Even as his friend grasped his shoulders and pushed up his glasses which had slightly slipped due to the shaking, Lord Chosokabe responded calmly.
"Yes, the conclusion is unbelievable... Ah Qing, if it were you, would you find it credible? As a mystery novelist, you would also find it very absurd, right..."
“No, I think it’s credible.”
"Yes, obviously... Eh? Ah Qing, what did you say?"
Hattori Yukichi, who was originally just complaining to his friend under the influence of alcohol, suddenly sobered up and looked at Lord Chosokabe in surprise.
Ah Qing just said... do you think it is credible?
Have you drunk too much?
As if he had noticed his friend's surprise, Lord Chosokabe sighed slightly, pushed away Hattori Yukichi's hand that was still on his shoulder, then turned sideways and began to grope around his waist, answering as he groped.
"Xingyi, do you remember what Sherlock Holmes said when we were in school together watching Sherlock Holmes?"
"Uh... quite a lot. Which one did you say?"
"When you have eliminated the impossibles, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."
"When all reasonable answers have been ruled out by logic, the remaining answer that is labeled 'impossible' because of subjectivity is the correct answer - of course I remember it, but Aqing, you mean..."
"Then why don't you consider that it might really be a non-human with incredible strength who escaped in a nearly flying manner after committing the crime?"
Click——
He put the belt from his waist on the table. The heavy metal belt and the wooden table made a slight collision sound. Seeing that his friend still had a confused and puzzled expression, Lord Chosokabe slowly pushed the belt towards his friend.
"Put on your spirit and try it. Push your clothes and you'll know what's going on with the mechanism on the belt. But I have to warn you in advance. It might hurt a little."
"And, absolutely, absolutely, don't try to slap me out of shock or hold my hand excitedly or anything like that."
"..."
.......
Huajianyuan felt that something was very wrong.
Today is the seventh day since Mr. Su Su was discovered to have been "seduced into evil" - until today, Huajianyuan still hasn't been able to find any clues.
But that was not the case. In fact, except for the first three days when Huajianyuan seriously investigated Mr. Su Su, Huajianyuan was unable to continue the investigation for the rest of the time.
Because a demon appeared in Tokyo.
Ikebukuro Murder Case - From the perspective of Hanayama En, a superhuman, this was clearly a crime committed by a demon. After all, even though he couldn't understand the case as clearly as the investigators from the Metropolitan Police Department, just by judging from the clues he had collected, Hanayama En could be sure that this was definitely not something an ordinary human could do.
But the problem is that after the actual investigation, Hanayama discovered that the Ikebukuro murder case had many differences from the monsters he had encountered before - for example, the most basic point was that the victims showed no signs of having been eaten.
It is the instinct of demons to eat humans. No matter what purpose they have in torturing humans, in the end the demons will inevitably take a bite out of instinct.
Secondly, Hua Jianyuan also sneaked into the scene and tried to use magic to find traces of demons at the scene. However, to Hua Jianyuan's surprise, there was no trace of demons at the scene!
You know, no matter what kind of demon it is, it will leave behind imperceptible "supernatural traces", such as the slime trail of the three-headed slug, the stench and saliva of the skinless goblin, the pus of the ghost bride, the maggot remains of the corpse ghost...
These extraordinary traces are extremely difficult to clean, and can only be discovered by those who are also extraordinary. However, at the crime scene of the Ikebukuro murder case, Hanayama found nothing!
It looks like a human being committing the crime.
Or in other words...
They are other extraordinary people who are also decent!
This situation even made Huajianyuan temporarily give up investigating Su Su, leaving only a small part of his attention to continue paying attention to Su Su's safety, and most of the rest of his energy was invested here.
Huajianyuan must figure out whether this is a crime committed through incredible means, or... there is another hidden story!
016. Evil organizations and official forces
As a veteran mystery novel fan, Hua Jianyuan once paid attention to an FBI statistical report - about 27% of abnormal psychological extreme murderers will return to the crime scene after committing the crime.
This is also a common plot in detective novels. These murderers return to the scene either to confuse the public, or because of fear and tension, they are trying to find out the progress of the investigation, or they are just basically uneasy and want to see if they have missed any clues.
In the Ikebukuro murder case, judging from the modus operandi and the horrific scene, it is hard for Hanayama not to label the murderer as an "extreme psychological person". Therefore, Hanayama has been focusing on the area around the crime scene during this period, trying to see if he can catch the murderer who may return to the scene by chance.
Then......
"I really bumped into you..."
Putting down the hand warmer in his hand, he slowly stuffed the fluffy bag into the backpack behind him. Looking at the man with a faint scarlet mist on his body, Hua Jianyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, but there was an unconscious sense of relief in his eyes.
