Ming Ke: When the villain accidentally mixes into the protagonist group

Suddenly Mingyue looked serious and said softly: "Some agency has been activated, on the fourth floor."

There were messy footsteps upstairs. Shuichi Akai opened his dark green eyes and stared straight at the circular corridor on the fourth floor. His pupils suddenly dilated.

A man in black spiritual clothing with a mask on his face ran from Room 11 to Room 7. In this short distance, he dodged three arrows.

Mingyue and others ran out of the study and saw the masked man getting into room No. 6, followed by Ryota Fukunishi holding a crossbow.

A crossbow arrow was nailed to the door of Room 6.

"Let's go up and take a look?" Akai Shuichi looked at the two girls beside him. From his own perspective, he wanted to understand what was happening, but reason told him that it was not a wise move to investigate now.

Mingyue looked at Room 11. After listening to the noise, she said seriously: "Wait a moment. After all, we are not familiar with them. Going there now may cause unnecessary trouble."

Fukunishi Ryota chased him to the door of Room 6 and found that the door was locked. He kicked the door several times but failed to open it. He looked down and found Shuichi Akai, "Come up quickly. I forced him into Room ." Come on, let’s kick the door open together.”

"Okay." Akai Shuichi looked at Mingyue and Miyano Shiho.

Several people came to the door of Room 6, and Akai Shuichi and Fukunishi Ryota worked together to kick the door open.

The door was opened, but there was no one in the room. The pendulum of the glass clock was still swinging regularly.

"Where are the people?!" Fukunishi Ryota was the first to rush in and turned the room upside down, but found nothing. He turned to look at Akai Shuichi and the others, "Is there a secret passage in your room?"

Akai Shuichi looked around, "Did you notice?"

"You should also have seen someone running in." Fukunishi Ryota stared at Akai Shuichi with his small eyes, his eyes fierce, "The one wearing the spiritual clothes is the woman from Guangming Temple, she is the one who found you, now She disappeared into the room where you once lived, how should you explain it?"

At this time, Kawahara Sakijun ran over, his trembling hands were covered with blood, and his eyes were full of horror, "Kobayakawa is dead!"

Fukunishi Ryota pointed the crossbow at Akai Shuichi, "You are an accomplice!"

"Well, if we were accomplices, we should have run away long ago instead of standing here." Akai Shuichi shrugged, but protected the girls behind him.

Kawahara Sakijun said tremblingly, "Kobayakawa, he pointed at the glass clock before he died."

The blood-stained hand pointed tremblingly at the glass clock behind Fukunishi Ryota, with sharp eyes, he uttered two words, "Secret passage!"

Fukunishi Ryota turned around and stared at the glass clock, gritted his back teeth, and said coldly: "You guys go out and go back to the study, otherwise don't blame me for being merciless."

Mingyue and the others slowly exited Room 6. When they passed by Room 11, Kobayakawa Shigeru's body was lying on the open space in front of the toilet. One hand pointed at the glass clock. The bright red blood was still spreading and gathering into a small pool.

A dagger was thrust straight into his chest, almost killing him with one blow.

Kobayakawa Shigeru's eyes were wide open, his glasses were tilted on the bridge of his nose, and a horrified expression was fixed on his face.

There was a clanging sound in Room 6.

Mingyue glanced at Room 12. Nonomiya Taichi was still shivering under the quilt. After hearing the noise, he shivered even more.

Miyano Shiho took a deep breath and looked at the clock on the wall. The hour hand was now between the numbers 6 and 7, and the minute hand was pointing at 6. He glanced at room 6, "They should be able to find the secret passage."

"Tear down the glazed clock, maybe you can see it." Mingyue walked slowly downstairs.

Miyano Shiho looked at Mingyue, "Aren't you curious about what's behind that?"

Mingyue tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Well... I am indeed a little curious, but I don't want to come into contact with a murderer who can kill him without hesitation, especially when you are still with me."

"You say that, as if I'm really holding you back." Miyano Shiho looked at Room 6 through the gap in the spiral staircase with his half-moon eyes.

