Chapter 458: Xue Sui's Unwillingness
"What do you say? Actually curse us to death? ”
The male and female couples were furious, looking like they wanted to ask Chen Jun for advice, and the owner of the shop, Jin Gu, had to come out to be a peacemaker, "Everyone is out to travel." ”
"Tonight, I will introduce the project activities of our hotel, as well as the prizes that can be harvested."
The shopkeeper clapped his hands, and the maid pulled out a very old-looking book from behind her.
"This is the first time Sherlock Holmes has appeared, and Conan Doyle's famous work ———— the first edition of The Study of Scarlet Letters!"
"Wow~"
The Sherlock Holmes fans present were shocked, even Conan, a hardcore fan.
Looking at that book, it's like a miser looking at Jin Shan, and a womanizer looking at a stunning beauty.
Xue Sui also moved slightly, and Chen Jun poked her arm, "You want this book too?" ”
"Of course." Yukiho nodded, "You're a fan of Agatha Christie, and you're not allowed to be a fan of Conan Doyle?" ”
"I'll help you?" Chen Jun smiled, as if he had a chance to win.
Xue Sui turned her head, "I'm a Sherlock Holmes fan to let you, a Polo fan, win it back, it's not interesting at all, I'll take it myself." ”
"If there is a case this time, let me take action, I have also thought about addicting detectives."
The shopkeeper, Kanaya, had already spoken at this time, "If you want to get this heavy reward, you must complete the super difficult reasoning quiz. ”
"This super difficult reasoning question is just to test how much you admire Mr. Holmes."
The shopkeeper Kanaya spoke in a bold tone and asked the maid to distribute the questionnaire, "Now the maid is sending Sherlock Holmes 1000 questions, and the deadline for payment is before dinner tomorrow, and only those with a total score of 990 or more can participate in the reasoning question and answer after the dinner." ”
Mori Kogoro asked, "What happens if I don't get a score of 990 or more?" ”
"I'm sorry about that!"
The owner of the shop, Kanaya, immediately changed his indifferent look, "Except for Mr. Mori and Mr. Ito, the rest of the people who choose to participate in the game, if they can't get more than 990 points, then please leave my hotel." ”
The shopkeeper was unusual, which surprised many people.
And the attitude is extremely strong, so that many people don't speak, including the couple just now, even if they are not convinced, they can only hold back.
"For the sake of prudence, all of you have to hand over your mobile phones and reference books to the maid, and I don't want any cheating in your crowd."
Maori Kogoro said: "It's okay if I don't participate in this super quiz." ”
"Of course Mr. Maori." The shopkeeper smiled slightly and added, "Even if you don't hand in your phone, the inn has a screen and a monitor that will monitor your status at all times." ”
"Remember, anyone who chooses to cheat will be counted as 0 zero."
"Boss, boss, can I participate?" Conan raised his hand and looked very interested.
"Absolutely."
Everyone got the super questionnaire from the maid, and Chen Jun didn't want to participate in a sorority that was unfriendly to him, an Agatha fan.
He watched the crowd closely.
I saw that the owner of the store made many, many unreasonable demands, even if he installed the equipment that violated the **, many people were not very dissatisfied with their faces.
In the face of antique-level treasured first edition books, all Sherlock Holmes fans can accept it.
From this, he also learned the identity of the male and female couple, the boy's name is Shanghai Yanren, currently 22 years old, is the head of a university reasoning research society, and the female girl Reiko Ohki, currently 21 years old, is a member of the reasoning research society.
At night.
Xue Sui sat at the desk with high interest and wrote the questionnaire questions, frowning from time to time, thinking about it.
"You're still going to do it?"
"That's right."
"The questions in this test paper are really interesting, and there are a lot of questions that are out of the way, and I wonder if I fail to live up to it, wouldn't I be very sorry for the good intentions of the store owner?"
"Do you really want that Scarlet Study?"
"Of course, is this still fake?"
"There are many ways to get it."
"Don't use crooked ways!" Xue Sui concentrated on answering the question, "I have to rely on my own efforts to get the book." ”
Chen Jun was speechless and covered the quilt to sleep.
From the system, I learned that he had perfectly completed the detection of 3 cases, and gained an additional 3 months.
If that's it, you'll be able to stay here for a long time.
The next morning.
The maid prepared a hearty breakfast early.
Everyone ate to their heart's content and enjoyed the treatment of being at home.
Some fans who stayed up late last night to write the test questions couldn't help but uncover the puzzle and ask the maid, "Why didn't you see the innkeeper, where did he go?" ”
"Tell him to come out and change the test questions."
