In addition, there was a bandaged man holding an axe standing in the window.
I wonder if this can be considered as a dream coming true?
The bright silver axe blade drew a beautiful arc in the night.
Suzuki Sonoko instinctively rolled over and avoided the fatal blow.
Yuanzi subconsciously wanted to run towards the door, but was blocked by the axe thrown by the other party.
The bandaged man didn't seem to want to kill her here. He ran over to pick up the axe, locked the door, and then attacked Yuanzi with the axe.
This also gives Yuanzi some room to maneuver.
Yuanzi frantically threw everything she could get her hands on, books, teapots, slippers, pillows - all at the other party's feet to stop him.
At this time, there was a sound of someone banging on the door outside. It was probably someone nearby who heard her scream and ran over.
But because the door was locked, he couldn't rush in for the time being.
Because there were limited things that could be thrown in the room, Yuanzi was soon forced into a corner. She stepped on the slippery windowsill and looked at the muddy ground below that reflected the rain.
The second floor of this villa is quite high. If you fall down, you will at least break your legs. If you are unlucky, you may even die.
Suzuki Sonoko was in a dilemma.
What should I do?
She looked past the bandaged man and towards the door.
Damn, why is the door of this villa designed to be so sturdy?
However, Takahashi Ryoichi, who was disguised as a bandage monster, did not give her much time to think. His original plan was to take Sonoko to the forest and repeat the death of Chikako Ikeda. It would be best if she could jump down by herself.
Ryoichi Takahashi waved the axe in his hand in a threatening manner with a ferocious expression.
Suzuki Sonoko's hand holding the window sill loosened and she fell directly from the second-floor window.
In mid-air, she deliberately twisted her body and faced the ground with her back.
Yuanzi thought that even if he fell to his death, his face must not be disfigured, and his chest was even worse, as there was not much flesh on it to begin with.
Accompanied by a strong sense of weightlessness, Suzuki Sonoko felt like she fell into a warm embrace.
Ok?
When Yuanzi looked up, she found Chen Nuo's angular face appeared in front of her.
Chen Nuo smiled and said, "You should lose weight."
Then the door of Sonoko's room was smashed open by Kadoya with a hammer. With Chen Nuo guarding below, Takahashi Ryoichi had nowhere to run.
He was soon pinned to the ground by everyone.
Since they caught him in the act, there was no need for any reasoning and Takahashi Ryoichi told the whole story.
Chen Nuo didn't expect that this case would end in this way.
What surprised Chen was that the reason why Takahashi Ryoichi attacked Suzuki Sonoko was because Sonoko accidentally saw him changing clothes when he just arrived at the villa.
This is a little different from the original work. In the original work, Xiaolan accidentally saw the murderer's true size. As for why Xiaolan didn't tell him before, it was because Sonoko didn't want to leave a bad impression in front of her original target of pick-up, Ota Masaru.
But no matter what, fortunately things did not develop in a bad direction.
Takahashi Ryoichi was tied up and people were assigned to guard him in shifts, waiting to hand him over to the police tomorrow.
This noisy and beautiful night for Chen Nuo finally came to an end.
The next day, it was still raining outside, but much less than before.
Although Suzuki Ayako has contacted the Metropolitan Police Department, the heavy rain has disrupted traffic leading here, so the police may not arrive until the afternoon.
We had lunch at the villa.
Everyone sat around the table, with complicated expressions on their faces.
It seems that it will take some time to recover from the pain of losing a good friend.
Lunch was prepared by Suzuki Ayako and Xiaolan together, and Xiaolan also learned how to make "apple pie" from Suzuki Ayako.
But I didn't expect it to overturn.
The apple pie Xiaolan made was bitter and astringent, and it was completely inedible.
This made Xiaolan, who has always been good at cooking and wrote on her dream list in elementary school: "When I grow up, I want to cook delicious meals for the person I love for the rest of my life", unable to accept it.
After lunch, she consulted Suzuki Ayako about the technique of making apple pie and practiced with the remaining ingredients.
Chen Nuo and Yuanzi, who had nothing to do, also came to help.
In the kitchen, Chen Nuo repeatedly beat the dough in a stainless steel cooking bowl in an effort to make the dough reach Xiaolan's desired standard.
Xiaolan stood in front of the stove, carefully comparing the recipe and tips given to her by Suzuki Ayako, and repeatedly adjusted the taste of the sauce.
Suzuki Sonoko was in charge of peeling the apples. In front of her was a stainless steel bowl half filled with diced apples.
As the garden was being cut, some new tricks were also added.
She used the knife in her hand to carve the apple into a human shape like a carver, but because her skills were too poor,
It has failed several times in a row.
"Success." After many attempts, Sonoko finally completed her work.
She held the ugly apple sculpture, which looked like a mountain god, in her palm with a look of satisfaction on her face.
Chen Nuo asked curiously, "What is this? Is it a statue in the temple?"
Yuanzi's face turned slightly red and she rolled her eyes at him: "It's you."
"Me?" Chen Nuo was stunned for a moment. "Are you sure you're not making fun of me? This looks like a statue of a deity in a temple, right? Or one that's extremely vicious and evil."
Yuanzi gritted his teeth and said, "Stop talking nonsense, just get the point across."
"What do you mean?"
Yuanzi handed the apple statue to Chen Nuo and said seriously: "Thank you for saving me from the bandage monster."
Chen Nuo looked disgusted: "You are too perfunctory, even if it is——
Chen Nuo mercilessly complained about Yuanzi's carving standards.
Yuanzi watched his hard work being cruelly trampled upon by Chen Nuo, and his blood pressure gradually rose. Blue veins in the shape of a # also appeared on his fair forehead under the light yellow hairband.
