"First he attacked the garden, and then almost killed Chikako... Could this death coffin be a murderous maniac?"
"Have any of you disturbed any ancient tombs?"
"It's not necessarily just other people who are disturbing it, it's attacking humans indiscriminately!"
"That's right, otherwise why would the suspension bridge be burned down..."
Because of the "bandage", everyone's panic quickly became unified in the direction of "Death's coffin harms people". Probably in their eyes, the weird guy with the bandage is equivalent to the "ghost" of the Death's coffin.
Eminem also didn't emphasize that "it's just a legend that the Death's coffin turns people into mummies in the illustrated book" - this kind of statement is like saying to someone before time travel that "there are no ghosts in the world."
Although it is correct, but... if people don't believe it, there is nothing you can do, especially when there is a "case" in front of you!
"Everyone should not sleep tonight. Let's go to Jiantian City together tomorrow." Hiroki suggested.
If the suspension bridge hadn't been burned, they even thought they could move tonight.
However, after half a night's work, it was almost twelve o'clock and everyone was sleepy, so Ayako said, "I'll make coffee for everyone."
Upon seeing this, Eminem followed him: "I'll accompany you. It's better not to be alone at this time."
Conan also followed quietly at this time...
Eminem originally thought it was instant coffee, but he found out that it was a grinding coffee machine that he didn't know how to operate. So he washed the cup and took the opportunity to ask: "Ayako-san, the Atsuko-san everyone mentioned before is..."
Conan, who had followed quietly, secretly praised Eminem - you know a lot!
"It was another member of our film club. Two years ago, when he was about to graduate, he committed suicide by jumping into a river... Although he was rescued, his head was injured due to the strong water in the river. Even if he found an expert on superpowers, he could not
I still haven't woken up yet." Ayako sighed and said a little depressed.
"So... Miss Atsuko, when she was in the film club, she was also a screenwriter, right?" Eminem suddenly asked keenly.
"Eh? Yes...what's wrong?" Ayako was a little surprised and didn't understand how Eminem knew.
"Nothing." Eminem changed the topic.
"Ah, there's no milk here. I'll go to the storage room next door..."
"I'll go...you stay here." The second half of Eminem's words was addressed to Ivysaur and Coconut Egg Tree.
Although he roughly guessed the "murderer's" motive, he still wanted to be on the safe side and let them accompany Miss Ayako.
Conan outside the door quickly followed Eminem after he came out and said, "What did you find?"
"What did you find?" Eminem still didn't understand.
"How do you know that Miss Atsuko is also a screenwriter?" Conan thought for a long time, but didn't understand the logic of this.
Could it be that...this guy understands reasoning better than me?
So Conan asked, both curiously and unconvinced.
As Eminem found the milk packaged in the carton, he said matter-of-factly: "Isn't the Chikako who was killed the screenwriter?"
"Huh? So?" Conan still didn't understand the logic.
"Of these screenwriters, writers, etc., ten of them were killed, nine of them were because of plagiarism and copyright infringement, and eight of them were killed by their apprentices... Chikako had no apprentices, and the others were not screenwriters, so obviously Atsuko
It's a screenwriter! She must have copied Atsuko's work! Isn't your father also a writer? You should understand..."
Although Eminem has forgotten the details of every episode, the causes of death of writers and screenwriters are generally the same.
Conan:……
Why can writers and screenwriters only die doing this kind of thing? And...why does my father understand!
"Huh? Conan, your father is also a writer?"
As soon as Eminem and Conan came out of the storage room, they happened to meet Xiaolan coming upstairs. At this time, Xiaolan looked at Conan doubtfully.
Conan immediately panicked and said: "What! Brother Eminem, you remembered it wrong again... Brother Shinichi's father is obviously a writer! Ha, haha..."
Fortunately, Xiaolan didn't pay too much attention and just asked curiously: "Which writer or screenwriter are you talking about?"
"Oh, I say in the future, if you encounter writers and screenwriters being killed, if there are apprentices or assistants at the scene, just arrest them directly. You will basically not make the wrong arrest!" Eminem said very confidently.
Conan:……
You guys look down on reasoning, right? What do you call a reason?
"Especially mystery novelists!" Eminem added.
When Conan heard this, he rolled his eyes at him angrily.
Seeing that Xiaolan still looked confused, Conan was afraid that she would ask again, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "Sister Xiaolan, why did you come up here?"
"I'm here to get something for Yuanzi." Xiaolan said vaguely.
As for what it is, boys shouldn’t ask too much.
At this time, Ayako had also poured the coffee. Conan rolled his eyes and said immediately: "Toilet! I need to go to the toilet... Sister Xiaolan, can you help Ayako sister take it down first? Brother Eminem, come and accompany me to the toilet...
"
"Okay...be careful." Xiaolan didn't lecture him this time, after all, he couldn't act alone now.
As he said that, Conan had already pulled Ammu into his and Xiaolan's room...
Eminem also knew that he definitely wanted to investigate something, so he didn't refuse. He just came in and asked: "Eh? Are you in the same room as Xiaolan?"
Conan pretended not to hear. After Ayako and Xiaolan left, Conan quietly opened the door and whispered, "Let's go to Chikako's room and have a look."
Eminem did not refuse, and Chikako's room was not locked at this time. When she opened the door, there was a gust of cold wind - the sound of the glass breaking before came from Chikako's place.
If we only make a logical judgment, the "mummy" broke the glass and came in and took Chikako away...
Conan looked close to the broken window and said, "Sure enough... it looks like it was broken from the outside!"
Everyone had come to confirm before that the glass in Chikako's room was broken, but before Conan had time to come in and observe more, he was led away by Xiaolan.
slim Shady:???
"What's wrong with breaking it outside?" Eminem didn't understand what Conan meant either.
The other party broke in. Isn't it normal to break the glass from the outside?
"No, if it was really the work of Death's Coffin, the ghost-type Pokémon can directly become invisible and pass through the wall. There is no need to break the glass when entering. To hypnotize Chikako, after kidnapping Chikako, Chikako cannot get out, so she needs to break it.
Glass!" Conan said very reasonably.
slim Shady:……
As expected of a detective, he easily thought of things I didn't expect...
"But this is very strange. Why did he pass by the gate after kidnapping Chikako? It was as if he wanted to show us specifically, but then he just simply ran away..." Conan muttered in confusion.
Indeed, the windows on Chikako's side are on the south side, and the villa door is on the north side. If you want to go to the nearby mountains and forests, you don't have to pass by the main entrance at all.
If it was to harvest "fear", the other party didn't do anything special after that. They just ran away and threw Chikako into a mountain stream.
"It must be for alibi... In other words, the murderer is among those three people." Eminem said matter-of-factly.
What's there to hesitate about?
"It can indeed be explained this way, but it's not necessarily...and why are there three people? There are obviously four people..."
Conan looked at Eminem with an expression like "You are making lax reasoning again."
"Four? It can't be Miss Ayako! She is Sonoko's sister." Eminem said matter-of-factly.
Conan was very disdainful of Eminem's blatant "favoritism"...
