Conan's Landing Full Reputation
Chapter 168
"Let's skip the pleasantries for now. What exactly do you need me to do, Mr. Mamiya? Excuse me, a proper detective would do a better job than me in investigating cases from four or two years ago."
"No, no, no, it's not about investigating those cases, but it's somewhat related to that... I think my grandma is a little strange." Mamiya organized his words, "Doctor Toki should have read the investigation notes I left behind, right?"
"Yes."
"In fact, I grew up abroad since I was a child, and I have never met Mamiya's wife, my grandma. For the past four years, I have basically lived in the old house, and she would disappear for a period of time every year. The servants at home would find my grandma in the woods near the old house. They guessed that when my grandma was awake, she went out to look for my mother, but got lost in the woods and couldn't come back.
"In order to prevent my grandma from starving because of running out, the servants also made cookies for her to carry with her. But I still feel something is wrong. My grandma is already very old. With her inconvenient legs and feet, can she really run so far and get lost in the woods? ”
Mamiya asked someone to change the tea and poured it for Shi Mo Mi before continuing: "So some time ago, after my grandmother disappeared again, I searched in the woods every day, but I didn't see any signs of anything wrong. A few days later, I saw my grandmother in the place where I had searched several times before. She was in a mess and really looked like she was lost in the forest for a few days.
"But I felt... she didn't look like my grandmother at all. Although it's incredible to say this, I really don't feel that I have a blood connection with her. So I want to ask Dr. Shi to investigate whether my grandmother is really the real person."
Mamiya took out a yellowed medical record and handed it to Shi Mo Mi.
It was a medical record from more than ten years ago. Because of her old age, the eldest wife of the Mamiya family fell down and couldn't stand up. She was sent to the hospital for examination. The diagnosis showed that the injuries caused by the fall would not be life-threatening, but caused the eldest wife to basically lose the ability to walk.
"So you want me to re-diagnose Madam Mamiya, right?"
"Yes, but I hope Dr. Shi can try not to arouse my grandmother's suspicion. If she is really not my grandmother... I will find out the reason behind it."
Shi Mo Mi agreed directly: "Okay, then tell you about my plan..."
——————————————
At the door of Dr. Agasa's house, Conan sat in the co-pilot and urged with his chin in his hand: "Doctor... haven't you packed yet? Without Mo Mi, it always takes you a long time to go out."
Dr. Agasa was trying to remember whether he had brought all his things: "I can't help it. Xiao Mo always helps me check if I forgot to take anything. If there is something missing, he will bring it to me and put it away... Now I come by myself, I always feel that I forgot to bring something."
Conan: "Didn't you say that there is a store at the foot of the mountain where we camp to buy things? If there is really something small that I forgot to bring, I can go and buy it."
Even Huiyuan, who was sitting in the back seat, thought so: "Doctor, if we don't set off again , I won't be able to pick up those kids at the agreed time."
Although Dr. Agasa felt that he must have forgotten to bring something, he was a little anxious because he was urged too much. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll buy whatever I'm missing when the time comes."
"Is this the reason why you forgot to bring a tent when you went out camping?"
Mitsuohiko was speechless. It was the doctor who said he would take them out camping, but after lunch by the river, he wanted everyone to set up a tent and rest before continuing to play. The doctor told them awkwardly: I forgot to bring a tent...
"How about we go down the mountain and buy a tent?"
Conan was speechless: "There's only a small store at the bottom of the mountain. It's okay to find food, but there won't be anything like tents!"
Grayfield didn't have any good ideas, but secretly remembered to help the doctor prepare the things he needed to bring next time: "But there's no other way now. Let's go down the mountain to see if we can buy a tent. If we can't buy it, we can only go home."
Conan sighed and had to agree to this proposal.
But Dr. Agasa drove down the mountain, went around in circles on the road, and didn't get back to the main road for a long time.
Genta couldn't stand it anymore: "Doctor, are you lost? I really want to go to the bathroom!"
Dr. Agasa had no choice. His sense of direction was comparable to the two Mori family members. At the moment, he was really a little dizzy. In addition, the roads in the woods were very similar, and now the people in the car couldn't tell where the car was.
