Chapter 1265 The art of lying flat in the mountain village
"What else did you find?"
Conan looked up at Kuramoto Yoji, quietly opened the cover of the anesthesia needle watch with his hand behind his back, and said innocently, "I seem to have found something else. I don't know what you are referring to, brother?"
"
"How about you tell me everything?"
Yoji Kuramoto stopped in front of Conan, still hesitating between 'killing people to silence' and 'bribing children'.
As a first-grade kid, if he uses a Masked Superman card or something to bribe the other person so that the other person doesn't tell anyone about the secret passage, would that be possible?
No, no, it's still not safe enough. Even if the child agrees not to tell, when the police come, he will definitely not be able to keep the secret. Then he will still have to kill someone to silence him, right?
The question is what else did the kid discover?
Conan didn't find anything at first, and he wasn't even sure that Yoji Kuramoto had done anything illegal or criminal. He just felt that Yoji Kuramoto had important secrets to hide. But when Yoji Kuramoto asked about it, he suddenly thought of it.
one question.
Who built this secret passage?
If these people had not lied before, then the secret passage should have been built by the original owner of the house, the brother.
The time should have been when the brother nailed the windows shut, said there was a devil in the house, and asked someone to renovate the interior of the villa.
After that, the brother's wife found someone secretly staring at her behind a regular window in the garden. Not long after, she hanged herself in the room, and the brother also jumped from the third floor to commit suicide...
Plus that weird bird’s nest box…
Did that brother's wife really commit suicide?
What is certain is that there must be some problem between the couple. The brother may have built this secret tunnel to monitor his wife or even kill her.
In other words, the secret passage is likely to connect the brother's room on the third floor and the room on the second floor where the brother's wife is.
Now, that brother's room on the third floor is occupied by Kuramoto Yoji, and that brother's wife's room is right next to the room where the window was stared at, which is the room where Miss Renzi is!
Yoji Kuramoto was peeking at them from behind the window before, and now he looks like this. Could he really be killing people?
Chi Feichi sat sideways by the window, quietly turning his head to look at the large and small children standing face to face without saying a word, wondering if he should add fuel to the fire so that Conan would find out someone was dead as soon as possible.
"What's wrong, little brother?" Yoji Kuramoto saw Conan lowering his head in thought. He couldn't figure out what Conan was thinking, and he felt that he couldn't drag it on any longer. He glanced at the rope piled at the bottom of the stairs and at his feet.
, he asked, his attention already wandering, "What are you thinking about?"
Conan noticed Yoji Kuramoto peeking at the rope, and suddenly felt something bad. He immediately raised his hand, aimed the scope on the cover of the anesthesia needle watch at Kuramoto Yoji's forehead, and pressed the launch button.
There are enough doubts about this guy, so it would be better to just knock him down!
"Fuck you!"
Yoji Kuramoto was still thinking about how to quickly pick up the rope and strangle the kid in front of him when he was hit by a needle. He fell down the steps behind him in a daze. In the last second when he regained consciousness, what he thought of was...
It's over, he's screwed, this kid has no martial ethics!
Conan watched Yoji Kuramoto fall to the ground and breathed a sigh of relief. He saw a row of books exposed in the lower corner of one side of the wall. He quickly ran over, squatted down, and pushed the books to the room outside, "Brother Chi, this secret
The passage should connect Mr. Kuramoto’s room on the third floor and Miss Renzi’s room on the second floor. Mr. Kuramoto entered the secret passage before, maybe he wanted to harm Miss Renzi!”
A minute later, Conan pushed the book away, walked through the passage originally blocked by the book, arrived at Miss Renzi's room, and found the body hanging under the beam.
Two minutes later, Chi Feichi, who heard Conan confirm the situation, jumped off the second floor and asked Mao Lilan to call the police. He went up to the third floor from the main entrance of the villa and asked Conan to open the door for him.
Half an hour later, the police car drove to the door of the villa and stopped. Shancun Cao took the people out of the car and entered the villa.
On the third floor, Chi Feichi and Conan were watching the scene in the room.
Jun Makino, Tenjoyō, Maori Ran, Sonoko Suzuki and Eiyu Hondo were waiting at the door. Yoji Kuramoto was also tied up and put aside.
"Huh?" Yamamura Cao suddenly approached Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko and stared, "I remember you are..."
Suzuki Sonoko stared back with half-moon eyes. She almost forgot that this was in Gunma County, so it was not surprising to meet this confused police officer.
Yamamura Cao stood up, made a fist with his right hand, knocked it on his left palm, and said with a smile, "Xiaolan and Sonoko, right!"
Mao Lilan nodded, "Uh, yes."
"And me, police officer!" I said with a smile.
"Huh? I remember that you were the boy who was with Mr. Mori and the others when a man killed his girlfriend last time, right?" Yamamura Cao thought about it, and saw Eiyou nodded repeatedly and touched his hands with a serious expression.
Chin: "It's really strange to say that..."
Conan was startled when he reached the door, and looked up at Yamamura Cao.
That's right, last time our brother Yingyou also pestered the uncle to handle a commission and met with Officer Yamamura. Could it be that Officer Yamamura discovered something was wrong?
"The person who was with Mr. Mori and the others before was always his eldest disciple, Mr. Chi. But last time, Mr. Chi was away and it was you who was replaced. It's really strange." Yamamura Cao touched his chin and looked up at the hall Eiyu with a solemn look.
