At the same time, people's laughter echoed in the underground game room, as if coming through the old coffin boards.

"Can this opening still make you laugh? Is it a bit unsatisfactory for the excellent detectives? Now the 'Night of Suspense' really begins. Next, there will be real puzzles and

Terror continues to appear in front of you, so stay tuned..."

"What are you doing? You scared me!" Bando looked at the ceiling and said in a bad tone.

"That's right, if it ends like this, there will be no point in coming to Nagano!" Maki Mehito spread his hands and said.

When the loudspeaker started to emit sound, Saoki quietly stood behind everyone, "The sound coming from the loudspeaker can be so synchronized with the scene. Obviously, the real body of 'Leedlam' is very likely to be seizing the opportunity."

Control the remote control!"

But after looking around, when the laughter from the loudspeaker stopped, Saoki didn't find anyone who was obviously acting abnormally.

Firstly, there are many people and their bodies are blocking each other; secondly, you only need to press it lightly and don’t need to move too much.

He was still a little unwilling, so he raised his ink umbrella and shouted to the crowd: "Everyone, please listen to me!"

"Sagi-kun?" Everyone turned and looked at Ryota Sagi.

"At this moment, I suspect that 'Redram' is among us!"

"Uh...why did Saaki-kun say that?"

Akechi speculated: "Is it because the sound from the speaker happened to be at the end of the wax man case here?"

"Akechi Akechi is right. He can seize the opportunity so perfectly. The real body of 'Leedram' must be carrying a remote control with him," Sagi paused and continued, "So, I would like to ask you

Check each other’s belongings.”

"Stop talking nonsense, why do you need to search me?" Bando was holding back his anger just now.

"Search? Are you kidding me, Mr. Sagi?" Richard Anderson, an Englishman wearing a white suit, chuckled, "We are asked to check each other for no reason, and if 'Leedlam' is among us,

time, then what’s the point of this ‘night of suspense’?”

"Haha?!" Maki Mehito also chuckled.

"I knew it would be like this, but after missing this opportunity, 'Redlam' will definitely be on high alert," Saoki couldn't hide his inner disappointment, but still expressed his thoughts, "My reason is'

The meaning behind the name Redram'."

"'Redrum'?"

"What's the meaning?"

"'Redrum' can be seen as the homophony of redrum. If you arrange the letters from right to left," Sagi used his right index finger to draw the word 'murder' in the air, and continued, "you can get 'murder'

This word!"

"'murder'? Murder, homicide?" Everyone was shocked.

"How can it refer to the murder of a real person? It's a wax man, a wax man!" The optimistic Maki Mehito retorted with a smile, "Look at the wax man lying on the billiard table as Mo Hui. This is also the theme of 'Suspense Night'

, solve the wax man murder case!"

"That's right, it surprised me." Takigawa Hui sighed softly.

"Zaomu-kun, there is no need to search. Maybe 'Leedlam' is secretly observing us in some dark room. Medieval castles would have many secret passages designed for defense and safety reasons, right?"

"Richard is right, that's how it's done in all the TV series I've seen!" Maki Mehito agreed.

Seeing that the attitude of the others was similar to that of Richard Anderson, Saoki could only shrug and sighed, with a rather insincere tone, "I hope so!"

"By the way, I haven't seen Ms. Ma Hui in person since just now?" Richard said curiously, pinching his tie.

Zuomu didn't want to stand out for the time being. Although he suspected that Ma Hui was already a corpse, if he said anything more at this time, he would probably be suspected first.

"I guess I lay down to rest early after taking a shower. The sound reached the third floor of the west tower, so it's normal for it to be ignored." Kaneda said carelessly.

Akechi Police frowned and asked: "Aren't Ma Hui and you accomplices, Kindaichi-kun?"

"Isn't it? I don't know either. The only thing written on my envelope is one person's arrangement."

Nanshan Junzo said: "I'll go and call Ms. Touma Hui."

As an old acquaintance of Toma Hui, Richard Anderson patted Bando on the back and suggested happily: "No, let's go see her together. She happens to know nothing, so we can scare her!"

The large army walked up the stairs, passed by the fireplace with wax figures, chatting and laughing, and then went to the first floor hall of the West Tower, the second floor, the third floor... The five people in the West Tower all lived on the third floor.

The candlelight of the candlestick flickers.

Richard Anderson walked to the door of Ma Hui's residence first, turned the doorknob, and the door opened, "Is it unlocked?"

As soon as he pushed it open, a blue billiard ball "Gulu" pressed against the door rolled away.

A horrifying scene appeared. Touma Hui, who was wearing green clothes, had the same posture as the wax figure in the billiards game room, with her eyes wide open, half lying on the table, holding the yellow No. 9 ball and the red No. 3 ball in her hands.

There was a dagger stuck in the back of his heart, lying in a sea of ​​blood.

The table and floor were covered with dripping blood, most of which showed signs of coagulation and appeared dark red.

There was thunder outside the window, and a pale light flashed on Toma Hui's pale cheeks.

"Everyone, stay back at the door and don't come in. Miss Maria, please examine the body immediately." Police Akechi turned to the German forensic doctor.

"Okay!" Maria, who was called, went to the room to get the gloves and returned here.

A few minutes later, Maria walked to the crowded door, took off her gloves, and said, "Ms. Dang Ma Hui's fatal injury was on her back. The dagger stabbed directly into the heart, causing her instant death."

"Where's the time of death?" Zuomu asked quickly.

"Based on the stiffness of the corpse, the turbidity of the pupils, and the weakening of the intraocular pressure, it was probably more than half an hour ago. It is now 8:20, that is, between 7:35 and 50."

"I understand." He nodded.

Akechi ordered to the black-clothed deacon: "Mr. Nanshan Shunzou, if something like this happens, the 'Suspense Night' activities should be over. Please call 'Redram' out as soon as possible!"

Nanshan's forehead was dripping with sweat and he spoke intermittently, "No...actually...that Lord Redlam is not in this castle."

Saoki touched his chin, "The first priority is to contact the police first!"

"This...well...there are no telephones or communication tools in the castle."

Mingzhi Jianwu said as he ran outside: "Let's put down the suspension bridge. The car I drove is parked in the courtyard. I will go down the mountain and rush to the village at the foot of the mountain to contact the police."
