"But I don't think the murderer was Mr. Wright, nor do I think the murder weapon was this knife, because Mr. Wright once told me at that time that this knife could not hurt anyone."

This time, before Naruhodou Ryuichi could speak, Nanami Chiaki defended him first.But this explanation was obviously difficult to convince others, and Nagito Komaeda burst into laughter.

"Nanami-san, I know you believe others easily, but this time Mr. Wright's lies are too despicable."

Let's talk, Nagito Komaeda took advantage of the fact that others didn't react, grabbed the long knife in front of him, and slashed it hard in front of him with his backhand!

brush!

Not even the sound of wood being chopped was heard. After a hoarse friction sound, the edge of the table in front of Komaeda Nagito was simply divided into two pieces and collapsed, as if the snow had been scratched by a hot sharp blade!

"It's such a sharp knife. Even the strongest person will be easily cut into pieces if he is struck by something like this, right?" Nagito Komaeda looked at the blood-stained blade in his hand and marveled, and then looked at Nari jokingly. Ryuichi Butou: "Say that this kind of thing won't hurt anyone. Mr. Butou, you can only deceive the other students. You are such an innocent girl who easily trusts others."

After seeing the sharpness of this knife with their own eyes, the others' expressions became serious.

"It's so sharp, I'm afraid even the slightest touch will cause it to bleed..." Christina frowned.

Sugou Nobuyuki, Miyano Akemi and others even cast doubt on Phoenix Wright Ryuichi: "Night Phoenix, it's not that we doubt you, but your statement is really untenable..."

"Why are you telling such unnecessary lies? You are really suspicious now..."

"This knife is called a bluff. Although it is indeed very sharp against other things, it really has no way of causing harm to people!" Knowing that this kind of thing is hard to believe, Ryūichi Naruhodou explained helplessly: "If you don't If you believe it, you can ask Margaret!”

"Really?" Nagi Komaeda raised an eyebrow in disbelief and turned to look at Margaret: "That's what he said, Miss Margaret?"

"Yes, he did say that." Margaret nodded and continued to flip through the books in her hand.

"Then can you explain it to us?" Even though he could see that Margaret didn't want to answer, Nagito Komaeda still asked without giving up.

"I will not answer questions here that involve the privacy of other contestants." Margaret finally raised her head, but refused to answer the question with a smile: "If you really want to know my thoughts, I can tell you that I am thinking about the recent good weather and whether I should organize some activities to bring everyone closer together and make the game more interesting."

"That's really hard on you~" Nagito Komaeda shrugged, put the long knife on the table next to Margaret, and looked at the downcast Naruhodou Ryuichi again: "Mr. Naruhodou, look It seems that Miss Margaret can’t help you prove your innocence?”

"Margaret, how could you say that?!"

I don't know what happened, but Phoenix Ryūichi seemed a little anxious. He walked quickly to Margaret, as if he wanted to question her: "Didn't you tell me personally before that this thing can't be hurt?" Human?!”

Regarding this, Margaret just smiled: "If you insist on making this claim, I won't stop you."

"you--"

The others just watched as the excited Phoenix Ryūichi rushed to Margaret and raised his hands high.

But except for two or three people who showed worried expressions, the rest were eager to see what Margaret would do after Wright Phoenix attacked the host. Reaction.

But the result was beyond their expectations. After Wright rushed to Margaret.Instead of attacking her, he picked up the long knife lying next to her.

"It's not like I didn't guess that you would say that." After getting the bluff, Wright's original excited expression disappeared. Instead, he said to Margaret in a relaxed tone: "After all, what happened to your program team?" Is it possible to provide such great help to one person?”

"It's great that you are so understanding." Margaret smiled.

But here Phoenix Ryuichi and Margaret regained their composure, while many others sitting at the table became nervous again.

A murder suspect who may have been cornered now has a murder weapon that could easily kill him, and they are now trapped in a room with no way to escape, and they are defenseless...

"Okay, Wright, please calm down..."

Looking at Naruhodou Ryuichi holding a blood-stained sword in his hand, Sugou Nobuyuki's voice even trembled a little: "Don't be impulsive..."

"Oh, oh, Mr. Wright, you can't defend yourself, so are you ready to go on a killing spree?" Even in the crisis, Nagito Komaeda said happily.

"Don't continue to scare them, Komaeda." Phoenix Wright shook his head helplessly: "I guess the situation may turn out like this. If you doubt me so much, even if I say that you can just get this knife. To prove my innocence, you will definitely not hand over the knife to me easily, so I had to devise some strategy to get close to it."

As he spoke, Wright raised his bluff and looked at the dried blood on it seriously: "Now, I'm here to prove to you that this knife can't hurt anyone."

In the next lesson, under the shocked eyes of everyone on the field, Phoenix Wright turned the long knife and stabbed himself in the stomach without hesitation!

"ah--?"

As if they had foreseen the coming bloody scene, girls like Christina and Miyano Akemi subconsciously covered their eyes in advance and were prepared to scream.

But they soon realized that something was not right, and the screams were stopped halfway.

"It's true that he wasn't injured...?" In the dead silence of the audience, Miyanagi Chienami murmured in disbelief.

