Chapter 1193: Offset planning strategy
The atmosphere then became calm.
A few minutes passed.
Koshizui Nanatsuki still didn't speak, he just stood there with his hands in fists and a complicated expression.
Do you still want to explain?
No, maybe it should be said that there is still a need to explain?
It is definitely not an accident that the other party is able to discover the flaws in his behavior, and the core of the problem is that he should have been prepared for a conversation of this level from the beginning.
But why haven't you noticed it yet?
Koshizui Nanatsuki looked at Ye Gengyi who took the coffee from Kotani Renzo and looked like he didn't care about the answer at all, thinking that he had found the reason.
That's right.
This person... was able to complete the intelligence collection work without leaving any trace without alerting the three detectives present. He is obviously the kind of character who has absolute confidence in the judgment of clues.
Therefore, even if he has this awareness, he has no way to defend himself.
So, when exactly is it?
Was it when the door was knocked open?
Was it when Hattori Heiji, Hakuba Tan and Tokizu Junya were arguing?
Or was it when Junya Tokatsu discovered the tricks of the secret room?
If it were just a part of it, people who had never seen it before, Koshimizu Nanatsuki, would be surprised.
Because she felt that Ye Gengyi would discover the problem, but he was focusing on a certain person intentionally or unintentionally.
But the fact is...
Not only did he decipher the loopholes in his subconscious behavior, but he also stopped the quarrel between Hakuba Tan and Hattori Heiji, taught the arrogant Junya Tokizu a lesson, and finally admitted that he had seen through the tactic of setting up the secret room.
...all this in such a short period of time.
In that slightly chaotic situation, did this person actually take it all in?
It's really amazing... Nanatsuki Koshizui sighed, so much so that his long-planned plan was completely disrupted and he was a little at a loss.
"Oh, it looks like everyone is still troubled~"
Behind him, on the side of the corridor near the entrance and stairs, Tokatsu Junya suddenly appeared. He walked slowly towards the direction of Tsutsuo Hirōsei's room, passing by Ye Gengyi and Yuesui Nanatsuki, and finally stopped at
The three detectives looking outside the door said loudly in a mocking and teasing tone:
"Aren't you all hungry?"
"Eh?"
Hearing his voice, Conan, Heiji Hattori and Detective Hakuba did not hide their surprises. They all turned to look at the detective who claimed to have unlocked the secret room and went to the second floor to arrange traps.
"10 minutes and 14 seconds, 49 minutes and 46 seconds short of the one hour predicted..."
Hakuba Tan took out his pocket watch, confirmed the position of the hour and second hands, and asked: "Classmate Shijin, you appear in front of us now. I can understand that you just went to the room to change clothes, and you have not started to decorate the secret room.
The method?"
Conan: "..."
Hattori Heiji: "..."
Should I say it or not, how strictly does this guy control time...
Tokijin Junya laughed "haha", shook his head and admired: "As expected of Hakuba-san, you can actually see that the color of Xiaosheng's coat is only a little darker than the previous one..."
He paused, then changed the topic and said, "Xiaosheng is already very hungry. If possible, can we go to the restaurant to eat and chat at the same time?"
Boom.
At this time, jagged flashes of light streaked across the sky, followed by thunder,
Several people looked at Toki Jinjunzai's proud face and immediately guessed the other party's intention.
It was obvious that he was stalling for time.
Because in the reasoning competition, when the answers are the same, time is another criterion for judging the quality of the students.
Simply put, the longer the time it takes for several people to solve the puzzle, the more it will reflect the level of Tokizu Junya, the first person to see through and restore the secret room technique.
However, if that technique only takes 10 minutes and 14 seconds to complete, it is really unreasonable for them to continue to search here. Otherwise, the White Horse Detective would not have proposed the one-hour limit before.
"I agree to go eat first." Ye Gengyi said.
White Horse Detective: "..."
Hattori Heiji: "..."
Conan: "..."
I don’t know why, but I suddenly don’t want to go…
…
But I think so.
Several people left Tsuchio Hiroso's room and came to the restaurant together.
The sound insulation of the wooden house is not very good.
Listen to the rain pounding on the outer wall and the echoing thunder.
Tokijin Junya seemed to be joking and said with a pun: "This environment is really suitable as a stage for suspense events, but I don't know if tonight will be a sleepless night."
Does this guy think that we can't solve the secret room at all, so he will think hard all night?
Conan was also extremely unhappy after hearing these words, but he was not like Hattori Heiji, who chewed the sashimi without making a "squeaking" sound.
"A stage for suspenseful events?"
Detective Bai Ma elegantly cut the steak on the plate and said with a smile:
"This kind of weather reminds me of a mystery novel "Thunder" that I read some time ago... However, it is still quite surprising."
"Ah?" Tokijin Junzai was startled.
"It's just the taste of these dishes. Should I say that Mr. Kotani's cooking skills are good, or that we are just too hungry?"
Hakuba Tan looked at Tokijin Junya with a smile and said, "Because once a person is full, no matter how delicious food is placed in front of him, he will feel bored, right?"
Huh? This guy is also very good at attacking people... Conan looked like he was just watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.
"That's right," Hattori Heiji nodded, and his words were obviously much more straightforward: "Although you took the lead this time, in the end, this is just the first round of the game, so don't be so shameless.
Alright, is that okay?”
"Well..."
Toki Jinjunzai seemed to realize that he seemed to have offended the public, so he stopped discussing this topic and said vaguely: "Haha, Xiaosheng didn't mean that."
"Huh, that kind of thing is fine no matter what. What really makes me curious is this fake director."
Hattori Heiji turned his attention to Hiroo Tsuchio, who was enjoying the meal, "We have already found out his identity, but he still refused to reveal anything. This should be regarded as an accident in a TV show, right? Will it really not damage the subsequent recording process?
?”
Especially when they returned to each other's room just now, Tsuchio Hiroki didn't even follow him to take a look.
The suspicion is too great!
"No, no, if I tell you, I won't be able to get the promised reward."
Hiroshi Tsutsuo waved his hand, leisurely took out the cigarette case from his pocket, shook out a cigarette, put it in his mouth and started smoking.
"Promise?" Hattori Heiji asked, "Is it to sell the TV station to Japan?"
"Hmm..." Tsutsuo Hiroshi said vaguely, as if he didn't want to answer the question.
"So can you tell me about this?"
Bai Ma Tan turned to look at the purple flowers in the flowerpot, "Ever since I came to this wooden house, I have always cared about the smell of these lavenders."
"So... Heiji-nii, we seem to have lavender in our room." Conan shared the information with everyone.
"There is also one in my room..." Koshimizu Nanatsuki said.
"Haha." Toki Jinjunzai just smiled and said nothing.
"In addition, there is a toolbox next to the flower pot," Hattori Heiji asked: "Is that kind of thing related to this test?"
"Probably, who knows." Hiroo Tsuchio said, "Don't ask me about this kind of thing."
"Perhaps finding its use is part of the test?"
Jiagu Liansan came over with a fruit plate and distributed it to everyone, "Of course this is just my personal opinion."
"That's true, but after all, I have lived in the UK for many years and know very little about the secret room murder cases that have occurred in Japan in recent years..."
Detective Bai Ma took out his mobile phone and glanced at the 'no signal' sign on it, and said helplessly: "It's really difficult to get enough information on such an isolated desert island."
"The Lavender House Secret Room Murder Incident..."
