Thinking of this, Keiko Hatoyama sighed lightly.
She really wanted to persuade her grandfather to take action against Karasuma Renya, and this was what she had always thought.
But what made her helpless was that this matter could not be changed by her own will.
Her greatest effort was to prevent her grandfather from getting involved in Karasuma Renya's plans.
Could she still say to Mr. Hatoyama like this: "Grandpa, don't worry about me. I have already prepared to die. You should quickly find a way to control Karasuma Renya. It would be best if he disappears from the world, otherwise he will definitely endanger the world in the future!"
How can this be……
Even if she wanted to say it, Mr. Hatoyama would not listen to her.
The old man treated her the same way that Keiko Hatoyama herself treated boys.
After thinking about it, there is only that one sentence left.
Can't let go, can't bear to.
Chapter 619: Xiao Wu Wan is outputting
The female deceased who was reported to have died happened to be the heroine of the movie on this set.
As soon as the boy and the two detectives entered the set, they quickly and skillfully understood the specific situation at the scene.
The heroine was killed in the early hours of last night. There was a dent on her head from a blunt object, which was the only fatal wound.
The outside of an ashtray that fell on the floor of the room was stained with blood, which was obviously the murder weapon.
In addition, there were a large number of bloodstains with special shapes on the floor of the heroine's room, as if they had been wiped by something. Based on these bloodstains, the boy quickly reconstructed the situation at the scene.
The heroine did not die immediately after suffering a severe head injury. She first fell to the ground and fell into a brief coma, which made the murderer mistakenly believe that she was dead, so he hurriedly left the room without even carefully checking her vital signs.
Not long after the murderer left, the unconscious heroine gradually woke up. However, it was already the middle of the night and she had lost too much blood to call for help.
In the last moments of her life, the heroine could only rely on the little consciousness left in her mind, struggling to crawl on the ground, holding in her hand the thing that she thought could identify the murderer.
As the boy said this, he picked up the violet flower that the dead heroine was holding tightly in her hand with his white-gloved hands.
Among them, Kokarasuma was standing behind the two detectives, looking at the boy who was reasoning and solving the case with fear and curiosity.
Perhaps for her, this kind of detective solving a case in reality is still a very novel thing.
Not far behind, Keiko Hatoyama was sitting on a bench on the set, watching the scene quietly.
After all, for Keiko Hatoyama, she had seen this scene too many times in the past.
As a result, she developed a special ability, which she didn't know whether it was a special ability or something else.
Many times, she only needs to take a glance at these cases to roughly understand the difficulty of the case.
If it was a case that she felt would be very troublesome to solve, Keiko Hatoyama would basically assist the boy in solving the case.
But if it was a case that seemed extremely simple at first glance, she would choose to sit aside and wait for the boy to solve it quickly.
Just like today's case, after entering the set, Keiko Hatoyama took a look at the situation on the scene and immediately felt that this should be a fairly simple case, so she sat quietly aside and waited.
And that was indeed the case. After looking at the scene, the boy sorted out most of the information.
This must have been committed by an acquaintance, and the murderer must have committed a crime of passion without any prior planning.
Therefore, the murderer must be someone in this area.
Just like many cases in the past, this case is about to face the fate of being "squashed" by the boy.
The only little episode was probably the little Karasuma who had a strong curiosity.
"Why must it be someone familiar who committed the crime?" Xiao Wuwan asked curiously.
The boy turned his head and looked at her, explaining, "Because there was no sign of damage to the door lock of the deceased's room, and the murderer committed the crime in the early hours of the morning, and the deceased was a single woman, it is impossible for her to be careless enough to open the door to a stranger under such circumstances."
"Then why is it certain that it was a crime of passion?" Xiao Wuwan asked again.
"Because after committing the crime, the murderer left the scene in a hurry without even confirming whether the victim was dead."
The boy continued to explain, looking quite patient, and he seemed to want to use Kokarasuma's questioning to explain all this to the detectives and crew members who were watching around.
"If this was a premeditated murder, it is highly unlikely that he would have forgotten to check if the victim was dead after committing the crime.
In contrast, it is more likely that the murderer had some conflict with the deceased and killed him in a fit of rage, forgetting to confirm whether the deceased was really dead and then fled the scene in a panic, which is more in line with the situation at the scene.
All these mysteries lie in this violet flower."
As if he thought he had explained it all, the boy looked at the violet flower in his hand again.
In the back, although Keiko Hatoyama did not come over to see the scene directly, she was quietly listening to the boy's reasoning.
When she heard the boy mention the violet again, she was slightly stunned, and suddenly raised her hand to cover her mouth, with a look of surprise on her face.
