Chapter 32: Reasoning does not need to be rigorous, it is enough to have a conclusion

If you use the investigation method, it is afraid that it will be difficult to produce results.

The information is limited, and we don’t even know what specific symptoms will occur after being taken over by a puppet master. If we just hold a symposium and discuss the truth, it is as unrealistic as local cadres who can find work experience when they go abroad for inspection.

"However, no result is also a result in itself."

After hearing what I said, Watson, the short-haired assistant, shook all over: "You, you won't say again, killing everyone will solve the problem, right?"

Oh, you are becoming more and more considerate of Watson. No wonder Sherlock Holmes is willing to play a gang with Watson. It’s not that there is no reason.

But this time, besides this idea, I thought of something else.

"You guys tell me, why did that puppet master suddenly take over Zhao Kui's mistress when I entered the building and raided me?"

Kogoro Mouri intercepted: "Didn't you say that it was to create an illusion?"

So, why doesn’t he possess you? Anyway, the effect is the same, because you have the blessing of Amaterasu? Or are your appearances different, which makes him pity for the beauty?

Of course, it is also possible that the puppet master simply randomly selects the victims, which makes no sense, but I intuitively think this is a clue. If you dig deeper, there may be unexpected results.

For example, maybe the puppet master is trying to kill someone to silence him?

Thinking of this, I turned to ask Jiang Xueqi: "Are there any experts here who are proficient in psychology?"

The woman glanced at me: "What? Detective Sherlock Holmes has become a mentally ill and needs training?"

Haha, I'm so brave, I dare to slander Sherlock Holmes. Do you want me to use my pipe to blow your chrysanthemum?

During the dispute, a young man wearing glasses suddenly spoke to the Red Army of the Guards: "I can search the other party's memory with the cooperation of the target person. It can be considered as proficient in psychology. Is there any problem?"

"Is your ability to keep it confidential?"

The man shrugged: "You can imagine it if I tell you so easily."

OK, I understand. From this point of view, the reason why the puppet master took over the mistress was very clear.

Kill someone to silence!

That woman must have known some secret... This is nonsense, but I might as well make a guess when it comes to such radical means of the puppet master: that secret is very related to the puppet master.

What would it be?

The puppet master suffers from STD? Humanely, no, that guy is simply taking over the body to survive, and the STD does not transfer with his body... Then...

"Watson, Maori, do you have any ideas?"

The two of them shook their heads very neatly.

Well, you know how to do your assistant's duty - keep showing a confused and anxious look. But at this time, I need you to activate your imagination or activate your woman's intuition, and you don't need your opinions to be accurate, and you can provide some inspiration.

This time, Kogoro Mouri, who was evaluated as slightly inferior in IQ, suddenly had an inspiration: "Can he be the identity of a puppet master? Although a puppet master often takes away his body, he should also have his own body, right? If..."

Before I finished speaking, my mind flashed through my mind and I had guessed the answer. Indeed... it was an extremely unexpected answer.

Maori, you have really made contributions this time. I held the hand of my long-haired assistant tightly and said to her: "From now on, I will promote you to Watson, and Hara Watson will retreat to the second line and become Kogoro Mouri."

"Ah!?" Hara Watson, the current Maori Kogoro whined unwillingly.

Tsk, who made you not have such a major meritorious performance? Leadership promotion does not depend on your usual achievements.

At this time, Jiang Xueqi's voice came from behind: "What did you guess? Can you tell me?"

... Compared to when we first met, why are you so shameless now? However, it is indeed a little pleasing to you.

Although I don’t really want to tell this woman, the answer I guess is that the more people know, the better.

"It's actually very simple... I've guessed the true identity of the puppet master."

Jiang Xueqi raised her eyebrows, obviously a little surprised, but pretended to be disdainful: "Who is it?"

... With your attitude, my answer is only three words.

"It's your father!"

"you!……"

At this time, the others rushed to persuade the fight, pulled away the angry Jiang Xueqi, and then surrounded me and asked who the identity of the puppet master was.

Actually, it's very simple to say, I should have suspected it long ago...

"Zhao Kui."

"The true identity of the puppet master is Zhao Kui, the target person of everyone who visited Anling. Those who have fought with him should know his characteristics, right? He is elusive and ever-changing, and then... he always holds magic weapons and weapons. Although the Zhao family is backed by the New Territories Gate and has a lot of contact with Sakurajima merchants, the New Territories God Soldier is the New Territories God Soldier. There is no reason to be a standard and mass-produced. Those who can squander so much... Zhao Kui, who is responsible for the New Territories God Soldier, is the biggest suspect! It's just that Zhao Kui successfully plays an ordinary human on weekdays and hides everyone's sight. In fact, who would be in charge of the New Territories God Soldiers with confidence to give it to ordinary people? This is different from running a business. What kind of talent is needed. Only if one is strong enough, is the king."

"Of course, it is not ruled out that the possibility of the puppet master and Zhao Kui being closely related, but it is obvious that the possibility of the two being one person is higher and more reasonable."

So the conclusion is very simple. The puppet master is Zhao Kui. The reason why he killed his mistress was that he did not want us to get information about him from his mistress. Perhaps the mistress herself did not think that what she knew was important, but in the eyes of experts, a little clue could be worth a thousand gold, and the puppet master was unwilling to take risks.

After saying this, there were fragments of applause from all around him. Then, Jiang Xueqi nodded and said, "It's a wonderful reasoning, but can you tell me, how can this conclusion help the current situation?"

