People couldn't see clearly what it was, perhaps a monster, or perhaps a ghost, but when it was all over, the girl lying on the wet asphalt road had no body temperature, like a broken doll.
Only Kuroto Kiriya was left, with an expression uglier than crying.
…
Four years ago, the truth of that rainy night caused the audience's expressions to change suddenly.
Because, after seeing these pictures, everyone has realized what Ryougi Shiki's personality is like, and whether the murderer back then was this girl.
Without a doubt, the conclusion is of course negative.
"There is absolutely no way Ryougi Shiki is the murderer!"
All of a sudden, someone in the cinema started to speak like this.
Similarly, others immediately expressed their opinions.
"Sure enough, I was saying it, how could such a girl be a murderer who kills ordinary people indiscriminately? The real murderer is indeed someone else."
"I never thought that the truth back then would be like this. Although Araya Souren had his intentions, he actually helped Kuroto Mikiya and Ryougi Shiki."
"But if that's the case, why did Ryougi Shiki kill Kurogiri Mikiya? If she didn't want to kill anyone, why did she chase after Kurogiri Mikiya and show such a strong desire to kill him?"
"It should be that from Ryougi Shiki's point of view, Kurotogi Kan is also an obstacle to her existence. After all, Ryougi Shiki has two personalities inside her, one yin and one yang, which balance each other. The external Kurotogi Kan also broke this balance, which naturally made Ryougi Shiki unbearable."
"I see, that's true. In the end, Ryougi Shiki couldn't kill Kurogiri Mikiya, so she chose to commit suicide. After all, only in this way can the balance of yin and yang not be broken."
"Is that so? Did Ryougi Shiki choose to commit suicide just because of this thought? Why do I feel it's not that simple?"
"To be honest, I also think there is something strange about this. After all, the sudden attack of the black shadow and the fact that only Ryougi Shiki died after Ryougi Shiki committed suicide seem too coincidental."
"Yes, after Ryougi Osamu died, the balance of Ryougi Shiki was naturally broken. After losing her original balance, she actually had the opportunity to start a new life. It's simply perfect!"
"After all, if Ryougi Shiki is not the murderer, then who is the real murderer? Why does every murder scene appear next to Ryougi Shiki, as if deliberately misleading others to think that the murderer is Ryougi Shiki?"
"Who knows, but I think the real murderer will surface in this final chapter."
"… "
The audience's discussion stopped here, and the unlocking of a huge foreshadowing made all the audience feel refreshed.
What's more, this also cleared Ryougi Shiki's suspicion, and all the audience were in a very good mood at the moment.
Of course, due to the explosive ending of "Fate Zero", people are still not relieved. Right now, everyone is watching TV nervously, worried that the next plot will develop in a bad direction like "Fate Zero".
Under the audience's nervous gaze, the plot of "Kara no Kyoukai" continued to unfold.
Chapter 318: The Final Episode of "The World of Kara" is Released! (V)
Chapter 318
The TV screen switched after the memories of Kuroto Kirei ended, and the camera switched to Ryougi Shiki.
It was obvious that Ryougi Shiki had not lived in a decent place for a long time. She was wearing a leather jacket with obvious stains on her upper body and the hem was covered in mud.
The continuous hunting made her look exhausted, and she finally found an ordinary hotel to rest.
While taking a bath, Ryougi Shiki recalled the magician named Book of False God. His behavior made her recall too many things that she shouldn't have recalled, and these things were gradually destroying the daily life that Ryougi Shiki had built up bit by bit since she woke up.
"Huh..."
With a sigh, Ryougi Shiki decided not to think any further. Exhausted, she took a short rest and left the hotel to continue her pursuit.
The next moment, the scene of the movie switched, and this time the focus was on Kurodori Mikiya.
Ever since Ryougi Shiki disappeared, Kuroto Kirei has been searching for her, but to no avail.
Just then, he met his uncle Daisuke, who seemed to have something to talk about and came to him.
"Wasn't there a body found in front of Liang Yi's residence three years ago? You should have known that the criminal has reappeared, right?"
"Did you find anything?"
"We found clues to the criminal. All the crimes this year have happened in small alleys on busy streets. The murder scene is surrounded by the streets, so there are a lot of people. Every time someone sees a person wearing a red leather jacket there..."
At this point, Akimi Daisuke suddenly noticed that Kuroto Kirito was standing there in confusion, so he immediately said:
"Hey, Mikiya, what happened to you?"
"I'm fine."
"That's good. Let me show you this."
As he spoke, Akimi Daisuke took out a package from his arms and said:
"Do you know what this is?"
"An addictive drug?"
"Yes, half of the people killed this week had this drug on them."
"… "
Hearing this, Kuroto Kirei's eyes suddenly lit up, and he knew that he had found the clue.
…
Seeing the scenes on TV, the audience's emotions were aroused again.
After all, according to Daisuke Akimi's words, Ryougi Shiki seems to be the real murderer, but this kind of clue that seems to be deliberately misleading can be easily seen through by people, so most people are still not shaken by the fact that Ryougi Shiki is not the murderer.
But even so, the increasingly suspenseful plot still makes the audience tense. At this time, everyone wants to know what the truth is behind this murder case that has lasted for four years and has been brewing since the second episode of "Kara no Kyoukai".
After all, this will in some way determine how the whole story ends.
The audience's current expectation is nothing more than the simple hope that this story will not end up with a miserable and sad ending like "Fate Zero".
…
The plot on TV continues to develop. After getting clues about the murderer from Daisuke Akimi, Kiriya Kurotoshi begins an investigation.
At this moment, he came to the dirtiest and most chaotic area in the city, looking for his key clue person here.
