"Miss Margaret, if the votes of two groups are the same, how to judge?"
Chapter 342 Rewards
"Well, what should we do?" Margaret smiled and tilted her head. The business smile on her face made it difficult to figure out what she was really thinking about at the moment: "Let me think about it. This event was originally designed to bring everyone closer. Of course, the purpose is to make everyone happy. If there is a conflict because of rewards, it will go against the purpose... ..”
"Then if the votes are the same, let's award prizes to both teams." Margaret said lightly.
"...?"
Margaret's answer made Phoenix Wright frown, not because he had any objections to such a happy answer, but because he discovered something - something starting from this performance conference, It was something that made him feel disharmonious in his subconscious.
That is Margaret, the host who organized this conference. It seems that she has never been very interested?
During the conference, she seemed very bland whether she was opening the meeting or answering questions.
Of course, I don’t like this convention, so it’s normal for me to have no interest in it. After all, setting off fireworks is not an interesting activity that everyone can enjoy.For example, Gin was quite resistant to this matter from beginning to end, which is understandable.
But Margaret shouldn't be like this. You must know that the fireworks festival itself was organized by her, and she had also shown a very positive and optimistic attitude towards the holding of this conference before, and she was obviously looking forward to it.
But after the meeting really started, Margaret became less talkative, almost all the time was formulaic and perfunctory, as if her mind was not on the conference at all.
Something must have happened...
Christina was absent from the game, Miyano Akemi was plotting a conspiracy, Gin left midway, the murderer who killed Abdel but was still lurking in the crowd, Margaret's strange attitude...
Cheng Butang Ryuichi became a little uneasy. His intuition and rationality told him that something serious must have happened somewhere that he didn't know about.
Looking at Nagito Komaeda who was still thinking about who to vote for on the stage, Phoenix Wright really wanted to get up and tell everyone: Don't waste time here, everyone should hurry back to the villa to see what happened. What the hell, go check on the safety of those who are not present!
But it's obvious that this won't work. After all, these are just his conjectures, without any evidence at all. Unless he reveals all Miyano Akemi's previous plans, it will only increase his own suspicion.
Fortunately, after thinking for a long time, Nagito Komaeda seemed to have finally made up his mind. Under the surprised eyes of the audience, he put his sticker on the sign of Christina and Nanami Chiaki.
"What are you doing, Komaeda!" Nobuyuki Sugou was so shocked by Nagito Komaeda's behavior that he stood up directly: "You are our group!"
"Although Akemi-nee and I are in the same group, Nanami and I are also very good classmates, so it's really difficult for me." As if to explain the confused look, Komaeda Nagito looked very troubled. : "There is no other way. In the end, I can only choose to seek truth from facts."
"Huh?" Nagito Komaeda's outrageous answer made the onlooker Chiana Miyanagi's expression wrinkle into a ball: "But the host just said that as long as two people tie the vote, both of them will get the reward, right? If you just vote for Miyano, the two people will vote equally, and everyone will like it or not."
"Although that's the case, but..." Nagito Komaeda smiled and spread his hands: "It's too boring like this."
"what?"
"Without any struggle or training, a meaningless reconciliation was reached so easily - such an ending cannot be called hope at all." The curvature of the corners of his mouth became wider and wider, and Nagito Komaeda's eyes seemed to Turning the spiral of chaos, the excitement in his tone became increasingly uncontrollable.
"Hope needs to be proven. Only the light that can bloom under the drowning of despair can be called hope! Rather than allowing this kind of thing to succeed, it is better to make despair stronger and see if there is anything else—— "
"Whatever...forget it, do whatever you want, it's none of my business anyway."
Seeing Nagito Komaeda giving a passionate speech on the stage, Chinami Miyanagi, who was fearless, shrank her neck and chose to sit back.
It wasn't that she was afraid of Nagito Komaeda, but his behavior made her feel that this guy's mind was not normal, a bit like the kind of guy who promoted a cult... There is a saying, this It's better not to have contact with this kind of guy.
