"Who made you—"

The moment Wright turned around to look at Nagito Komaeda, he opened the supermarket door and bumped into someone.

And after seeing clearly who the person who collided with him was, Phoenix Wright suddenly screamed in his heart that something was wrong.

Sure enough, the next moment a screaming female voice sounded in the villa.

"Narubutou, why did you release the murderer?!!"

Chapter 371

Oh, it’s this woman!

As soon as he saw the iconic long red hair, Wright's stomach began to hurt, and after hearing her scream, he started to sweat profusely.

"You, listen to my explanation!"

So is it possible that Chinami Miyanagi will listen to Phoenix Wright's explanation?

Absolutely not. Even if Chinami Miyanagi would rather chat with ants on the roadside for three hours, she would not listen to a few words of explanation from Phoenix Wright!

Unsurprisingly, other people were quickly alerted by Miyanagi Chinami's loud calls and rushed over, shocked by the situation in the villa.

"Komaeda Nagito?! When did you come out!"

Sugou Nobuyuki, who was the first to arrive, was shocked when he saw the green figure in the supermarket. Finally, his eyes full of anger immediately stared at Wright Phoenix: "Did you let this guy out? I wanted to You were the one who took the lead in resisting when we asked him to be deported, and now you secretly release him, what are your intentions?"

"Well, I-I didn't do anything! I just came to the supermarket to get a bag of coffee, and I just met him!"

But Sugou Nobuyuki obviously didn't believe this explanation: "You didn't do anything? You are still holding his hand now! The two of them looked sneaky, they must be planning to do something together later. Bad thing...you won't be persuaded by him like Miyano Meimei and are ready to start killing people, right?"

"I'm wrong!"

Sugou Nobuyuki's suspicious eyes made Phoenix Wright almost jump in discomfort. How could he, a lawyer who upheld justice, commit murder? !But Ryuuichi Naruhodou was speechless now, because in this scene, his suspicion was indeed too great. It looked like he had released Nagito Komaeda, and the two of them acted secretly together.

At this time, Kayaba Akihiko and Kishibe Rohan, who were originally guarding the first floor, also arrived. Their faces were still a little tired after staying up all night, but now they understood the situation immediately after seeing the scene.

"Before we quarrel, how about putting him back in the room?" Kishibe Rohan yawned: "Control him first, so that we can drink some coffee to wake up and then discuss this matter slowly."

"Hmph, that makes sense. I think it's best to lock Phoenix in there too. He's so sneaky that he almost looks like an accomplice!"

Sugou Nobuyuki's speech against Phoenix Wright Ryuichi was immediately supported by Chinami Miyanagi, and she also looked at him with a rare look of approval: "That's good, I support it too. It's best to add a few more chains. Save the two of them from escaping again."

As expected, she is indispensable for things that are directed at me...

Naruhodou Ryuichi felt helpless, but now he did look suspicious, so he had no choice but to obediently join the others in surrounding Komaeda Nagi and chase him away.

to his room.

"At least let me have something to eat..." Nagito Komaeda complained: "I was pushed down by the shelves as soon as I arrived at the supermarket, and I haven't even eaten a piece of bread yet."

Nagito Komaeda's stomach growled, but sadly, no one paid attention to him, and in the end he could only be dragged back to his door on the third floor hungry.

"I also picked up two rolls of tape from the supermarket." Miyanagi Chinami looked at Nagito Komaeda's hands and feet while holding the tape: "Although the iron chain still needs to be locked, the hands and feet must be tied with tape before locking. It’s safer to get up.”

"That's too cruel, Chinami. I hope you can at least consider my human rights..."

"Oh, don't say stupid things. How can a murderer have any human rights?" Miyanagi China said righteously.

How do you have the right to say this?Looking at Miyanagi Chinami, whose face was full of righteousness, as if she was not a death row prisoner but the embodiment of justice, Phoenix Wright complained silently in his heart.

Without any more nonsense, Naruhodou Ryuichi opened the door to Komaeda Nagito's room. However, what he saw was pitch black, the curtains were drawn, and the room was very dark. , everything looks blurry.

