Women only affect the speed of my reasoning!

But this library is quite old, and many of the facilities inside are from several years or even more than ten years ago. For an elevator like this without an anti-door-picking device, as long as the person picking the door is strong enough——

"Go!"

With a muffled grunt, Qin Ushu's arms suddenly exerted force, and the muscles in his arms that didn't seem to be strong were now showing.

squeak! ! !

The floor trembled slightly, and with a dull and heart-wrenching sound, the elevator hall door was forcibly opened by a large gap from the outside, and the wind mixed with the smell of engine oil and rusty metal suddenly poured out from inside. .

"Come on, let me be healthy~"

Qin Xianshu took over the phone again.

The light shone in the elevator shaft, and he poked his head through the gap in the hall door.

In the dark vertical space, the tough steel cables swayed slightly. At the top was a space made of reinforced concrete more than ten meters high, with various electronic circuits clinging to it.

Below, a cold male corpse lay quietly on his side on the roof of the elevator.

His eyes were wide open, and his expression was extremely distorted. It seemed that he had experienced very cruel treatment before his death, and his suit was messy and damaged.

Qin Sanshu jumped in lightly on one side, and Yukiko standing next to him didn't even have time to stop him. By the time he reached out his hand, the guy was already kneeling on one knee and landed firmly next to the body.

Putting on gloves and turning the corpse from lying on its side to lying flat, Qin Mianshu lowered his eyes on the deceased's neck with clear dark purple strangulation marks. His free hand took out from his clothes pocket what he had previously found in the coffee shop. Photo obtained from Mrs. Tamada.

"The cause of death was probably strangled by someone sneaking up from behind. The identity of the deceased...is correct."

After he finished speaking to himself, he raised his head and looked up at Yukiko, who was standing at the elevator entrance looking like she was thinking about getting off but didn't know how to get off.

"There's no need to come down. Just wait for the police to come and dispose of the body."

With that said, Qin Xianshu switched the phone to camera mode, turned on the flash function and took two photos of the corpse at his feet, then sent it back to the Mumu Police Department, along with a location.

As for this point, the Mumu Police Department happened to be sitting on the sofa in the living room after dinner, drinking tea and watching TV with his wife, and suddenly saw a photo of a corpse on his mobile phone and was so shocked that he spit out a mouthful of tea. Didn't think about it at all.

After sending the photo, Qin Sanshu put away his phone and jumped up, kicking on the wall of the elevator shaft and flying up like a flying ape.

Two seconds later, he pulled open the hall door and got out.

Standing still on his feet, Qin Mianshu patted the dust that he accidentally picked up in the elevator shaft, cleared his throat and said.

“That way all the logic is sorted out.”

"No, there's no reasoning at all. It's just a matter of logically arranging the plot."

"The reason should be that the director of this library has been secretly selling drugs in this way, but one day this secret was discovered by Kazuo Tamada who stayed at night to work overtime, so the director did not stop doing anything and simply killed people and silenced them. ."

“We just saw that”

"Well... Now that the body and the evidence have been found, do you want to go back first? It should be enough to leave the rest to the police, right?" Yukiko asked after thinking.

"Do not."

Qin Xianshu glanced at her and slowly showed an extremely happy smile.

"Now, I'm going to launch a kickass attack."

"..."

In the square in front of the library, an old figure disappeared in the darkness and walked forward.

He is the real mastermind behind this entire incident, and he is also the director of this library - Hideharu Tsugawa.

The dusk in the square was heavy. After all, this area actually belonged to the library. The library itself did not install street lights. Naturally, the Japanese government would not pay this unjust amount of money.

So every night, almost no one comes to this place.

The evening wind blows, and the air is gloomy, but there is light coming.

Director Jinchuan, who was walking in the square, only felt a hazy light coming from behind without warning, illuminating his back and also illuminating the ground under his feet.

The murderer suddenly stopped and turned around in shock.

On the second floor of the library, the lights are as bright as day!

56 next time

If one could rank Japanese detectives in order of their bad taste, Qin Ushu would undoubtedly be among the best.

It's hard to say whether there's anyone who can be more evil than him, but he's definitely not far behind.

To give the simplest example, what is the most fearful thing for a person who has done something wrong and has a ulterior motive?

There is no doubt that the secret he wanted to hide was discovered.

So Qin Ushu directly found the main light switch on the second floor of the library and pressed it without hesitation, treating the entire library as a huge strobe.

If I had been a child, this would have been a very evil act that would have required my mother to add a meal of bamboo shoots and roasted meat.

From an outside perspective, the lighting control system of this library seems to be out of order.

It was still on the second floor of the library, the light turned on and off, and Qin Sanshu's face flickered on and off repeatedly in Yukiko's eyes.

It was difficult for her to describe her mood at this moment in words.

If I had to say it, it would probably be - I couldn't understand it, but I was greatly shocked.

She had to raise her voice to keep her voice from being drowned out by the click of the light switch as it flipped repeatedly.

"So...what are we doing now?"

"doing what?"

Qin Xianshu poked her fingers rhythmically and her tone was as normal as ever.

"Of course it forced the murderer to return to the library. As soon as he left, he discovered that there were lights flashing at a special frequency in his carefully designed hiding place. It was clear that someone was doing this deliberately."

"I think the curator must be panicking and rushing back at full speed now."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a faint "ding" coming from the floor beneath his feet.

