Chapter 614: Scarlet Keisuke who hides a secret

 A few hours later, Fujiwara Yuu woke up from a coma and found that it was still dark outside. He was very lucky that he had not been attacked by the murderer, otherwise he would have been unable to fight back.

He activated the wind power again, and heard the exchanges between Kifune Yehei and Minato Aoko coming from the direction of the kitchen. It seemed that the employees of the villa had all gotten up earlier.

——"I'm sorry, Miss Qingzi, I overslept today!"

——"It's okay. Can you help me go outside and check the situation? The fire can't be lit again."

——"Okay, eh? Where is the boss?"

——"He just went to the lounge."

Fujiwara Yu rubbed his ears. It seems that he should pay attention to the frequency when using the power of wind in the future. Frequent and uninterrupted use will cause coma.

After briefly washing up, he did not go directly to the restaurant, but walked to the lounge. He wanted to ask Tohru Hiragawa something. This villa may not be related to the death of Umitani Asaka. As the current manager, he must have a lot of respect for the previous owner.

things are understood.

When Fujiwara Yu walked in, he found that his boss was no longer inside, but what surprised him was that Hiiro Keisuke was standing in a daze in front of the photo frame on the wall. His expression looked... as if he was nostalgic.

Why does Fei Se show such an expression? Could it be that he is related to the Villa?

"Feise, what are you looking at?"

Scarlet Keisuke, who was lost in memories, was frightened by the sudden voice and trembled. He continued to maintain an expressionless poker face, turned to look at Sosuke Takaji who appeared behind him, and left in a hurry without saying anything:

"……nothing."

Fujiwara Yu raised his eyebrows. He walked to the wall and looked at the signboards in the photo frames. Some of them seemed to be photos of staff and regular customers. If he remembered correctly, Hiragawa Toru said that this place used to be a hotel.

So the photo at the top should be of the hotel owner and hotel employees.

His familiar appearance does not seem to appear in the picture. Could it be that I am overthinking it?

Not getting any useful clues, Fujiwara Yu had no choice but to go to the room to wake up Edogawa Conan and Maori Ran who were still sleeping, wait for them to finish washing, and then go to the restaurant to eat together.

No one had much appetite for the simple Western-style breakfast. Only Fujiwara Yu and Edogawa Conan quickly swallowed their breakfast. After all, reasoning is a relatively mental task. If you are not full, you will not be able to concentrate.

The scarlet Keisuke who was holding the coffee noticed the empty seat, hesitated for a moment, and then looked at Kifune Yehei and asked:

"Kibune, why isn't Mr. Nigami here?"

"Huh? Ah, I called him, but there was a 'Do Not Disturb' sign on the door, so he should still be sleeping. I didn't knock on the door to call him to eat." Kifune Yehei replied.

.

Fujiwara Yu couldn't help but frown when he heard this. He put down his coffee cup and walked directly to Futami Ikuo's room, wanting to confirm whether he was really sleeping.

He stood at the door and quietly activated the power of the wind. Although he could not accurately locate the person inside the room through the door, he could still amplify the sounds inside as much as possible.

No snoring, no breathing? Oops!

Fujiwara Yuu unscrewed the door handle without hesitation. The door was indeed unlocked, but after entering the room, the scene inside surprised him - because there was no one inside, and Ikami Futami was not in the room at all.

What happened? Where did the people go?

At this moment, Mao Lilan's sharp shouting came from the direction of the restaurant.

Fujiwara Yuu ignored his thoughts and returned directly to the restaurant. Then he saw Mao Lilan with blood on his back. He frowned and stepped forward and asked aloud:

"What happened? Miss Mori, are you injured?"

"Ah... No, I don't feel any pain anywhere in my body." Mao Lilan shook his head in confusion.

Fujiwara Yu approached the dining chair where Mao Lilan had been sitting, and after careful inspection, he found that the back of the chair was stained with a lot of blood. He hesitated because the back of the chair was burgundy, so maybe she sat down without noticing.

But where does this blood come from? From the smell, it looks very much like human blood.

"Sister Xiaolan, what's wrong?!" Conan, who ran in from outside, looked at Mao Lilan anxiously and asked.

Mao Lilan tried her best to pull the corner of her mouth. She was in a panic now. Could it be that she was really bitten by a vampire? Could this blood be someone I hurt...could it be Mr. Ershen who disappeared.

She looked down at Conan and shook her head slightly:

"I'm fine, I...go back to the room and change clothes."

Mao Lilan hurried back to the room. She felt vaguely strange. When she was sitting in her seat, she leaned against the back of the chair and did not feel any wetness on it.

But why is there blood on my back? Where did the blood come from?

She stretched out her hand to unscrew the door handle, and just as she was about to step in, the large amount of blood on the floor frightened her and took two steps back. For fear of being misunderstood, she quickly turned around and ran to the restaurant, shouting loudly:

"Mr. Takaji! There's something wrong with my room!"

"What's wrong?"

"There was a lot of blood on the floor, which was obviously not there when I went out!"

"What did you say?!"

Everyone quickly ran towards Mao Lilan's room. Fujiwara Yu jumped over the blood stains on the floor at the door. When he looked to the side, he saw Futami Ikuo leaning against the corner, with no vital signs.

Moreover, the same bite mark appeared on his neck.

"C-could this really be done by a vampire?"

"How is it possible? There are no vampires in this world!"

Fujiwara Yuu leaned over to Nigami Ikuo's body with a sullen face. After careful inspection, he found that his death method was exactly the same as Umitani Asaka's. Both were strangled to death and then drained of blood by the murderer.

So, when did the murderer arrange all this? Was it while they were dining?

"Brother Takaji, can you confirm the time of death?" Edogawa Conan stepped forward and asked.

"Judging from the degree of rigor mortis, the blood in the body was drained by the murderer between 23:00 last night and 2:00 this morning. Preliminary autopsy cannot accurately judge."

Edogawa Conan's face was solemn, and he couldn't help but sigh:

"Hey, everyone is in the room at this time, so we still can't narrow it down."

"If you can't rule it out, just ask."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Hoshiki Keisuke, he obviously knew the two victims, but I don't think he is the murderer." Fujiwara Yu glanced at Hoshiki standing at the door, and whispered in Conan's ear.

"Then after they leave, we will take him alone to question him."

The two were carrying the body of Ergami Ikuo to the bed, and asked Mao Lilan to take all the luggage to Takaji Sousuke's room. There was so much blood here and the body was left alone. She was 100% unwilling to enter.

After cleaning up these little things, Fujiwara Yu put his hand directly on Hoshiki Keisuke's shoulder and said bluntly:

"Mr. Scarlet, let's talk?"

Scarlet Jingsuke was silent for a while. He did not refuse this time, and even smiled slightly:

"...Okay, let's go to the lounge."

"no problem."