The maid hesitated, "My lord wants me to entertain you, and he won't come out until after dinner." ”
After a full day, the clock went from twelve o'clock in the evening to three and a half in the morning.
The crowd that had been sitting at the table, waiting for the shopkeeper Kanaya to come over and correct the test questions, became more and more agitated.
Because the shopkeeper has not been seen for a long time.
"Damn, I can't stand it, I'm going back to my room to sleep."
"The test questions that took me a day to write, no one saw them at all, and the hospitality was too poor." A man said angrily.
"It seems that the rumors are true, this is a hoax, making 1,000 test questions so difficult, it is not a good assessment at all, it is clearly a group of us gathered together, deliberately showing off his collection. And it's called a festival for Sherlock Holmes fans, which is a joke. The female soothsayer said.
is in the midst of everyone's disappointment.
Suddenly, a black sedan drove out of the garage outside the hotel.
"It's the shopkeeper in the car, he's driving."
Conan's voice screamed, leaving everyone who was leaving.
The boy who was the head of the reasoning research society next to him, Hu Shiyanshi, said proudly: "I just said, it must be the shopkeeper who is conducting a reasoning assessment on us." ”
"How can a real test question be just a piece of paper?"
"You see, the real reasoning has now begun."
All the Sherlock Holmes fans looked at each other with blazing eyes, and a little excitement appeared on their tired faces.
Is the real Sherlock Holmes quiz?
They turned around and watched intently as the sedan slowly drove out.
The direction of the road is the cliff.
"yes, the real reasoning has begun to die."
Chen Jun looked ahead, "The mystery of the shopkeeper's death, please answer it!" ”
After saying that, he rushed out quickly, and everyone was immediately frightened when they heard this.
Why did the sedan heading in the direction of the cliff show no signs of diversion, and the speed is getting faster and faster.
Everyone was unconscious, and their faces changed drastically.
Conan had already run out and followed closely behind Chen Jun, while Xiaolan, Yukisui, Maori Kogoro and others also followed.
Maori Kogoro yelled: "Boss Kanaya, stop quickly, there is a cliff on the other side, a cliff!" ”
The figure inside turned a deaf ear and didn't even look back.
The sedan was getting faster and faster, and it was nearly 40 yards.
"Whew!"
A graceful parabola swept through the air.
The whole car drove into the sky like a swallow, and then fell to the ground under the influence of gravity!
————
The boss of Jingu, who was alive the day before, is now dead.
Death was so bizarre and terrifying that it frightened some Sherlock Holmes fans.
At the bottom of the cliff is the sea, and there are no branches in between, so whether you survive or not, you will definitely die if you fall down.
Mori Kogoro announced, "Manager Kanaya, I have fallen into the sea with my car and people. ”
"It should be suicide, I think he must not want you to get that Sherlock Holmes book, so he will leave it with him."
After saying that, Mori Kogoro laughed, laughing at his 'masterful' reasoning without loopholes.
Conan: "...."
"That's just nonsense."
The young head of the Reasoning Research Society, Kenju Ichichi, mocked Maori, "I wonder if your sleeping Kogoro was tricked, and Mr. Kanaya sees you as a person who stands side by side with Sherlock Holmes, and is bullshit." ”
"Bullshit reasoning."
Maori Kogoro's face turned red, "What are you talking about, stinky boy?" ”
Hu Shiyan said unhurriedly: "It is entirely possible that Mr. Jingu was murdered. ”
"First of all, I saw that he was driving at a relatively slow speed at first, and I thought that as long as the murderer killed Mr. Kanaya in advance and put the gear in D gear, the car would move forward automatically."
"The murderer's location may be in the garage!"
"And the murderer is likely to be among us!"
Mori Kogoro was not really stupid, and questioned, "Then why does the car accelerate and get faster and faster while the car is moving?" ”
"It's not human, how can you do it?"
"This?"
Shanghai Shiyan couldn't answer this point, and his face was embarrassed and hesitant.
Maori Kogoro was triumphant and mocked: "Young man, you have reasoned too much, not every case can be located as a murder." ”
"And, there's another thing that's weird."
"But when I got closer to the car, I heard a wind-like sound coming from the car, not the sound of the engine, how can I explain that?"
The soothsayer in the crowd said, "It must be the sound of air conditioning, it must have been turned off in the first place, but the engine started and blew on its own." ”
"Indeed!"
Reiko Oki of the Reasoning Research Club said, "It's been very hot lately, Kenten, and when we came here, the car was air-conditioned." ”
"What's the matter?"
Some Sherlock Holmes fans vented their frustration, "Suicide disguised as homicide, let's watch a good show, and put on a show with our lives, it's really fun." ”
Most of them walked back to the hotel.
