"Well……"

What the hell!

Looking at the things in the cave, Shu Yunwen felt a little nervous, trembled, and quickly retracted his head——

Damn it! This scene is not much different than eighteen corpses lined up on the beach, right? Normal people will have nightmares at night after watching it, okay?

As for Aida Hikoichi, the expression on his face was extremely solemn, and he shouted loudly: "Find more forensic investigators immediately! Decisive evidence was found here..."

"Yes!" a policeman responded and ran away immediately.

The few remaining policemen looked at each other back and forth, then took a few steps towards Jiagu Liansan, forming a surrounding posture.

Keshui Nanatsuki walked behind Shu Yunwen and looked carefully into the cave for a few times before stepping back and holding his chin in one hand: "There are a total of eighteen bottles. Each one is sealed very well. The liquid inside , should be formalin to prevent corpses from decomposing. According to one finger in a bottle, there should be eighteen fingers in it, consistent with the number of deceased people. On the outside, there are electric shock rods, ropes, Pliers, etc., these should be the murder weapons..."

"Ah! Are there really fingers inside?" Sonoko also took a careful look, and then screamed, "So, is this where the Jiagu Butler hid the victim's fingers?"

"It looks like it can't be wrong. After all, no one would be so bored as to put some fake fingers in a jar and put them in a place like this, right?"

Koshizui Nanatsuki smiled slightly: "Butler Kotani, you really made Master Aobo eat these fingers off, and even let Master Aobo swallow them directly into his stomach, just like the legend!"

"Wait a minute, Detective Koshisui, what do you mean by this?" Aida Hikoichi looked confused.

Shu Yunwen turned around and explained: "This should be regarded as the motive for Jiagu Butler to commit serial murders, right?"

"Butler Kotani and the wife of the Otsuka family who died in a car accident four years ago both believe in the evil god of their hometown, who is the Lord Aobo in One Hundred Demons at Night."

"The legends about Qingbozhu vary from region to region. In Jiagu Guanjia's hometown, Qingbozhu was transformed by a monk who died of starvation. It is a kind of abductor who can abduct people and hang themselves. When the person hangs, he eats The evil god who drops the little finger of the right hand of a hung person. Because, in this legend, the human soul is stored in the right little finger of the person. The evil god who is starving to death can only fill his stomach by eating the soul."

"It is precisely because of this that people in Kamisagawa Town, Sorachi County, Hokkaido, believe that if someone's right little finger is broken before death, the soul will be trapped in the little finger and cannot become a Buddha! If you still want to transcend, you must move towards The evil god enshrines other people’s right little fingers and lets the evil god eat them..."

"Officer Aida, you still remember the photos of Mrs. Otsuka's death scene, right?"

"Of course I remember the scene of Madam's death, the little finger of her right hand..." Aida Hikoichi nodded immediately and understood. He looked at Kotani Renzo in surprise and disbelief, "...could it be because of that? Is this the reason?"

"Yes, that's why." Nanatsuki Koshizui looked at Kotani Renzo and spoke softly, "Butler Kotani did not hesitate to commit the crime in order to make the dead lady's soul transcend and ascend to heaven and become a Buddha..."

"But, if it is for this reason, other people in the villa should also have motives for killing, right? For example, the dead master..." Aida Hikoichi continued to object.

"It can't be the master, and it can't be anyone else." Koshimizu Nanatsuki shook his head, "Because, except for Mr. Kotani, no one else in this villa believes in the evil god Aobo Master!"

"How do you know?" Aida Yanichi asked.

At this time, Shu Yunwen opened his mouth to explain again: "About this, if you ask the people in the villa, it should be easy to know. In this villa, the only person who comes to worship Qingfang Master every day is the Jiagu Butler. That’s right, Mrs. Asai.”

"No, that's right." Asai Ruri nodded quickly, "At least, from what I've seen, except for the housekeeper Jiagu, no one else will go to the shrine..."

"Me, it's the same for me. I only saw the butler coming to the shrine." Chef Futian replied.

"Me too." Gardener Yamamoto also had the same expression.

Aida Yanichi looked at Fukuda and Yamamoto suspiciously: "Is there really no one? For example, the chef Fukuda, the gardener Yamamoto, or the dead master. They may be accomplices. In this case, they may hide that they will come to the shrine. Things..."

Koshizui Nanatsuki shook his head and said: "There is no such possibility. According to the confessions of other servants in the villa, Butler Kotani routinely comes to the shrine to 'make offerings' every morning and afternoon, and he is alone. .Officer Aida, look at the table in the shrine, don’t you think something is missing here?”

"What...is missing?" Aida Hiko looked at the offering table with an incense burner and two candles, "Is there anything missing here?"