Fukunishi Ryota threw the crossbow on the bed, and after groping for a long time in front of the glass clock to no avail, he raised a chair and smashed it against the glass clock. The crystal clear glass shattered to the ground, and sharp fragments flew everywhere.

Behind the glass clock, a mechanism door suddenly appeared in front of you.

"Damn it! It's the door again!" Ryota Fukoshi kicked the door hard. However, this door didn't seem to be as strong as the one on the third floor. After being kicked a few times, a gap appeared.

Kawahara Sakijun got an iron rod from nowhere, and the two of them pried open the door of the machine, and a dark passage appeared in front of them.

"It's too dark and you can't see anything. If you go in rashly like this, you might be ambushed." Kawahara Sakijun looked inside.

After thinking for a moment, Fukunishi Ryota said: "Call those people over and let them go in to explore the way."

Kawahara Sakijun pursed his lips, wanting to say something, but looked at the blood on his hands, but did not say anything.

Fukunishi Ryota sneered, "You don't think you have a hard time with your conscience, do you? Those people might be in the same group as that woman from Guangmingji Temple."

"Hey, is Mikoto Kokoji's ex-boyfriend yours?" Kawahara Sakijun suddenly asked this question.

Fukunishi Ryota was stunned, "Are you doubting me?" After speaking, his eyes became sharp, with bloodthirsty ferocity in his eyes, and he continued, "I will make it clear that the woman from Guangmingji cheated on her and found another man. If I If I know who that man is, I must kill him."

Kawahara Sakijun's Adam's apple slid up and down involuntarily, and said with a smile: "Your expression is a bit scary."

"I'm not joking with you. I already knew that the woman from Guangming Temple was coming to this place. The purpose of my coming here was to kill that man." Fukunishi Ryota raised the corner of his mouth, "Heyuan, in fact, I suspected that man from the beginning. It's you."

Kawahara Sakijun smiled awkwardly, "Hehe, hehe, Ryota, don't joke, this joke is not funny...hehe... Let's call them over first, and see if we can find lighting tools such as flashlights. "

Akai Shuichi, who was on the third floor, saw the two people coming down the spiral staircase.

Kawahara Sakijun stood at the door of the study, knocked on the door, and said to Akai Shuichi: "We have opened the secret passage and invite you to go in together."

"You just drove us away, and now you invite us over?" Akai Shuichi said with a cold face, speculating on the other party's intentions, and narrowed his dark green eyes.

Kawahara Sakijun could only smile and said: "We were a bit harsh just now, after all, our companion was killed."

Miyano Shiho glanced at the clock on the wall. At this time, the hour hand was about to point to the number 9 and the minute hand was pointing to the number 10.

Ming Yue and others came to Room 6. Facing the dark passage, Ming Yue raised the corner of her mouth, looked at Kawahara Sakijun, and said with a smile: "Director Kawahara, do you want us to explore the path ahead?"

Fukunishi Ryota pointed the crossbow directly at Mingyue and said coldly: "Go in."

"It's so dark, no matter what, you should give us lighting tools such as flashlights." Mingyue looked at the flashlight in Ryota Fukunishi's hand.

"I will let you see the road ahead clearly, so come in."

Mingyue and Akai Shuichi looked at each other and said, "I'll be the first one."

Akai Shuichi glanced at the crossbow in Fukunishi Ryota's hand and nodded.

Miyano Shiho held Ming Yue's hand. Ming Yue felt the coldness of Miyano Shiho's little hand, so she held her hand tightly and whispered: "Don't let go." Miyano Shiho nodded seriously.

The three of them walked into the dark passage, which extended to both sides. Ming Yue randomly chose one side and walked inside, but was stopped by Fukoshi Ryota.

"Go this way." Fukunishi Ryota pointed the flashlight to the other side.

Mingyue just glanced at the man with small eyes and pulled Miyano Shiho towards another passage.

Akai Shuichi followed Miyano Shiho, paying attention to the movements of the two people behind him, and mentally evaluating what method he could use to control these two people at the same time.

The weak light of the flashlight was like a firefly in the dark night. The entire passage was extremely dim, but the bright moon moved slowly and slowly, which also made Miyano Shiho next to him feel a lot more relaxed.

