Jiang Xia seemed to attach great importance to the news brought by Maya Hashimoto, and said in a solemn tone: "Then open the door."
"I'll come!" Mao Lilan was already ready to attack. When she heard this, she suddenly stepped forward, turned around and kicked the door hard.
With a "boom", another soul died at her feet.
There was no time to pay attention to the unfortunate door, and everyone rushed into the room through it. When they looked up, the screams of the two female high school students rushed to their throats, and they were silently swallowed back in their throats.
"Strange, why is there no one?" Lingmu Yuanzi carefully poked her head out from behind Jiang Xia, grabbed his shoulders and looked left and right. Finally, she stared at the other door suspiciously, "It must be in the toilet!"
When Mao Lilan heard this, she put away her fearful expression and rolled up her sleeves.
The hotel manager crawled in and squeezed in from the door: "Wait, don't kick me, the toilet door is unlocked!"
It was indeed true. Jiang Xia stretched out his hand and pushed, and the door slid open very quickly. Looking inside, he found that the place was also empty.
"Uh..." The guess was wrong, and Suzuki Sonoko scratched her hairpin in shame... But the beautiful girl detective assistant never gives up! She silently encouraged herself in her heart, and her eyes fell on the bed again, "Should I?"
, it shouldn’t be under the bed.”
Maya Hashimoto's eyes fell on the curtains next to the bed.
The breeze was floating, and the rose-red curtains swelled with the wind, like a slow red wave. This scene reminded him inexplicably of the flowers scattered at the scene of the previous two crimes.
After hesitating for a moment, when everyone went to the bedside, Maya Hashimoto followed and then opened the curtains.
The next moment, he suddenly looked at a pale face hanging in the air - on the branch facing the window, a woman was strangled by a thick rope around her neck, hanging precariously on it. She had a hand tied to her collar.
The petals of the fresh rose are falling off piece by piece, just like her lost life.
Maya Hashimoto: "..."
Just as he stood up from the bed, he accidentally glanced at Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan outside the window: "..."
"ah--!!"
…
The body was found, but there seems to be another problem.
——Where is the prisoner?
"When the scream rang out in the house, there were passers-by in the corridor at the door. I asked just now, and they all said they didn't see anyone leaving the room."
Officer Takagi asked around and came back, sighing repeatedly: "The murderer didn't leave through the door, he could only leave through the window, but I just looked below - the mud floor under the window is very flat, it doesn't look like someone has left there."
That is to say...after the murder, the murderer actually disappeared from the room."
Everyone: "..."
At first glance, this conclusion is puzzling, but in fact...
"Since the 'Hell Puppet Master' can make a corpse disappear out of thin air on a high-speed train, then it should be easier for him to disappear himself from a hotel room."
Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but express her true thoughts: "Swipe to appear and then disappear. Isn't this the basic skill of those magicians? What's so surprising about this."
Conan rolled his eyes: "Magicians are also human beings. Their disappearance is not magic, but some kind of deception. What you should do now is not to lament how normal this is, but to find out and expose the method of his disappearance."
Maya Hashimoto: "..." It rolled up, and rolled up again. The daughter of the Suzuki family pretended to be stupid and cute to deceive Jiang Xia's trust, while the insidious kid with glasses noticed her purpose and deliberately interrupted... This damn workplace is still
There was really no moment of peace.
"In this case, don't blame me for joining in."
Of course, even if he wanted to get involved, as a mature adult, Maya Hashimoto would not bother to engage in a childish quarrel like two minors.
He remembered the strange noises he heard outside the house before, and followed these clues to observe the house. Suddenly, he really discovered the clues.
He whispered to Jiang Xia: "Something is missing!"
Jiang Xia's gaze also stopped in that direction. When Maya Hashimoto said this, he glanced appreciatively at this hard-working fake boy, and then nodded: "Let's go down and have a look."
After walking around in the corresponding room 115 downstairs, Jiang Xia turned back to Officer Sato and said, "I probably know who the murderer is."
Two policemen: "!!"
The police officers who had been busy for two days had tears in their eyes. They immediately understood what they should do: "I will contact the nearby police station and then find the people from the magic troupe."
Finally... I have finally waited for this moment!
…
The police have always had rich experience in this kind of matter.
Not long after, a group of people with different faces were called to the hotel lounge one after another.
"Have you found the murderer?" The few remaining people were a little surprised. Among them, "Joker" raised his eyebrows in an exaggerated manner:
"Don't rush to seek medical treatment when you're sick, and just casually say, 'The murderer is among you' like last time - your casual deception will bring us a lot of trouble."
"?" Suzuki Sonoko couldn't stand listening anymore, "Jiang Xia doesn't fool people! He must have a reason for saying that - then again, what are you so worried about? Could it be that you are the murderer and you are worried about being found out by Jiang Xia?
, so you desperately want to change the subject?"
"Heh." "Clown" was unmoved, "What you said is even more ridiculous than my performance."
Jiang Xia: "What she said is not wrong."
The "clown" laughed loudly: "Little detective, you really like to frame things - when Xihai died just now, I was picking out food in the restaurant downstairs, and many people saw it. Could it be that you wanted to say,
Can I let the puppet kill her for me?"
Jiang Xia shook his head: "I'm not talking about this time, but five years ago, when your pillar, Reiko Konomiya, accidentally fell to her death."
"..." "Clown" Sakonji still maintained that exaggerated smile, but the muscles on his face twitched imperceptibly.
Jiang Xia: "Looking at it now, Miss Jin Gong's death was not an accident, but a deliberate murder. She..."
"Nonsense!" "Clown" stood up and said excitedly, "What evidence do you have for saying that!"
Maya Hashimoto: "..." Five years have passed since the incident, and the evidence has long been crushed by you scoundrels.
He really wanted to speak like this, but as an outlaw who had been in frequent contact with the lawyer's wife recently, he knew that he didn't need to dwell too much on things that were not good for him, as long as he kept hitting the other party's sore spots.
Thinking of this, Maya Hashimoto imitated the detective and said righteously: "The murderer behind that 'accident' was you and your three dead colleagues - you coveted the magic notes in the hands of the deceased, right?