Conan leaned back in his seat: "Suddenly I miss Mo Mi... At least she is really good at finding the way."
Mitsuhiko strangled his neck: "You call me sister like this again!"
Conan: ...Is it normal for me to call you that? I really can't stand being this kid for a day!
It took Conan a long time to break free from Mitsuhiko's restraints: "Why do you care about the name? Look at our current situation, maybe we have to camp in the car tonight."
Ayumi doesn't want to stay in the car all night: "Huh? No way!"
Mitsuhiko always coaxes the two girls: "Maybe we can meet a hotel?"
Ayumi also started to fantasize: "Or a castle by the lake!"
Conan was amused by the two people's fantasies: "This is in the wilderness, how can there be any castle."
"Although the probability of encountering a castle in the suburbs is very low, it is not impossible... Look outside. "
The trees on both sides of the small road where the car was driving were not very short. Even through the towering trees, the blue pointed castle could still be seen from the woods.
You can say that Yuan Tai is a child with no manners... He is unwilling to solve physiological problems on the roadside; you can say that he is a person of good manners... When he saw the blue castle, he urged Dr. Agasa to drive to the castle. He even climbed over the closed gate and ran inside as soon as the car stopped.
However, such a large castle could not be without servants. Yuan Tai was grabbed by the collar before he even ran a few steps.
"You kid! Where did you come from? Did you run in without permission!"
Although no one agreed, Yuan Tai was really anxious: "I can't hold it anymore, uncle, can I borrow the bathroom! "
The gardener who caught Genta was quite conflicted. This was not his home. If he let a stranger in, it would obviously be his dereliction of duty. But if he refused to let him use the restroom, it seemed a bit unkind.
While he was struggling, someone pushed the door open and said, "Let them in."
The people who came were Takato Mamiya and his stepfather Mitsuru Mamiya.
Unlike Takato Mamiya who occasionally went out, Mitsuru Mamiya was simply the ultimate otaku. He stayed at home every day and got fat.
While Genta went to the restroom, through small talk, Mitsuru Mamiya learned about Dr. Agasa's identity as a scientist and invited several people to stay here for one night.
Dr. Agasa, who was already lost, also agreed. Mitsuru Mamiya did not stay for long and returned to the castle first.
The gardener who originally caught Genta was one of the oldest servants in the castle. Since he had not seen any visitors for a long time, he seemed to open up his chatterbox and told Agasa everything here. The doctor said so.
Huihara followed the others with his hands behind his back, thinking: This person is quite nice. He explained the family tree clearly when he was invited in as a guest... If servants of big families were like this, the intelligence organization of the winery would be short of half the people.
The gardener continued to tell Dr. Agasa about what happened at home, such as the fire four years ago and the old man Mamiya and the young master Mamiya who they had just met.
The moment Huihara followed the others into the castle gate, her scalp suddenly went numb, as if she was soaked in ice water in an instant, and then she shivered involuntarily... Huihara unconsciously grabbed Conan who was curious about the gossip.
Conan didn't know why she grabbed him: "What's wrong?"
"I feel... something is wrong." This feeling only lasted for a moment, and Huihara stiffly let go of her hand, "It seems like someone was looking at me just now. "
Conan looked around but didn't find anything wrong.
An old man in a wheelchair appeared from the corner. He looked very old. The gardener, with his back to the old man, was introducing the paintings on the wall to Dr. Agasa and didn't notice the old man coming.
The old man pushed the wheelchair closer to the people in the middle of the hall. Seeing the gardener talking about the deceased master of the Mamiya family, he couldn't help but say: "The master is not an intellectual at all. At best, he is just an old man with a mouth full of crooked ideas."
The gardener was shocked: "Madam! Sorry, I shouldn't bring up these things. "
The old man smiled indifferently: "It's okay, I've long been accustomed to the days without him here. It's just like the size of banknotes and passports have changed. Many things are different from before..."
People in the hall were talking about family matters. Mamiya Mitsuru wanted to take the opportunity to ask Dr. Agasa to decipher the last words left by the old man. Mamiya Takato, who was on the edge, saw that there was nothing for him to do, so he turned around and went back to his room.