The passage seemed to be straight, but in fact it had a slight arc, just like another circular corridor built around the twelve rooms in the middle. After walking for a short time, I saw the stairs, and the upper and lower floors were connected.

When she reached the stairs, Mingyue asked: "Go up or down?"

"Go straight first." Fukunishi Ryota held a crossbow in one hand and a flashlight in the other.

The shadow of the bright moon is projected on the wall, like a giant beast dormant in the dark night.

Everyone walked around in the passage and returned to the starting point, Room 6. Dim light shone in from the damaged part of the machine door, like dawn, more like dusk, the dimness blurred the boundaries.

Miyano Shiho leaned into Mingyue's ear and whispered: "Twelve machine doors and three stairs. The rooms corresponding to the stairs should be No. 3, No. 7, and No. 11."

Mingyue nodded.

Da da da……

Da da da……

The sound of objects hitting metal seemed to come from upstairs.

Fukunishi Ryota pointed at the bright moon with his crossbow, "Go up and have a look."

Mingyue followed the stairs to the fifth floor. The fifth floor was similar to the fourth floor, but there were only three machine doors, and they were all near the stairs.

Da da da……

The sound seemed to be coming from above, so he continued walking up.

When everyone arrived on the sixth floor, they found Mitsue Terai who was tied up. Her mouth was sealed with tape. She was tapping the railing with her movable fingers, making a "ta-ta-da" sound.

The light of the flashlight shone on Terai Mitsue's face, and she suddenly felt the light, causing her eyes to narrow slightly and a whining sound coming from her mouth.

Mingyue stood there and looked at Mitsue Terai not far away, always feeling that something was not quite right.

"Go and take the thing off her mouth." Fukunishi Ryota pointed at Mingyue with his crossbow.

Miyano Shiho held Ming Yue's hand tightly and wanted to follow him together, but was startled by the sudden hand on his shoulder. He raised his head and met Akai Shuichi's dark green eyes.

Ming Yue and Akai Hide looked at each other, let go of Miyano Shiho's hand, walked in front of Terai Mitsue, and tore off the tape on his mouth.

There were tears in Terai Mitsue's eyes, "Hurry and help me untie the rope, Miss Guangmingji is going to kill me!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this sentence.

Mingyue looked at Mitsue Terai calmly at close range. The sleeve of her right arm was intact, as well as the left one. The rope tied her very firmly. It couldn't be done by one person, but it was Mikoto Mikoto who tied her up. From here?

"I'm not lying to you. This morning I saw her coming out from behind the glass clock and attacking Miss Shimizu with the clock. I wanted to stop her, but I had no choice but to shout for help in the room," Mitsue Terai sobbed at this point. Get up, "You don't know how much I wished someone would show up at that time, how much I wished I wasn't tied up with a rope, I could only watch and couldn't do anything!"

Mingyue tilted her head, pretending to be confused, and said softly: "Sister Terai, we didn't hear your cry for help." After speaking, she looked at Akai Shuichi.

Shuichi Akai nodded slightly at Mingyue, brought Miyano Shiho into his domain, and was ready to attack at any time.

Fukunishi Ryota walked up to Terai Mitsue, "Did you really see that the woman from Guangming Temple did it?"

"Yes, that's her! Can you let me go? I suspect she might still be around here." Mitsue Terai looked around. Except for the place illuminated by the flashlight, everything else was dark, as if there was a god of death standing there. in.

Kawahara Sakijun said to Fukunishi Ryota: "The sound insulation effect of the room is very good, and it is normal that we can't hear the sound. If you close the door, you can't hear the sound of the clock outside."

However, Fukunishi Ryota didn't seem to be ready to untie Terai Mitsue. He just stared at Terai Mitsue with his small eyes and said with a sinister smile: "Although that woman from Guangmingji likes to play tricks, I don't actually think she can kill people. And she had no reason to kill those people.”

Mitsue Terai looked at the gleaming arrow and said with a trembling voice: "But it is indeed her that I saw."

"Really?" Fukoshi Ryota looked at Terai Mitsue coldly, "Do you think I believe you or myself?" After saying that, Fukoshi Ryota put his index finger on the trigger of the crossbow, and the arrow glowed with cold light. It refers to the heart of Mitsue Terai.

