"Um……"

Xiaolan, the only one present who knew what the sea snake looked like, took the illustrated book and looked through it immediately.

Several other college students from the diving club also gathered nearby, staring intently and with bated breath, holding mobile phones in their hands, ready to call the hospital to report.

The book was turned page by page, and there was only the sound of paper dragging in the whole space.

Suddenly, Xiaolan's pupils shrank slightly, and she quickly reached out and pointed to the upper left corner of the open page in the booklet.

"That's the snake!"

The girl saw a black and blue sea snake in the picture in the illustrated book below. It was spitting out snakes and looked extremely venomous.

"Selective sea snake?" Itoyo read the label at a glance, "But why does this kind of sea snake appear in Izu?"

"Well, actually this is also possible."

The hotel manager said bravely.

"Although this kind of sea snake does not appear in Izu most of the time, it occasionally comes to Izu along the Kuroshio Current (Japanese Warm Current)."

"That is to say, did you choose to open the beach even though you knew there would be sea snakes this season?" Mouri Kogoro was furious.

"No, no, this kind of snake will hardly hurt people. Under normal circumstances, it will hide far away when it sees people. There has only been one injury incident in the past 40 years. That time it was because of a fisherman. I accidentally put the snake in a box and was bitten when I grabbed it with my hands.”

The hotel manager hurriedly waved his hand and explained.

"Then...are there any variants of this kind of snake?" Xiaolan asked.

"Variant?" The manager was stunned.

"Well, the snake I saw when I was underwater seemed to have two small wings on its back..."

Xiaolan pointed her index finger at the corner of her mouth and tried to recall.

"Maybe it's something like aquatic plants hanging in the sea?" Matsuzaki Haru, who had been silent until now, suddenly said.

"Then I would rather believe that the murderer is Rayquaza."

Serabel, who had changed her snack from squid tentacles to scallops, said calmly.

"And compared to this, I don't know if you have noticed one thing, that is, the location of the wound on Miss Toda's hand is two or three centimeters up along the middle finger, parallel to the wrist joint, in the center of the back of the hand, that is He said that if a sea snake wanted to bite that place, it would have to swallow Ms. Toda’s middle finger and ring finger first, and that was definitely not a place where a normal sea snake would bite.”

"That is to say, someone deliberately stabbed the back of Miss Toda's hand with the fangs of a sea snake." Fei Yingli, who had seen the photo in the restaurant, continued.

"To put it simply, that's it."

Serabel opened and closed her mouth and exhaled a breath with a strong smell of seafood.

"But the problem is that there was no one else around on the sea when Ms. Toda was drowning, which means that the only possible time to take action was when she went to rescue, and because the snake was too conspicuous to hold directly in the hand, So the murderer had to cover it up with something else... So the question is, who was the only person with something in his hand at that time?"

Fei Yingli added at the right time: "If I confess it frankly now, it can still be regarded as surrendering."

"That means..."

As soon as these two words were spoken, everyone in the room turned their attention to Haru Matsuzaki, who looked a little cowed.

Only Mouri Kogoro looked at Fei Yingli in a daze, and then at Serabel.

Why do you feel like these two people work well together? ?

Chapter 120 The Empty Affair

"Please wait a minute, this makes absolutely no sense!"

Just when everyone looked at Matsuzaki Haru in disbelief, Kawazu Kunio, who had a duck voice, retorted.

"According to what you said, even if someone really stabbed Kiwako with a sea snake, there is no reason to say that the murderer must be Haru. What's more, Haru was called back to the room to get a towel by Kiwako. He had something in his hand. Is that normal?"

"Then do you want to believe that the murderer is Rayquaza, or do you want to believe that the murderer is Miss Matsuzaki Haru?"

Serabel's simple and rude question made Kawazu Kunsheng speechless.

At that time, when Itoyo was helping Toda Takawako wash out the poisonous blood, everyone was watching, including Kawazu Kunio himself. He also knew very well that the location of the wound was exactly as the other party said. Strangely enough, it was not a place where a normal sea snake would bite.

