"Ah, little detective, why did you come to see me?"
After leaving the crime scene, Karasumaying went directly to Kawai Suizi's room.
Unlike Kimiko Arai's dark and depressing room, Soko Kawai's room is much brighter and more spacious.
Except for the divination table in the middle, there was almost no other furniture in the room.
Looking at this incredibly empty room, Karasuma Ying was stunned for a moment.
"Miss Kawai's room... is really clean."
"Yes, after all, I am a newcomer who has only been here for a week, and many things have not been arranged yet. The things that have my style are probably the divination props on the table..."
Kawai Shuangzi showed Karasumaying the tarot cards and crystal ball on her table, and said with a smile:
"Using these props to ask questions about the guests' lives, future expectations, and what they don't want to see about themselves...and then we work together to find a solution. This is the job of our fortune tellers."
"Is this the question you asked by manipulating these cards?"
Karasumaying picked up a deck of tarot cards on the table and asked meaningfully.
"Hehehe..."
As if he knew what Karasuma Ying was referring to, Kawai Souko smiled softly.
"At that time, little detective, weren't you also there?"
Without wasting any more words, Karasumaying put down the tarot cards, turned to look at her, and asked directly:
"Why did you plan to have Ms. Arai draw the Grim Reaper twice during the secret symposium?"
"What do you mean?" Kawai Suiko looked at her.
"Magic techniques and psychological suggestion, you used these two methods to make her draw Death cards in succession. What is your purpose?"
"The God of Death chose her, so she died. This is fate... But I never expected that my divination would come true so quickly."
As Kawai Souko said, he took the deck of tarot cards on the table, shuffled them, and handed them to Karasuma Ying.
"Want to draw one, little detective?"
Karasumaying did not stretch out her hand, still looked directly into her eyes, and continued to ask:
"Miss Kawai, why do you think Ms. Arai was killed?"
"Who knows? She has a bad temper, and she might offend someone at some point..."
"Is resentment enough to kill someone?"
"Oh, that woman was just a person who wanted money rather than her life! She deserved her death! I'm actually surprised that she wasn't killed until today?!"
Suddenly, Kawai Suiko's tone was very excited and her expression was a little unnatural. Karasuma Ying looked at her like this and frowned slightly.
[Is the relationship between these two people so bad? 】
"Is there anything going on between Ms. Kawai and Ms. Arai?"
Upon hearing this, Chuangzi Kawai was stunned for a moment, then quickly adjusted himself and replied in a very calm tone:
"No, she and I...have nothing."
"Really……"
Without further stimulating her, Karasuma Ying turned to ask the people around Arai Kimiko.
"I heard that Ms. Arai has a bad relationship with her husband?"
"Yes, I often hear those two people cursing each other to death. Maybe the one who killed that woman was her husband, hehehe..."
"Where are Mr. Yi and Ms. Edano? What is their relationship with Ms. Arai?"
"I'm not sure. I'm not familiar with Yi, but I know that he likes to collect molds for knives and firearms.
As for Edano...ah, I remember that she seemed to have had some trouble with that woman before. It seemed that she was severely scolded by that woman because of money. "
【Money disputes? 】
"Ms. Nakawa, after you left the lounge this afternoon and when we discovered that Ms. Arai was murdered, where were you and what were you doing?"
"I met a few of my guests and then stayed in the room, and that was it."
"Can anyone else prove it?"
"No."
"Understood."
"Little detective, are you doubting me?" Kawai Shuangzi looked at Karasuma Ying and asked with a smile.
"This requires further investigation, excuse me."
After answering her officially, Karasumaying turned and left the room, closing the door for her.
The suspicion of Kawai Suiko is very high. He has a certain motive and the time and space conditions for committing the crime...
But Karasumaying was very concerned about the two details she just mentioned.
Mr. Yi likes to collect knives and gun models, and Ms. Edano and Ms. Arai seem to have a serious money dispute...
After leaving Kawai Suiko's room, Karasumaying came to Ms. Edano's room.
As soon as she opened the door, she was slightly shocked again.
Ms. Edano's room is filled with dolls of various styles, all dressed up in pink and tender colors, as if it were the room of a young lady.
There was also a layer of shiny stuff on the floor of the room, which looked a bit dazzling.
How should I put it...Forget it, there is nothing to say, personal interests and hobbies are different.
"It's Miss Karasuma..."
On the carpet in the room, Ms. Edano looked at Karasumaying, holding two dolls in her hands, and said mysteriously:
"These children's whispers have just told me that you will be here soon."
Not paying attention to her nagging words, Karasumaying began to ask.
She walked to the glass cabinets with the dolls and looked at them while asking.
"Ms. Edano, I see that the workmanship of these dolls is very fine. I guess they are not cheap, right?"
"That's natural, every kid here, they're not the cheap stuff you get on the street."
"I think so. Ms. Edano must have spent a lot of money to buy them."
"Well, indeed..."
"So, is this why, Ms. Edano, you borrowed money from Ms. Arai?" Karasumaying suddenly changed the topic and looked directly at her.
"Um...huh?"
After subconsciously nodding, Ms. Zedano seemed a little flustered and quickly turned her head away, not daring to look directly into her eyes.
"Um, Miss Karasuma, you..."
"Miss Kawai told me."
Karasuma Ying stepped forward, squatted in front of her, and said seriously:
"She said that Ms. Edano, you and Ms. Arai seem to have a financial entanglement, and the two of you even quarreled about it. Can you tell me about this in detail?"
"This, me, that..."
"I know it's hard to talk about this matter. After all, a dead person is involved, but please rest assured, Ms. Edano, that the police will not wrongly accuse any innocent person. Your words will also help us find the real culprit faster, okay? ?”
"Ming, I understand..."
Faced with Karasumaying's gentle persuasion, Ms. Edano struggled for a moment, and finally said:
"I did borrow money from her..."
