After hearing the pretty face's unreserved confession, Hattori Heiji's face was shocked and he quickly ran to the window where Tokura Sakiya appeared at that time.
He reached out and touched the glass on the top grille of the window. The surface was indeed convex, like a magnifying glass.
A convex mirror will invert the image, that is, the picture of falling will become the picture of rising upward.
In other words, when everyone saw Torakura Gakuya disappearing upwards, he should actually be falling downwards.
But there was no head or anything like that found on the balcony at that time, and there was nothing in the jar either.
Hattori Heiji opened the floor-to-ceiling window again and entered the balcony. He searched carefully among the bottles and cans placed on the balcony, but still did not find the so-called canned human head.
Hattori Heiji returned to the restaurant room, raised his chin, and sorted out the chaotic thoughts in his mind with a serious face.
If what the pretty boy said is true, then the person who assisted Tokura Kakuya in committing the crime should be the maid.
But when Tokura Yuya appeared in the restaurant, the maid did not run to the window and use her body to cover the falling head.
One of the flaws of this technique is that only the upper glass is a convex mirror, and the lower part is normal glass, and the falling head can still be seen.
That's why the pretty boy was the first to get up and run to block it with his body...
After all, the plan mentioned by this pretty boy may not be completely true, and maybe there is something hidden...
While Hattori Heiji was thinking, several people from the Tokura family sitting at the dining table also started to tear up.
Torakura Sannan stood up and asked excitedly: "You said Xiaoguang is the biological daughter of the eldest brother, is this true?"
The pretty boy drooped his head and responded listlessly, "That's what it says in the plan..."
The girl with glasses walked up to the pretty boy and said with an unhappy expression: "You actually want to get back the inheritance by getting back together with me after your eldest sister's death. It seems like I've really been underestimated..."
The pretty boy's shoulders trembled, and he raised his head to look at the girl with glasses, "Na, I..."
Just as he was about to open his mouth to explain, the girl with glasses stopped him.
"Shut up!"
"Although I am disgusted with the fact that eldest sister snatched you away, eldest sister is sincere to you, and yet you treat her like this..."
"In the final analysis, you are just an unfamiliar dog."
After saying that, the bespectacled woman gave him a look of disdain, then turned around and left.
The pretty boy looked at the bespectacled girl leaving him, tears bursting from his eyes.
This was not because he was repenting of his actions of not saving people despite knowing the murder plan, but because he was completely dumped and had nothing to do with the inheritance of the Torakura family.
Originally, when he saw the murder plan in the morning, he wanted to execute it himself.
But then I thought about it, the eldest sister had already invited the famous detective Qin Zhibo to take charge, so there was no need for her to kill people and challenge the famous detective's wisdom.
The pretty boy himself is also on the killing list. As long as he waits until it is his turn in the end and kills the maid, no one can say anything.
Then, wouldn't it be nice if he doesn't have to bear any culpability and can just reap the benefits?
But now this plan obviously doesn't work anymore.
The pretty boy's mouth was slightly open, his eyes were dull, and he was looking straight ahead with a stupid expression.
Suddenly, the air in the room twitched strangely.
A tall dark figure appeared behind Hattori Heiji in the blink of an eye, standing between the window sill and the balcony.
Hattori Heiji was thinking about the case with his chin raised, and did not notice anything strange behind him.
When the other members of the Tokura family in the restaurant saw the strange figure that suddenly appeared, they all showed shocked expressions, their bodies trembled, and they subconsciously shrank back.
Only then did Hattori Heiji notice that the expressions of the people in the room were a little strange. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
The pretty boy raised his hand tremblingly and pointed behind Hattori Heiji.
Only then did Hattori Heiji realize that there was someone behind him. The skin on his back trembled and he quickly looked back.
In his limited field of vision, he saw a cold and serious face under the black hood.
Although the face was criss-crossed with grooves and was too pale to be human, the edges and corners were very similar to Torakura Sakuya.
What!
Hattori Heiji was shocked and was about to react, but the other party suddenly waved his hand and hit Hattori Heiji on the head with his black cloak.
Hattori Heiji was slapped and flew several meters away, falling heavily to the ground in a parabola.
Only then did other people in the restaurant think of escaping, and fled towards the door one after another.
But as soon as Xiao Bailian stood up from the seat, the figure suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Bailian.
"ah……"
The young boy was so frightened that he screamed when he saw the pale old face that suddenly flashed before his eyes.