Before lunch, he took Shi Mo Mi back to the castle. He wanted to say that Shi Mo Mi was the doctor he invited for a physical examination, so that Shi Mo Mi could contact the old man at that time, but he was afraid of alerting the enemy.
Hesitantly, Shi Mo Mi gave his own plan. Mamiya Takato just wanted to confirm whether the old man had the leg injury first, and second, to determine the man's age. These are for an ordinary doctor.It would be difficult to say no contact, but for Shi Mo Mi, it is a very simple thing.
In the information given by Mamiya Nobleman, the problem with the first wife's lower limbs is due to trauma. She has been in a wheelchair due to inconvenience in movement, and she doesn't like servants to serve her closely. Shi Mo Mi only needs to let the system confirm whether she has muscle atrophy to determine whether the first wife can walk.
Another age problem is also very simple. There is a good way to confirm age in medicine - measuring bone age. The system can also do this.
So Mamiya Nobleman only needs to secretly take Shi Mo Mi home.
Shi Mo Mi is in Mamiya Nobleman's room at this time. Because the castle is very large, Mamiya Nobleman's room is a suite style, with the inner room as a bedroom and the outer room as a tea room for entertaining guests. Shi Mo Mi sat on the European-style sofa and waited for him to come back.
Mamiya closed the door: "Doctor Shi, the group of people you saw at the door were directly invited by my stepfather to come in as guests. And I saw my grandmother, she is now in the hall."
"Okay, then I will find a way to confirm it."
Mamiya Takato scratched his head: "Do you really not need my help to create opportunities for contact?"
Shi Mo Mi stood up: "Do you know why I want you to invite those children in?"
Mamiya asked very cooperatively: "Why?"
Shi Mo Mi walked around the sofa, stood in front of the decorative painting at the back, and pressed the decoration on the animation frame: "Children of this age can't sit still. If the eldest wife is really someone else pretending, the curiosity of those children will make her unable to hold back and reveal flaws."
With Shi Mo Mi's actions, the wall with the oil painting turned over, driving Shi Mo Mi standing in front to disappear behind the mechanism. The newly exposed wall, except for the more residual dust, is exactly the same as the previous wall decoration.
Mamiya Takato has lived in this room for four years, and he didn't know there was such a mechanism here. He wanted to copy Shi Mo Mi's operation and follow him, but no matter how he pressed the animation box, the wall didn't respond.
Although Mamiya Takato was afraid that Shi Mo Mi would get into trouble in the secret passage, he couldn't tell others, so he had to give up the idea of chasing him and went to the restaurant to eat at the reminder of the servant.
Shi Mo Mi had just come to the castle, and before he had time to explore, he was reminded by the system that Conan and his group were outside the castle. Shi Mo Mi only knew that several people would go out camping today, but he didn't know why they came here. It can't be that they have no place to live, so they came here? You know, the basis of camping is to set up a tent and live in the wild.
However, this did not affect Shi Mo Mi's completion of her mission. The passage connected to the secret passage in Mamiya Takato's room was pitch black, and Shi Mo Mi walked forward with a flashlight.
After passing through another secret door, the passage behind was not as dusty as the road just out, but was covered with footprints. In some places where people walked a lot, there were even several parallel marks.
Shi Mo Mi squatted down and observed carefully. Those were tire marks, which should be the traces left by the wheelchair. The only person in this villa who had a wheelchair was the eldest wife.
Almost from this point, she was sure that the "eldest wife" was not ordinary. Whose grandson was in his twenties, and would push a wheelchair around in the secret passage alone? What's more, the eldest wife fell many years ago and couldn't walk. If something happened in the secret passage, there would be no one to collect the body.
Shi Mo Mi walked to a wall in the direction of the tire marks. Before Shi Mo Mi could find the mechanism to open the secret passage, a subtle sound came from the quiet secret passage.
The secret passage was basically straight, with no place to hide on both sides. After Shi Mo Mi turned off the flashlight, it was even more difficult to tell whether there were any mechanisms around to open the exit passage.
The light was shining through the corner, and the originally subtle sound became louder and louder. It could be heard that it was the sound of a wheelchair rolling.
"Creaky——"
