Chapter 17: The Incident at the Dusk Annex (4)
For pre-dinner entertainment, everyone gathered in the entertainment room, playing and waiting for the start of dinner.
White Horse and Motegi played snooker, White Horse's skills seemed to be superior, even if the yellow ball and the white ball were surrounded by red balls, but he still let the ball hit the yellow ball accurately after collision, which made Motegi have to sigh: "You kid is really good!" ”
"Yikes! Where, you've won a prize. Hakuba laughed.
On the side, Lin Fei and Qianjian's mother-in-law were playing chess, only to see that Qianjian's mother-in-law's white son was approaching step by step, Lin Fei's sunspot had entered a desperate situation, Qianjian's mother-in-law put down the horse, approached Lin Fei's king, and said with a smile: "How is it?" Mystery detective Lin Feijun? ”
Lin Fei saw that the general trend had gone, and helplessly raised his hands to express his surrender: "Mother-in-law, I said that I am not very good at playing chess, but you don't show mercy, this is too ruthless!" ”
"Ma Ma, playing chess is like a battlefield, and it is impossible to show mercy on the battlefield!" Chima said with a smile.
At this time, Maori was playing Go with Maehara Shiki, Maehara Shiki fell into white and killed one of Maori's big dragons, pushed his glasses, and Maehara Shiki said: "Mr. Maori, it is estimated that I will win after thirty-five hands!" ”
Maori scratched his head and said depressedly: "Damn......"
"Great," Xiaolan cheered while playing poker with Miss Gunda and Conan, "Look, look, it's Junko, it looks like this one belongs to me again." ”
However, Ikumi Gunda held her chin at this time and said with a smile: "It's a foul to come out of the old man, Lan Sauce!" Look, isn't the J on your far left overlapping two of them? ”
"Huh?!" Xiao Lan froze for a moment, looked down and looked carefully, only to find that what Gunda Yumi said was true: "Really...... Really! Sorry, I didn't notice, but these two cards seem to have been glued together from the beginning. Xiaolan said as she separated the J.
Suddenly there was a scream in the room, it turned out that it was not anything else that glued the two cards together, it was blood, the blood after drying, after hearing Xiaolan's scream, everyone immediately surrounded it.
"It's amazing, I didn't expect it to be stained with blood." Senma mother-in-law said.
"Every item in this room is the same as it was at the time of the crime, almost never touched!" Lin Fei said.
"So, even this room ......," Xiaolan was so frightened that her voice was a little distorted.
"I've kept you waiting," said the maid, stooping down at the door, "dinner is ready, please move to the dining room, and my master will be waiting for you." ”。
"The protagonist is finally going to appear!" Haruki Motegi said with emotion.
"It's so exciting!" Senjian mother-in-law said.
On the way to the restaurant, Maolilan muttered to herself that she had no appetite anymore. Also, for Xiaolan, as long as the thought of leaving blood stains everywhere in this house, she can't help but feel a little creepy, not to mention any appetite. Of course, everyone present, except for Xiaolan, did not have such a problem, after all, they were all famous detectives, and this kind of scene could not scare them.
The dining room is not far from the living room, and after walking for a while, everyone will arrive at their destination.
"The restaurant has arrived." Aki Ishihara opened the doors on both sides for them and stood aside, "Please come in." ”
They had only taken a step before they were startled by the dress of the man directly opposite. Like a man from a haunted house, he wears a purple hood that extends to his shoulders and wears a suit.
"Hey, what kind of dress is this?" Shigeki Haruki immediately said, "Did you watch too much TV?" ”
The man's red eyes were slanted upward, and his voice as thick as grinding stone came from under the hood: "Eight admirable detectives, welcome to the contemptible Twilight Pavilion. Okay, let's go to your seats first. ”
Although the detectives were unhappy, they could only do as this man said, and Dashang Zhushan also came to the restaurant at this time, and before entering the restaurant, he instructed the maid: "Then, bring the dishes in the order I just said!" ”
Seeing that the maid agreed, Dashang Zhushan walked to his place, and after everyone was seated, the mysterious man spoke again: "Next, the reason why I invite you to come here is to ask you to help me find out the treasure hidden somewhere in this museum, this is a huge wealth that I have accumulated over the years, but I want to gamble your lives." ”
"Bet...... Risking your life? As Mori Kogoro asked, an explosion sounded outside.