Mitsue Terai and Ryota Fukunishi looked at each other, and they could hear needles dropping all around them.

"Ha, it seems you didn't lie." Fukunishi Ryota broke the rope with the tip of his arrow, and Terai Mitsue broke free from the restraints and hid behind Akai Shuichi.

Jun Kawahara exhaled slowly, "Huh~ Fukunishi Ryota, you almost scared me to death, I really thought you were going to kill her." After saying that, he looked at Mitsue Terai, "Do you know where Mikoto is at Guangmingji Temple? ?”

Terai Mitsue shook his head, "I don't know, I was tied here when I woke up. She might be nearby." Terai Mitsue looked around warily, frowning, maybe feeling the pain of the wound, He reached out to touch his head and said with some confusion, "Huh? Did Miss Guangmingji bandage it for me? To be honest, at that time, I really thought she was going to kill me."

Kawahara Sakijun stared at the gauze on Mitsue Terai's head for a long time, and after confirming that it was bandaged for her at that time, he said: "It's not Mikoto Kokoji, it was bandaged for you after we found out you were injured. You were still there at that time. Comatose, but then you were kidnapped by her."

"Where is Miss Koshimizu?" Mitsue Terai looked around at everyone, "Where are Mr. Kobayakawa and Mr. Nonomiya?"

Kawahara Sakijun looked into the dark corner without looking at Mitsue Terai, "Both Noriko and Kobayakawa are dead. Thanks to Kobayakawa, we discovered the secret passage."

Mitsue Terai covered his mouth, tears falling down, "No way, this is all a lie."

"That crazy old man Nonomiya probably won't die. After all, he wants to build a fortune teller." Ryota Fukunishi looked around with a flashlight and saw no one else. "Let's get out of here first."

When everyone left the dark passage and stood in the dim light, listening to the ticking clock in their ears, they felt as if they had just returned from hell.

At this time, the clock on the wall has the hour hand pointing at the number 10 and the minute hand pointing at the number 12.

"I want to go to room 12 to see Mr. Nonomiya." Mitsue Terai wiped his tears.

Kawahara Saki Jun glanced at Fukunishi Ryota and found that the other party had put away the crossbow, so he said: "I will accompany you there. Now a person acting alone may be attacked."

Fukunishi Ryota stared at Kawahara Sakijun, "Didn't you and Kobayakawa go to the toilet together? Why was Kobayakawa the only one who died? What were you doing at that time?"

Kawahara Sakijun paused as soon as he reached the door, "I was negligent. When Kobayakawa went to the toilet, I went to room 12. Because I always heard children singing nursery rhymes in my ears, I thought It was the fortune teller who cursed me. Kobayakawa once told me that a blood-stained wedding dress always suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, but when he took a closer look, it disappeared again."

Fukoshi Ryota gritted his teeth and said nothing.

Everyone came to room 12 together. The kicked-in door could not be closed again. Nonomiya Taichi had fallen asleep under the quilt at the corner of the bed. Terai Mitsue shook him awake. Nonomiya Taichi rubbed his cloudy eyes, looked at Terai Mitsue, and said with aggrieved voice, "Mitsue, Mitsue."

"Mr. Nonomiya, I'm here."

Fukunishi Ryota stopped looking at the two people hugging each other and walked to Akai Shuichi, "Hey, where do you think the woman from Guangming Temple is now?"

Akai Shuichi crossed his arms, "How did I know? If I had known that these things would happen, I would not have brought my sisters here."

"Where do you think is the safest place?" Fukunishi Ryota looked at Akai Shuichi, his small eyes full of temptation.

Ming Yue, standing next to Akai Shuichi, said: "It is safest to leave this clock tower."

"Hahahaha..." Ryota Fukoshi laughed loudly, "Indeed, it is safest to leave here, but we are all imprisoned here, and no one can leave."

Several people sat in the restaurant, Terai Mitsue prepared some hot food, but except for Nonomiya Taichi, the others had little appetite.

After exchanging glances, Mingyue and the others refused to eat anything.

