Hoshizawa is one of the best-selling mystery writers, and his works are loved by the public and widely acclaimed.

Representative works include "Detective Mokofis", "The Butterfly Tied to the Room", and "Absurd Reasoning".

It is known as a must-see trilogy for mystery lovers.

Today is the time for the release of the fourth book of Hoshizawa Riverbank, "The Astrological Murder of the Star Atlas Museum".

And on this day, Okiya happened to come out of a small bookstore in the alley, just after buying books.

Judy happened to pass by, and was about to open her mouth and shout the word "show" excitedly and excitedly.

Conan on the other side happened to be passing by, and he was also about to go into the bookstore to buy books.

But at this time, he noticed a familiar figure around the corner in front of him.

Pick up the eye drops and put a few drops into the eyes.

Then, with the appearance of pear blossoms with rain, he ran towards Okiya Pleiades.

Emotional, including expression, with a faint hint of excitement.

"Daddy—"

Then he hugged Okiya and buried his head in his chest.

Juditon was in place, a little overwhelmed.

The book in Okiya's hand fell to the ground, looking like he wanted to make claypot rice for the person in front of him.

Conan was dumbfounded, only thinking that he would definitely be killed.

The story begins with this.

Of course, Conan was not killed in the end, after all, Qinghai Chuantang is a good citizen who abides by the law.

But as a cover, she invited Conan to join her to visit the writer, Hoshizawa Riverbank.

Although Conan said that you just have to delete the video.

But he was rejected by Qinghai Chuantang's righteous words, and said, "If you don't have chips, what will you do if you cheat me one day?" ”

Conan was speechless and choked, obviously you cheated me, okay?

The next day, Qinghai Chuantang also took Conan with him on the way to visit the banks of the Hoshizawa River.

The person who drove the car was named "Taeko Iwa" and was one of the editors of the Hoshizawa River.

This time, I came only because of her relationship. And Qinghai Chuantang also happened to take advantage of this to achieve the purpose of borrowing flowers to offer Buddha.

Overall, this wave is a sure win.

Mr. Hoshizawa's "Absurd Reasoning" was also adapted into a movie. It's a pity that the original ending has been changed, except for the plot line in the early stage and the good acting skills of the actors, the rest makes people feel boring. ”

Taeko Iting smiled, "I didn't expect you to comment so sharply at such a young age." And along the way, listening to you talk about it, it doesn't always feel like a child's knowledge reserves. ”

"After all, it's someone who has an IQ of 20 more than Leonardo da Vinci."

Qinghai Chuantang smiled and explained for Conan.

Leonardo da Vinci had an IQ of 230, and an extra 20 meant that Conan had an IQ of 250.

At this moment, the vehicle made a sudden braking move, and a large rock happened to roll down in front of it.

Fortunately, Taeko Ita found out in time, otherwise the accident would have turned into an accident.

"What's the situation?"

"It looks like it fell from above."

The three got out of the car and checked the neighborhood.

"There are circular marks left on the stone, which should have been pushed down by man."

There is a villa on the hill, perhaps someone has knocked it down, and the stones that were originally placed in the courtyard.

When the car drove to her destination, Taeko Ita looked surprised, apparently she knew.

"This is Hoshizawa-sensei's studio, Fujiyamaso."

"But as a best-selling author's villa, it seems a little small."

It's like an ordinary duplex building, maybe not as big as the courtyard of the Kudo family.

Taeko Iza explains with a smile, "The teacher just chose a place where you can see Mt. Fuji as a studio. ”

Hoshizawa is a man who is extremely obsessed with secular superstitions.

If you don't step on the edge of the tatami mat, you will never sleep facing north when you see the hearse hiding your thumb.

In addition, in the year when he dreamed of Mt. Fuji in the first month, his popularity exploded. Since then, he has been obsessed with Mt. Fuji. ”

The original villa on the bank of the Hoshizawa River was built on a spot with a view of Mt. Fuji.

But the apartment built three years ago blocked the view, and the banks of the Hoshizawa River fell into a trough.

So he hurriedly bought this villa with a view of Mt. Fuji. Now, every day from home at the foot of the mountain, come to this villa. ”

"I see."

Qinghai Chuantang nodded knowingly, glad that it was not in "Countdown to Heaven".

It is a tragedy about a painter who likes to paint Mt. Fuji, but because of the building built by the company, it blocks his view.

"But why did he roll the stone down the mountain?"

With that, Qinghai Chuantang walked over and rang the doorbell.

Ita Taeko originally wanted to stop her, but unfortunately she was still a step too late.

Seeing that there was no response, Qinghai Chuantang rang the doorbell again. After waiting for a while, he still didn't see any response, so he tentatively opened the door.

The door was not locked, but was hidden.

"Is anyone there?"

No response.

"Excuse me."

Qinghai Chuantang walked in.

Conan on the side twitched the corner of his mouth and talked about breaking into private houses, you seem to be more skilled than me, right?

Although it is only a studio, the décor here is very exquisite, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is another home.

The room is well organized, and the floor is very clean and tidy, without the clutter that ordinary people have in their impression that a creative master should have, or do whatever he wants.

Conan was a little curious, what was hidden behind the white curtains, so he looked over.

I didn't expect that there were several drones on the surface, and in terms of appearance and material, it was definitely not the kind of one-time bargain.

