Saturday, July 24, noon, in the woods next to a railroad near Senbonhama, Numazu City.

Sonoko, Ran, and Masahiko Michiwaki found Conan in the crowd of onlookers at the scene of the murder. In the open space in the crowd, the Yokozo Police Department in Shizuoka Prefecture was making a summary, the deceased was an unidentified young woman, about 24 years old, the cause of death was a knife wound in the abdomen, hemorrhage and death, the time of death was tentatively set to be the time of the fireworks display last night.

"That's where we walked last night, didn't we?" asked the garden, scared.

"Fool, you can't be okay with the garden. Lan smiled and comforted.

"But you see, my hair is also brown, and there's no guarantee that it won't be me next. Yuan Zi said loudly with some excitement, "No, I don't want to die in this kind of place, and there are still many things I want to do that I haven't done!"

"Don't worry," Michiwaki Masahiko patted Sonoko on the shoulder, "I'll protect you while you're here." Then he smiled, "It seems that it would be better to change the location of dinner." ”

"And don't bring a camera. Lan hurriedly said.

"Of course you don't have to. Michiwaki Masahiko smiled and continued, "Then, I'll pick you up at seven o'clock in the evening, and you'll be waiting for me at the door of the hotel." ”

"Well, okay. Yuan Zi smiled.

"Then I'll go first. Masahiko Michiwaki said, and then left.

At this time, the Henggou Police Department came over with a smile on his face, "Isn't this Miss Lan and Miss Yuanzi?"

"Yes, police department, let's come to the beach to play. Lan said.

"So are the Maori detectives coming along?" asked the Henggou Police Department.

"My dad is on Awami Island now. Lan said.

"That's right. The Henggou Police Department said, and then said to the garden, "By the way, Miss Yuanzi, you also saw what happened here just now, to be honest, this should be a serial murder incident......"

"Serial killings!" the three people in the garden were taken aback.

"Yes, and the objects are all tea-haired girls like Miss Yuanzi, you see," the Henggou Police Department asked, "Do you want us to send you home?"

"This," Sonoko thought about it, thought of the Michiwaki Masahiko she had met, thought of the date in the evening, and said firmly, "No need." ”

"Really, no," the Henggou Police Department asked.

"Not really. Yuan Zi smiled.

The Henggou Police Department said: "Okay, if there is anything, please contact our police immediately." ”

"We will. The garden said.

When the Henggou Police Department left, Lan asked, "Yuanzi, are we really not going back?"

"It's okay, it's okay," Sonoko smiled, "With you, with Mr. Michiwaki, it's definitely fine." ”

"Don't you call me dad, and Yamazaki and Midaiko?" Lan asked.

"No, no, your father will be in charge of everything then. Sonoko said, "Yamazaki and Midaiko are here, and the yacht may scare him." And then he said, "Alright, let's go to dinner." ”……

On the other side, Yubu Izu Mitsu Amusement Park.

After Midiko and Yamazaki had breakfast and lunch, they went to the haunted house in the amusement park, then went to the killer whale show in the aquarium, changed into a full-body swimming suit, brought underwater glasses and a respirator, acted as an assistant to the keeper, played with the two killer whales until the afternoon, and returned to Fujikawa Airport after the show, and took a helicopter back to Rice Flower Town. ……

On the other side, the Sea House Lodge.

Because the garden was a little scared, the three of them did not go out, and played chess and cards while watching TV in the room, until the time was almost up, and they changed their clothes and went to the door.

After waiting for a while, it began to rain in the sky, and the garden muttered, "Come quickly, Mr. Michiwaki." ”

Lan smiled: "Don't worry, don't worry, heroes are always the last to appear." ”

Yuan Zi blushed a little and said, "Really, don't make fun of me like that." ”

At this time, the black-skinned waiter came and put a handful of rainwater at the foot of the garden, and left. They didn't look at the three of them in the garden, and they didn't say a word.

"Is this for us?" asked the gardener, puzzled.

"Maybe that person is interesting to Sister Yuanzi. Conan laughed.

"Yes, Garden, it's really popular. Lan laughed.

Yuan Zi said angrily: "I don't want it, such a gloomy boy." ”

"That's right, there is already Mr. Michiwaki in the garden. Lan laughed.

