Chapter 201 Live Murder

"I am Killer S. I am different from all of you because I have crossed the bridge to another world by killing someone," Chen Yu frowned as he watched a high school student, his face obscured by a red chili pepper, claim he had killed someone on the screen.

It seemed that to prove his claim, the so-called Killer S even picked up the camera to capture the scene of a dead body lying behind him on the ground.

"This is Classmate Y, whom I killed," the red chili pepper explained, but the expression on Chen Yu's face grew solemn. As a Necromancer, he only needed a glance to know that it indeed was a dead body. Although the cause of death was still undetermined, Chen Yu was sure that someone had died.

After seeing this, Chen Yu opened the website he had been on before to continue watching the red chili pepper, and at the same time, he dialed Misumi Mikoto's number with his cell phone, "Dr. Misumi, what on earth is going on?"

"I'm sorry, Doctor Chen. I received this message today." Misumi Mikoto's voice came through quickly, explaining to Chen Yu, "Killer S is a student from my brother's cram school. He came to me yesterday, and I thought he was interested in pursuing a career in forensic science. But after I received the message he sent today, I saw this.

Moreover, Killer S has asked me to determine the cause of death of the victim, and if I cannot answer, he threatened to kill another person."

"Classmate Y has indeed died, that much is certain, and the corpse is real. The body was already stiff, and the preliminary judgement is that the death occurred last night," after listening to Misumi Mikoto's explanation, Chen Yu understood what had happened and shared his assessment with her.

Hearing Chen Yu confirm the death so directly surprised Misumi Mikoto. She hadn't expected that Chen Yu could make such a determination in such a short period of time, which was beyond her expectations.

She originally called Chen Yu just for some assistance, after all, he had been a great help in their previous two cases. But she did not expect Chen Yu to confirm the death so directly.

"Doctor Chen, could you come to Suikawa High School? Killer S is a student from this school," Misumi Mikoto requested Chen Yu's help.

"So, the cause of death is massive bleeding due to a ruptured hepatic artery?" Misumi Mikoto agreed with Chen Yu's judgment, but she still had some questions about the cause of death of the victim.

Chen Yu nodded slightly and said to Misumi Mikoto, "That's about right, but a more in-depth analysis is still required for specifics. It's a pity there isn't more information, or else we could know a lot more. By the way, where is Mr. Kube?"

"Mr. Kube is looking for clues with Tokairin. Since Classmate Shirai and Classmate Yokoyama are both students of this school and they came to class yesterday, it's very likely the crime scene is inside the school," as a professional forensic doctor, although not very skilled in deduction, site investigation and evidence collection were her areas of expertise.

Chen Yu showed an approving expression and looked at Jounouchi Hiromi, saying to her, "Hiromi, you stay here. Dr. Misumi and I will go see if there's any way we can help."

The occurrence of a murder case inherently made Chen Yu reluctant to involve his fiancée too deeply. Agreeing to bring her here was already the most he was willing to do.

"I should go too; an extra person means extra help," but Jounouchi Hiromi was clearly not content to just sit and feel helpless.

Seeing her determination, Chen Yu hesitated before realizing he could not persuade Jounouchi Hiromi and reluctantly agreed to let her join him in following Misumi Mikoto out of the office to the school grounds in search of the potential crime scene.

After circling the campus, Misumi Mikoto quickly noticed some spots on the ground that looked damp and were clearly in a straight line, so she hurriedly followed the trail.

Chen Yu naturally noticed these traces too and, with his transcendent vision and senses extended, could easily discern that they were left by Luminol Solution used to reveal blood traces.

As for the wiped bloodstains, for a Necromancer, they were as distinct as ink on white paper, easily guiding him to the crime scene that Misumi Mikoto and Tokairin among others had already found—the sports equipment room.
