whole body seemed to turn gray and white.

"That... are you playing a game?"

"Um……"

James has not yet come out of the shadow of failure, and the whole person seems very lost.

In this way, Yagi can understand why he asked himself to wait a while before, because in the middle of the boss battle, the sound of wow was just because he didn't correctly predict the enemy's battle, and he was frightened by the boss's actions.

In an instant, the tense atmosphere disappeared.

"That... I, I want to ask you for a copy of the information of all the tenants here."

"Well, in general, the hotel cannot leak customer information at will."

James shook his head, stroked his beard with one hand, and refused his request.He took two cans of soda from the refrigerator in the corner and handed him one.

"But there was a murder here."

"It has nothing to do with that. Since we are the people who rent out the apartment, we can't disclose customer information at will. If you want information, you must go through the public security organs to show us proper procedures to access the information."

Seeing that he didn't pick up the drink, James opened a can and drank it first.

"What modern law do we of your followers discuss?"

"Haha, that's true. However, we are not bound by the law, and I must provide you with information. These two things are not related, are they?"

James doesn't fall into Yagi's logical trap at all.Jumped out in one step.

"...Can't you make an exception?"

Yagi Xuesai continued to plead.

In terms of his past style, he would definitely choose to use threats here to make the opponent speak.

But for some reason, he felt, only this time it didn't work.This James, obviously a hob meat, would not care about such methods at all.

"It's not impossible to make an exception. But why? Why is it necessary?"

James pushed his glasses and showed a smile that made people feel a little bit ominous.
