After all, even if everything is divided into two, there will definitely be one side with more and the other with less.
However, the difficulty has indeed increased to a level that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, but before that—
"Mr. Asagao Nomura, please bring me all the information we have obtained regarding this case."
Looking up at the monitor, Kanzaki Teru said this, knowing full well that his meaning had reached Nomura Asagao.
So they turned their attention back to Kazami Tsuru.
"What do you want to know?"
"800" "Don't rush, I haven't finished yet, but—"
If I had to say, I don't know where you got that information.
But you probably already know what I want to know.
"That's true, but I don't have the ability to give you a satisfactory answer."
"It's okay, as long as you can provide me with some clues."
"Alright, in that case, I'll agree."
"Don't rush me, I haven't finished yet."
Just then, Nomura Asagao walked into the room carrying a stack of documents.
"Although I'm in a position where I need your help, I still have to say that you've really given me a difficult problem."
These documents were not originally intended to be shown to outsiders. You have no idea how much responsibility I bear by showing them to you.
"Don't worry, don't worry, you can leave it to me."
"And you actually made such a bet, do you even know...?"
"Alright, don't worry, just leave it to me."
"Hey, I never thought that we prosecutors would ultimately have to rely on a kid like you."
Although she was somewhat unwilling, Nomura Asagao couldn't say anything more.
After all, even if Kanzaki Teru didn't get any clues, Nomura Asagao's position couldn't blame him.
However, this was not the reason why Kanzaki Teru made such a bet.
Throughout history, language has accounted for 30% of human communication activities.
In other words, by carefully observing Kanzaki Teru, one can obtain nearly 70% of the clues.
However, before that, Kanzaki Teru needs to determine the stakes with the other party.
"Continuing our previous topic, I have one more rule to change."
"what?"
"The theme should not be limited to the location of the copycat, and no restrictions should be imposed."
"Alright, since you've already decided to answer all ten questions correctly, I'll broaden the scope a bit."
"Okay, but you'll have to wait a little while before that."
"Please make yourself at home, but it would be nice to chat with you, wouldn't it?"
"No problem, what would you like to talk about?"
While responding to Kazami Tsuru, Kanzaki Teru carefully read the investigation report.
"How about we talk about the girl you like?"
"I'm sorry, I don't have a girl I like."
Although Kanzaki Teru verbally agreed to chat, his actual response was one that made it impossible for the conversation to continue.
"So, do you prefer men?"
"I don't like anyone else, I only like myself."
"That's a great answer. I like myself too."
However, such an answer directly erected a high wall between the two of us...
"But you've already turned it over, haven't you?"
"Oh, you mean I can continue the advance?"
"No, there's also the Wall of Rose and the Wall of Sina."
"Hey! Am I a giant?!"
Pfft—no one would guess that this exchange took place in a detention center, after all, Kanzaki Teru was facing Kazami Tsuru, who was known as the Murdist.
However, in Kanzaki Teru's eyes, she was just an ordinary person with some inside information.
During their conversation, Kanzaki Teru quickly finished reading the document.
"Aren't you worried? After all, the victim might already be dead while you're reviewing these documents."
"Thank you for your concern, but it's alright. After all, the victim should be fine this time."
"Oh--"
Upon hearing Kanzaki Teru's answer, Kazami Tsuru's eyes narrowed into slits.
She didn't answer Kanzaki Teru's question directly, since answering it would be like giving him the answer to question 5.1 for free.
Seeing how easily Kazami Tsuru evaded his probing, Kanzaki Teru once again felt how difficult this person was to deal with.
"Judging from your expression, you're already prepared, aren't you?"
"let's start."
Taking a deep breath, Kanzaki Teru had prepared all the information he needed.
"The first question—"
Everyone was waiting for Kanzaki Teru's question, as every question was extremely valuable.
There could be no waste, so Kanzaki Teru spoke up under everyone's watchful eyes.
"What are your measurements?"
Chapter 287: Changing the Rules
The silence lasted only a moment before being broken by Kazami Tsuru's soft chuckle.
"Hahaha, is this your first question?"
"Don't joke with me!"
While Kazami Tsuru was laughing heartily, Nomura Asagao, who had been monitoring every move in the room, was not.
He even stormed into the room in a fit of rage.
"Mr. Nomura Asahi!"
However, Kanzaki Teru showed no sign of panic when facing Nomura Asagao.
After all, this situation was expected, so he called out his name in a voice that seemed to strike right to the soul.
"Believe me!"
Seeing Kanzaki Teru's determined gaze, Nomura Asagao's initial rage subsided somewhat, and she left the room.
However, his expression didn't show that he believed Kanzaki Teru's meaning; rather, it indicated that he had completely given up.
But for Kanzaki Teru, other people's opinions didn't matter at all, as long as he could ultimately achieve his goal.
"You're quite interesting, but unfortunately, this is a young girl's secret, and I can't tell you."
"Okay, then the second question—"
To locate and gather information about copycats, you need to know their modus operandi.
Moreover, according to the information just released, the latest victim is in Tokyo.
Considering the time of the incident, the copycat should not have escaped Tokyo.
Moreover, the key lies in the other party's purpose. Since they are followers of Kazami Tsuru, their purpose might be...
"—Is the copycat's goal to see you?"
"Yes, and that's not all."
"Not only that?"
He muttered the words that Kazami Tsuru had said, even though she was just giving him a smokescreen.
But given her personality, she wouldn't do such a thing.
Kanzaki Teru pondered what the word "not only" in her words truly meant.
However, let's find the answer to this question last.
"The third question—"
After asking the first question, Kanzaki Teru had already pretty much guessed the truth.
This answer was far more boring than I had imagined, since the other party's goal was to see Kazami Tsuru.
It must be near this detention center, but there are no buildings around the detention center.
If anyone is loitering around the area, they will definitely be questioned.
After all, who in their right mind would wander around here? But since there are no suspicious people around, there's only one answer left.
"—Is the copycat criminal in this detention center?"
Upon hearing Kanzaki Teru's question, the people in the detention center erupted in excitement once again.
However, Kazami Tsuru's answer was a time bomb that detonated the entire detention center.
"Yes, that's right. I didn't expect you to guess it so quickly."
It seems I underestimated you.
Upon hearing her affirmative answer, Nomura Asagao immediately organized a search of the detention center.
However, no matter how much he searches, he won't find any suspicious persons.