Xue Sui didn't follow the crowd, bent down and looked at the traces of car marks on the ground.
"You want to investigate?" Chen Jun joked.
Yukiho nodded, "I also want to experience what it's like to be a detective, and I don't think Mr. Kanaya's death is that simple." ”
"What do you think?"
Chen Jun was extremely sure: "He killed!" ”
"So fast, how do you know?"
Chen Jun smiled, "You want to know?" ”
Xue Sui snorted coldly, "I'm going to investigate the case myself." ”
Chen Jun shook his head, helpless against Xue Sui's occasional whim.
I saw that on the edge of the cliff, Xue Sui and Conan were lowering their heads to observe the car marks carefully, the figures of one big and one small were very interesting, and it was obvious that the two of them had thought of the murderer's conjecture together.
It's just that.
Xue Sui is such a smart woman.
Will there be doubts about Conan's identity?
Chen Jun returned to the hotel, but the people in the living room were already in a mess, and they were all anxious and grumpy.
"What happened?"
Kogoro Mori replied, "All the phones in the living room were destroyed, along with our personal phones. ”
"The murderer cuts off the sight!"
Chen Jun muttered, and this sentence happened to be heard by Maori Kogoro, "You also think there is a murderer?" He asked in a deliberative tone.
"With you, 99% of the cases you experience are homicides."
Chen Jun complained, "This is something that you don't have to think about, you should figure out the rules around you." He blinked, wondering if Mori Kogoro understood.
At this time, Yukiho and Conan walked in.
"I looked at the garage, and the oil in the garage was basically all leaking, and the battery was out of power, so the car couldn't start at all."
"Oh no, then it's hard for us to get out at all, and it's hard to even call the police."
The crowd realized the problem.
The speechless Hushi Kenten, who had just been questioned by Maori Kogoro, raised his head and laughed wildly, "Hahaha, Mr. Maori, I'll just say it, there must be a murderer here, now what do you say?" ”
This time it was Mori Kogoro's turn to refute it.
He gave Chen Jun a hint of a look, Chen Jun understood what he meant, and immediately relieved him, "There is indeed a murderer, and you see." ”
"From the moment he broke the phone, isolated us, couldn't call the police, couldn't start the car, it almost made this place a temporary state of isolation."
"This only proves that the murderer's murderous thoughts are still ongoing.
"That means he may have assassinated each of you in different ways, and maybe even hid in this room."
Chen Jun suggested, "If you don't want to die in vain, then please get together and don't easily move around and leave the team." ”
Many Sherlock Holmes fans looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Easier said than done, not everyone can be a real Sherlock Holmes when faced with a real homicide.
After all, staring at the corpse can exclude a large number of people.
"Oh, yes."
Mori Kogoro suddenly thought and pointed to the corner of the wall, "Isn't there a monitor on the wall, I should have captured the murderer's whereabouts." ”
The maid bowed and apologized, "I'm sorry Mr. Mori, but that's actually a fake, and Mr. Kanaya deliberately said this to prevent anyone from cheating." ”
"Damn, we were actually tricked by him."
"But..."
Mori Kogoro's eyes shrank, revealing a glow of wisdom, "We knew that the murderer asked the owner Kanaya to start the car at about 3:30 today, and a few hours ago, the six of us in the restaurant were waiting for Mr. Kanaya to announce the answer. ”
"In this way, it is impossible to commit only these six people."
Chen Jun remained calm, but at this time, Xue Sui corrected Maori in a loud voice, "Mr. Maori, have you forgotten that the time of death of the deceased can be faked?" ”
"What's more, starting the car at 3:30 a.m. does not mean that the real cause of Mr. Kanaya's death was at that time, or even a few hours ago."
Conan nodded, secretly agreeing with the inference.
"Before the body of the deceased has been truly autopsied, everything cannot be determined too early." Xue Sui looked at Chen Jun and said jokingly, "I'm right, Mr. Forensic Doctor." ”
Xue Sui made it clear that she wanted to solve the case this time, and Chen Jun had no choice but to nod in cooperation.
Xiaolan stretched out her hand to make a cheering action, feeling that the current Sister Xuesui is simply too beautiful, and she has the demeanor of Big Brother Ito when reasoning.
It's just that no one thought of it.
"Hahaha!!"
Reiko Oki of the Reasoning Research Club suddenly looked up and laughed, "I know who the murderer is." ”
Everyone at the scene looked over.
She lit a cigarette with a calm expression, and the corners of her mouth rose: "I already know who the murderer is, the murderer's modus operandi and the decisive evidence!" ”
"How do you know?"
Xue Sui was a little unwilling and hard to believe.
