Chapter 364: Ancient Mansion (2)

Without further ado, soon, Lu Yuan and the others came to the ancient mansion.

This location is almost a suburb, but due to the good environment, trees and lakes, it has been developed into a place similar to the [rich area].

However, the ancient mansion must have been around for many years, so this big mansion is more quiet and lonely on the edge of the rich area, and it is indeed imaginable and comfortable to come to such a place after being accustomed to the daily life of the city.

But be careful, it's all based on the fact that your house is lit up, and there are neighborhood properties and roads around you, so if you live in an old house that is older than you, and the road is far away, there are almost no people, and it is 11 o'clock in the middle of the night, then it's a different story.

Now, Lu Yuan, Xiaolan, and Kazuo Shanmu are standing neatly at the door of the ancient mansion, looking at the dim building inside through the rusty fence.

"That's it?" Lu Yuan asked.

"Yes...... Yes. Xiaolan nodded, it was probably the first time she came here so late, so Xiaolan seemed even more nervous.

"Ah~ Okay, go in and have a look." Lu Yuan said, and was about to go inside.

"Wait...... Please wait a moment! Kazuo Sugi suddenly stopped Lu Yuan: "Although I am also worried about Mr. Maori's disappearance, but ...... This house is really evil, or ......."

"What else? You don't want to go in? As soon as Lu Yuan heard this cedar tone, he immediately leaned in front of his face, stared at him with a very frightening look, and didn't speak, but the cedar was obviously very scared, and he didn't know what happened in his room just now, anyway, Xiaolan was surprised to see the fir wood nodding in surprise.

"Alright, then, let's go inside." He said, and then walked tremblingly to the gate of the old house, took out a key, and opened the door.

Walking into the front yard, there was a straight road of less than 100 meters, and Lu Yuan really saw the whole picture of this ancient house.

It is a house that does not have many Japanese styles, and it looks like it even has some Western architectural elements, but in fact, a few decades ago, in the early years of the Meiji era, the introduction of Western culture made most of the wealthy people of the time try to develop in this direction, which is why many places in Japan have Western-style buildings such as Western-style buildings.

In other words, this place will be more than 50 years old, to say the least. Although it can be seen that it has been regularly repaired, the imprint of practice has been deeply engraved on every inch of the bricks and wood of this house, and the smell of historical dust can be smelled from afar, at this time, a distinct outline of a three-story building can be seen in the darkness, and every window reflects the moonlight, as if there are countless eyes staring at these three uninvited guests.

Lu Yuan could clearly feel that Xiaolan beside him was trembling.

But Lu Yuan didn't care too much, it was useless to comfort at this time, besides, even if there was a demon and a monster, Xiaolan was scared, and it was estimated that she would be beaten up.

So he turned his head and looked at the key in Kazuo Sugi's hand.

"Who gave you this key?" He asked.

"Oh, it's a lawyer." Shanmu said: "When my father left, I hadn't returned, so the will was given to me by the lawyer, and speaking of which, there is only this key in the will." ”

Lu Yuan frowned: "There is nothing else?" ”

Shanmu shook his head: "No, I also said that my father doesn't like me, so the other inheritances were also given to my younger brother [Yuji Shanmu], as for this house, it should be regarded as his old man's last resort in order to save face before he died." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Yuan also glanced at his mouth helplessly, it seems that the relationship between the father and son is indeed not very good.

Next, Lu Yuan was the first to walk into this building.

The door was still slightly open, and it seemed that the people who had been going back and forth a few days ago were also a little panicked, so that the door did not have time to close.

Entering the building, in front of you, is a large atrium, a wide staircase is in the middle of the hall, extending upwards, you can directly see the second floor of the [Hui] shaped corridor, this architectural style, almost all over the world has been popular.

"Uh...... It doesn't seem to be anything particularly scary. Lu Yuan muttered, and at the same time, he also felt that Xiaolan and Kazuo Shanmu were almost standing behind him.

"Okay, let's start searching the neighborhood and see if we can find some clues." Lu Yuan said helplessly.

Followed by......

"No, let's go together." The remaining two shouted in unison again.

This time, it's a little embarrassing.

"Well, I think it's safer for everyone to be together."

"Yes, I'm not scared, but ...... More people are always better. ”

The two of them quickly explained.

"Okay~" Lu Yuan was also helpless, it was worth agreeing, and then he took the lead directly and walked towards the corridor on the first floor.

Because whether it is Maori and Conan, or Kazuo Sugi's fiancée, they all suddenly disappeared when no one found out, so there is no such thing as a crime scene, and Lu Yuan can only use the most stupid 'carpet search', looking for it room by room.

At the same time, he also took out his phone and looked at the signal on it.

"Hmm...... The signal is full, that is, if the missing person is nearby, it should be possible to get through the phone, but all the missing person's phone cannot be reached, does this mean that they are no longer around at all? Lu Yuan muttered.

"No way, Officer Twilight and I thought about it when we came, but there's only one road around here, and if there is a car passing through or something, it will definitely attract attention, and the missing people are all gone in a certain moment." Xiaolan said.

Lu Yuan nodded: "In other words, it should be that these people deliberately turned off their mobile phones, but ...... Why would they do it? Could it be that there is a murderer or something hidden in this old house? ”

Lu Yuan thought as he searched the surrounding houses.

Suddenly...... In the darkness in front of him, two small green dots slowly emerged, like two eyes, shining strangely in the shadows.

"Ahhhh————h

Lu Yuan's expression was greatly lifted, and he was worried that there was no clue, but he also yelled: "Where to run!" Then he quickly ran towards the dark corner.

Unexpectedly, the moment he left, the two green dots disappeared, and in the next second, Lu Yuan rushed to that position.

However...... It was empty, there was nothing.