"Why don't you turn on the light?" Miyanagi Chinami asked in disgust as she touched the switch on the wall: "The room is so dark that it doesn't look like a place where serious people live."

"It's not that I don't want to turn it on, it's just that I can't turn it on." Nagito Komaeda, whose hands were already tied with tape, shrugged helplessly: "After being locked in the room, there seemed to be something wrong with the light bulb. It flickered on and off. Then the light bulb turned on and off. It seems to be completely burned and it won’t light up anymore.”

"It's actually true..." Miyanagi Chinami found the switch and pressed it several times in succession, but the lights in the room didn't respond at all, which made her sigh in displeasure: "The program crew is really sick. , then Margaret would come to someone’s room early in the morning to fix the TV when she was free, and she wouldn’t even fix the light bulb.”

"Let me open the curtains." Sugou Nobuyuki sighed helplessly, and then walked to the balcony opposite the room: "Fortunately, it is daytime now. If it was in the middle of the night like Christina's time, then nothing would happen. can not see clearly--"

Suddenly, Sugou Nobuyuki's voice was stuck.

"What's wrong?" Phoenix Wright asked casually, breathing the air in the room with some confusion.

Strangely, there is a familiar smell in this room, although it is relatively light, but this faint smell of rust, how come it feels a bit like...?

No, no, no, Komaeda is standing next to him now, and everyone is also there. He must be overthinking——

Wait a minute, Nanami seems to be away now? !

"I, I seem to have kicked something..." At this time, Nobuyuki Sugou's voice also sounded, his voice was a little trembling, even showing a little fear: "It seemed to be, it seemed to be... ....!"

"That's enough, stop talking so much nonsense!"

Ryūichi Naruhodou's heart sank. He didn't care to listen to Nobu Sugō's moans anymore, and ran quickly to the balcony on the other side, then grabbed the curtain and pulled it open!

The next moment, the scene hidden in the darkness finally appeared in front of everyone.

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but the moment the sun shines into the house, the smell of rust in the air suddenly becomes stronger.

In the room, a girl with short pink hair fell to the ground, scarlet blood spreading under her body, turning the cute satchel that never left her body red.The game console that never left my hand fell to the ground, and even the screen was shattered.And those eyes that were very gentle at all times have long lost their shape, as if covered with a layer of dust.

Such a situation requires no further explanation.

"Hey—!"

Nobuyuki Sugou, who was the closest, was so frightened that he sat down on the ground, pushing back on his hands and feet with a look of horror on his face.The others also fell into silence for a moment, looking at the figure lying on the ground in silence, and then——

"Hahahahaha!!"

The sound of belly laughter suddenly sounded.

Chapter 372 Betting on the lawyer’s honor!

"...What are you laughing at, Komaeda?"

Naruhodou Ryuichi slowly turned his head and glared at Nagito Komaeda who suddenly laughed for some reason. His eyes were full of coldness and seriousness: "What's so funny?"

"What's so funny about Nanami being killed? That's your friend!"

"What's so funny...?" Nagito Komaeda murmured with a hint of trance in his tone, but then it turned into an even more uncontrollable excited laughter: "There's really nothing funny, but It’s the fact that there’s nothing to laugh about that’s the funniest thing!”

"Ah, that Nanami-san, Nanami-san who never thought of harming other people was killed like this - hahahahahaha!" Not caring about the surprised and uncertain eyes of the people around him, Komaeda Nagito laughed wildly, that His heartfelt laughter left him breathless.

The spiral patterns were spinning in his eyes like a chaotic whirlpool, making his voice become more enthusiastic and excited: "Once again, once again, my dear Nanami classmate was killed in front of me. I thought I was so desperate. You can only experience it once in your life. I didn’t expect to experience it again today - ah, this feeling is really..."

"Nanami-san who valued my friends, Nanami-san who didn't dislike me even if I was regarded as a murderer, Nanami-san who didn't give up on me even though he knew I was a desperate remnant - just died like this... Hehehehehehe Ha ha ha ha!?!"