"What was that sound just now?" As soon as Ojo Zhushan heard this, he couldn't help but stand up.
"There's nothing to worry about," the mystery man continued, as if it were a trivial matter, "I'm just trying to limit your movements. I'm always in the position of being chased by you, and I want to experience it in a different role once in a while. The bridge you just passed on the road was also blown up by me at the same time, and even if you have a car, you can't escape. Of course, there are no telephones here, and there is no signal from mobile phones, so it is impossible to ask for help outside. In other words, this is a game where only the person who finds the treasure will give him half of the treasure, and will also tell him how to get out of here. ”
"Hmph," Haruki Motegi got up from his seat, "I don't want to mess around," he walked behind the owner, "especially someone like you who only wears a mask and hides." He tore off his hood, and what he saw was a dummy, a round dummy with a diameter of five or six centimeters concave like a concave mirror.
"Well, you can't fight hungry, so please enjoy dinner." The mysterious man is unmoved.
"Putting a megaphone on the head of a mannequin is damnable." Haruki Motegi angrily walked back to his seat.
"Who is it? Who the hell did this kind of thing? Maori was puzzled.
"Ahh Isn't it clearly written on the invitation? "The Phantom of God's Forsaken Boy". ”
"......" Maori obviously didn't figure out what this meant, so he asked who the inviter was.
"Phantom in English is 'phantom', which means that it is elusive and has no real body." Haruki Motegi begins the first analysis.
Qianjian descended to take over, "And the word 'boy' next to the human character refers to the phantom beast, don't we often say 'dog' or 'horse'?" ”
"And the 'forsaken beast of God' in the New Testament refers to goats that have not been blessed by God." Ogami Zhushan said.
"In other words, the whole 'God's forsaken boy' refers to the baby goat." Takashi Maehara pushed his glasses and smiled.
"In English, goats pronounce 'goat', but goats pronounce it like that, KID. ”
"What...... What the?! Maori Kogoro was shocked.
"Maybe it's easier to understand that," Lin Fei also added with a smile: "Kidthephantomthief." ”
"Hey, it's hard to ......" a drop of sweat slipped from the corner of Maori Kogoro's forehead.
Mao Lilan leaned forward a little, "Could it be that ......?"
"That's right, the prey that catches your eye has never missed," Chima admired without hesitation, "and his gorgeous technique is like magic." ”。
Ikumi Gunda continued: "There are many faces and voices like stars, and the genius criminals who play the police in the palm of their hands. ”
"A big dish for our detectives to salivate." From the mouth of the food detective Ojo Zhuzen, he can only say this kind of thing, maybe for him who likes food, he gives the monster thief Kidd the highest evaluation.
"The crime success rate is 100%, and I am currently the only criminal who can escape from my hands." Shiki Maehara added.
Haruki Motegi also did not hesitate to send a sentence: "It's crazy to want to send him to prison, that nasty villain." ”
"And, the only one who can disturb my thoughts," said the White Horse Detective, clasping his hands together and unhurriedly, "that's what the people who saw him in his snow-white costume called him at night—Kidd the Strange Thief." ”
As soon as Bai Ma's words fell, Lin Fei immediately felt a gaze swept over him covertly, Lin Fei smiled, he knew that all the detectives present had evaluated Kidd, but he didn't evaluate it, which undoubtedly made Kidd a little unhappy, but Lin Fei just wanted to achieve this effect.
'Kidd, the strange thief, what an honest fellow, when he heard his name, he instantly revealed a little bit of aura, your kind of cold and cold aura. As the ninth detective, Conan sat quietly in his chair at this time, a smile appeared on his face, and he spoke in his heart about the evaluation of Kidd the strange thief, and it was obvious that Conan had already felt Kidd's tail. That's right, that guy is there, right in this hall. I don't know what your prey is, but do you really have a way to fool the nine detectives present? ’
========================================================
To tell the truth, compared to the Kidd series with Kidd as the protagonist, the author still prefers Kidd in Conan, just like the magic technique, once the magic is exposed and loses its mystery, then the observability will drop significantly, and in the same way, once the monster thief Kidd takes off his disguise and becomes a fast fight, if he loses his mystery, it will feel boring to look at it again. So the author personally thinks that Kidd, the monster thief in Conan, is more handsome! Although it's the same person, embarrassed!
