Conan reborn as a detective

Chapter 881
"Brother still didn't show up..."

"Why don't we take the photos first?" After dinner, the parents and daughters of Yin Cang suggested, "Last year was when we were about to take pictures, and Yaya suddenly ran into the room."

"That's right," the rest of the people said happily, "If everyone is making a lot of noise and enjoying the filming, the elder brother might suddenly appear..."

Gao Cheng and Xiao Ai walked behind, and the maid next to him, Xiao Guang bit his finger hesitantly, still thinking about Gao Cheng's turning over the coffin.

"Well, Master Ah Cheng, are you..."

"Excuse me," Gao Cheng suddenly asked everyone in the Yincang family, "The photo you are talking about is..."

"It's just like this when we get together as a family we take pictures and it's been like this for three generations."

"is it?"

Gao Cheng's heart lit up.

This is just right, he can go to that secret passage to investigate, maybe he can collect some clues.

The room where the photo was taken was in the collection showroom. The maid Xiaoguang wanted to ask Gao Cheng, but was called by the Yincang family to help take the photo.

"Hurry up," Yin Cang's parents and daughter said dissatisfiedly, "What are you dawdling about?"

"Come, come!"

The maid Xiaoguang ran away in a panic, leaving Gao Cheng and Xiao Ai to look at each other.

In fact, it's nothing to expose his identity as a detective, but for the sake of the old housekeeper, it is of course best to be able to investigate in private.

Returning to the master's room of the villa again, the position of the coffin unexpectedly changed subtly, which seemed normal, but Gao Cheng sensitively noticed that it was not in the same position as before.

To be precise, the coffin seems to be closer to the wall.

Gao Cheng lifted the carpet on the side, and sure enough, he found the secret passage underneath the coffin

Gao Cheng entered the secret passage first, went down the stairs, pushed open a movable door at the end, and found a storage room outside, and the secret door was disguised as a whole locker.

So, half a year ago, the owner of the villa made an alibi like this.

"But," Xiao Ai wondered, "how could the police not have found out?"

"I'm afraid the position of the coffin has been moved," Gao Cheng explained. "The coffin is placed next to the carpet. There are two gaps in the middle of the carpet blocked by tables and chairs. The middle part should be pulled off so that the carpet can be artificially shortened. It will appear above the secret passage, and conversely, if the carpet is lengthened, the secret passage will be hidden, and it will be easily overlooked if the police just remove the coffin."

Xiao Ai immediately understood Gao Cheng's analysis, lowered her head and pondered: "So, is the matter this time also a trick of that master?"

"It's hard to say now..."

In the showroom, everyone from the Yincang family gathered here except the owner of the villa. Bancun Nan set up his camera and directed everyone: "Brother Ma Xin, lean a little towards the middle, actually, your chin should be a little lower... okay Lah, big sister, when will your hair be done? No matter how much you do it, it won’t make you look younger.”

"Crap!"

After getting ready, Bancunnan instructed the absent-minded maid Xiaoguang, "I'll go to line up too, just press the shutter button for your help."

"Ah, okay."

The maid Xiaoguang was a little afraid of dealing with these Yin Cang family members, so she timidly stood in front of the camera.

"That, one, two..."

The eldest daughter of Yincang finally straightened her hair and tried her best to smile when facing the camera, but she didn't see the maid taking pictures after waiting for a long time. She frowned and said, "What are you dawdling about?! Not too fast..."

The maid shivered and pressed the shutter button, and quickly pointed behind everyone in fear: "Old, master! The master just appeared!"

"What? Don't be kidding..."

"It's true! Right behind everyone, wobbly, like a ghost..."

"Did something happen?" Gao Cheng and Xiao Ai appeared at the door like a ghost, and the maid screamed out of fright as soon as he spoke.

"Please," Yin Cang's eldest daughter said angrily to the maid, "You should also stop it a bit! Don't you think that Yami is a monster? Don't be surprised!"

"But……"

"I think it's better to look for it separately," Bancuntou glanced at Gao Cheng, put away the camera and said in a deep voice, "If this continues, the eldest brother will really be regarded as a monster!"

