"That's right, Mr. Mamiya who invited us here is actually Mr. Aman, the wife's second husband in this castle, and the Mr. Sadaki mentioned just now is the wife's first husband, because Mr. Sadaki is here He died of illness six years ago."

Bai Di explained to Dr. Ali and Conan.

Mr. Tanaka next to him also added a little sadly,

"Our wife, she was also burned to death in the fire four years ago."

"What fire?"Conan couldn't help but ask in a low voice. Even Hui Yuan Ai beside Bai Emperor couldn't help but pay attention to the conversation between Bai Emperor and others, and secretly pricked up his ears.

"Hora!"

Mr. Tanaka was stunned for a moment, then turned to several people and pointed to the right side of the castle, the place that looked extremely out of place, with a stone tower covered with scars standing in the woods, and explained in a low voice,

"Look at that, there's a charred stone tower there. That place was my wife's former bedroom. Four years ago, my wife came back to this long-lost castle to celebrate the birthday of her mother, the eldest wife.

However, after my wife came here in the middle of the night, before dawn, the flames suddenly started to burn for some reason.

And not only the wife, but also the friends she brought back with her, as well as the steward and servants who had served the eldest wife for many years, more than a dozen people, were all swallowed up in the fire."

Having said this, Mr. Tanaka paused for a moment, and then led Dr. Ali to continue walking forward, saying as he walked,

"The only people who escaped this disaster were hired servants like me, and the eldest lady who slept in another dormitory because of a cold. Next is Mr. Aman, who came here a little earlier than his wife."

"By the way, who is that?"Dr. Ali couldn't help but ask.

While Conan listened carefully to the conversation between the two, he looked at 077 towards the man who was about 25 years old, squatting in front of a white sculpture in the corner of the grass chess board. , holding his chin with one hand, seeming to be thinking about something.

"That person is the only son of the wife and her first husband, Mr. Sadaki, Mr. Mamiya Takato. Although he came back here 2 or 3 days before the fire, he had been sent abroad to study since he was a child.

It was at that time that I first met Mr. Guiren and now Mr. Aman. Since our wife remarried abroad, she and Master Aman have been living abroad.

However, I don’t know why, but since what happened to my wife, Master Aman and Master Guiren have been living in this castle. To us outsiders, it looks like we have some kind of treachery."

The old stories that Mr. Tanaka continued to tell made Conan and Haibara Ai slightly stunned. They couldn't help but notice something. They turned to look at Bai Di, who was looking at the noble young master with a faint smile.

"Hey, Bai Di, could it be that the reason why you invited us here is—"

Conan couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"That's right," Bai Di withdrew his gaze, nodded slightly to Conan and Haiyuan Ai, and said softly,

"In fact, the reason why I brought you here is not only because Master Aman wants me to find the treasures in the castle for him, but also because of the request of the noble young master in front of me."

"What request?"

Hai Yuan Ai glanced at Conan who was starting to get serious, and couldn't help but turn his attention to Bai Di.

"Is there any point in guessing this?"

With that gentle smile, Bai Di raised the corners of his mouth slightly, playing with the taste.

"The noble young master suspected that there was something wrong with the fire that year, but there were no clues. Even the wife's mother, the eldest wife who experienced the fire, was too severely affected and never left the castle again, and her memory began to blur. Oh, I forgot that my wife is dead"

"What?"

Conan was stunned for a moment, and his face became very solemn. In this way, it would be much more difficult to investigate the truth of that year than in previous cases.

However, Haiyuan Ai glanced at the smiling Bai Emperor and said coldly ,

"Don't you need to go up and say hello to that noble young master? Bai

Di smiled lightly and explained to the two of them,

"No, and neither Master Guiren nor Master Aman have any useful clues. so,"

"There is only one clue, which is the treasure hidden in the castle as you mentioned, right."

Hui Yuan Ai took over Bai Di's words calmly and glanced at him coldly.

"That's right."

Noting Haiyuan Ai's gaze, Bai Di couldn't help but laugh. Then he glanced at Dr. Ali and Mr. Tanaka in front of him, and said softly,

"Okay, it's time for us to follow suit."

With that said, Bai Di and others immediately entered the gate of the castle with Mr. Tanaka.

"Squeak-yah!"

As soon as the gate of the castle was opened, a huge portrait hung on the wall opposite the castle gate immediately caught the eyes of Bai Di and others. It was a portrait of a character.

And the portrait of the character inside was the same as just now. The noble man Bai Di and others had met was almost exactly the same, except that the beard at the corner of his mouth was much thicker, making him look more mature and serious.

"That is the portrait of the great master, the noble young master’s grandfather. As for the portraits hanging on both sides, they are of the wife and Mr. Zhenzhao respectively."

