There was a whirring sound outside the house.

It was still early, but the sky was low.

This is a precursor to a storm.

In the villa, the engagement ceremony of the famous Gao family and the Shishan family is about to be held.

Naturally, the Suzuki family was also invited.

And on behalf of the Suzuki family, it was the second lady of the Suzuki family: Suzuki Sonoko.

Along with her were Xiaolan and Conan.

Although it was a representative who attended, in fact, they were all fresh faces, and it was inevitable that they would feel a little embarrassed. Fortunately, Xiaolan was able to accompany her, although for some reason she brought Conan's little ghost with her.

But in general, everything is fine.

"That's, Garden. Conan and I are here, is it really okay? Xiaolan said cautiously, her face full of nervousness.

"It's okay."

The garden whispered comfortingly, "Just come and enjoy the food." If it weren't for the eldest sister and brother-in-law going on a trip, it wouldn't have been my turn. ”

In an exhibition case, there is a crossbow and three crossbow arrows.

The box is equipped with a combination lock, which cannot be easily opened by ordinary people.

"Ahh Conan saw through the glass and saw its history. "I didn't expect this crossbow to be more than a hundred years old."

Perhaps because the owner is very well maintained, there are no scratches under the illumination of the display lamp.

"The correct name is the crossbow. At the Victoria and Albert Museum in South Kensington, there are also such antiques. ”

The familiar voice made Conan stunned for a moment.

"Sister Xiaotang......"

Before the other party could smile, he said speechlessly: "Why do you appear every time you go." ”

Actually, you're the Grim Reaper, right?

"You little devil, I was invited. And ......"

Qinghai Chuantang leaned over and whispered to him, "There may be a storm tonight." In addition, this is a deep mountain with no signal, and it is likely that there will be a common Blizzard Mountain Villa pattern in the reasoning world. ”

A man seems to have accidentally overheard their conversation, and then took the opportunity to pretend to exaggerate in an attempt to scare them.

"It is also rumored that at night, the souls of the previous generations of the Shishan family will linger here......"

The man was an antiquities dealer named Hiroshi Kubogawa.

At this moment, the sound of crutches sounded outside the door, like the sound of horses' hooves.

When the door was opened by the attendants, a man appeared to be half-footed into the coffin, dressed in a black tuxedo and holding a cane in his hand.

This is the head of the Gao Shi family, and the father of Gao Shi Yangfu: Gao Shi Zhengshan.

And the young and beautiful woman beside him is the current head of the Shishan family, Shishan Maki, and he is also the person who is about to marry Takayama Zhengshan.

The others around instantly greeted him, congratulating or flattering him.

"The engagement...... Anyway, it's a political marriage, and it's really a wonderful farce. ”

"I can't get the title of wife, so I have prejudice against others." After finishing speaking, Gao Shiyo picked up the wine glass and took a sip of the red wine in the glass.

The woman laughed amusedly, holding her chin and looking at him seductively.

"Aren't you too? Obviously not really welcome, this mother who is younger than himself. ”

She is Takayo Masasugi's original lover named Yoshimi Kushima.

"Miss Maji is really stupid." I don't know if she is sarcastic or sympathetic.

"What Zhengshan wants is just the fame of the Shishan family and that career. Even if you get married, you can't save it, and the Shishan family is on the verge of bankruptcy. ”

It seems that when she thinks of the other party's situation after that, she inexplicably feels happy.

Ancient bells rang.

Before you know it, the hour hand points to eight o'clock.

Most of them left the villa while it was still slightly light. Only a small number of people are ready to stay here for one night and then leave.

Luckily, the villa is big enough that accommodating them is not a problem.

"I still have something to do, so I'll leave first."

After walking up a few steps of stairs, Gao Shizhengshan stopped and looked back at everyone: "Everyone, please do this, continue to relax." ”

After saying that, he turned and went upstairs on crutches to his room.

"Everyone who stays here. If you don't mind, please go to the lounge over there. ”

The secretary Konki Hai stretched out his hand and gestured.

Yuanzi looked at Xiaolan, then looked at him and said, "Xiaolan and I are a little tired, let's go back to the room first." ”

Shiyama Maki glanced at the two.

"Then, I'll go back to my room."

"Mr. Masagi instructed you to stay with the guests." Konmu Hai said unceremoniously with a cold face.

Shishan Maki didn't speak, just nodded.

For Gao Shi Zhengshan, naturally there is no emotion in it, but they just take what they need.

In the lounge, in addition to a few of their guests, there were two waiters.

A few people were relatively silent, just savoring the red wine or champagne in the glass, as a way to pass the long time.

Suddenly, with the sound of lightning and thunder, the lights in the house went out all at once.

It's like it's caused by lightning.

The door to Takayama Masasugi's room opened, and he walked to the door with his cane.

"Mr. Masasugei, I'm really sorry, I'll fix it right away." The waiter Caimu hurriedly ran to the bottom of the stairs, bent down to apologize to the other party, and prayed that the other party would not be angry because of this.

Takayama Masasugi didn't speak, as if he acquiesced, turned around and entered the room again.

The amount of candles in the villa is limited, and it is simply not possible to make it to the point of being brightly lit.

