At the time of the party, the gloomy Sugashi helps prepare snacks, and Araki brings red wine from the wine cellar.

Gao Cheng walked down the stairs after leaving Conan's room, just in time to see everyone gathered around the dining table: "Where's Uncle Maori?" ”

"Dad, he's back in the car and got a cigarette."

"That old smoking gun ......"

"Alright," Kuroda smiled, "everyone is ready, Joto-kun, let's find a chair and sit down." ”

"The other two haven't come yet......"

"They're not coming," Uncle Maori said, dressed in his coat, opened the doorway and walked into the living room with a heavy face, "I just went to the other side of the cliff, and the drawbridge has been burned by someone!" ”

"Huh? How so? ”

Everyone in the living room exclaimed: "There is only one way down the mountain!" ”

"There is a limit to pranks......"

"It's not a prank," Uncle Maori said, with a serious expression, "If I'm correct, I'm afraid someone is trying to trap everyone here." ”

"But who would do such a thing?"

"Well...... this"

In the face of everyone's confusion, Uncle Maori couldn't say why: "Didn't you do it?" ”

"Come on, why are we trapped ourselves in a place like this?"

Kuroda Naoko said with a worried face: "The phone has not been able to get through, could it be that the phone line has been cut somewhere?" ”

Gao Cheng's face changed when he heard that the drawbridge was burned, if there was anything else that could be a coincidence, the drawbridge was also burned down, and it was impossible to say what would really happen this time......

"Where's Mr. Hamano?" Gao Cheng glanced at everyone and asked.

"He must still be in the room thinking about the aftershow." Sonoko responded.

"Still in the room?"

Gao Cheng's eyebrows jumped, and he rushed upstairs without explanation: "Mr. Ara, which room does Mr. Hamano live in?" ”

Room 302...... What's wrong? ”

Arashi, Yuanzi and others followed Gao Cheng upstairs in confusion.

"Mr. Hamano! Mr. Hamano? Gao Cheng found room 302 and knocked on the door, but when no one responded, he twisted the doorknob and found that the door was unlocked.

Pushing open the door, there was no half figure inside, only a cold wind blowing in from the open balcony window, and the curtains fluttering in the wind.

"Strange, isn't Mr. Hamano here?" Huang Yi and a few people followed into the room, and were surprised to see Gao Cheng standing silently on the balcony outside.

"It's still late......"

Gao Cheng looked closely at the wide snow center in the backyard, and Hamano Toshiya was lying motionless in the snow at night, and there were not even a single footprint around.

"How is this possible? How the hell did you get past ......?"

"Mr. Hamano!"

Uncle Maori hurriedly ran downstairs and rushed to Riya Hamano in front of everyone, and after checking Hamano's situation, his face changed, and he hurriedly shouted, "Don't come here!" He's dead! ”

"What?"

"How so?"

Araki Yoshinori and the others stopped in horror: "Mr. Maori, this ......"

The uncle said in a deep voice: "From now on, no one is allowed to act casually, let alone destroy the scene!" ”

"Live?"

"Don't you see? The body was more than 10 meters away from the villa, but there were only footprints left by me just now, which means that this is an impossible crime! ”

Uncle Maori put down Hamano's body again, stood up solemnly and looked at everyone.

"I haven't been introduced yet, I'm actually a detective......"

"Ahh Naoko Kuroda reacted, "Could it be that Mr. Mori is the famous Mori Kogoro?" ”

"Mori Kogoro?"

"Won't it?"

Arabic looked at Uncle Maori in surprise: "I thought it was just a coincidence......"

"Ahem," Uncle Mori cleared his throat, "It's indeed Detective Mori Kogoro down there, can you invite everyone to the living room next?" It is likely that Mr. Hamano was killed by someone here......"

"Huh? Are you saying that some of us are murderers?! ”

"Well, I didn't say that, it's possible that someone is hiding nearby, and of course, there's a good chance that the murderer is among you guys."

Uncle Maori led everyone back to the living room of the villa.

"The only thing I know now is that someone strangled Mr. Hamano by the neck with a string or something, killed him, and then somehow transported him to the backyard, after Mr. Hamano returned to his room alone."

Uncle Maori interjected, "Can you tell me what you were all doing at that time?" ”

"I was preparing cutlery with Ms. Kuroda," Doi Tata replied first, "right, Ms. Kuroda?" ”

"Well," Kuroda nodded, "but once I'm done, I'll go back to the kitchen to help Mr. Suka." ”

"Help?"

"Mr. Ara asked me to prepare snacks." The dull beard pointed to the dining table.