, "Mr. Mao Li abandoned Mr. Chi and wants to change his apprentice, right?"
"Huh?" Conan was speechless for a second.
He shouldn't have any hope for this confused police officer!
"No, it's not!" Yingyou waved his hands quickly, "Last time it was because..."
"Because Brother Fei Chi fell into the sea before and had respiratory diseases several times when the weather was cold in winter, so we didn't call him last time." Mao Lilan explained helpfully, while looking at Chi Fei Chi who walked to the door and looked outside, "
I have no intention of leaving Brother Fei Chi behind."
"So that's it!" Yamamura Cao suddenly realized. He turned around to see Chi Feichi and looked around expectantly. "So, where is Mr. Maori? I can hear Mr. Maori's famous reasoning again today. It's really exciting.
Woolen cloth!"
"The teacher didn't come," Chi Feichi said.
Among all the police officers, Yamamura Soo was the one who took the art of lying flat to the extreme without even losing face.
Yamamura Cao was disappointed for a moment, but soon his eyes lit up again, "What about Her Royal Highness?"
"Your Highness Princess?" I, Yingyou, looked curious.
"It refers to Brother Chi's sister Xiao Ai," Mao Lilan explained in a low voice. "He seems to think Xiao Ai can bring him good luck, just like the forest princess in folklore in this area."
Yamamura Cao was still looking around expectantly, "My grandma has told me since I was a child to respect everything in the forest. It is a gift from nature to mankind. I have followed it since I was a child. Your Highness the Princess will definitely bless me to solve this problem smoothly.
case!
"Sorry, she didn't come today either." Conan stared at Yamamura for half a month.
As a police officer, if you expect others to solve the case before you even inquire about the case at the scene, do you dare to be more ridiculous, Officer Yamamura!
Yamamura Cao was startled, lowered his head slumped, and sighed, "Yes, really..."
"As for the case..." Suzuki Sonoko twitched her lips and pointed at Kuramoto Yoji, who was tied up and leaning against the door, "It's been solved."
"Eh?" Yamamura Soo looked at Kuramoto Yoji, "Is it solved?"
Yoji Kuramoto: "..."
Seeing this police officer, he suddenly had the illusion that he could still be saved.
Chi Feichi saw Kuramoto Yoji dilly-dallying and reminded him, "Speak."
Yoji Kuramoto looked up and saw Chi Feichi's cold expression. He sweated a little. Thinking that all the evidence had been found, he said helplessly, "Officer, I surrender..."
Next, Yoji Kuramoto told how he discovered the secret passage, how he wanted to use the secret passage to create a secret room, how he was found guilty of peeking out of the window into the backyard garden when he returned to the room along the secret passage, and how he was discovered by Conan.
secret passage, and then fainted, even the motive for the murder was clearly explained.
According to him, it was because the composer Renzi asked him to match the guitar playing method, and he tried hard to cooperate. As a result, Renzi expressed dissatisfaction, said excessive words, and even dismissed the guitarist he admired.
They've all been slandered.
When he woke up, he found that Lunzi was already lying on the ground. However, he did not deny that he had murderous intentions. Otherwise, he would not have hidden the secret of the secret passage, let alone met Lunzi in the past.
He took the rope left by the brother in the tunnel when he killed his wife before, and also put on his own gloves.
"Well, well..." Yamamura Cao nodded repeatedly, "That is to say, because Conan broke into the secret passage, your method was discovered, and the body was discovered in advance at a time you did not expect. Then
You suddenly fainted again, and when you woke up, you found that Mr. Chi and Conan had found the gloves you wore when committing the crime in your room, right?"
"Yeah." Yoji Kuramoto looked at Conan, "I fainted at that time..."
"You were distracted and accidentally tripped and fell, hitting the back of your head on the stairs of the secret passage before fainting. Don't you remember?" Conan asked innocently, then turned to look at Chi Feichi, "
Brother Chi was sitting at the window and watching, but you didn't even notice, he was really absent-minded!"
"Yes, is that so..." Yoji Kuramoto was a little confused.
At that time, the child seemed to have raised his hand and made some movement. He didn't see it clearly, but he always felt that it was the child who knocked him down. But if he thought about it carefully, how could a child who was not a wizard make him suddenly faint?
Really distracted.
Could it be that he accidentally tripped and fell and fainted?
Forget it, the murder was exposed anyway, so it doesn't matter how he fell.
Yamamura Cao frowned and touched his chin, looking puzzled, "The person sleeping this time is actually the murderer..."
"Yeah, it's really strange," Hondo Eyou agreed. His eyes under his glasses glanced at Conan secretly. Before Conan looked at him, he looked away and looked at Yamamura Cao, "The police officer thinks so too, right?"
Conan: "..."
This kid...!
"Well..." Operation Yamamura said thoughtfully, "And the murderer honestly confessed the crime as soon as he woke up..."
Our hall Yingyou: "..."
No, no, no, the murderer is not important. What is important is that Kogoro Mori was "sleeping", Sonoko Suzuki was "sleeping", and the brat Conan was present at the scene.
Today, Kogoro Mori and Sonoko Suzuki are not with Conan. When Conan is facing the prisoner, the one who is sleeping is the prisoner. Isn't it worthy of suspicion?
Yamamura Cao glanced at the group of people with a serious look, "I said... you didn't do anything to torture yourself before the police came, right?"
