  Chapter 513 Stupid mortal

  When Duanmu Huai returned to the viewing platform again, the others also raised their heads and looked at him with uneasy eyes.

   "How is it? Mr. Detective, have you found the murderer?"

  Looking at Duanmuhuai, the male student who had greeted him before hurriedly asked, but when he heard his inquiry, the people following Duanmuhuai showed very complicated expressions. At first, they also thought that as long as they found enough evidence or clues, they could identify the murderer. As a result... the more clues they found, the more difficult it was for them to identify the culprit.

   "Okay, now let me say a few words."

  Duanmuhuai knocked on the table, signaling everyone to look at him, then he narrowed his eyes and stared at the other people in front of him.

  Among the characteristics of the current prisoner, the only thing that can be determined is that he smokes. Apart from this, there is basically no conclusive evidence. However, Duanmuhuai was not originally a detective like Conan or Sherlock Holmes who persuaded people with reason.

  He is better at convincing people with reason.

   "After searching, I found some interesting clues..."

  While talking, Duanmuhuai put the fragments of photos he got from Arthur's room on the table, and then looked at Arthur.

"So, Mr. Arthur, do you have anything to explain about this photograph? It's not just Dr. Rose, but the murdered Mr. Williams and Miss Ethel, and yet this photograph is in your The room was still torn apart, do you have any excuses for this?"

   "I have nothing to say."

   Facing Duanmuhuai's question, Arthur still had the arrogant attitude. Of course, when he saw Duanmuhuai, he restrained himself a little.

"This is a photo handed down from my family. About Dr. Rose, I have heard it from my family before. Indeed, I asked Dr. Rose to provide me with some medicines, but if you want to accuse me of murder because of this If so, that's another matter."

   "Huh? I'm in this picture too?"

  At this time, the maid Ethel also came over in surprise, looking at the photo carefully.

   "Ah, this may be my mother, I remember she said before that she also worked as a maid..."

"All right."

   Duanmuhuai temporarily put the photo aside, and then looked at Fred.

   "Mr. Fred, you should understand what we want to ask you. In your room, we found a large number of magic circles similar to the crime scene. What is your explanation?"

   "Of course I drew it."

  For Duanmuhuai's question, Fred didn't seem surprised, he spoke quickly.

"I also know some mysticism, so I can naturally see that that evil and weird magic circle will definitely bring some kind of terrible nightmare. Therefore, in order to protect myself, I will also draw some guardian magic in my cabin Array, to protect my safety!"

   Well, yes, for good reason.

   Duanmuhuai glanced at him, then looked away, and then fixed on the last suspect.

   "Mr. Bart."

  He signaled the navigator Bart to come in front of him, then took out the pocket watch from his pocket and threw it on the table.

   "I would appreciate it if you could explain to me why the victim's pocket watch is in your box."

"you………!"

  Seeing this pocket watch, the navigator Bart blushed immediately. He stared at Duanmuhuai with wide eyes.

   "I, I don't know what you're talking about..."

   "Sophistry is useless, Mr. Bart, so many people have seen that I took this pocket watch out of your box, so... You'd better be like them, and be able to give me an explanation."

   Duanmu Huai curled his lips, but his eyes were still looking at the navigator in front of him. The latter gritted his teeth under Duanmu Huai's gaze, and finally lowered his head.

"Okay, I said... I said...! Damn, I admit, I'm a thief. I always go to the guest's room to steal something after they leave the cabin. Everyone on our airship has Money people, they don't mind losing a little bauble! Same this time, I saw Mr. Williams leave his room, go to the smoking room, and then his cabin door wasn't locked, so I just I took the opportunity to go in and saw that the pocket watch on the bedside table was very valuable, so I stole it and ran away in a hurry. After a while, I heard someone calling for help, and I knew that Mr. Williams had been killed. I stole his pocket watch, but I definitely didn't kill anyone!"

"etc."

  Hearing this, Duanmuhuai frowned.

   "Did you see Mr. Williams go to the smoking room?"

"Yes."

   "So was he alone? What was his state of mind?"

"this…………"

   Facing Duanmuhuai's question, the navigator Bart recalled for a while.

   "I'm not sure, he is a person, but I don't know the mental state, because I only see the back but not the front."

"All right."

  After listening to Bart's defense, Duanmuhuai nodded.

   "The facts are already clear, the murderer is..."

   "The murderer is?"

  Hearing this, everyone present also concentrated their energy and stared at Duanmu Huai. Then, under the gaze of everyone, Duanmu Huai... spread his hands.

   "It doesn't matter who it is."

"…………Why???"

   I have to say that everyone was stunned when they heard Duanmuhuai's unexpected answer.

"what are you saying?"

   "You are only thinking about who is the murderer, but you have overlooked a very simple thing."

  Duanmu Huai leaned back on the sofa, the velvet sofa was creaked and deformed under his huge body.

"To be honest, the crime itself is not complicated, it's very simple, and there are still traces left at the crime scene. For example, those magic circles... the criminals drew with their fingers, so as long as we reach the destination and call the police, the police only need to extract the above Fingerprints, and then compared with everyone, it will be clear at a glance who the prisoner is."

   "Then why don't we do it?"

  Hearing this, a student from Shuo College called out, and Duanmu Huai shrugged.

   "It's very simple, we don't have the corresponding equipment, and comparing fingerprints itself is a very professional thing, not just anyone can do it. So do you understand?"

   "?????"

