may be because his personality is too soft and he doesn't know how to refuse, but under the stiff pull of Satoshi Ota's "domineering president", Mao Lilan really ran away.

Conan looked at it behind him:

Is it a shovel that can dig into his corner?

Lin Xinyi forget it, which green onion are you Ota Satoshi!

"Unforgivable!"

Conan's mind was hot, and with an umbrella, he followed behind Mao Lilan and Satoshi Ota, and quietly followed out.

And the number one rival in his mind didn't pay too much attention to this matter.

Lin Shinichi was still chatting with Ayako Suzuki and others.

His eyes were still on the chubby Mr. Takahashi, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

And at this time, everyone is talking about the rise.

The initiator of the party, Ayako Suzuki, suddenly sighed uncontrollably:

"It's nice to be together, it reminds me of my college days, when we were talking about movies together."

"If that hadn't happened to Atsuko... She's going to be here too, right? ”

Atsuko, as soon as the girl's name came out of Ayako Suzuki's mouth, the air became silent and deadly.

Except for Satoshi Ota, who has already taken Mao Lilan out for a walk.

Hiroki Kakutani, Ryoichi Takahashi, and Chikako Ikeda, who were still chatting here, all changed their faces.

Especially Chikako Ikeda.

Her face became extremely ugly, and even the heavy makeup couldn't hide her nervous and scared emotions:

"Don't say it... Don't talk about Atsuko anymore! ”

"Everyone is taking time out of their busy schedules to party, why let that dead man's affairs be ruined!"

With extremely mean words in her mouth, Chikako Ikeda turned her head angrily.

"yes, I'm sorry..."

Ayako Suzuki apologized a little helplessly.

But the atmosphere has become completely cold because of this.

There's no way to talk to each other anymore.

"I... I'm going to fix the roof. ”

"The roof of this house is a little old, and now it's raining, and it will leak if you don't fix it."

Takahashi Ryokashi said such a thing in his mouth, turned around and left directly.

"Do you want to play cards?"

Hiroki Kakutani wants to change the topic and bring the atmosphere back.

"I'm not interested, I'll go for a walk!"

Chikako Ikeda stood up and thought about leaving the villa alone.

And Lin Xinyi looked at the back of Ryoichi Takahashi who disappeared behind the door, but he turned around and stopped Chikako Ikeda in time who wanted to act alone:

"Wait, Miss Ikeda."

"I'm curious... Who are you talking about? ”

"You?!" Chikako Ikeda's gloomy expression suddenly became even more ugly:

"You're an outsider, why are you asking us about it?"

"I'm a police officer, and I'm always interested in this kind of thing that involves human life."

Lin Shinichi stopped Chikako Ikeda and asked unabashedly:

"So, who the hell is Atsuko?"

"Why is it that when you mention this 'dead man', the expressions on which others show are nostalgia, but you are so disgusted, nervous and even afraid?"

"You—you—" Chikako Ikeda choked on speechlessness.

In the end, this accomplished great writer only held back a vulgar swear word: "It's your business!"

"If there is a suspicion in a homicide case, it is my business."

Shinichi Hayashi and Chikako Ikeda went toe-to-toe, making the atmosphere tense.

"Alright... Mr. Lin, there's really nothing suspicious. ”

Ayako Suzuki stood up and started a round, and, telling what happened back then:

It turned out that Miss Atsuko was also a member of the film research club and was a close friend of several of them back then.

This little girl has always had a lively and cheerful personality.

But two years ago, Atsuko suddenly hanged herself in the office of the club for no reason.

"Hanging yourself, no reason?" Lin Xinyi suddenly became suspicious.

Chikako Ikeda was uncomfortable by his gaze like a prisoner, and she replied angrily:

"What's the problem? Atsuko's suicide has been verified by the Metropolitan Police Department! ”

"And her parents paid for the institute to do an autopsy afterwards, and the results couldn't be fake!"

Chikako Ikeda laid out evidence to prove Atsuko's suicide, but Hayashi Shinichi's attitude still did not back down:

"I don't know if Atsuko's suicide is a problem."

"But, Ms. Ikeda, your attitude is very problematic."

"Why do you behave so disgusted with your best friend who died tragically by suicide, and even want to run away when you hear her name, and don't even dare to mention it?"

