Ke Xue's Kogoro

Chapter 355 The House of Hope
Yamato Ganzhu is obviously not happy with such rhetoric.

He said: "What? Is he stronger than me? Also, Yui Uehara!"

"To!"

Uehara Yui responded reflexively, and Yamato Gansuke said with a straight face: "I am your boss, don't call me Ah Gan."

"Yes, Officer Yamato!"

The three of Kogoro looked at each other, good guy, they are also an interesting couple, just like Sato and Takagi.

The sky gradually darkened, and when the sun was about to set, Kogoro and his party arrived at the destination of the trip.A two-story villa located in the mountains, the House of Hope.

Kogoro looked at the House of Hope in front of him. It was a two-story house with symmetrical left and right sides that even Moritani Teiji could not fault.The shape is very neon local, with a wood and stone structure and a square appearance.Only the traditional tiled eaves make it known that this is not a warehouse or anything.

"How should I put it, the first impression is quite bad."

The fact that the villa is located in the forest itself gives people a gloomy feeling, and now that the sun is setting, the surroundings are very dark, and the trees also block a lot of light and bring a lot of birds.

The shrill birdsong that rang out from time to time also made this place even more eerie.Not only that, the villa at this time only had a few lights on at the door and under the eaves, and all the rooms inside were pitch-black.No matter how you look at it, it's a haunted house.

Xiaolan is most afraid of this kind of environment, she said: "Indeed, it looks very gloomy, not worthy of the name."

Yamato Dasuke said leisurely: "You guys feel right, this place was indeed a place full of hope before, but until three years ago, the body of a poor woman was found in the warehouse."

Xiao Wulang's eyes were fixed: "Could it be that what we want to investigate is the case from three years ago?"

"No, please come with me."

There were two policemen standing at the door, and after Yamato Kansuke greeted them, he took Kogoro and his party into the villa.

To be honest, Kogoro still thinks this place is just a warehouse.It's obviously a villa, but the design inside is a mess.

As soon as you enter the gate, there is an empty hall with four rooms on each floor, plus a staircase connecting the second floor and a corridor on the second floor. This is the layout of the entire villa.

It doesn't look like the owner's own place at all.Kogoro had seen this kind of house a lot in his previous life. They were all rented out for decoration, and a house was divided into several units for rent.

Yamato Gansuke introduced to Kogoro and others: "This villa was built by a rich man before. He rented the rooms here to those young people who he liked, who were talented but had little money. And the rent They are all ultra-low prices or even free of charge, and the time lasts almost until their dreams come true. That’s why this place is called the Pavilion of Hope.”

Yui Uehara also said: "The rich man who often came back to see, later transferred the house to these young people, and then passed away due to illness. After those people were able to support themselves, they left here one after another, and finally only lived here. A couple who met and got married here."

"Uehara, take out the photo."

Uehara Yui took out a file bag, took out a few photos from it and handed it to Kogoro, and also introduced it on the side.

Akashi Shusaku, an illustrator, has thick natural curly hair and a ponytail, wears glasses, and the corners of his mouth are curved, with a serious face.Code name Xiaohong.

Naoki Suikawa, actor, has a very distinctive mustache.Codenamed Little Green.

Aoi Xiaoqiao, an exquisite short-haired woman, but her brows are always slightly wrinkled, and she feels a little pessimistic.Code name Xiaolan.

Shoji Yamabuki, fashion designer, oily head, bearded.Codenamed Xiao Huang.

Takuto Momose, a CG producer, wears a peaked cap backwards and has a full beard.Codename Xiaofen.

Naoki Shiro, a musician, has blond hair and eyebrows, and an unshaven beard.Code name Xiaobai.

What Xiao Wulang thought was that the names of these people seemed to be related to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, not to mention Zhu Fu Gaoming, this guy was basically named after Zhuge Liang.

The others are Zhou Yu, Cao Cao, Xiao Qiao, Yuan Shao, Dong Zhuo and Sima Yi.It is said that Chibi is the one that cannot be solved in this case, and there is a place named Xinye nearby. Isn't this all right?
Kogoro was thinking wildly here, but he heard Conan say over there: "It turns out that's the case. I said why the coloring paper was pasted on the doors of those rooms and then torn off. It's because they used to use colors as marks. ?”

Uehara Yui couldn't help but nodded, and praised: "Conan is right, they used to paste the corresponding color paper on the door of their room."

Dahe Gansuke said: "Indeed, we found a duty sheet in the warehouse, and it was also written in color. Well, come up with me, let's take a look at the scene."

On the second floor, a simple four-wheeled cart for cargo is placed at the corner.The corridor itself is not wide, and the cart is placed at the corner, almost blocking the road.Kogoro and the others could only walk sideways.

"The scene of the crime was Akashi Shusaku's room. The cart filled with books was blocked at his door, which also led to his death."

Yamato Kansuke paused for a moment, and then said: "Everyone, the scene you will see later may be a bit scary, please be mentally prepared."

He pushed open the door and walked inside first.

Xiao Wulang saw that Xiaolan was a little scared, so he comforted him: "Xiaolan, why don't you wait outside?"

Xiaolan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, she hugged Conan and hugged her chest, and said calmly: "It's okay, I have Conan."

Kogoro shrugged and walked into the room.

"Hey, that's interesting."

As soon as you enter the door, the wall on the left hand side is covered with red spray paint, which is very eye-catching.

"This is Chibi."

Xiao Wulang was amazed, Xiaolan asked in fear: "Could this be blood?"

Conan pointed to the floor and said, "No, sister Xiaolan, this is red spray paint."

There was also an evidence plaque on the floor, and behind it was a can of spray paint lying flat on the ground.Xiaolan glanced at it, then breathed a sigh of relief, and put Conan down.

Kogoro and Toko immediately got into the mood and began to investigate the scene.

In the center of the room, there were two chairs placed back to back. The four legs of the chairs were nailed to the floor. Someone probably didn't want the two chairs to be moved.

Yamato Gansuke said: "These are all the last words left by the deceased. We currently have no way to figure out what the deceased wanted to express, so the case has not made progress."
