Saturday, April 7th, afternoon, Minakami-cho, Tone-gun, Gunma Prefecture, Aoiya Onsen Ryokan Aoiya, outside room No. 209.

Boss Toda knocked on the door while shouting at Detective Maori, but after several times, no one answered the door, and Officer Yamamura smiled: "Detective Maori? Let me tell you the truth, this person next to you is the real Detective Mr. Kogoro Maori." ”

"W-what!" Boss Toda froze.

"Hmph," Maori smirked, "this impostor must have known I was coming, so he didn't dare to see you, so you can open the door with the spare key now and let me reveal his true face to my face." ”

Boss Toda opened the door with a spare key, and after Mori entered, he said loudly: "Okay, don't hide, come out, let me see who dares to take my name." ”

There was no one in the room, everyone looked around, and found that there was no one, and the boss of Toda shouted: "The suitcase is not there, he took the suitcase, which shows that the newspaper is weird, so I didn't exchange the newspaper for money, and I am not a murderer." ”

"Well," said Officer Yamamura, "it's yet to be verified." ”

Yamazaki asked, "Boss Toda, where is your parking lot?"

Boss Toda said, "The parking lot is right next to it." ”

Conan immediately wanted to run out, but was caught by Yamazaki, and Conan struggled to calm down and not struggle.

"Why are you asking this?" Mori asked Yamazaki.

Yamazaki put down Conan and said with a smile: "Uncle, the waiter who helped with the parking hasn't come over to return the key yet, I'm afraid he ran away in Officer Yamamura's police car." ”

Maori asked, "You mean, he's a prisoner?"

"It's hard to say whether he is a prisoner in this incident, but in any case he has a problem. Yamazaki said, "He should have recognized you, uncle, and just ran away." ”

"So the prisoner drove away in my car?" said Officer Yamamura's face changed, "I'm in trouble now." ”

Maori said to the mountain village officer: "Call quickly, and it will be no problem to chase it back." ”

"Yes, yes. Officer Yamamura immediately took out his mobile phone.

"Officer, we don't have a signal around here. Boss Toda said, "There is a landline phone at the front desk. ”

After that, everyone went to the front desk to call, but the phone seemed to be broken, and there was no signal, and Yamazaki and Mei Daiko did not bring a satellite phone, so they planned to drive to other places to call the police, but when they went to the parking lot, all the cars were broken, so they had to walk to the police, so they took their luggage and flashlight, and under the leadership of the boss of Toda, they rushed to the water hot spring town at night.

On the way, Mori said to Boss Toda: "You tell me what happened later, let me see what happened." ”

"Yes, Mr. Maori. "When the long-haired man left, he asked me to give the letter to the comer if he didn't come to pick it up." As a result, the next day, a man with obvious makeup came to take the letter and the box, so I gave him the letter, and he tore it up angrily after reading the letter, and then asked me for the box, but I didn't give it to him, and he left. ”

The mountain village officer asked, "Just left?"

Boss Toda said: "Yes, I was a little apprehensive at first, but he hasn't come back until now. ”

Yamazaki asked, "Was Mr. Masao Jimbocho there at that time?"

Boss Toda said: "Yes, yes, he is definitely not that person. ”

Maori asked, "Are you so sure?"

Boss Toda said: "Because I was also curious about what was written in that letter, and after the person left, I asked a few waiters next to me to pick up the broken letters that were thrown everywhere, and then put them together little by little, and among those people was Masafu Kamibo." ”

Officer Yamamura asked, "What is written in that letter?"

Boss Yuantian said: "There is only one line of big words on the letter, may you be cursed to death." ”

At the same time, a bird's cry sounded in the forest next to the head god, and Lan and the garden screamed.

"So don't you come. Maori said helplessly.

Mei Daizi smiled: "I'm even more scared if I stay there, a hot spring inn far away from people and with no communication, a classic scene of horror movies." ”

"Mei Daizi!" Ran and Sonoko shouted angrily, and then the three of them frolicked.

Yamazaki diverted the topic, "By the way, Boss Toda, did anyone know when the long-haired man gave you the box?"

Boss Toda said: "That's not true. ”

Maori said, "In other words, it was at that time that Masafu Kamibo only found out that you had a mysterious box. ”

Officer Yamamura asked Boss Toda, "So, what's in the box?"

Boss Toda said: "After experiencing this, I was also afraid that there would be some stolen goods or something in the box, so I found someone to open it with a key and take a look, and it turned out to be a newspaper, so I left the box." ”

"A newspaper?" said the mountain village officer in an eerie tone, "could it be that the man's long hair is also in it." ”

"Ahh ”

"Pain, ......pain," the mountain village police officer shouted, and then said embarrassedly, "How can I deliberately scare you, it's like this in the movies." ”

"No, there's no hair in it, it's just a regular sports newspaper. "I remember the front page was the news that Akaseimaru had won a sumo wrestling match. ”

Officer Yamamura said, "He retired from sumo wrestling four years ago due to an injury. ”

At this time, Mei Daiko pointed to the head god forest with a flashlight and said, "Look, there seems to be something there. ”

Everyone shone their flashlights and found that it was a man in white hanging from a tree, so they hurriedly ran over.

Yamazaki took out the triangular blade and handed it to Midaiko, who threw the blade on the road and cut the rope, causing the man to fall to the ground, and the blade was nailed to a tree in the distance.

