Chapter 5 The Hidden Secret
"Don't move, I found that thing."
Lisa, who was squatting beside her husband's body, protected some of the small parts she had just found from, and isolated Osari's hands from it.
But this neighbor, who looked very fierce, ignored Lisa's body and grabbed the things he thought were useful from it. After checking it in his hand, he showed a satisfied smile on his face.
"You said it's yours? In this situation, even a fool can understand that the more clues you find, the truth will be able to survive. Who cares about what you do in your daily life? You must know that no one will be lenient in the face of death."
Yes, no one will be lenient in the face of death.
No matter how good a good person treats others on weekdays, he will never remember his previous kindness under the coercion of desperate desperation.
Kevin straightened his body, stretched his body, and soon showed a cautious and serious expression on his face.
At that moment, he decided his goal to move forward, which was to look for clues at the home of Osali, the most suspected of among the three suspects.
The moment Kevin lifted his foot away, a black cat emerged from the grass on one side. She walked lightly to the referee's side, with a pair of lively vertical pupils staring at the back that had left the scene, licking her front paws.
It seemed that he had already noticed it. After lowering his head and looking at the uninvited guest, the black cat immediately walked lightly in the direction where Kevin left.
The reason he started from Osali's home is that from the perspective of the public, he was indeed the most suspicious, especially at the moment when Mr. Ai was suddenly executed, even he felt a little disgusted and nauseous. Lisa also looked overly panicked, but his expression was extremely calm.
At that moment, Kevin almost impulsively reported the situation to the chief referee just like Lisa before.
However, this is just one-sided information he observed. No matter how useful it is, it cannot directly lead to final death.
After all, the referee, the man in a black robe, had said before that direct evidence must be found, otherwise he would be sentenced to death.
Kevin smiled bitterly, now he is really dancing with death.
After self-deprecating, Kevin went straight to the most familiar place in his memory.
It was originally the most dazzling noon, but at this moment, there was a black cloud above this villa area, covering all the light. At this time, the villa area was more like a cemetery in the middle of the night, which was trembling.
The villa area used to decorate the grass and trees on the ink-black ground reflect one pale spot after another.
The twisted and weird trees stand one by one, revealing the wet marks of the rain, reflecting dim lights.
The quiet and uninhabited road quietly flows out a smell of loneliness.
The flames protected by the lampshade flickered and dark under the cold wind, and from time to time, faint and strange light flashed out, sometimes white, sometimes dim, sometimes... but always dull and matte.
The rain gradually worsened, and the wet and cold wind gradually spread out from the road, wrapping away with lonely and coldness without mercy. Only a small amount of body temperature remained.
Because of Lai's death, all residents in the entire villa area have been basically evacuated.
Kevin patted the manor gate on his right hand, which had been locked by a giant lock. Kevin had never seen this lock before, and the color and shape of the iron lock did not belong here, it was obviously from outside.
The crowd was evacuated and outsiders locked the entire manor gate, which means they have been here.
But why, this incident was handed over to the cold-blooded guys in the [Judgement Space], rather than asking the forensic doctor to handle it according to the regular procedures.
Kevin couldn't figure this out anyway, and of course, he didn't have the heart to think about it now.
After taking a deep breath, he pushed open the door of Osali's house.
Kevin has been here, but he didn't have many times. I only remember that his family is no different from ordinary residents.
But when he suddenly broke in today, Osali's house seemed to have more items that he had never seen normally.
"Meow."
The subtle cat meow seemed particularly harsh in the quiet and weird room. A living creature with black fur rose up and jumped to the windowsill, carefully licking her front paws, but from time to time glanced at Kevin, her purpose was revealed.
Fortunately, Kevin was immersed in thinking and did not notice her quiet arrival.
In front of Kevin was a dining table, with the unfinished breakfast of Osali's family on the table, which was enough to see that they first came to the [Judgement Space] in the morning.
But this is not the most important thing, and the most important thing is that Kevin found a piece of parchment under the plate.
On the velvet paper, "Petere relinquo" is written in scribbled handwriting. Kevin knew that this is the most commonly used international language in this context, Latin, and these arranged words are literally translated as "take leave".
Ask for leave.
Osali's work has almost no rest days.
Why did he ask for leave today?
Continue searching at Osari's home, searching for all the clues he could find.
Finally, in the Osaris' bedroom, Kevin found a stack of parchment paper, which was almost the same as what he was holding in his hand.
The text above is basically the same color as "Petere relinquo". Why did Osari take leave?
Let’s look at the dates in the lower right corner of the parchment paper. Through simple addition and subtraction calculations, you can also calculate that the dates between these parchments are seven days.
Seven days are considered a cycle.
What is today?
Kevin thought about it in his heart and finally realized something was wrong.
As if he had thought of something, Kevin put all the parchment paper in his pocket and continued to search for all the items placed in the room like a robber. It was not until he saw a small black object that his tight face turned into a confident smile.
He already knew what Osali took leave to go out, and Kevin had already learned something about him.
After putting the objects in his pocket, Kevin left Osali's house. All he needed to know now was this clue, and nothing else was important.
Interesting, really interesting.
Unexpectedly, my neighbor who had been with me for several years still had this secret hidden.
But the most important question now is why he hides it?
Kevin shook his head on his own.
Walking alone in the rain, the rain slid down his cheeks, and he was going back now, to where Lai died.
He had already foreseen that the real good show was about to begin.
