Fairy Tail: I Am the God

Everyone took a deep breath, their faces showing thoughtful expressions, while Shinichi Kudo observed everyone calmly.

"Wait a minute!" Diana suddenly spoke up, then her gaze first fell on Shinichi Kudo.

Shinichi Kudo was startled, but his expression remained calm. Could this detective girl have started to suspect him?

Fortunately, it seems that because Shinichi Kudo was the first person to point out the suspicious circumstances surrounding Zhao Rui's suicide, Diana did not, according to her logic, consider Shinichi Kudo to be the murderer.

Furthermore, when the explosion occurred, Shinichi Kudo was fighting a zombie and nearly died at its hands. Based on this alone, it seems illogical to suggest that Shinichi Kudo was the culprit.

"You, Zhao Yi, only learned about the murderer by questioning the old butler. If the suicide hadn't been discovered by us, you could be considered the victor, according to this logic."

“I think the murderer probably didn’t think of framing Zhao Rui for suicide at first. It was only when Zhao Yi mentioned this possibility and everyone started to investigate in this direction that the murderer thought of pointing the evidence at Zhao Rui to confirm that she committed suicide.”

“Chen Ming and I went to the swimming pool to investigate, and we could confirm that we had been investigating together the whole time and had never separated. Zhao Yi and Montari went to the peach orchard. When they came back, we were already waiting for them in the living room.”

"This means that during that period, the only people who had the opportunity to go to the rooftop to set up evidence were Xu Gang and Lucy, who went to the second-floor bedroom to investigate!"

The words fell.

Everyone's gaze turned to Xu Gang and Lucy. Lucy suddenly stood up and roared almost hoarsely, "It wasn't me! It really wasn't me!"

Shinichi Kudo chuckled to himself.

Now, please begin your performance!

Lucy stood up abruptly.

As the saying goes, the more experiences a reincarnator goes through, the more composed their personality becomes. And the experiences of a reincarnator are things that are hard for ordinary people to imagine.

Most reincarnators, even without deliberately cultivating or learning anything about psychology, are basically able to keep their emotions hidden.

When assigning tasks to participants, the Supreme God rarely foolishly puts low-level and high-level reincarnators in the same batch.

So, here's the question: Lucy is at least a pretty powerful reincarnator.

However, in Shinichi Kudo's opinion, she should be considered one of the more outstanding individuals, even among the veterans.

Otherwise, she couldn't have made all the preparations in such a short time, waiting for Simon's corpse to appear before stealing the ability and psychology to create zombies. All of this demonstrates her excellence.

Yes, Shinichi Kudo knew all along who was creating the zombies.

Because the day before yesterday, when Kidd was found to be the murderer but still leisurely wandered around all day.

Shinichi Kudo encountered Lucy at close range twice, once in the restaurant and once on the second-floor staircase.

Even though she tried to cover it up with perfume and shower gel, Shinichi Kudo could still clearly smell the faint scent of yin energy emanating from her.

Yin energy.

This thing is all too familiar to Shinichi Kudo.

It is no exaggeration to say that yin energy is to Shinichi Kudo what paint is to a painter or fire is to a blacksmith.

What Shinichi Kudo didn't expect was that Lucy would turn the zombie she created against him and order it to kill him!

This was something Shinichi Kudo hadn't anticipated.

Fortunately, Shinichi Kudo had been planning his own things while waiting for an opportunity.

Chapter 862 Montari, who has always kept his talents hidden

It doesn't matter that Lucy killed someone with a zombie first, since Shinichi Kudo can find enough evidence to prove that Lucy is the prime suspect anyway.

but.

That night, Lucy sent zombies to kill her, which really gave Shinichi Kudo the feeling of watching someone dig a pit and wait to gloat, only to be pushed into it himself.

Fog Grass...

This is absolutely infuriating!

Diana pointed out that only Lucy and Xu Gang had the opportunity to place evidence on the roof, which did not surprise Shinichi Kudo at all.

This job was originally arranged by Shinichi Kudo. He went to the woods with Montari, sent Diana and Chen Ming to the swimming pool, and deliberately sent Lucy and Xu Gang to the second floor to check the bedroom.

After learning that Lucy was the one controlling the zombies, Shinichi Kudo naturally didn't mind throwing mud at Lucy.

Lucy seemed to sense the crisis as well, because she knew that someone had deliberately placed the string in that position to frame Zhao Rui for suicide, when in fact it was not her doing.

after all.

The person she really wanted to kill was Shinichi Kudo, not... Zhao Rui.

This means that the person who killed Zhao Rui wanted to make her the biggest stain on his reputation, or even a third wheel.

Under the bright light bulb, the suspicion on the others was undoubtedly greatly reduced.

