As a Ninja, I Just Want to Eat Soft Rice in the Moon

"Is this the spirit of your contract Hateres?" Dong Yezao seemed to be threatened, and his face became ugly.

"This is just a magician's method. Whether you can reasonably use the loopholes in the contract is also a way to test the magician's level, and you, Uchiha Koto, are obviously not a qualified magician."

'Caules' patted Dong Yezao's shoulder with disappointment and said: "Of course, what is going to happen next is not in my original plan. If you want to stop Hephaestion, you won't violate the contract. You can try it."

"Will you be killed by your servants then?" Dong Yezao slapped the hand of 'Colles' away without any politeness.

"You can also ignore El-Melloi II and spend these three days as a spectator."

'Colles' shrugged innocently, patted his clothes and walked out of the carriage.

Hephaestion also vanished in spirit, leaving only Kanou Higashino in the huge carriage.

"Do you really think you've won Hartrace?"

Looking at the back of 'Colles' fading away, Higashino said with a smirk: "You think you are on the second floor, but I am actually in the atmosphere. Those who play with the contract should also be prepared to be played by the contract." Prepare."

Higashino Kou accepted Kunai and was going to ask Weber some questions first.

"Ah ah ah ah ah----"

An ear-piercing scream spread throughout the car, Higashino Kou was stunned for a moment, and then quickly ran towards the screaming car.

As soon as he opened the door, Higashino saw Olga Marie kneeling in a pool of blood and weeping, and in front of her was a headless corpse.

Higashino knew the corpse, because the features of the corpse's clothes were obvious, and the dead person was Olga Marie's female secretary, Teresa.

……

In less than a quarter of a second, the news of the dead person in the train quickly spread to the ears of all the passengers.

Some passengers feared that they would be killed and hid in their rooms, while other passengers and train staff went to the scene of the crime together and temporarily acted as the police.

"I...I just went out to get some air...Teresa was dead when I came back..."

Olga Marie's tears kept pouring out like beans, and the pear blossoms in the whole body were crying with rain, which aroused pity.

Although Olga Marie was mature far beyond her age, she still couldn't keep calm when someone close to her died, crying like a girl.

All the people present were silent and did not speak, concentrating on thinking about the case. Even as smart as Weber, they were at a loss for a while, and couldn't think of any clues.

"is it you?"

Higashino glanced at 'Caules'. At the moment, 'Caules' was bursting out with acting skills, his face looked panicked but he was trying to restrain his emotions, acting just like Coules himself.

Higashino already had the answer in his heart. Although he didn't know what Hateres' method of killing was, everyone at the scene thought he was the villain. The motive for the killing was unknown, but he was probably the murderer.

Looking at Tereza who was still chatting friendly with him in the morning, she turned into a headless corpse at noon. For some reason, Higashino felt a little angry.

Chapter 107 105. Trisha's Death

Higashino has always had a good sense of Tereza, and thinks she is a very educated and reasonable person, and it makes people feel happy to get along with her.

Although we haven't known each other for a long time, Higashino still felt an inexplicable pain in his heart when he saw Tereza die in front of his eyes in such a tragic way. When the ninja died tragically in front of him.

Although Higashino Sou is a very selfish person, selfishness does not mean inhumanity. The sorrow of a rabbit dead and a fox is a common feeling of human beings.

It is true that a selfish person like Higashino Zuo would not be so passionate about a teammate whom he had only met a few times, rushing forward like an idiot to take revenge on an enemy who had no conflict of interest with him.

But this time the enemy happened to hit Higashino Kou's gun, and Higashino Kou didn't mind taking revenge for Teresa when he killed, and it didn't matter the fate between them.

But before taking revenge, Higashino has one more thing to do, which is to find out the cause of Teresa's death. Why did Hateres kill Teresa who had nothing to do with him?

Higashino took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Luvia.

A minute later, Luvia replied with two simple letters: OK.

"Elmero II, what do you think?"

Kakino Hishiri looked at Weber expectantly.

Weber's reasoning ability is obvious to all in the Clock Tower. He has solved countless cases. Nowadays, when many magicians think of Weber's name, they will subconsciously associate it with the "famous detective".

After Wei Bo was silent for a moment, he shook his head with an ugly face and said, "There are too few clues, so we can't see it yet, but Ms. Teresa is a person with future vision. If she can kill someone without seeing the future, the murderer must have a very good technique."

An emotion called panic spread among the crowd. No one thought that such a vicious murder would occur in an auction trip, and the victim was a person with a vision for the future. This made everyone present worry about their own safety. stand up.

Just when the panic became uncontrollable, the train staff, the host of the auction, the woman wearing a metal blindfold, Leondra, clapped her hands.

"Clap clap-"

"The next task of searching for prisoners will be taken over by our magic eye collection train. Please go back to your room and don't go out easily. The train will be responsible for your safety during the auction."

The host Leondra began to persuade the crowd to retreat with a calm face, and then walked in front of Olga Marie.

At this time, Olga Marie had recovered from her grief. Although her expression was still a little flustered, she was mostly rational, which was why Leondra judged that Olga Marie was able to communicate.

