Chapter 422: The Haunted Truth

"Nani! Nani! What happened?! Something is wrong! ”

"How can I hear someone screaming..."

"Really... Can you stop making trouble, I still have to hand in my papers tomorrow..."

With a terrible scream from outside the apartment, the people in the apartment who had just returned to their rooms came out one after another.

After all, the screams outside were too loud, and they were afraid that something would happen at the door.

Naturally, the old man Otono and Mori Kogoro and others on the second floor also heard this voice, but when they looked out from the second floor, they didn't see any figures.

"It seems... It came from the stalled building across from the apartment...", Xiaolan leaned out of the window, a little uncertain.

"Go out and have a look!" Conan's expression was solemn, and he seemed to realize something when he thought of Tang Ze's way out, and hurriedly got up and ran out.

And under the drive of Conan, Maori Kogoro and the two also ran downstairs.

When a group of people appeared at the door of the apartment, they saw that Tang Ze walked over with a man with a blue nose and swollen face, and his right arm was obviously hanging there, obviously dislocated.

Obviously, the scream before was caused by Tang Ze unloading the arm of the man in front of him.

When they got closer, everyone saw the scar on each other's face and unconsciously turned their heads to look at the wanted notice posted on the telephone pole on the side.

"It's... He'sβ€”He's..."

"That killing... A wanted criminal for cremation!! ”

Although the face of the man who was escorted by Tang Ze was blue and purple, the conspicuous scar and the appearance of a wicked face were immediately recognized by everyone when they got closer.

"How... Tang Ze criminal, how could this fugitive be here. Xiao Lan was puzzled.

"Because the red fire floating in the opposite building is the fire of this guy when he smokes, and the cyan figure is the light from the portable TV that someone has taken over."

Tang Ze's eyes swept over a few people with a playful expression: "Judging from all aspects, another guy who has not been seen by witnesses is also here now." ”

"What...!!"

"You say there are criminals among us!?"

"How is this possible? Who is it!? ”

Hearing Tang Ze's words, several people's faces changed drastically, and no one could have imagined that they had lived in the same apartment with a murderer for four years.

This kind of scary thing to think about is so scary that I can't help but feel numb on my scalp just thinking about it.

"So, do you just ask me to save me something, or do you want me to get your accomplices out to accompany you?"

Tang Ze looked at the man in front of him and smiled: "You can think about it, if you can agree with the gang, then it can be regarded as a meritorious service, and I will report it truthfully when the time comes, so that you can reduce the sentence a little." ”

"Hmph..."The other party snorted disdainfully after hearing Tang Ze's words, and twisted his head to the side, obviously not planning to cooperate.

"Oh? That's fine, I'll take the opportunity to solve the mystery of this haunted house and your accomplices all at once. ”

"Accomplices!? Haunted house!? Hearing this, Mori Kogoro turned his head sharply to look at the four residents of the apartment, "You mean this haunted house was made by a murderer who doesn't know the face!?" ”

"That's right." Tang Ze smiled and said: "We have already explained the principle of the sudden appearance of a female ghost on the TV, as long as you use the remote control, you can easily get it, and other phenomena are similar to this." ”

"What the hell is going on with that bright red blood?" Peony Luyan was puzzled: "At that time, I saw with my own eyes, but the water in the tank did not have a little red clear water." ”

"It's very simple, I don't know if you smell it, there is a strong smell of ammonia in the bathroom, and in the tank of the toilet? It has a faint smell of alcohol. ”

Tang Ze smiled and said, "This is an experiment that elementary school students do." ”

"Huh? I know! Conan began to steal the scene with a milky voice, "Alkaline ammonia mixed with alcohol containing dissolved phenolphthalein?" It's like turning red! ”

"That is? Add alcohol containing phenolphthalein to the tank and add ammonia to the toilet water? As soon as the water is flushed, the two liquids will have a chemical reaction and turn red..."

Maori Kogoro couldn't hang up a little after listening to the answer? After all, he was scared half to death by this elementary school student who knew how to do tricks? This made him even more annoyed by the ghost behind his back.

"Wait, I understand what you're talking about, but it may not go well, right?"

Peony Luyan questioned a little: "The liquid that came out of the mixture of the two in this experiment you said is slightly pink?" It's very different from the dark red blood, right? What's more, it's not a single person who is wrong..."

"What if it's just daylight? Naturally, it is impossible to be mistaken, but it is clear that there is no such good lighting in this dimly lit bathroom. ”

Tang Ze explained: "Coupled with the fact that this house is haunted all the time, everyone has a preconceived feeling in their subconscious.

So when you encounter something weird, your brain will immediately think about things in a terrifying direction, which is the so-called scaring yourself. ”

"But even so? Urine should not have a chemical reaction with the two you said, right? ”

As a graduate student, Peony Luyan was a little unconvinced: "Ammonia in urine is acidic or neutral, not alkaline..."

"That's why I chose ammonia, which has a strong smell, as the liquid for the reaction."

Tang Ze nodded his nose and said, "This is a very simple psychological problem?" Sometimes we believe in what we smell more than what we see.

So if you pour ammonia in advance on the toilet? So strong smell makes people wonder if the toilet is too dirty, in such a situation? After flushing the water, it is convenient to fall into the hands of the prisoner. ”

"And what about the ghost we saw by the window before?"

Yotsuya still doesn't want to believe that the "ghosts" he expects are just simple scientific principles? He pointed to the window in front of him and said, "That ghost is what we all saw with our own eyes!" ”

"It's even simpler about that." Tang Ze pointed to the window and said, "The so-called ghost shadow is just an aggregate of male moths.

Are they attracted to the female moth pheromone agent used to repel insects outside the window? As long as we put the eyes and mouths cut out of black paper outside the window, then we will naturally think that it is a ghost from a distance when we look inside the house. ”

The so-called pheromones are pheromones, which are used to attract the opposite sex to obtain a hormone that is colorless and colorless.

As for this civilian insecticidal pheromone, some other flavors will be added to remind that there is spraying here, so Tang Ze easily analyzed the trick played by the other party.
