Chapter 39 Blocking the scene
Not long ago.
Suzuki Sonoko could feel that the man she was destined to have finally arrived——
Although this eldest lady thinks so every time, and the results are not very good every time, it is obvious that these setbacks have not made her lose the illusion of true love.
In this way, with the expectation of a beautiful relationship, Suzuki Sonoko walked lightly to the edge of the underground platform.
On the wall next to the platform is a wide door with a "restroom" sign hanging on the top. After entering the wide door, there is a horizontal aisle. The men's restroom and the women's restroom are connected at the left and right ends of the aisle.
As soon as Suzuki Sonoko arrived here, she saw a sign clearly erected in front of the wide open door:
"The bathroom equipment is under repair, please do not use it."
Apparently, this bathroom is now out of business.
Because of this, the platform outside was noisy and noisy, but the bathroom inside was still empty and seemed unusually quiet.
But Suzuki Sonoko thought about it and finally walked in:
Anyway, she just came to use the bathroom mirror to put on makeup.
Even if the sanitary equipment inside was damaged, it would not have any impact on her.
"The handsome guy I met this time is a good man that even Xiaolan praised. I must put on a beautiful makeup to win him down in one fell swoop!"
"Wait until he falls under the charm of this lady and can't help but confess to me, oh ho ho ho"
Suzuki Sonoko didn't have the reserve of a young lady at all. Instead, she smiled like a gray wolf who was carefully planning a plan to catch a sheep.
Just like this, while thinking about the tricks she was going to use to seduce men, she walked into the wide door, stepped onto the short corridor, and walked towards the women's restroom on the right side of the corridor.
The door to the women's restroom was closed and it was quiet inside.
Suzuki Sonoko opened the door, took two steps inside, and then
"Blood?!"
As soon as she came in, she saw blood spread on the ground in front of the sink.
And in the pool of blood, a fashionably dressed woman was lying there motionless.
The clothes on her chest were stained red with blood, her eyes were wide and round, and the pain she felt during her lifetime was still solidified in her colorless pupils.
Suzuki Sonoko instinctively wanted to scream.
But at this moment, a "black shadow" suddenly flashed out from the corner behind the door that she had not noticed at all.
Yuanzi heard the sudden sound of footsteps behind him, but it was already a little late.
There was no time to turn around, no way to escape, and I didn't even scream.
The black shadow quickly struck out with a knife, hitting Suzuki Sonoko hard on the back of the neck.
Suzuki Sonoko covered her neck in pain, her head became dizzy, and she fell to the ground swaying.
When the black figure saw that Yuanzi seemed to be knocked unconscious by his blow, he ignored her.
He turned around hurriedly, opened the door to the women's bathroom, and hurried out.
"It hurts so much."
Sonoko quietly opened her eyes in pain.
In fact, she was not knocked unconscious by the knife blow just now, but she was afraid that the other party would jump over the wall and commit murder, so she acted out of desperation and pretended to be fainted on purpose.
Now, when she heard the guy's footsteps hurried away, she dared to tentatively open her eyes a crack.
But it was a little late for Yuanzi to open his eyes at this time.
The assailant had already run out of the bathroom, and she could only vaguely see a shadow that disappeared from the door.
"hateful"
"Is he a murderer?"
Suzuki Sonoko covered her neck and staggered to her feet.
She looked at the body slumped in a pool of blood behind her, and instinctive fear appeared on her face.
But even so, she still mustered up the courage to turn her head and look in the direction where the murderer had just disappeared.
"The murderer didn't run away for long."
"And there are so many people on the platform outside, and Xiaolan is there too."
"If I call someone now, I might be able to stop the murderer."
Thinking of this, regardless of the fact that the murderer hadn't run far yet, Suzuki Sonoko shouted at the top of her voice:
"Help, kill, kill!!"
There is only a wall and an aisle between the restroom and the platform.
Suzuki Sonoko's scream soon spread loudly and echoed on the underground tram platform.
"Killed?!"
The waiting passengers looked at each other, and the noisy platform suddenly became quiet.