"That's why I said you can't hurt anyone."

Although Phoenix Ryuichi pretended to be calm, cold sweat inevitably broke out on his forehead.

In fact, he originally wanted to wipe his neck directly, but then he thought about it. If the knife was stolen midway and it was a real knife, wouldn't he die?So I temporarily switched to stabbing my stomach.

Fortunately, that terrible thing doesn't seem to have happened...

"This should prove my innocence——"

"Unfortunately, Mr. Wright, this still cannot rule out your suspicion." Before Wright Ryuichi finished speaking, he was interrupted again by Nagito Komaeda.

He held in his hand the information about the knife that Margaret had provided them before, and chuckled: "Miss Margaret marked the remaining traces on the knife for us. You don't have these things yet." See?"

After seeing the bluff, I was shocked. I really didn’t have time to take a closer look...

Cheng Butang Ryuichi felt a little embarrassed, picked up the information in front of him, and started reading.

[Bloody long knife]

[Knife length: 66.1 cm]

[Knife width: 3.2 cm]

[There are traces of human blood remaining on the blade, which has been tested to be that of contestant Mohammed Abdel; the entire blade is stained with a transparent fluorescent liquid, which can emit a faint light in a dark environment. ]

"This, this is..."

"It should be an evidence report similar to an autopsy report?" Nagito Komaeda thoughtfully added the answer for the shocked Naruhodou Ryuichi: "It clearly states that the blood on the knife belongs to Abdel, right?"

"Even if it didn't kill Abdel, this knife at least participated in his dismemberment. It would be even more reasonable to use some means to incapacitate Abdel first, and then kill him and dismember him..." After all, with Abdel’s physique, it would be difficult to kill him easily even with weapons, right?”

"So Mr. Wright, there is still huge suspicion on you, whether as the principal culprit or an accomplice."

Chapter 310 Breakthrough

Margaret had no reason to lie, so it was certain that the blood on the knife was indeed Abdel's blood.

"Although this is the case, it does not prove the relationship between me and the case!" Although he knew that he had unknowingly fallen into the trap of the unknown murderer, this was all that Phoenix Ryuichi could do. He bravely defended himself: "The door to the room in the villa cannot be locked, so it is normal for someone to steal the knife when I am not in the room!"

Faced with Wright's stubborn resistance, Nagito Komaeda just shook his head silently: "It's a reasonable idea, Mr. Wright, but it's meaningless."

"There are too many possible situations in this world. For example, the murderer may have moved up and down on a rope in Mr. Sugou's room and then killed Abdel; or it may be that, as you said, Qianami is like a World-class athletes completed difficult gymnastics moves like that, and then carried the body; it is even possible that Abdel actually committed suicide, and then used some method to dismember his body..."

"But why don't we think about these situations? Because the possibility of them happening is so low that we don't need to discuss it."

"Mr. Wright, what you are talking about now is the same as these situations-all the people in the villa, except Nanami-san, may go to your room to steal weapons. After all, we have no objection at all. Proof of presence.”

"But we have neither a motive nor a method to kill. In this case, it seems to make no sense to steal the weapon from your room."

"So compared to us 'unrelated persons', the suspicion is undoubtedly focused on you."

"..."

Cold sweat wet his back, and Phoenix Ryuichi could hear the deafening heartbeat in his chest.

The suspicious glances from all around seemed to wrap a noose around his body, just waiting to tighten his throat when the time came.

But Wright Ryuichi did not feel panicked. On the contrary, he even laughed out loud.

This time it wasn't a bluff, he was laughing because he had figured something out.

A place where he could locate the murderer.

"What's wrong, Mr. Naruhodou? Could it be that you find yourself unable to argue and have gone insane?" Nagito Komaeda opened his eyes with concern: "You don't want this kind of thing, let alone hope, it's even a stepping stone. If you don't get up, you'll fall down or something..."

"Don't worry Komaeda, I just remembered something happy."

"What's the happy thing?" Komaeda Nagito asked with great interest.

Phoenix Wright crossed his chest confidently and looked at Nagito Komaeda with a smile: "I know who the murderer is."

"Oh?" Nagito Komaeda raised an eyebrow: "It seems that Mr. Wright is very confident this time. Did he find any new clues?"

"It's not a new clue, I just figured out a problem that has been bothering me..."

Wright shook his head: "I saw some kind of luminous object at that time, so I chased him all the way into the room, and then I found Abdel's body and was attacked."

"Because there were so many important things that happened after that, I temporarily forgot to think about what the glowing thing was at that time. That thing would move, float, and disappear... It was like some kind of UFO. .”

"It seems that Mr. Phoenix Wright knows what its true identity is?" Nagito Komaeda looked at Nagito Komaeda with a smile: "You shouldn't tell us that it is actually an alien from Lilliputian Planet. The spaceship you pilot, right?”

"It's not science fiction yet."

Picking up the evidence report in front of him, Wright pointed to a certain sentence on it: "The answer is right here - some kind of transparent fluorescent liquid."

"But Mr. Wright, this liquid was found on your knife." Christina frowned: "What does this have to do with the UFO you mentioned? Do you want to say that the UFO is also Does it have anything to do with you?"

