"I'm going back to my room, and I'll be served dinner to me!" After saying that, Tadaji left without looking back. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yamauchi tells everyone's secret in the video, which makes everyone lose interest for a while.

"I'm going back to my room, and I'll come back again at half past ten for dinner. Mei Yuan lit a cigarette and left.

"I'm also going to play a game of billiards before dinner. Gao Zhi didn't want to be with everyone either.

……

At half past ten, all the hungry people, except for Tadaji, gathered in the restaurant to enjoy a dinner of borscht, a Russian specialty, prepared by the butler and the maid.

Unlike the Chinese borscht that I drank in my previous life, the authentic Russian borscht tasted spicy and sour.

Xingchen had a question in his heart, and he asked the maid Xiangzi innocently: "Sister Xiangzi, this soup is delicious, why haven't I drunk it before." ”

Every chef who prepares food wants to hear compliments from the tasters, and he replies with a smile: "This is called borscht, and it is a Russian specialty." ”

"How can Sister Xiangzi cook authentic Russian food?" asked Xingchen pretending to be inadvertent.

"It's Master Yamanouchi who likes to eat Russian food, and I do a lot of it, so I can do it well. ”

Yamaouchi is obviously Japanese, why is there obvious traces of Russian habits everywhere in the villa? Xingchen thinks that if he continues to play the mystery game, he may be able to dig up the secrets of the previous generation.

……

When the bell struck eleven o'clock, people realized that it was already 11 o'clock in the evening, but Tadaji did not appear for a long time.

"Mr. Tadaji hasn't shown up yet, is he drunk and asleep in the bedroom?"

"He's been around for that a couple of times by letting go of the pigeons that our quintet has been gathering regularly, and lately we've been a quartet at all. Gao Zhi held a fork in his hand and put a piece of beef in his mouth.

"You're not wrong at all, he just doesn't care, it's hard for his wife to divorce him if she wants to," Mei Yuan lit a cigarette after dinner and complained.

"That's ruthless, Miss Umeyuan, if Mr. Tadaji hears it, he'll criticize you in our column again!" said Koji jokingly.

"If he dares, let him come, don't think I don't know, he is the one who spreads rumors everywhere that my award-winning work is plagiarized. Mei Yuan slapped the table and stood up suddenly.

"Calm down, Miss Umeyuan. You're also being talked about because you haven't had any new works! Novelists see the truth with their works, aren't they?" said Yu Yue, the calmest illustrator among the five candidates.

At this time, Tashiro saw that the maid Xiangzi pushed the dining cart back to the restaurant, but the food on the dining cart had not been touched, so he asked Xiangzi, "Won't Mr. Tadaji eat it?"

"Yes, no matter what I call it, Mr. Tadaji didn't react. If he falls asleep, waking him up will make him angry. Xiangzi replied.

Xingchen actually admires the courage of the maid Xiangzi, before Zhongzhi was still rude to her, and now she dares to go into the mouth of the tiger, in case Zhongzhi is really strong and gallant, then Xiangzi is really throat and no one hears.

Yue Shui casually looked up and noticed a stain on the ceiling of the restaurant, which showed a tendency to expand. She asked Tashiro, "Mr. Tashiro, what's on our ceiling?"

"Hmm," Tashiro thought for a moment and said, "It's your bedroom." ”

"Whose dormitory is this?" asked Yue Shui, pointing to the location of the stain.

"It should be Mr. Tadaji's room. ”

"You see, the stain on that piece of ceiling, could it be a leak in the bathroom? Let's take a look!" Koshisui said this because he was curious about the spread of the stain, and on the other hand, he wanted to explore Mr. Tadaji's room and see if he could find clues that would help solve the mystery.

Modern people's lives are inseparable from the Internet, and in the isolated mountain villa, everyone is idle when they are full of food, so they come to the door of Zhongji's room together.

The butler politely knocked on the door, but no one in the house answered.

Xingchen then tries to turn the handle, but finds that the door is unlocked.

People walk into the room and hear the sound of running water coming from the bathroom.

"We're in!" Regardless of whether Tadaji could hear it or not, Steward Tashiro still shouted.

The men walked into the bathroom first and found that the bathtub was full of water and was constantly overflowing. Mr. Tadaji was half-floating in the bathtub in his pajamas, but his head had been separated from his body, and he could not die again.