Boss Toda approached the man and immediately shouted, "It's a Maori detective." ”

"I'm here. Maori said angrily.

"Ah, I mean, it's the fake. Boss Toda smiled embarrassedly.

After Maori stepped forward to check, he shook his head and said, "He's dead." ”

"Another suicide. Officer Yamamura sighed.

"That's not certain yet. Maori said angrily, and continued, "Lend me your gloves." ”

"Gloves? Oh, oh, I brought them. Officer Yamamura hurriedly gave the gloves to Maori.

Maori looked at the bearskin gloves, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm talking about the white gloves worn by the criminal police, I want to look at the box next to him." ”

"White gloves?" the mountain village officer smiled, "You said this earlier, how do I know if you don't tell me, you said I will give it to you, it's impossible for you to ......"

"Poof!" Ran, Yuanzi, and Mei Daizi laughed together.

"Stop!" Maori exclaimed angrily, "I don't look at what time it is, I memorize the movie lines." ”

"I just feel like this scene stops. Officer Yamamura said embarrassedly, and then smiled, "By the way, Mr. Maori, you have also seen this Hong Kong movie." ”

"Gloves!" Maori shouted.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Officer Yamamura hurriedly handed the white gloves to Maori.

Lan smiled: "No, my stomach hurts from laughter." ”

Mei Daizi smiled: "It's so fun." ”

Yuan Zi smiled: "This guy should be an artist." ”

"Really?" Officer Yamamura smiled, "I've thought about this profession too, but I still think that the police are more prestigious, just like in the TV series played by Miss Kiko." ”

"Alright, don't make a fuss. Maori shouted, then opened the box and found a newspaper inside.

"This is it. Boss Toda said, "This is the newspaper." ”

Yamazaki picked up the blade and came back, "Uncle, leave the mystery of the newspaper alone, let's go first, I suspect it's a trap." ”

"Trap?" Maori and the others were taken aback, then looked around and found nothing.

Mei Daizi said, "Brother, I don't think there's any danger here. ”

"Of course there is no danger anymore, it's a trap to stall for time. Yamazaki said.

Conan thought to himself, I see, it's delaying us to go to the police.

Officer Yamamura asked, "Stalling for time?"

"Delay calling the police, but I'm not sure yet. Yamazaki said, "Uncle, let's talk as we go." ”

"Okay, let's go. Maori said.

Straight out of the woods, they found a Jizo Bodhisattva statue on the ground, but it was originally on the side of the road, but now it is in the middle of the road.

Boss Toda asked, "What's going on?" said as he wanted to put the Jizo Bodhisattva statue back in place.

"Wait, Boss Toda, let the stone statue be there first, there may be the murderer's fingerprints on it. Yamazaki said.

"Murderer?" asked the mountain village officer, "why did he put the stone statue here?" ”

Maori looked at the woods behind him, and said, "I see, it's for us to stop," and as he walked, he said, "There's a stone statue in the way, and anyone who sees this will stop, and then they'll see a man hanging in the woods." ”

Boss Toda said, "But it's night." ”

"The man was dressed in white, and he was not far from the side of the road, so it was easy to see even at night. ”

Sonoko asked, "So it's a murder?"

Yamazaki said, "Yes, it stands to reason that the suicide should have been deeper in the woods, and the murderer deliberately put him in a place where people could easily find him, so that we could stop and investigate." ”

Lan said, "But there may be others who will find out." ”

Boss Toda said: "Generally speaking, after dark, basically no one will take this road. Then he sighed, "It seems that the murderer is Masafu Kambo, I really don't know what he did it for." ”

Mori said, "Of course it's 100 million yen." ”

Boss Toda asked in surprise, "So he solved the mystery of the newspaper?"

Maori said, "Yes, so the box is useless to him. ”

"I see, he wanted us to see the box and study the newspaper there, so that he could buy time to drive away, cunning fellow," said the village officer. Then he asked, "So, Mr. Maori, he killed the long-haired man as well?"

"Well," Maori said after a moment's thought, "probably not, he didn't know what was in the box at the time." ”

The mountain village officer asked, "So, the long-haired man committed suicide?"

Yuan Zi said, "Maybe it was this imposter who killed him." ”

Mei Daiko said: "It is very likely that he and the long-haired man were accomplices, but the long-haired man who took the money hid the money and refused to give it to him, so he killed the long-haired man in a fit of anger." ”

Lan asked, "So, how did Mr. Jimbo get involved? Even if Mr. Jimbo opened the box in private, he would only see the newspaper?"

Maori said: "I'm afraid only he knows about this question. ”

Boss Toda asked, "Then did he really get 100 million yen?"

Maori said, "It should be, or I wouldn't have killed this impostor." Then he noticed a light in the distance, and said, "All right, we're coming, let's go." ”

More than 20 minutes later, everyone rushed to the light and found that it was a hot spring hotel, and the mountain village police officer called the police by phone, and then had dinner in the hotel with Maori and his party. And Mei Daizi saw that there were only some special snacks, so she called to order takeout.

After dinner, Mori and Yamamura officers left with the arriving policemen, while the others went to the hot spring inn where Dr. Asasa and the others were staying.

Soon after, Mei Daiko's dining car was transported by heavy shield helicopter to the nearby Yubu Water Highland Ski Resort. ……
