On the way to the fire house, Dr. Asa followed behind the luxury car in a yellow Beetle, except for Xiao Ai, who was not interested in staying at the villa, and Ayumi followed.

Yuan Tai couldn't help but drool: "There should be a lot of delicious food in the waiting, right?" ”

"Motota," Mitsuhiko said angrily, "We didn't come here to eat, okay!" ”

"However, I said there was a special event, so I don't know what it would be, so mysterious......"

Dr. Asasa was a little worried, he seemed to have heard something about the incident, and he didn't want to bring the children over at all if he could.

As long as you follow Gao Cheng, there are few times when you don't get involved in an incident, and you don't dare to ask Gao Cheng to be a nanny casually......

But...... Wait, is it because of the relationship between Gao Cheng or Shinichi?

The doctor scratched at the top of his bald head.

"Really?" Inside the luxury car, Gao Cheng's face was solemn, "The deceased who was crushed in half by the train is the president of the Qinglong Company of the Fire Worship Company?" ”

"Well, because the Pyrocaust Company put pressure on the media, there was no mention of names on the news."

The young Kentaro Izawa crossed his arms and explained, "The external statement is related to the reputation of the company, but it is ...... In fact, shortly before the murder of President Seiryu, all the ancient magic dolls displayed in the cabinet of the Karuizawa Villa of the Flame Shrine were stolen, and on the day of the accident, one of the dolls was found in the villa......"

Kentaro Izawa's eyes were deep: "That doll was placed on the rails of President Seiryu's favorite model railway, and just like the president's body that was wet in the heavy rain, the doll was also wet by someone, and it was divided into two parts!" ”

"Because of this, don't you think the death of President Qinglong was an accident?"

"Yes, there is a person in the Flame Worship family who is very important to me, so I have always been very concerned, it is by no means a simple accident, and this time I specially found Xiaoqiao to come over to find out the truth about the death of President Qinglong......"

The House of Grapes, luxury cars and the Doctor's Beetle sedan were parked on the side of the road one after the other.

The Grape House looks a little weird in the sunset, but if you don't look at the well-kept courtyard around it, you almost think it's an abandoned villa, and there are crows on the roof, and the crows are seeping.

Gao Cheng was still a little uncomfortable even if he saw it for the second time, compared with the lakeside villa, it was completely two conflicting styles, no wonder he would sell that villa, the aesthetics of this fire worship family were really strange.

"Is this really the House of Grapes?" Mitsuhiko got out of the car and walked to Gao Cheng's side, and looked at the villa with vines climbing everywhere on the outer wall, "The grape house means, does it mean that there are many grape vines?" ”

Kentaro Izawa smiled at Mitsuhiko: "It may have meant this, but now there is another way of saying it, and the people here call it the cursed mansion, the House of Black Magic." ”

"Black magic? Is it because of the grape pronunciation? Gao Cheng thought of Koizumi Hongzi's red magic, and his mind sank slightly.

"You'll find out later."

Kentaro Izawa was the first to walk into the villa, Gao Cheng followed behind, and found that the villa was a little old, but it was still very magnificent, and the decoration in the villa was similar to the dusk annex, and it was estimated that it was a building of the same period.

"I heard that this villa was bought by President Seiryu 5 years ago, and it seems that it has not been repaired......"

"Oh, Izawa is here......" A man in a suit with burns on his cheeks passed through the hall and noticed Kentaro Izawa's Kobashi Kenmi and Gao Cheng, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Is this the Detective Mr. Joto? A few days ago, I heard from Umizaki and Kohashi-kun that it was great to meet today, and I am the new president of the Huoji Group, Huoji Xiao......"

"Hello," Gao Cheng stepped forward and shook hands with Huo Xixiao, and looked at the Mitsuhiko who was curious to look around with embarrassment, "I'm afraid I'm going to disturb you today......"

"It's nothing, it's my honor to be a guest with Detective Joto, but," Huo Xixiao glanced at Kentaro Izawa, "I'm afraid it's a waste of effort for Izawa to invite you over, my father only fell asleep on the railroad tracks when he was drunk, it was just an unfortunate accident......"

Before Gao Cheng could say anything, Huo Xixiao turned to Kentaro Izawa and said, "How is it?" Will it succeed this time? ”

"No problem," Izawa winked at Gao Cheng, and smiled in the face of Huo Xixiao's question, "Although it is in the deep mountains, but this is Karuizawa, and the communication facilities are still guaranteed, as long as the latest video conference system is installed in the president's office, this is the second head office of the Huo Xi Group, and all instructions can be sent from here......"

