How I was forced to be the villain

The war raged on for some time, and no one could stand aside from the fire that consumed everything.

Finally, they faced a situation of powerlessness.

Those who can go to the battlefield have long been buried in the battlefield, and now only young children are left in the rear.

The atmosphere of despair and grief is like a monster that loves people. They finally found that in the finale of this war, no one can get anything.

They have paid too much, and the loss of stopping is far more than continuing, but now, there is nothing to lose.

The political environment is filled with the same silence as the enemy.

There is no bottom line for human beings to endure pain. When the tight string is broken, the voice of resistance finally erupts.

"We don't need war!"

If the price of saving the world is sacrificing oneself, I believe that half of the people can be persuaded to retreat. If the sacrifice of all mankind is added, it is estimated that everyone can be persuaded to dismiss.

Now, this is what Shizheng is facing. If they continue to fight against the retrograde army, they will face the risk of extinction. No one can make such a determination.

And the retrograde army didn't go there easily, they didn't have as many people as Shizheng.

The war does not end with the victory of one side, but with the cooperation of those left behind by the war.

Those who supported the retrograde army behind the scenes and those who supported current affairs united.

The benefits of changing history seem to be far away, and the effectiveness of protecting history has not yet been seen. They don't want to deal with this damn history anymore, they just want ordinary life.

Asai Taku also removed all his defenses, sat quietly in the room, leaning back on the back of the chair.

"For this day... I paid too high a price." His eyes fell on the void.

There were fighting sounds everywhere outside.

The coalition army intending to end the war broke through the base camp of the retrograde army, and it would not take much time to find it.

Takuya Asai sighed deeply, feeling that he must be the one to bear this crime.

"But that person shouldn't think it's a crime..."

The door was kicked open heavily.

Takuya Asai slowly closed his eyes.

......

"Ahhhh-!!!"

Kyonoyan covered his ears calmly.

How should I put it, as expected...

When I was with Conan, I was often invited to participate in some activities, and the host never showed up on time. When I found it, it was usually accompanied by a scream and a cold corpse.

"Although this Mr. Housekeeper looks quite old, his body still seems to be very strong."

Look at this angry shout.

Because he hadn't had breakfast yet, Jing Yeyan took a piece of bread from the middle of the table, and stood up first, "Let's go and see... Which prisoner is so overwhelmed."

It's fine to commit a crime, but you have to invite detectives, and you have to invite the strongest detectives. I don't know if it's provocative or stupid.

Reminded by Qingjing Yeyan's words, everyone's confused thoughts gradually became clear. Although they didn't know what happened, they were reminded to this point, and it was almost time to react to what happened.

Although Kyono Yan was the first to leave, he soon fell to the end, and Dazai Osamu.

He leisurely followed with the bread in his mouth, not in a hurry at all.

That's right, there is chaos, no matter what kind of case happened, it's not a matter of just looking at it.

When Kyono Yan finished eating the bread, Osamu Dazai handed over the bottle he had been holding.

Kyono Yan took it and found that it was juice.

"Well, thank you."

Kyono turned his head and looked at Osamu Dazai, this guy was unexpectedly careful... It's not right, Dazai seems to have always been sharp, no matter how small the details are, it is difficult to escape from his eyes, but... ...this kind of carefulness is rarely used in this kind of place.

"What's the matter? Keep looking at me." Osamu Dazai turned his head and looked at him with a smile.

The sight around him is quickly turning into substance, and it is difficult to ignore it.

Kyonoyan turned his head naturally, "It's nothing."

When the two of them walked to the scene of the accident, the door was already full of people.

There are familiar faces and unfamiliar faces.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Tanizaki Junichiro turned his head and waved to the two of them, "This way."

His face was not very good-looking, as if he had seen something terrible.

Jing Yeyan's first reaction was that the scene was very bloody, but after pushing aside the crowd and seeing the scene inside, he found that it was not the case.

The scene was not bloody, and could even be called peaceful and quiet.

But when Jing Yeyan stood at the door and met those eyes staring straight at the door, his whole body shuddered.

The man who commissioned the detective agency to investigate sleeping sickness... died.

The deceased sat behind the desk facing the door, neatly dressed, with eyes open and facing straight ahead, with a faint smile on his face.

It's like he's alive and waiting for your arrival.

It looked like a lifeless puppet, with a strange aura.

"Father!!"

Kunikida stopped the young man with red hair. He has a baby face and looks very small, but those who know his information will know that this is the eldest son of the deputy mayor. He is 28 this year. Different, he did not embark on a political career, was obsessed with art, and is now a well-known violinist.

"I'm sorry, my brother has caused you trouble." The man standing next to the eldest son had half-length black hair, a neat suit, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. Although he couldn't hide his pain, he was still calm.