"Could it be that you have done something bad to this Miss Atsuko, so you are a little weak-hearted?"

Lin Xinyi said these murderous words in a calm tone.

"I—I'm not weak-hearted!"

"I just... I don't have a good relationship with Atsuko.,So I don't want to hear her.。 ”

Chikako Ikeda stammered in response.

She instinctively wanted to get out of the place that was leaving her breathless, but she felt that it would make her look weak.

Therefore, Chikako Ikeda simply sat back at the table with an ugly face, shouting at Hiroki Kakutani, who was holding a playing card in his hand, and shouted:

"Play cards! Didn't you say you were going to play cards? Hurry up and deal the cards! ”

She was like a frightened ostrich, burying her head in the soil and ignoring Lin Shinichi again.

And Lin Shinichi did not chase and beat Chikako Ikeda.

He just observed Miss Ikeda's embarrassed and gloomy expression, and then suddenly asked without a clue:

"When I was in college, who had the best relationship with that Miss Atsuko?"

"Huh?" Everyone didn't quite understand why Lin Xinyi asked this.

And before they could answer, Lin Xinyi said meaningfully:

"If I'm not mistaken..."

"The person who had the best relationship with Miss Atsuko back then should have been Mr. Ryoichi Takahashi, who just left, right?"

"No, that's right... It's Takahashi. ”

"Back then, we could all see that Takahashi had always had a crush on Atsuko."

Ayako Suzuki's expression was a little surprised:

"But Mr. Lin Xinyi, how do you know?"

Lin Xinyi didn't explain much, just sighed:

Finally, I can be sure...

Today is a real murder case.

Because he was always worried about this, he had just been trying to chat while also testing the past relationship between Ayako, Takahashi, Ikeda and others.

As a result, he really saw an extremely dangerous signal-

The suspicion of suicide in Miss Atsuko is enough to be a murderous motive that induces a murder.

And Chikako Ikeda, a woman who clearly feels guilty about Atsuko in her heart, is also likely to be the target of revenge by the murderer.

As for this murderer who took revenge on her...

Naturally, he had the best relationship with Atsuko back then, and there were still some "strange things" on his body, Ryoichi Takahashi.

"Chikako Ikeda should be the victim."

"Ryoichi Takahashi is a murderer who wants to kill someone."

"He's leaving now, I'm afraid he's going to prepare a tool for killing."

"It's okay... The murder hasn't happened yet, and I still have time to stop it. ”

Thinking like this in his heart, Lin Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief.

The cause of the case has finally been found, and the identities of the murderer and the victim can be roughly confirmed.

And the "victim" Ikeda is still sitting in the middle of everyone, and there is certainly no danger.

As long as he keeps an eye on the "murderer" Takahashi and stops him before he does it, today's murder will not happen.

And Lin Xinyi thought so in his heart...

In the woods outside the villa, there was a sudden shrill scream:

"Ahhhh Help, help! ”

"Miss Mao, Miss Maori?"

Lin Xinyi's expression was extremely stunned:

He never expected that this invincible female warrior who made him so relieved would be in danger.

Someone dares to attack Miss Maori? Is it Takahashi?

It can't be... Just him?

Can Maolilan be scared like this, can't it be that Saiyans invaded the earth?

Lin Xinyi was very shocked in his heart, but his body still acted quickly.

"You all get together, especially Miss Ikeda, don't get out of here!"

"Caesar, watch them!"

Caesar sat up sharply and looked at the people in the living room.

Lin Xinyi quickly rushed out of the villa and plunged into the rain that was gradually falling.

And although Maolilan is in the forest at the moment, the location is not far from the villa.

Lin Xinyi quickly followed the sound to the scene.

When they arrived at the scene, there was no trace of the attacker.

Maolilan sat on the muddy grass with his back against a large tree, his face full of horror.

"Are you alright, Miss Maori?" Lin Xinyi asked.

"No, it's fine." Mao Lilan said in shock:

"Just now a bandage freak attacked me with an axe."

"I—I dodged a few times, and the bandage freak saw that he couldn't hit, and Conan came over, so he turned and fled into the forest."

She was unharmed, but her clothes were wet from the rain, and her skirt was stained with a lot of mud, and she looked a little embarrassed.