"Daughter of the monarch Animsfia, please hand over the body to us. We will preserve the body and send it to your Animsfia family."

The smell of blood has filled the entire room. In autumn weather, if the corpse is left alone, the corpse will soon rot and become moldy, and the stench of the corpse will fill the entire train. This will undoubtedly affect the next auction. carried out.

"Yes, yes."

Olga Marie was still a little choked up, but she still tried to reply calmly: "Please keep Teresa's body well, I will bury her in the family cemetery."

"as you wish."

Leondra smiled and bowed slightly, then clapped her hands lightly, Tereza's body sank into the floor of the train as if caught in a swamp, together with her blood.

After a while, the death scene was so clean that it didn't even have any peculiar smell, as if nothing had happened.

"Please leave, everyone, we will handle this case with the Magic Eye Collection Train."

Following Leondra's order, the crowd of onlookers dispersed one after another.

The vast majority of people hid in their rooms, hoping that the magic barrier could protect them. Only a small number of courageous people stayed outside. It was time to hang out and drink.

"Let's go too, the case has nothing to do with us." Weber sighed and was about to leave.

Although he was curious about the truth of the case, but now he has been burned by the thief who stole his holy relic, and he has no time to care about other things.

Just as Higashino was about to leave with Weber, Olga Marie's voice came from behind.

"Mercenary Uchiha Kanade, please wait a moment!"

Higashino and Weber looked at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes. Higashino took a step forward and asked, "Miss Olga, what can I do for you?"

"Aren't you a mercenary? Of course I'm looking for you to hire you."

Olga Marie's words still reveal the unique arrogance and unquestionableness of the nobleman, but the other party's crying red eyes and silver hair make people inexplicably think of cute creatures like rabbits. At this moment, Olga Marie is As pitiful as a baby rabbit.

"reason?"

Dong Yezao didn't immediately refuse, because of the red stockings, Dongye Zuo didn't want to hit her at this time.

"Teresa is dead. The murderer probably came to our Animsfia house. I can't protect myself by myself. I hope you can be my bodyguard for a while. price."

Olga Marie has personally experienced Higashinoza's terrifying strength.

The secretary was killed, and Olga Marie, who urgently needed to strengthen security measures, took a fancy to Higashino Kano's ability and background. She believed Higashino Kano could protect her and help her find the murderer.

And everyone present, apart from Higashino Sou, Olga Marie couldn't trust anyone, including Grey, who was harmless to humans and animals, and Weber, who had reached an alliance with her not long ago.

"This……"

Higashino touched his chin hesitantly.

On the one hand, he has promised Weber to be his bodyguard. Ninjas have a mission spirit. Erga Marie started.

Although Olga Marie is the daughter of the king of astronomy, it is not difficult for a magician to kill the daughter of the king, as long as the method is clever enough and the king does not find out.

At this time, Weber patted Higashino on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, you can go, I'll be fine with Grey."

"you sure?"

Higashino glanced at Grey, who was pale. The child had been out of shape since the train started, and his combat effectiveness plummeted.

"Protecting the safety of witnesses is also a means of finding the culprit. I have a hunch that the person who killed Ms. Teresa is the same person who stole my holy relic."

Weber paused and explained: "Since the murderer killed Ms. Teresa, Ms. Theresa must have some connection with the murderer. As Ms. Theresa's master, Miss Olga, there should be something she can do. Unaware of the clues, you will find something by following her."

ps: first update

Section 108 106. Employment of directors

"As expected of you, Weber, you easily thought of something we couldn't think of." Higashino gave Weber a thumbs up.

As a person who was completely kept in the dark, Weber could guess so easily that the murderer who killed Theresa and the thief who stole his holy relic were the same person. This kind of intuition of the truth is really terrifying.

Presumably even if he didn't do anything, it wouldn't take long for Weber to discover Hartrace's conspiracy.

"This is just a basic guess, nothing to be proud of." Weber was as humble as ever.

Now that Weber, the employer, has spoken, Higashino has no reason to reject Olga Marie.

Saying goodbye to Webb and the others, on the way back with Olga Marie, Higashino said: "Miss Olga, let me explain in advance that although the relationship between us is not bad, ninjas need to be paid for doing things. , if your reward is not satisfactory to me, I can only refuse."

"Ninja?"

Olga Marie glanced at Kanou Higashino with strange eyes, recalled it, and found that Kono Higashino's fighting style was indeed very similar to the oriental ninja recorded in the book, and she must have received ninja training before.

"Hmph, you really are a good-for-nothing magician who only works for money."

Olga Marie glanced at Higashino with contempt, raised a finger and said: "Ten million dollars, protect me for three days, is that enough?"

Sure enough, the monarch's family is very rich, except for the current El Mello!

Higashino nodded in satisfaction, then smiled and refused: "Varu (I refuse)!"

"?"

The dumb hair on Olga Marie's head turned into a question mark, and then said angrily: "Stop being greedy! The price I gave is already several times the market price!"

"Don't be angry, I don't have a problem with your money, I have a problem with all money."

Higashino reached out to comfort Olga Marie, and joked solemnly: "Actually, what is the use of money and what is the use of wealth. I have never touched money, and I am not interested in money."
