Chapter 39 Three photos(1/2)
After Liu Mengchao's words came out, everyone who was originally in shock were like ducks in the water, and were driven into the restaurant by Liu Mengchao.
Monokuma Owada's body has been cleared away by Monokuma, and the entire restaurant is still empty. After a whole night of searching, everyone is already feeling a little hungry.
"Eh..."
Hagakure Yasuhiro let out a long sigh, and Yamada Kazusan who was standing next to him also sighed. They had to sigh, because they didn't have the guts to pick up and eat the burgers placed on the table.
After all, who knows which burger contains deadly poison?
No one was sure, so everyone just sat upright on their chairs, then climbed down little by little, staring blankly at their desks, waiting for the school-level referee to arrive tomorrow.
"Liu Mengchao...why should everyone be prohibited from moving?"
Kirikiri Kyoko's voice rang directly in Liu Mengchao's ears. The place where Kirigiri Kyoko was originally sitting was not far from Liu Mengchao, but now it is even closer. Of course, this is not always the case for Maizono Sayaka.
What a good thing, the girl was bored and opened the "Girls Swimsuit Awards" on the desktop at the moment, covering her angry face.
"It's very simple, because this can minimize the murderer's ability to destroy evidence." Liu Mengchao said as he took out the photo of Togami Baiye from his pocket and opened it with a snap.
"Is this the second reason?" Kirikori Kyoko said with a smile.
Liu Mengchao nodded while flipping through the photos.
"That's true. If I find out anything from this photo, the real murderer doesn't have time to stage the scene, right?"
"But..." Kyoko Kirigiri said, looking at the photos in Liu Mengchao's camera. "Didn't we conduct searches in pairs before this? This is a flaw you deliberately exposed in order to let the criminals process the evidence.
?”
Liu Mengchao didn't answer, just smiled slightly and continued to look at the photos in the camera.
There aren't many photos in the camera. No, it's better to say there are very few photos than not many.
There are only three photos in total.
"Is this an art museum?" Kyoko Kirigiri tilted her head next to Liu Mengchao and said, "And there is no one in the photo. Why would Togami-kun leave such a photo?"
Liu Mengchao looked at the picture in the photo and curled his lips slightly. It wasn't that the pattern in the photo was too complicated and made people confused. On the contrary, it was so simple that people couldn't figure it out.
Liu Mengchao almost thought it was a photo used to test the performance of the camera.
Throughout the entire art gallery, pictures had been taken down from the walls and spread out on the ground. There were only two paintings standing quietly against the wall, depicting common Pacific scenery.
"What are you talking about?"
Liu Mengchao shook the picture slightly and continued to flip through the photos.
The second picture made Liu Mengchao even more dumbfounded.
Because the second photo is just a thick piece of paper. But there are words written on the paper that make Liu Mengchao completely confused.
"Shishen Group, second quarter financial report."
"Why did Ten Gods shine this thing into it?" Liu Mengchao thought as his fingers began to tap lightly on the table. Liu Mengchao knew that Monokuma once gave everyone a gift, and Ten Gods Baiye
The gift is exactly what is called the financial report of the Ten God Group.
Something strange...
Liu Mengchao couldn't find a clue for a while, so he went straight to the next page. The photo jumped again, jumping to the third one.
This time the scene is back to the art classroom.
"What exactly does Ten God want to say?"
When Liu Mengchao looked at the scene in the painting, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly subconsciously. Vaguely, Liu Mengchao seemed to feel that he had found the truth.
"The truth about victory?"
Liu Mengchao was thinking in his mind, and the snoring sounds around him began one after another. Looking around, Liu Mengchao found that only Zhan Rengui and Kirigiri Xiangzi were still asleep.
Nodding towards Zhan Rengui, Liu Mengchao picked up the "Girls Swimsuit Awards" that Sayaka Maizono was looking at just now, spread it out on the table, and then propped his head with one hand and started reading.
Unconsciously, a faint smile spread from the corners of Liu Mengchao's mouth.
"interesting."
Liu Mengchao raised his head, looked at the figure that had just entered his mind, and smiled.
——————————————————————————————————
"The time has come! The time has come! The time... has come! No one died today! No, no! Someone will die today!"
