chapter 51
"Miss!"

"Miss Lihua!"

A group of people searched everywhere in the villa, but they never saw Lihua Sijing: "Miss Lihua, answer what you hear, don't play any more!"

"Strange, I can't find it anywhere..."

"Could it be that she got lost because she walked into the woods by herself?"

"It must be so," Mifune said dissatisfied, "She must think it's fun to play us like this!"

"Okay," Ichitaka persuaded, "No matter what, everyone should go to the woods to look for it again."

"That's the only way to go. We can't leave that young lady alone."

Gao Cheng frowned and walked into the woods. In the thunderous night, the woods were gloomy and looked a little scary. He couldn't help but think of the bandage monster incident last time.

He still can't forget the head that was dismembered at that time...

"Boom!" There was another burst of thunder, and it seemed that it was going to rain.

Gao Cheng came back to his senses and shook his head, there should be no reason for such a coincidence.

"It's going to rain soon, let's look separately, we must find Missy quickly!" Liutian rushed into the woods first.

The group dispersed quickly, but Gao Cheng didn't dare to run around, he was not familiar with this place at all, it wouldn't be fun if he lost himself instead of being found.

Thinking about the pain of getting lost in the mountains when he went to Suzuki Villa last time, he didn't want to come again.

"Miss Lihua, can you hear me?" Gao Cheng followed Sanfuan, shouting at the top of his voice to look for someone, but there was no response at all, only the faint shouts from the other direction.

After a while, the cold raindrops fell, and the patter became bigger and bigger.

"Damn it, this young lady is really going to cause trouble," Mifune stopped, "Detective boy, let's go back to the villa first, maybe that young lady has already gone back by herself."

"Don't you think something's wrong?" Gao Cheng frowned, "No matter how much you joke around, it won't be like this. Miss Lihua hasn't responded...Maybe something happened..."

"Hmph, she is that kind of person, and now she must be laughing at us being played by her like a clown."

Mifune snorted, turned around and said, "Anyway, I'm going back first. If you want to play a detective game, go ahead and look for it, but it's easy to get lost in this forest."

"Boom!" There was another muffled thunder, and Gao Cheng hurried back to the villa with the three boats against the rain.

At this time, several other people had come back and were gathering around the fountain in front of the villa.

"What's wrong?" Gao Cheng's heart sank.

"It's Nikaido, Nikaido..."

Several other people looked at Nikaido lying on the ground in horror: "He seems to be drowned in the water by someone!"

"How could this be? He was fine just now..."

"Who the hell would do such a thing?"

"Hmph!" Mifune said coldly, "There happens to be one person right now, she is the most suspicious among us, Miss Lihua who is missing now!"

"Mifune, how could Miss Lihua do such a thing?"

"You can't say that now, Ms. Lihua may have been killed." Gao Cheng squatted beside his body for a while to check, interrupting the noise of the crowd, "Anyway, everyone should go back to the villa now, and call the police by the way. , what's the matter, wait until the police arrive..."

"No way, Detective Chenghu," Granny Mi said at the gate of the villa, "I've tried it, but the phone doesn't even work!"

"what?"

"Can't the mobile phone work?" Gao Cheng asked with a headache.

"It's useless, the signal in this place is very poor, and I can't get out."

"In this way, we are trapped here..."

Gao Cheng's expression was condensed and he cheered up. It is no longer a joke if someone dies. This time it was a premeditated murder, and the murderer is likely to be among these people in the villa, except for Sanchuan who was with him just now. Everyone else is suspect.

"By the way," Gojo Xiu thought, "Detective Kido, just use your bicycle to go down the mountain and call the police..."

"No, it's raining now, and it's too dangerous to ride a bicycle," Liutian pondered, "We can only wait for the chairman to send someone to pick us up after dawn. I think everyone should sit down and have a cup of coffee first, and then we can talk about it tomorrow morning... Aunt Mi , could you make some coffee, please?"

"Okay, I'll go right away."

"Then I'll go to the bathroom."

"Wait for me, I'll go too."

Sanfuan and others left the living room one after another, and Liutian followed suit: "I'll go to the sink first and get some towels over here, I think everyone must be wet by now..."

