Chapter 518 Horror Movie (2-in-1)

Chapter 518 Horror Movie (2-in-1)

Time returns to the present.

In front of Naoko Kuroe's house.

"Ms. Shimabukuro, I'm not here to stop you, but to assist you."

"Because I, like you, want justice to be done."

In the complicated and unspeakable eyes of Shimabukuro Kime, Lin Xinyi said firmly.

"justice."

Shimabukuro Kimie whispered this unfamiliar word softly and couldn't help falling into silence.

And she was vaguely aware of something.

Shimabukuro Kimie sighed softly and took off his disguise with relief:

"Mr. Lin, you"

"Sure enough, we all know."

"That's right." Lin Xin nodded: "Miss Shimabukuro, we have discovered the truth."

"The truth is:"

"You didn't kill anyone at all, and you didn't even think about killing anyone."

"The 'corpses' in those death photos were actually disguised by you, and the real Saori Kadowaki and Hisumi Ebihara should still be alive in this world at this time."

Shimabukuro Kimie has said that she is his biggest fan.

Since she is familiar with Lin Xinyi's thoughts and theories in the field of criminal investigation, she should understand:

To achieve the so-called "perfect crime", the focus is not on how to create an alibi for oneself, but on how to erase one's own traces as much as possible.

No matter how strong the alibi is, it will always be fake, and there is always the risk of being exposed by smart people.

But when the trace disappears, it disappears.

No matter how smart the investigators are, they are unable to make a living without straw, and there is no evidence to convict the murderer.

Based on this idea, a discerning person can quickly discover that the conditions for committing crimes on this American island are really "unique":

There are deep mountains on the island, and there is the sea outside the island. Between these vast mountains and seas, where can't an unknown body be buried?

There is no case without a body. If the body cannot be found, the police can only treat the victim as a missing person.

With the working attitude of the Japanese police in this science-based world

If he's missing, he's missing. Maybe he just ran away from home.

With so many people running away from home every year, how can they find the time to look for them one by one?

It is estimated that no one will investigate at all.

As time went by, this matter was forgotten.

According to Hayashi Shinichi's idea, if he were Shimabukuro Kime, the murderous revenge method could be planned simpler and more reliable.

All he had to do was find a reason to go out to sea with Kadowaki Saori and others, then sink the boat at sea and throw away the body. When he came back, he would say that he had encountered an accident at sea, and he was the only one who was lucky enough to survive.

Even ten Kudo Shinichis wouldn't be able to use this method of killing.

The same goes for ten Lin Xinyi.

Because no one can falsify the so-called "accident" when all the evidence is covered by the sea.

Not to mention that in the eyes of outsiders, Shimabukuro Kimie and the three enemies were still close friends who had grown up together as sisters. They had no grievances in the past and no enmity these days.

How could anyone suspect her of murder? Do you think this is not an accident?

In this way, the family members of the deceased will probably not call the police. If no one even calls the police, the so-called perfect crime will be realized.

In short

From Shimabukuro Kimie's perspective, there are too many "perfect" techniques to choose from.

And she was so familiar with Lin Xinyi's thoughts and theories that she was not so stupid that she couldn't even figure out these joints.

But she chose an extremely unusual method:

Kill someone and take the initiative to leave photos of their death.

It's like provoking the police.

Some criminals do have a morbid desire for expression that is difficult for ordinary people to understand, and will actively show their "criminal achievements" to the world.

For example, the famous Jack the Ripper once sent provocative letters similar to "criminal warning letters" to the police station.

Lin Xinyi initially thought that the murderer took the initiative to leave photos of his death after committing the crime because of this mentality.

But he later discovered that these photos were fake and had added special effects.

The corpses in the photos were all played by Shimabukuro Kimie himself.

There is no such thing as "displaying criminal achievements".

Then Shimabukuro Kimie’s motives and psychology deserve further careful analysis:

Since she was not deliberately provoking the police out of a sick mentality.

