Chapter 269: Don't stand under the headlights when you have Conan

"Ladies and gentlemen." In the midst of the police and Conan's fierce waiting, the ignorant master of ceremonies advanced the remembrance meeting to the next stage:

"What's going to be played next is a slide from the director's collection during his lifetime - please enjoy!"

β€œοΌβ€ Conan's face changed, and he was about to shout "Wait", but the staff had already pressed the switch with their hands and feet.

The lights went out instantly, and the only light source left in the entire hall was a slide projector next to the emcee.

Gray Yuan Wai vaguely saw the figure in front of her for a moment, and disappeared into the darkness, she nervously pulled Conan: "The swallow is gone!" ”

The Twilight Police Department also found out about the problem, urging Takagi and the other officers: "Go find it, hurry up!" ”

In the corner, Shiraki hugged his Polaroid and walked around the people standing in the hall to sneak closer to his destination, turning the flash on on the way.

On the screen in front of you, a picture of the times is projected.

The master of ceremonies was halfway through his explanation to it, when he suddenly felt a flash of light, and after a while, it flashed again.

He laughed twice and said in a calm tone: "Although I understand everyone's desire to take pictures, but with flash, you can't shoot slides." ”

Bai Shu looked at a man and a woman hugging each other in one photo, and then at a person in a strange pose in another photo, and was very satisfied with this capture.

He pinched the freshly printed photo, took advantage of the darkness in the room, tucked it into the arms of a reporter he had chosen, and slipped back into place.

As he did this, chaos began to turn in the hall - although it was not clear what was going on, everyone heard a loud falling sound.

The sound of the noise was accompanied by a little exclamation, and the master of ceremonies stood at the front desk for some reason, and soon heard someone shouting: "Turn on the lights!" ”

Something seems to have happened.

The staff hesitated for a moment and turned the light on.

A second or two after the lights came on, there was another exclamation as if it had been promised.

A group of people followed the sound and looked near the buffet table, and saw that there was an expensive crystal lamp in the hall that had fallen and scattered shards on the ground.

Under the lamp, which was nearly two meters in diameter, a human head was exposedβ€”his strange parts were pressed under the lamp.

"Everyone, please be quiet! Stand still and don't just move around! ”

The Twilight Police Department was all too familiar with this kind of scene, and he showed off his ID and walked forward quickly.

Takagi and several other detectives trotted over to the crystal lamp, and when they saw the face of the unlucky guy on the ground, they suddenly chuckled in their hearts.

- This is exactly the mouth-swallowing councillor they just stared at!

"And the ...... Ahem, that's what the guy said. The Dusk Police Department muttered, and after a cursory inspection, he knew that he was late, and the people on the ground were obviously dead.

A bearded celebrity next to him looked at the floor and then at the Twilight Police Department, always feeling that something was wrong: "Why did you come so quickly?" ”

The Twilight Police Department was quite frank: "We got the news that someone was going to murder the Swallowing Councillor here, but unfortunately we didn't have time to stop ......"

It's a pity that we couldn't stop the murder, but the case still has to be solved.

The Twilight Police Department skillfully drew out a few people and began to ask.

The first people to be asked must be a few people who are closer to the crystal lamp, even if they are not murderers, they should be able to detect some abnormalities.

But the people who were asked didn't know if they were afraid of causing trouble, or if they really didn't see anything, they all shook their heads and denied it, saying that they didn't see any suspicious people.

A few others thought it was just an accident, as for the briefing......

"The person who told you about this is very suspicious."

Kensan Kuyama twisted his two gray beards and began to reason:

"Maybe he's a murderer with a strong desire to perform, and he wants to learn from those strange thieves and get some kind of murder notice...... Shouldn't we find out who that person is before we investigate? ”

The identity of the person who called the "......" police, of course, is clear to the Dusk Police Department.

However, considering that Shinichi Kudo seems to be involved in some trouble, he didn't sell his teammates and lied:

"The other party used a voice changer, and he couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman, and his mobile phone number couldn't be tracked."

The master of ceremonies also separated the crowd and came over: "The drop of the lamp should be just a coincidence, as for the news you received, it may just be a prank, after all, Mr. Swallow has so many enemies." ”

"That's right." The bearded uncle who came out first picked up a plate of fried rice and ate it refreshed:

"The prank call and the accident collided and that's it. What is that sentence called, evil has evil retribution, hahaha...... "Click."

His expression was slightly distorted, and he spat a piece of scrap on the ground next to him, and roared, "Call the chef over!" There are stones in the meal! ”

A few people were talking nonsense.

At their feet, the tablecloth that fell to the ground moved slightly, and a child's hand reached out from under the table, and through a handkerchief, quietly pinched away what Uncle Beard had chopped out.

Soon, Conan crawled out of the other side of the table.

He stood next to the vigilant Gray Yuan Ai, looking at the thing in his hand, a little surprised-the fried rice was actually a fragment of a crystal light chain.

According to common sense, even if the light chain is broken, it will never fall to the place where the fried rice is.

…… It really didn't look like a simple accident.

Before he could sort out the clues, the person next to him grabbed him and ran to the door.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Where to? Conan was shocked.

"Escape, of course." Gray Hara's eyes twitched as if seeking security, even though her rare hair color was far more conspicuous than her face.

"It's just a waste of time to stay here, and if we get caught by the Twilight Police Department, we won't be able to explain why we came here."

She knew that there was not enough reason for the stubborn teammate next to her to definitely not leave:

"And there are too few clues, just relying on a fragment of a light chain with a strange falling trajectory, it is impossible to find the murderer."

Hearing this, Conan smiled with a whims: "It's not just shards. ”
