"No?"

When I came to the room where Lihua Shijing was, I found that the room was empty!

Originally, if it were a normal day, it would not seem like much, but if Conan is here...... No, it's plus all the tires are punctured, it's obviously a problem, someone did something premeditated.

"Let's look for it separately. ”

However, the villa is very large and there are many vacant rooms, and several people did not give up and looked for other rooms.

However, after searching the entire villa's room, there was still no trace of Lika Shijing.

"Is it in the woods outside?"

"Was it kidnapped?"

Some people have raised suspicions that Reika Yotsui is the heir to the Yotsui Foundation, and it would not be surprising if someone wanted to kidnap her for ransom.

Since there is no one in the villa, it is natural to look for it in the woods outside, it is possible that the eldest lady went out by herself, and of course there may be real kidnappers!

If it was a kidnapper, the outside tire might have been punctured by them.

In this way, a group of people rushed into the woods outside the villa one after another and began to search for them separately.

However......

In the end, they didn't find Miss Reika Yotsui, but on the way back, they found Nikaido Yuji who was drowned in the fountain!

"Nikaido!"

"Priority!"

After discovering Nikaido, whose head was immersed in water, several people quickly went over to help him up, and then laid him flat on the ground, but when Xu Yue and Maori Kogoro put their fingers on his neck one after another, they shook their heads at the same time

"The person is already dead, not long after he died, and the preliminary conclusion is that he was drowned, there are traces of struggle, he should have been attacked from behind and pressed his head into the water. ”

Xu Yue is professional-level, and while pointing out various traces and clues, he quickly made a judgment in his mouth, which is much more accurate than Maori Kogoro, who has half a bucket of water.

Looking at the surprised expressions of several other people, Conan next to him added appropriately

"Brother Sato is a police officer, and now there is a murder, let's call the police, Sister Yotsui may also be in danger. ”

It's just that when everyone returned to the villa, they found that the phone had not been connected, it seemed that the line was faulty, and the mobile phone had no signal in the villa!

Looking back, even the tires of Kogoro Maori's car had been punctured.

"Damn, the murderer is trying to trap us in this villa. ”

Mori Kogoro complained.

At this time, Rokuta Shoji, who was leading the team as an elder and a senior, said at the right time

"Don't panic, everyone, we have agreed that Old Tang will drive us down the mountain tomorrow morning, we just need to wait until that time. ”

But as soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yue calmly interrupted him and said

"But I don't think the killer will be quiet, so let's wait until tomorrow. ”

"What do you mean?"

The identity of Xu Yue's policeman, as well as the identity of Detective Kogoro Maori, all play an important role here, at least subconsciously making others believe and trust them more.

"If the murderer's purpose is just to kill Nikaido, why is it so complicated, and why is it necessary to cut off our contact with the outside world, so he will continue to do it. ”

Hearing Xu Yue's explanation, others also felt that it made sense.

"So what should we do? We can't just wait. ”

Taku Mifune, who was forced to stay, also said with some irritation.

"Why don't we check out the whole villa in pairs? ”

The slightly chubby Gojo Hugh also gave a suggestion, which was unanimously agreed by everyone.

If you separate and search the entire mountain villa where you can hide people, it is likely that the murderer will be forced out directly, and even if you don't find it, everyone will be more at ease staying in the mountain villa.

"Yes, but everyone must be on the highest alert, for fear of encountering the attack of the murderer, if there is a problem, call for help, we will all come not far away. ”

In this way, the group can be regarded as having made a preliminary decision, and a group of two or two can also prevent the other party from not being able to send a one-time call for help, and the others are not far away, which can be regarded as foolproof.

The remaining nine people were divided into four groups, Conan's little oil bottle followed by Mori Kogoro's group of three, and the other groups of two people.

The Nanao Mi Lady, who is most familiar with the environment, is Officer Sato, who has the highest combat effectiveness and carries a gun.

In this way, the wardrobe, closet, and all kinds of places under the bed that could hide people were rummaged, but there was no trace of the murderer, and it took more than an hour before they returned to the hall.

The atmosphere was even more silent.

"Okay, don't be so depressed, I'll make you a cup of coffee to refresh yourself. ”

Nanao Mi's mother-in-law also fulfilled her duties and went to make coffee, while Xiaolan followed to help.

And under the tense atmosphere before, now that they suddenly relaxed a little, everyone also chose to go to the toilet one after another, and left the hall one after another, leaving only Xu Yue and Conan in the end.

"Na, Yue, do you have a clue?"

When there was no one around, Conan also put down his disguise and said with a thoughtful look.

"No, but it's probably certain that the murderer should actually be one of the people in the house. ”

Xu Yue sat on the sofa and whispered.

"I think so, too, I think there was something wrong with each other, but they never told us. ”

Just as Conan and Xu Yue were exchanging information and clues with each other, everyone also came back one after another, and Nanao Mi and Xiaolan also brought back coffee.

Busy now, everyone seems a little tired, and even Conan, a little kid, didn't refuse in the face of coffee that could refresh him.

"By the way, I heard you say that you are all members of a yacht club, right, so I don't know what happened two years ago. ”

Drinking coffee, of course, is to cooperate with small talk, Xu Yue looked around at everyone with a scrutinizing look, and seemed to be casually speaking.

It's just that after hearing Xu Yue's words, except for Maori and them, everyone else's faces changed, and they looked a little unnatural and sad, and finally the old Rokuta Shoji spoke

"There was a tragedy two years ago, so don't mention it. ”

"But Nikaido said before that Miss Shitsui-rei's object was determined two years ago, and I'm more concerned about this, maybe it's a clue. ”

Xu Yue began to smile on his face, which made Conan also look moved, and silently pricked up his ears to listen to the side.

Hearing Xu Yue say this, Rokuta Shoji was silent for a moment and then began to organize his words, explaining the tragedy two years ago.

On that occasion, they went out to sea together to play on an island, but they encountered a storm, and Miss Reika Shitsui was still on a reef island at the time, and this reef island would be flooded at high tide, so Yaeko, another member of their group at that time, went to the rescue with a life jacket and kayak.

It's just that in the end, only Miss Yotsui and Nikaido were rescued, and Yaeko's body was found three days later, and Yaeko was also the granddaughter of Nanao Yone.

After hearing this description, Xu Yue chuckled

"Perhaps, there is really some connection, the people who were rescued at that time were Nikaido and Miss Shitsui, but today these two people are one dead and one missing, which is too much of a coincidence. ”

Hearing Xu Yue's words, several other people couldn't help but be stunned.

"If you guess correctly, maybe Yaeko's death was not an accident back then, since she went to sea to save people, she obviously would bring a life jacket herself, it is likely that she didn't know that the people who needed to be rescued were two people, so she only brought another one in addition to her own, and you also saw ......"

Xu Yue didn't finish his words, but he silenced everyone.

The end result is that Nikaido and Mitsui both have life jackets, while Yaeko, who went to save people, was drowned in the sea!

"Otherwise, there are many ways to kill people, and there is no need to choose time-consuming and laborious drowning. ”

The more Xu Yue said this, the more everyone fell silent, it seems that this is the truth.

Conan next to him also reflected a glint on his glasses, Sato, I really didn't mistake you, this time it's better than one to see which of us can be one step faster!