Early in the morning, the voice of Monokuma was heard in the restaurant. The round Monokuma kept jumping up and down on the radio, extremely excited and proud.
"It's now! The time is seven o'clock sharp! Please get ready, the school-level refereeing will begin in one hour!"
After saying that, there was only a soft crackling sound, and the figure of Monokuma disappeared from the broadcast screen.
"Have the school-level referees started..."
In the silent restaurant, I don't know who was the first to start muttering to himself. A strong sense of suffocation spread like a tide around everyone, from the top of the head to the soles of the feet.
Everything is enveloped in this invisible and intangible atmosphere.
"alright."
'Liu Mengchao stood up directly under the gaze of everyone. After a night's rest, Liu Mengchao's eyes seemed to be emitting endless light, making everyone who was caught by his gaze shudder.
"Now everyone, I beg you." Liu Mengchao said with a smile, his eyes scanning everyone's face, "Please carefully recall everything you experienced yesterday. Soon, we will solve all the mysteries, or
... "
With a grin on his face, Liu Mengchao laughed mockingly.
"They all died here."
After saying that, Liu Mengchao left everyone who was completely stunned and walked out of the restaurant.
"We are now..."
Everyone looked at each other, but no one wanted to stand up. They couldn't even lift their heads from the table. They just looked at each other listlessly, just as the other person looked at them listlessly.
Except for one person, Kyoko Kirigiri had already followed Liu Mengchao when he stood up. Sayaka Maizono, who was still shining with light in her eyes, had already sat down in disappointment and looked at her face to face without saying a word.
Ah, the desktop is empty.
"Liu Mengchao, where do you want to go?"
The sound of fog rang in Liu Mengchao's ears. Liu Mengchao just smiled and walked up the stairs to the third floor.
The third floor is a new area that was opened after Asahina Aoi's death. There is an activity room with a pool table, a medical room full of medicines, and an art gallery. These venues are all on the third floor.
As soon as Liu Mengchao stepped onto the steps to the third floor, he opened the electronic student handbook in his hand with a click.
"The time is now seven fifteen."
Liu Mengchao squinted his eyes slightly, looked at the path he came from, then smiled slightly and spoke to Kirigiri Xiangzi.
"Maybe I'm not a good detective."
Under Kirigiri Xiangzi's doubtful eyes, Liu Mengchao walked to the door of the medical room with a smile. He pushed open the door of the medical room and walked in.
"But I think...I'm not a fool."
As Liu Mengchao spoke, he checked the medicine room windows one after another, and then nodded to Kyoko Kirigiri who was standing behind him.
"It seems that there are no traces of movement...it seems that the medicine has not been taken out..." Kyoko Kirigiri stood behind Liu Mengchao and watched Liu Mengchao's movements carefully.
I saw Liu Mengchao taking a small medicine bottle from the display window. Then he walked out directly and walked towards the art gallery located in the deepest part.
Walking to the door, Liu Mengchao raised his hand and looked at the time.
Seven-twenty.
With a click, Liu Mengchao pushed the door open.
"here it is……"
Kyoko Kirigiri frowned slightly, not missing every possible inch. Her eyes swept over the paintings on the wall and passed by the sculpture standing in the center of the room.
At this moment, a flash of light suddenly sounded behind Kyoko Kirigiri.
"Crack!"
A soft sound.
Looking back, Liu Mengchao was holding a camera in his hand and waved to Kyoko Kirigiri. Then Liu Mengchao took out the electronic student handbook in his hand again, looked at the time displayed on it, and smiled slightly.
"The time is now seven-thirty."
With that said, Liu Mengchao walked out of the art classroom without looking back and walked directly towards the first floor. However, Kyoko Kirigiri noticed that Liu Mengchao seemed to be walking very slowly.
This made Liu Mengchao walk on the road that originally only took ten minutes for nearly twenty minutes, and then when Liu Mengchao stopped.
"Is this the women's locker room?"
Kyoko Kirigiri said subconsciously.
"Please."
Liu Mengchao made a gesture of invitation and stepped aside.
When the door opened, Liu Mengchao tapped the door of the women's locker room with his foot and walked directly in. Liu Mengchao seemed to be wandering aimlessly in the women's locker room, standing in front of the locker from time to time.
To be continued...