She knew who the murderer was.
"Could the murderer be Miss Kate?"
Among the people on the set who were watching, a staff member suddenly spoke up.
"I remember these flowers were delivered by Miss Kate yesterday afternoon..."
In the crowd, Miss Kate, who was named, turned pale and tried to defend herself.
"Wait, wait! I did give you the flowers, but..."
"Not Miss Kate."
The boy glanced at the elderly woman who had enthusiastically explained the various equipment on the set to him and Hatoyama Keiko yesterday, and slowly said:
"There is a vase next to the bed and the dressing table in the deceased's room. Since the flowers in them were sent by Miss Kate, and Miss Kate is the murderer, the deceased only needs to hold any flower at will.
There is no need to crawl to the vase on the bedside that is farther away from you to take out the violet. In other words, what the deceased wants to convey to us is not just the "flower", but a message that must be related to the violet in some way. "
In the back, Keiko Hatoyama was waiting with a smile, waiting for the boy to ask her something.
This case is indeed very simple, but there is a little knowledge necessary to solve the case which the boy living in poverty does not have. Without this useless little knowledge, he cannot truly understand the message that the deceased wants to convey.
This is also the reason why the boy has not yet pointed out the identity of the murderer.
Based on past experience, it was almost time for the boy to ask her.
"Then... could it be Mr. Greg?"
At this time, another staff member asked.
"Because the character played by Mr. Greg in the film is called Violet..."
"Hey, hey! I was discussing the script for my role with the director and the screenwriter all night long! Please don't wrongly accuse me like this, okay?!"
Upon hearing this, the second male lead named Greg shouted anxiously.
"That's right. The three of us discussed this until almost six o'clock last night before we went back..." The director and the screenwriter also nodded in agreement.
But this time, the boy just stared at the violet in his hand and said nothing.
Just as Keiko Hatoyama thought, he knew the answer was on this violet, but he really couldn't understand the purpose of this violet.
After eliminating all the possibilities he could think of, the boy finally determined that the message the deceased really wanted to convey was probably beyond his knowledge.
So, he turned his head habitually and looked at Keiko Hatoyama who was sitting not far away.
Unlike him, a nerd who only learned the necessary knowledge for exams in school since childhood, Keiko Hatoyama has read widely since childhood and her knowledge reserves are far beyond his reach.
Every time the boy encountered a case where he knew how to deduce but was unable to proceed due to lack of necessary knowledge, he would seek help from Keiko Hatoyama.
But this time, something was different.
"It's Poplar!"
Suddenly, Xiao Wuhuan, who had been thinking with his head down, suddenly shouted excitedly.
"I know! This is the message the deceased really wanted to convey! The murderer's name is Poplar!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the male lead named Poplar among the staff members watching suddenly turned pale.
However, the next moment, a fierce look appeared on his face. He pulled out the dagger hidden in his pocket and rushed straight towards Xiao Wuwan.
Chapter 620 There is a pool of water in her eyes
"I know! This is the message the deceased really wanted to convey! The murderer's name is Poplar!"
Among the crowd watching on the set, Xiao Wuhuan, after some contemplation, suddenly looked up and shouted loudly.
"Popura?"
The boy turned to look at her, and at the same time, someone in the crowd suddenly changed his expression.
“Didn’t you say before that the deceased was of Italian descent? Although she could speak English and Japanese, Italian was her real mother tongue!
Therefore, when she wanted to leave information about the murderer before she died, she subconsciously used her native language.
What the deceased really wanted to convey on that violet flower was its purple color! Poplar means purple in Italian! "
[Purple and Poplar?]
Hearing this, the boy nodded slightly.
This was exactly the last piece of the puzzle that he was missing. His poor living environment since childhood had prevented him from being exposed to knowledge beyond the scope of what was taught in school, and naturally he was unable to understand the message that the deceased really wanted to convey.
So, is there anyone named Poplar on this set?
There really is.
The boy remembered that when he and Keiko Hatoyama came over yesterday, the staff on the set also introduced them in detail.
Among them, the name of the male protagonist who acted with the deceased heroine was Poplar.
"damn it!"
Just as the boy thought of this, Mr. Poplar, whose identity was revealed and who was also in the crowd, suddenly drew out the dagger from his body and rushed towards Xiao Wuhuan who was still immersed in excitement.
This person is really reckless to the extreme.
"Xiaoqing!"
In the back, Keiko Hatoyama, who had already deciphered the message the deceased wanted to convey with the violet flowers and had been paying close attention to Mr. Poplar, immediately shouted.
The boy quickly came to his senses upon hearing the sound, and at the critical moment he threw the violet flower in his hand away.