"That's right." Under everyone's shocked eyes, Wright nodded: "It would be better to say that the reason why that one shines is because of my mistake."

"Yesterday, I was too tired when I returned to my room after staying up late for work. I accidentally knocked down a shelf in the room. Because I was so sleepy, I didn't pay much attention at the time and went straight to bed. I didn't go to bed until the next day. tidy."

"That's when I discovered that many things on the floor were wet, because a bottle on the cabinet was broken, because the transparent liquid flowed out, and everything including the bluff knife was soaked by it. .”

"So Mr. Wright, you want to say that the UFO actually glows when it sticks to the liquid you mentioned?" Christina asked seriously: "But that liquid is stored in your room, we Others can’t reach it at all.”

"It is true, but there is one exception..."

The next moment, in the pale face of Miyanagi Chinami, Phoenix Wright's fingers slowly moved towards her.

"do you think so?"

Chapter 311

"I put away all the things that were wet by water yesterday, but there was only one thing missing. I saw that it was really not in a good mood, so I returned it to its original owner."

Wright's hand pointed directly at the butterfly pendant on Miyanagi Chinami's waist: "That's it!"

"You, what are you talking about..." Miyanagi Chinami was called out again and took two steps back in panic, but still defended weakly: "I didn't kill anyone! I don't know what you are talking about... ..”

"Mr. Naruhodou, I thought you were going to have some eloquent opinions because of your arrogance, but that's all it turned out to be?"

Seeing that Phoenix Ryūichi was pointing his finger at Huanbi Qianami again, Nagito Komaeda sighed and shook his head in an exaggerated tone: "That's not possible at all... Didn't we discuss it just now? The attack is completely untenable."

"How she moved between rooms, I really haven't figured out the answer yet." Without paying attention to Nagito Komaeda's rebuttal, Phoenix Ryūichi's eyes were locked on Miyanagi Chianami: "If the knife is fluorescent If the traces are indeed from the bottle of liquid I spilled at that time, there is no doubt that the pendant I gave you will also be stained with fluorescence!"

"Because the room is very dark after the power outage, so even if you hold the pendant in your hand, I can only vaguely see the luminous object floating and cannot see you. You can easily lure me into the room according to your plan! "

"At that time, I thought the light in the corridor disappeared because he entered the room. In fact, it was just you putting the pendant away. After I entered the room, you followed me in and attacked me with a weapon. I just didn't think of you. The stolen knife can't kill anyone——"

"I say that's enough for you!!"

There was a loud bang and a voice that could not suppress his anger interrupted Phoenix Ryuichi's words.

Everyone present, except for Naruhodou Ryuichi, all looked in the direction of Miyanagi Chinami in surprise.I saw that she was furious at this time, and her originally delicate face was also distorted by anger. She clenched her hands into fists and put them on the table. It seemed that she would rush forward and hit Chengbutang Ryu hard in the next second. One's face.

The image of the fragile and melancholic beautiful girl before has long flown to nowhere, and what remains is only an extremely angry mad woman.

"Have you finally revealed your true colors?" Wright crossed his arms and calmly looked at the scene in front of him. He had already seen this guy's true nature, so he would not be surprised by it.

"Your true face [beep——]!"

Miyanagi Chinami punched the table in front of her angrily again: "How many times have I told you, I didn't kill anyone, I didn't kill anyone, why do you keep holding on to me?!!"

"I told you I don't want to mess with you! I admit my mistake, I regret it, I just want to be resurrected, what's wrong with this?!"

Miyanagi Chinami roared angrily, staring at Phoenix Wright Ryuichi across from her with hateful eyes: "I have already given in to you like this. I know that I was sorry to you before, so I have done this, and you still want me." what to do!"

"You must not let me go? Just like that Ayari Chihiro, you must kill me to death?!!!"

Everyone fell into silence because of the current situation. It was obvious that the situation had escalated to the point of a feud between the two, and it was not appropriate for them to interrupt as they were not clear about the feud between the two.

But now, when the two of them seemed to be losing their minds due to the quarrel, it would be a good choice to collect information about them.

In the face of Miyanagi Chinami's anger, Naruhodou Ryuichi remained very calm. Based on his understanding of this woman, at this time when she was not forced into a desperate situation, she was determined not to lose her mind.

So there is only one possibility. The angry resentful woman look now is also the other party's acting skills.

But what is she doing this for?Carrying out this kind of behavior will only weaken the image of the victim she has always pretended to be...

Forget it, now is not the time to think about that.

Phoenix Ryū calmly crossed his arms and looked at Miyanagi Chianami with the same calm eyes as his good friend Reishi Mitsurugi: "If you have committed a crime, you will definitely be found out. I want to prevent myself from being caught." Doubtful, the only way to do it is to actually not do bad things.”

"You fart!" Miyanagi Chinami was furious, and then the next second, she suddenly calmed down again.

"I know, I know...you are determined to make me the scapegoat now."

Miyanagi Qianami sneered: "Do you think I will let you get your wish? I have done so much for you, but if you still refuse to let me go, there is no need."
