Conan: My system is lawless

"Yes, Officer Megure, are you here?"

From time to time, there was a whistling sound of wind coming from the other end of the phone, and Megure Jusan's voice was almost a roar.

"Luckily, I heard your voice when Mr. Minagawa called the police just now. It seems that the phone line on your end was cut by the wind!! So the landline can't be reached at all!"

"Inspector Megure, are you here?"

Maybe the cell phone signal was bad, Kusadokawa repeated the same question.

"Mr. Kusadogawa, the wind is too strong here. I can't hear you clearly, but you have to remember what I'm going to say next. We are now on the other side of the island, but this suspension bridge has been burned down and is broken. We can't use a helicopter to come here because the wind is too strong... Mr. Kusadogawa, you're on your own. In fact, the castle of Mr. Minagawa's family is said to be a cursed one..."

“Beep, beep, beep….”

Before Megure Jusan could finish his words, a busy tone came from the other end of the phone.

When Kusadokawa wanted to call again, he found that no one answered.

It seems that due to the strong wind, the mobile phone signal is not good.

But Inspector Megure just said that this is a cursed castle...

Cursed what?

people?

castle?

Katsuhiko Minagawa hurried over to ask.

"Lawyer Kusadokawa, Officer Megure and the others are here?"

Kusadokawa looked around at everyone. Although it would increase their panic, Kusadokawa did not intend to hide this news.

"Inspector Megure said that the suspension bridge to the island has been burned down. The wind is too strong now, and the helicopter can't get through!"

There was a flash of fear in Watanabe Yoshimi's eyes.

"In other words, we were trapped here on purpose?"

Katsuhiko Minagawa murmured.

"What did that man want to do by burning the drawbridge and trapping us here?"

When the mouse doll and the note were just discovered, Katsuhiko Minagawa was not in the hall, so Mitsutani Kaori told Katsuhiko Minagawa about it. Katsuhiko Minagawa's eyes were filled with surprise, and although he quickly recovered, he was still caught by Kusanagi.

"You guys sit here for a while, I'm going to go out and see what's going on with the wires!"

Guang Gu Xiang said with a worried look on her face.

"Why don't we go together? After all, we still have an unknown enemy entrenched on the island. It might be dangerous for you to act alone!"

Seeing this, Katsuhiko Minagawa did not refuse, and everyone followed Katsuhiko out the door holding umbrellas.

When I pushed the door open and went outside, I felt like I was going to be blown away by the wind. Everyone was clinging to the wall, walking slowly one after another. It was pouring rain above, and even though we had umbrellas, everyone was soaked without exception.

Several electric wires on the ground fell to the ground, and the broken distance was very long, making a crackling sound of electricity from time to time.

"Look, what is this!!"

Zhidao found a black box on the ground, but the box had been charred by lightning. Yuanzi took the box and looked at it, his eyes lit up.

"This is a device that can attract lightning. Someone deliberately took advantage of the heavy rain to place the device on the power lines, attracting lightning to cut the entire power line!!"

Boom! ! !

The sudden lightning illuminated everyone's expression, and everyone was terrified without exception. Sonoko buried her head in Kusadokawa's arms.

"Kusagi-gawa, I'm scared!!!"

Kusadokawa hugged Sonoko, comforted her in a soft voice, patted her back gently, and let the rain slide down his cheeks.

"This must be a premeditated crime. I initially suspect that the murderer who planned all this and killed Wakamatsu Toshihide is among us!"

Zhi Dao asked quickly.

"Is it possible that no one else could have entered the island?"

"No way!"

Kusadokawa said in a decisive tone.

"Just to remove the nine mouse dolls and the note in the hall, it would take someone who can walk around the villa normally without arousing suspicion. If an intruder were to do all this, I'm afraid he would be discovered as soon as he came in!"

"So the murderer is among us!"

Watanabe Haomei couldn't help but shudder.

"Then....then let's go back quickly!"

The crowd came out from the main gate of the castle, walked around the castle half a circle, and now wanted to enter the house from the back door of the castle. On the way, they passed by the castle parking lot. Without exception, all the cars originally parked here had their tires punctured.

"Keyan, it seems Keyan's car is still fine!!"

At this time, Kusadokawa fell into deep thought.

Since the murderer had already burned the suspension bridge, why did he puncture everyone's wheels?

Could it be that there are two different people carrying out their own plans?

A man burned down the suspension bridge!

A guy punctured a tire!

The most crucial thing is that because the parking lot is behind the castle, the people in the hall at the time could not see the location of the parking lot at all, which gave the man plenty of time to commit the crime.

Sonoko was so angry that she put her hands on her hips and began to question Katsuhiko Minagawa.

"Keyan, could it be you who punctured our tires so that you could leave us here and drive away alone?"

Katsuhiko Minagawa chuckled.

"I don't know where I lost my car keys, and I haven't driven the car for two months!"

"Besides, Miss Sonoko, if I want to escape from here, I will definitely take you with me!!"

Suzuki Sonoko really couldn't stand this greasy man, so she took a few steps back and hid beside Kusadokawa.

Naomichi reminded quietly from behind Katsuhiko Minagawa.

"Ke Yan, Miss Sonoko already has a boyfriend. Is it really okay for you to flirt with his girlfriend in front of her boyfriend?"

"I want you to take care of it!!"

Katsuhiko Minagawa glared at Naoki coldly, then looked at Kusadokawa.

"I was just talking nonsense, I didn't really do it, what does it matter? Mr. Kusadokawa shouldn't mind, right?"

Sosadokawa really doesn't have time to deal with Katsuhiko Minagawa.

Because he found a very special leaf on Katsuhiko Minagawa's car.

The leaf was oval in shape, with a distinct stem, and it fell right into the gap between the roof of the car, so that even the strong wind and heavy rain could not knock it down.

This tree is very common in China and is called camphor tree!

When this season comes, the leaves will fall in large flakes.

But Kusadogawa looked around the castle and found that there seemed to be no camphor trees around.

"Mr. Minagawa, are there any camphor trees around your castle?"

“Camphor tree?”

Katsuhiko Minagawa frowned slightly, not understanding why Sosado asked this, so he was full of caution when answering.

"This...I really don't know much about this!"

“There are no camphor trees near our home!”

"Because the fallen leaves of camphor trees are too difficult to clean, Keyan's father cut down all the camphor trees around seven years ago. If I remember correctly, there may still be a few camphor trees near the suspension bridge!"

A firm voice came from behind.

Everyone turned around and found that it was Mrs. Minakawa.

"Mr. Kusadokawa, it's pointless to ask Ke Yan this question. He doesn't know much about these things!"