However, Mitsue Terai advised: "How can you not eat when you are still growing? Mr. Zhuhoshi, if you don't eat, how can you have the strength to take care of your sisters?"

Akai Shuichi didn't speak, just closed his eyes and rested, thinking about how to solve the current situation, what kind of secrets were hidden in these bell towers, and why the organization sent people to investigate.

"Sister Terai, we really don't have much appetite, especially after thinking that they won't be able to eat delicious food." Mingyue looked at the hall opposite, with sadness in her eyes.

Terai Mitsue could only lament and stopped persuading him. He just looked at Mingyue with evil eyes where no one could see him.

After Nonomiya Taichi finished eating, he leaned on the back of the chair and dozed off.

Fukunishi Ryota stared at Kawahara Sakijun without saying a word. Kawahara Sakijun put his head with his hands, his eyes were sad, as if he was thinking about something.

Miyano Shiho yawned, leaned close to Ming Yue, and whispered: "The way Kobayakawa Shigeru died was different from the previous ones. The element of clocks appeared in several previous cases, but in that case a knife was used. .”

Mingyue closed her eyes and replied softly: "Well, and after the murder, the murderer still ran past our eyes like that. It's really unreasonable. After all, there is a secret passage behind the glazed clock in Room 11. Obviously, we can pass through the secret passage. To leave, we have to run into the room we lived in before and escape through the secret passage."

Although the girls spoke not loudly, they were still heard by the people around them.

Fukunishi Ryota held the crossbow in his hand and pointed the arrow tip at Kawahara Sakijun, "Were you really in room 12 at that time?"

Kawahara Sakijun was startled at first, and then he saw the shimmering arrow tip pointing at his eyebrows, "I don't need to lie. After Kobayakawa and I came to this bell tower, we both felt the supernatural presence, and that kind of I feel completely out of my control.”

"I said, there is only one place where there is a ghost, and that is the human heart." Ryota Fukunishi stared at Kawahara Sakijun, "Tell me, how did you get to know Guangmingji? What films has she made?"

Kawahara Sakijun sighed, "Yes, she found me."

"How could you let her make that kind of film?" Fukunishi Ryota's eyes were burning and he gritted his teeth and said, "Where are those films?"

"In my house, it's not for sale."

Fukoshi Ryota's eyes narrowed, "You are her new lover."

"It doesn't matter, I didn't promise her. If Guangmingji is your former girlfriend, you should know what kind of person she is." Kawahara Sakijun looked sincere.

Fukunishi Ryota put down the crossbow in his hand, "Yes, I know it very well. That woman can do anything for fire. She can even frame her savior. As long as you give her money or give her enough benefits, what will she do? You can do anything. If this museum owner promised her any benefits, she might be trying to kill us now."

Akai Shuichi opened his eyes and looked at Ming Yue. Ming Yue nodded slightly and confirmed Fukunishi Ryota's statement.

Indeed, as long as Mikoto Mikoto is given enough benefits, she is willing to do anything. She is like a criminal wandering outside the edge of morality, with no loyalty, no morality, and only herself in her heart.

"Ha!" Fukoshi Ryota sneered, "Will I believe you if you say that?"

Jun Kawarahara shook his head, "You won't trust anyone, just like Mikoto Kokoji, you are the same type of people, the only one you can trust is yourself."

"Director, you did this scene, right? The woman from Guangming Temple can't think of this. What did you promise her? The position of the heroine? Use this mysterious bell tower as the theme to create a beautiful and mysterious ghost spirit. Master?" Fukunishi Ryota stared at Kawahara Sakijun, seemingly smiling, but it was like the whisper of a devil.

Kawahara Sakijun frowned, "Why should I kill them? And among the dead are the cameramen I brought."

"Hey! The reason why you want to kill them is very simple. If you want to become a famous director, you have to cover up the things you have done in the past." Fukunishi Ryota said with a fierce look on his face, "You were the one who led us ten years ago. We came here to dig traps to catch wild boars, but we failed to catch wild boars. Instead, Gu'e, who lives nearby, fell into our trap and died forever."

Terai Mitsue took a breath of air, covered his mouth, and whispered: "Did you dig those traps?!"