"B-But even this is still far-fetched!"

Kawazu Kuni was still determined not to give up.

"And I also said that the towel on Haru's hand was because Kiwako asked her to go back to the room to get it, not because Haru took the initiative to go back to the room to get something. If it is really Haru's hand like you said, then Doesn’t she have to carry a snake with her at all times? After all, Haru doesn’t know when Kiwako will drown or whether he will give her a chance to go back to the room to get something before she drowns.”

"That's good. Actually, I haven't figured it out yet."

Serabel spread her hands and said matter-of-factly.

"So the only thing I can do now is tell you some things that can be logically inferred."

"In the final analysis, it's just random guessing without any basis..." Mouri Kogoro snorted unhappily from the side.

It wasn't that he was unhappy because he saw Fei Yingli and Sera Bell working together so well.

But as the only famous detective present, he didn't realize that this was a deliberate murder, but a young boy as old as his own daughter discovered it. Wouldn't he be very embarrassed?

Fortunately, it turned out to be nonsense.

"No, I don't think that's necessarily the case..."

At this time, Sera Masumi, who had been holding her chin in deep thought, spoke up.

"If I remember correctly, did Ms. Toda say anything to Mr. Matsuzaki after she was rescued ashore?"

"Looks like... isn't it?"

Kawazu Kuni was slightly startled.

He was the kind of person with an informal personality. He was in a hurry to save people, so he didn't care what he said.

I only remember what was actually said, but as for the specific content, I'm sorry, I don't remember it at all.

At this moment, Yi Dongyang, who had gone out to call the hospital earlier, pushed the door in from outside and recalled the conversation after hearing it.

"I remember that what Kiwako said at that time should be 'Masahiko, you are here, it's great'."

"'Very good'?"

Masumi Sera captures the key point.

"Based on common sense, this sentence is usually used when the user is in a very happy mood. That is to say, Miss Toda was actually very happy when she saw Mr. Matsuzaki running over to save her desperately. "

"That's for sure. Who doesn't hope that his boyfriend will risk everything to save him? Is there any problem with this?" Kawazu Kunsheng hadn't reacted yet.

"There is nothing wrong with this in itself. What I want to express is-"

Sera Masumi paused and slowly expressed his conclusion.

"Is it possible that the drowning itself was a deliberately arranged performance, or a test? The purpose was that Miss Toda wanted to test whether Mr. Matsuzaki would rush up to her when he saw her drowning, regardless of the fact that he could not swim at all. Save people.”

"But what's the point of doing that?"

This time it was Serabel's turn to be confused.

"Of course it has its own meaning, it's like being able to gain a sense of security from it." Huya girl shrugged, "I don't know, brother, girls are very insecure, especially those who are about to get married. , a large proportion of them will suffer from a disease called premarital anxiety disorder."

"So, as long as you don't see the person taking risks for you... you don't feel safe?"

Serabel was even more confused. He was a little confused about the logic of this.

Why don't you feel safe if you don't sacrifice your life to save others? But if you don't feel safe, why get married?

Besides, what if something unexpected happens during the test and some landlubber dies?

Oh, that's right, then even if the groom dies directly, there is no marriage partner left, so there is no need to get married, and there is no need to worry about getting married.

The logical closed loop is perfectly achieved.

So, having said that, why did you want to get engaged to him at that time?

"Well, you can't say that."

Brother Jianzi looked at him with an expression on his face, "So girls are such terrible creatures?" Sera Masumi was also slightly ashamed.

After all, her single history is as long as her biological age. She has no experience in love and love at all. All her understanding is basically through movies and TV series.

In short, this is how it is played in film and television works...

But how could such words be said in the current situation?

Just when the tiger-toothed girl was about to go crazy, Fei Yingli suddenly spoke up, with a smile of unknown meaning on her lips.