   Facing Duanmu Huai's words, everyone was still confused, but seeing them like this, Duanmu Huai sighed helplessly.

"The prisoner's actions are rough, and he destroyed the radio and cut off our connection with the outside world, so just think about it and the answer will come out - the prisoner is not afraid of his real body being exposed, because in the prisoner's plan, all of us will die it's here……"

   Having said this, Duanmuhuai raised his head and looked at the person next to him.

   "Are you right, Dr. Rose?"

"Why---?!"

  Hearing this, everyone turned their heads in surprise and looked at Rose, the doctor of "Full Moon and Stars". Under Duanmuhuai's gaze, the latter trembled slightly, then took a step back.

   "What are you talking about, I've been with you all the time, why am I a criminal! Do you have evidence?"

   "Evidence, of course I am..."

However, before Duanmu Huai finished speaking, Dr. Rose screamed suddenly, and then she jumped up in an unimaginable movement at the next moment, lying on the ceiling like a spider, staring at everyone fiercely .

   Duanmu Huai finished his words calmly.

   "...Of course I don't have any evidence. In fact, I just wanted to defraud you, but now it's all right. If you take the initiative to expose it, then I don't think I need to make any more reasoning."

  “………”

  Hearing this, Dr. Rose's complexion suddenly became as if she had eaten shit, she stared at Duanmuhuai fiercely, and gritted her teeth.

   "Why do you doubt me?"

   "Oh, the reason is actually very simple, that photo."

   Duanmu Huai pointed to the photo.

"photo?"

"That's right, that's a photo from twenty years ago, but you may not have noticed that the you on it are almost exactly the same as you are now. At least Miss Ethel gave me a reply that the maid in the photo might be her mother , but to you, there doesn't seem to be anything unusual about this photo itself, that is to say, you are completely used to appearing in front of everyone with this appearance."

   Having said this, Duanmuhuai looked at Dr. Rose with a half-smile.

"And you may not have noticed that I didn't ask about the relationship between you and Mr. Arthur. You can obviously say that you don't know, but you insist on saying that he threatened to blackmail you to prescribe him illegal drugs. So you Deliberately misleading everyone into a blind spot, that is, when a person commits one case, he will not commit another case. As long as you are a criminal suspect in an extortion case, the suspicion of becoming a murderer will be reduced... ...Of course, you can't fool the police with this trick, but it's more than enough to deal with ordinary people."

   Speaking of this, Duanmuhuai glanced at Arthur.

   "As for Mr. Arthur... Well, I have to say, your oboe is pretty good."

   "Mr. Detective, do you mean that Mr. Arthur is also a criminal?"

   "Of course, he is the accomplice, and Dr. Rose is the main culprit. The whole process was carefully planned by the two of them."

   Having said this, Duanmuhuai looked at the two with serious eyes.

   "So... If I'm not mistaken, you are all from the Silver Dusk Cabin."

   "Unfortunately, you know it too late, you idiots!"

  With a howl, Dr. Rose turned over and landed beside Arthur. The latter straightened his clothes and looked at everyone triumphantly. As for Dr. Rose beside him, her hands and feet were already thin and long like a spider, and even her face gradually began to crack, and her lower jaw was split in two, revealing the sharp inside. teeth and tongue.

  After that, Rose looked at the stunned and terrified crowd, opened her **** mouth and roared.

   "Nyarlathotep is coming back! And all of you will be sacrificed, be its sacrifices!"

   While screaming, Dr. Rose, who had transformed into a monster, rushed directly to Lorena who was blocking the door.

   "Look, this is the great power of Nyarlathotep, you can only die before its great power!!"

  Screaming, Dr. Rose stretched out her sharp claws, opened her mouth and threw herself at Lorena, trying to attack her.

  However, at this moment, a scene that no one could have imagined happened.

Facing Dr. Rose's attack, Lorena didn't dodge or evade. She just stood there, clenched the heavy holy book in her hand, and then leaped forward, avoiding Dr. Rose's twisted attack. With his arms torn apart, he came in front of her, facing Dr. Rose's face, he clenched the scripture in his hand, raised it high, and then took a heavy shot!

"boom!!"

  The next moment, everyone saw Dr. Rose screaming and flying upside down like a thrown bowling ball, hitting the wall next to her with her head, twitching and becoming silent.

  Seeing this scene, Arthur's face changed suddenly. He hurriedly took out a pistol from his pocket and aimed it at everyone.

   "Don't move, no one is allowed to come over, otherwise I will..."

  However, before Arthur finished speaking, he saw Duanmuhuai standing up from the sofa and striding towards him. Seeing that terrifying, huge figure, and that ferocious face, Arthur was terrified, his mind went blank, and he couldn't even pull the trigger!

  【You have deterred the cultist Arthur! 】

  【Cultist Arthur is in the process of appraisal——appraisal failed】

  【Cultist Arthur was surprised】

  【Cultist Arthur loses 1D6 sanity points】

  【Cultist Arthur fell into fear! 】

   "No, don't come here!!"

Arthur's eyes widened, looking at the figure walking towards him, his hands trembling crazily, even if he couldn't even pull the trigger, he could only watch Duanmuhuai come to his In front of him, and then... punched out.

"boom!!"

  The next moment, Arthur was directly punched by Duanmu Huai and flew into the air, then fell heavily on the ground, falling into a coma.

"alright."

   Duanmuhuai shook his hand, turned his head to look at the others.

   "Now, the case is considered settled."