"At that time, I was the little brother who followed you and was devoted to you. The great director." Fukunishi Ryota sneered.

However, at this time, Kawahara Sakijun looked calm, "Then why do you think I killed Utsumi Atsushi?"

"That camera, the camera must have taken some things that shouldn't have been taken." Ryota Fukunishi said firmly, "Of course we didn't find that camera, so naturally you won't admit anything."

Kawahara Sakijun glanced at everyone, "You won't believe anything I say now. Tell me, what do you want?"

In the end, Kawahara Sakijun volunteered to be tied to the carousel on the sixth floor.

"You are here alone. We are on the fifth floor. If the woman from Guangming Temple appears, just shout. Don't worry, we will come up to rescue you as quickly as possible. As long as we catch the woman from Guangming Temple, we will all be safe. "Fukunishi Ryota looked at Kawahara Sakijun riding on the pink carousel, "We will come here at seven o'clock tomorrow morning to release you. During this period, if you are killed, it means you are innocent; otherwise, all of this will You are the mastermind behind this."

Kawahara Saki Jun lay down on the horse resignedly, "Are you so sure that I am the one behind the scenes?"

"Yes, just because we have been friends for more than 20 years."

"Don't they have this possibility?"

Fukunishi Ryota looked at Akai Shuichi, "If you tell him, although I have doubted it before, he cannot be the lover of the woman at Guangming Temple."

"Because he has a girlfriend?" Kawahara Sakijun looked at Akai Shuichi.

Fukunishi Ryota looked at Mingyue and Miyano Shiho, "Yes, but not entirely."

"Nonomiya is incapable of doing this. Mitsue Terai has been attacked, so you don't doubt them?" Jun Kawahara said the doubts in his heart.

Ryota Fukoshi shook his head, "No, actually I don't believe in anyone. I only believe in myself. You know this very well." After that, he shook the crossbow in his hand and turned and walked downstairs.

"Ryouta!" Kawahara Sakijun shouted.

Fukunishi Ryota turned his back to Kawahara Sakijun, "What's wrong?"

"If I call for help, you will come up and save me, right? After all, I am a plump earthworm hanging on a fishhook." Kawahara Sakijun looked at Fukunishi Ryota's back with a smile on his lips, because he had already planned it in his heart .

Just as Ryota Fukunishi guessed, Mikoto Kokoji's lover was indeed Jun Kawahara Saki. The two of them were not only lovers, but also had interests bound together.

Therefore, when Jun Kawaharazaki learned that the murderer was Mikoto Kokoji, he was a little surprised, but not surprised. That woman was indeed capable of doing these things.

He was just a little angry that Kokoji Mikoto didn't follow his script. As for Utsumi Atsushi's death, it was just the death of a cameraman. Of course, in his heart, Kawahara Sakijun hoped that Kokoji Mikoto could kill Fukunishi Ryota and the rest of the people in the clock tower.

Because things have come to this, there is no need to continue wearing that hypocritical mask. After all, if you want to become a famous director, you have to find a way to erase the stains in the past.

What kind of person can keep a secret? Of course he is a dead person~

Kawahara Sakijun looked around. To be honest, he was looking forward to seeing Mikoto Kokoji.

In the mansion, the twelve o'clock bell rang, and the housekeeper Ibo and the owner Koechi sent Ireland and Ikuda Gunda back to the guest room.

"Tomorrow at 12 noon, we can go to the Past Bell Tower and Future Bell Tower." Ireland looked at the owner Gu Ezhi.

The owner of the museum, Gu Ezhi, smiled and shook his head, "No, it's twelve o'clock today, because the zero o'clock bell has already sounded, and a new day has arrived."

"Master, actually I have always had a doubt. There are three bell towers, why is there only one bell tower ringing?" Gunda Ikumi had a professional smile on her face.

Gu Ezhi smiled and praised sincerely: "As expected of Miss Detective, you have discovered all this."

"Please also ask the owner to help us clear up our doubts."

"Well, actually I don't know. Maybe if the detective lady deciphers the poem on the tombstone, all the mysteries will be solved." Gu Ezhi smiled meaningfully.

