Chapter 29: The Vanishing Corpse

After a while, the man's younger brother quickly returned home, and he was the owner of the house, an employee of a securities company named Tomosa Tanaka.

When he was brought to Officer Twilight by the police officer, Tanaka looked at the room that had been turned into a mess in amazement.

"Officer, what the hell is going on?"

Twilight explained, "We got a call from the kids that a body had been found in your home. ”

"Corpses, corpses?"

"It's noisy!! Can't you just be quiet?! At this time, because Yuan Tai accidentally broke a clay pot, followed by the roar of a man upstairs, everyone was startled.

The man looked to the second floor: "Is my brother on the second floor now?" ”

"Yes, he seems to be quite angry," Twilight asked habitually, not looking good, "I take the liberty of asking, what industry is your brother engaged in?" ”

"My brother is a freelance writer, so he often stays at home and writes," Tanaka explained, handing out a card, "This is my business card......

Gao Cheng looked at Tomoshi Tanaka, who seemed to be more easy-going when talking to Officer Twilight.

It's really a strange pair of brothers, obviously the elder brother lives in his own house, but this younger brother looks like he is afraid of his brother, and he is more honest than Officer Takagi.

But where did the corpse go?

The police search continued, but they searched the attic or even under the floor, but they never found anything.

Twilight's face became even more ugly, and she turned to Tanaka Tomoshi and said, "I've already searched everywhere, and now it's only your brother's room......"

"Well, it's okay if my brother doesn't mind."

Tanaka Tomoshi led everyone to the door of his brother's room, knocked lightly on the door, and said, "Brother, can I go in?" ”

After knocking a few times, seeing that no one responded, Tomoshi Tanaka took the initiative to open the door, only to see that his brother was sleeping on a chair with his head propped up, and the TV in front of him was still playing.

He cautiously walked over and looked at it, then turned back to the crowd and said, "It's okay, come in, he's already asleep." ”

"Okay, let's finish the search quickly."

Twilight entered the room with a few policemen, but the room was very simple, there was basically nothing, and nothing was found after rummaging through the cabinets on the wall.

Twilight opened the curtains again and looked outside, only to see a big tree and a high wall.

Gao Cheng also followed to the window and opened the window to look out.

If the body is not in the house, there is a good chance that it has been moved outside, but it does not look like there is any special trace.

There's no reason, although his reasoning is like that, but his observation is not weak, there is an observation bonus in kendo, after so many days of adaptation, coupled with learning and training, not to mention that it is comparable to Conan, but it shouldn't be found at all......

"Really," Tomosaki Tanaka suddenly looked helplessly at his brother in front of the TV, "I don't turn off the ......TV if I want to sleep."

"Click!" As soon as he said that, the TV was turned off.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this, and hurriedly exited the room: "Oops! Seems to wake him up! ”

"Huh?" Before Gao Cheng could think about it, he was pulled out of the room together in a panic, and he almost lost Kaimei.

What the?

……

At night, the busy policemen complained and left, no longer believing the testimony of Conan.

But this is also no way, the whole house has been searched, but no trace of the corpse has been found, outside the wall behind the house is a very high embankment, although a person can climb the fence against a big tree, but it is impossible to dispose of the corpse.

After Gao Cheng handed over Kai Mei to the client as his younger brother, he returned to the scene and looked at the second floor thoughtfully.

I'm still a little uncertain, but after entering that brother's room, he always felt that something was wrong, as if there was something special that he cared about.

"You're still there?" Yuan Tai and the others saw Gao Cheng, who had sneaked into the courtyard, and approached him dissatisfiedly, "Really, this is our case!" ”

Gao Cheng came back to his senses, the corners of his mouth twitched, and after finding that Conan was not there, he whispered, "I just want to help you find the body...... By the way, what about your friend with glasses? ”

"You mean Conan," Yuan Tai immediately replied as if he were his own when he heard that Gao Cheng wanted to help, "Conan, he went to the house alone just now." ”

"Already in?"

Gao Cheng's expression tightened, and without asking a few more children, he climbed directly onto the big tree behind the yard.

Seeing this scene, Yuan Tai hurriedly exclaimed in a low voice: "Hey! That strange uncle is still in there......"

Before he finished speaking, Gao Cheng had already jumped into the second-floor window that had been opened before.

"Good, good!" Yuan Tai watched in a daze as Gao Cheng quietly entered the second floor.

"Who the hell is he?" Mitsuhiko said confusedly.

Ayumi wrinkled her little nose and pondered, "I really seem to have seen ...... somewhere"

"Ayumi thinks too much, he's just a little like Conan."

……

On the second floor of the house, the man in the bathrobe still maintains that strange sleeping position.

Gao Cheng stabilized his figure, looked at the man for the first time, and suddenly jumped his brows by the moonlight.

In this quiet environment, the aberrations are even more pronounced......

There was no sound of breathing, and the man felt completely different from a living person, this feeling, either some kind of latent master, or a dead man!

It just so happens that the original owner is quite sensitive to the corpses of dead people and the like......