"It seems that everyone has no objections, so let's do it." Margaret looked around, then stood up and walked to the stage: "Three votes to five, so I am honored to announce this time The winner is the team of Cristina and Chiaki Nanami.”
"This fireworks display has ended successfully. Thank you everyone for participating. Goodbye——"
"Wait, did you miss something?" Miyanagi Chinami stopped Margaret who was about to leave: "Where is the prize? Where is the promised prize?"
"Yes, there's this..." Margaret sighed, stood up again and looked at Nanami Chiaki: "Then please allow me to announce to everyone the rewards of this reward competition, The mysterious gift that No. 1 can get in this competition is a small wish."
"?!!"
As soon as Margaret said this, everyone present stood up in disbelief and stared at her.
"Are you kidding? If it was this kind of thing, you should have said it earlier!!" Miyanagi Chienami shouted angrily.
It was very ungraceful, but it also spoke out to everyone present.
They risked being killed in this competition and survived until the end. All they got was a wish. Now they are told that as long as they participate in this shitty fireworks show, No. 1 can easily get the same wish. award? !
Even if it’s the same ticket, can everyone get such a reward?If I had known this was the case, everyone would definitely try their best to participate in this event instead of just fooling around.
"I have obviously reminded everyone to actively participate." Margaret smiled: "It's just a pity that no one seems to be very interested in it."
"It's not because you didn't make it clear!" This explanation obviously failed to calm everyone's emotions.
"Mysterious gifts are interesting when they remain unknown." Margaret did not have any emotional fluctuations due to everyone's excitement. She just continued to explain with a smile: "But everyone seems to be so interested in the prize this time. There is a small misunderstanding, please let me explain it first."
"The reward of this conference is not the kind of wishing power that you will get after you finally win this game. This is a smaller right that is more like help than a wish."
Chapter 343
"The wishes provided by this conference can only realize some small things. Things like resurrecting the dead, changing the world, immortality and the like will not work. After all, if wishes can be obtained so easily, it will not work for everyone. It’s not fair to the players whose lives are struggling in the game, isn’t it?”
"The only things that this kind of wish can be fulfilled are... well, for example, if you want some gold and silver treasures, or if something very commemorative is damaged and you want to restore it, or you can cure a disease or something like that. For example, if you want to get some truth or get advice from the program team on something, we are also happy to help with such things - of course, we have the right to remain silent on matters related to the program team and games."
"But there are exceptions - if you are determined to use this wish for something related to the show, then we allow you to make an off-site request."
"Ask for help outside the venue?" Nanami Chiaki asked in confusion.
"You can choose a person who is outside, and we will allow him to have a five-minute call with you." Margaret smiled.
Well, although it is indeed a great gift, it is definitely not on the same level as the desire to win the game...
Phoenix Ryuuichi felt a little more relaxed. If the prize this time was really a wish, then things would be very serious, and the already tense atmosphere in the villa would be directly detonated.
Although the peace may not last long now.
"How about it, Miss Nanami, do you want to use the right to help now?" Margaret looked at Nanami Chiaki, waiting for her answer.
But what surprised others was that Nanami Chiaki refused directly after just thinking for a moment: "I didn't help at all in making the fireworks. It was basically Christina who did it. The right to make a wish should be hers." .”
"Really? If this is your decision, then I won't say anything." Margaret was not surprised by Nanami Qianqiu's choice, and just smiled softly: "The right to help will still be reserved for you, You can always choose to use this potential later.”
"Now that all aspects of this event are over, please allow me to take my leave."
After bowing, Margaret disappeared from everyone's eyes as silently as usual, leaving them alone in a daze in the snow.
"It was so big in the beginning, but it ended so easily...?" Miyanagi Chinami's expression was quite subtle: "Well, how should I put it, it seems a bit anticlimactic."
"Who can guess what the program team is thinking." Miyano Akemi sighed, with obvious confusion in her eyes.