"It's an offering! There are no offerings to the gods on the table here!" Shu Yunwen is also a ghost wizard who pretends to be a magician, so he is certainly familiar with this. "On the offering table, incense burners and candles are also considered offerings. , However, it is also necessary to put some food and water on the table. Since Butler Jiagu is here to worship the gods, of course he will not forget such an important thing..."

"...Guess what the 'offerings' he offers here every day will be?"

"Uh... Could it be..." Aida Hiko glanced at the glass bottle in the cave behind the statue, and the finger inside the glass bottle.

Koshizui Nanatsuki said seriously: "The offerings made by Butler Kotani to Master Aobo, but according to their legend, Master Aobo's favorite food is the little finger of his right hand that stores the soul in it!"

"He would really put that kind of thing on the table as an offering?" Tsukamoto Sumi and the others felt disgusted in their hearts.

"Of course, it can't be wrong. Because there are really no ordinary offerings on the offering table here." Koshimizu Nanatsuki nodded seriously, "...Maybe in the beginning, there will be some on the offering table here. Wearing more normal things. However, probably because it had been so long, the Jiagu housekeeper was too lazy to bring ordinary offerings here, and it was troublesome to pack them up, so I came empty-handed."

"... There are such dangerous 'offerings' on the table. If Butler Jiagu really has an accomplice, he will definitely ask the accomplice to come with him and help him stand guard, right? Since Butler Jiagu is only one person every time, That means he has no accomplice!”

"This... If you say so, it is indeed true." Aida Hiko smiled dryly, but after a moment of thought, he raised an objection, "... But this still doesn't make sense, does it? Could it be that the servants of the Otsuka family really didn't Will people come here to the temple?"

"Of course there will be. However, as long as Butler Kotani locks the door from the inside, he won't have to worry about being seen, and he will have enough time to clear the 'offerings' on the table." Koshizui Nanatsuki pointed at the back of the door. plug.

Aida Yan was stunned for a moment: "Plug in the door lock? It's okay to be discovered once or twice, but if it happens too many times, someone will definitely find something abnormal..."

"Of course. So, Butler Kotani came up with a good idea. Even if he is discovered many times, it will not arouse others' suspicion." Koshimizu Nanatsuki said with a smile, "The number of servants in the Otsuka family is not It’s a small number, but the only ones who have worked here for a long time are chef Fukuda and gardener Yamamoto. Among the rest, the ones who have worked the longest have only been working here for four months. Don’t you think it’s strange?”

"The reason why the servants in the villa are all newcomers is because all the servants who disturbed Butler Jiagu have been fired!"

"They were all... fired?!" Aida Hikoichi was surprised.

"That's right. Mr. Yamamoto, the gardener, once said that I have a very tough character. If any of the servants in the villa are disobedient, I will ask Butler Kotani to fire him. As a butler, Kotani has many opportunities to make these servants People deliberately make mistakes in front of the master and then take the opportunity to fire them. As long as the master is angry, other servants will not feel strange."

“Every servant who disturbs Butler Jiagu will be fired. Butler Jiagu’s strange behavior of bolting the door in the shrine, naturally no one will know about it~”

"I see, that's how it is..." Aida Yanyi suddenly realized.

Koshizui Nanatsuki continued: "Mrs. Asai, I remember you once said that the housekeeper Kotani often told the people in the villa that it would be best to visit Lord Aobo together, right? What the housekeeper said when he said that was actually to say that You have to distinguish which of you are likely to go to worship the statue! Once someone really expresses the idea of ​​​​wanting to worship together, Jiagu Butler will find an opportunity to fire them."

"Also, although the chef, Mr. Fukuda, made the master angry and almost got fired because of his cooking, in the end, the housekeeper Kotani helped to dissuade the master. That's because he knew that Mr. Fukuda would not disturb his worship. Statue of God... If Mr. Fukuda is really fired, it may not be easy to find a chef who will not disturb him!"

"As for my reasoning, if the police want to confirm it, they only need to find those servants who have been fired and ask a few words, and the truth will be revealed!"

"So... is that so..." Sanji Fukuda hid in a corner again - he thought at first that Kenzo Kotani was thinking about his old relationship, so... now it seems that he really thought too much.

Koshizui Nanatsuki continued: "Based on the above reasons, I can confirm that Koutani Renzo must have committed the crime alone without any accomplices! If there is an accomplice, as long as there is an accomplice to cooperate, there is no need for him to go to such trouble. "

Aida Yanichi has basically believed it now: "It is indeed true."

Koshizui Nanatsuki continued: "Since Butler Kotani uses 'offerings' to worship the evil god in the shrine every day, I believe he doesn't have the energy to clean the 'offerings' glass bottle every time, right?"

"Next, as soon as the forensics personnel come, they can easily collect Jiagu Butler's fingerprints, skin flakes, and hair from the things inside. These are all things you can't rely on."

"Butler Jiagu, at this time, why don't you plead guilty?!"
