Conan's Almighty Extraction

Chapter 36 The Truth 5 Years Ago

In this small room, there are a lot of kitchen utensils and appliances. It is obviously a small kitchen.

With the help of the weak candlelight from the candlestick in the room, Shiraiwa Maha saw a strangely dressed woman who was concentrating on cooking food, adding some ingredients to it from time to time, but the other party did not notice Shiraiwa Maha's arrival.

"Wait, this déjà vu seems to be an event in the original book."

After seeing the strange woman's appearance clearly, Baiyan Maha found that she was very similar to the hostess in the family portrait of the original resident who was found in the bedroom before. After thinking hard for a long time, he finally remembered a plot in the original book.

According to the original book, the strange woman is the hostess of this house.

Five years ago, her son Akio killed his father by accident. In order to prevent his son from leaving a criminal record, she disguised the scene of the crime as a robbery and murder scene, and locked her son who was about to surrender himself in the dungeon in the basement. The son will be released after the retroactive period expires.

After figuring out the situation of the haunted house, Shiraiwa Maha quietly evacuated from the small kitchen, and after Mitsuhiko came out of the bathroom, he took him back to where Conan and the others were.

"This is the end of the adventure, everyone keep quiet and leave with me." Shiraiwa Maha didn't want to frighten the children of the Detective Boys, and planned to send them out of the haunted house and come back to deal with the case.

"Eh? Are you going back now?" The enthusiastic Yuantai and the other three looked at Baiyan Maoyu whose tone became serious, and said reluctantly: "Brother Zhenyu still has many rooms that have not been explored?"

"I just discovered something in the haunted house. If you stay here, it may be dangerous, so don't waste time, leave with me first."

Worried that everyone would be discovered by the weird woman, Baiyan Maha urged in a low voice, and at the same time gave Conan a look, signaling him to help persuade others.

"Okay, brother Zhenyu won't harm us. If there are evil spirits here, we will be in danger." Conan understood what Baiyan Zhenyu meant, and frightened Yuantai and the others with ghosts, and tiptoed to Go up the stairs.

Under Conan's actions to lead by example, Yuantai and the three did not insist on continuing to explore, and honestly followed Shiraiwa Maha to leave the haunted house and return to their respective homes.

After sending Yuantai and the others home, Shiraiwa Maha took Conan to the haunted house again, and told Conan what he had seen before.

After listening to what Shiraiwa Maha said, many thoughts flashed through Conan's mind. After a while, he confirmed again: "Brother Zhenyu, did you read it correctly, is it really the wife of the original owner?"

"How could it be wrong?" Bai Yanzhenyu nodded, and replied with certainty: "Although she is older than the family photo, her appearance has not changed."

"From this point of view, she is likely to be related to the murder case mentioned by Ayumi five years ago." Conan's intuition in solving cases is extremely keen, and he can deduce part of it with only a few clues. the truth.

"Well, you are right, but what is the specific relationship, let's go find out and follow me closely." Although Shiraiwa Maha knew the truth, it was not convenient to tell Conan, so he had to take Conan to solve the case himself. event.

After sneaking into the haunted house again, Shiraiwa Maha took Conan to the small kitchen on the second floor, and found that the weird woman had already left, apparently cooking the food.

Shiraiwa Maha was not worried about the other party leaving, so he shone the flashlight on the ground, pointed to the footprints and wheel marks in the dust on the floor and said, "Conan, let's follow the footprints and ruts, and you are responsible for guarding against the direction behind."

"Understood." Conan nodded, turned around and guarded the dark aisle behind him, and walked backwards with Shiraiwa Maha who slowed down.

The rutted footprints on the ground, the smooth staircase extending from the small kitchen to the other side of the second floor of the haunted house, and finally disappearing in a hidden house behind the first floor.

"Conan, get ready to go in, be careful."

After Shiraiwa Maha reminded Conan, he slowly approached the door, looked in through the gap, and found an empty household food cart in the corner of the room, and the woman was not in the room.

"It's safe, come in." Baiyan Maha knew that the other party should have entered the basement, and immediately pushed open the door gently, leading Conan into the room.

Conan's nose fluttered slightly, he walked to the food cart, touched it with his hand, and said in a low voice: "The cart is still warm, and the room is filled with the smell of meat, it seems that the woman you mentioned hasn't been away for too long .”

Bai Yanmao pretended to think for a while, and then "reasoned": "Such a high-end mansion should have a basement, if I guessed correctly, she should have hidden in the basement, and this room, it is very likely That's where the entrance to the basement is hidden."

Just as the two of them were about to find the entrance to the basement, there was a sound that sounded like a roar and a wail suddenly under the ground not far from the cart.

Conan shined a flashlight there, and found a device on the floor that resembled a door handle, and quickly reminded: "Brother Zhenyu, look there."

"This is a secret door. It seems that my guess is correct, Conan, let me open it."

Unlike in the original book, Shiraiwa Maha's strength far exceeds that of Conan, so he easily opened the secret door, revealing the stairs leading to the basement.

"let's go."

Shiraiwa Maha, a daring artist, walked down the stairs and found a half-closed wooden door at the end of the stairs.

Dazzling lights projected from the basement behind the wooden door, and at the same time, the sound of a man and a woman arguing also came from inside.

"My poor child, you must be having nightmares again. Five years have passed since that incident. Don't you forget about it? No matter how painful you are, the dead will never come back. Alright, let's eat something."

"Ah, I don't want to eat, I don't want to eat anything, let me out, let me out quickly"

"Zhaofu, the reason why I locked you here for you is not to make you suffer. I am thinking about your future. As long as the retrospective period of the case expires, I will release you, so here Before that, please be patient."

"Mom, please, let me go, I can't bear this kind of torture."

……

After listening to the quarrel between the two, Bai Yanmao felt a little emotional, maternal love is indeed the most selfless and greatest love in the world.

However, although he expressed his understanding emotionally, Shiraiwa Maha did not agree with her approach, and was ready to help Akio get rid of his inner torment, so he opened the wooden door and walked in.

"Who are you?!"

The weird woman was taken aback by the sudden appearance of a stranger, and immediately reacted, pulling out a knife with a ferocious expression, and was about to kill Bai Yanmao and the other two.

The weird woman is just an ordinary person, and she can deal with elementary school students like Conan, but she is not enough to face the mighty Shiraiwa Maha, and Shiraiwa Maha easily grabs the knife and controls her.

"Ma'am, the murderer who killed your husband five years ago was the man who was imprisoned for five years, that is, your son."

Seeing that Shiraiwa Maha was in control of the situation, Conan deduced the truth of the incident five years ago through the previous clues and the conversation he just heard.

After Conan's reasoning was over, Bai Yanzhenyu sighed, and said earnestly: "Madam, although your actions can save him from legal sanctions, do you have the heart to let him be condemned by his conscience for the rest of his life?"

In the reality of the secret exposure, her son's painful persuasion became the last straw that crushed her, causing the old lady to break down and cry, and finally decided to respect her son's choice, and went to the police station with her son to surrender and plead guilty.
