"That is a book of the future. Possessing it can change your destiny." Ibaraki Jifeng swept his eyes over everyone, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up slightly.

Kudo Shinichi and Jabami Aoi looked at each other. They both guessed the purpose of Ibaraki Kifuo, the butler, which was to obtain the property of the Shirigata family. They also had reasons not to let the butler get the treasure. So there was only one way, which was to discover the treasure before Ibaraki Kifuo found it.

"Lawyer Hime, can we also find the treasure and obtain it? After all, the five heirs are now dead. Even if they wait until the forty-eight hours are up, they will not be able to obtain the treasure." Jabami Aoi looked at Hime Eri. He wanted to get the treasure of the Shirigata family for Shaonan.

Kudo Shinichi glanced at Jabami Aoi and echoed, "Maybe the book of the future will record the way to leave here, and it's boring to stay here now. If we can decipher it, we can kill some time." Hosou Ikihime, who is still in the hospital bed, needs the money.

The word "井" appeared one after another on Hibiki Eri's forehead. She stared at the two boys in front of her with some displeasure. She wanted to scold them, but she heard her daughter suddenly speak.

"Mom, I want to find the treasure too." Mao Lilan looked at her mother with burning eyes.

The lifeless Arisa Shiina moved her eyes and looked at Ran Mouri beside her. Ran Mouri's hands and feet were wrapped in gauze, and she would feel pain even if she was touched lightly because of the blisters all over her body. Even so, she was still trying to find a way to help Yiji get the treasure.

I shouldn't be so depressed. I want to help Yi Ji get the treasure, and I also want to find the murderer who killed Mingyue.

A tear fell from Shiina Arisa's eyes. Her originally dull eyes sparkled with light, and her voice was firm, "I want to find the treasure!"

"The murderer might be around us, you..." Fei Yingli wanted to dissuade these daring children, but when she saw the determined eyes of the children, the words of dissuasion came to her lips but she couldn't say them, and she could only sigh helplessly.

Ibaraki Jifeng seemed to see the worry of Kiyori and looked around, "As long as the treasure is found and the heir to the estate is determined, then no one should die."

"Butler Ibaraki seems to know something." Kisaki Eri looked at Ibaraki Jifeng who was wearing a butler's uniform. Although this butler has always been concerned about who found the treasure, could it be that he knows where the treasure is?

"I'm just the housekeeper of the Shirigata family. I don't know much about my employer's family." Ibaraki Jifeng still had a professional smile on his face.

However, Hibiki Eri had a cold face. She really wanted to take these children away from this villa full of corpses, but even if they left here, could they leave the cliff? Could they escape from this other world?

"Ran, have you seen anything strange?" Kudo Shinichi always felt that Ran Mouri was attacked because she discovered something.

Mao Lilan lowered her head and thought seriously. Ever since her mother asked her a similar question, she had actually been recalling in her mind what had happened after she came to this villa, but everything seemed normal and nothing special happened.

Kudo Shinichi looked at Mao Lilan, "Ran, you must think about it carefully. Maybe you saw something alone, but we didn't find it and don't know about it."

"Me alone?" Mao Lilan tilted her head and thought seriously.

Jabami Aoi frowned, looked stern, and said in a deep voice: "Has Maori discovered the secret passage or secret door in this villa?"

dong dong...

dong dong dong...

The surroundings were very quiet, only the sounds of breathing and heartbeats could be heard. The last of the firewood had been devoured by the flames, and sparks of fire were flickering in the gray-white ashes. The temperature in the room was gradually dropping, and outside the window there was still the howling north wind and white snow.

"I think I did find something." Mao Lilan's voice was full of uncertainty.

Kisaki Eri looked at Mao Lilan with some uneasiness, "Lan, what did you find?"

Jabami Aoi held his breath and concentrated, his heart beating very fast at this moment.

"Ran, tell me!" Kudo Shinichi looked at Mao Li Ran excitedly, "Maybe you have found the treasure."

Mao Lilan looked towards the kitchen, then looked at Ibaraki Jifeng, and said carefully: "When I came down to find a drink, there was a cabinet, and Ibaraki Butler didn't let me open it. I don't know what's in the cabinet."

Everyone turned to look at Ibaraki Jifeng.

Kudo Shinichi reacted quickly and rushed to the kitchen, not looking like he had just been injured at all.

Jabami Aoi narrowed her eyes slightly and quickly followed Kudo Shinichi to the kitchen.

The kitchen is where the maid Momota Kachiko often stays. The butler Ibaraki Kimifu will come to the kitchen during cooking time. After all, it is impossible to prepare all the dishes relying solely on the maid Kachiko.

Jabami Aoi and Suzumiya Yoruichi quickly searched in the kitchen, and Shiina Arisa quickly joined them.

Eri Kisaki carried Ran Maoli to the kitchen, and Ibaraki Jifeng followed behind.

"That cabinet." Mao Lilan pointed with her bandaged hand to a cabinet that looked like a refrigerator in the corner of the kitchen.

Kudo Shinichi walked over quickly, but Jabami Aoi arrived in front of the cabinet faster than him.

Just as Jabami Aoi was about to open the cabinet door, Ibaraki Jifeng suddenly spoke: "I suggest you don't open it."

Jabami Aoi grasped the handle on the cabinet door, but did not open it.

Kudo Shinichi was startled and shouted: "Be careful, it might be a bomb!"

Jabami Aoi slowly let go of her hand and stared at the cabinet, regretting that she didn't have X-ray vision and could not see through the heavy cabinet door to find out what was inside.

Shiina Arisa seemed to hear some sound and turned to look out the kitchen window, but she found nothing.

Kudo Shinichi took a cup, put it on the cabinet door, put his ear to the bottom of the cup, and listened carefully to the sound inside, but he heard nothing.

Ibaraki Jifeng, who was leaning against the kitchen door, curled up the corners of his mouth and couldn't help but chuckle.

Fei Yingli looked at Ibaraki Jifeng, "Butler Ibaraki, you seem to know what is in the cabinet, can you tell us?"

"There's no treasure in there." Ibaraki Jifeng walked slowly to the door of the cabinet, stretched out his hand to hold the handle of the door, turned his head to look at Mao Lilan in the arms of Hibiki Eri, and said with a smile, "Miss Ran, I didn't intend to show this to everyone, but since you have discovered it, then I will tell you."

After saying that, Ibaraki Jifeng slowly opened the cabinet, and a glass jar containing a grayish-white object appeared in front of everyone.

Kudo Shinichi, who was closest to the cabinet, widened his eyes.

After seeing clearly what was in the glass jar, Jabami Aoi's breathing stopped.

Shiina Arisa froze in place.

Mao Lilan's little face turned pale in an instant, and she put her arms around Kisaki Eri's neck.

Fei Yingli stared at the item in Ibaraki Jifeng's hand, "This is..."

The glass jar in Ibaraki Jifeng's hand contained gray-white broken bones and a not-so-complete skull. The eye sockets of the skull were sunken and empty, like two dark wells, and seemed to be connected to the abyss, as if staring at everyone present.
