Chapter 488: Unspeakable

Then Bagui spoke: "There's nothing to say. I just walked around the house and never met the uncle once. However, I kept bumping into that frivolous woman, and she said a lot of unpleasant things. She

Said she was on the phone and told me to get out of the way."

As a result, everyone acted alone, and no one could provide an alibi for them.

Having said that, if anyone had a reliable alibi during such a long period from 3pm to 11pm, it would be even more wrong.

"Ah, so tired——!"

At this time, the detectives finally let Du Ruo go, and she returned to the guest room.

She grabbed her hair, threw herself on the sofa, and lay down with her head on the armrest.

"Next, there are a lot of delinquent young men over there, those terrible uncles are waiting for you -"

"Who is this delinquent boy? Where am I?"

Yaki tidied up his plane head and followed him to the next room.

"Everyone has already said it, so I would like to ask Miss Du Ruo to answer..."

"After three o'clock in the afternoon, Miss Du Ruo, where are you and what are you doing?"

"Oh——, it seems like a real investigator." She clapped her hands happily, "It's three o'clock, right? Who remembers such a small thing?"

"It's probably enough to just say it..."

"Uh-well, I just went to look at each room and called my friend on the phone while walking... I guess...?"

"Okay." It seems that just asking is of no use.

"Sister Yui." Kirigiri stood on tiptoes and said in Yui's ear, "There is nothing going on here. Let's go and investigate a few places now. Let's go."

"Let's go...where?"

Kirigiri suddenly grabbed her wrist and planned to pull Yu out of the waiting room.

"Ah, all you have to do is eat and not work!" Du Ruo's voice made the girl feel like a light was on her back.

"Sorry, we'll be back soon!" Just saying this, Yu was dragged to the corridor by Kirigiri.

"What's wrong, Sister Kirigiri, you're rarely so positive."

Kirigiri always said in the past that if she didn't receive a commission, there would be no point in solving the incident, or her only purpose was to advance, and she had never been willing to really have anything to do with the 'Black Challenge'. It's hard to imagine that she would be like this now.

manner.

"...I don't have the time anymore."

"Are you saying there is not enough time? Indeed, the remaining time is decreasing by the minute, but in simple terms, a case can take almost forty hours, so there is still plenty of time."

"That was not what I meant……"

Kirigiri lowered her head and covered her mouth with her hand, as if it was difficult to speak, but at the same time, her hand holding Yu's wrist did not relax at all.

Yue could only follow closely behind her obediently, staring at her slender shoulders and back.

What a heavy burden this thirteen-year-old girl's body carries.

What was different from the past was that the back that originally looked thin and lonely in her eyes was now extremely firm.

"You still have some things you can't tell me, right?" She didn't nod or look back.

"Because of all the messy things like the 'Black Challenge', I never had the chance to ask you, is there any reason why you can't go home now?"

"We'll talk about this later." Kirigiri shook off her outstretched hand and simply expressed her rejection.