"sorry to bother you."

Gao Cheng carefully observed these people, and reminded: "The murderer is unknown now, so you'd better not leave alone."

Every time he attends a banquet, there will be murders. He doesn't know whether it's luck or misfortune.

I don't know if anyone will be killed. We must solve the case quickly...

Waiting for the gap between several people, Gao Cheng looked at the increasing rain outside, hurried to the woods and moved the bicycle under the eaves of the villa.

Like those cars, his bicycle had a flat tire, the murderer was a beast...

Gritting his teeth, Gao Cheng looked at his tires, and conveniently summoned Lake Toya and pinned it to his waist.

But in this way, the culprits must be those in the villa, and there are only a few people who know that he is cycling in the woods...

When they returned to the living room, everyone was already wiping their wet hair with towels, and none of them showed anything unusual, or rather, everyone still looked so suspicious.

"But why was Nikaido killed?" Gojo Ou asked puzzled.

"Who knows..."

"About this," Gao Cheng sat down in the living room, looked at everyone and said, "Mr. Nikaido seems to have said before that Miss Lihua's marriage partner was decided two years ago. I think this may be the motive for the murder."

"How is it possible... Are you doubting us?"

"Yeah, detective boy," Mifune said with a chuckle, meeting Gao Cheng's gaze, "do you think we will kill him just because of his words? That's too ridiculous, and when Nikaido died, I've always been with you."

"Mr. Mifune is indeed not the murderer," Gao Cheng said sharply, "I was just thinking, what happened two years ago, can you tell me? What happened two years ago?"

"This……"

When everyone saw that Gao Cheng seemed to be a different person, they couldn't help being stunned. When they noticed Gao Cheng's Toya Lake pinned to his waist, they realized belatedly that the boy in front of him was not an ordinary kid, but a man who could bear The famous detective of Kogoro Mori, the modern left letter.

"It was an unfortunate accident," Liutian explained in a deep voice. "On that day two years ago, we parked our yacht near a small island and spread out to play in our own ways... We didn't even realize that a storm was coming. ..."

The atmosphere in the living room was heavy, except for Liutian who spoke, everyone was silent.

Liutian continued: "When the thunderstorm came, most of the people went back to the yacht to take refuge, and only the young lady stayed on the small island...

"It was a small island that would sink at high tide. At that time, one of us went to rescue Miss Lihua in a rubber boat. Half a day later, we found Miss Lihua and the second-order woman wearing life jackets floating on the sea. Tang, but the companion who went to rescue her disappeared... three days later her body was found floating on the sea..."

"Who is the companion you are talking about?"

"She is my granddaughter Yaeko," Granny Mi returned to the living room with the coffee. "She sacrificed her life to save the eldest lady, so Yaeko will probably die without regret... Come on, I'll make the coffee." .”

Gao Cheng didn't drink coffee right away, but asked in thought: "You said only Miss Lihua stayed on the island, so what's going on with Nikaido?"

"He went fishing alone in a kayak, and we don't know how he got together with the eldest lady," Liutian said while drinking coffee, "It seems that the reason why he is so confident that he can marry the eldest lady may be What did the eldest lady promise at that time?"

"Is that so..."

Gao Cheng also casually picked up a cup of coffee and drank it: "Everyone, after drinking the coffee, search carefully in the villa. Find Miss Lihua first."

"But the murderer may still be..."

"Then divide them into two groups and supervise each other."

Gao Cheng ordered, while yawning again, feeling more sleepy than before.

I tried to cheer up, but my eyelids became heavier and heavier...

"Detective Kido, what's wrong with you?" Gojo Xiu asked strangely.

"It's nothing, I'm just a little sleepy." Gao Cheng couldn't resist, rubbing his eyes and said, "Sorry, I'll go wash my face first..."

"Don't force yourself, just sleep on the sofa for a while," Granny Mi said, "I'll stay with you here."

"It seems that Detective Kido is really tired." Looking at Gao Cheng's sleepy look, Liutian took the initiative to say, "Aunt Mi, you can take care of him here, we will divide into two groups to find enough."
