Chapter 1795 1794 [Uzo who values ​​life]

 The setting sun close to the horizon dyes the roof of the building golden.

In the almost bright colors, Eimi Konda and Yuuto Kariya stood facing each other a few meters apart, each with a more serious expression.

The utility knife was raised in the air, the tip of the knife reflecting the cold light. Just when it was about to stab its target, the next moment, the rooftop door was suddenly pushed open with a bang.

 “Yongmei!” Mao Lilan and Suzuki Yuanzi rushed in, and then looked at the scene in front of them, stunned at the same time.

—Contrary to imagination, the one holding the sword is not "Romeo", but Eimi Konda opposite him.

This girl wrapped the blade of the knife with a handkerchief, as if she didn't want to leave fingerprints on the knife. The tip of the knife was facing herself, as if it would stab her neck at the next moment.

Jiang Xia walked around the two frightened female classmates and stepped forward. She glanced at the knife in Konda Eimi's hand and said with rare sincerity: "Life is the most precious treasure. Do not commit suicide at any time."

Suzuki Sonoko didn't come back to her senses until she heard his voice. She looked at Konda Eimi in shock, with a blank look on her face: "What are you doing, Eimi?"

Mao Lilan has been exposed to more cases than her since she was a child, and her reaction was faster than Suzuki Sonoko's. She couldn't believe it: "Miss Yongmei, you...are you using us?"

Eimi Konda gritted her teeth and looked at them with complicated expressions without saying a word.

She can't stand on the rooftop waiting for her if she doesn't speak.

Jiang Xia looked at her watch and said for her: "We just arrived downstairs at Qi school today and happened to bump into you being attacked in the activity room. This should have been carefully planned by you - speaking of it, Inviting a friend to your school but not going downstairs to pick him up, instead standing in the activity room waiting for someone to come to you, is a bit strange. It is our first time to come to your school, aren't you worried that the guests will get lost because of this?

Suzuki Sonoko finally came to her senses: "So at that time, Yongmei deliberately found someone to attack her at that time, hoping to be seen by us?"

Jiang Xia shook her head: "There is no 'finding someone', but a one-man show directed and performed by myself. From the angle we were standing at, we couldn't see the situation indoors at all. As long as she stood by the window and leaned back, Pretending to be dragged down, he could disappear from the window and then hide in the house, cutting his hair with the utility knife he had stolen from 'Romeo' in advance, creating the illusion of being attacked.

"Since it was 'attacked', the attacker would not have left the utility knife where it was. So after confirming that we ran into the building, you immediately stood up, threw the utility knife into the flower garden downstairs, and let the murder weapon escape from the room. It disappeared inside, and then was recovered later - if you go to the flower bed under the window now and check, you should be able to see the marks left by the utility knife on the soil.

"Those threatening letters, the pranks on girls who like 'Romeo', including the previous letter asking Kariya Yuuto to return the utility knife behind the gym, all came from you. You plan to blame all this series of things on 'Romeo', and yourself As the fourth targeted victim, 'TB', died of 'Romeo''s assassination at sunset, making the other party bear the charge of murder."

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko did not expect such a bold operation and were dumbfounded.

 Conan has already guessed the truth. So now, instead of reasoning, he raised his head and glanced at Jiang Xia, thoughtfully: "..." Facing this kind of girl who seems to have gone to extremes because of the pain of unrequited love, Jiang Xia didn't speak as softly as he did before. Could it be that …

 Does he dislike people who commit suicide? Obviously he himself... But thinking about it this way, Conan felt a lot more relieved: I heard that people who commit suicide must either go on killing with all their strength and kill more and more bravely until they succeed, or they will realize the preciousness of life in the state of being on the verge of death. , and began to value life again.

Now it seems that Jiangxia must be the latter. This is really a huge relief.

 …

　Kariya Yuuto obviously didn’t expect Eimi Konda to do such a thing. He was silent for a long time before he choked out a sentence: "You got me involved for no reason. There must be something wrong with your brain."

 “Inexplicable?” Eimi Konda smiled bitterly:

“Have you forgotten, I wrote to you a month ago and wanted to ask you to meet. You obviously agreed, but you didn’t show up at the appointed place at all.

"I always thought that you were interrupted by something important. Unexpectedly, not long ago, I passed by the classroom door and found that you and a few boys were laughing at me, and even made a bet on whether I would succeed that day. Go, how long will you stay... It was only then that I remembered that the 'Romeo' I admired, although he later started to study hard, he was just a vulgar little gangster who did all kinds of evil."

Kariya Yoshito was suddenly exposed and sneered: "I am a vulgar little gangster who does all kinds of evil, so what are you? Those stupid girls write to you because they trust you, but you use this to select from among them Love rivals, playing pranks on them.

"Are you really forced to use them to complete your plan, or are you seeking to hide your dark thoughts about your rival in public? - Huh, after all, Romeo and Juliet... Isn't it stupid to be immersed in this kind of illusory drama? !"

 “There are these two idiots.” He suddenly raised his hand and pointed at Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko, and then looked at Konda Eimi:

"Do you think it is difficult to distinguish suicide from murder? Even if the murder weapon is my utility knife, the angle of the blood splatter, the location of the blood spatter, the fingerprints blurred by the handkerchief... As long as I protect the scene, the police will definitely be more willing to commit suicide. Case closed.

"When the time comes, your two friends will start shouting everywhere, saying that I killed you, and then they will be proved by ironclad evidence that they are falsely accusing them, and they will soon learn that they are actually a part of helping you commit suicide... Ha, I do You’re an asshole, but how can you be any better!”

Konda Eimi listened in silence, her face getting increasingly ugly.

Hearing the last word, she suddenly clenched the knife in her hand, looked at Yugito Kariya opposite with a gloomy look, and suddenly raised the knife and rushed towards him.

"…wait wait wait!"

The stunned Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko finally came to their senses. Mao Lilan instinctively rushed forward. At a speed that was so fast that it was difficult to see, she raised her hand and stopped between Konda Eimi and "Romeo": "Anyway, You cannot seek death, and there is no need to send yourself to prison just to take revenge on such a person!"

Suzuki Sonoko also ran close to him quickly. No matter what Eimi Konda had done, it was difficult for the two female high school students to ignore the thought that the living person in front of them might die soon or kill someone.