"Well, I happened to be on the other side of the drawbridge at that time," Uncle Maori groaned, touching his chin and continuing to Tucker Doi, "so you were left alone?" ”

Doi Ta hurriedly explained, "Ah, I'm going to my room to get the cookies I'm going to eat at dinner." ”

"Oh? Grab cookies? The uncle stared at the Doi Tower, quite skeptical.

"I'll go to my room to see Conan," Sonoko continued, "and I've been with Ran ever since." ”

Xiaolan nodded vigorously: "I just happened to see Senior Chenghu too." ”

Takahisae Tanaka explained, "As for me, I'm in charge of boiling the bath water, and I've been in the firewood room. ”

"Where's Mr. Ara?"

"Oh, I'm going to the cellar to get wine."

"It doesn't take much time to get a drink, does it?" Uncle Maori was suspicious.

"Because I forgot to change the locks in the cellar, I went back to the villa to get the keys." Absurdity said anxiously.

"How long did it take?"

"This ......"

"About eight minutes," Sugama explained, "Miss Tanaka left the living room to boil water, and it was about eight minutes before Mr. Ara returned from the sake cellar, because I happened to be using the oven. ”

The uncle frowned when he heard this: "In this case, there is really no time to do other things." ”

"That," Takakue Tanaka shuddered, "it's so cold, can I go to my room and get a piece of clothing to wear?" ”

Uncle Maori said eagerly, "Of course, Miss Tanaka, for the sake of safety, I'll go with you......"

The corner of Xiaolan's eyes twitched, and she also got up and said, "Then I'll go too, I'll go see Conan." ”

"Let's do it together."

Takakue Tanaka and Uncle Maori went upstairs vigilantly, and everyone who remained in the living room suddenly fell silent.

Since the murderer burned down the drawbridge, it is very likely that he will kill again, and everyone is quite worried, afraid that they will be the next target.

"How can a good party turn out like this," Kuroda said uncomfortably, "does the murderer want to kill us all?" ”

Absurdity comforted: "It should be okay for everyone to stay together, and we'll see if we can get in touch with the outside tomorrow." ”

"It's all my fault," Sonoko sat alone on the side, clutching her fingers, "I killed Mr. Hamano, because I chose him to perform on the after-show, and he ......"

"What stupid things are you talking about?" Gao Cheng looked at the garden with tears in his eyes, and said angrily, "It has nothing to do with you at all, it's just a magic trick...... You just happened to be used by Mr. Hamano to perform a magic trick. ”

"Huh?"

"The ...... I Really Care"

Gao Cheng got up and picked up the note next to the phone: "Mr. Hamano seems to be surprised that he was selected, it seems that it should be Doi Tower who was originally in charge of the aftershow...... Why does magic fail? What the hell happened in between, and how this magic trick works......"

Gao Cheng's brows furrowed slightly.

If Doi Tower was Kidd, it wouldn't be impossible to do anything in front of Hamano, but Kidd wouldn't be able to kill someone...... That guy is annoying, but he definitely doesn't mess around......

"If there is a second person, the magic is simple." Gray Yuan's voice suddenly sounded in Gao Cheng's ears.

"Little mourning?" Gao Cheng was slightly embarrassed, "Aren't you sleeping?" ”

"You're so noisy, and someone has been killed, how can I still sleep?" Gray Yuan glanced at Gao Cheng and continued to say quietly, "That magic, if Mr. Hamano and Miss Tanaka were cooperating from the beginning, wouldn't it be very clear?" ”

"You mean Miss Tanaka is To?" Gao Cheng's face was shocked, and when he thought of something, he re-observed the note paper in his hand and found that there were several blank sheets on the reverse with very inconspicuous pen marks.

"Could it be that you can't write at that time?"

Gao Cheng recalled the previous situation, at that time, Hamano deliberately blindfolded the garden, and asked the garden to pull aside to avoid everyone.

His attention was on Hamano at the time, but it was Takakue Tanaka who really did it, and he must have dropped the pen halfway.

If that's right, I'm afraid the reverse side of the note handed over to the garden has already been marked in advance......

In other words, it is very likely that the magic "failure" was caused by Takakue Tanaka.

Is that big beauty a murderer?

Gao Cheng scratched his hair tangled.

"What's wrong?" The garden asked strangely.

"Ah, it's nothing," Gao Cheng came back to his senses and hurriedly said, "I'm a little worried about Xiaolan and them, so I'd better go up and take a look......"

