Chapter 110 Dissolution
"Ah... so satisfied." After eating and drinking, Yuantai sighed.
Mitsuhiko: "Yeah, I don't know if it's because I'm in the game, but even though I ate a lot, I didn't feel full."
Jiang Shou nodded: "Yeah, it looks like I can eat a little more."
Kikukawa: "You said we should buy some more desserts. We still have some money left."
Conan's mouth twitched, and he quickly stopped him: "No, we can't waste any more time, let's focus on solving the case."
Zhu Xing agreed with Conan and turned to teach his two friends: "That's right, you two shouldn't just think about eating, it's more important to complete the game."
Jiang Shou and Juchuan agreed: "Yes——"
Seeing that everyone was paying attention, Conan began to analyze: "Based on Trista's previous answer and the physical evidence we saw in the Shadow Chaser Court, we now know the following clues:
1. All the missing girls have different identities and backgrounds, and no connection can be seen at present;
Second, almost all girls were alone when they disappeared;
Third, the disappearance of these girls was very quick, sometimes just a short time, and there were almost no witnesses;
4. There was a puddle of water at the location where the girl disappeared, and some glass fragments were found at several scenes. It is currently speculated that they might be containers for some liquids.
These are the only clues we have at the moment.”
Yuan Tai: "These clues are so few. What can we know based on these clues?"
Conan was also at a loss. After all, there were indeed few clues, and he had not seen the scene, so he didn't know if there were any clues that had been missed.
Xia Xi touched his chin with one hand, thought for a while, and asked: "Do you remember the prophecy you heard at the port before?"
Zhu Xing replied: "Of course I remember. I was the one who told you the prophecy. I remember the prophecy was like this - the people of Fontaine were guilty from the beginning, so the water level of Fontaine will rise until it submerges everyone. People will dissolve in the water, and only the water god will be left crying on the throne."
"Wait..." After Moroboshi finished his prophecy, he realized something, "Dissolved in water... Could it be that the missing girls were dissolved by water?! That's why there is a puddle of water at every scene, right?!"
Jiang Shou and Kikukawa immediately agreed: "Wow, this makes sense! Moroboshi is amazing, you can even deduce this!"
Conan: "Wait a minute, how can a person be dissolved by water? It's impossible just by thinking about it."
Xia Xi: "How can it be impossible, Conan? You have no imagination. This is a game, anything can happen."
Ayumi: "That's right, Conan, don't always think about things in real life."
Conan Bean Eyes: "Yes, we are in the game now."
Alas, this game is so real that he almost forgot that it was in a game. However, if these people were indeed dissolved by water, then it would indeed explain why there was a puddle of water and glass fragments at the scene, and why the disappearance of these girls was very brief and almost no one saw it, because they disappeared in an instant.
And this is also connected to the prophecy, no wonder the plot makes them solve the missing girl case first.
However, Conan also has a question: why are all the missing people girls? According to the prophecy, all the people of Fontaine will dissolve in water, which means that not only women but also men will be dissolved by water. So why are all the missing people girls?
Moreover, the water that can dissolve people is definitely not ordinary water, otherwise there will definitely be people who will dissolve in daily life. So what exactly is the water that can dissolve people? It is also a question.
Conan expressed his doubts.
Zhu Xing thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that the criminal who caused the girl to disappear hates girls, or a girl did something to hurt the murderer, so he became a psychopath and wanted to take revenge on all women?"
Moroboshi made a bold association. After hearing his guess, Huiyuan said, "Maybe. After all, no one knows what this kind of cruel murderer is thinking."
Although there has been some progress in the investigation, there are still too few clues and everyone is not sure where to start.
"Then let's go to Lujing Spring and take a look." Xia Xi thought for a while and suggested, "Since Fontaine is a land of water, and the prophecy and the case are all related to water, it means that water is a key clue here. I asked before, Lujing Spring is the intersection of all the water systems in Fontaine, and there may be some new clues there. Since we have no clues now, how about going there to take a look?"
Mao Lilan also nodded in agreement, "Well... I think we should go there and take a look." Then she looked at Conan and the others and whispered to comfort them, "Don't be too anxious. There are so many of us, we will always find a way."
Conan looked at Xiaolan's gentle smile, and his anxious heart seemed to slowly calm down. He was ready to change his mindset and think in the way he played the game. "That's right, since the game has made this map, it means it must be related to the conditions for passing the game, so we must check it out."
Ayumi was thinking about something else, and said with some concern: "Since the murderer has a way to dissolve people into water, then are Sister Xiaolan and Sister Xiaxi in danger?"
Zhu Xing: "That shouldn't happen. The prophecy refers to the people of Fontaine, which means that only the people of Fontaine will be dissolved by water. We are not from Fontaine, so we shouldn't be in trouble."
Jiang Shou scratched his head and asked in confusion: "Zhu Xing, how do you know we are not from Fontaine? What if in the setting of this game, we are the people of Fontaine?"
Zhu Xing knocked on Jiang Shou's head and said angrily: "Have you forgotten? When we just arrived here and met the water god, she called us "travelers from a foreign land". Doesn't this mean that we are not from Fontaine? How could you forget such an important thing!"
Jiang Shou and Kikukawa suddenly realized: "Oh ~ That's right, hehe, we didn't notice it before."
Moroboshi: "We should pay attention to something this important!"
When Moroboshi was teaching Jiang Shou and Kikukawa a lesson, Genta came up to Conan and muttered in a low voice: "Conan, this Moroboshi is a bit fierce. Besides, how can I remember the name that others casually said? I didn't remember it either..."
Conan's mouth twitched: "......"
Come on, he actually thinks what Moroboshi said is quite right. Genta, this guy didn't do it himself, but he still complained about others.