As for whether Lucy noticed him or considered him the first suspect.

Shinichi Kudo wasn't sure about that.

Therefore, he did not intend to kill Lucy completely from the beginning.

There are no fools here. Making Lucy the target of everyone's anger now would be of great help, at least to Shinichi Kudo, the real culprit.

Lucy knew that if she didn't step forward and be honest now, she might not have time left.

It's morning now, and the vote will be held around 10 p.m. tonight. This matter absolutely cannot be delayed.

“Simon, I created the zombie, and I also made the zombie attack Zhao Yi, but I didn’t kill Zhao Rui. I didn’t kill Zhao Rui.”

When Lucy said these words, she didn't look at Shinichi Kudo, not because she felt guilty, but because everyone's primary goal right now was to find the real culprit.

Those of you here are probably plotting how to kill people every day, so there's really no need for empty formalities like feigning remorse.

Upon hearing this, Shinichi Kudo frowned noticeably, crossed his hands, and tightened his grip slightly.

It wasn't that Lucy said anything extraordinary. In fact, when Lucy spoke, she didn't label Shinichi Kudo as the prime suspect. Shinichi Kudo simply needed to express his anger in a timely manner.

It's possible that Shinichi Kudo, after confirming that Zhao Rui committed suicide, proactively reopened the case and discovered suspicious points. From Lucy's perspective, it seems the murderer had no reason to do this.

When everyone assumes Zhao Rui committed suicide and prepares to wash up, go to bed, and wait for the evening vote, the murderer could easily sit idly by and watch everyone's investigation time be wasted.

This is the most advantageous option for the murderer.

Shinichi Kudo took the initiative to find the suspicious points that Zhao Rui did not commit suicide. In Lucy's opinion, no one present, except the murderer, could see things more clearly than her.

The deliberately placed evidence explained everything to Lucy.

"You admit that the zombie that attacked Zhao Yi was created by you?" Diana asked.

“Yes, I admit it, but it didn’t work,” Lucy admitted again.

"Zhao Rui, you don't admit that you killed her?" Diana asked.

“I didn’t kill her, and I won’t admit it,” Lucy replied firmly. “I would never use such a low-level method as to place the strings there and frame Zhao Rui for suicide.”

“There are two logics to everything. The reason you are now openly admitting it is because we have already overturned the conclusion that Zhao Rui committed suicide, which was originally very advantageous to you.”

"And you and Xu Gang became the suspects. So, if you killed Zhao Rui, you had a sufficient motive to plant that evidence to make us more certain that Zhao Rui committed suicide..."

Before Chen Ming could finish speaking, Lucy interrupted him with a sharp shout: "Do you take me for a god? Here, everyone is just an ordinary person. Just based on the existing conditions here, the fact that I was able to successfully turn Simon's corpse into a zombie already has a huge element of luck involved."

"How could I possibly have the energy to kill Zhao Rui? You should know how Zhao Rui died. She was burned to death in the kitchen by a gas cylinder explosion. That means there was a device there that was similar to a semi-automatic trigger ignition device."

"I simply don't have the time or energy to do anything extra."

"This explanation is not convincing enough for me."

Xu Gang hesitated because he had voted for the wrong person, someone who wasn't the murderer.

For them, it was tantamount to failure.

The usually simple-minded Montari suddenly reached out, signaling everyone to stop arguing, and took out a piece of paper.

During the previous debates, he didn't say anything except answering Shinichi Kudo's question, and he has always given people the impression of being rather dull and detached.

When Shinichi Kudo saw him take out paper and pen, his pupils involuntarily contracted.

Shinichi Kudo noticed that Montari's demeanor seemed to have changed drastically...

Could it be that!

Was this guy hiding his true abilities all along?

"Zhao Rui is dead."

Monta smiled, showing none of his brutish nature, but rather a calm and wise demeanor. "Now, at least one thing is certain: Zhao Rui definitely did not commit suicide!"

Montari picked up a fork and drew a line on the tablecloth.

"Because we have determined that the string that points from the roof to Zhao Rui's window could not have been caused by Zhao Rui's negligence."

"If she wanted to win through suicide, there was no need to leave such clear evidence."

"In other words, Zhao Rui did not commit suicide. The evidence was deliberately altered by someone with ulterior motives. No one but the murderer would place incorrect evidence at this time. Everyone can understand this, right?"

Therefore, Zhao Rui definitely did not commit suicide! This point can be confirmed first.

Based on this argument, we can further divide it into two logical points.

First, Lucy is the murderer.

Second, Lucy is not the murderer.

"First, Lucy admitted that she turned the body of the first victim, Simon, into a zombie. Diana, you are a necromancer. Under these conditions, what was the difficulty of turning a zombie into a zombie? Please explain."