She originally wanted to feed the apple to Chen Nuo in a gentle way, but Chen Nuo got so angry that she put the apple into his mouth roughly.
Chen Nuo: "What are you doing? You poked my throat."
Yuanzi: "Asshole, why did you bite my hand?
Xiaolan quickly put down the cooking pot and ran over to stop the fight.
The kitchen suddenly became lively.
Suzuki Ayako stood in the corridor looking at her sister and Chen Nuo, her eyes suddenly becoming somewhat complicated.
When Xiaolan's second batch of apple pie came out of the oven, Chen Nuo, who had just returned to his room and was lying on the bed to read a book to entertain himself, received a text message.
It was sent by Suzuki Sonoko.
The content was very brief, asking Chen Nuo to meet her in the warehouse behind the villa in ten minutes, saying that there was something important to discuss in advance.
Chen Nuo searched his mind for the reasons why Suzuki Sonoko asked him out, and after ruling out the unlikely option that she wanted to kill him for complaining about the Apple sculpture, a very likely option emerged in front of Chen Nuo.
Could it be that bet?
Chen Nuo thought of the bet he made with Yuanzi when he was cleaning the swimming pool.
Does Yuanzi really want to fulfill the bet?
Chen Nuo felt it was a little unbelievable. He proposed this condition because he was a little angry and said it deliberately. He never expected that Yuanzi would fulfill the bet.
Chen Nuo thought about it. Although the bet was very tempting, Chen Nuo felt that Xiaolan's side was more important. After all, it was related to the organization's mission.
It would be better to talk to her face to face, and you can also have a formal talk with Sonoko about your attitude towards Xiaolan and ask her to stop going against you all the time.
Chen Nuo put on his coat and walked down the stairs.
As soon as he went down the stairs, he saw Xiaolan coming out of the kitchen.
Xiaolan was wearing a white apron and holding a large tray with baked apple pies on it.
The sweet fruity aroma filled the air, it seemed that Xiaolan had done a great job this time.
"Chen Nuojun, you will definitely not fail this time. Please have a taste." Xiaolan looked at him expectantly.
Chen Nuo: "Listen - the signal here is not good. I'm going to go out and make a phone call. Come back to eat later."
Chen Nuo reluctantly ignored Xiaolan's self-esteem as she looked forward to her master's favor and turned to walk towards the entrance.
Because he didn't want to miss the opportunity to talk to Sonoko face to face, especially when he had the "bet" as a bargaining chip in his hand, which might be able to directly eliminate what seemed to be the biggest obstacle in his pursuit of Xiaolan.
Xiaolan watched Chen Nuo leave, feeling a little disappointed.
At this time, footsteps were heard on the stairs again.
When Xiaolan looked up, she found that Suzuki Sonoko had also come out of the room. She was wearing a black raincoat, and the cloak-like raincoat covered her entire body.
Xiaolan raised the tray in her hand with an expectant expression on her face: "Sonoko, it's great that you're here. Come and try how I cooked this time."
Yuanzi looked at Xiaolan with a guilty look, and hesitantly said, "I, I'll come back to eat later. Brother Ota asked me to go for a walk. Sorry, Lan."
After saying this, Yuanzi hurriedly walked towards the entrance.
She almost fell down when she was putting on her shoes in the entrance hall. Her black raincoat was pulled, revealing her snow-white and round legs.
Xiaolan frowned, feeling that Sonoko seemed to be wearing no clothes under her raincoat.
Xiaolan was shocked.
Could it be that these two people are hiding something from her?
I have to say that the intensive study of mystery novels during this period was indeed useful. The more Xiaolan thought about it, the more she felt that the reactions of the two people were too abnormal.
So Xiaolan put the apple pie on the dining table.
Then she took off her apron, picked up an umbrella from the entrance, and followed him out quietly.
Chapter 56: Sonoko's gymnastics uniform is a Shura field
After Chen Nuo came out of the villa, he walked through the path where Suzuki Sonoko jumped from the second floor yesterday, and soon saw the warehouse that Sonoko mentioned.
The warehouse is not big, probably about the same size as the school's storage room. Chen Nuo came here once yesterday when he helped get something.
But he just stood at the door and didn't go in.
The lock of the warehouse's iron door has been opened, and the rain is washing the large, rusty padlock, giving off a strong sense of age.
Chen Nuo pushed the door open and walked in, folding his umbrella, shaking it twice and placing it by the door.
The garden hasn't arrived yet.
Because it was a cloudy day, the light in the storage room was not very good, and a faint smell of mold and dust filled the air.
Chen Nuo looked around and found that this place was much larger than he had imagined.
On both sides of the wall are wooden shelves, on which are placed beans in iron boxes, maintenance tool boxes, candles and other items. There are also several barrels of diesel for generators piled on the ground.
The variety of things here is so complete that Chen Nuo feels that even if the suspension bridge is not repaired for a month, it will at least be no problem for them to live a normal life here.
There was a car parked at the innermost part of the warehouse.
It's an old car, the tires have long been worn out and the body is a bit rusty. I guess it's been put here as a collection.
Chen Nuo walked up to the car and looked at it curiously for a long time, but Suzuki Sonoko had not arrived yet.
The phone did ring.
Did she regret it? Chen Nuo took out his phone in confusion, only to find that it was Gin calling.
"I have a mission. Where are you now?" Gin's voice was as cold as ever, without a trace of emotion. Chen Nuo smiled bitterly: "Brother, I'm trapped in the mountains. I guess I won't be able to return to Tokyo until tonight."
Chen Nuo explained his current situation.
Since his current main task is to investigate Kudo Shinichi, it is reasonable for him to go on vacation in order to build good relationships with Mao Li Ran and other classmates.
"Oh, I see."