And he also knew that doing so would only attract great attention from the police and lead to a rigorous investigation that could have been completely avoided.

So why did she go to such trouble to leave fake photos of her death?

After much deliberation, there is only one answer:

"The average murderer just wants no one to know that the victim has been killed, but you did the exact opposite."

"You just want everyone on the island, especially Kuroe Naoko, who was chosen by you, to know that Kadowaki Saori and Ebihara Hisumi are 'dead', and that the legendary mermaid has begun to appear to take revenge on mankind."

"You are deliberately creating an atmosphere of terror on the island by sending photos of death."

"That's why the death state of the deceased in the photo is so bloody and bizarre, like a heavy-duty horror movie."

"Because only in this way can you continue to deepen the fear in Kuroe Naoko's heart, break this superstitious woman's already fragile psychological defense, and achieve your ultimate goal-"

Lin Xinyi paused for a moment and said solemnly:

"Let Naoko Kuroe confess her guilt!"

"You want to use the power of ghosts and gods to gain reflection and repentance from your enemies!"

As he spoke, he walked forward slowly, pointed at the tool bag carried by Shimabukuro Kime and said:

"Miss Shimabukuro, if I guess correctly:"

"Kadowaki Saori and Ebihara Hisumi, they were just hidden by you and have not been killed yet."

"What you carry in your bag is not a murder weapon at all, but a cosmetic prop used to act as a bluff, to act like the 'Mermaid' in front of Heijiang."

"Right?

"I" Shimabukuro Kime was speechless for a moment.

Finally, she sighed softly and slowly opened the zipper of the tool bag:

As expected, the bag contained no murder weapon.

But clothes, wigs, fake blood, these costume props used to "pretend to be gods and ghosts".

She is not here to kill, but to act and scare Naoko Kuroe.

"That's right." Shimabukuro Kimie didn't hide it anymore.

Facing Lin Xinyi, who seemed to have understood everything, she could only choose to be calm:

"Those death photos were all faked by me."

"Kadowaki Saori and Ebihara Hisumi are both still alive."

"And I didn't come here today to kill people, but to perform the last scene again——"

"I want to use this scene to scare Naoko Kuroe into surrendering to the police and make her confess her crimes three years ago."

Shimabukuro Kimie told her all about her plan.

She didn't kill anyone at all, and she wasn't a murderer.

Everything she did was just to let the three murderers get the punishment they deserve, and to seek delayed justice for her mother who died tragically.

This time Ke Xue's Law really failed.

Soul Society's ambassador to Tokyo and ambassador to Osaka, the two acting Shinigami together did not take away a single soul.

Well. If you don’t count Shimabukuro Kimie’s mother who died tragically three years ago.

"Mr. Lin, thank you for this."

"It's your deeds that gave me confidence again - especially the Moon Shadow Island case I talked to you about before."

"It was you who made me finally begin to believe that justice may only be late, not permanently absent."

"So I made an effort."

"I have come all the way to this point, and there is only one last step left."

As he spoke, Shimabukuro Kime looked at the brightly lit Kuroe family in front of him:

This drama is coming to an end.

From Kadowaki Saori to Ebihara Hisumi, the tragic deaths of the two "accomplices" have pushed the fear in Kuroe Naoko's heart to the extreme.

At the same time, in her dual capacity as a shrine maiden and a longevity mother-in-law, she privately instilled many horror stories into Naoko Kuroe.

The next step is to completely break through the opponent's psychological defense.

As for whether the goal can be achieved in the end, it depends on the performance of this last scene.

When she saw Lin Shinichi and others descending from the sky to stop him, Shimabukuro Kimie was worried that the scene might not go on.

But he didn't expect that Lin Xinyi had already understood everything.

Not only was he not here to arrest her, he even offered to assist her in her plan.

"So, Mr. Lin."

Shimabukuro Kime asked again expectantly:

"You said you wanted to help me, but what exactly are you going to do?"

"It's very simple." Lin Xinyi smiled easily: "Just use your method."