In order to find the murderer, he even tested the drugs on his own body, tried his best, and used himself as bait to find the real murderer.
However, in the end, he did not meet the murderer, but met a strange person instead.
He wanted to go up to the other party and ask him about the medicine, but he was pushed against the wall and held a knife to his neck.
“Why are you investigating me?”
In response to the statement of this figure who was clearly a woman but had an overly cold aura, Kuroto Mikiya carefully replied:
"Because you're the only one around here who doesn't sell that kind of medicine, I think I should be able to learn something about the medicine from you."
"Just that?"
"Because it's so strange that the drug sellers never talk about the drugs at all."
The woman heard Kuroto Mikiya's fearful yet resolute words, paused for a moment, and finally nodded:
"Okay, what do you want to ask?"
"I wonder..."
For a moment, Kuroto Kiryu told the other party the connection between the serial killer and the addictive drugs, and expressed his attitude.
In response, the woman nodded and said:
"I see. That's what you want to ask. Why do you want to ask such a thing?"
"… "
"Forget it, I'll tell you, just like the news, the guy in the red leather jacket is the murderer."
"!!!"
Upon hearing this answer, Kuroto Kirei's expression suddenly changed.
The woman continued:
"It happened that last night, I saw four young men fighting with a woman in a red leather jacket."
"See? But you just mentioned a woman in a red leather jacket, but the news only reported that her gender was unknown. How did you tell that she was a woman?"
"Although I'm far away, the figure is indeed very beautiful. What's wrong, do you know that girl?"
"… "
"I advise you to give up on her. She is abnormal. Even when surrounded by four thugs, she can still control her position."
"Know the measure?"
"Neither killing nor releasing, in order to enjoy the killing again and again, I have seen many mentally ill people, but this is the first time I have seen such a person. Why, you seem a little disappointed, by the way, those thugs are all drug addicts."
"Um, can you tell me about the medicine?"
"Why, do you still want to find that girl?"
"Please."
"Well, the drug you have is a new variety. It is very potent and addictive. It can destroy a person's body and mind. That's why I don't sell this drug, and I don't approve of bloodchips!"
"Wait, what's a bloodchip?"
"Don't you know?"
"have no idea."
"Tsk, that's a special drug that's stronger than any addictive drug. The drug lord specially made this stuff and only sells it to minors, so the police don't know about it."
"Thank you. I understand."
"Don't go too far. Those bloodchip users are no different from lunatics. If you push them too far, you will only fall into the abyss."
"Okay, and do you know the name of that drug dealer?"
"It's okay to tell you..."
In an instant, the sound of the picture was completely silent.
And the only one who heard the voice, Kuroto Kirei, had a completely dull expression at this moment, as if he had heard a name that was impossible to hear.
Chapter 319: The Final Episode of "The World of Kara" is Released! (VI)
Chapter 319
The pace of "Kara no Kyoukai" is gradually picking up speed, and the audience's emotions are gradually being aroused. After all, at this point, most people have already noticed a certain sense of incongruity in the plot. The dual-perspective actions of Kurodori Kan'iya and Ryougi Shiki are also quite strange, which makes people guess endlessly.
"Is this an addictive drug? This kind of thing should be contraband, why would anyone sell it?"
"This... maybe because there is no magic in the world of Kara no Kyoukai, so there is no ability to conduct large-scale inspections of goods. If it were in our country, if there were contraband in the goods transported from other places, I'm afraid that as soon as they came in, they would have been caught by the magicians at the checkpoint using magical identification techniques."
"But I think this may also be related to smuggling. If it does not take the normal route and bypasses the detection agencies, even contraband may be brought in."
"Well, that's true, but people who take this drug will behave very strangely. Unless they never go to church to see a priest and don't accept any divine or magical treatments in their lifetime, it will be 100% obvious at a glance."
"Yes, so this kind of thing is almost never seen in our empire. Ever since the law a thousand years ago clearly stipulated that drug use and trafficking were prohibited, and the circulation of such goods was completely banned with the power of the Holy Light Church and the Imperial Magic Academy, nothing like this has been seen in the empire since then."
"Drugs, although I have never seen such a thing, I think movies and TV are living **! After watching it, I haven't slept well for several months. If I can't watch new movies or TV for a day, it's like countless ants crawling on my back!!!"
"This is your own problem..."
"… "
People were talking about it.
From their words, it can be seen that the human empire of this world has completely blocked the possibility of drug trade from the very beginning due to the foresight of its founder and successive monarchs, as well as the existence of supernatural powers such as divine arts and magic.
Moreover, due to the increase in food production brought about by magic and divine arts, most people can have enough food to eat and do not need drugs to escape reality.
Therefore, most of the audience of Empire is almost unable to empathize with the drug-related content in the movie.
Du Lin also realized this problem after talking with the magicians around him.
But since he has already filmed it this way, there is naturally no room for regret. He can only accept the fact that this part of the plot may seem a little weird to the audience, and try to avoid similar content in the future.
At the same time, those who could not understand the plot of the movie naturally included King Hubbard and General Wilhelm. They also felt a little confused about this plot and ultimately could only understand it as the fiction of the story.
Apart from that, it was the Orc Prophet and Orc Spy Juno who had great feelings about this drug-related content and were even alert.
After all, in the Orc Kingdom that relies solely on the Human Empire, food crises are natural and occur frequently due to years of famine and the orcs' own unskilled use of magic.
For this reason, in order to ensure the supply of food, the Orc Kingdom had to launch wars from time to time and consume a portion of the young population. The only way was to choose some cheap and easy-to-grow and survive food crops as food for most orcs.