Butler Yibo looked at the owner Gu Ezhi and said with a smile: "Tomorrow is Miss Forever's birthday."

"Well, yes. It would be great if she was still alive." Gu Ezhi still had a warm smile on his face.

Gunda Ikumi and Ireland looked at each other.

In the "Future" clock tower, Jun Kawahara looked at the clock in front of him boredly. The hands were swinging slowly, and the hour and minute hands were about to overlap.

At this time, there was a rustling sound of clothes rubbing together from behind.

"Mikoto! Are you?" Kawahara Sakijun turned his head and looked back. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't see the face of the person behind him. He could only see a corner of the dark spiritual clothes.

Kawahara Saki Jun continued: "Are you here to let me go? But after you let me go, my suspicion becomes bigger. You go and kill the others first, and kill Fukunishi Ryota first."

After waiting for a long time, Kawahara Sakijun didn't get a response from the person behind him, so he frowned and said, "You won't be unable to do it just because he is your ex-boyfriend. Hmph, you have to know that that kind of person is only worthy of being mine. Little brother, if it weren’t for you being exposed, how could I have been tied up in this place by him.”

However, there was still no response from behind. Jun Kawahara tried his best to turn his head, but he saw a piano wire with a cold light flashing in front of his eyes, and there was a hint of coldness on his neck.

At this time, Kawahara Sakijun realized that the person behind him was not Mikoto Kokoji at all, and shouted loudly, but the sound was covered up by the sound of the bell.

Everyone sitting in the circular corridor on the fifth floor of the "Future" Bell Tower was awakened by the sound of the bell. However, the bells heard at this time seemed to be mixed with other sounds.

When the bell ended, everyone heard the sound, and everyone's hair stood on end.

"Red dragonfly in the sunset~ Where are you~ I met you in my childhood~ What day was that..."

"It's that nursery rhyme!" Miyano Shiho looked up towards the sixth floor, his heart beating wildly in his chest.

"Pick up the small basket and come to the mountain~The mulberry trees are as green as the shade~Pick the mulberry fruits and put them in the small basket~Could it be Mengying..."

Fukunishi Ryota held the crossbow tightly in his hand, gritted his teeth and ran upstairs.

"Fifteen-year-old young lady~ got married far away~ left her hometown for a long time and couldn't return~ and there is little news..."

Mitsue Terai said tremblingly: "Let's go up too."

"Red dragonfly in the sunset~where are you~resting on the tip of the bamboo pole~is that red dragonfly..."

Mingyue squeezed Miyano Shiho's cold little hand and asked softly: "Do you want to go up?"

Before Miyano Shiho could answer, Fukunishi Ryota's hysterical shouting came from upstairs: "Heyuan! Heyuan! Heyuan!"

A head with wide eyes slowly rolled down the spiral staircase. The bright red blood was like the roses blooming on the stairs, bright and dazzling.

That nursery rhyme is still echoing in my ears, the melodious and beautiful children's voice, the relaxing and joyful melody.

"Ah!" Mitsue Terai screamed.

Mingyue saw that the incision was very neat, and the neck muscles were still trembling slightly, so she judged that it was cut while she was still alive. Turning to look at Akai Shuichi, "I'll go up and take a look." After saying that, he was about to walk upstairs, but his hand was held by Miyano Shiho.

"Together!"

Everyone came upstairs, even Nonomiya Taiqi walked up tremblingly.

The carousel was spinning slowly, and the nursery rhyme was emanated from the carousel. Heyuan Qirun's body was still tied to the pink wooden horse, but at this time, the wooden horse had been dyed crimson with blood, and the blood followed the wooden horse up and down. The beating and spraying.

A bloody piano wire was wrapped around the middle pillar of the carousel.

At this time, Nonomiya Taichi seemed to be stimulated by something, and shouted in a high voice: "We will all die! We will all die! Everyone here will die!"

call out!

A sound broke through the air!

"what!"

A scream!

thump...

A dull sound of falling to the ground.

Nonomiya Taichi had a crossbow arrow stuck in his chest, and he was about to die.

Fukunishi Ryota raised his crossbow, his eyes widened with a fierce look, "It's a prophecy, then you should die first!"

