Chapter 978: Strange Death

"What? Something happened to Harawaki? ”

The photographer's aunt, who went to call the producer Harawaki, returned to the shooting site in a panic, and at the same time brought back the bad news that Harawaki collapsed in her room and did not react at all.

Because it was a little scary, the aunt hurriedly came back to call someone.

Harawaki's room was also on the second floor, the door was still open, and Gao Cheng and Conan rushed to the scene as soon as possible, and found that Harawaki was lying on the floor with his left hand on his neck, his mouth wide open, and he had lost his breath.

Hypoxic suffocation, typical cyanide poisoning, speaking of which this poison is too suitable for ordinary people to commit crimes, he doesn't know how many cases of cyanide poisoning he has seen.

Judging from the stiffness of the corpse and the formation of corpse spots, the poison should have been between half an hour and an hour, which was about the same time as when he was downstairs.

"Don't come in yet, Mr. Harawaki has been poisoned and died."

Gao Cheng turned around and called the crew who followed, and his eyes turned to Harawaki's right hand stretched forward, and a touchscreen mobile phone was grabbed by Harawaki in his hand.

"Is there a way to call the police?"

"No," the woman with glasses said in a panic, "I can only drive out to call the police, but we only have Mr. Harawaki who can drive." ”

"No one else can drive?"

Gao Cheng's brows twisted together, and he looked at Yuan Zi and Xiaolan.

The uncle downstairs doesn't have to count on it, which means that only he can go to the police?

"I can drive, but ......"

Gao Cheng's gaze returned to the scene of the crime.

Scattered under the table were drink bottles and bottles labeled potassium cyanide, which looked like Haragaki had committed suicide.

But the possibility of suicide in a ghost place is almost zero, at least he doesn't believe it, so it's impossible to leave a few people in the garden here, Uncle Maori is abolished, and Xiaolan can't be relied on in this environment, as for Conan......

Conan is a nuisance in itself, and only reasoning can be trusted.

"Castle ...... Brother Joto," Conan said with a serious face, picking up the phone in Harawaki's hand with a handkerchief, "This phone is still on video, maybe something has been captured!" ”

"Video?"

Gao Cheng was not in a hurry to call the police, and took the mobile phone to check in confusion.

This area seems to belong to the jurisdiction of Gunma Prefecture, and even if the police are called, there is a high probability that they will wait for the mountain village to that idiot, so it is better for him to investigate first.

The camera has a low viewing angle, as if it is supported by a cigarette case on the ground, and a timed automatic video recording is set, and the picture begins with Haragaki standing at the table, putting poison in the drink, and drinking the poisonous drink in one go.

Gao Cheng stared at the video with Nawaki in pain, the poison bottle and the drink bottle fell directly, Haragaki also staggered back to the phone, and then lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Harawaki's entire face appeared on the edge of the frame, and he stretched out his hand to the mobile phone that was recording with difficulty, and grabbed the phone with a hideous face, and then the picture fell into darkness.

After that, the phone seemed to be overturned and kept on a black screen video, until 50 minutes later, the shouts of the photographer's sister-in-law appeared, and finally they were called to the scene, as Conan picked up the phone, Gao Cheng's face appeared in the frame.

Odd......

Gao Cheng went back and looked at Harawaki's picture, his brows tightened.

There are slight deviations in the symptoms of poisoning.

As an expert in criminal homicides, and he is familiar with forensic science, he can be said to have a good understanding of cyanide poisoning, and the conditions of the original threat in the video and the original threat at the scene are not very consistent.

The strangest thing is that Harawaki in the video is noticeably younger, and his chin is not bearded.

"Ju, is it actually suicide?" Several members of the crew at the door also saw the mobile phone screen and were surprised.

"How could Harawaki kill himself? I also shoot this kind of video......"

"It's not clear at all, it looks like it's a suicide," Conan flipped through his phone while thinking about it, "Mr. Harawaki's mobile phone memo also wrote words that looked like a suicide note......