Yuan Zi blushed and said, "I hate it, Lan, I'll be embarrassed." Then he suddenly realized that he didn't have his wallet, and immediately fled under the pretext of going back to his room to get his wallet.

"Heh, heh. After Lan smiled, he held his chin and said to himself, "I still think that the boy with glasses just now has seen him somewhere." ”

"Isn't it in this hotel?" asked Conan.

"No, somewhere else. Lan said affirmatively.

"Somewhere else?" asked Conan, "where is it, Sister Lan." ”

"Where?" Lan said after a moment's thought, "I can't remember." Then he felt that the garden had taken too long to get his wallet, so he decided to go back to his room and have a look. ……

On the other side, the garden room.

As soon as the garden opened the door, before the light was turned on, a person covered his mouth, and after struggling, he was still pulled into the room and pressed to the ground, and then through the faint reflection, he found that the man seemed to have a knife in his hand, so he struggled even harder, seeing that the knife seemed to be stabbing at himself, there was a sound of the door being slammed outside, and at the same time there was a shout from Lan, and the man immediately let go of himself and ran to the balcony and then disappeared.

At this time, Lanla opened the door and entered the room, and the garden clutched her throat and coughed, "Yes, someone ......" and pointed to the balcony.

"What!" Conan immediately ran to the balcony, only to find it pitch black outside, with no one in sight.

"It's horrible. The garden gasped and cried.

"Alright, alright, it's okay. Lan comforted.

"Sister Yuanzi, did you see that man?" asked Conan.

"How do I know, I was attacked by that guy as soon as I came in, how could I have that time to look, and the room was very dark. "By the way, the guy is a man, and I took a bite on his shoulder, and it was full of hair." ”

"Man?" Lan asked in surprise, "Is that the murderer?"

"No, Sister Lan, it should be a thief or something. Conan said, "You see, the luggage is all messed up. ”

At this time, Masahiko Michiwaki came over and turned on the light, "What's the matter, this is, the light is not on?"

Seeing that Masahiko Michiwaki was covered in water and there was mud on the corners of his trousers, Lan asked, "Mr. Michiwaki, who are you?"

"The car broke down in the middle of the road, and I came running," said Masahiko Michiwaki, "I'm sorry, I'm late." ”

Conan said, "Mr. Michiwaki, can you take your shirt off? I want to see your arms." ”

"I don't know what's going on, though," Michiwaki Masahiko took off his clothes, revealing his upper body, "Is there anything on my arm?"

Conan and the three looked closely and found nothing unusual.

"Is it all right, little brother?" asked Masahiko Michiwaki.

"I'm sorry. Lan said.

"It doesn't matter. Michiwaki Masahiko smiled, and then put on his clothes.

At this moment, the black-skinned waiter came in, "Is something happening, guests?"

Yuan Zi found that the waiter had a bandage on his right arm, and immediately shouted, "How did you get your right arm?"

"It was bitten by a drunk guest before," said the black-skinned waiter.

"Please tell me when it is. Lan said.

"Just now. The black-skinned waiter removed the bandage, revealing the wound.

The garden looked at it and said, "It's not him, and the person who attacked me has hair on his arm." ”

"Attack?" asked the black-skinned waiter.

"Yes, a man came in from the balcony, rummaged through our luggage, attacked the garden where we came in, and then ran away without taking anything because we came," Lan said. ”

The black-skinned waiter said, "I think the thief did it, this happened once before." ”

"It's happened before," cried the garden, "why didn't you say it sooner!"

The black-skinned waiter went to close the balcony door and the window of the room, and said, "I remember I said that please close the doors and windows when you leave." And it's so late, and you're still dressed like this, isn't it obvious that someone wants someone to invade you," and then glanced at the cool crop top in the garden, "I don't think it's suitable for you to dress like this." ”

"It's too much," cried the garden, "it's my favorite type of clothing." ”

"Rest assured, whatever you wear is attractive. Masahiko Michiwaki smiled at Sonoko, "Whether it's a yukata or a swimsuit." ”

At this time, the black-skinned waiter closed the doors and windows and began to pack the garden's luggage.

"What are you doing?" cried the garden.

The black-skinned waiter said, "Change your room for you, change to another room." Then he asked, "Or do you still want to stay in this room where someone has broken into?"