Everyone stopped talking and turned their attention to the bathroom where the screams came from.
And in everyone's sight, Suzuki Sonoko clutched her neck tightly and walked out in a hurry:
"There's a body in the bathroom!"
"Besides, the murderer just ran out of here!"
"What?"
Passengers waiting for the train were shocked by the shocking news:
"Someone died in the bathroom?"
"And the murderer just ran out? Then, doesn't that mean?"
"That guy is still here?"
Some smart-minded passengers waiting for the train have already understood what Suzuki Sonoko wanted to express.
They immediately looked at the strangers standing around them suspiciously, as if everyone around them looked like a brutal murderer who had just killed someone.
Kudo Shinichi's reaction was faster than those waiting passengers.
His eyes swept over the surroundings one by one, and the spatial structure of the underground platform quickly emerged in his mind:
"There is only one employee passage, one escalator, and stairs built together with the escalator."
"The next tram hasn't arrived yet, and the employee passage is locked. So now the only ones that can leave the platform are the elevator and the stairs."
Thinking of this, Kudo Shinichi quickly said to Mao Lilan and Lin Shinichi beside him:
"Xiaolan, Mr. Lin Xinyi, let's quickly block the stairs."
"As long as we block that place in time, we should be able to block the murderer who didn't have time to leave on this platform!"
"clear!"
Mao Lilan reacted quickly.
"Well" Lin Xinyi, an adult, didn't react as quickly as the little girl.
After all, Mao Lilan was not even shocked when a murder suddenly happened in front of her.
As soon as Kudo spoke, she immediately helped seal the scene.
A female high school student behaves more skillfully than a police officer from the Metropolitan Police Department.
How should I put it? Nothing but familiarity with you?
At this moment, Lin Xinyi finally began to believe the metaphysical setting he just heard.
He calmly stood a little further away from Kudo, who was the "Tiansha Lone Star", then followed Xiaolan and quickly blocked the only staircase that could leave the platform and lead to the upper floor.
"Wait, we can't leave now."
Lin Xinyi stood up and stopped in front of several passengers who were about to go up the stairs to leave.
"Why?" The passengers suddenly had an opinion: "Why don't you let us leave?"
"There has been a murder here, and the scene must be cordoned off now."
Lin Xinyi said as calmly as possible.
"None of my business!"
The impulsive passenger glared over with dissatisfaction:
"I'm not a murderer, and I didn't kill anyone."
"Why are you stopping me?"
"Yes!" Several passengers who were about to leave agreed: "What does the dead have to do with us? When will not everyone die in Mihua Town?"
"Please try your best to understand."
"After all, no one knows if the murderer is among you now."
Lin Xinyi's tone was still so calm and gentle.
But unfortunately, his restraint did not win the understanding of the passengers.
They did not feel obligated to cooperate with the investigation, but were unhappy that their schedule was delayed:
"Hey, everyone is in a hurry, okay?"
"If we are blocked here and wait for the police to come to investigate, who knows how much time will be wasted!"
"If we can't find out, will we be locked up forever?"
"Think about it, why would you waste so many lives for a dead person you don't even know?"
The passengers shouted even louder:
"Get out of the way, we're going up the stairs!"
"Yes, get out of the way!"
"You are not the police, why are you meddling in other people's business?"
Lin Xinyi frowned tightly.
He thought about it for a moment, and without wasting any more words, he turned back to Xiaolan and said:
"Miss Mao Lilan, please perform the trick you did yesterday."
"Which move?" Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, and then she understood Lin Xinyi's intention belatedly.
So, she calmed down, stood firm, gathered strength, and punched the wall on the side.
boom!
A muffled sound like a drum.
The hard wall suddenly dented by more than an inch, and spider web-shaped cracks spread rapidly from the pit.
It wasn't until Mao Lilan slowly retracted his fist to his waist that the gravel and rubble finally fell from the wall.
""
Those passengers who insisted on leaving in a hurry kept their mouths shut.
In the silence, the ideological awareness of the people at the scene increased rapidly, and their attitude towards cooperating with the investigation became much more positive.