The second son of the deputy mayor's family is also an illegitimate son. He is three months behind the eldest son. He is said to be two years younger in name. He was only recognized by the deputy mayor who was disappointed with the eldest son three years ago. Sad.

Kyono Yan and Kunikida looked at each other, and Kunikida nodded to him and let him in.

"Hey, why can he go in!" Leaning against the wall and wrapping her hair with her fingers, the coquettish woman who seemed not to care said dissatisfied.

Hearing this, Jingye turned his head and smiled at her.

A spring-like smile suddenly appeared on that indifferent face, as if it was only because of seeing her, but it was fleeting, as if everything was an illusion created by imagination.

The woman blushed suddenly, her momentum weakened a lot, and she muttered and couldn't speak.

Kunikida adjusted his glasses, but decided to explain: "This is also a member of our club."

Although women no longer care about this answer.

......

Hearing someone's voice, Jing Yeyan looked back.

After seeing the person clearly, he thought in his heart that with the addition of the two young masters on one side, the suspects should be complete. Among the three, there must be an idiot who must commit the crime when the detective is present, so he smiled lovingly at her. smiled.

When he got closer, Jing Yeyan immediately noticed the hands of the deceased half clenched into fists, clasped unnaturally on the table.

He took out a pair of white gloves from his pocket and put them on, then went to remove the dead man's hand, a flash of light flashed, Jing Yeyan closed his eyes, opened them again, and after seeing what it was, he froze for a moment.

red gemstone.

This is impossible, it must have been dealt with yesterday!

"The corpse has no obvious trauma, and there are no obvious symptoms of drug poisoning," Edogawa Ranpo also noticed the gemstone held by the deceased, "This is..."

The old butler became excited when he saw the jewel: "The jewel! It must be this jewel! The master died of the jewel's curse!"

Jing Yeyan squinted his eyes and looked over, "Oh? Do you have any evidence?"

"The curse of this jewel caused the lady to fall into a deep sleep, and now it has killed the master." The butler cried with tears.

Jing Yeyan never thought that an ordinary butler would directly expose the secret of the gemstone.

To be honest, it's been a bit unbelievable so far.

After briefly investigating the corpse and the crime scene, they returned to the living room by themselves.

It was supposed to call the police, but under the dissuasion of the second young master, it was temporarily shelved.

The reason is——

"Since everyone from the detective agency is here, I believe in everyone's strength, so I hope to find the clues of the criminal first and then disclose the news. In this way, we can have more initiative in the next thing."

After all, he is a deputy mayor, so let's not show how much turmoil the death of a deputy mayor will cause. The mystery of the light gem is enough to cause panic among ordinary people.

"The body has no trace of movement, the deceased just sat there to die." Edogawa Ranpo said.

That alone is suspicious enough.

Is there really a way in this world to make the victim stay in the same place and die with a smile on his face?

As long as you feel pain, you should be struggling. It is impossible to sit still like that.

Jing Yeyan looked at the elderly housekeeper, "What do you mean by the curse you said before, why did you say that the dead died because of the curse of the gemstone?"

After all, the butler has seen strong winds and waves, so he can barely sort out his mood.

"Actually, this matter is what the master said."

"Oh?"

"I don't know when that gemstone appeared, but when I saw it, the master said it was found from the lady's side. At that time, the master told me that there was a curse on the gemstone, and the lady would die sooner or later because of the curse." Death, the person who cast the curse must be found before that."

This passage made Kyonoyan fall into deep thought. It sounded like it was slightly different from the one in his hand. He had seen it before, and there was no foul smell on that gem. It was unlikely that there was a curse or something. Only Possibly possesses supernatural powers, but...

"When you saw it, did the dead man hold this jewel in his hand?"

"Yes, I know that there is a curse attached to it, but the master is still playing with it in his hand. Now that I think about it, I really... if only I could stop it."

Now Jing Yeyan can be sure that this gemstone did not flow out of his hand, nor does it have any supernatural powers attached to it. In other words, this ordinary gemstone can only be the deputy mayor's own.

Then, the lies that create curses can only be...

Jing Yeyan suddenly felt a gust of cool wind blowing, his body temperature was also taken away by this gust of wind, and his body felt a little chilly.

Such a truth may be more terrifying than any curse.

Herzen's supernatural ability will not kill her, and the lady will only fall into a deep sleep.In order to make the death curse come true, the deputy mayor may do anything.

Edogawa Ranpo looked over as if feeling something, and the two looked at each other, seeing the heaviness in each other's eyes.

Edogawa Ranpo suddenly looked at the butler, "Excuse me, can we go and see the sleeping lady?"
