Fairy Tail: I Am the God

Some of these are not even in Shinichi Kudo's own collection of books, and you should know that his father is a mystery novelist.

Shinichi Kudo picked up a copy of "The Silver Serial Murders." The printing date of the book was unknown, and even the publisher was not indicated. It looked like a pirated, privately printed work, with extremely high-quality paper and cover.

After casually flipping through the book, Shinichi Kudo discovered that about three-quarters of the book was about the case.

But at the end, there is a statement that even puts the case to rest.

In the conclusion, the author analyzes that the murderer eventually chose to live under an assumed name and become the owner of a small supermarket.

While enjoying the thrill of escaping the law, he also tried to spend the rest of his life in fear, even talking in his sleep became a taboo for him.

Furthermore, the book also deduces the time when the murderer was caught, and the author states with certainty that the murderer committed a mistake that defined an era.

That is, with the development of biotechnology, DNA technology, which is even more terrifying than simply identifying fingerprints, namely the development of PCR, has completely turned the author's hiding into a joke with no secrets left.

The murderer carelessly left behind a large number of his own sperm and blood from the fight. The author speculates that this is only possible once DNA technology becomes more widespread and the domestic DNA database reaches a certain scale.

The murderer will be caught sooner or later!

Even if a murderer can control himself, he cannot control those who are related to him by blood.

Chapter 849 The First Eliminated

Shinichi Kudo took a deep breath. He didn't know which world this story came from; at the very least, he had never heard of it.

This gave him more confidence in his guess about the mission. He likes solving cases, doesn't he?

Then I'll show you what real technology is!

Shinichi Kudo's lips curled up subtly, as if he were mocking something.

Next, Shinichi Kudo chose another book and sat back down on the sofa.

night.

It was very peaceful.

But it's also oppressive!

In this mountain villa, everyone harbors their own secrets, or to put it bluntly, they all have murderous intentions.

Under such circumstances, undercurrents were swirling.

"Can you play the piano? Would you like to play a piece?" the woman with the zongzi-shaped hair asked, looking at Shinichi Kudo.

"meeting!"

Shinichi Kudo smiled, got up, and sat down at the piano.

but.

Just as Shinichi Kudo pressed the key, he noticed something amiss. He then pressed several more keys in succession, but still no sound came out.

Shinichi Kudo frowned.

He immediately got up and opened the piano lid.

Inside, a corpse, riddled with holes from piano wire, lay, its eyes filled with terror.

"This is……"

Shinichi Kudo immediately turned to look at the woman with the brown hair, and found that she was also standing behind him with a shocked expression.

Ok?

Didn't she do it?

The dead body was discovered just like that. Shinichi Kudo's first reaction was that the woman with the zongzi-like hair was the murderer.

The main suspicion is that she was the prime suspect. It was very strange that she was able to enter the room so quickly, read the note, and then come out and return to the living room to continue reading.

Most importantly, she even suggested playing a piece of music herself? And that's how the body was discovered!

And now.

He had a piano string hidden in his pocket.

If this woman waits for the others to come down and then calls them to search her body, and the piano wire is discovered by everyone, then Shinichi Kudo would undoubtedly be the prime suspect.

What Shinichi Kudo found most puzzling was that if this woman with the zongzi-like hair was responsible for all of this, and her purpose in doing so was to kill him and then pin the blame on him, it seemed a bit too deliberate.

How did she know she had piano wire on her body?

Guess?

Or was it premeditated...?

Even if Shinichi Kudo is the prime suspect, once he becomes the focus of attention, it's really hard to say who everyone will ultimately believe to be the murderer.

If she is the murderer, she certainly shouldn't have placed herself in such an obvious position.

Just then, the old butler emerged from the shadows. He seemed unsurprised by the corpse, and went straight to the stairwell, calling out to those above:

"Someone's dead..."

The old butler's voice was low and hoarse, but for some reason, it was strong and resonant.

The moment the old butler finished speaking, a voice echoed in Shinichi Kudo's mind.

It is a false god.

"Mission issued: Find the murderer. You can vote in each round to vote for the person you think is the murderer. The mission ends when a murderer escapes. The winner can receive one condition: a wish that can be made to me."

Shinichi Kudo understood.

Is there only one winner? And it even sets the stage for the ensuing infighting.

This is a false god who enjoys manipulating people's hearts!

Do you treat us like tools for your amusement? I hope you don't play with fire and get burned.

Shinichi Kudo thought to himself with a sarcastic remark.

He should accept that condition.

Meanwhile, everyone else around them received the message that they had been given the mission, and everyone's eyes were red and they were panting heavily.

The main god's condition is that the reward is so generous that it's almost unbearable.

Shinichi Kudo glanced at the old butler without realizing it.

The old butler here is actually more like a host; perhaps he was standing next to the murderer watching as the murderer committed the crime.

He wouldn't offer help; he'd simply observe. He wouldn't try to stop them; he'd just watch quietly.

Based on the situation over the previous four days, he was only in charge of providing food for everyone.

Of course, now someone has died.

He was also in charge of another task... finding the murderer.

No matter how awesome or powerful you were in the past, everyone is on equal footing now.

Soon, six people came downstairs and gathered around the piano to examine the body.

“The murderer should be among the eight of you. You can come here to vote and vote for the person you think is the murderer. The person with the most votes will be identified as the ‘murderer’.”

"If the person who 'recommends the murderer' is indeed the real murderer, then that person is dead."

"On the contrary, if the person who 'nominates the murderer' is not the real murderer, then everyone else except the murderer will be punished."

"What kind of punishment will it be?" The question was asked by the lawyer Shinichi Kudo had encountered when he first entered this story world.

"secret!"

"The only thing I can tell you is that this punishment could very well lead to death," the old butler replied.

"This is really an exciting game," Shinichi Kudo thought to himself.

Unfortunately, someone else killed someone before him, which was tantamount to stealing his opportunity. Rather than being a hunter, Shinichi Kudo preferred to be a hidden killer.

The reason is simple: the benefit of finding the murderer is simply avoiding punishment, while the benefit of being the murderer and not being found is rewarded. It is obvious which is better.

Eight people checked the piano and the body in turn. No one took the body out of the piano. They just looked at it briefly and then sat down on the sofa.

“Now that the rules of the game have been established, I don’t think we need to hide our identities anymore. At least for now, one of the eight of us is the murderer.”

"The other seven people will all be punished if we don't find out who that person is. I think it will help us figure things out by revealing their true identities and their level of power in the real world."

The one who spoke was an Asian man; he was quite large and looked very robust.

The deceased was a Western man with a lot of hair, who looked somewhat like a celebrity. He was not particularly muscular, but rather thin.

It can be killed and placed inside a piano in a folding manner, with the piano strings not piercing through the body, but rather wrapping around it.

He was only wearing clothes, so if nothing unexpected happened, he should have suffocated to death. There were no external wounds, so Shinichi Kudo, who was playing the piano earlier, did not smell the blood beforehand.

P.S.: On the last day of this month, don't hold back your monthly tickets and flowers, give them all away!

Chapter 850 The Time of Death of the Deceased, One Person Plays Two Roles

"How do you know the murderer will tell the truth? What if he's lying?"

The woman with the zongzi-shaped hair spoke first. She glanced at the man and said directly, "Since we can't be sure the real culprit will tell the truth, we might as well choose the most primitive investigative method."
