Chapter 152: The weak prey on the weaker
The Devil upright, Death upright, Ace of Swords.
All of them were negative.
The image of the revelation had already appeared in Ren Amamiya's mind: a bride spitting blood, falling into a pool of blood with a face full of deathly silence.
"The Bloody Wedding."
Ren Amamiya had almost set the tone for this wedding the moment he saw that image.
The final result of this wedding would be a tragedy.
Who the person causing this harm to the bride was, it was obvious.
The key was the reason behind it.
He continued to shuffle and cut the tarot cards in his hand, then drew three cards again.
The Devil reversed, Ace of Swords, Two of Swords.
A man with a fierce face was chasing a criminal, a car accident occurred, and a woman carrying a child was caught in the accident and died because she did not receive timely rescue.
"Hmm, the grievances of the previous generation have persisted to this generation."
The facts were very clear; this wedding was a deliberate act of revenge.
Ren Amamiya's dormant memories were also awakened; the situation of this case was just like the result he had divined, without any reversals.
However, the result he divined was even more realistic than the story in his impression.
After drinking the lemon juice that had been poisoned, Sayuri Matsumoto was not saved, but was declared dead directly.
Well, after all, it was caustic soda; eating that thing basically burns through the entire internal organs, how could there be any possibility of surviving?
And the nearest hospital from here requires a certain amount of time to drive to; even if one wanted to use gastric lavage to neutralize the corrosion of the strong alkali, it was not something that could be easily done.
Therefore, as long as she ate the caustic soda, the result was fated.
The nerves of Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki, who were listening on the side, were all tightened.
"The Bloody Wedding? Is it that serious?"
"Ren-ren, is there any way to avoid it?"
Ren Amamiya actually didn't want to get involved in this question.
Of course, the main reason was not because he didn't want to help, but because the victim herself had accepted her fate.
"Even if you get involved, there are some things that cannot be changed."
"The problem with this matter is that the person involved knew about the poison and still drank it; she chose to accept her own fate."
"If you participate, I'm afraid it will happen again later."
"The change now would just be delaying the time for that situation to happen."
Ren Amamiya explained the specific situation.
And this also made Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki fall into silence.
If Teacher Matsumoto were being harmed by someone, they could help change it.
But Teacher Matsumoto knew who the poisoner was and was still willing to drink the poisoned thing, so what could be done?
"Then wouldn't it be fine to just send the poisoner in?"
Kaguya Shinomiya directly gave an answer that solved the problem precisely.
Since one cannot change the behavior of that teacher drinking the poison, then wouldn't it be fine to just deal with the person who poisoned her?
"That's right! This way the problem can be solved."
Sonoko Suzuki clapped her hands; this was the best method.
Ren Amamiya, however, did not speak, but quietly looked at Sonoko.
"Even if the poisoner is the groom?"
"Even... the groom!?"
Sonoko Suzuki was stunned; she didn't expect that the person preparing to kill Teacher Matsumoto was actually the person Teacher Matsumoto chose to marry.
Imagining in her mind Teacher Matsumoto voluntarily drinking the thing the man had poisoned.
Sonoko Suzuki's body couldn't help but tremble.
Teacher Matsumoto knew it was that man who poisoned it and still drank it; she knew this was something that had to be drunk, so she chose to die in that way.
"Ren-ren, what is the reason?"
"The grievances of the previous generation."
Ren Amamiya did not hide it, but told the result he had just divined.
"Sayuri Matsumoto's father is a police officer."
"Back then, while chasing a wanted criminal, her father accidentally caused a car accident, which happened to hit a woman who was out with her child."
"That woman was unlucky and got caught up in it."
"That child originally hoped to hold onto Sayuri Matsumoto's father, hoping he would send his mother to the hospital."
"But Sayuri Matsumoto's father only had eyes for the wanted criminal at the time and did not notice the woman who was caught up in his accident, so the tragedy was caused just like that."
"Sayuri Matsumoto found out about this at the juncture of getting married; one was her future husband, and the other was the father who raised her; when she couldn't make a decision, she chose to die in her father's stead..."
The reason for this revenge was very clear.
At this moment, the girls around understood why the groom would poison the bride.
Because the groom wanted to let the bride's father taste the feeling of losing a loved one that he had tasted back then.
Sonoko Suzuki bit her back teeth hard.
"That bastard, did he know who Teacher Matsumoto's father was, and that's why he deliberately went to approach Teacher Matsumoto?"
Ren Amamiya nodded slightly.
"Using Teacher Matsumoto's feelings, and still wanting to take revenge on her father?"
"Then whose head does Teacher Matsumoto's revenge count on?"
"Why didn't he dare to directly take action against Teacher Matsumoto's father!"
Sonoko Suzuki cursed angrily.
She had looked down on that frivolous guy before; heaven knows why Teacher Matsumoto would take a fancy to that kind of man.
Now knowing that the man used Teacher Matsumoto's feelings to take revenge on Teacher Matsumoto's father, this made her even more angry.
Doesn't he know about settling scores?
Why take action against the innocent Teacher Matsumoto?
"Actually, the reason is quite simple."
Chika Fujiwara thought of a very suitable reason.
"If he took action against a public official, maybe it would implicate the Takasugi Conglomerate, right?"
"So, the groom only took action against the bride."
"When the time comes, even if he is caught, he can cut ties with the Takasugi Conglomerate and say it was his own personal behavior."
Good heavens, Sonoko Suzuki was almost angered to laughter by this reason.
Ren Amamiya did not oppose such a possibility, but he believed there was another situation.
"The weak prey on the weaker."
"Because that man didn't know if he could send Sayuri Matsumoto's father to hell, he took action against Sayuri Matsumoto, who was easier to deal with."
This reason made Sonoko Suzuki even angrier.
This reason didn't just make Sonoko Suzuki angry; even Ran Mouri was about to be angered to death.
"Ren-ren, do you have any way to make Teacher Matsumoto not do those foolish things?"
Ren Amamiya thought for a moment.
"Then let's go talk to the bride."
