852. Chapter eight hundred and fifty-two
Chapter 852:
Everyone was here. The little maid here compared one by one, and she seemed very serious. When she pronounced the name of Kogoro Mori, Conan Edogawa and the others were all surprised. This was not the time they had agreed on. How could he have his name?
Conan Edogawa asked the little maid to confirm again. However, the result was this. Kogoro Maori's name was on the list of people who would come here today. In this way... the eyes of a primary school detective became serious. Uncle Maori had expected that the person would come at this time.
Their actions were all within the control of that person. This was not a happy thing. At this moment, the primary school detective looked a little annoyed. However, he quickly calmed himself down. At this time, the little maid continued to say that the master had something to give to them.
It was a very old recorder. The little maid put a tape in it. These were some tips from the owner to them, not only for the detectives, but also for the very ancient legend here. This legend will be fulfilled in this place until now. Because there is no one here.
There was also the old man near Juju, these two puppets whose original purpose was here. At first they thought it had nothing to do with them, but after that they knew that the legend also involved the most famous puppet show here. No one would be uninterested in this origin.
There are indeed some problems in this place. When a nun put his eyes on the blonde Onmyoji, the very famous Onmyoji in Tokyo just nodded slightly. The nun had just come in from outside and had not had time to understand anything here. Only she is trustworthy.
The little boy Conan Edogawa was a little surprised. She hadn't said these things just now. The blonde Onmyoji just shrugged his shoulders at him, which had nothing directly to do with what they were going to investigate. They had actually been sleeping in the remaining things here for a long time.
Sleeping? A primary school detective was just reading this sentence. There seemed to be some thought in his voice. Yes, it was just a sleeping place. "But it seems that someone doesn't want them to continue to sleep." The blonde girl narrowed her eyes slightly. A cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
If they really want to investigate this matter, it will inevitably stimulate the things that are sleeping here. Before they find out the results, they will wake up and become active. When they are told this, most of the people here have hesitated in their eyes.
He couldn't just give up. Because this was the only clue that could save Eli. A confused detective didn't understand so clearly, but he still expressed his determination. In order to save someone, nothing was more important than this. So, they decided to take a risk.
No matter what kind of monsters are asleep here, they can hardly fight in the end. Kurohaku Express expressed this idea at once. The young blonde and dark-skinned detective next to him nodded with his head as if he was harmless. It is more important to find the kidnapped Madam Maori as soon as possible.
Hello! You don't have to be so nervous. A blonde Onmyoji is so casual and has a slight helpless feeling. This is just a little thing... But! She actually doesn't have the awareness that all of this is caused by herself. She still doesn't intend to say anything.
The sound in this tape has been around for a long time, and it sounds a bit intermittent and a little blurry. People here can hear all of these clearly. This is all because they are already focused. In the end, it leaves a particularly important clue.
What happened here is not a mysterious thing. This is explained in the legend, but why? All the people here died overnight. Even no one was left. It happened every hundred years. Even if the house changes, it is still here.
Now the time is almost close. People who come to this house will be very dangerous. However, a certain blonde Onmyoji said that only if they continue to investigate can the things here wake up and be active. This is different. Does this mean that there are other things?
Ju Zuojin and the old man are more familiar with this legend. They are both very famous people in terms of puppets. They have never seen the most traditional version of this drama in person, but the others who have been circulated may not be very mature in terms of technology, but the context of the story is said to have not been adapted at all.
At that time, they thought something was strange. Yes, that reason for breaking it out was completely inconsistent with the rhythm and emotions of the whole story. But there was also a strange and harmonious feeling. It was precisely because of this puppet show that it became famous so quickly and was loved by everyone.
The reason for the story is that a princess accidentally came to the forest. When she saw a child playing there, she kindly gave him an apple. It was a very sweet apple. It was very delicious. The princess also brought it from her castle. She loved it very much. She was very happy to see him.
The kind story was just about to leave. But when the child finished eating the apple, he immediately caught up with the kind princess. But the princess had no more delicious food in her hands. The child was not satisfied and ate her like that.
The little boy was very full. After eating, he touched his own belly beautifully. The princess was there. But after a while, the little boy was dissatisfied again. He stood up staggeringly, and then he turned himself into the original appearance of the princess.
In this way, the little boy used the identity of the princess, and he ran to the princess' castle and had a good meal. He was very happy with the food. No one found out that their princess had been replaced. The little boy held the princess until one day proposed to hold a dance.
The dance was not a strange thing for them. They really held it like this. But they didn't expect that on the night of the dance, all the people they attended became food for the little boy. None of them escaped from there.
The little boy was finally full. He fell asleep in the castle. Because of this happening in the castle, gradually, they could not manage the outside country. Gradually, the country was annexed by other countries. The castle was gradually sealed.
Thorns were entrenched there, and this place was always regarded as a curse by people. Until a hundred years later, the castle was pushed down and rebuilt by the new king. This place was no longer the place where the king lived, but became a new residence of an ordinary minister. He did not live there.
There are only some people in this house that must have servants. As a result, one day, the people in this house disappeared overnight again. It was the little boy who woke up, and he swallowed all the people in the house into his stomach in one breath. Then he went to bed again.
This situation continued like this and it continued again and again. This was the final ending of the puppet show. No one knew how to completely stop this. The old man told them the story, and Yujin was also very serious about adding somewhere.
Is that little boy's existence real? Why can a kind-hearted apple bring such a big disaster to them, and it will continue to cause disasters. These are all things without any explanation. They are also the things they need to solve most now. A primary school student wants.
The sleeping boy was not the so-called little boy. Since the blonde Onmyoji knew what was sleeping here, a primary school student detective wanted to confirm with her. However, the result she got now... this only shows that the reason made up in this puppet show is indeed not correct.
The people who had died here were sleeping here. The blonde Onmyoji's voice was a little slow, and there seemed to be something else in it. Their unwillingness and obsession remained here. If they woke up, all of these would be very dangerous.
So that's it. The Conan Edogawa nodded, and the others also heard the explanation from them. They had to feel sad for the souls. After so long after death, they were still trapped in this place. They had no way to leave and could only fall asleep.
They must solve this problem now. Now they not only have to find the person who kidnapped Eiri, but they also have to help these souls ascend to heaven safely. They looked at each other, especially the children of Conan Edogawa and Hattori Heiji. They have made this preparation.
The two people started to act first. There might be some records of the original things in the house. Not only that, Conan Edogawa also quietly contacted Dr. Agasa, and then, when Dr. Agasa and himself used the Internet to check, they learned more about this place.