"This" Shimabukuro June was a little helpless: "Then why do you stop me here, Mr. Lin?"

"After I finish this scene, wouldn't it be better to show up and confront him again?"

Although she admired Lin Xinyi, she didn't think that manager Lin had any achievements in the field of acting.

Now her carefully prepared drama is about to begin.

Lin Xinyi, an outsider, suddenly intervened like a traffic star who brought money to join the group.

Between the words, it seems that he wants to take a dominant position in this drama.

Doesn't this ruin the show?

This was her last ditch effort to seek justice for her mother.

Shimabukuro Kimie didn't want anything to go wrong in this scene.

"Do not worry!"

"I called these police officers and elders here not to witness the performance accident."

Lin Xinyi confidently said:

"Miss Shimabukuro, you don't have to do anything, just watch us perform."

"Our actors are definitely more professional than you."

Shimabukuro Kimie actually had some objections.

She was not comfortable leaving this final performance of revenge for her mother in the hands of a stranger she had only known for a day.

Even if the other person is her idol, she can't rest assured.

But Lin Xinyi could not help but seize the lead in this drama, and turned to the two students beside him and said:

"Get ready, you can start."

"Heiji, you are the steward this time, please wait and let everyone hide better."

"Ms. Ye, you are responsible for recording and filming, and you must not make any mistakes!"

Hattori Heiji nodded solemnly.

Yuan Shan and Ye also took out the camera from their bag as they were prepared.

We already have stage managers and photographers, but all we need is a good show.

Even if Shimabukuro Kime wanted to object, it was too late.

Lin Xinyi, who was transferred from medical examiner Lin to director Lin, now acted as an actor again and walked straight to the door of Heijiang's house.

The miko lady had no choice but to accept the fact that she was reduced from the starring role to the audience.

Seeing that Lin Xinyi was about to walk to the door of Kuroe's house, Kuroe Naoko who was hiding inside might be alerted at any time.

Shimabukuro Kimie had no choice but to hide in a dark place where the light could not reach, together with Hattori Heiji, Toyama Kazuha and others.

Then, under the gaze of the camera and these viewers

The drama finally begins.

The first thing Lin Xin did at the beginning was to knock on the door of Heijiang's house:

Bang bang bang.

"Miss Heijiang, Miss Heijiang?"

"Are you at home?"

Lin Xinyi shouted towards the door with a slightly anxious tone.

"This" Shimabukuro June was stunned when he saw it:

Why did he just knock on the door and shout?

The other party already recognized the voice of an acquaintance, so how could he pretend to be a ghost and scare others?

Lin Xinyi had not put on makeup or changed clothes.

Wearing a tall and stylish black suit, he paired it with his handsome face that wouldn't look out of place even on a celebrity poster.

Imagine that at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, you are a single woman hiding alone at home, too scared to even turn off the lights when sleeping.

At this time, Wu Yanzu suddenly knocked on the door.

Such horror.

this.

How scary is this? !

What's more, the person who came was an acquaintance.

Not even suspicious.

How could this scare Naoko Kuroe into breaking through her last psychological defense?

Could it be that Lin Xinyi wanted to directly have a long talk and in-depth exchange with Kuroe Naoko as a "master" to persuade her to surrender and atone for her sins to the mermaid?

This doesn't work.

Because Shimabukuro Kimie has already tried it as a longevity mother-in-law.

If Naoko Kuroe was someone who could be persuaded to repent and plead guilty in just a few words, then she wouldn't have designed this revenge drama to be so complicated.

"What exactly does Mr. Lin want to do?!"

I just looked at the beginning and saw that my carefully planned work was changed like this.

Shimabukuro Kimie in the "auditorium" was so angry that she was about to have a cerebral hemorrhage.

Sure enough, a layman is a layman.

No matter how handsome a person is, if he doesn't know how to act, he can only perform garbage.

But it's too late to say anything now. Lin Xinyi has already snatched the director and starring positions from her, and started acting directly in his own way.

