Conan in the book is a professional beater

Chapter 26 The final countdown to death is on

"Then should we call the police?"

Hoshino Jun made a normal suggestion, and everyone suddenly realized after hearing this, yes, if you didn't call the police if something like this happened at this moment, could you really be trapped in this secluded and almost uninhabited villa like this?

Suzuki Ayako was also the first to make a phone call.

But the result was a busy signal that was always busy, and the call could not be made at all. This was also unexpected, and everyone looked worried at the moment.

"Why can't I get through the phone at this time?"

"It was fine at noon, but I don't know why it's like this at this time. It's so strange."

Suzuki Ayako held the landline phone receiver and frowned slightly.

"The suspension bridge was vandalized. We all encountered a strange man wearing a bandage and a cloak. I think someone must be up to something."

"Maybe it's the guy with the bandage."

Faced with such a thing, everyone started to discuss it in a few words.

Because they were on vacation, none of them brought their mobile phones. After all, there were already phones in the villa. Who knew they would encounter such a thing.

"Ah, sister Hoshino, didn't you bring your mobile phone?"

At this time, Conan's childish words interrupted.

In an instant, Hoshino Jun became the focus of everyone's attention. Hoshino Jun stretched out his hand and displayed the phone in front of everyone's eyes without changing his expression.

But the words that followed made the atmosphere hit rock bottom again.

"The phone is out of battery. After I answered the call, I found that there was only one battery left. Now it seems that it is completely out of battery. I didn't even bring the charger!"

Hoshino Jun looked at everyone innocently.

Just kidding, she made it run out of power even if it had power. This is indeed one of the small functions that the system itself can do on its own.

Although it looks a little tasteless, it’s better than nothing!

System: Actually, I am still very useful, a real host!

Everyone else was very disappointed, but was it a coincidence? Who knew that so many coincidences would suddenly come together!

Only Conan looked at Hoshino Jun suspiciously.

It always feels like something is wrong, but I can't control things like my phone running out of battery. Although it's unexpected, I can only accept it.

"It's getting late, so let's go back and rest first. The nearest road has to go over another mountain, so we can only wait until tomorrow!"

Chikako frowned and looked at everyone before saying her suggestion. .

"Ah, by the way, Ms. Hoshino must be tired after coming all the way. How about we go back upstairs to rest together?"

To Jun Hoshino, who was almost a cash cow to him, Chikako still greeted him in a good-natured manner.

Hoshino Jun nodded, "Okay!"

Hearing that others also accepted the proposal.

After all, this is true.

"Perhaps the bandage man everyone is talking about so much is hiding in the forest right now, enjoying himself in his prank. If Hoshino-san is scared, you can come and sleep with me."

On the way upstairs, Chikako spoke to Hoshino Jun attentively.

"Yeah, forget it, I don't feel scared at all, and I also like to sleep alone, so I won't disturb you."

Hoshino Jun shook his head and gently rejected his proposal.

To be honest, Chikako was just being polite. When Hoshino Jun refused, she didn't say much and started talking about something else.

Then the two of them passed by Chikako's room first.

Chikako turned the doorknob and the lock made a clicking sound, but out of the corner of her eye, she noticed a letter at her door, and then she knelt down and picked up the envelope.

Chikako then opened the envelope as if nothing had happened, but when she saw the contents of the envelope, her eyes were full of fear and panic.

The hand holding the envelope was also shaking.

Then he squeezed the envelope fiercely, looking very ferocious.

"Ms. Ikeda, are you okay?"

Jun Hoshino looked at Chikako in amusement and said, "Tsk, tsk, this is a death notice sent by the murderer. Oh...what a pity."

"I'm fine, I'm just too tired. I don't want to eat dinner when it's time. Please help Ms. Hoshino to talk to Ayako and the others for me later."

"Okay!" Hoshino Jun nodded with a smile.

What's not allowed?Anyway, this is the last time.

Chikako Ikeda's eyes and eyebrows were all preoccupied, and she didn't even notice Hoshino Jun's strange look. She just made a perfunctory excuse and closed the door and went back to her room.

Hoshino Jun also returned to the room in a good mood.

It's almost over, this matter is almost over, and she can wander around for a while again.

At the same time, Suzuki Ayako, Suzuki Sonoko, Xiaolan and Conan, who had not returned to the room downstairs, were busy preparing dinner in the kitchen.

"Xiaolan, I'm really sorry that I need your help."

Suzuki Ayako looked at Xiaolan apologetically.

She would really feel bad if she came over to do these things even though she was a guest. After all, everyone else was resting.

Xiaolan smiled and said: "It's nothing, I often do housework at home."

"Oh...it's true, a good party has turned into this." Suzuki Ayako also sighed at this time.

The party she threw was ruined by herself.

If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have mentioned Atsuko, but Atsuko was obviously the best friend and classmate with them in the past, so why can't I mention it now.

Suzuki Sonoko still knows a little bit about this, so if the elder sister hadn't mentioned it too often, the atmosphere wouldn't have been weird, "Isn't it because the elder sister suddenly mentioned those things better than me?"

"Is it because of what happened to Atsuko two years ago?" When Conan remembered that Suzuki Ayako mentioned this name just now, the good atmosphere disappeared.

He couldn't help but be curious about this.

"Conan, stop talking!" Xiaolan was embarrassed when she heard this and went to stop Conan's seemingly unquestionable but inappropriate question.

"Atsuko committed suicide two years ago."

Conan was a little surprised when he heard this, "You, committed suicide? Why?" Since it was suicide, why did their expressions look so strange when they mentioned Atsuko.

It's not like they did it.

"She used to be a member of our film research club, but one day she hanged herself in our club office without warning. Since then, the atmosphere between us has changed, and we haven't seen each other for a long time. This gathering It’s something I put a lot of effort into organizing!”

Suzuki Ayako also told us about Atsuko, which satisfied our curious Conan children.

"So don't mention this again later, you know?"

Suzuki Ayako bent down and touched Conan's gently.

Conan looked at Suzuki Ayako's sad look and nodded, "I understand, Sister Ayako." It seemed that it was really best not to mention this topic more.

There are some things that no longer need to be investigated.

Soon it was dinner time.