The next moment, the opponent waved his palm, and the sharp nails on his fingertips sliced the pretty face's throat like a blade.
The pretty boy only felt a sweetness in his throat, a silky pain in his neck, and blood was already flowing from his Adam's apple.
He subconsciously covered his throat, but bright red blood continued to flow from between his fingers.
Along with it, the beauty's vitality also passed away.
He fell to the ground and struggled in pain, his body twitching like a fish out of water.
The spreading blood dyed the white suit red, and a bright red flower bloomed under the pretty boy's body.
The owner of that figure just looked at all this with an expressionless face, letting the blood flow from his feet.
Click!
At this moment, the sound of broken glass products suddenly came from the door of the restaurant.
It turned out that Maid Xiaoguang had come over at some point and was standing at the door staring blankly at this horrifying scene.
The tray and coffee in her hands fell to the ground unconsciously, making a splintered sound.
The old face suddenly turned to the maid, a pair of gray-white pupils were slightly cloudy, but there was more of a cold and chilling aura.
Only then did Maid Xiaoguang think of running for her life, and turned around to flee.
But the figure flashed again like a ghost and came behind Xiaoguang.
Five emaciated fingers grasped Xiaoguang's white wrist, stopping Xiaoguang's escape.
"ah--!"
Xiaoguang's screams echoed in the corridor, and she desperately twisted her body to break free.
But the strength of that figure was even more astonishing, and it directly captured Xiaoguang in its arms.
He ran to the balcony, jumped up, and the bat wings hidden under his cloak suddenly spread out and flew into the distance.
…
When Qin Zhibo and Conan rushed back to the bungalow, they saw all the Yincang family standing at the door of the bungalow tremblingly.
After asking, I learned that a strange man suddenly appeared in the restaurant just now, scaring everyone so much that they didn't dare to stay in the house.
"Does that weirdo have an old face and wear a black cloak?"
"Hmm..." Several people nodded.
Qin Zhibo and Conan looked at each other and immediately entered the bungalow.
The two returned to the restaurant and saw the pretty boy lying in a pool of blood.
Because he had already seen the corpse investigation point, Qin Zhibo did not go up to check.
Conan was still responsible, walked into the pool of blood, and checked the pulse and pupils.
"Already dead..."
Conan glanced at the injury on the pretty boy's neck again. It was caused by a sharp instrument piercing the main artery in the neck, resulting in excessive blood loss.
However, there was no suspected murder weapon around.
Qin Zhibo came to the window sill and helped Hattori Heiji, who had fainted, up.
Conan also ran over at this time and shouted to Hattori Heiji, "Hattori! Hattori!"
As his good friend called him, Hattori Heiji opened his eyes slightly and saw that familiar little face.
"Kudo..."
Hattori Heiji's thoughts paused for a few seconds before he suddenly recalled what had just happened.
"There was a weirdo who rushed in just now, and he slapped me away..."
When he thought of that scene, Hattori Heiji felt his cheeks burning and his head felt dizzy.
Qin Zhibo also knew that the person Hattori Heiji was talking about was the person he saw on the cliff just now.
That "Tatsukura Oya".
At this moment, a siren sounded outside the bungalow.
Conan stood up and ran to the window sill to take a look, then turned back and said: "It's Officer Otaki and the others are back..."
After going through so much, the police finally arrived too late.
However, Qin Zhibo knew that even if the police came, this matter would not be able to end completely.
I still have main tasks to complete.
"You should have a good rest here."
Qin Zhibo helped Hattori Heiji sit aside and then stood up and walked out the door.
Conan immediately understood and followed obediently.
Looking at the two people leaving, Hattori Heiji struggled to move his body and asked: "Hey... where are you going?"
Qin Zhibo came to the door, stopped, turned his face sideways, and said: "The next area is not an area that ordinary detectives can touch..."
"What did you say?"
A trace of doubt flashed across Hattori Heiji's slightly narrowed eyes, and he stood up and wanted to catch up.
But the short Conan suddenly raised his hand and fired an anesthetic needle, hitting Hattori Heiji in the forehead.
Suddenly, Hattori Heiji felt everything around him start to spin. In order to maintain his body balance, his hands and feet began to "dance" unconsciously.
Two seconds later, he sat on the ground again.
…
Coming out of the back door of the bungalow, Qin Zhibo and Conan went straight to the back mountain.
