Chapter 310 The director unconscious in the secret room
"Speaking of which, this house is really shabby..."
Following Kotani Renzo, Hattori Heiji looked at the dusty corridor and couldn't help but sigh.
"There are traces of repairs everywhere..." Detective Bai Ma also judged that this should be an old house.
"Whose house is this?" Conan asked curiously.
"I don't know... I only heard that this small house seemed to be abandoned by a rich man, so the organizer rented it at a low price." Kotani Renzo told the information he knew.
"By the way, has that girl already gone to the restaurant?" Tokijin Junya looked around, then quickened his pace and walked to Koutani Renzo's side.
"Not yet, I'm going to invite her now..." Jiagu Rensan looked at him.
"Girls?" Hattori Heiji looked confused, "A girl comes to this island?"
As they were talking, several people stopped walking, and Jiagu Rensan knocked on the door next to him.
Soon, the door was opened from the inside, and a short-haired woman wearing a school uniform and an untied scarf poked her head out.
"Huh? No way?! It's already so late?"
This girl looked like a high school student, with a delicate and pretty face, and a look of surprise on her face.
Koshimizu Nanatsuki said irritably while tying his scarf in a hurry: "It's too bad... I delayed it for too long..."
Both Conan and Heiji were shocked. They had just been together for such a period of time, and they didn't realize that Nanatsuki Koshimizu was a girl at all.
It's just that Nanatsuki was wearing headphones and sunglasses just now, and his attire was quite androgynous. It's not that strange that two high school students who haven't had much experience with girls didn't notice it.
"The rules of our high school are very strict, and it takes a lot of time to dress up properly...skirts must be 3 to 5 centimeters below the knees, scarves must be symmetrical, black socks are worn, and ironing is strictly prohibited. If you have eyebrows trimmed, you even have to write a letter of apology.
People like me with natural brown hair have been warned many times..."
Koshizu Nanatsuki kept talking.
"Uh... if there's no filming tonight, then you don't have to be so particular about it, right?" Detective Bai Ma discovered the blind spot.
The atmosphere at the scene fell into silence for a few seconds.
Then, Koshimi Nanatsuki, who was still checking his appearance, happily walked out of the door in two or two steps: "You are right!"
Several people came to the restaurant together, and the table was already filled with delicious food.
"Wow! Looks delicious!"
When Nanatsuki Koshizui saw the feast on the table, he excitedly exclaimed: "Uncle, did you cook all this?"
"Yes..." Seeing that she seemed to like the meal very much, Kotani Renzo couldn't help but smile. The feeling of being recognized for your hard work really makes people feel happy from the bottom of their hearts.
"Huh? Where's the director?" Conan's eyes were looking around for the bald figure of Hiroo Tsutsumi.
"When I knocked on his door just now, I didn't hear a response..." Kotani Renzo also behaved strangely, "I thought he had already come here first?"
"Can you take us to his room?" White Horse Detective said immediately.
It would be a bit impolite to start eating dinner without waiting for the director, so everyone decided to go to Tsuchio Hiroso's room to call him over first.
"Knock knock!"
"Mr. Tsuchio, dinner is ready. Mr. Tsuchio?" Kenzo Kotani led them to the door of the director's room, but no matter how hard he knocked, there was no movement inside.
Seeing this, Hattori Heiji reached out and turned the door handle, trying to push it in, but he couldn't turn it at all.
"No... I probably locked the door and fell asleep in the room."
Hattori Heiji twisted it a few times and found that it didn't move, so he shook his head. However, when he let go of his hand, he found that the door handle seemed a little slippery.
He looked at his palm, and a dark red color came into view.
"Is this... blood?"
Hattori Heiji immediately bent down and examined the door handle carefully.
"There is blood on the door handle..." he said with great certainty.
Hearing that there was blood on the door handle, everyone suddenly became serious. They are all detectives, and they have to deal with blood on many occasions. This kind of blood stain that has not been wiped off is often associated with the word "accident"
.
"Where is the key to the spare room?" Koshizui Nanatsuki opened his eyes wide and asked Kotani Renzo.
"No...this place is just like everyone's room. It can only be locked from inside the room..." Jia Gu Rensan shook his head and said.
"Since it's the same as our room, it means it should also have two windows?" Junya Tokatsu said while holding his chin.
The white horse detective immediately ran towards the door: "Then I will take a look at the situation inside the room from the outside!"
But the next second, there was a loud noise behind them.
"Boom!!!"
The two turned around suddenly and saw Hattori Heiji and Edogawa Conan slamming into the door of the room at the same time. The loud noise just now was the sound of their bodies hitting the door.
The door was quite old and the door lock was not very secure. The two of them only clashed three times before they worked together to break the door open.
The two of them were about to enter the room, but were quickly stopped in their tracks by the scene in front of them.
I saw Hiroshi Tsutsuo being tied up and curled up on the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
Heiji and Conan immediately squatted down and called the director's name:
"Mr. Tsutsuo! Mr. Tsutsuo?!"
Tokijin Junya looked at the layout of the room leisurely: "The lock on the window is indeed locked, so in this way, it is a secret room murder case, right?"
"The door lock is indeed locked..." Koshimizu Nanatsuki did not rush into the room, but checked the door lock.
"Well... but the premise is - if he has really been killed." Hakuba Detective said while checking Tsutsuo Hiroso's condition.
Amidst everyone's chatter, Hiroshi Tsutsuo woke up leisurely.
"Well..."
It seemed that he was just in coma before and there was no fear for his life.
"Hey! What happened? What happened?"
Conan and Heiji asked eagerly.
"This..." Tsutsuo Hirosheng felt that his head was heavy and his consciousness was blurry, but he still managed to get up and said, "Someone knocked on my door. I opened the door but saw no one..."
"When I was about to turn around and go back to the room, I was suddenly drugged from behind."
He recalled what happened before and said with lingering fear.
"Detective Koshien...the first question!"
At this time, Kyatani Renzo spoke, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted the attention of everyone present.