"That's true. After all, marriage is a lifelong event for both men and women. No one wants to entrust a lifetime event to the wrong person, so they will conduct various tests before marriage, just to avoid missing anything. Leading to a lifetime of misfortune.”

These words were spoken from the bottom of his heart, causing everyone present to fall silent.

cut……

The so-called listener has a heart, especially when he heard the "lifelong misfortune" in the last sentence, Mouri Kogoro's face suddenly became a lot awkward.

Even if Fei Yingli didn't tell him personally, after such a long time, he should almost know who helped him pay off the previous 800 million foreign debt.

Jingle Bell--

A burst of retro ringtone suddenly broke the dead silence of the scene.

Everyone subconsciously followed the sound, and Yi Dongyang raised his cell phone to signal.

"Sorry, it was Yayan who called."

After saying that, he clicked the call and put it to his ear. Within two seconds, joy bloomed on his wheat-colored face like an epiphyllum.

Neither party said anything on the phone. Yi Dongyang hung up the phone after humming twice and turned to the other people in front of him.

"Good news! The hospital said that Kiwako is out of danger!"

"Really?"

"Great!"

Life is priceless. Kawazu Kunio and others immediately cheered when they heard that their friend was successfully out of danger.

Except for one person—

Fei Yingli slightly curled up the corners of her mouth and then stopped smiling, and turned to look at Matsuzaki Haru who lowered his head and remained silent.

"Now that my life is out of danger, I think whether the drowning was a deliberately arranged performance will soon be confirmed from my own mouth. So Miss Matsuzaki, let me say it one last time. If you admit it now, it can still be regarded as surrender. Besides, I think the container used to hold the sea snakes at that time is still stored in the suitcase in your room and you haven’t had time to dispose of it, right?”

"..."

The topic circled around and returned to this. The collection room became quiet again, and all eyes focused on the short-haired girl.

After a moment of silence, Matsuzaki Haru sighed softly, loosened his fingers weakly, and let the towel still stained with sea snake bodily fluids fall to the ground.

"Yes, I did it."

"Because I'm jealous of that woman... Not only did she steal my Yayan, she even showed it off in front of me over and over again..."

As her deep-seated feelings were revealed little by little, the girl's originally innocent and innocent voice gradually turned fierce and resentful.

Gua!The emptiness of things~

Serabel complained in her heart, while subconsciously glancing at the tiger-toothed girl beside her.

Hmm~ It should be impossible for our Zhenzhen family to do such a thing. ?

Chapter 121 Mary: I caught the sneaky cat

Since there were no police personnel at the scene, and Serabel was not the kind of Mr. Wayne who vowed to bring all evil to justice, and this was considered someone else’s household chores, we finally decided after discussion. Let several other college students in the same diving club inform the other two parties in the hospital and let them solve the problem on their own.

Whether they finally gain an internal understanding or whether they should go to jail according to the law, it all depends on their own decision.

Ten minutes later, in the quiet corridor of the hotel's residential floor, three figures, two tall and one short, were walking side by side.

"I didn't expect that Miss Haru and Mr. Masahiko are not biological siblings. When I first heard that they both had the surname Matsuzaki, I thought they must be biological siblings. But I didn't expect that they are half-siblings after their parents remarried."

Masumi Sera put her hands in her pockets and muttered something in her mouth. Her voice spread to the empty corridor, and was quickly absorbed by the high-quality sound insulation layers on the surrounding walls, ceiling, and floor.

"But I read on the Internet that there is a part in human genes that prevents inbreeding, so even if many biological brothers and sisters have always had a good relationship from childhood to adulthood, they will not have a similar liking for the opposite sex... Is that probably the case?"

"That's theoretically true, but not necessarily true."

It was Akai Marie who answered her, and the British girl continued without raising her head.

"Generally speaking, most brothers and sisters will live together since childhood. The main reason that prevents love from occurring is actually this. And if they have lived separately since childhood and are unfamiliar with each other, even brothers and sisters will not be completely unable to develop love. "
