Mingyue smiled slightly and placed the manuscript with "Treasure of the Void" written on the cover in front of Ibaraki Jifeng, "I think you should have seen this, the manuscript of Mr. Moritaro's novel that has not been published yet, and it is also the solution to the mystery of "The Vanishing Conductor"."

"You shouldn't call your father Mr. Moritaro, you should call him Grandpa." Shao Nan patiently corrected "Yi Ji"'s mistakes.

Mingyue glanced at Shirigata Shaonan and said, "I think Mr. Moritaro named his previous book "The Disappearing Conductor" for a reason. After all, the person responsible for implementing the project is also called a conductor, just like killing people. Just like conducting and controlling a band, controlling those people to kill each other." Mingyue looked at Ibaraki Jifeng who was observing.

Ibaraki Jifeng began to examine this young girl carefully. In his impression, Baosheng Yiji was just a bastard born by some wild man after the third lady Shuying ran away from home. She should be like him, being trampled in the mud forever.

Jabami Aoi looked at "Yi Ji". Although one of the reasons he transferred to Teitan Junior High School was to help Shao Nan investigate his niece, it happened that Yi Ji was hospitalized due to illness. It would be too deliberate to go to the hospital to visit her rashly, so he only learned some information about Yi Ji from others.

I thought she was just an ordinary girl, but I didn't expect her performance to be so amazing. Jabami Aoi couldn't help but compare "Yi Ji" with her sisters who were loved by her mother. She actually felt that "Yi Ji" was not inferior at all, but was a little weak. If she took care of herself, she might get better.

Or he could try to ask his sisters to get some medicine for Yi Ji, after all, she saved Shao Nan. She Kui looked at Yi Ji's pale and bloodless face and pondered the feasibility of doing this.

"For example, this manuscript describes how to kill the hostess of the villa with frozen squid, and how to use a double-hearted pot with a double-pot design to kill the young lady who doesn't like sweets." Mingyue seemed to be flipping through the manuscript casually.

Suzumiya Yoruichi pushed up her glasses and looked at Shirigata Shaonan, "So Mr. Moritaro anticipated everything that was about to happen, so he wrote this book of the future, and reminded us that as long as we find it, we can change the direction of the future."

After hearing this, Kudo Shinichi frowned, "Since Mr. Moritaro knew everything, why didn't Mr. Moritaro tell everyone directly, but instead told everyone in this way? If he had told them earlier, they wouldn't have died!"

Mingyue closed the manuscript on the desk and looked at Ibaraki Jifeng, "After all, everyone has their own agenda. Telling them will only cause unnecessary trouble. If we use something like the treasure to attract everyone's attention, making everyone involved worry about their own safety, we can also try to divert the murderer's attention."

Ibaraki Jifeng felt several gazes directed at him, and he just shrugged helplessly, straightened his meticulous butler suit, and with a professional smile on his face, he looked at "Yi Ji" and said with a very contemptuous tone, "I only know that the old man wrote this book, but I didn't expect that he actually regarded this book as a treasure."

Shao Nan opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but swallowed the words back.

Ibaraki Jifeng looked around and sneered, "Oh, it's still the treasure of the void. I think that old man's money will probably be spent by Madam Cha." Ibaraki Jifeng looked at Shirigata Shaonan, "In fact, I have always suspected that you are the son of that old man. After all, you are so old that you can be your mother's father."

Shirigata Shaonan's breathing stagnated. He had never thought about this question before. He slowly lowered his head, hiding his expression in a shadow.

Jabami Aoi looked at Shao Nan worriedly, but didn't know how to persuade him.

Shirigata Shaonan thought of his mother's tragic death and the words his late father said to his mother in the videotape.

"Am I not my father's child?"

This sentence kept echoing in Shirigata Shaonan's mind. He recalled the past and tried to prove that he was his father's child. However, his mind flashed back to the time when he said that Ibaraki Jifeng was his half-brother, and was dragged into the bathtub by Ibaraki Jifeng and almost drowned.

That horrible feeling of suffocation seemed to still linger in Shirogata Shaonan's heart, becoming an indelible nightmare.

Mingyue glanced at Shigata Shaonan, whose eyes were lifeless, and said, "After all, he is the young master of the Shigata family, and what about you? You are just a servant of the Shigata family, or an illegitimate child who cannot be shown to the public?"

After his identity was exposed, Ibaraki Jifeng looked stern, and his icy eyes stared straight at "Yi Ji".

There was a sharp explosion in Kisaki Eri's mind, and she saw Ibaraki Jifeng pull out a sharp knife that was flashing with cold light from his sleeve.

"It doesn't matter. If I can't kill you in one go, I can kill you again." Ibaraki Jifeng rushed towards "Yiji" with a knife in hand.

Mao Lilan landed on the ground with both feet and wanted to run over, but when her feet touched the ground, she felt a piercing pain.

Mingyue stretched out the hand hidden behind her back, and a crossbow appeared in front of everyone. The sharp arrow tip pointed directly at Ibaraki Jifeng, causing him to pause slightly.

At this moment, Kisaki Eri was about to step forward and knock the sharp knife out of Ibaraki Jifeng's hand, but was noticed by Ibaraki Jifeng.

Ibaraki Jifeng waved his sword to force Hibiki Eri to retreat, "Do you know how to use a crossbow? Do you want me to teach you..."

huh~

Ding!

Before Ibaraki Jifeng could finish his words, Mingyue had already shot the crossbow, and the tip of the arrow hit the knife directly. The violent impact caused the knife to slip out of his hand.

Just when Ibaraki Jifeng's attention was attracted by "Yiji", Kisaki Eri stepped forward and subdued Ibaraki Jifeng with a naked choke.

Jabami Aoi quickly dug out a set of strong hemp ropes, and together they tied up the stubbornly resisting Ibaraki Jifeng to the dining chair.

Ibaraki Jifeng looked at "Yiji" viciously.

Suzumiya Yoruichi held her chin and looked at Mingyue who was installing arrows on the crossbow. There was a hint of regret in her dark eyes. She walked to Mingyue and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Alas, kind people are easy to be bullied. People like him must be severely punished." Suzumiya Yoruichi's voice was full of temptation, and her clear voice reached the depths of the soul.

Mingyue just lowered her eyes and continued to install arrows in silence.

Kudo Shinichi helped Mao Lilan sit on the chair, looked at the gauze on Mao Lilan's feet that was gradually turning red, squatted down worriedly to check, and complained: "You are injured and you don't sit properly. Does your foot hurt now? Is it itchy and painful? You want to scratch it but can't?"

"Shinichi!" Mao Lilan said angrily, "You are just here to laugh at me!"

Kudo Shinichi was slightly stunned. "How could that be! I just hope you can protect yourself and not get hurt again. I know the feeling of frostbite. If the blisters are broken, they will form scabs, which will be even more uncomfortable."

Jabami Aoi glanced at Shao Nan who was still standing there motionless, dug out some new gauze and handed it to Kudo Shinichi, "Apply medicine again and bandage it thicker, at least it can provide some protection. We don't know how long we will have to stay here."

The clock on the wall was ticking, the sky outside the window was pitch black, the howling north wind was blowing up the snowflakes, blurring the vision, with no end in sight, like an inner world deep inside, isolated from the outside world.

Will someone come to rescue them?

Kudo Shinichi has taken out his phone to check countless times. No matter where he is or when, there is still no signal. Will his parents be worried? Will they find this place?