And Conan was holding an umbrella and standing aside with a serious expression:

He just came out to follow Xiaolan, afraid that she would be abducted by Satoshi Ota to do something strange.

Unexpectedly, after Xiaolan and Satoshi Ota went for a walk in the woods...

Not long after, a terrifying bandage monster suddenly sprang out of the woods, and slashed at Xiaolan with an axe.

Who is that bandage freak? Why did you attack Xiaolan?

Conan stood in the rain with an umbrella in his hand, lost in thought.

At the same time, after a brief understanding of the situation, Lin Xinyi's expression was extremely subtle:

"Bandage freak?"

"Even you're so scared, that guy is strong?"

"Uh... It's not very strong either. ”

Mao Lilan slowly recovered from the fright, and then said with some embarrassment:

"Because that bandage freak looks so scary, I—I thought it was a ghost."

"Are you still afraid of ghosts?" Lin Xinyi's tone was even more strange.

"What, what's wrong... It's normal for girls to be afraid of ghosts! ”

Mao Lilan didn't realize at all that she was not a girl at all in Lin Xinyi's eyes, but a Valkyrie.

"What are ghosts to be afraid of?"

"It's just right that there are ghosts, let them come out and talk on their own in the future, so that our forensic doctors don't have to help."

Lin Xinyi complained a few words helplessly.

As he spoke, he returned to the topic and asked about Maolilan's situation at that time:

"What is the size of that bandage freak who attacked you just now?"

"Size..."Mao Lilan recalled for a moment, and replied, "It's thinner, it's not fat anyway." ”

"Okay, I got it."

Lin Xinyi sighed softly:

It's a puzzle that doesn't have suspense at all.

Who is that bandage monster and why did he attack Mao Lilan, thinking of the clues he got before, he can figure it out when he thinks about it.

"I'm going to catch that bandage freak right now and end today's farce."

"Miss Maori, you stay at the scene first and protect the footprints left by the murderer."

"Remember..."

"Don't let the footprints get caught in the rain for too long, they'll be deformed."

Lin Xinyi decisively arranged work for his students, turned around and prepared to leave.

However, seeing that Miss Maori was unexpectedly very afraid of ghosts, and even sat down paralyzed with fear until now...

He couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.

"Alas... Get up. ”

Lin Xinyi walked over and lifted her up from the ground.

Then, I saw the raindrops...

Lin Xinyi walked up to Conan again and snatched Conan's umbrella.

Conan was seriously reasoning about the identity and purpose of the bandage monster at this time, and he was extremely engaged in thinking.

It wasn't until the umbrella in his hand was snatched away by Lin Xinyi and the cold rain hit his face that he finally reacted...

"Ahh I forgot to give Xiaolan an umbrella! ”

Conan's low emotional intelligence Mu Ne's head finally remembered his childhood sweetheart who was still in the rain.

But by then, it was too late.

The umbrella had been snatched by Lin Xinyi, and he handed it to Mao Lilan:

"Miss Maori, remember to put your umbrella right."

"Hmm... Thank you, Mr. Lin. ”

Mao Lilan accepted the umbrella and nodded with some emotion.

"This..."Conan looked at it with a burst of anger:

Grab my umbrella and go to protect my girlfriend from the rain?

You, you... It's too much of a deception!

Conan was extremely depressed, but helpless:

I have to say that this time it was his own reaction that was too slow to give Lin Xinyi a chance to perform.

But...

Shouldn't Lin Xinyi's emotional intelligence be similar to him?

Why did this dull man become so careful in front of Xiaolan?

Difficult, is it, what the garden said...

It's all true?

The great detective Conan is in a very nervous mood at the moment.

He could even imagine that Xiaolan and Lin Xinyi hid from everyone and secretly talked about the depressing scene of love.

It's over, it's too late...

He's completely out!

Conan was in such a desperate mood that he thought...

I saw that Lin Xinyi, who hadn't gone far, suddenly stopped again.

He turned around and said to Maolilan with a look of surprise:

"Oops... Miss Maori, you put your umbrella right! ”

"Huh?" Mao Lilan was a little stunned: "I... I'm done. ”

"Who told you to give yourself an umbrella?"

As if seeing a good student who has always scored full marks suddenly make a mistake in the scoring question, Lin Xinyi reminded with some sadness:

"Didn't I just tell you..."

"Footprints, protect footprints first!"