A Russian doll floats silently in the bathtub, and the whole scene is indescribably terrifying.

Magician Rosyth picks up the doll in the bathtub with his hand and discovers that the doll is Ivan the double bass chosen by Mr. Tadaji.

"So, those code dolls...... Take a look at the Tower of the Clock. Magician Rosyth clearly had something in mind, and he ran quickly to the clock tower where the puppet was placed.

Everyone followed behind Roses the magician, someone had already been killed in the villa, and now no one dared to act alone.

When they went to the room where the dolls were originally placed, they were surprised to find that all five Russian dolls had disappeared.

……

After a preliminary examination of Tadaji's body, lawyer Daisuke concluded, "I'm not a professional doctor, so I'm not sure, but judging from the bleeding condition, it should have been cut off after death." The real cause of death is probably impact death, and part of the skull in the back of the head is broken. ”

"Could it be a murder comparison? Have you forgotten the first sentence in the code: 'Paradise is in the court meeting, and the head is cut off in order from front to back', when I was a child, the school held a court meeting, and everyone lined up from short to high, and listened to the teacher on the podium give a long speech!" Magician Rosyth sat on the sofa, although he could not see his facial expression, but from his movements and tone of voice there was no nervousness at all.

"Wait a minute, in the order of the first and last, isn't the second one me?" called Mr. Koji, who had chosen the cello Yemir.

"Mr. Roseth, people are really bad, saying this kind of thing, it seems that after Mr. Tadaji is killed, there will be murders continuously, and it is not a mystery novel, it is really stupid to say anything that is comparable to murder. "Yuyue doesn't believe that the killer will kill people in a row.

"It's hard to say, don't you remember? In Master Yamanouchi's early masterpiece "The Lucia Doll Murder Incident", in that novel, the five people gathered in the villa were killed one by one according to the Russian dolls, and there was not even one left. Gao Zhi, a high school student who had read the novel, said nervously: "In the end, there is only one person left, and that is the real murderer 'commander'." ”

For a long time, before formal contact with the Blackcoats, the stars were in an absolutely safe environment. Even though there are people around him who are constantly killed, Xingchen clearly knows who the murderer is and the murderer's modus operandi, so he never worries about himself.

This time, he and Yue Shui came to this Lucia Pavilion full of mysteries, and Xingchen encountered a case in which Conan was completely uninvolved, and his ability to be an "unpredictable prophet" could not be used.

The murderer should have killed people in the order of the dolls, and the possibility of Xingchen and Yue Shui being killed is not too high, but in the face of the reasoning of gambling with their lives, even if they are not too careful.

"Everyone, please drink some warm Russian black tea, and it will calm down a little after drinking. "After the housekeeper Tashiro and the maid want to cut the black tea, they brought it to everyone present.

Although he loves coffee and milk, Xingchen is not averse to other drinks.

At this time, Xingchen deliberately kept an eye on it for the sake of safety. He took out a stirring stick and kept stirring the Russian black tea, which seemed to outsiders to be a child's playful nature, but in fact Xingchen was waiting for the reaction of the others after drinking the black tea.

Originally, I wanted to remind everyone that there was a possibility that someone might poison the black tea, but Xingchen considered that he would have to live in the villa for five days, and it was impossible not to eat anything.

"Sister Nana, you see that black tea has become a 'tornado'. Xingchen asked Yue Shui to see the whirlpool formed after he quickly stirred the black tea, in order to delay her drinking the black tea.

Yue Shui looked at the naughty Xingchen, and she asked with some puzzlement, "Isn't Xingchen afraid?

"I'm not afraid! I'm the son of the Twilight Police Department, and I've seen hundreds of corpses, if not thousands. It's just a small scene where my head is different, and I have three more reasons to be sure that the murderer won't kill me!" Xingchen stretched out three fingers, showing confidence.

Ross, the magician, was a little curious about the unusual child of Xingchen, and he asked, "What are the three reasons?"