Phoenix Wright didn't know what she was thinking. Maybe it was disappointment at missing out on the grand prize, or maybe it was confusion about the future.
Now there is one thing that is more important to Wright.
"Everyone, I would like to ask if any of you have seen Christina?" Wright asked anxiously as soon as he opened his mouth.
Everyone looked at each other with some confusion, then shook their heads.
"I did meet her once in the morning. She seemed to be leaving the villa to go to the resource house at that time..." Nobuyuki Sugou said hesitantly: "But we only met that one time, and we didn't see each other again after that. arrive."
"Christina seemed to have returned to the villa in the afternoon, right?" Nagito Komaeda crossed his arms and said casually: "She doesn't look good."
"What do you mean? Komaeda, do you know what happened to her at that time, and what are you going to do?!" Seeing a little hope, Ryūichi Naruhodou asked quickly, but all he got in exchange was Nagito Komaeda's wry smile.
"Mr. Naruhodou, please calm down." Nagito Komaeda raised his hands helplessly as if surrendering: "I'm not an idiot, how could I just pull a girl and ask her what she wants to do? "
"Generally speaking, you will definitely follow this kind of suspicious situation, right?!"
"It is illegal to follow women. Only you, Mr. Wright Phoenix, can do such a thing..."
Damn it, what he said made sense, but I was speechless!
Wright had no choice but to look at the others again: "Everyone, I have a bad feeling. Can we go look for Christina together?"
"Huh?" Of course, the first person to express objections was Phoenix Ryuuichi's arch-rival Chinami Miyanagi. It can be said that whatever Ryūichi Ryuichi raised, she would definitely come over and taunt him: "You said... We are going, we are going? You don’t even have a reason, and you say you have a bad feeling, do you think you are a prophet?"
This time, before Phoenix Ryuichi had time to explain, someone else stood up to support him: "I think so too. It's best for everyone to go find Christina."
Nanami Chiaki looked at everyone's confused eyes and explained: "Christina didn't come to the game today, and I haven't seen her yet."
"Maybe she is just like Gin and just doesn't want to come over?"
Sugou Nobuyuki raised objections, but Nanami Chiaki still persisted and said seriously: "That should be impossible. Christina is still very concerned about this competition. She told me before that she would light the fireworks with her own hands. So she will never be absent without a reason."
"That's it, so let's go look for it!" Seeing everyone starting to think, Wright immediately struck while the iron was hot.
Maybe his persuasion had an effect, or maybe everyone was looking at Nanami's face, but everyone still reluctantly reached an agreement and decided to search for Christina together.
"Thank you, Nanami." On the way back to the villa, Wright thanked Nanami in a low voice. This young girl really helped him a lot.
However, Nanami Chiaki's usual calm expression did not change at all. She just shook her head gently: "I'm not helping you Mr. Naruhodou, but this matter is really strange... and Naruhito Mr. Tang, you actually know something, right? You have been acting strange today, as if you are hiding something - is it related to Miss Miyano? "
"Uh, um..." Wright hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to simply admit: "That's true, but it's not convenient for me to tell you the specific situation now. I'll confirm Christina's condition later. I’ll tell you again.”
Before the specific situation is still uncertain, it is not good to break such news rashly. Although Nanami should be trustworthy, it is better to be cautious.
Of course, nothing happened in the end. When I went back, I saw that Christina just felt uncomfortable, so resting in the room was the best thing...
Chapter 344 The second incident begins
Things often do not develop according to people's expectations, let alone the best situations people envision.
It didn't happen that he saw Christina as soon as he returned to the villa. It could even be said that the actual situation was exactly the opposite - she was missing.
Everyone searched every corner of the villa, but they could not find her figure. It was as if she had just left the villa.
This discovery also made those who originally did not pay attention to this matter finally become serious. Although the worst situation of seeing Christina's body hanging somewhere in the villa did not happen, but now people's sudden Disappearance is obviously not a good omen.
In the end, everyone had to gather in front of Christina's door again to see if they could find any clues from where she lived.