"It's so wonderful!!! Don't you think so?! Such a desperate feeling!!!"

Komaeda Nagito's completely crazy performance made even Kayaba Akihiko and Kishibe Rohan, who had always been very calm and calm, couldn't help but take a few steps away from him. After all, Komaeda Nagito now looks like he has fallen into a cult. Like a fanatic believer, no matter what kind of things such a madman does, it is not weird.And a gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall. Although the tied Nagito Komaeda should not be very dangerous, it is still better to be just in case.

......despair?

Naruhodou Ryuichi took a deep look at Nagito Komaeda, who was completely stunned, and finally ignored him and went straight to Nanami Chiaki's body lying on the ground.

I'm sorry, but for him, Naruhodou Ryuichi, despair does not exist.Because he is a lawyer, a lawyer who has inherited the spirit and will from outstanding teachers and predecessors.

No matter how desperate the situation is, he will turn it around with his own hands - [reverse] it!

-

When he walked to Nanami Chiaki, Naruhodou Ryuichi had completely calmed down, or no matter how excited he was, his sanity had been completely restored at this time.

Nanami, a well-behaved child, gave herself a lot of trust and helped him a lot in many places.As an adult who had high hopes from her children, in the end he not only failed to respond to her expectations, but he even failed to prevent her death.

This is just a dream game, so don’t take it too seriously?

...Ryuichi Cheng Butang would never accept this kind of thing.

The next moment, Wright's hand reached into the pocket of his suit, and then he slowly took out a shining badge and pinned it on his chest.

The Lawyer's Medal - According to the regulations, this thing is just a souvenir for Ryuichi Wright who has been deprived of his lawyer's qualifications.But for Naruhodou Ryuichi himself, this badge represents his self and life.

"Betting on my dignity as a lawyer, there is no way the prisoner can escape punishment."

......

The first step is to confirm the victim's condition.

Naruhodou Ryuichi squatted down and tested Nanami Chiaki's pulse. As expected, the situation had already calmed down.

"...The victim was confirmed dead. The cause of death was most likely a heavy blow to the head."

Lifting up Nanami Chiaki's hair, which was completely soaked in blood, a shocking wound appeared on the back of her head. Even the skull was crushed and sunken, and a few white bone residues were revealed among the blurred flesh and blood.Apart from this, there are no other obvious wounds on the body. If the possibility of poisoning and then faking the scene is ruled out, then the only wound is probably a fatal injury.

"The deceased's face was down, with a sofa behind him. There was also some blood on the sofa. It can be considered that he was attacked from behind while sitting on the sofa. And the murder weapon..." Naruhodou Ryuichi took out his arms. Handkerchief, and then carefully picked up a hammer that fell aside and was stained with blood: "It should be this hammer."

Phoenix looked at the hammer carefully. If viewed as a tool, its size and shape would be a bit exaggerated.

The overall length is about 30 centimeters, but the size of the hammer head is similar to the length, and it is even shaped like a mouse with a sharp front and a round back.If it weren't for the heavy weight of the hammer in his hand and the hard texture of the hammer head, Ryuichi Wright might even think it was a balloon toy designed for children based on its appearance.

This kind of specially designed thing must have its purpose and cannot appear out of thin air.After observing the surroundings, Wright accidentally discovered a machine with the same shape as a hammer-head mouse on the other side of the room - a whack-a-mole machine.

There were various game paraphernalia piled up in that corner. When he sent Komaeda Nagito back to his room and locked it up, Phoenix Wright noticed the corner that was obviously used for entertainment, but he didn't check it carefully.

I thought there would be no major problems with the equipment in some slot machines and game arcades, but I didn’t expect there were such dangerous items inside...

Wright clenched his fists subconsciously, but then forced himself to calm down.Rather than doing the pointless thing of calling Margaret in to question her about why she placed dangerous items in the room, it would be better to search the crime scene carefully.

Next to the corpse, the game console Nanami Chiaki never left his hand fell to the side.The screen was shattered, but luckily it still lit up when Ryuichi Naruhodou picked it up.

