Conan's Devil Child Comes to the World

Chapter 401 The Truth about Haunting (First update, ask for tickets)
(ˉ▽￣～)Cut~~
Compared to Mori Kogoro and the others who hadn't recovered yet, Suzuki Seimei pouted with disdain.

The strange ghost just now is indeed easily reminiscent of the legendary ghost, but Suzuki Seimei has already seen through the true face of that ghost.

Because the lights in the corridor were not turned on, it was difficult for Mao Lilan and the others to see what the ghost was?
But Suzuki Seimei is different. He has 16 years of pure internal power in his body. With the blessing of these internal powers, it is still very easy to see things at night.

So Suzuki Seimei could tell at a glance that the strange ghost just now was actually a group of moths gathered on the screen window.

It was obvious that someone had smeared something on the screen window in advance that could attract moths, making those moths gather into a ghostly shape.

And this person who deliberately pretended to be a ghost in the apartment was naturally Fancho Kikuji who went to open the window just now, but deliberately didn't say that he saw the moth.

Combined with Suzuki Seimei's [Evil Ghost Mask] that was signed on Bancho Kikuji before, which is more suitable for pranks, it is reasonable.

It's just that Suzuki Seimei couldn't figure it out, why did Bancho Kikuji deliberately pretend to be a ghost to scare away other people living in this apartment?

"Impossible! How can there be ghosts in this world? I don't believe it. Someone must be pretending to be a ghost!"

Kogoro Mori, who recovered from the shock, pushed away Kikuji Bancho who was standing by the window, and leaned half of his body out of the window.

According to Mori Kogoro's thinking, someone must be hiding on the balcony outside the window, deliberately pretending to be haunted.

"Fuck!!!"

When Mori Kogoro leaned out of the window, he almost fainted due to fear of heights. There was no balcony outside the window, and his legs shrank back trembling in fright.

Seeing Kogoro Mori's embarrassed look, Bancho Kikuji couldn't help gloating: "Mr. Mori, there are no balconies or handrails outside the second floor of our apartment, so it is impossible for someone to climb to such a high place." from somewhere."

"Then...the ghost image just now is really..."

When Yuanzi heard this, he subconsciously grasped Mao Lilan's hand, already regretting coming here.

Mao Lilan said with a pale face: "And...and the ghost just now is not like a normal figure at all, its edges have been shaking with the wind, and its shape was incomplete before we opened the window, It's like..."

"It's as if a ghost turns to ashes when it hits the sun, right?"

Before Mao Lilan finished speaking, Otonashi walked out of the room yawning, rubbed his somewhat confused eyes and said: "Actually, I have seen it on this window before, that one Miserable ghost, no wonder it turned to ashes.

Presumably it should be the wronged soul of the woman named Tian Zhilei who was burned to a scorched corpse in the park four years ago! "

Conan's expression changed slightly when he heard the words, and he asked curiously, "Grandpa, how do you know that the deceased is Tian Zhilei?"

"The police found the girl's driver's license on the charred corpse afterwards, and the tooth model was also completely matched."

Otonashi touched Conan's small head with her hand, and sighed, "It's a pity that the two murderers who killed that girl four years ago have not been arrested so far, so her wronged soul can't be reborn!"

"Two murderers?"

Hearing this, Mori Kogoro couldn't help but said, "So there were still witnesses at that time?"

"That's right! Someone happened to pass by the park that day and saw two men standing next to the burning corpse."

Otonashi nodded, walked to the window, pointed to the electric pole outside and said: "The wanted portrait on the electric pole is one of the criminals who killed the girl four years ago, but the witnesses didn't see it clearly. The appearance of another criminal."

"Two prisoners? One of them is wanted, and the other has not been seen clearly. Could it be that..."

A flash of light suddenly flashed in Suzuki Seimei's mind, and he instantly understood why Bancho Kikuji wanted to play tricks and scare the residents away.

Based on what Otonashi Yoshiichi said before, the earliest haunted incidents were reported here. It was after he got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet and saw a group of will-o’-the-wisps on the roof of the unfinished building next door, and then the hauntings appeared one after another. of.

If Suzuki Seimei guessed correctly, the murderer wanted by the police should be hiding in the unfinished building next to the apartment.

As soon as Otonashi Fang saw the will-o'-the-wisp, it was very likely that it was a cigarette butt, or the phone screen lit up.

As for Fancho Kikuji, who deliberately pretended to be a ghost to scare people, he should be the other prisoner who was not seen clearly by the witnesses.

Fancho Kikuji was probably worried that the residents in the apartment would find out the secret that his accomplice was hiding in the unfinished building next door, so he deliberately pretended to be a ghost.

Haibara Ai noticed Suzuki Seimei's slightly raised mouth, and asked curiously, "Seimei, have you seen through the tricks of the ghost outside the window?"

Although Hui Yuanai didn't know what method was used to create the ghost image outside the window just now, she had already seen through the method by which the toilet water turned red in the toilet.

Since the toilet water in the toilet turns red because someone made it on purpose, then other haunting phenomena must also be man-made.

Facing Hui Yuan Ai's curious eyes, Suzuki Seimei didn't mean to hide anything, and leaned into her ear and whispered: "The ghost outside the window just now was actually formed by a group of moths."

"Moth?"

Hui Yuanai was taken aback for a moment at first, and then showed a look of bewilderment.

No wonder the edge of the ghost just now moved with the wind like a flame, it turned out to be the wings of moths.

After learning the true face of the ghost outside the window, Haibara Ai immediately set her sights on Kikuji Fancho. It was obvious that the guy who rushed to open the window just now was the culprit for pretending to be a ghost.

After Suzuki Seimei finished whispering with Haibara Ai, he turned his attention to Conan.

I saw Conan standing next to the toilet, sniffing the strange smell coming out of the toilet with his nose.

"This is... the smell of ammonia, I understand!"

After Conan carefully smelled the smell coming out of the toilet for a while, a white light suddenly flashed through the lenses of the black-rimmed glasses, instantly seeing through the way the toilet water turns red.

Amonia is commonly known as "ammonia"!
As long as phenolphthalein is dissolved in alcohol, a colorless liquid will be obtained.

And this colorless liquid, as long as it is fused with the same colorless ammonia, it will instantly turn red like magic.