"Ahh Suddenly, there was a sound of glass cracking, which startled Gao Cheng.

"What's going on?"

"It looks like the glass is broken somewhere!"

In the bathroom of the villa, the hot water was still steaming, the floor was covered with glass shards, the outward window was broken, and a crossbow bolt was stuck in a cracked mirror directly opposite.

Gao Cheng looked at the crossbow arrow, and his eyes fell on the broken glass window.

Everyone is in the villa, which means that it is the people from the outside who shoot arrows, but how can they inexplicably shoot arrows at the bathroom where no one is there? Scaring people?

"What's wrong?" Uncle Maori and the others hurriedly ran down from the upper floor, and when they saw the situation in the bathroom, their faces changed again and again.

"Bastard, what the hell is that guy going to do? Not only did he attack Miss Tanaka, but he also shot an arrow at the bathroom! ”

"Assault on Miss Tanaka?" Gao Cheng looked at his uncle suspiciously.

"Yes," Xiaolan said with a palpitation, "just now when we accompanied Miss Tanaka back to the room, an arrow came in from outside the window, and it almost hit Miss Tanaka. ”

"Really?"

Gao Cheng turned to Takakue Tanaka, who came later, and said in a daze: "That means that the murderer first shot an arrow at Miss Tanaka's room upstairs, and then shot an arrow at the bathroom?" Wouldn't that be too strange? ”

"What's so strange?" Uncle Maori snorted, "I think that guy must have slipped his hand and shot it wrong!" ”

"Huh."

"What are you kidding?! That guy really me off! After looking at the bathroom, Takakue Tanaka suddenly ran out angrily.

"Wait, Miss Tanaka!"

"It's too dangerous out there!"

In the backyard of the villa, Takakue Tanaka ran out of the back door and ran directly to the woods opposite the bathroom next to him, and Uncle Maori and his party hurriedly followed.

"Miss Tanaka!"

"Come out for me!" Tanaka ran to the edge of the woods and shouted, "What's the point of hiding in fear, get out of here!" ”

Gao Cheng finally walked out of the villa and silently looked at Takakue Tanaka who was shouting.

"What's wrong, Detective?" Gray Yuan followed aside, and smiled softly, "Are you soft-hearted because you are a big beauty?" ”

"How is that possible? Be careful with your poisonous tongue, I'll deduct your salary! ”

"Hmph."

Gray Yuan looked at Gao Cheng and smiled, and walked to the people at the edge of the woods with his little hands behind his back.

The light in the woods wasn't too good, but you could still see messy footprints all over the snow, and Conan and the others were completely drawn to the footprints.

"Is there anyone else hiding here?"

Xiaolan rushed forward to support Takakue Tanaka, who accidentally fell: "Miss Tanaka, are you okay?" ”

"Why?" Takakue Tanaka said bitterly, "Why did we encounter such bad luck? Why? ”

"Miss Tanaka......"

Gao Cheng's eyes never left Takahisae Tanaka, and although the woman's movements were very secretive, he still saw with his own eyes that the other party threw a pocket crossbow to the other side of the snow, and seemed to have pulled something out of a tree trunk.

"What is this?"

Standing under a tree with snow falling, a small hole in the trunk appeared in Gao Cheng's sight.

"Hey, come and see!" Uncle Maori found the crossbow and hurriedly shouted, "It seems that the murderer is from outside the villa!" ”

"Isn't this a crossbow?"

"There are a lot of arrows over here!"

Gao Cheng squatted by the tree and watched for a while, then stood up and said to Uncle Maori: "It's hard to say that the murderer is someone outside. ”

"What?" Uncle Maori's face sank and he said unhappily, "Isn't this obvious?" Everyone was in the villa when the murderer shot the arrow, and now the murder weapon has also been found here, so let's talk about it, what else is possible for the murderer other than being someone outside?! ”

"What if it's just someone deliberately using a trick?" Gao Cheng asked rhetorically.

"Huh?"

"In short, everything is still uncertain, and the murderer will need to be further investigated."

"But whether it was when Mr. Hamano was killed or just now, we all had alibi," Araki said strangely, "If the murderer is among us, how did he do it?" ”

Gao Cheng groaned: "Probably magic, the murderer performed a magic trick in front of us that could not be a crime. ”

"Magic?"

Uncle Maori smoked on his forehead: "What the hell are you talking about?" Hmph, I think you just want to confront me. ”

Gao Cheng smiled bitterly: "I think it's better for us to confirm everyone's alibi, and hand over the crossbow to the uncle for safekeeping before catching the murderer." 2k reading network