It seems that he is a drone enthusiast.

"Kids, you can't just go in here. Otherwise, you will be scolded by the teacher. ”

Taeko Ita took him aside and closed the curtains again.

Conan nodded obediently, walked to a wooden door, and asked curiously, "Sister Taeko, what is this for?" ”

"It's the teacher's studio."

Taeko Izai explained, "The teacher's studio is not open to the public, and it will cause you a lot of trouble if you go in. ”

Just as Conan was about to nod his head again, he suddenly reacted, sensing that something was wrong.

"It's rude!"

Conan jumped up and opened the door to the room.

The scene inside was exactly what he didn't want to see.

"Quick, call the police!"

Taeko Iiwa walked to the door, and when she saw what happened inside, she was startled and hurriedly ran to the living room to make a phone call to notify the police to come.

Hoshizawa was lying on the bed, and the white sheet next to his head was stained with a large amount of blood.

He received a blow to the head, and the murder weapon was a trophy on the ground.

It looks like he wasn't just killed.

Qinghai Chuantang looked at the study room that was used as a writing room.

At that moment, she heard staccato sobs.

She looked at Conan, who was kneeling in the chair, and felt a little inexplicable.

Then he asked, "Conan, what's wrong with you?" ”

Conan wiped away his non-existent tears and sighed, "The joy of being fortunate enough to enter the master's writing scene is intertwined with the sadness of losing the master." I really don't know how to express the mood at this time. ”

After listening, she was silent for a moment.

can make this mood rank before reasoning, it seems that his works have indeed won Conan's heart.

"Finding the murderer early is the best way to pay homage to the master you love."

Qinghai Chuantang stood in front of the bed and stopped for a while.

Then I looked out the window, and sure enough, I could see Mt. Fuji, which is full of natural beauty.

"There is no trace of a fight, and it is in a study with high privacy, which means that an acquaintance committed the crime."

Conan returned to his former appearance, and at this time he was more obsessed with it than before.

The newly bought "Astrology and Murder in the Star Atlas Pavilion", he hasn't had time to read it yet.

The latest work, which is about to be serialized, instantly came to naught.

Why was such a writer who gave life to the characters in his works killed?

"Let's go, find the source of the boulder."

Outside, an ordinary white pickup truck was parked.

There are two stone sills in front of the tyre to prevent it from slipping down.

And just in front of the stone sill, there is a soil pit, which is supposed to be the place where the falling rocks were placed.

"I was on the other side and found a jack to lift the stone."

Conan nodded, and told his speculation.

"That stone may have been buried here in the first place. Then, someone used a jack to push it to the other side of the cliff and hit it with a car. ”

Qinghai Chuantang nodded, "The idea is very reasonable. ”

On this side of the wall, there are two doors, one leading to the study and the other to the back door of the kitchen.

Conan turned the doorknob of the study and found it locked.

When you reach the back door of the kitchen, it opens easily.

At the door, there are also two pairs of slippers.

"Now, Sister Taeko. Mr. Hoshizawa often uses the kitchen door, right? ”

"Huh?"

"Because when I was at the entrance before, I didn't see a pair of shoes. But here, there are two pairs of slippers. ”

Taeko Ita walked in, and when she saw this scene, she seemed to remember something.

"The teacher seems to have said before that it is better to enter and exit feng shui through the back door. I've never been in the kitchen before, so I guess I got in and out of here. ”

At this moment, the doorbell rang from inside the house.

"I'll open the door!"

After saying that, Conan ran over very enthusiastically.

But because the door was hidden, the other party didn't respond, and just like them before, they walked in directly.

In the living room, the two successfully met by chance.

"Little brother, are you?"

The woman with the ball head on her head showed a puzzled expression.

"Miss Hoshimura."

"Oops, isn't this Miss Eting?"

The woman's name is Rumi Hoshimura, and she is also one of the editors of the Hoshizawa River.

"I'm here to pick up the manuscript from the teacher. But seeing that he didn't seem to be there, I went to the forest for an hour and picked some flowers by the way. ”

As she spoke, Rumi Hoshimura picked up the white flower in her hand and showed it to several people.

I learned from the mouth of Hoshimura Rumi that Hoshizawa River Bank didn't like to see people, so the only editors who were allowed to enter and leave here were her and Taeko Itewa, as well as Fukawa Kuko of Xiangchang Books.

"Is there something going on outside?"

Rumi Hoshimura, who heard the siren outside the house, felt a little strange.

"There was a homicide."

"Homicide?"

"The one who was killed was none other than Mr. Hoshizawa Riverbank."

"Huh?"

Rumi Hoshimura had a look of disbelief.

Mt. Fuji straddles between Japan's Shizuoka and Yamanashi prefectures, which is not the responsibility of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Instead, the nearest Yamanashi Police Station will be dispatched first, and if it can't be resolved, it will be handed over to the Metropolitan Police Department's Search Division for handling.

But his old friend Takagi, as well as his junior Yakukatsu, still came here.

"This is actually the meaning of the above, and I don't know what's going on."

After listening to Takagi's explanation, Conan was silent for a while and looked at Qinghai Chuantang on the side.

It seems that he is asking the other party with his eyes, what is the friend of the road you are talking about?
