This time the video not only starts smoothly, but also has obvious timestamps and recording marks, which means that this time it is no longer from a hidden pinhole camera like the previous one.
The camera is facing forward, and you can clearly see two young men and women who are at a loss.
——The target of this incident is Rika Yotsuba and her fiancé, the two people who have already died.
The clothes of the two men were a little messy and torn. The person who brought them to this place had no intention of taking care of them. There were many wounds and dirt on their bodies that were left by walking in the forest, as if they had really been trekking in the woods for a long time.
They were not tied up with conventional ropes or anything like that, but their hands and feet were wrapped in soft but indestructible waterproof cloth.
There is no need to know the outcome of the case. Gin can guess that when their bodies are discovered, the police may not even realize that they have been controlled by someone, let alone find any traces.
Being professional and efficient is one of the reasons why he admires Kumail's execution ability.
"Good evening, both of you."
Of course the camera cannot see the person filming, but because it is a handheld device, the audio is clearly captured in the image.
This is, of course, Kumail’s voice.
Perhaps to show that he was indeed completing the task, Kumail did not use any techniques to change his voice.
His soft, smiling voice made this video with the dark night background even more eerie.
"I heard Mr. Nikaidou boasting that you two have been a couple for a long time, and that other people's ideas about Miss Yotsuigaki Reika are pure wishful thinking. I was a little curious for a moment, so I asked them about your past."
The expressions of Yotsui Reika and Nikaidou, who were confused and frightened in the picture, suddenly turned ugly.
"I soon heard that you two met in a shipwreck. The hero saved the beauty and moved the proud lady... It sounds like a beautiful story. The suspension bridge effect is indeed the beginning of many loves."
Nikaidou Yuji opened his eyes wide.
He was not like Shijing Lihua, who had already experienced the powerful methods of the young man in front of him and spoke in a very tough manner.
"Oh, you also know that your past is shameful and cannot be made public. Then you are better than Miss Lihua."
The camera passed across the two people's slightly embarrassed faces and focused on Shijing Lihua's face.
"Since you all know what I'm talking about, I'll speak frankly. I'll give you three choices."
Along with these words, the sound of the gun being loaded was clearly captured by the camera's microphone.
"First, I will kill you one by one with a single shot, and then throw you off a cliff, making you two completely missing persons.
“Second, I will give you two weapons, you can fight it out among yourselves, and then I will take the living one back;
"third……"
As he spoke, the camera in his hand shook slightly, causing the picture to be a little bumpy.
"I will return it to its original owner, and then Mr. Nikaidou, please use it to record your complete confession. About the tragedy two years ago, about how you killed Nanao Yaeko. Please make sure the picture is clear, the sound is complete, and your faces are included in the picture..."
Gin raised an eyebrow.
Kumail had a gun in his hand as he spoke, which didn't surprise Gin.
Even when facing two targets who are far inferior to him in terms of physical fitness and skills, Kumail is of course fully armed. Even if an unarmed person has the ability to restrain and crush the target, it will often cause illusions to the target and easily bring unnecessary trouble.
He was just surprised by Kumail's almost joking words.
Kumail had no intention of letting the two of them survive, which can be confirmed from the previous video.
Shii Reika, who had fundamentally angered Kumail, had already cut off her own life a few hours ago, not to mention that judging from their reactions, Kumail didn't even disguise himself.
It is common sense that if the kidnappers let you see your face, it naturally means that they have no intention of letting you go back alive.
However, Kumail's slightly relaxed attitude gives people the illusion that his purpose is not to kill people, but he is trying to control the target because he has discovered a fatal secret.
Under this illusion, the two people will subconsciously think that the third option is Kumail's real purpose.
Sure enough, the expressions of the young man and woman in the picture changed in an instant.
Embarrassment and shame, of course. After all, one has to reveal one's shameful past that one does not want to mention in front of a third party.
But at the same time, a bright look of hope emerged on their faces.
He just wanted to know their life-threatening secret, as if the secret itself was valuable, which meant he didn't want to kill them.
Just like how Rika Yotsugu accepted the condition of becoming Yuji Nikaido's girlfriend because of Yuji Nikaido's threat, they naturally put themselves into the role of the time.
