Fairy Tail: I Am the God

Chapter 856 The Hidden Hand, the Corpse King's Sneak Attack

That night, some people slept in the living room, while others went back to their bedrooms.

The old butler himself admitted that no new murders would be allowed before the voting deadline tomorrow.

Therefore, no one knows whether the people who rest in the living room at night are really scared, or whether the people who go back to the bedroom to sleep are really sleeping soundly.

On the second day, Shinichi Kudo didn't come down to eat breakfast or lunch. Instead, Kaito Kid came over to eat, and the others glanced at him but didn't say anything.

The ability to sit down and eat peacefully with the murderer who just killed his companion is something probably only ruthless killers like reincarnators can do.

evening.

Shinichi Kudo came out of the room.

Kidd sat down next to Shinichi Kudo, asking, "What have you been doing cooped up in your room all day?"

Kid doesn't believe that Shinichi Kudo is researching how to kill. When it comes to killing techniques, who can compare to Shinichi Kudo?

Shinichi Kudo has countless methods stored in his mind.

"rest."

"..." Kidd choked for a moment.

Dinner was eaten in a very peaceful manner, as everyone knew what would happen after dinner. After everyone finished eating, they simply sat in the living room and waited.

Shinichi Kudo sat down on the sofa first, and Kaito Kid came over and sat down next to him, a rare look of disgust on his face.

"Hey, I'm about to die, and you're not even going to comfort me?"

"Good riddance. I'll burn paper money for you next year." Shinichi Kudo said expressionlessly.

"Now, please begin the voting. I will ask them one by one. You only need to point out who you suspect is the murderer in front of me." The old butler finished clearing the table and came over to begin the voting ceremony.

Very simple.

It's also very straightforward.

No one paid any attention!

Shinichi Kudo knew that this was because the culprit had already been exposed. If the culprit was still uncertain by the next vote, the atmosphere of the vote would not be so relaxed.

Without exception, everyone chose Pique, also known as Kidd, and even Kidd himself chose himself.

Then, the old butler announced the final result, as if completing a ritual, and the old butler was the devout believer who presided over the ceremony.

Finally, the old butler grabbed Kidd's shoulder with one hand, and then the two of them vanished instantly, reappearing in front of the dark red wall opposite the living room.

Kidd remained calm, even as the old butler relentlessly pushed him against the wall, his body crumbling and turning into pus.

Kidd didn't utter a single sound from beginning to end.

Even until his death, he still showed a mocking smile at the very end, and it's unclear who he was mocking.

The others were dumbfounded.

He stared at the scene in shock.

When the old steward, who had been serving everyone's needs for food, clothing, and shelter for the past few days, suddenly transformed into an executioner, the two completely different temperaments he displayed were indeed a bit hard to process for a moment.

In the eyes of everyone.

The wall seemed to come alive, actively absorbing everything in its path, until finally even the clothes on Kidd's body were swallowed up.

“Kidd…”

Shinichi Kudo's fingers gently caressed the surface of the sofa. He watched everything without blinking. Death was too commonplace for him.

"Everyone, you can rest now."

The old butler bowed slightly to everyone, and at that moment he seemed to have transformed back into the meticulous and amiable old man. He also kindly reminded them, "A new day has begun."

This warning meant that a new round of murders could begin.

Most people went back to their bedrooms. At least for tonight, a new sense of oppression would descend, for everyone was just an ordinary person.

Even if they were very strong in the past, they don't have much courage to show off now.

Even if this death isn't the end, seeing Kidd being forcibly squeezed into the wall at the end is still quite astonishing.

Shinichi Kudo glanced at the piano and asked the old butler, "Where is Simon's body?"

"It's wrapped up and stored in the storage room. The police will come and pick it up after the storm."

I go!

Why let the police take it?

Shinichi Kudo was speechless. The murderer had already squeezed you right into the wall, so why are you still talking about the police?

What a bullshit!

Back in his bedroom, Shinichi Kudo washed his face and took a shower. For some reason, he felt uneasy after dinner.

He is a sign that he has experienced too many life-and-death situations as a reincarnator, and it seems that someone is watching him.

………………

"Wipe... rub... rub..."

In the middle of the night, a slight scraping sound came from the window. Shinichi Kudo quickly opened his eyes. He was a light sleeper, so he was startled awake immediately.

At that moment, Shinichi Kudo grabbed the kitchen knife he had been keeping under his pillow, got up, and slowly walked to the window.

There is someone!

I'm getting ready to do it to myself...

The windows were closed, just like the doors were locked from the inside. Even Shinichi Kudo wouldn't dare to be too careless at this moment.

Therefore, Shinichi Kudo did not immediately open the window to check the situation outside. The murderer wanted to murder him, not just kill him. Murder carries a deeper meaning than simply killing.

Everyone has their own agenda. The remaining seven people won't all sit in the living room spying on each other and huddling together for warmth. But if someone wants to kill him, he can alert the others and ruin their plan. The other party won't dare to kill openly.

But at that moment, a loud "bang" suddenly came from the living room, as if something had exploded.

next moment.

The glass in front of Shinichi Kudo was also smashed.

The fact that both incidents occurred at the same time means that the commotion in the living room was intended to mask the sound of the other party breaking in through the window!

The timing was impeccable!

A dark figure pounced directly on Shinichi Kudo.

At the same time, a foul and familiar smell pierced Shinichi Kudo's nostrils. Instinctively, Shinichi stabbed the other person in the chest with a kitchen knife, only to find that the knife was stuck in the other person's body and was impervious to blades and spears.

Damn!

How can this be?

Aren't we all just ordinary people?

Shinichi Kudo knew that his opponent was not wearing any protective gear!

The other person gripped Shinichi Kudo's neck tightly with both hands, and their weight, far exceeding that of an ordinary person, pressed Shinichi Kudo to the floor, making it difficult for him to move or make a sound.

This is no ordinary person, absolutely no ordinary person!

The other person suddenly looked up.

At that moment, his pupils were completely black and empty, and his face was ashen with the aura of death, radiating a chilling coldness.

Simon, it's actually Simon!

For an instant.

Shinichi Kudo understood.

Damn it, someone secretly turned Simon's corpse into a Corpse Demon!

Chapter 857 A sinister plot unfolds, and more people die.

one day.

Just one day.

While Kidd confessed to being the murderer yesterday and the old butler forbade the murder to happen, someone had already planned and prepared for this murder!

Even more so, it's possible that the other party was planning the murder much earlier, and was just waiting for a corpse to appear!

Whether it's the explosion in the living room or the zombie, from the initial use of sound to mask the noise and attract other people's attention, everything points to a deadly trap.

A meticulously planned killing trap!

"Cough cough... Oh no!"

With his neck being choked, Shinichi Kudo couldn't breathe. His lungs felt like they were on fire, and his consciousness was slowly fading away.

The corners of his eyes began to droop...

This is a sign of oxygen deprivation. I never thought that even Shinichi Kudo would have such a day.

In a pure contest of strength, he would have a hard time defeating a zombie, especially since Shinichi Kudo's cleaver couldn't even pierce the opponent's body.
