Chapter 271 The happiness of the 'old lady'

In the end, Haihara Ai still ate those dinners without "computer accessories".

At the dinner table, Mamiya Mitsuru told a story about a servant who starved to death in a nearby forest, and asked the three little animals to immediately take the initiative to collect bread to prevent Conan from starving to skin and bones.

After dinner, Mamiya Mitsuru took all the servants in the castle to look for Conan. However, there was no trace of Conan in the castle, in the burnt tower, or in the courtyard.

Ayumi: "Conan, please stop hiding!"

Mitsuhiko: "It's our fault! Conan!"

Genta: "Conan!"

Just now, after discussion, the three little ones came to a very "smart" conclusion about Conan's disappearance.

That is, Conan was originally going to play a hide-and-seek game with the three little ones, but the three little ones didn't even find anyone, so they ran off to eat very unceremoniously.

Now that Conan was angry, he hid his anger in a corner and never came out again.

Of course, Ai Haibara and Dr. Ali, who know Conan's true identity, would not think so.

"Doctor, Edogawa Conan has disappeared for several hours and has not been contacted. It is very likely that something has happened..."

"Maybe the deceased this time is himself..."

Haibara Ai, who has followed Conan on several outings and has vaguely summarized some rules, judged this way.

Haibara Ai's cold judgment made Dr. Ali panic a little, and he regarded Haibara Ai, who was much younger than him both physically and mentally, as his backbone.

"Then what should we do now?" Dr. Ali bent down and asked quietly.

Huihara Ai analyzed: "This family feels a little abnormal, so we can't trust their words easily."

"We have children here and it is not convenient to conduct an investigation. It is best to contact the police first and then let the police conduct a thorough search here..."

Dr. A Li nodded reluctantly, and then asked: "What about Mr. Qin Zhibo? Can we trust him?"

Regarding the candidate mentioned by Dr. A Li, Haihara Ai held his head and thought for a few seconds, then said quietly: "Maybe I can believe it..."

"But where are they now?"

...

At the same time, Matsumoto Ryohei stood on a chair in the showroom on the second floor, turned the hour and minute hands to 12:00, and the trap door on the wall beside him immediately flipped open.

There is darkness behind the trap door, reminding investigators who enter that they need to bring their own lighting.

"I'll go get a lantern..."

Just as Matsumoto Ryohei was about to walk away, Qin Zhibo behind him took out a nuclear lighter and said, "No, I have a fire here."

Under the light provided by the nuclear lighter, two long oblique shadows walked straight down the stairs.

"How do you know the secret passage in this castle?"

As the two walked, Qin Zhibo asked.

Ryohei Matsumoto recalled it and said: "When I was a child, my father often took me to this castle as a guest, and I discovered some secret passages here every time I went back and forth."

"Oh..." Qin Zhibo nodded thoughtfully, "Then do you know what secret treasure is hidden in this castle?"

Matsumoto Ryohei was startled for a moment, then smiled slightly and said: "If there is really any secret treasure that can be taken away, wouldn't I just take it away secretly myself?"

"Oh, that's right..." Qin Zhibo nodded.

As we walked, the light from the nuclear lighter gradually illuminated a "black convex island" on the stone ground.

Qin Zhibo stepped forward in two steps, followed closely by Matsumoto Ryohei, and saw clearly the object lying on the ground.

This is a corpse.

No matter from the size or the degree of decomposition of the body, it is not Conan.

The victim was not Conan, Qin Zhibo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

——

When the corpse investigation was completed, Qin Zhibo received a series of system prompts.

Masashiro Mamiya...

Isn't that the one?

Qin Zhibo suddenly remembered the old lady of the Mamiya family he had just seen at the dinner table, who was the wife of Mr. Mamiya. Her name was Masuyo Mamiya.

While eating, Qin Zhibo tried his best to control his head from turning towards that long face like an old witch, because it was too unappetizing.

If this dead person is Masuyo Mamiya, then who is that old lady in the wheelchair?

While Qin Zhibo was thinking, Matsumoto Ryohei, who was standing aside, moved his ears and whispered: "Someone is coming."

The two quickly walked to the dark corner beside the steps. Qin Zhibo gently turned on the nuclear lighter, and the two hid in the darkness.

In the dark secret passage, a human silhouette can be vaguely seen walking down the steps.

Qin Zhibo immediately turned on his night vision goggles and saw the person coming clearly in the dark environment.

It is the living "Mamiya Masuyo"!

At this time, Mamiya Masashiro relied on his eyes that had adapted to the darkness and his experience in moving in secret passages for many years. He was able to move freely in the dark secret passages even without the help of a light source.

After dinner, Masuyo Mamiya, who was full, rested in the room for a while before continuing into the secret passage to complete his unfinished business.

Over the years, in order to maintain the persona of the old lady with a small stomach, her stomach has shrunk due to hunger.

However, as the former housekeeper of the Blue Castle, she still can't forget the food cooked by Matsumoto Ryohei, so she made an exception and ate more today.

More than ten years ago, she mustered up the courage to confess her love to Matsumoto Ryohei, but was rejected.

But after so many years, she still has not forgotten the elegant Matsumoto Ryohei in her heart.

Over the years, she has been asking about Matsumoto Ryohei intentionally or unintentionally, and she knows that since Matsumoto Ryohei's father disappeared, Matsumoto Ryohei himself has also fallen into despair.

The former noble son not only worked as a housekeeper in other people's homes, but he has not yet married a wife.

When I get the treasure hidden in this house, I will change my appearance, and then...

Thinking in his mind, Masuyo Mamiya's old face turned red.

But then, Masuyo Mamiya's eyes became cold and stern again, and he carried the dead bones on the ground on his shoulders.

Ever since she starved the real Masuyo Mamiya to death in a secret passage, she has never moved the body again.

But I didn't expect to be bumped into by that elementary school student wearing glasses today.

In this case, the primary school student must not be left behind, and the body must be disposed of as soon as possible.

Otherwise, when the police come and search these things, everything will be in trouble...

No one can stop Liangping and I from being happy!