When the two people couldn't wait to shout "I choose the third one!" and "Third, then third!", Gin sneered and lit a new cigarette for himself.
"These two idiots are doomed." Seeing that his elder brother had ended his focused observation mode, Vodka took the opportunity to speak up, "Kumair is just looking for a reason to let these two fight each other."
"Did they both drown in the end?" Gin confirmed.
"Yes, that's what the news reported." Vodka brought up the news page and nodded.
Tokyo's journalists have a keen sense of smell, and it is certainly impossible for them to let such big news remain silent.
The news that the only daughter of the Sijing Group died at her birthday party due to her own willful behavior and no one could be found to be held responsible for it has made the rounds in the social news.
"This is why Kumail chose this place." Gin tapped the picture on the screen with his lit cigarette butt.
As the two people made their choices, the camera was handed from Kumail to Nikaido Yuji.
As if to ensure that the footage looked real and credible enough, Kumail also untied the restraints on them.
Just as Gin judged, let alone the wounds, the result of using large areas of smooth cloth as restraints was that although they had been tied up by Kumail for who knows how long, their hands and feet did not even have the slightest redness caused by poor blood circulation.
However, Gin was not referring to the two victims who were frantically picking up the camera, but the background of the entire scene.
This was not just any open space in the forest, but the edge of a pond with a slightly steep terrain.
If Kumail had shot each of them without saying a word, the two people who fell into the water would even be washed down the cliff by the current.
Death by drowning was probably the way Kumail had prepared for them from the beginning.
When Yuji Nikaido took the camera and pointed it at Reika Yotsui, the two of them suddenly fell into a brief silence.
After being together for two years, they couldn't say that they had no feelings for each other, but when it came down to it, their feelings were built on a private alliance of shared secrets.
It is questionable whether the emotional bond resulting from the deepening of trust should really be called love.
Yotsuga Rika is a cold-blooded woman, and Nikaido Yuji, who only cares about his own interests, is no less so, a selfish man.
If privacy sharing had not built a long-term trust model for such a combination, let alone getting married, the fact that they did not become a couple of enemies shows that they are quite compatible.
"Tell the truth." Seeing that the two of them were unable to speak, Kumail, who was watching from the side, suddenly spoke up. "I came here with a mission, and this mission itself has nothing to do with you. You just need to know that someone needs the Four Wells Group, but not a Four Wells Group controlled by you two idiots. Don't worry, this is just to better complete the steps of cooperation. Don't worry too much. I won't make it public easily."
The corner of Shii Rika's eye, who was being faced by the camera, twitched violently.
I don't know if she was unhappy about being called a waste, or she was dissatisfied with the fact that she had to be controlled by others, her expression suddenly became ugly.
Nikaidou Yuji, on the other hand, was visibly relieved.
By saying this, the other party was actually tacitly acknowledging the fact that the two of them would become the heirs to the group.
No matter what the other party's purpose is, they are still valuable, which means that at least their lives will not be in danger.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
With this confidence, Nikaidou Yuji finally had the courage to speak.
"Two years ago, during one of our yacht trips..."
"The exact time and place, and who was there."
His confession was interrupted without hesitation by the hostage-taker who was watching, clearly not intending to let him get away with it.
"...Who still remembers this!" As if to vent her dissatisfaction, or perhaps to suppress her fear, Shijing Lihua's voice suddenly became higher, "Aren't they just a few people?"
"Rika!" Nikaidou Yuji called out, stopping her from behaving even more irrationally. "Okay, that's April, April 23rd. We'll go to the island on the Yotsuei family's yacht as usual... Who knew that we'd run into a storm..."
"Is it a coincidence or just indifference?" Kumail interrupted his narration again, as if he was not satisfied with his attempt to clear himself. "Regarding whether the weather is suitable for sailing, the port must have relevant instructions. Even if you don't understand, Rokuda Masashi has been the first mate for so long, he should know."
"He did warn us. Are you satisfied?" said Rika Shii in a cold voice.
"Hmm, so it's still not accurate. Let's try again."