Christina's room looks quite sci-fi. It looks more like a laboratory than a room. It is surrounded by various unknown instruments. Other than that, it looks quite empty, except for the bed in the middle. There is nothing outside. That's why, when he was searching just now, Wright took one look at this place and left directly, because there was no place to hide people here.
"These instruments..."
After Kayaba Akihiko saw these things in the room, he, who had always remained silent and marginal, showed a rare expression of interest at this moment.He walked to the side and checked the data and documents on the machine, thoughtfully: "Brain science and... bionic robots? Hmm..."
"It seems that she was not joking when she said that she was a scholar studying brain science." Kayaba Akihiko looked at Sugou Nobuyuki. The moment their eyes met, Sugou Nobuyuki habitually averted his eyes.
"But these information should have nothing to do with Christina's disappearance." After explaining, Kayaba Akihiko walked back to the crowd and stood aside silently.
"Anyway, let's search carefully in the room to see if there are any clues..." Wright Phoenix sighed.
Missing.
In Blizzard Mountain, a man with a strong motive for murder disappears - and I'm afraid anyone who has read detective novels knows what this means.
But even so, we cannot choose to give up easily...
Wright closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened them again, his eyes were full of the fierceness of a lawyer.
The first thing to do is to search the scene.
Taking a step forward, Phoenix Wright looked around at the situation and began to slowly patrol the room.
There are certain dents and deformations in some places on the floor. Is it because something heavy has been dropped on the wooden floor, or has it been impacted?Wright squatted down and carefully touched the floor next to the table. Although it was difficult to detect it with the naked eye, he could still feel the dent in the floor with his hands.
The corner of the table was damaged, and it was suspected that it had been hit by a heavy object... Wright touched the edge of the table, and the originally sharp place was now deformed.
Naruhodou Ryuichi stood up and walked towards the bathroom. As soon as he opened the door, the slightly pungent smell of disinfectant hit his face.
There was a white coat hanging on the shelf in the bathroom, still damp and not dry.In addition, everything in the washroom and bathroom is very neat, and there is nothing special about it.
After getting out of the relationship, Phoenix Phoenix slowly walked to the side of the pile of research equipment. Phoenix Phoenix didn't know how to use these things, but this didn't mean that he didn't know the uses of all the items - At least he still recognized the toolboxes piled next to the research equipment.
These toolboxes are all brand new, and even have plastic seals that have not been opened. However, the toolbox placed at the front seems to be a trial version. After opening, it contains maintenance supplies such as screwdrivers and wrenches neatly. It is shiny, I'm afraid. Not used at all.
Phoenix Ryūichi put the tool box back where it belonged and moved on to the direction of Christina's bed.
The bed was extremely neat, everything was in order, and it didn't look like anyone had slept there.Opening the closet on one side, there were a lot of clothes of the same style neatly placed on the other side.
Do you like this outfit so much... Wright Phoenix silently closed the door.
After collecting intelligence, he already had some guesses. Although there was no more strong evidence to support it, Phoenix Wright believed that someone entered Christina's room and attacked her. and table legs were damaged.
Although we don’t know how the battle is going, judging from the fact that Christina is missing now, it seems that the murderer has won.
But there are still many doubts that have not been solved, and we need to find other evidence——
"Ah, everyone, I seem to have found something interesting..."
Hearing the sound, everyone walked towards the balcony, and Nagito Komaeda was leaning on the railing and looking at everyone happily, and then pointed to the railing on the side: "It seems that my luck is pretty good, actually. Found such an important clue.”
At first glance, Cheng Butang Ryuichi didn't seem to notice anything special, but soon his eyes became sharp and he walked forward quickly.
On the upper side of the circular railing handrail, there is a shallow groove, a semicircular shape, as if a groove was created by a cylinder flying past.
The railings were made of wood, and the wood in the grooves had scorch marks. Phoenix Ryūichi put his nose close and smelled it, and found that he could still smell a faint smell of gunpowder.