"Hell, what the hell is Big Brother going to do? It's time to discuss the inheritance, right?"

Everyone from Yincang's family flocked to leave the showroom, but no one told Gao Cheng what was going on. Fortunately, the maid Xiaoguang was still there, and her teeth seemed to be chattering a little.

"How could master..."

"What happened to your master?" Gao Cheng asked softly.

"When the photo was taken just now," the maid Xiaoguang came back to her senses and said tremblingly, "I saw the master suddenly appear behind everyone, but he disappeared after taking the photo."

Gao Cheng looked at the position of the maid's finger.

"Did you take a photo?"

"Well, I don't know, the camera was taken away by Mr. Kishiji."

The maid Xiaoguang held her fingers to her chest and looked worriedly at Gao Cheng.

"Master, nothing will happen to him, right? Possessed by a vampire..."

"This still needs to be investigated." Gao Cheng fell into deep thought.

On the one hand, he didn't quite understand what the ghost the maid was talking about, and on the other hand, he didn't quite understand the villa owner's purpose.

Are you just trying to scare people?
"Excuse me," the maid Xiaoguang suddenly asked when Gao Cheng was about to leave, "Master Ah Cheng, are you a policeman?"

"No," Gao Cheng quietly looked at the maid, "I'm a detective, can you keep it secret for me for now?"

"Huh? Oh oh."

The maid Xiaoguang stared blankly at Gao Cheng walking out of the showroom.

"Why did you tell her?" Xiao Ai followed Gao Cheng and raised her eyelids, "You just trust her like that? Maybe it's all a play directed by her..."

"It is true that there is such a possibility," Gao Cheng thought, "If this is the case, after knowing that I am a detective, he can have some concerns. If it has nothing to do with her, then as a witness, she is very interested in the investigation. helpful."

"Oh?" Little Sorrow folded his arms, "So, Kido-sama, have you solved the riddle yet?"

"I want to see that picture first..."

Gao Cheng glanced at Xiao Ai who was making strange noises.

The ability to ridicule is still at full value...

But now he still hasn't figured out the situation of the Yincang family, and there is no direction to investigate out of thin air. The only thing he can be sure of is that the case half a year ago is related to Yincang Yami.

……

"Collapse, landslide?!"

When Gao Cheng was investigating, a new situation suddenly appeared. The only road leading to the villa was blocked by a landslide. From the villa, you could see the forest burning in the distance and thick smoke billowing.

"I called to confirm just now," said Guo Ziyan Yin Cang Ma Xin anxiously, "It is said that the tunnel collapse was caused by an explosion for unknown reasons, and the recovery of the road may have to wait until tomorrow..."

"Really, I haven't found my eldest brother until now!"

"By the way," the little boy said, looking around for Yin Cang's parents and daughters, "Has anyone seen my dear? I haven't seen her since just now..."

"I don't know, but Brother Kishiji didn't see it?"

"The young master Ah Cheng asked Kishiji to develop photos with him just now, and it should be used as a darkroom now."

When several people mentioned Gao Cheng, Ma Xin's wife, the long-haired woman, raised her eyebrows and said, "Speaking of that young master, don't you think it's weird?"

"what happened?"

"He seems to really think that big brother has become a vampire."

"Maybe he's interested in vampire legends," the boy shrugged. "Aren't all young masters from rich families like this?"

Gao Cheng saw the photo taken in the showroom in Torakura Kishiji's room.

Sure enough, it was exactly as the maid said, standing between the eldest daughter Toakura and the little boy in the back row, an old man wearing glasses appeared behind him, with his mouth wide open showing terrifying fangs.

"There really is such a thing," Bancunnan said with sweat on his face and an ugly expression, "Brother really turned into a monster through the wall..."

"It does look like a ghost photo."

Gao Cheng took the photo and examined it carefully under the light.

Rather than appearing behind the crowd, it is better to appear in the mirror on the wall.

On the wall behind Yin Cang's eldest daughter and Xiao Bailian, an oval mirror hangs right between them.

The puzzle must be solved as soon as possible, otherwise something will happen if this continues.

Hurry up.