He knocked on Heijiang's door openly.

She even shouted Naoko Kuroe's name loudly.

It doesn't look like it's meant to scare people at all.

Instead, he seemed to be visiting.

Then a slightly trembling, yet reassuring voice soon came from the door:

"Is it Master Lin?"

"Yes, it's me."

Lin Xinyi replied loudly again:

"Miss Heijiang, please come to the yard."

"I have something to tell you."

"good!"

Master Lin's words are still very useful.

Not only did Kuroe Naoko not feel scared, but she also regarded Lin Shinichi who came to her door in the middle of the night as a life-saving straw:

"Master Lin, you, are you here to save me?"

As she said this, she hurriedly opened the door and stuck her head out:

At first glance, it turned out to be Master Lin.

He was standing before her alive in her yard.

The light in the house shined from the door and window, not only illuminating the courtyard very brightly, but also illuminating Lin Xinyi's face very clearly.

That handsome face is undoubtedly revealed, and it makes people feel at ease just looking at it.

How could any ghost look like this?

"Master Lin!"

Kuroe Naoko suddenly breathed a sigh of relief:

"It's really you, Master Lin."

"That's right." Lin Xinyi's tone suddenly became extremely strange: "I am Lin Xinyi."

"Otherwise, what do you think?"

"Who else could I be?"

Kuroe Naoko: "???"

"This" Miss Shimabukuro, who was hiding in the dark, was completely confused:

What is this doing?

Just lower your voice and say a few words, just to pretend to be a ghost and scare people?

Isn't Mr. Lin's acting too stupid?

What nonsense!

Seeing that the revenge drama that he had carefully planned was about to be completely ruined by this third-rate actor who had no real appearance.

Shimabukuro Kimie almost lost her fandom on the spot, and even secretly cursed the man who was once her idol.

But what she didn't expect was...

Lin Xinyi can actually come up with an even stupider performance.

"Miss Heijiang."

Lin Xinyi suddenly smiled evilly at Naoko Kuroe in front of him.

Then he pointed at his face and asked ambiguously:

"Do you think I look good?"

Kuroe Naoko: "???"

She rubbed her eyes carefully to make sure this was not an illusion.

The Master Lin in front of him was indeed Master Lin, not the stripper invited by him.

Kuroe Naoko was silent.

After being stunned for a long time, she replied with a strange expression:

"looks great."

"Master, you are quite handsome."

"Oh?" Lin Xinyi smiled even more frivolously: "Really?"

There was a moment of silence.

The police in several places hiding in the dark looked shocked, and for a moment they didn't know who to arrest next.

Shimabukuro Kimie was even more shocked by such drama and was speechless:

Could it be that Mr. Lin is going to act in that kind of drama? ?

Is he trying to get Naoko Kuroe to surrender by seducing her?

Does this even work? ?

The pure miko lady couldn't help but cursed in her heart.

She turned to look at Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha with a confused expression.

Unexpectedly, these two students of Lin Xinyi also looked confused at this time:

"This, this drama is not in the script."

"Mr. Lin didn't add it himself, right?"

Shimabukuro Kimie: "."

Firstly, he doesn’t understand drama, and secondly, he has no acting skills, yet he actually adds drama to himself?

The miko lady was almost pissed off by Lin Xinyi's ordinary but confident and confused operation.

But Master Lin is so confident.

His performance continues.

Although only his back can be captured from the perspective of the audience and camera, his face cannot be captured clearly.

But the real protagonist of this scene, Kuroe Naoko, can clearly see this handsome face.

So Lin Xinyi carried the camera on his back and gave her a weird smile:

"Am I really good-looking?"

"It looks good." Miss Heijiang already wanted to call the police.

And in the next moment.

Something terrible happened.

Lin Xinyi's handsome, harmless face suddenly began to squirm violently like a flesh worm.

But in just a short moment, this face turned into an indescribable appearance:

"What about this?"

"Does it still look good?
