Chapter 577 The Identity of the Edo Boy

"...Isn't it?" Xi Jiang calmed himself down and spoke weakly.

"How can you associate so many things?" Ze Yu smiled bitterly, and was speechless: "I didn't kill that guy Jinshi, and I won't do anything to you either."

"On the contrary, I'm here to save you."

“But…” Xijiang was stunned for a moment, still unwilling to believe it, and said hesitantly: “You just said that I am doomed…”

"Yes, that's right." Ze Yu nodded and said in agreement: "If you take one more step forward."

After saying that, he walked towards Xijiang. Xijiang subconsciously wanted to dodge but was stopped by Zeyu.

"I told you not to move." Ze Yu was helpless.

Why does this old lady like to move around so much?
If you slip and accidentally step into a trap, you can't blame Ze Yu.

Hearing this, Xi Jiang clenched his teeth, stopped moving, and stood there stiffly.

She didn't want to make the other party angry and then be killed by a few arrows.

Ze Yu slowly walked to Xi Jiang's side. He looked at the ground in front of him and suddenly said, "Look."

"Hmm?" Xi Jiang was a little confused.

What's so good about the ground?

Although she was confused, she still lowered her head and looked at the ground.

When she looked at it, she found a problem.

"This is..." Xi Jiang widened his eyes in surprise.

I saw that there was a place on the ground in front of me whose color was obviously different from other places.

Looking closely, it is a piece of wood placed on the ground. It looks different because the color and texture of the wood are different from the surrounding ground.

If it weren't for Ze Yu's several reminders, Xi Jiang almost stepped on this wooden board just now.

"Why is there a wooden board in this place?" Xi Jiang asked in confusion.

"Just watch." Ze Yu said silently, he took out a stone from his pocket and threw it at the wooden board.

Click!

There was a crisp sound, and the whole wooden board was broken in the middle by the impact of the stone, split into two halves, and then fell downwards.

This turned out to be a deep pit!
"This..." Seeing this scene, Xi Jiang's face was full of shock, and his heart was filled with turmoil.

It turns out that there is a deep pit hidden under this wooden board. What would have happened if Xi Jiang had accidentally stepped on it?
It is certain that the board is too fragile to bear the weight of a human being.

If Xi Jiang accidentally stepped on it, he would definitely fall into the deep pit.

From this height, if she falls down, she will definitely die!

Thinking of this, Xijiang's heart was filled with fear and he couldn't help but gasp.

She finally understood why the child repeatedly told her not to move, because if she moved forward, she would fall into the abyss...

A dead end!
Xijiang couldn't help swallowing. She turned her head and looked at Zeyu.

In order to save me, he came here late at night, but I misunderstood him...

Xijiang felt a strong sense of guilt, and said with shame and gratitude: "Thank you, little friend!"

"Don't call me kid." Ze Yu said lightly: "Call me 'Xiao Yu'."

"Okay, Xiaoyu." Xijiang nodded seriously with a very serious attitude.

"But who set this trap?" She hesitated for a moment, and said in doubt: "Isn't this too immoral? It's obvious that they want to kill people!" "Even if it wasn't me, but someone else stepped here, it would definitely be a dead end!"

"Just think about it and you'll know who did it." Ze Yu said.

"Xiao Yu, what you mean is..." Xijiang frowned and guessed, "Is this a trap set by the person who killed Jinshi?"

"Of course." Ze Yu nodded and agreed to this statement.

At this moment, Tamonsuke appeared on the stage, holding a flashlight in his hand, looking at Ieie and Sawaha standing opposite him with surprise.

Xijiang also saw Tamonsuke, and she said in surprise: "Could it be that the murderer is you, Captain?"

"It's not me." Tamanosuke quickly shook his head and said seriously: "The reason I came here is to find the real murderer."

"But you slipped me a note and asked me to come here at night." Xijiang said seriously, "That's definitely your handwriting, there's no way it can be wrong!"

"But after I came here, I almost died." Xijiang looked at the huge pit in front of him and said in a complicated tone: "Do you see the huge pit on the ground? If it wasn't for Xiaoyu's reminder, I would have stepped on empty air and fell to death here."

"I didn't set this trap!" Tamanosuke said quickly, "In fact, I stuffed notes into many people, not just you!"

"Captain." Upon hearing this, Xi Jiang looked bewildered, and even his tone contained deep doubts.

"So, you're planning to kill people randomly? Whoever steps into this trap will die."

"Have we offended you?"

"Xijiang, believe me!" Tamanosuke was so aggrieved that he was about to cry: "This trap was definitely not set by me!"

Tamanosuke felt like he was about to collapse.

Why does it get darker the more you wipe it?

Sawaha admired Tamonsuke's aggrieved look and felt very satisfied.

Tamonsuke is definitely a good candidate for cross-dressing. Not only does he look like a girl, but his personality is also a bit like a girl.

Seeing that Tamonsuke was about to collapse, Ze Yu finally spoke up: "Auntie, Tamonsuke brother is definitely not the murderer."

"The real murderer is Edo Boy, and he is hiding in your troupe. Brother Tamanosuke knows this, so he sent notes to everyone, hoping to find Edo Boy."

"Is that so?" Xi Jiang was a little surprised when she heard this, but because it was Ze Yu's words, she believed it.

"Yes, I am really innocent." Seeing someone speaking for him, Tamonsuke finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just at this time……

"elder brother!"

A voice of grievance was heard, and a little girl ran onto the stage and hugged Tamonsuke's thighs.

It’s Xiaohui.

"Really? You made me worry to death!" Xiao Hui pouted and said coquettishly, "I thought you were the murderer!"

"Xiaohui, why are you here?" Tamonsuke looked at his sister in surprise and reached out to rub her head.

At this moment, the lights on the stage suddenly lit up, illuminating the dark environment.

Wow!
As the lights came on, Conan appeared on the stage.

"Little boy with glasses, you are here too?" Xijiang blinked and looked at Conan in surprise.

Conan nodded slightly.

Seeing that everyone was present, Ze Yu smiled and asked softly, "Do you want to know who the Edo boy is?"