...You dare to deny the great achievements of Detective Sherlock Holmes!?

Jiang Xueqi smiled leisurely: "I don't deny your reasoning. If you change the time and place, your conclusion will undoubtedly be of great help to our actions. We can summarize and summarize more information by comparing the information of Zhao Kui and the puppet master, so as to gain the upper hand in future actions. But now we are trapped in the Emerald Dream and can't even go out. What's the point of caring about this information?"

Oh, you short-sighted woman, you are really an illegitimate child. My important conclusion is about to come out, but you gave me this trick? Is it a trick?

Then I won't say it anymore, it's not good news anyway.

I turned around and called two assistants: "Let's go, let's go out for a walk."

The two assistants looked back at the people in the office and finally walked out of the room with me.

After leaving the room, my conclusions don't need to be hidden.

"Things are not great. According to my reasoning, the puppet master's ability to seize the body is likely to have a lurking form... That is to say, although he cannot control multiple people at the same time, he can leave something like seeds and marks on multiple people. Then, between these marks, freely switch hosts, and can be replaced at any time! What supports my idea is a simple timeline problem. Just this morning, I fought with the puppet master in Yanbei City. Later, Lu Wei, Jiang Xueqi, and the Red Army of the Guards encountered the puppet master one after another! However, in Anling City in the afternoon, I heard the news that Zhao Kui transferred his family to an underground shelter! A large part of the timeline overlapped!"

"So, the conclusion is either because my inference is wrong. Zhao Kui and the puppet master are not the same person, or it is the relationship between the puppet master and Zhao Kui. As I said just now, it is the relationship between the marker and the parasite. Zhao Kui himself has a self-awareness, but may be replaced by the puppet master at any time - such a dead man is not uncommon in the big family. The puppet master usually lives in Zhao Kui's body and only plant marks on other people. When needed, he can grow, seize the body, and be elusive at any time. In this way, it can explain why the timelines of Zhao Kui and the puppet master overlap... Such reasoning is not an exaggeration, right?"

The two assistants nodded in support.

"So, the next question is, is it feasible if this guy just planted a mark on someone among us without taking over the body? The restriction of the Emerald Dream is that the operator is in it, so can the mark of the puppet master be considered as the puppet master himself without taking over the body? If so, there is no need to spend time looking for any puppet now, and it is impossible to find it."

After listening to my inference, the current Watson, the long-haired assistant nodded slightly: "It seems that it makes sense..."

But Kogoro Mori, who has short hair, said: "Your inference is too many assumptions, it's very unrigorous..."

In this situation, you are a metaphysicist who pursues rigor and you, a metaphysicist who worships classical philosophy, may as well listen to it.

"Uh...then accept your point of view. But if your inference is correct, wouldn't it mean that we are at all helpless about the puppet master now?"

Helpless? That won't be, at least I have a little idea.

Although it may not work, you might as well give it a try... I slowly closed my eyes, and then my mental power was fully activated, and the perception domain overclocking mode was turned on for me!

The last time was only one moment, but the impact of that moment was enough to make me dizzy. When the end of my nose was hot, I stretched out my hand and wiped it, it was full of bright red blood.

However, this small price, compared to the harvest, is not worth mentioning at all, what I want...

Already seen.

And that result was indeed beyond my expectations.

First, I actually saw the mark made by the puppet master. Although the mark was almost tiny in the perception domain, I did see its existence. At that moment, the sensitivity of my perception domain was twice as high as I expected!

Second, the number of markers is two, not one, one of which roughly matches my guess, and the position of the other almost shocked me! Puppet Master, you are so big, you dare to set the marker point in this position! It is indeed very deceptive, but...

It's like when playing a fighting game, using provocation to your opponent looks very handsome and gorgeous, but once you get a big move, it's very stupid and 2B. The puppet master should be gambled that we can't catch him. Unfortunately, the power of detective Sherlock Holmes is endless. Before guessing the truth, he played this hand beautifully, but unfortunately now...

It's your turn 2B.

I closed my eyes and recalled what I felt just now. After confirming the target position, I nodded and said to myself: Come on, I have wasted enough time here. It’s time to break the deadlock.

The steps should be fast. I just now had no way to know if the puppet master had noticed it. If he was asked to divert his target, I would have had so much nosebleed in vain.

The way to break the deadlock is very simple.

I first found Lu Wei. The teleportation imitating Huang Xiaoyue brought him a lot of damage. It has not recovered until now. I am still lying on the sofa and humming desperately. When I saw me coming in, I turned my head slightly and said, "Is it here to execute me again this time?"

I said, "Congratulations, Crow's Mouth."

Then I stepped forward and pierced his heart. My fingers clamped a granulum on the surface of my heart, and pulled it out of my chest with the gushing blood.

Then, he turned around and kicked Lu Wei out of the room. Outside the room, Jiang Xueqi was still awake. It is said that there was no injury that could not be saved in her hand. Then, Lu Wei's heart was just ruptured and he shouldn't have died.

And I, with the recoil force, crashed straight into the wall of the house!

The moment I touched the cold concrete wall, I felt the granulation between my fingers begin to tremble violently, and at the same time, there was a tremor on my back.

Puppet Master, are you afraid?

Hahaha, don’t be afraid, on the road to the underworld, I will accompany you to see the scenery, hahahaha!