"I can't believe that I still have the leisure time to take the elevator." Qin Xian was relieved.

He stopped flipping the main light switch and turned off the lighting facilities on the entire floor.

Darkness enveloped again.

"let's go."

In the darkness, someone picked up the heavy dictionary, and Qin Sanshu took the initiative to hold Yukiko's hand, her tone full of pleasure that big news was about to be made.

He is not a violent man, nor does he have any special interest in beating people. It can even be said that his moral sense is somewhat chaotic.

But as a fun person, he is real.

The elevator goes all the way up, and it doesn't take much time to get from the first floor to the second floor.

Soon, with another crisp "ding", the elevator door slowly moved toward both sides next to the electronic display where the upward arrow stopped flowing.

The pale light broke through the darkness, and the old figure slowly walked out of the elevator.

Jinchuan Xiuji looked around cautiously, but all he could see was pitch black.

And just when he was about to take out the flashlight, he saw a dog thief running out of the darkness like lightning, and at the same time the Xinhua Dictionary in his hand fell with great force.

"The chicken... one bite... throw the tiles away!"

boom!

There was a sound of headshot, and the curator fell heavily to the ground.

……

In fact, Tsugawa Hideharu has always been a very cautious person, but he also has the courage necessary for a successful person.

And at the same time, he is also a businessman. As a businessman, peace is the most important thing in everything.

A person with such a personality and style, in one sentence, deserves success.

It's a pity that Tsugawa Hideharu is obviously a late bloomer.

He spent the first half of his mediocre life in this library, starting from a small clerk until now, after all the people with higher qualifications than him retired, he finally took the position of director.

Being a curator means that you have a certain amount of power.

And if you have power, deals will naturally come to you.

It's just that some transactions are legal, and many more are illegal.

Jinchuan Xiuji, who had been poor all his life, did not hesitate to choose the one that brought in money the fastest.

This is a sign of his courageous character.

He was even brave enough to kill his employees who found out about his crooked ways of making money and dump their bodies in a dark elevator shaft.

But at the same time, he is also cautious.

He relied on an unexpected sneak attack to kill Tamada Kazuo, but when he was taking the elevator just now, the first thing Tsugawa Hideharu thought of was not to fight, but to negotiate.

Obviously, since the other party used such means to force him to return to the library, there was no doubt that he did it deliberately. At the same time, he did not choose to call the police, which meant that he did not want to fight him to the death.

Then the answer is very clear. Although the other party discovered his secret, he did not intend to expose it, but wanted to make a deal.

Tsukawa Hideharu thinks so.

So in the process of going up to the second floor, he had already thought of more than four conversation templates in just ten seconds, which can be said to be as stable as an old dog.

What Tsukawa Hideji never expected was that the other party would be so unconventional and give him a sap when he came up.

What kind of gatekeeper is this...

The moment before his consciousness completely fell into darkness, Tsugawa Hideharu felt very calm.

He didn't even have time to get angry before he passed out completely.

It was half an hour later when I woke up.

The so-called now and then, when Tsugawa Hideharu took the elevator to the second floor, the entire second floor of the library was pitch black.

When he regained consciousness, he found himself in a very familiar children's book area.

All the lights are turned on, and the huge library is bright and bright. The numerous bookcases arranged in order have been emptied, and all the books are stacked on the ground.

A large number of people in police uniforms were passing through, checking all the books thoroughly. They would read each book from beginning to end. If there were no problems, they would continue to search the next one.

On the side, there are many small white paper bags piled up.

Voices such as "I discovered it" and "It's also here" kept coming and going.

Jinchuan Xiuji's still groggy brain gradually understood the current situation, and his face became paler.

completely over...

got caught...

He wanted to escape, but couldn't.

A wide transparent plastic bag wrapped around Tsugawa Hideji's whole body and tied him into a position where he was sitting cross-legged on the ground with his hands behind his back.

He couldn't even lie down, so he could only sit on the ground like a tumbler, staring at the scene in front of him.

Not far away, a young man who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old was sitting on a stack of books half as tall as a man, with a handsome demeanor and casually playing with a book as thick as city wall bricks in his hand.

Next to the boy, there was another pretty girl of about the same age.

At this time, a police officer with a potbellied appearance came over.

"Brother Usama Shu, we have found and disposed of Tamada Kazuo's body, but such a large library still needs a complete investigation, which is estimated to take a long time. Why don't you go back first?"

"Huh? Oh okay, then the rest of the work will be left to you at the police department."

After hearing what the Mumu Police Department said, Qin Sanshu responded and put away the dictionary in his hand.

He stood up from the stack of books, nodded towards Yukiko, and took steps to leave.

But a generous hand grabbed his shoulder.

Mumu Police Department took a breath and said with some seriousness: "Brother Xianshu, from the perspective of my work, I really need to thank you for this incident, but from my personal perspective, I hope you will find these clues again in the future. You can contact our police in time instead of putting yourself at risk. After all, it is our criminal police's job to fight against drug dealers, do you understand?"

"I understand, I will do it next time."

Qin Sanshu waved his hands perfunctorily, and then left with Yukiko.

After the two left, Mumu took off his round hat, wiped the unnecessary sweat on his forehead, and muttered.

"It turned out to be another one. Fortunately, Sato didn't come today."