"No, I don't want to. Yuan Zi said with some fear.

"Also," said the black-skinned waiter, picking up his luggage, "it's better to go out less, and it's better to have dinner at the restaurant here, maybe the man is ambushing somewhere." ”

"What to do, Lan?" asked the garden, scared.

"Don't be afraid, I'll always be with you. Lan said.

Masahiko Michiwaki said, "Then let's eat at the restaurant here, I'll order first." ”

"No, even if we invite this meal. The black-skinned waiter said. ……

In the evening, the restaurant of the Sea House Guesthouse.

The black-skinned waiter served a table of sumptuous dishes, "This meal is invited by our hotel, but on the contrary, you can't say anything happened in this hotel." And then he left.

"Got it, I'm not going to tell you, there are thieves in this hotel who steal underwear with knives. The garden stuck out her tongue at the back of the black-skinned waiter.

"Knives?" Lan was taken aback.

"yes, I can see a faint reflection. The garden said

Is the knife really related to the murder, just because Yuan Zi has brown hair? Wait, why did he rummage through his luggage? Thinking of this, Conan asked, "Sister Yuanzi, is there anything missing in your bag?"

"No," said Sonoko, "only the camera was taken out of the holster, perhaps because it was a bargain, the ignorant fellow." ”

"Ahem!" Lan reminded.

Thinking of this, Conan asked, "Sister Yuanzi, has the negative been taken?"

"The negatives? There were no negatives in there, oh, almost forgot. Yuan Zi said, and then waved loudly to the black-skinned waiter, "You can come over for a moment." ”

"Is there anything please?" asked the black-skinned waiter.

"I asked you to send me the photos for development. The garden asked, "Are you okay now?"

"I don't know about it, I'll help you ask. The black-skinned waiter finished and left, and after a moment brought a sealed paper bag to the garden.

"Thank you," said Yuanzi, taking the paper bag and waving his hand, "you can go." ”

When the black-skinned waiter left, Masahiko Michiwaki asked, "Can you lend me a look?"

"Yes. Yuan Zi smiled.

"No, I can't. Lan snatched the paper bag.

"Don't worry, this is another. Yuan Zi smiled, and then opened the paper bag to show Lan.

After Lan looked at them one by one, he confirmed that there was no shameful photo, and handed the paper bag to Masahiko Michiwaki.

Masahiko Michiwaki looked at it and asked, "Miss Sonoko, are these couples in the photo your friends?"

Lan smiled: "Oh, that's because Yuanzi was in a very bad mood before she met Mr. Michiwaki, so she went around filming couples in a prankish manner." ”

"Lan!" the garden protested embarrassedly.

Conan looked at the photograph and saw that there were no strange photos, and there was no victim photographed, and then he thought, by the way, we did pass by there at the time of the crime, but the garden was not photographed at all, so why did the murderer mistakenly think that the garden had taken a picture that might threaten him?

Conan thought about it for a moment, but he didn't have a clue for a moment, so he began to concentrate on eating.

In the small talk after the meal, hearing that the three of them would go back at noon tomorrow, Michiwaki Masahiko smiled and said, "In this way, then I will treat you to breakfast tomorrow morning, and then I will drive you back." ”

"Okay. Yuan Zi smiled.

"Garden. Lan shouted quietly.

"It's okay, call them then. The garden whispered.

Masahiko Michiwaki asked, "So, how about going to that ghost restaurant tomorrow morning and trying it out?"

"I'm going, I'm going," said Yuanzi, smiling, "and I won't be afraid to go in the morning." ”

"No cameras. Lan said.

"Please," Conan muttered helplessly, "do you want to go, or don't you want to go?" ”

Soon after, Masahiko Michiwaki took his leave, and the three of them went back to their rooms. ……

On the other side, Mei Daiko and Yamazaki took a helicopter to Fujigawa Airport, then took a car to Fuji Nature Zoo, paid three times the group price, and asked the staff to drive them around in a sightseeing car, and then returned to Yubu Izu Mitsu Amusement Park to rest. ……

The next day, Sunday, July 25, at around eight o'clock in the morning, Masahiko Michiwaki went to the Umiya Hotel to pick up the three of them. ……