"First of all, judging from the fact that the murderer placed a puppet next to Mr. Tadaji's body, the murderer was a premeditated murderer. I'm not a candidate for the heir to Master Yamanouchi's legacy, and I have no grievances with everyone present in the past and no enmity in the near future, so I guess the murderer won't harm me. ”

"Secondly, I'm a child! The murderer who kills an adult may not be sentenced to death after being arrested, but killing such a cute child as me will create a bad impression in society, and the police will definitely pay enough attention to this case. Whether it is the intensity of the investigation of the case or the judge's trial, it will be strict and severe! I don't think the murderer will do it at a loss!"

In this passage, Xingchen showed that he was saying to the magician Rosyth, in fact, he was reminding the murderer that the price of killing children was too great and not cost-effective!

"Third, I have the power to rival the gods, if you can really kill me, then come!hahaha!" Xingchen laughed arrogantly with his hands on his hips.

Xingchen's strange behavior when he said the third reason was a little incomprehensible, and some people thought that he was a secondary two patient, completely immersed in his own world and unable to extricate himself. Others think that Xingchen can make the first two reasonable analyses, and the third point will not be a bluff, maybe he really has the hole cards that can reverse the murderer.

People are always afraid of the unknown, and the stars can be sure that the murderer will not attack him until he has achieved his goal.

"It's twelve o'clock, and it's almost time for you to go back to your room and rest. Daisuke put the Iwan doll of the double bass in its place.

"Wait! That puppeteer soaked in the bathtub with the corpse!Why did you still put him there?" Mr. Koji, who could be the next victim, was nervous, and he said to Daisuke's lawyer's actions.

"However, this puppet is part of Master Yamanouchi's 'code', so I think we should restore it to its original state as much as possible. The reasons given by lawyer Daisuke are impeccable, "and according to the instructions, no matter what happens, this battle for the inheritance must continue until the master's birthday, which is five days later, at twelve o'clock at midnight." ”

"Then I'm going back to my room to rest, good_night, all of you in the quartet!" Magician Rosyth still calmly went his own way, perhaps because of his profession as a magician, he had developed a strong heart that was not alarmed.

There are all kinds of mysteries about this mysterious magician, but Xingchen is the first to take him off the list of suspects besides himself and Yue Shui, on the grounds that the real murderer will only disguise himself as inconspicuous.

"When you get back to your room, please be sure to lock the door from the inside, and don't open the door casually, no matter who we visit in public!" Yue Shui kindly reminded everyone: "This villa is located in the middle of the lake, and the possibility of the murderer being invaded from the outside is very small, which means that the murderer is likely to be among us!"

There are two keys in each room, one is kept by the occupant himself, and the spare key is locked on the shelf in the dining room, and the only person who can get the spare key is the Tashiro housekeeper, but the Tashiro housekeeper is not among the five candidates, and there is no conflict of interest with the others, so everyone goes back to the room and locks the door and sleeps peacefully.

Lying on the bed, Xingchen carefully reasoned about the whole process of Tadaji's murder.

Tadaji's murder time was between ten and eleven o'clock in the evening, and during this time, everyone except Xingchen and Koshisui were together, everyone else had time to commit crimes.

In particular, the maid Xiangzi is more suspicious, because she brings dinner to Tadaji alone between half past ten and eleven o'clock, and she can ensure that no one will disturb her through the whole crime process when others eat in the restaurant.

It is also possible that there were more than two murderers, one of whom may have been male, as Tadaji's body was found in a bathtub while wearing clothes.

It shows that the bathroom is not the first crime scene, and it takes a certain amount of strength to carry the body and cut off the head of the body, so the possibility of a male murderer committing the crime is greatly increased.

After thinking about it for a long time, Xingchen could only completely exclude Mr. Koji, who was looking for Koshisui to help, from the list of suspects, because he was looking for Koshisui Nanatsuki just to solve the mystery.

The rest of the reasoning is not supported by enough clues, but only theoretically possible and suspicious.

Gradually, the stars fell asleep.

The next morning, Xingchen got up tired and met the listless Yueshui in the corridor, Xingchen greeted, "Sister Nana didn't sleep well last night?"

"Aha!" Yue Shui yawned loudly, "I'm obviously asleep, but my body is very tired." ”

After listening to Yue Shui's words, Xingchen felt a strong uneasiness welling up in his heart, and after Yue Shui came to the bell tower, they found that next to the double bass Evo doll, there was a puppet of the cello Yemir who disappeared yesterday.

And Koji Takada's body was lying quietly on the sofa in the room......
