After Gu Moli finished speaking, the entire carriage fell silent.
Everyone involuntarily looked at the person that Gu Moli was pointing the gun at, with expressions of surprise, realization, or thoughtfulness in their eyes.
As for the person being pointed at,
But it is calm and indifferent.
"Although I expected to be misunderstood, I didn't expect you, a gentleman, to be the one to speak. Tell me, what do you want me to answer?"
“Tsk, tsk, tsk.”
Gu Moli smacked his lips and said, "Mr. Vikas, your memory is not very good, but I am kind, so I will repeat it again. If the bloodstains in carriage No. 2 and Atlas' body were hidden by illusion magic, what do you think the murderer who did this is most afraid of?"
"The illusion magic I cast was seen through."
"Correct~"
Gu Moli snapped his fingers and continued, "Then under what circumstances is it possible for the illusion magic to be exposed? You should answer this question again."
"... ..I see what you mean."
Vikas did not follow Gu Moli's questioning pace, but nodded calmly: "Because when we went to investigate, I took the initiative to ask Medusa to stay, so you suspected me, right? It is undeniable that this is a correct suspicion."
Medusa's magic eyes can see traces of magic.
Ultimately, illusion magic can conceal things on the physical level. Although the resulting magic power cannot be seen by the naked eye, it cannot be hidden from Medusa. Therefore, the murderer could not let Medusa see the concealed model No. 2. Then who made Medusa stay in the first place
It’s Vikas.
It was a very simple logic. For a moment, Amt, Banner, and Medusa all turned their eyes to Vikas, their eyes full of suspicion.
But Vikas’s response remained calm throughout.
"Mr. Gentleman, I need to correct you on two points. First, there is no evidence to prove that your previous inference about illusion magic is correct. Second, the reason I let Medusa stay was indeed because she had the magic eye, but it was the opposite of what you said."
Vikas explained in an orderly manner: "The magic eye can see magic power. This is knowledge that everyone knows. When carriage No. 1 disappeared, I asked Medusa to stay because I hoped she could see how the murderer did it, not to prevent her from going to carriage No. 2."
"Rather, sir, your inference is almost entirely based on assumptions. Although you stated this inference in a very calm and confident tone as if it were a fact, in fact, you have been using assumptions without any evidence to target me since the beginning."
"Could you please explain?"
With just a few simple words, Vikas pointed out the most important flaw in Gu Moli's reasoning, and everyone's attention was returned to him.
"explain?"
"No need to explain." Gu Moli shook his head coolly. His eyes became clearer and clearer at this moment, as if he had seen through the fog and saw the truth: "I have solid evidence. I only need a simple question to prove that my inference is absolutely correct."
"Another question?"
Vikas shook his head helplessly: "It seems that you, gentleman, want to throw dirty water on me no matter what. To be honest, I didn't really think that you were the murderer of Leviathan, but now it seems that I am afraid I have to reconsider my opinion of you."
"Ask."
After saying this, Vikas spread his arms.
But the next second he showed a look of astonishment, because Gu Moli did not ask him a question, but looked past him and looked behind him...
"Ms. Medusa, this is the final question."
"Fiion."
"May I ask what you did when you were left alone in the banquet hall and became anxious because of the disappearance of Leviathan and Carriage No. 1?"
"!!!"
The next second, Amt and Banner turned their eyes to Medusa, and Vikas, who was originally confident, began to stiffen his expression.
"Gentleman, I don't know..."
"What are you going to do?"
"... .What?"
Gu Moli smiled and looked at Medusa, whose expression also showed obvious confusion, but Gu Moli didn't care: "Ms. Medusa, you are not stupid. Sitting and waiting for death is not your style. When you are left alone, you can't choose to do nothing."
"... ... ... "
"Of course, you can choose not to answer my questions. I will never be killed anyway. But no matter what, after I take the initiative to reveal this, do you think the murderer will suspect you? And in order to leave the train safely, what do you think the murderer will do to you?"
“That’s enough!”
Gu Moli's voice was suddenly interrupted by Vikas: "Mr. Gentleman, are you threatening Miss Medusa? You have repeatedly attacked Miss Medusa before, and now you want to threaten her. This is not in line with your name. Miss Medusa, you don't have to care about his threats."
With his back to Medusa, Vikas' voice was still very calm and rational: "Just tell me what you know, I promise you will be fine."
"Haha." Gu Moli smiled: "You only have one life. It is much more reliable to control it in your own hands than in the hands of others. What do you think?"
The air gradually became solemn. Gu Moli and Vikas's eyes exchanged at this moment. Behind Vikas, Amt and Banner had different expressions. Amt kept sneering, while Banner looked left and right, with a confused look on his face.
After a few seconds,
"... I didn't do anything."
Medusa gave her answer, but before Vikas could smile, his expression froze with her next words.
“I just made a simple mark.”
"There."
Following Medusa's finger, everyone looked at the door next to the carriage. With a fluctuation of magical power, a scratch gradually appeared on it.
Red scratches.
"This is... .."
Medusa slowly raised her head, swallowed her saliva, and then slowly said, "This is the mark I left with my magic when you left."
“And the place where I left my mark was carriage number two at the time.”
The carriage at that time was No. 2, but now traces of it have appeared in the current carriage No. 1. This is the best evidence for Gu Moli's inference of illusion magic.
Before Medusa finished speaking, Vikas took action immediately, squatting down suddenly, and almost at the same time, Gu Moli pulled the trigger.
boom!
The exploding magic wind raged throughout the entire corridor, and when the blast blew on Vikas, everyone was astonished that Vikas' appearance had undergone a visibly changed, as if a mirage was dispelled and the clothes he was wearing were uncovered.
Vikas’ mature, tall, middle-aged image disappeared.
Instead, there was a short, slightly fat man with ordinary looks.
Dharmavikas.
In mythology, this monster is a mighty dragon when outdoors, but turns into a weak and feeble rooster indoors.
"I finally couldn't help it anymore."
Gu Moli grinned, and his face, which had always seemed to be in control of everything, revealed a bit of indescribable excitement and madness:
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
"I'll kill you right now."
"You are welcome."