But the game console itself was still broken, and all you could see was the corrupted standby interface and the time that had stopped long ago.

"The time of the crime was, 27:[-] in the morning..."

Wright touched the broken screen glass. If he guessed correctly, the game console should have been dropped to the ground and broken when Nanami was attacked, so the time it paused was the time Nanami was attacked.

"There are no traces of fighting nearby...they are all clean."

By now, Phoenix Wright Ryuichi had roughly planned out the development of the incident in his mind. When Chiaki Nanami was sitting on the sofa at 02:30 in the morning, he was suddenly hit in the back of the head with a gopher hammer from behind and died on the spot.

But the shape of the hammer was so obvious, and holding it around behind her... No matter how natural Nanami was, she wouldn't let someone she was completely unfamiliar with do such a thing.

So...an acquaintance committed the crime?

Chapter 373 Sugou: Damn damn faggot!!

No, this possibility should not be high... Although Nanami is easy to talk to, it does not mean that she is not vigilant.Under the current situation, no matter who is holding such a suspicious object behind him, it is impossible for Nanami to not notice it, not even Komaeda.While Nanami has a certain level of trust in Komaeda, it's clear that she's more wary of him now for some reason.

So it’s not that I didn’t raise my guard, but that I didn’t notice?The murderer sneaked up from an angle that Nanami couldn't detect, and then struck suddenly.

Wright stood up and took stock of the environment in the room.

The location of Nanami's body is in the northwest corner of the room. A large TV and game console are hung on the west wall. Opposite the TV is a large L-shaped sofa. Nanami's body lies between the TV and the sofa. .

Behind the sofa is the balcony door. Going east, in the northeast corner of the room is an entire entertainment area filled with various game equipment. The whack-a-mole machine is in the northwest corner near the balcony door.

The southwest side of the room is the bathroom and bathroom, and the southeast side is the bed and wardrobe.

4 areas with very clear functions...

Ryūichi Naruhodou briefly inspected the room and found no suspicious traces, so he should be able to rule out the possibility that Nanami's body was moved after his death.

Silently walking back to Nanami Chiaki's body, Ryūichi Naruhodou stood where she originally sat and looked around. He found that from this angle, he could see the main entrance of the room, and it was impossible for anyone entering the room to avoid her. vision...

The strange situation made Wright frown. He stood up and went to the balcony door again to look outside, where the white snowstorm was still there.Beyond the guardrail of the balcony, there was a cliff so deep that it gave him a fear of heights.

Suppressing the fear in his heart, Phoenix Wright walked into the balcony. Due to the snowstorm, the place was already filled with snow. As soon as he stepped in, it was directly covered with snow to his ankles.

The important thing is that there are no footprints, and the two-finger-high snow on the railing shows no signs of being tampered with.Standing in the center of the balcony, Naruhodou Ryuu raised his head. There was no longer a new balcony above him, but the sky covered by wind and snow.

So not intruding from the balcony...but, how is that possible?

There are only two places in this room that are connected to the outside world, one is the doorway, and the other is the balcony.There was no trace of anyone passing by on the balcony, and the door was in the direction that Nanami had been looking at before she died. It was impossible for anyone to come in without attracting her attention!

What misunderstanding was there? Was Nanami really attacked by an acquaintance without warning?

Maybe she was too absorbed in playing the game so she just looked at the screen and didn't notice anyone entering the room...?

Wright walked back to the room, shook off the snowflakes on his body, and came to the TV again.There was a game console connected to the TV on the ground. It seemed to be a classic model that had been popular for many years. After turning on the TV, the home screen of the game console immediately appeared.

So Nanami was really playing games at that time?

Phoenix looked at the sofa, where a game controller was thrown, and it was located next to Nanami.He walked over and picked up the game console and looked at it. There was no blood or anything like that on it...

Wait, is this...?

Silently putting down the handle he was holding, Wright could feel that he had now grasped some of the chaotic thoughts.

Then, let’s check the condition of the body again except for the wounds.
