414. The first detective died

“...... My goal is for you detectives to re-enact the horrific tragedy of 40 years ago. I want to watch you take and kill each other for the sake of your treasures. ”

While the dummy was still talking, the maid came in with black tea and served tea to everyone.

"It's boring." Haruki Motegi sneered, particularly disdainful of what he said.

Kamikawa gently stirred the black tea in the cup, and his eyes calmly swept over the people present. Everyone, including Conan, listened carefully to the dummy's words.

Instead of being scared, the detectives were in high spirits, as if they were participating in a fun game. He looked at Mori Kogoro, who and Ran were like the exceptions, their expressions of concern and uneasiness in unison, in sharp contrast to the others who were full of interest.

"If you want to hunt for treasure in such a large villa, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack, so I'll give you a hint.

The two travelers were in a hurry, looking up at the sky at night, and the demons descended on the castle

The king coerced the peach to die

The princess wept and poured the chalice to ask for mercy

The soldier is so angry that he swings his sword and kills himself, and the earth changes color."

"Isn't this what I just said......" Xiaolan was interrupted by the dummy's voice before she could finish speaking.

"Don't you think it's fitting to use this poem to describe the story that is about to happen in this annex?"

"Don't be stupid, if you want us to kill each other, not only do we have to see who the object is, we also have to have that meaning." Ikumi Gunmoto picked up the black tea and took a sip gently.

He wasn't surprised that the person hiding behind the dummy seemed to be watching everyone's reaction somewhere.

"Of course, but none of you should want to quit this game, because you have been so confused by the magic I have made that there is no way to get out."

Hearing this, everyone put down the black tea in their hands and looked at the dummy in the main seat with different eyes.

"Now wait for one of you to let out the first scream, and the game of wits begins."

"Listen, whoever finds the treasure will have to get to the room on the fourth floor of the Central Tower, and enter the location of the treasure into the computer. When the time comes, I will tell the winner half of the treasure and how to leave this place, as agreed. “

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Haruki Motegi kick the chair away, clutching his throat and screaming, his expression painful.

Everyone was shocked, "Mr. Motegi! ”

"Mr. Motegi, are you alright?"

Haruki Motegi, who was clutching his throat, turned his face, and the expression on his face became funny, "I'm fine." ”

Seeing that he was just pretending to be a person, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, "Really, you love the whole person too much." ”

"Sorry, sorry! But I'm not going to accompany this scavenger hunt. I've never been interested in treasure hunting. Haruki Motegi put his hands in his pockets and walked to the door.

The rest of the detectives had no opinion on Motegi's withdrawal, and Xiaolan was a little worried that he would go out alone, "But, how are you going to get out of here?" ”

"Don't worry, this is not an island in the sea, as long as I walk around the mountains, I will always find my way down."

Haruki Motegi waved his hand, "I'll go first, ...... of you."

Before he could finish his sentence, a chair at the dining table suddenly toppled over. Ogami Zhuzen grabbed his throat and got up, his expression was the same as Haruki Motegi just now.

Before everyone could think about whether he was also tricking, they saw Da Shang Zhushan fall to the ground.

Detective Baima stood up with a frown and walked over to check the situation, "Have you had enough?" He said as he crouched down to test his pulse, but unexpectedly, Ojo's pulse had stopped beating.

This man is really dead!

He immediately took out his pocket watch from his chest pocket, and the pocket watch accurate to the millisecond showed the time of death of the other party, "It's 22:34:51, and cardiopulmonary arrest has been confirmed." In his case, it would be impossible to save him. ”

"His lips weren't blue or purple." Ikumi Gunda checked the deceased's condition, and she approached Zhuzen Ogami and fanned his mouth and nose, and a stream of cyanide gas came out of the deceased's open mouth.

"Cyanide poisoning."

The copper coin in his hand stirred in the Daijo Zhushan black tea, but there was no redox reaction.

"It seems that the cause of death has nothing to do with black tea."

"In that case, how the hell did he die?" Kogoro Mori's question was not answered. A man died, and the atmosphere in the restaurant became scorching.

A sense of unease began to creep in.

The dummy's voice on the main seat came out again, "Okay, this game has officially begun, if you are not looking for treasure, you should use your wisdom for your own lives......"

Kamikawa stood up from his chair and walked over to the dummy in the main seat. With a slight movement of the hand, the dummy's head rolled to the ground, and two tapes fell out of it, still playing pre-recorded sounds.

"The tape recorder... And the timer......" Detective Hakuba frowned and looked at the maid Aki Ishihara. Aki Ishihara bit her fingernails, looking a little at a loss.

"Miss Aki, is the time when you brought the food here also set by the host?"

"Yes. Appetizers and soups are served first, and the main course is also well defined. ”

"So this murderer didn't talk while spying on us......" Mori Kogoro sweated on his forehead, regretting that he had come to the killing dinner.

"Then you can understand two things." Conan, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, attracting everyone's attention, "One is that the murderer planned to kill Mr. Ogami from the beginning, and the other is that the murderer may have been one of the few people we were present for a long time. Even this tape could well have been put in by the murderer while we were away. ”

Detective White Horse was not surprised by Conan's extraordinarily inhuman reasoning, he calmly analyzed what happened according to Conan's words, "Then, this murderer took advantage of the fact that we were not paying attention when we were eating at the same table with Mr. Taishang, and asked him to drink the cyanide that was in good sight and poisoned him to death. ”

Haruki Motegi nodded, agreeing with their words, "Yes, in front of a few of our detectives. ”

"In addition, judging from the content of the tape just now, it seems that the time of Da Shang's death has long been in the hands of the murderer." Senma took off his glasses, wiped them, and put them back on.

"The problem is that the cup of black tea he drank shortly before he died of poison did not detect a cyanide reaction." Ikumi Gunda put on her gloves and began to carefully inspect the utensils used by Ojo Zhuzen.

A few detectives seem to be in a state except for Mori Kogoro.
