Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 1815 1814 [Uzo Research Notes]

   "There's nothing to be afraid of thunder and rain, and Uzo can't control the weather. This actually shows that what's happening now has nothing to do with him."

  Hashimoto Maya hid in a room that looked very safe, took a sip from the teacup, and suppressed his shock.

Looking at the brightly lit residential buildings in the distance, he murmured to himself, "It's just that the weather reminds me of the terrible thunderstorm on the plane... But what does it have to do with me? As long as I don't By going out there and not touching anyone else, I wouldn't be dragged to the center of the stage."

  Thinking of this, thinking of the two guards who were still busy outside with a group of students and hadn't come back yet, Maya Hashimoto sighed with pity and sympathy: "...good luck to you all."

   Just about to go back to the bed and sit down to rest, at this moment, a panicked figure suddenly ran across the corridor dozens of meters outside the window.

   "...?"

  Hashimoto Maya thumped in his heart, looked again, and confirmed that it was really a person: "..." Running out alone in the middle of the night, is this person dead? !

  He was silently shocked in his heart, completely forgetting that he was also a ruthless lunatic who walked alone in the deep and dark night, and singled out the target of the organization.

  Although there is no evidence, Hashimoto Maya seems to have seen a bad premonition that is about to come true—it seems that an invisible curtain that hangs over the heads of all islanders is slowly opening.

  …

a few minutes ago.

  Matsuzaki Haru returned to his room, without even turning on the light, strode to the bathroom, washed his face with cold water, and then exhaled heavily.

She thought she had walked out of the accident three years ago, but when she actually stood on the stage again, Matsuzaki Haru realized that the too dazzling figure seemed to be hovering on the stage all the time, never leaving, making her All the rest of them were reduced to supporting roles and shadows.

Just like when my brother went to the drama club to visit, those gentle eyes should have been watching her the whole time, but in fact, Matsuzaki Masahiko's eyes all fell on Tsukishima Touko, as if only she was the real bright moon, Others are just supporting stars.

  The old theater just now was not equipped with good sound-absorbing equipment, and no music was played during rehearsals. Therefore, the audience sitting in the front row may not know that what they think is "talking to themselves" often drifts to the ears of the actors on the stage.

"Is there really such a big gap?" Haru Matsuzaki smiled wryly and wiped the water from his face, "Even today, three years later, you will be full of praise, saying 'we are not as good as her' hurts so much." people's words."

  She was talking to herself in the mirror, but suddenly she felt something was wrong.

  There is something pressed against the cabinet door next to the mirror, as if the cabinet door has been opened by someone.

  Matsuzaki Haru opened the cabinet door suspiciously, raised his eyes, his eyes froze suddenly, and his pupils trembled slightly.

   This place was originally where she placed all kinds of toiletries and cosmetics. Although Matsuzaki Haru has lively short hair, it is only to distinguish her from Takawako Toda. Before she fell in love with her brother, she was also a gentle schoolgirl with long hair.

  In fact, she loves beauty very much. She must put things neatly, so that there is a fixed interval between cosmetics.

But at this time, those intervals were violently disrupted: the small cabinet, which was just right, became crowded and messy because something that shouldn't be there was squeezed in—among many beautiful bottles and jars, A brown-black glass bottle was placed abruptly in the middle, with a label that had been burnt and was so old that it was a little faded.

  Matsuzaki Haru stretched out his hand, picked it up tremblingly, and saw that the words on the label could still be read: [sulfuric acid, HSO, 500ml]

  …sulfuric acid?

  A bottle of sulfuric acid that was spilled? !

  Great fear struck, Haru Matsuzaki shook his hand, the bottle fell on the sink, and the liquid spilled out onto the shower curtain beside him, burning off a corner in an instant. Only at this time did Matsuzaki Haru realize that there were a few lines of blood written on the shower curtain—

  [I want to make your face look like Toko Tsukishima]

  The impactful blood words make people feel like returning to the day when Toko Tsukishima jumped off the roof of the hospital with his ugly face burned by sulfuric acid.

  Matsuzaki Haru couldn't hold back the fear in his heart any longer, and let out a terrified scream. But there was a lot of wind and rain and thunder outside, and no one heard it.

   Sitting paralyzed on the ground for a while, Matsuzaki Haru stared at another message left by an unknown person, suddenly gritted his teeth, stood up tremblingly, turned around and walked out.

  …

  In the corridor, a tall figure hid in the dark, watching Matsuzaki Haru's leaving back, silently pushed his glasses.

  Bermode looked at Haru Matsuzaki, and then at the room where she hadn't had time to close the door, and quickly understood: It seemed that this female college student was frightened or threatened by something, so she rushed to the appointment alone.

"If the sea snake biting incident hadn't happened, Matsuzaki Haru would be living with Toda Takawako now. However, the case before going to the island made it impossible for them to sleep in the same room as before. In other words, it was precisely because of the sea snake incident that they had the conditions to walk into the net alone..."

  Bermode replayed everything that happened, and suddenly found to his surprise that he seemed to see a trace of the Uzobu net.

  —In the previous two cases, a female high school student directed and acted in an attempted suicide, and an accident in which she was bitten by a disguised sea snake, no one died, and without exception, none of them made the news.

Even if someone really reported it, if Belmode hadn't been specially invited into this group of people and had inquired about the inside story in advance, she would never have thought that such a deadly person would not be taken seriously by her at all. It turned out that it was only a piece of chess played by Wu Zuo.

   In other words, if he hadn't been involved in this incident, what Belmode would have seen afterwards would only be the case that happened on the island. Then, as before, she would sigh ignorantly that this young cadre is really terrifying.

   "From this point of view, Uzo's sudden and precise assassinations before were really not so-called good luck, let alone magic, but were paved bit by bit with great patience like this.

   "Those so-called coincidences and coincidences are actually all inevitable. It's just that his behavior is too hidden to be discovered by others."

"Amazing talent, extraordinary patience, and precise control of people's hearts. It turns out that those who achieve great things are the factors of both genius and hard work. Although the direction of hard work is creepy... But it is undeniable that it is these that created the powerful 'Uzo'."