"Miss Chaya, do you have glasses and plastic bottles with mineral water?" Qinghai Chuantang looked at the waitress.

After lighting the candle, cover the glass and stand the mineral water bottle on the base of the glass. In the plastic bottle, a chaotic reflection is formed, and the light spreads like a small flashlight.

Konmuhai calmed the emotions of the guests, and they were all very understanding, saying that it would be better to drink a little more.

"Then, I'll leave ...... first"

It can be seen that Shishan Maki is restrained and uneasy, and he is very uncomfortable and does not like such an occasion. Maybe persevering until now is her limit.

Looking at the other party's distant figure, Jinmuhai couldn't help but say, "I actually put down the matter of entertaining guests." I really hope that she can come up with a little bit and become the consciousness of a person from the Gao family soon. ”

"Forget it, isn't that good?"

Yoshimi Kushima smiled and put her glass back on the coffee table.

said with an indifferent face: "Anyway, how to be happy." ”

When I was preparing the ice cubes at home, I found that the cup was empty.

"I'm going to get some ice."

Hiroshi Kubogawa picked up his beer glass, got up and left the lounge.

Lightning and thunder, accompanied by fierce wind and rain, and shouts pierced the quiet and eerie atmosphere at this time.

"No kidding—"

It was a voice coming from inside Takashi Masagi's room.

Seeing that something seemed wrong with the situation, the people in the lounge hurriedly ran upstairs to check.

"Mr. Masasugi! Mr. Masasugi! ”

Konkikai knocked desperately on the door, but there was no response from inside the house.

He turned the doorknob, but it seemed to be locked and couldn't be opened.

"Mr. Konki, where's the spare key to this room?"

"Nope."

"There's no way, that's just to knock the door open."

Umi and Hiroshi Kubogawa join forces and finally knock the door open. But because of the excessive force, the two almost fell to the ground.

Jinmuhai hurriedly ran over, wanting to check on Gao Shimasugi's situation.

was pushed open by Gao Shiyofu and pasted on the window.

I saw Gao Shizhengshan fall to the ground, with a crossbow arrow stuck in his heart.

His eyes were slightly open, but there was a feeling of death.

"Father! Father! ”

Gao Shiyangfu shouted a few times, but the other party did not give any response.

"I'm sorry."

Qinghai Chuantang walked over and touched the other party's carotid artery, but there was no sign of any beating.

He shook his head slightly.

"Father.....

Shishan Maki whispered, and then fainted.

Fortunately, Xiaolan next to her reacted in time and caught her. Then he took her by the arms of the garden and carried her to her room.

In the hall, due to a power outage, the electronic lock was lifted, and the crossbow in the display box disappeared.

"During this time, someone stole a murder weapon and killed someone." Yoshimi Kushima said with some fear, and then looked at everyone.

"It's amazing!" Hiroo Takashi ran in, carrying the dripping rain. "The tree has fallen, blocking the road, and you can't get out!"

"Is there any other way to get to the residential area?"

Gao Shiyofu shook his head, "There is only one way. ”

At this time, Chaya took a flashlight, ran over in a hurry, and said anxiously: "The telephone line has been cut!" ”

"I just confirmed, the distribution box was also destroyed."

In other words, the power outage was not due to the storm, but was deliberate.

"It's that guy!"

Ryosuke Shirasui took a few steps back, trying to escape from here, shouting, "I'm going to be killed!" ”

Gao Shiyofu stopped him and shouted, "It's too dangerous! It's a storm out there! ”

Ryosuke Shirasui struggled, trying to break free from the other party's resistance.

"If you stay here, I'll be killed! Killed by Masahiko Tokiyama! ”

Masahiko Tokiyama is the father of Maki Tokiyama, and he is also the head of the Tokiyama family in the previous generation.

Xiaolan stayed in the house with Yuanzi, taking care of the unconscious Shi Shan Maki, and carefully put a blanket on him.

At this time, the originally dark lounge instantly became bright.

"It's not all of it, but I've fixed some of it."

Qinghai Chuantang said and walked over.

Conan, who was following behind him, was very complicated at this time: What are you Lanxiang Academy doing? Even teach this?

"Miss Maki, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm sorry, it's okay anymore." Maki Shiyama sat up with his body propped up.

"Miss Maki."

Gao Shiyoo walked into the room, walked over to him, and asked, "Did you kill my father?" ”

Shi Shan Maji was stunned for a moment, and seemed to be a little unclear.

"From the time the power went out to the time when I heard the scream, I was the only one who went up to the second floor, Miss Maji."

"I ......"

Maki Shiyama blinked his eyes quickly a few times, looking very nervous. "At eleven o'clock, I was called by Mr. Masasugi. However, I knocked on the door and there was no response. ”

"Mr. Konki." Qinghai Chuantang looked at him, "You just said that Mr. Zhengshan's room does not have a spare key. ”

Konmukai nodded and affirmed, "Yes, no." ”

"Because Masaugi doesn't trust anyone else."

As a former lover of Takashi Masasugi, Yoshimi Kushima naturally knows something about it.

She walked over to the couch and sat down.

Then he said, "Don't let anyone but yourself into the room." ”

In other words, the only one who can lock that room is Gao Shi Masaugi himself.

Wonderful!