Gao Cheng swallowed his saliva and walked to the man's side, his fingers trembled slightly and poked, and he suddenly felt that the motionless man's body had signs of stiffness.

Corpses, corpses!!

Gao Cheng took a few steps back.

I see, that's why the body can't be found...... But how?

"Is that you?" Conan sneaked into the room and found that Gao Cheng was already inside, so he couldn't help but be startled, and said in a low voice, "What are you doing here?" Hurry back, the murderer is still in the house, you are too dangerous for a little child. ”

"Aren't you a kid too?" Gao Cheng pursed his lips, suddenly looked nervous, and hurriedly pulled Conan to the corner of the room.

"Those hateful imps, haven't they given up yet?" With the sound of footsteps going upstairs, Tomosaki Tanaka swore and entered his brother's room with a golf club.

Conan was in a cold sweat, and when he looked at the gloomy Tanaka Tomoshi probe looking out of the window, he nervously pulled Gao Cheng with his backhand and moved towards the door.

"Who?" Tanaka heard the movement and hurriedly turned back in horror, "Yes, it's you?" ”

"Run!" Conan's face changed, and while Tanaka was stunned, he hurriedly pulled Gao Cheng out of the room.

Tanaka Chishi's face changed, thinking that the matter might have been exposed, and he followed with a hideous face and raised his golf club in pursuit: "Give me back!" ”

"Damn!" Conan gritted his teeth and ran to the place where he put his foot strength enhancement shoes, but when he turned around, he found that Gao Cheng hadn't followed.

"Oops!!"

"Die, little ghost!"

At the head of the stairs, Gao Cheng had already summoned the wooden knife Toyako to wait for Tanaka Tomoshi with a crazy face, calmly avoided the fierce attack of the club, and suddenly held the handle of the knife with both hands and picked it up hard.

Tomoshi Tanaka's distorted smile froze on his face, his eyes widening in disbelief.

"Bang!" Taking advantage of Tanaka Tomoshi's attack inertia, the wooden knife easily picked it up, flew directly over Gao Cheng's head, rolled over and smashed to the floor of the corridor behind him.

"Huh?!" Conan hurriedly put on his shoes and hurried back, only to see Takasei standing next to the unconscious Tanaka Tomoshi, while Toyako retracted the system the moment the attack ended.

"You ......"

"He suddenly fell down the stairs," Gao Cheng spread out his hand to show that it had nothing to do with him, and looked at Conan, who was shocked, and asked with a deep gaze, "Still, I'm still very strange, if Mr. Tanaka is the murderer, how did he do it?" At that time, his brother still shouted and cursed, right? ”

"It's because of the answering machine," Conan explained, returning to the topic of reasoning, with a confident and beaming expression, "He recorded it before the police came, like this." ”

Conan said and took out Tanaka Tomoshi's mobile phone and pressed the speed dial button, and the house suddenly sounded the scary scolding from before: "It's noisy!" Can't you just be quiet?! ”

"Look," Conan laughed, "he turned the ringing of the phone in the house to silent, and when we were not paying attention to press the speed dial key on the mobile phone, the answering machine automatically sounded, and it sounded like his brother was cursing on the second floor." ”

"But on the second floor, didn't his brother turn off the TV?"

"I think he set the timing of the VCR to turn off in advance, and then combined with his acting skills, because he was worried that we would find out that my brother was dead, so he was in a hurry to let us out of that room."

"I see," Gao Cheng figured everything out and looked at Conan with a complicated expression, "You are really powerful, although I know that he is a murderer, I don't know how he did it at all." ”

It wasn't until then that Conan had time to look at Gao Cheng carefully, and vaguely felt a little familiar: "Then again, who are you?" ”

His face under the light is similar to and different from his, with an indescribable temperament...... In short, it doesn't look like an ordinary child.

"I'm just a passing kid." Gao Cheng smiled lightly, turned around and left from the entrance, this time he solved the incident as a child, he didn't have any idea about prestige from the beginning, and it was nothing to give credit to Conan.

"What a strange guy."

Conan walked past Tanaka with his hands in his pockets and half-open eyes, and suddenly frowned, looking lightly at a scratch on Tanaka's chest shirt.

"Strange, it looks like it was cut with something...... Knife? ”

Conan somehow came up with a picture of Gao Cheng shooting several times in his mind: "Wooden knife? ”

"Conan!" Ayumi heard the movement, called the police, and hurriedly rushed into the open entrance, and when she saw Tanaka Chishi who was resting, she was surprised, "Is it over?" ”

"Damn!" Yuan Tai stared at Conan with an unhappy expression, "You're playing handsome again!" ”

Conan came back to his senses, full of black lines: Where did you play handsome? It's dangerous!

Looking at the chattering people, Conan glanced at him, shook his head and said, "It's the child's credit, I don't have time to do anything at all." ”

"Huh?" Yuan Tai was taken aback, "Really? That weird kid? ”

"yes, and ......"

Conan looked back at the faint knife mark, paused, and shook his head self-deprecatingly: How could it be that guy? Just a strange child.