"Mr. Nonomiya!" Mitsue Terai sat down next to Taichi Nonomiya and shook him a few times with his hands, but Taichi Nonomiya had already made no sound.

Terai Mitsue raised his head and looked at Fukunishi Ryota and shouted in a sharp voice: "You killed Mr. Nonomiya!"

Fukunishi Ryota pointed his crossbow at Mitsue Terai, "Yes, I killed him, what happened?" As soon as he finished speaking, all the lights went out, and the bell tower fell into darkness.

Darkness came without warning, catching everyone off guard.

Ryota Fukoshi yelled, "Who! Who did it!"

However, no one responded to him.

Akai Shuichi frowned. The sudden darkness made his eyes unable to see anything. He stretched out his hand to touch, but the girls were not in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel nervous. Hearing the sound of breaking through the air, he barely dodged an arrow that was shot at him, but another one shot at him and scratched the black spiritual clothes.

Mingyue saw Miyano Shiho take a few steps back out of fear, tripped over the fake plant and fell to the ground, making a sound of pain, and then an arrow was shot at Miyano Shiho.

In the darkness, Miyano Shiho fumbled to stand up, but Ming Yue threw her to the ground. A few drops of warm liquid fell on her face. She was about to ask, but her mouth was covered.

Mingyue glanced at the arrow that penetrated her right shoulder, gritted her teeth, and prevented herself from making any sound. Pulling up Miyano Shiho, he ran towards Akai Shuichi.

Akai Shuichi smelled a smell of blood, his clothes were pulled, and he ran down the stairs. As time passed by and his eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, he saw an arrow stuck in Mingyue's right shoulder.

Several people ran to the kitchen and closed the door.

The bright moon lit a gas stove, and blue flames jumped out, illuminating a small area.

Miyano Shiho rummaged through the cupboard, found a few candles, and lit one, illuminating the area with orange flames.

Mingyue handed a pair of kitchen scissors to Akai Shuichi, her voice trembling slightly, "Help me cut off the arrow."

"You want to pull out the arrow?" Akai Shuichi tore open Mingyue's clothes. In the process of escaping, the wound was already torn. "You will bleed profusely if you pull out the arrow now!"

Mingyue gritted her back teeth and said, "Cut it when I tell you to. Don't talk so much. Isn't this the result of Mr. Bodyguard's negligence in his job?"

Miyano Shiho held a candle and looked at Ming Yue's right shoulder, and said softly: "This arrow is aimed at me. If it weren't for Ming Yue, I would have died."

In the orange candlelight, Miyano Shiho seemed to see a hint of purple on Mingyue's bright red blood, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

"Actually, I feel very uncomfortable like this, and we can't stay here for long. If there is light, they will come here." Mingyue said in a deep voice, as if she was enduring something, and her body could not stop shaking.

Miyano Shiho lowered his head, his bangs covering most of his expression, and his voice came out from between his teeth, "Cut it for her and let her pull it out."

Akai Shuichi cut off the arrowhead, and Miyano Shiho pulled the arrow shaft out of his shoulder with red eyes. He pressed a clean handkerchief on the wound. The blood soon wet the handkerchief. However, the heavy bleeding that Akai Shuichi imagined did not happen.

The bright moon turned off the gas stove, blew out the candles, and plunged the surroundings into darkness.

Miyano Shiho sniffed and said in a hoarse voice: "How can you not cherish yourself like this!"

"Sister Shiho, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have put you in danger. I will find a way to end this mission." Mingyue's tone seemed very relaxed.

"How do you want to end it? We have no way to contact the outside world. Even if Ireland is outside, he doesn't know what our situation is now."

Akai Shuichi's eyes had basically adapted to the darkness. He looked at Mingyue, expecting what kind of plan she had.

Mingyue searched for a lightweight knife in the cupboard, "If your life is threatened, you must eliminate all hidden dangers. I will clean it up without leaving any traces."

Miyano Shiho gritted his teeth and said, "Mingyue, the investigation of this mission is not over yet."

Mingyue was slightly stunned.

Miyano Shiho looked at the clock on the wall. The hour hand on the clock gradually approached 4, and the minute hand pointed at the number 10.