Nikaidou Yuji swallowed his anger and repeated it again, and this time, even Vodka saw through Kumail's plan.
He had no intention of giving these two people a chance to live from the beginning to the end. He interrupted and corrected them repeatedly, not giving them any room to evade. Of course, it was not to prove the fact that these two people killed others, but to irritate them.
Let their negative emotions continue to accumulate, and when it reaches a certain point, these two young people who have never suffered such a great injustice will definitely explode.
Because of the unreasonable gun in Kumail's hand, this outburst would definitely not be directed at the perpetrator, but would definitely be vented at each other.
As expected, they were interrupted twice more by Kumail.
In addition to emphasizing the fact that they were determined to stay on the island and were unwilling to leave, and that because of the ambiguous period at the time, Yotsuba Rika concealed the fact that she was with Nikaido Yuji, which resulted in Yaeko only bringing a life jacket when she went to rescue them, Kumail also "kindly" reminded them that the camera's capacity was low and they probably only had twenty minutes left.
So, Shijing Lihua could no longer control her emotions.
"What do you mean I should hide your whereabouts?! Nikaidou, you obviously didn't tell them..."
"Tell them, and then expose the fact that you might be about to take over? And you really didn't intend to tell them!"
"Because we weren't a couple at the time!"
"Ha, you want to keep me hanging again, right? If it weren't for the Four Wells Group, do you think I would be interested in someone like you..."
"What's this like me?! Nikaidou Yuji, you're not going to pretend anymore, are you?"
The two people's voices became louder and louder, and soon they were engaged in an argument without paying attention to the people around them.
The pressure and fear caused by the dangerous environment, the security threat posed by the gunpoint pointed at them, the condescending and mocking coercers who looked down on them with contempt even though they were criminals...
The two people, who had never experienced such a predicament, shouted at each other, trying to vent their inner anxiety and fear.
And some anger and dissatisfaction that is difficult to express.
After this video was saved, becoming a puppet was no big deal. The rest of their lives would be tied to each other, and they couldn't help being tied to each other.
Rika Shii had prepared herself mentally for this two years ago, but the occasion was not a wedding church with guests as witnesses, but a forest full of dangers. The situation was extremely embarrassing and they had to reveal each other's secrets under coercion, which still broke her defenses.
Soon, the video switched to the part that was played verbatim to the police.
The two were so angry - and Kumail may have been involved - that the argument quickly escalated into a physical fight, with both men pushing each other.
This part is not so easy to distinguish because the camera is always in Yuji Nikaido's hands, and only a close-up of Reika Yotsui can be captured.
But after Shioi Reika fell into the water and dragged Nikaido Yuji down with her, the picture became clear again.
Just by watching this video, anyone can come to a simple conclusion.
A couple had an argument, and one of them pushed the other into the water. As a result, they were also dragged down and both drowned.
After Kumail's processing, no one would notice the existence of the third person in the picture as long as they did not have complete video footage. A ridiculous accident caused by a conflict was thus successfully fabricated.
As to why they quarreled to the point of losing their minds, why two people who were good at swimming drowned little by little after falling into the water, and why they appeared in the middle of the woods, all the answers seemed to be answered by the two people's hysteria that was completely inappropriate to the occasion.
——This crazy couple, whatever they did didn't seem strange. Apart from the comment that they were really courting death, it wouldn't raise any questions.
Considering those love-minded young people who run wildly in the rain when they are in love, this kind of behavioral logic is not even strange.
Looking at the scene returning to silence, Gin put out his cigarette in the ashtray.
Not to mention the shadow of the organization, no one would have guessed that this case was actually the result of human manipulation.
"It's a bit complicated, but the technique is very clean." Gin commented, and once again confirmed that Kumail is indeed a rare genius in the field of crime. After becoming a detective and coming into contact with more murders, he has made a lot of progress.
An excellent planner, a terrifying executor, and a precise killer.
If he didn't have a mouth, he'd be a really useful person.
The camera is facing forward, and you can clearly see two young men and women who are at a loss.
——The target of this incident is Rika Yotsuba and her fiancé, the two people who have already died.
