Kindaichi of Kexue World

Chapter 26 Concerning Conan's Sleeping with Elder Sister Xiaolan

"What?! Tomokako is dead!"

"Well... he was killed by someone."

With the help of Conan, Kanedaichiro inspected the body roughly under the name of a detective. The men returned to the villa together and told the ladies who stayed behind about Tomokako's miserable situation.

"It's all my fault, if I don't hold this party..." Suzuki Ayako couldn't help crying.

The kind-hearted Xiaolan and the frightened Yuanzi also had tears in their eyes.

"It's not your fault, no one knows that this kind of thing will happen." Kadotani Hiroki comforted Suzuki Ayako, and then gritted his teeth: "In the final analysis, the culprit of this matter should be the man in the bandage , he is definitely a murderer!"

Everyone's faces were ugly. Indeed, no one would be at ease knowing that there was a murderer wandering around him.

"That bandage monster attacked Jintianyi in the evening, and killed sister Tomokako at night, so will he attack us again?" Suzuki Sonoko was a little scared.

"I think as long as the doors and windows are locked, everything will be fine. This can only be blamed on Tomokako herself, who made her go out and wander around so late..." Ota Masaru said.

"Ota!" Kadotani Hiroki interrupted Ota Katsuki's speech.

His beloved woman died in front of him. Of course, he was very sad and emotionally unstable. When he was outside just now, he angrily asked Kaneda Kazuji why he failed to save Ikeda Tomokako as a detective.

It's much calmer now.

Ota Katsuki ignored him: "I think we'd better go back to the room and sleep."

"Ota is right. Go to bed earlier and get up earlier, so that you can go down the mountain early. We will call the police at that time." Suzuki Ayako calmed down now.

"I think it's best not to be alone when you're sleeping." Kindaichi stood up at this moment and said, "That man is holding a weapon like an ax after all. Some of our rooms have open-air balconies and floor-to-ceiling windows. If the other party is really determined to break the door or window, they can enter through such a room at any time, so it would be very dangerous for one person to face such a situation. If there are more than two people, there is at least a chance to resist and call for help."

In fact, this was just an excuse. He actually wanted to live in the same room with Conan so that he could discuss (seek) the case (protection).

"I think what Kazu Kazu-kun said is right. Everyone's room is gathered together. If there is a disturbance in one room, the room next to it will hear it. If there are more people calling for help or delaying time, it will indeed be much safer." Conan Calm analysis.

So everyone began to allocate rooms, and the selected rooms were all four rooms that did not rely on the balcony. They belonged to the Suzuki sisters, Takahashi Ryoichi, and Ota Katsura before, and there was a room that was not occupied by anyone.

According to Kazuto Kaneda's idea, the Suzuki sisters and the three girls Mao Lilan live together, on the one hand to avoid suspicion, on the other hand they have the most people, they have more strength, and their room is also the largest.

College men's trio choose two to live in a room.

The rest of the trio shared a room with Conan and Kindaichi.

This way three rooms are enough.

The room allocation went smoothly at first.

Ota Masaru and Takahashi Ryoichi were not very willing at first, but in the end they reluctantly agreed to choose to live together in Takahashi Ryoichi's room.

The remaining Kakutani Hiroki is the candidate to live with him, and Kaneda Ichiji thinks it is good, because he has a crush on the victim Tomokako Ikeda, and must know a lot about her, maybe Conan can get some clues from him.

However, Kindaichiji thought very well, and the plan was not as fast as the change.

Conan strongly urges not to leave Sister Xiaolan, and strongly urges not to live with Sister Suzuki, and asks him why, but he just blushes and plays coquettishly.

Kinda One Two with a black line on his head looks like Conan who is rolling on the ground...
So you are such a famous detective...
Mao Lilan obviously loved Conan very much. She said that she was a high school karate champion, and she would not be able to get close to a few strong men. In addition, Yuanzi was probably annoyed by the noise, and she also disliked this kid, so Kindaichiji's plan was shattered. up.

He can't act coquettishly and say don't leave Conan...

In the end, the Suzuki sisters still lived in their room, Conan Xiaolan lived in the unoccupied room, Kaneda Kazuto and Kakutani Hiroki lived in Ota Masaru's room.

The four houses leaned together and made an appointment to call for help if something special happened.

Kindaichi thought that although there is no way to live with Conan, as long as he is not alone, he can only make do with it.

Then everyone split up to close the doors and windows around the villa.

Kindaichi thought that since he couldn't live in the same room with Conan at night, he would have to find an opportunity to tell Conan about his findings during this period, so he followed Conan.

Unexpectedly, Conan kept looking around, not paying attention to him who was hesitating to speak.

"This... Conan, what are you looking at?" When he reached the main entrance, Conan plunged into the shoe cabinet.

"Strange, why isn't Chikako's sister's slippers in the shoe cabinet?"

"slippers?"

"That's right, if sister Zhijiazi goes out from here, the slippers should still be here. Didn't sister Zhijiazi pass through here when she left the villa?"

"Could it be that weirdo wearing a bandage who broke into the villa and gave Chikako who was working hard..." Sonoko showed a horrified expression.

"I don't think it's possible, because we saw the corpse just now. Zhijiazi was probably beheaded to death by a sharp weapon like an axe. Except for the wound left by the sharp knife dismembering the body, there were no other wounds on the whole body. It can be seen that there should be no severe injuries. Fighting, so it is unlikely that she was killed in her own house. Her eyes were wide open and her expression was grim. She should have been killed in a conscious and very surprised state, so it is more likely that she walked out of the villa by herself to meet That person." Kazuto Kinda unceremoniously took the preliminary autopsy results that Conan had just done for his own use.

"Just now when I went to lock the doors and windows, I went to Zhijiazi's room to check." Xiaolan said, "Although the room is a bit messy, there are no traces of struggle or blood, and the doors and windows are locked well."

"And the corpse's feet were still wearing the small leather shoes it wore when going out," Conan added.

"In this way, Tomokako Ikeda probably knows the bandage man..." Kazuto Kaneda said, "We were the only ones who were attacked. Could it be that the other party was targeting the drama "Dream of Pegasus"?" people?"

"No matter what, there must be an exit from this villa." Conan concluded.

Sure enough, several people found Tomokako Ikeda's slippers at the back door of the villa.

"Why does he have to come in and out through the back door? It's so far away from the room on the second floor." Kazuto Jintian asked.

"That's true, it feels like I'm deliberately avoiding others..."

"Okay, if Zhijiazi really knew that weird person, and the reason for the murder was also related to the script she wrote, wouldn't we be safer? So, stop thinking about it, since we found the slippers, let's go back to the room Go to bed, call the police tomorrow and let the police come to investigate!" Xiaolan and Yuanzi said one after another while turning off the light at the back door and walking back.

"Conan, I have something to tell you." Just as Conan was about to follow, Kanedaichi grabbed him by the neck.

"Brother Jintianyi, I just want to ask you something." Conan said, but his eyes never left Xiaolan who was drifting away.

"Then I'll talk first?"

"You talk first."

"It's like this, I was with Tomokako Ikeda before..."

"Crack!"

"what!!!!"

Suddenly there was the sound of glass breaking and a cry.

"Oops! That's Ryoichi Takahashi's voice!"
