Everyone entered the Dusk Pavilion one after another, but as soon as they entered the antechamber, they heard a man complaining to the maid, "What did you say? The chef didn't come because he was sick? Don't you have a spare cook? You know, you invited me to the banquet, what kind of dinner is it if I can't even cook the food? ”

The man was about fifty years old, slightly obese, and had a peculiarly shaped beard above his chin and lips.

The maid hurriedly bowed and apologized: "I'm really sorry for this sudden situation, but there are ingredients in the kitchen, so you don't have to worry about not being able to eat dinner." I'm not good at cooking, but I still make some simple dishes. ”

"That's enough, since you don't know how to cook, how delicious can the food you make can be? Let me go to the kitchen and I'll cook a few dishes myself! ”

With that, the man walked towards the kitchen.

Haruki Motegi introduced to Zero and Kogoro and others: "That one is Detective Mr. Okami Zhuzen, his greatest interest is to taste food, and even publicly told the media that if he can't eat food, it will affect his reasoning level." It is said that his cooking skills are quite good, comparable to the chef of a five-star hotel, and it seems that we have a good fortune tonight. ”

Zero and the others all nodded, in fact, there was no need for Motegi to introduce them, they had all seen Ogami Zhuzen on TV. It's just that the appearances of Dashang Zhushan are generally food shows, not reasoning shows.

At this time, the thousand people asked the maid, "Is there anyone else invited besides us and the great?" ”

"Yes, a lady and a teenager."

When she heard the maid say that there was a teenager, Xiaolan's eyes froze: "Boy...... Is it Shinichi? ”

Conan hurriedly said, "I think maybe it's Heiji's brother." ”

Hearing the conversation between the two, the maid said to them, "The invitation list given to me by my master does have the names of Mr. Shinichi Kudo and Mr. Heiji Hattori, and I have sent them invitations. However, Mr. Hattori called me and said that he couldn't come to prepare for the kendo tournament, and that Mr. Kudo hadn't shown up yet, so he probably wouldn't come. ”

So, is the teenager she just talking about someone else? Conan pondered, could it be that a so-called high school student detective has popped up again?

Haruki Motegi first glanced at Zero, and then said to the maid, "So, where is the 'master' you are talking about?" ”

The one who invited so many detectives to come was undoubtedly the strange thief Kidd, although Motegi had suspected that Kaneda Ichichiko might be Kidd in disguise, but after all, he couldn't be sure. Besides, if Kaneda Ichiko was really Kidd, why didn't he just bring the pigeon with him, wouldn't that make his identity clear to others, which seemed to be inconsistent with Kidd's usual style.

Hearing Motegi's question, the maid said, "I don't know, I've never met him." ”

"Never seen it? Hey, don't laugh. Motegi looked at the maid with a "Are you kidding me" expression and said, "You just said that your master gave you the invitation list?" In that case, how could it be that you haven't seen it? ”

The maid explained, "I got the list when I interviewed for the maid job...... Then again, it was a very strange interview. ”

"What's this strange method?"

"I saw a job posting for this maid job on the Internet, and I decided to apply because the pay was good. However, when I arrived at the interview room, there was only a table with a laptop on it, the instructions for the dinner, and the list of invited guests, but there was no one in the room. The computer screen showed a job contract, and as soon as I clicked the 'OK' button, I accepted the job. ”

"But it's impossible to prepare so many things without communicating with the 'master' at all." This time it was "Kogoro" who raised the question.

"Well, there is the contact information of the 'owner' on the contract, and I have communicated with him a few times through mobile phone conversations and emails, but that's all, I have not talked face-to-face."

When Motegi heard this, he sighed, "What a mysterious guy." ”

Senma's mother-in-law smiled slightly: "Isn't that interesting?" If the true identity of the Phantom Boy is not Miss Kanedaichi as I thought, then the process of finding him out would be a pleasure. ”

"But this Twilight Pavilion is really creepy." Motegi continued, "When I saw those things on the door, my scalp was numb. ”

Hearing this, Xiaolan looked at the door curiously. If you look closely, you can see that there are indeed strange spots near the handle on the inside of the gate.

Motegi reminded Ran, "Be careful, it may be a bloodstain from a long time ago. ”

Hearing the word "bloodstain", Xiaolan was slightly startled.

At this moment, a woman's voice rang out: "That may be the blood splattered by someone who was shot from the side with a pistol at a 45-degree angle when he was leaning against the door." ”

It was a woman in a white coat who was beautiful and should be about thirty years old.

I heard the woman continue: "Not only the gate, but also other places have been rubbed, but I checked it with luminol reagent, and there are countless places on the walls and floors that are stained with blood. And this blood is by no means left by one or two people. In other words, there are probably quite a few people who have been injured or even killed here. ”

Listening to this woman's words, Xiaolan felt goosebumps all over her body.