Then, he reached out and covered his head with the cute animal-ear hood on his hoodie, put on the mask to cover his face as much as possible, and left the secluded corner where he was hiding under the cover of night. Huajianyuan followed him silently from behind.
Huajianyuan has been waiting here for a long time.
From the time when Ling Guangyi got the information about the Yi case until now, Huajian Yuan would squat here every Friday night to guard his father, and then go back in the morning to secretly protect Mr. Su Su as he went to work. After confirming that Su Su arrived at the company safely, he would go home to sleep.
Even so, he could only sleep for a few hours, and then he had to get up at the alarm to investigate other clues. For meals, he could only buy some fast food - Huajianyuan hadn't experienced such a busy life for a long time.
The last time I was so busy, it seemed to be around the time when I last deleted the Qing Dynasty and exorcised the monster -" - This is not nonsense, but Hua Jianyuan really can't remember when it was.
But to be honest, Huajianyuan couldn't be sure that this man was the murderer. She could only say that his behavior seemed quite suspicious to Huajianyuan.
First of all, there are obvious signs of supernatural power on him.
Unlike the symbols on the heads of demons or extraordinary beings that can be seen clearly by each other, the man in front of him only has a residual extraordinary aura - to make an inappropriate analogy, it is like a human being covered with the disgusting slime of a three-headed slug.
He himself might not be able to feel it, but it was extremely obvious in Huajianyuan's eyes.
Secondly, although Ikebukuro is considered a busy neighborhood, the impact of this case was too great and the crime scene was relatively remote, so the crime scene of the Ikebukuro case is still blocked. However, this man went straight towards the crime scene.
It was obvious that he was heading for the crime scene to get it.
Therefore, a suspect who has suspicious movements, stays at the crime scene, and has an extraordinary aura on his body, and is very likely to meet Huajianyuan's inference of "human crime", is obviously worthy of special attention.
But...
At first, the man's behavior was indeed quite suspicious, because after arriving near the crime scene, the man began to wander around and observe the surrounding environment. Hua Jianyuan even began to couldn't help but think about catching him first.
As a result, just when Qi Hua Jian Yuan was about to take action, this man actually walked straight towards the police who were responsible for sealing off the scene!
Then, under Huajianyuan's astonished gaze, the man talked to the blockading police and was allowed to enter the scene. He began to look around, gesturing with his hands and feet from time to time.
"..."
Hua Jianyuan, who was secretly following, couldn't help but be stunned.
What's going on? He was able to talk to the police and was allowed to walk around the scene. Maybe... he's not a suspect, but an official investigator?
Did you guess wrong?
However, if he is an official, then what is the matter with the extraordinary aura left on him?
Is it possible...
Hua Jianyuan, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly remembered the evil organization behind Mr. Su Su that she had been tracking down these days - if there is an evil organization, then does the official have any extraordinary existence?
Huajianyuan actually always thought that there were no official supernatural beings. After all, no one had dealt with the five demons that he had eliminated, and he had to take action himself to eliminate them. If there really were official supernatural beings, why didn't they take action?
but......
What if those supernatural powers have always existed and were just used by politicians to protect themselves?
Huajianyuan did not doubt this possibility at all. After all, the Japanese people were well aware of the character of their own country's politicians, and the probability of such a thing happening was one in ten thousand.
So, could it be that the Ikebukuro case happened in Tokyo, causing politicians to feel threatened, and also because the impact was too great, so they specially sent out official supernatural forces?
"...This is incredible. Have I finally come into contact with the supernatural organization? The evil organization behind Mr. Su Su, the official supernatural power..."
The sudden thought in his mind made Hua Jianyuan temporarily suppress the desire to take action. Instead, he continued to wait patiently until the man had inspected the scene for a long time and finally left the scene. Only then did Hua Jianyuan follow him again.
Driven by curiosity, Bahuajian wanted to investigate this "official personnel".
However, this time the man seemed to be intentionally heading towards a remote road section, and he was moving very fast. Hua Jianyuan almost lost him several times without exposing himself. As a result, when the man completely turned into a small alley, Hua Jianyuan hurried to catch up, but what he saw was a sharp gaze that was quietly staring at her.
"murderer?"
Staring intently at Huajianyuan who had been following him all the way, the man spoke first.
Then Hua Jianyuan was stunned for a moment - it was obvious that she had been discovered and misunderstood.
I should say that he is worthy of being an investigator... I had been following Mr. Su Su every day without being discovered, but I was discovered the second time I followed this guy.
However, this actually proved that the other party was not the murderer, which made Hua Jianyuan inevitably a little disappointed. So he sighed softly and shook his head.
"No, a righteous man, you can call me a vigilante - I'm curious, are you an official superhuman?"
