Chapter 127: Don't Always Save Money in Strange Places
At seven or eight o'clock, when the sun broke through the window and shone into the room, Conan struggled to open his eyes against the light spots on his face.
He looked at Maori Kogoro, who was still holding the quilt and lying on the bed, and then turned his face to look at Maori Lan who was combing his hair next to him, the scene was peaceful and beautiful...... It's just that I always feel as if I've forgotten something.
When he sat up yawning and accidentally saw the autumn leaves in the other corner of the room, Conan was stunned, and his memories came back like a tide.
Not very pleasant memories made him jump up: "What about the man wearing the mask!?" ”
Mao Lilan was taken aback by his actions, "It's so rude, you can't call someone like that!" ”
Momiji didn't mind for Shiraishi, she looked at the deflated quilt next to her, and casually pressed the quilt mouth, "He got up early and went for a walk." ”
Then he turned to Conan again, "What's wrong?" ”
“…… It's nothing. Conan instinctively panicked when he saw her, feeling like an innocent prey being targeted.
Fortunately, this confrontation did not last long.
The door to the room was quickly opened, and Xiu Nian told them that breakfast was ready with two huge dark circles under her eyes.
Mori Kogoro was also woken up by Mori Lan, and the three of them got up and went out.
When the door was closed again, Momiji looked around, then turned around and lifted a corner of the quilt next to him, and looked inside, where he met two ghostly cat's eyes glowing green.
"It has nothing to do with me."
Momiji shook the pot calmly
"I don't spend time next to the mask, but it actually consumes energy. In order to prevent waste, after your consciousness has been interrupted for more than 10 minutes, the system will automatically adjust the shape of the mask without exposing the anomaly. ”
"......" no longer has the gaze of idle people, and the quilt quickly swells.
The mask of the human figure was lifted up, and he didn't know how to express a thousand words, so he finally had to summon the light screen and silently arrange the items in the backpack in the shape of a middle finger.
……
In the hallway, thinking back to last night's events, Conan always felt that there was a conspiracy.
But judging from the calm appearance of Maolilan and Maori Kogoro, the two obviously didn't know that he slipped out vigilantly in the middle of the night→ was →turned over by someone and was put back in place because he was very faceless.
This made Conan also begin to wonder, what he saw yesterday, was it really happening, or was he dreaming?
If it did, it would have left a trace—even a mute who was good at keeping quiet couldn't have made a single move.
Thinking of this, Conan asked Mao Lilan, who was pulling him next to him, "Sister Xiaolan, did you hear any unusual noises last night?" ”
"That'......" Mori Lan thought he was referring to Mori Kogoro's cry.
She scratched her face and was embarrassed to sell her father, "I went to the bathroom at two o'clock in the morning, and when I came out, I tried on the mask of the foggy dog, but I didn't expect to scare my dad, so he screamed." ”
“…… Why don't you ask me to stay with you? Was it because I wasn't there at the time? Conan asked.
"How could it not be." Mao Lilan thought that the child had some kind of dream of going out to explore, "It's that you are sleeping too soundly." I couldn't wake you up, so I just dragged my dad away. ”
"yes, haha, that could be that I was too tired from playing yesterday." Conan laughed dryly twice, and his face quickly sank, he knew very well that under normal circumstances, he would not have slept so dead.
In other words, I was wandering around in the middle of the night last night, and I met the young man and was put down again, and it really happened.
…… What is his purpose? Go to the old abbot's room to dig up material so that you can write a report?
But a small ruined temple, is there anything that does not hesitate to stun passers-by and keep it secret?
Unlike Conan, who slept enough, Xiunian, who led them the way, was very sleepy and yawned all the way.
Conan was a little puzzled, but he didn't expect to see Mu Nian and Tun Nian when he entered the door, and these two people were also yawning.
"Do you have any late-night group activities at your temple?" Of course, Maori Kogoro also noticed it, and looked at this group of monks curiously.
As a result, Mu Nian became angry when he heard this question, and slammed his fist on the three-party table
"It's not like yesterday when a man screamed in the middle of the night! It's a pity that when we arrived, the man was gone, and if I caught him, I would definitely beat him up! ”
Tun Nian looked at a pair of eye circles and nodded, "Amitabha." ”
"......" Maori Kogoro's eyes fluttered, and he didn't dare to speak.
has been waiting for Xiunian to set up the meal, but the white stone and the red leaves have not yet arrived.
Xiu Nian was about to go out to look for it again, but suddenly heard a frightened scream.
This is the voice of Kuannian.
Several monks looked at each other for a moment, then jumped up and rushed to the confinement room. Maori and others also hurried to follow.
When I arrived at the place, as soon as I pushed the door, I saw Kuan Nian frightened to the ground, trembling and pointing to the top of the confinement room, "Heaven, Tengu......!" The Kiritian Dog is here again!! ”
Conan's heart tightened, and he rushed in, and when he looked up, he saw an old man hanging from a high beam, his beard fluttering in the breeze blowing in from the window above.
Abbot Tianyong is dead.
Conan pauses for breath for a moment, then turns his head sharply to look at the white stone walking down the corridor.
Last night - this man had appeared at the door of the deceased.
……
This time, there was no such tragedy as "the phone line was cut".
After calling the police, the Twilight Police Department quickly arrived with someone.
"The time of death was about 10 to 12 o'clock last night, and it was Master Kannian who found the body, and after that, you people ......" Twilight looked at the crowd led by Mori Kogoro, "and rushed over, didn't you?" ”
He and this former subordinate hadn't seen each other for several years. But recently, for some reason, the number of times I've seen him is a little weirder—and every time it's at the scene of the crime.
Seeing Maori Kogoro nodding with a smile on his face, the Twilight Police Department subconsciously looked to the side, trying to find out if there was any White Stone, Black Skin Detective, or Kudo Shinichi or something...... It's a pity that it didn't work.
Twilight sighed haggardly.
As a police officer in this world, Twilight is used to seeing Mori Kogoro and picking up an excellent detective to help him solve the case, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to be this time.
But fortunately, this time there is no need for detectives, this is supposed to be suicide.
"Two years ago, I also came here to police the police, and it was exactly the same case, and the deceased seemed to be a young monk named Zhongnian.
"Back then, the wall was also broken with a big hole, and the top beam was covered with dust, and then there were ......"
As soon as he said this, a cry rang out.
The Twilight Police Department turned to look at the woman crying next to her, "That's right, there's this young lady crying on the corpse." ”
Conan listens to the Twilight Police Department as he wanders around trying to solve the truth of the case.
After running upstairs and downstairs a few laps, and picking up a piece of duct-taped window on the grass outside the temple, Conan smiled confidently.
He had fully understood the prisoner's modus operandi, and the evidence had been found - fingerprints glued to the tape.
Next, just compare it with the fingerprints of the dumb person, and you can immediately draw conclusions.
