Fairy Tail: I Am the God

Diana was called out and paused for a moment.

At that moment, she seemed a little unaccustomed to Montari's tone, but still said, "It's very, very difficult, and it really depends on a bit of luck."

Chapter 863 You're awesome too!

Continuing with the first line of reasoning, Lucy, by sheer luck, created a zombie.

Simultaneously.

Feeling uneasy, she designed a semi-automatic trigger device in the kitchen to detonate the gas cylinder.

Then... on that day, she planned to kill both Zhao Yi and Zhao Rui, and in the end, burned Lucy to death.

Zhao was lucky and wasn't killed by the zombie.

After saying that, Montari drew two sharp lines on the first horizontal line with his fork; "First logic, impossible."

"why?"

Xu Gang asked.

"The first line of reasoning has been proven impossible here. Unless Lucy had guessed from the beginning that we would assume Zhao Rui committed suicide, she would never have killed two people at the same time."

As he spoke, Montari pointed at Shinichi Kudo, "Because in this situation, Zhao Yi would be ruled out as a suspect. When Zhao Rui died, Zhao Yi was being attacked by zombies."

"So that means Lucy herself placed herself in the range of suspect number 5."

"There are very few of us who are alive. Among the six of us, we suspect each other and are looking for a murderer. Among the five of us, there is also Zhao Yi, who is not a suspect, and we are looking for a murderer."

"The difficulty... is completely different."

Do you think Lucy would be that stupid?

"In fact, I hadn't thought of this before Mr. Zhao asked whether the old housekeeper could become a winner after committing suicide."

“But if Lucy is the real culprit, it is clear that Mr. Zhao Yi would not cover for Lucy or cooperate with her.”

"Nothing more, the first line of logic is right here, there's no need to deduce it further."

"So, once the first argument is rejected, only the second argument remains..."

Lucy is not the murderer!

In other words, the real culprit is you, Xu Gang, Chen Ming, Diana, and…

Montari looked at Shinichi Kudo, "And Mr. Zhao Yi, by the way, Mr. Zhao Yi, on the day you found out that Pike was the murderer, you didn't come down to eat all day and stayed in your room. What were you busy with?"

Everyone has their own unique characteristics, which are related to their family environment from childhood and their later experiences.

Just like the qualities Montari is currently displaying, his speech is clear and his logic is sound; it seems that even the most complex situations become very clear under his organization.

Up to now.

Even Shinichi Kudo himself had to admit it.

The burly man who had gone with him to search the peach forest had indeed successfully deceived his eyes. Fortunately, he hadn't let his guard down and given himself away.

But...the other party's last sentence clearly pointed the finger at him.

Is it intuition?

Or... does he actually have some evidence?

Shinichi Kudo squinted.

Shinichi Kudo had no idea about this. One thing was clear: no matter what the other party knew, if he were to be tricked like this and show weakness or reveal his true colors, then Shinichi Kudo would have truly wasted his life.

"So, you think I spent that day in the room to assemble the detonation device?"

Shinichi Kudo leaned back slightly in his chair, looking at Montari with an expression that said, "You're awesome."

This is a game!

The death here doesn't mean real death. If Kid can accept defeat calmly, then Shinichi Kudo is even more so.

Even if we take a step back and say that he doesn't actually die, Shinichi Kudo wouldn't really care.

Even crueler things... he's experienced them before.

Therefore, Shinichi Kudo maintained a very good mindset throughout.

"No, I just want Mr. Zhao Yi to tell me what you were doing that day. Now I'm certain that Lucy is not the murderer, at least not the murderer who killed Zhao Rui."

"Everyone present except Lucy is a suspect, and I believe everyone wants to get as much information as possible."

Montari's gaze swept over everyone present.

Shinichi Kudo could sense that Diana and Chen Ming were intentionally looking at him.

It's obvious that there's a logic to this, which can be clearly analyzed and even described as a series of coincidences.

First, when Zhao Rui was killed, Shinichi Kudo was being attacked. Then, Shinichi Kudo arranged for Lucy and Xu Gang to go to the second-floor bedroom to investigate.

However, at this stage, all they can say is that they have reclassified Shinichi Kudo, who could have been removed from the list, as a suspect again. Moreover, it is difficult for them to draw any useful conclusions or information from this series of coincidences.

The killing of Zhao Rui was indeed Shinichi Kudo's doing, but Shinichi himself did not expect that when his plan was in effect, someone would send a zombie to attack him.

Several coincidences, some of which were not intentionally orchestrated by Shinichi Kudo.

How could you possibly deduce anything of value from that?

So weird!

"I hope everyone understands one thing: if I were to use some kind of detonator to kill Zhao Rui, I would need to make a huge fuss about it, even skipping meals and hiding in my bedroom to focus entirely on researching it."

"Doing this is like you're afraid others won't know I'm up to something."

Shinichi Kudo shrugged.

"You still haven't answered the question I just asked, Mr. Zhao Yi."

Montari seems to be relentlessly pursuing Shinichi Kudo.

Perhaps, humans are born with this intuition. Shinichi Kudo guessed that Montari might have sensed from this jumble of clues that he was the murderer.

"I can explain this problem later. I can tell you a secret about this manor."

"Now, we're talking about the death of Zhao Rui."

“Montari, please skip this question for now.”

Shinichi Kudo has always been outspoken.

"it is good."

Montari nodded. Since Shinichi Kudo had said so, he had no reason to continue watching Shinichi Kudo, and he indeed had not found any evidence that Shinichi Kudo was the murderer.

"If Lucy isn't the murderer..." Chen Ming planned to continue his analysis.

"wrong!"

Just then, Xu Gang suddenly spoke up, "What if Lucy deliberately hit a counterintuitive number?"

"For example, similar to what you just deduced, Montari, Lucy deliberately attacked two people at the same time to increase the difficulty and intentionally put herself in an unfavorable situation, thus extricating herself from the situation."

Xu Gang, you're awesome too!

Upon hearing Xu Gang's remarks, Shinichi Kudo secretly praised him in his heart.

Chapter 864: This plot is almost over.

For Shinichi Kudo, it was best not to be dragged into the mess by the real culprit, leaving these "good guys" locked in a vicious cycle of flawed logic, unable to escape.

This is the best result!

Shinichi Kudo didn't believe Montari could find any evidence against him; everything was destroyed in the kitchen explosion.

"Have you ever thought about this...?"

At this point, Montari paused, looking at Xu Gang, "If we can't find the real murderer and the real evidence, who will we probably vote for in the end?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Gang was stunned.

Not only Xu Gang, but everyone else was also taken aback.

Yes, if in the end there isn't enough evidence to identify the other person as the real culprit, everyone will probably still vote for Lucy.

Let's try our luck, even if it seems hopeless!

"Therefore, if Lucy is the murderer, she would have to meet three conditions: successfully create a zombie under the existing extremely rudimentary conditions, make a detonator, and then fabricate evidence to confuse the public and frame another person as the real murderer in order to protect herself."

"What level of difficulty is this?"

"Or, do you think this is even possible?"

Xu Gang was speechless. Montari would not deliberately cover up for Lucy in order to protect her, so Montari's words were still neutral in stance.

interesting.

This opponent is no pushover!

Shinichi Kudo had mixed feelings. The mudslinging had been poured on Lucy, but Montari's reasoning had turned it into a protective charm for her.

This person would be an excellent detective if he were one, but alas, you've run into me.