"Vigilance? Without reporting and records, that's illegal."
The man obviously did not intend to answer the question, oddly--quite. On the contrary, after making a few movements that Jian Yuan could not understand but were quite sharp and handsome, the man stretched out his hand and seemed to push something at his waist.
Then, in the dream vision of Huajianyuan, the extraordinary aura on the other person suddenly became particularly strong.
Then, without waiting for Hua Jianyuan to say anything, the man pushed the ground with his toes and rushed towards Hua Jianyuan in an instant with explosive power that an ordinary human could never achieve!
"Oh...Okay, now I know."
Looking at the power that the man suddenly burst out, Hua Jianyuan immediately became convinced that the other party was indeed a supernatural being - or in other words, through some means, the other party was able to possess supernatural powers.
Although...very weak.
Snapped--
She easily caught the man's attack, then repelled him with a palm. Seeing that the man just staggered and fell to the ground because she deliberately reduced her strength, Hua Jianyuan silently estimated that the other party's extraordinary level was probably around Lv1.
That is the level of miscellaneous soldiers.
017. Upgrades and New Abilities
"Supernormal Level" is a set of supernormal power assessment standards developed by Huajianyuan himself, which is used to measure the strength of supernormal people. According to this set of standards, the levels of the five monsters killed by Huajianyuan were approximately between Lv5 and Lv11.
As for Huajianyuan herself...
Lv22, Priest.
As of now, Ling has not seen a superhuman who is more powerful than himself. Even Ling's two former superhuman friends, the blacksmith and the merchant, are far inferior to him.
Anyway, when Hua Jianyuan met his two extraordinary friends two years ago, the blacksmith was Lv15 and the merchant was Lv18. It was also from his two friends that Hua Jianyuan discovered that even among extraordinary people, if the level difference is greater than five levels, the lower-level person will no longer be able to observe the higher-level person.
In other words, if the merchant had not known it in advance, when they first met, he would have been able to see that Hua Jianyuan had the Lv22 priest mark on his head and that he was a transcendent, but the blacksmith would no longer be able to detect it.
However, Hua Jianyuan felt that it was natural for him to be powerful - after all, he had been a priest for twenty years! He had also defeated five demons alone. Hua Jianyuan was quite confident that even if he was not the most powerful transcendent at the moment, he was definitely one of the first batch!
only......
Isn’t the official Lv1 transcendent a little too weak?
Looking at the "official extraordinary person" who was pushed to the ground and slid far away by a slap from him, Hua Jianyuan concentrated his mind slightly while the other party was still trying to stand up, and then accompanied by a flash of white light, a dispelling spell was thrown over.
Compared to the dispelling technique that directly stripped Su Su naked that night, the current dispelling technique has been improved by Huajianyuan for who knows how many times. It can effectively break the disguise of demons while not causing some unexpected situations that happened to Su Su.
Then, as expected, the official extraordinary person who was hit by the dispelling spell did not show any abnormality, but was just startled.
"Well, regardless of whether you are on the official side or not, since you are still a human being and seem to be working hard to solve the case, I will just remind you - I don't know which organization is behind you, but with your strength, you are far from enough to participate in a real battle."
He shook his head slightly, and finally glanced at the official super person who was staring at him vigilantly. Out of kindness, Hua Jianyuan couldn't help but give the other party a few words of advice.
"You should improve your strength. There are a lot of things happening in Tokyo these days. And here's another piece of news. Based on some recent discoveries, I suspect that an evil organization is secretly planning something. Although I don't have much hope for the official, since it happened in Tokyo, shouldn't you at least take care of it?"
"Okay, let's go. Oh, one last piece of advice - don't investigate me. I don't have a good impression of your official forces."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hua Jianyuan turned around gracefully, added a string of light buffs to himself, and then disappeared in a few ups and downs.
In the dim alley, the only "official superhuman" was still staring vigilantly in the direction where Huajianyuan disappeared. After waiting for a long time and confirming that Huajianyuan seemed to have indeed left, the "official superhuman" relaxed a little.
Then, with a silent sigh, the "official superhuman" Hattori Yukichi took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and after confirming that the phone was not damaged due to his fall and walking far away, he called his friend without hesitation.
"Hey? Ah Qing, you really guessed it right..."
......
......
Lord Chosokabe received the belt from a mail delivery.
It was a postal document that did not specify the sender's house, and even the recipient's address was filled in incorrectly. The postman spent a lot of effort to find the house of Lord Chosokabe, whose address was closest to the recipient's.
Then, Lord Chosokabe, who had just worked all night on a manuscript and was half asleep, accepted the mail without thinking.
Then, out of curiosity, Lord Chosokabe put on the belt and pushed the switch, and successfully opened the door to the extraordinary world.