Bai Di and others stood in the center of the hall, looking left and right, constantly looking at two huge portraits of a man and a woman. The man was elegant and the woman was intellectual and beautiful. They seemed to be in perfect harmony.

As he spoke, Mr. Tanaka couldn't help but recall Reminding me of the past,

"Speaking of which, Mr. Zhenzhao was recruited, and he had great respect for him, who was also a historian like him. Our wives were often jealous, and even went so far as to retaliate against Mr. Zhenzhao."

Suddenly, a slightly old and hoarse voice came from the side. An old woman sat in a wheelchair and appeared behind everyone.

"She often said, 'Dad is just an intellectual who talks nonsense,' right?"

"Eh?"

Mr. Tanaka was startled, turned around and said respectfully in a hurry,

"Madam!"

"In fact, the child's father has often heard this before (agfg), but when he heard this, he was not angry at all but very happy."

The eldest lady recalled and said, a trace of nostalgic smile appeared on her old face, which made Mr. Tanaka panic and said,

"I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have let the eldest lady recall these past events"

"You don’t need to be too nervous. I have long been used to the days without him here. This is just like the change in the pattern of banknotes and the size of the passport. I was not used to it at first, but as time went by, I felt that there was nothing strange about it..

Time is indeed a terrible thing. Regardless of joy, anger, sorrow, or joy, it will disappear with time."

At this time, the eldest lady looked at Bai Di and others and said doubtfully,

"Who are these?"

"They are friends of the master. Mr. Bai Di is actually a musician, and Dr. A Li is a scientist."

"musician? the scientist?"

The eldest lady was stunned for a moment, then smiled lightly and said,

"profound? That's great. I want to see what mysteries he has buried in this castle."

"Mystery?"

Dr. Ali was slightly startled, and

Mr. Tanaka started to explain,

"I heard that the great master once said this before he died. As long as he can solve the mystery of this castle, he will give his most precious treasure to him."

"treasure?"

Hearing this word, Ayumi and others looked very excited.

"By the way, my daughter hasn't come back yet."

The eldest lady suddenly remembered something and said to Mr. Tanaka who was hesitant to speak,

"Isn't she coming back today? She said she was coming to celebrate my birthday."

While muttering, the eldest lady turned her wheelchair and disappeared into the corridor of the living room. She also left a sentence,

"When she comes, let her come to my room and you can see my daughter right away...."

The hall became quiet again,

"well."

Mr. Tanaka couldn't help but sigh and explained,

"Ever since the fire, the eldest wife has become like this."

Looking at the direction where the eldest lady was leaving, Bai Di and others sighed with different expressions in their eyes.

"By the way, uncle, is there any room where I can see the chess sets in the yard?"

"Eh? Chess in the yard?"...

"Great, these chess pieces are arranged so beautifully."

In front of a window on the third floor of the castle, Ayumi and three people were huddled together. They looked at the chess pieces in the yard below and couldn't help but admire them.

"Oh, really, it’s black and white, but the pattern looks so weird. Mitsuhiko couldn't help but said

"Hey, where where? Why didn't I see it?"

As Yuantai spoke, he couldn't help but squeeze Conan forward, which made Conan very speechless. Then he turned to look at the chess set in the yard and was slightly startled.

Wait, this pattern is - watching Conan take it out of his pocket. Taking out a pen and paper, Bai Di couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly as he began to record the movements. Then he looked at the brown-haired girl beside him and asked with a slight smile,

"How about it? Did you see any tricks?"

Hai Yuan Ai glanced at the man beside her indifferently. The expression on her delicate and pretty face was obviously cold. She turned her head to the side and remained silent.

This man just likes to show off.

She is not interested in the treasures in this castle. , Naturally, he didn’t care whether these chess pieces were the eldest master’s secret code to indicate the treasure before his death.

Bai Di seemed to have guessed what she was thinking, and Bai Di added with a smile,

"If you find those treasures, it's easy to ask the owner here to buy you a bag as a thank you."

Hearing this, the corners of Hui Yuan Ai's fair mouth twitched slightly, and she glared at Bai Di fiercely. Then she swept her ice blue eyes towards the chess pattern on the ground, with a hint of determination flashing across her face.

She wanted to rely on her own strength. Make the effort to get in touch with this puzzle

��However, Haiyuan Ai would never admit that she actually just wanted to buy another bag.

I don't know why, but she just can't resist those bags.

Seeing Hui Yuan Ai's arrogant reaction, Bai Di couldn't help but smile helplessly, and then said softly,

"Okay, after so long, it’s time for me to go and say hello to Mr. Aman. Take your time and watch here."

With that said, Bai Di nodded to Mr. Tanaka, and then the two of them walked out of the room._