"Really? That's great," Huo Xixiao said happily, "I still have some business, I'll see you when that event starts." ”

"Okay."

"Jing Ze," Gao Cheng said as he looked at the departing Huo Xixiao, becoming more and more strange, "What the hell is that event?" ”

"It's black magic," explained Kentaro Izawa, "and in fact, this villa holds a magic salon every full moon night, and I've heard that a new black magician will come over tonight ......"

"Black magician?"

Gao Cheng was about to ask again, and a girl in a skirt who looked like a big sister next door walked into the living room with tea.

"Welcome to the fire worship house and drink a cup of vanilla tea, it was just picked."

"Hoshiko," Kentaro Izawa immediately seemed to be a different person when he saw the girl, without the heaviness he had before, "I'm here to help!" ”

"Thank you," the girl smiled sweetly, "the new teacher is coming soon, so let's sit down and eat some cookies before we meet between the ceremonies." ”

"Between ceremonies?" Mitsuhiko surrounded the girl several times actively, "Big sister, is there any place for any rituals between ceremonies?" ”

The girl was very patient with children, nodded and smiled: "Well, everyone must be obedient later." ”

"Good!"

Gao Cheng silently looked at the smiling girl and Kentaro Izawa, and when Dr. Asa was wiping his sweat and taking care of a few children, he asked Kenmi Kobashi next to him, "Could that girl be the very important person that Izawa said?" Are they dating? ”

"I don't know either," Kohashi Kenmi saw that Fa Xiao, who looked like an innocent big boy in front of the girl, smiled bitterly, "She is the daughter of the fire worship family, and she is 28 years old." ”

"Izawa is only 17 years old, right?" Gao Cheng was a little speechless, and he didn't dare to be older than the age difference.

"But there's nothing strange about it," Ken Kohashi said with a strange smile, "President Xiao's young wife is only 17 years old......

"The young wife of the middle-aged uncle just now?!"

"You'll see you later."

"Although I'm an outsider who can't say anything, it's easy to have property problems if I'm an old and young wife, right?"

Gao Cheng stood by the window and looked out.

In contrast to the small size of the lakeside villas, the Grape House is more like a manor, even larger than the Dusk Annex, and in addition to the main house, the villa promenade connects several buildings, and there are several separate buildings along the woods, one of which seems to be the so-called ceremonial room.

Black magic?

Gao Cheng's fingers tightened, he felt that after figuring out the secret of the fire family, it was very likely that he would be able to solve the mystery of the death of the Qinglong president, and he would definitely have to participate in the ceremony of the meeting.

After eating dessert, Gao Cheng asked Dr. Asa to take care of the excited Mitsuhiko, and followed him behind the small bridge through the corridor to the ceremony, and the sky outside unconsciously darkened, and the darkness was a little scary.

"President Qinglong has three adopted sons and daughters, in addition to President Xiao and Xingzi, there is also a fire worship Jiuyao with a bad personality," Kentaro Izawa explained as he walked, "Although they are all suspected, but all three of them have alibis, President Xiao has been at the head office in Tokyo on the day of the crime, Jiuyao was reading in the living room just now, and Xingzi was picking herbs in the courtyard......"

"Does that mean all three have alibis?"

Gao Cheng thought of the theft of the cursed puppet of the fire family mentioned by Jing Ze, and the death method of the puppet was the same as that of the president of Qinglong, it was like a murder notice, I don't know if it was a coincidence or the murderer's intention, and what the purpose was.

"How many cursed dolls have been stolen?"

"This ......," Izawa said uncertainly, "I don't know very well, they are all puppets with some history, there should be a lot of them." ”

Gao Cheng frowned.

The case of this fire worshipper seems to be a little tricky, which makes him think of the hell puppeteer Gao Yuan Yaoichi who has been at large, and it seems to be an incident in Kaneda.

You might have to ask Officer Twilight about the case in Tokyo......

"Joto-senpai," Izawa said with a worried expression, "If President Seiryu was really killed, it is very likely that the motive is property or something, so Hoshiko will be in danger......"

Gao Cheng came back to his senses: "That, Jing Ze, are you dating?" ”

"No...... No," Izawa said with a slight blushing face, "It's normal to have only her in this family, so I'm a little worried......"

"Really?"