"Why did you shoot Hattori unconscious just now?"
"ah?"
As Conan ran, he glanced at Qin Zhibo next to him, and replied with droopy half-moon eyes: "If I don't knock him out, he will definitely chase him with his character..."
"I'm saying that if the other party doesn't cooperate later, your anesthesia needle may be useful."
"Ah, really? I didn't expect that much..."
In order to protect the worldview of his gay friends, Conan also tried his best.
Qin Zhibo also weighed it in his mind. Although Conan's anesthesia needle is a very powerful prop, it is probably still too powerful to deal with a real vampire.
Judging from the current contact situation, vampires have physical functions that far exceed those of ordinary people, whether it is speed or strength.
There is also the ability to generate bat-winged flight.
On the contrary, this vampire did not reflect the bloodthirsty instinct of vampires that has been repeatedly emphasized in many literary works.
Judging from the other party's behavior, it seems that he is still rational and should be the type who can communicate.
Of course, if communication fails, Qin Zhibo doesn't mind physically passing him by.
Qin Zhibo and Conan ran out of the backyard of the Yincang family house and walked along a winding path in the back mountain until they found a cemetery in the valley of the back mountain.
There are dozens of tombstones erected in the cemetery. Some of the tombstones are stone monuments, while others are simple wooden monuments.
At the edge of the cemetery, there are more than a dozen large and thick wooden sticks erected.
Conan observed all this with the light of a flashlight, the shock in his eyes undisguised.
"This is……"
Qin Zhibo said calmly: "This should be the place where the legendary 'Piercing Daimyo' executed his younger brother and his gang members."
Conan walked to one of the wooden sticks and reached out to touch it.
Due to the passage of time, the wooden sticks have completely turned black, and they have become slippery and sticky due to rain.
But even so, if you put your nose up and smell it carefully, you can still smell the faint smell of blood.
The legend turned out to be true...
Conan glanced at the wooden sticks. Each stick here represented a human life.
"It should be over here."
Qin Zhibo had already arrived at the other side of the cemetery and continued walking into the mountain.
Conan hurriedly chased after him and asked, "Is that person Tokura Sakuya?"
"He wanted to take revenge on the person who killed his fiancée two years ago, so he used his vampire ability..."
"No."
Before Conan could finish speaking, Qin Zhibo gave a negative answer.
"The man we saw on the cliff was actually..."
…
In the cave, a kerosene lamp slowly lit up, dispelling the surrounding darkness.
Maid Xiaoguang huddled tremblingly on the side of the cave wall, her back pressed tightly against the cold and wet stone wall, and her originally neat maid uniform was stained.
And in her frightened pupils, a tall black figure stood next to the kerosene lamp on the desk.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you..."
The old voice echoed in this deep space, adding a bit of coolness.
Such comfort reached Xiaoguang's ears, but it seemed like a threat.
"Who are you?" Xiaoguang asked tremblingly.
The figure was silent for a long time and did not answer directly. Instead, he raised his hand and pointed to a coffin in the corner and said in a deep voice.
"Go and see your biological father, he is there..."
"Biological father?" Xiaoguang asked in confusion.
As long as she can remember, her mother has said that her biological father had an accident and died before she was born.
Although she has never seen her father's tomb, her mother will not lie to her.
However, Xiaoguang did not dare to refute now and could only crawl to the coffin tremblingly.
When she slowly pushed open the coffin lid, she saw a man lying peacefully inside the coffin.
That face was clearly that of one of the people the maid knew most, Torakura Sakuya!
"Old, Master!"
Xiaoguang thought that the master he was serving fell asleep in the coffin as usual, so he subconsciously grabbed Tokura Sakiya's shoulder.
However, this force actually moved the head away from the neck where it was originally connected.
Seeing this horrifying scene of corpses being separated, Xiaoguang was immediately frightened and screamed.
"ah--!"
The scream lasted for two seconds. Driven by the survival instinct, Xiaoguang stood up and was about to run away, but the man grabbed his wrist.
"You murderer! Let me go!"
Xiaoguang struggled desperately, and the hairpin on his head was thrown away, but he could not free himself at all.
The figure never spoke, but he didn't let go of Xiaoguang's hand.
At this moment, another man's voice came from the cave passage.
"Miss Xiaoguang, you misunderstood..."
"He can't be the murderer of Tokura Sakuya, because he is the legendary 'Piercing Daimyo'."