Qianjian's mother-in-law exclaimed: "You are the beautiful detective Gunda Yumi, you are really terrifying." ”

Yumi Gunda smiled slightly, then looked at Zero and said, "Miss Kaneda Yilingzi is the real afterlife, I have often seen reports about you on the news recently." And when it comes to beauty, Miss Kanedaichi is better than me. ”

"You've won a prize." Since the other party praised himself, then Zero should be humble.

At this moment, a sudden sound of footsteps sounded from the upper floor, and I saw a young man walking down the stairs slowly from the second floor.

The man was seventeen or eighteen years old, with light brown hair, dressed in a suit, handsome and outstanding, especially his eyes were very bright, and his pupils were full of confidence all the time.

This man is obviously the young detective that the maid said earlier.

And the most eye-catching thing about the young detective is not himself, but the eagle perched on his left arm.

Almost as soon as he appeared, everyone's attention was drawn to the eagle on his arm. It's already strange that Kaneda has a pigeon with him, but this guy is good enough to carry an eagle with him.

As he walked, the man said, "I've heard that there was a great tragedy in this Twilight House forty years ago, and it's exciting to have the privilege of being here to explore the mystery in person." ”

After finishing speaking, the man looked at Zero and said, "It's been a long time, Zero, you are really more and more beautiful and moving." ”

Zero just wanted to say: "Who are you pretending to be so familiar, and call your name directly when you meet for the first time, don't be so shameless?" ”

However, before Zero could speak, she suddenly remembered that that guy was not a white horse detective!

Detective Hakuba's father is the inspector of police of the Metropolitan Police Department, and this position is the first commander of the police in Japan, so Detective Hakuba is an out-and-out second-generation official.

In fact, it doesn't matter if the second generation of officials is not official, the worst thing is that Bai Ma Tan and himself are classmates in primary school, and they have been in the same class for six years of primary school, but he went to study in the UK after finishing primary school.

His predecessor seemed to have a good relationship with him, but he was very sad on the day he left Japan.

Zero could only squeeze out a smile and responded to Detective Baima: "Classmate Baima, I haven't seen you for a long time......"

"Zero, you're really, aren't we childhood sweethearts, why do you seem so raw? You've always called me 'Brother Tan'. ”

Brother and sister! His predecessor is really, this guy is obviously nearly a month younger than himself, and he is called a woolen brother. Besides, we just went to elementary school together, you say it's a childhood sweetheart, I don't admit it!

I saw that Xiaolan was looking at herself at this time, and the word "gossip" was almost written on her face, and it was obvious that her girl's gossip soul had been ignited.

Zero continued to say to Hakuba: "Isn't that all when we were children, now that we have grown up, and we haven't seen each other for four and a half years, we naturally have to be more serious." ”

"It's only been four and a half years since we met, and I don't think our previous friendship would have become estranged by such a brief separation. Unless, you're not the one I know. ”

What does it mean? If I don't ask you to visit my brother, you're going to suspect me of being the thief Kidd?

Believe it or not, I'm going to beat you up!?

Forget it, ignore this guy. It's good to ignore it, ignore it......

Seeing that Zero didn't care about himself, Bai Ma smiled slightly, walked up to Zero, and said, "It seems that you are really ......"

As he spoke, Detective White Horse reached for Zero's face, as if to tear off her "disguise".

I'll go, you're still moving your hands and feet, aren't you?

Of course, Zero couldn't bear it, so he directly reached out and grabbed the white horse's right arm, and then pressed it with his backhand, and directly buckled the white horse under him, a standard grappling action.

"You really aren't zero, and zeros won't be as barbaric as you." The White Horse Detective shouted as he exhaled in pain.

However, Hakuba originally thought that the Zero in front of him might be pretending to be the strange thief Kidd, but now it seems that this possibility is not high. I've dealt with Kidd the Monster Thief many times, and that guy doesn't seem to be such a savage person.

So who is the impostor in front of this zero, and what is the purpose?

Zero shook his head helplessly and said to Hakuba, "From elementary school students to high school students, it is possible to have a big change in personality. Besides, where am I savage, if you don't have to touch my face first, as for this? ”

At this moment, the eagle brought by the white horse suddenly pounced on Zero.

As soon as Zero restrained the white horse, the eagle flew above the hall. This eagle also has a bit of intelligence, and when he saw that his master was in trouble, he did not hesitate to launch a dive attack on Zero.

However, halfway through the swoop, the eagle felt a sudden blow to himself.

The eagle's body was shot down and hit the floor directly with a "bang" sound.

The eyes of everyone who noticed this scene widened in disbelief. Oh, my God! What do you see? A tiny pigeon knocked an eagle straight from the sky to the ground?