"To my old friend Joji Uto," Conan said to himself, unaware of the reaction, "this poison will make my heart stop beating and become a dead man as the world says, and my soul will remain in the flesh and gain an infinite amount of time,

When I succeed, I will bring all the living in this house into our world, just like the movie "The Funeral of the Dead" this time......"

As he spoke, Conan looked at the crowd at the door and asked, "What is 'The Funeral of the Dead'?" ”

The glasses girl was stunned and replied, "It should be the subtitle of this sequel, Mr. Harawaki put it in a letter and said that it would be announced here." ”

"Subtitle? Is it this letter? ”

Conan found a thick paper letter from the trouser pocket of the corpse, and was about to check it, noticing everyone's expressions, and hurriedly handed it to Gao Cheng with a dry laugh.

"Brother Joto, I found this."

Gao Cheng glanced at Conan, this guy got carried away as soon as he was invested, and the reasoning freak deservedly deserved.

The envelope paper is so thick that you can't see through it even when you look at the light, and the surface is intact with no signs of damage or soaking......

"Is Mr. Harawaki the only one who knows the subtitle?" Gao Cheng asked, holding up the envelope.

"yes," the director nodded, "that's the producer's job, and every time he decides to put it in a white envelope and then open it in front of the staff, he will never let anyone else see it until then." ”

"Once Ninomiya accidentally opened the envelope, Mr. Harawaki also lost his temper and specially changed the subtitle."

Several other crew members also expressed their affirmation.

"It seems that Mr. Harawaki really committed suicide, and those strange words are his suicide note."

The cameraman's aunt sighed, turned to the director and asked, "So what now?" ”

When this kind of thing happens, the movie can't be made for the time being, and the director said helplessly: "Anyway, let's find a way to call the police first." ”

Everyone's eyes fell on Gao Cheng, after all, only Gao Cheng could drive here.

"Detective Chengto, there's a convenience store at the foot of the mountain, you can call the police when you get there......"

"I still have something to ask you," Gao Cheng looked at the envelope for a while, and suddenly got up to face the directors, "Who is Neidong Chengzhi?" ”

……

The mountains were dark quickly, because of the murder, before I had time to eat dinner, it was almost dark outside, but fortunately, the villa was not cut off from water and electricity, and Gao Cheng ate a bowl of noodles soaked in the garden himself.

The uncle's family went out in a hurry, without bringing anything to eat, Xiaolan and Conan had to eat a bowl of noodles separately, as for the uncle who was still lying on the bed, he didn't look like a man, and it was estimated that he couldn't eat anything.

Gao Cheng looked at Xiaolan who went downstairs to the toilet together, and his thoughts returned to the case.

Neto Joji, the director's younger brother who died mysteriously 8 years ago, has learned about the situation from everyone in the crew.

It is said that 8 years ago,The horror research club members who are still in college also lived in this rented villa.,Shoot a horror movie for the school festival.,As a result, the identity of the director of the Uchito Chengji suddenly said that he would switch to a suspense mystery movie.。

In order to convince the others, Uchito Joji decides to perform a drama that is to disappear from the room.

Everyone watched the windows and doors outside, waited for 10 minutes, and when they entered the room again, they really couldn't find Neidong Chengji, and there was no one in the whole room, and even specially checked the bottom of the bed and behind the wardrobe to confirm that there was no secret passage.

The only way to leave the room was when the watchman returned to the house, so the group went outside again, and since they could not find anyone, the group went down the mountain first, because Kawabata Ria suddenly had a bad cold, and it was not until four days later that they returned to the villa.

Finally, in the room, I saw Nedon, who was sitting curled up by the window, starved to death, tilting his head as if to say, "You have finally found me".

Gao Cheng touched his chin.

The incident of 8 years ago, although bizarre, should not have caused Harawaki to commit suicide this time.

He was pretty sure that he had killed him, and the question was who the culprit was......
