"Your motorcycle is out of gas, I have a barrel of gas in the trunk that I can lend you."

"Thank you so much!" Hattori's favorability towards this peer is rising.

Xiaolan was woken up by the sound of several people's talking, she opened her eyes, and suddenly saw the lotus leaves in the distant mountains outside, and shouted happily.

"Lotus leaves!"

"Xiaolan, you're here too!" Lotus Ye's eyes lit up, she hadn't noticed Xiaolan sleeping in the car, but now she suddenly saw it, and she really had a sense of surprise.

"Came with my father."

The two girls exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Conan was successfully lifted up and sat on Xiaolan's lap.

Conan's face turned red with a brush, and although the three people in the back seat could also sit down, but... He chooses Xiaolan's legs!

"Why is Conan blushing?" The lotus leaf who sat in the back seat tilted her head and looked strangely at Conan, who was blushing.

Xiaolan lowered her head and looked at it, Conan's face was indeed quite red, "I don't know, maybe I'm shy." ”

"I'm still shy, and I'm too cute!"

Kamikawa glanced at Conan with disdain, closed the trunk and sat back in the driver's seat. Just as he was about to start the car, a blonde foreigner suddenly rushed out of the woods.

"Wait! Wait a minute! He shouted, afraid that the car would drive away all at once.

Kamikawa looked at him for a moment, the guy had a camera around his neck, he wasn't fluent in Japanese, and his shoes were stained with a little mud from the forest.

"What's the matter?"

"I'm a photographer and I'm lost here, can you give me a ride?"

"Where are you going?"

"I came here to shoot Miss Takeda, who saved me three years ago." When it comes to this Miss Takeda, his eyes are quite gentle.

Listening to this same destination, and looking at the detectives next to him, Kamikawa instantly had a feeling that something was beginning.

"We're all going to Takeda's house, you can take my motorcycle, I can't sit in the car." Hattori Heiji was enthusiastic about the invitation.

"Okay, thank you."

In the car, Xiaolan chatted with Lotus Leaf, and a sentence attracted the attention of the whole car.

"Lotus leaf, what kind of commission did you receive?"

"The letter of entrustment we received said that we should rush to the Takeda house in Puppet Ridge on the afternoon of Planet 6, or else there will be a living puppet that will be brutally murdered by spiders. Pingji didn't feel at ease, so he came directly. ”

"Poisoned by spiders?" Conan tilts his head, what does this mean? Is it saying that someone will be killed? "Sister Lotus Ye, who sent your letter of entrustment?"

Lotus Ye shook his head, "The letter of entrustment only writes about the Takeda family, are there other families surnamed Takeda in the vicinity?" ”

Seeing that Lotus Ye was a little worried, Xiaolan said: "Don't think about it, you can know when you go to Takeda's house." ”

......

Evening.

The burly third of the Takeda family, Yuzo Takeda welcomed the people who arrived into the house. When it comes to spiders, he has some taboos.

"A series of unfortunate things have happened in our family in the past few years, so people in our area call us 'Puppet Ridge's Spider House', saying that our family is cursed."

"Puppet spiders?" Hearing these gods and ghosts, Xiaolan was a little weak.

"Where's Miss Maisa?" Rob, the blonde man, asked.

"Meisha hanged herself after you left three years ago." Yuzo Takeda pointed to the dimly lit warehouse next to it in the twilight, "It's on the second floor there." ”

"How... How could it be ......" Hearing the news, Rob felt as if he had suffered a major blow, and the whole person was stunned in place.

Kamikawa looked at him instantly, and unconsciously made up a tragic love story of 'the lover has come back for many years, but the beauty has passed away'.

Miserable, really miserable.

"So she committed suicide?" Mori Kogoro asked.

"Yes, not long after, my sister-in-law, who is Meisha's mother, also hanged herself in the same place."

"Huh?"

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to react to this kind of thing.

"How so?"

"Not only that, but just the other day, my eldest brother's friend, a gentleman surnamed Negishi, also hanged himself in the warehouse. It happened when we were all out. Takeda Yuya sighed, no one wants this kind of thing to happen at home. Even he himself had to believe that he was cursed by spiders.

"I think my eldest brother entrusted Mr. Maori to come because of this!"

"Does that Negishi-san always come to your house?" Mori Kogoro continued to ask.

"Hmm. My eldest brother is a puppet master, and Mr. Negishi is a puppet salesman, and the two of them have a good relationship. ”

"That's ......"

The group followed him all the way into the courtyard and met the rest of the Takeda family.

In second place is Ryuji Takeda, who has temporarily returned to his hometown from Tokyo, standing in the courtyard with his wife and twin daughters. There is also the main owner who invited Maori Kogoro to come over, Shinichi Takeda, the boss of the line.

Shinichi Takeda had a beard and looked very energetic, "Mr. Mori, I'm the one who invited you this time, and you've come all the way from Tokyo!" ”

He looked at the few people who were following behind Kogoro Maori, "Are these people behind you your children?" I remember you said you would only bring three people. ”

"It's a long story..."Mori Kogoro was a little embarrassed, with so many people, two of whom were picked up on the road. There is no way to say the unnamed letter of entrustment that Hattori Heiji received, so he can only be regarded as the person he brought.

"Let's not talk about that." Takeda Shinkachi took Mori Kogoro and walked to the side, whispering into his ear: "The main reason for inviting you here this time is to ask you to find out the cause of Mr. Negishi's death, I suspect that he was killed by someone from our family, if you know who the murderer is, you must tell me first!" ”

As they were talking, the door behind them was suddenly pushed open, and Kamikawa instantly looked back to see an old lady staring at the people in the courtyard with half of her face exposed. The old lady was gray-haired and short-stated, but her eyes were very sharp, and she looked at the crowd for a moment, and then said nothing, and closed the door as if she had never been there.

As the saying goes, the longer the activity, the more you can see it, and the older you are, the smarter you are.

Kamikawa instantly felt that this old lady was a little strange.

His gaze turned back to the courtyard, where the whole family had gathered except for the dead mother and daughter. He looked at the particularly conspicuous twins, who were particularly interesting, with large foreheads that took up a third of their faces, who looked exactly the same, who dressed identically, and who even spoke like repeaters.

The two little girls watched Rob whisper, and Rob greeted them, but the little girls reacted strangely to him, shouting "murderer" in disgust and running away.

Kamikawa instantly felt a little strange, he looked at Conan next to him who didn't know what he was thinking, and stroked his head, "Conan, these two little girls are just the same age as you, you go and play with them~"

Conan: "......"
