Conan kissed me again and again, and Huiyuan was stunned

"Uh-huh."

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi adhere to scientific ideas and do not believe in things like curses. They nodded perfunctorily and were about to interrupt the topic.

"I'm telling you!"

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya sat on the left of Genta Kojima, holding the open textbook in both hands, looking back and forth at Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi, and whispered solemnly:

"Something has become a well-known rumor in the school."

"Isn't it just the seven incredible events that happen in school?"

Kudo Shinichi looked at Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya and narrated in a low voice without caring:

"For example, there were pianos that played themselves and stairs that had an inexplicable increase in the number of steps."

"It's not such a childish legend!"

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya refuted with righteous words, and said in a deep and low voice:

“It was early in the morning a week ago when a girl from this school walked into the art room.

She loved the huge paintings in the art room and went there every morning to look at them, but that day was different.”

A few beads of sweat oozed from Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya's pretty face, and he spoke softly, creating a thrilling atmosphere as if he were there:

"The girl felt that the environment in the art room was a little weird, and she was scared and wanted to go back to her classroom, but she unexpectedly saw...

Eight plaster statues in the art room!!

The statues gathered together, staring at her with their cold white eyes. It was terrifying! "

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya leaned forward and nervously whispered for approval:

"How about it?

This kind of encounter...isn't it particularly mysterious?"

"It's just a coincidence."

Kudo Shinichi shrugged indifferently and smiled casually.

Dongfang Haoyue is the exact opposite.

She decisively opened the system panel and found that the energy points were rising rapidly as expected. Her expression gradually became solemn.

Kudo Shinichi keenly noticed the change in Dongfang Haoyue's expression and looked at her with a question mark on his face.

Haoyue calmed his mind slightly, turned to look at Shinichi, his black pupils flashing with an obscure light.

Kudo Shinichi's expression suddenly changed.

Based on the changes in Dongfang Haoyue's expression, he instantly realized that what Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya described was of great significance, and he couldn't help but tense his handsome face.

next second.

"It's not a coincidence!"

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya stared at Kudo Shinichi closely and emphasized in a low voice:

"That girl went out of her way to confirm that she was not mistaken, and confirmed the abnormality in the art room!"

"Confirmed?"

Kudo Shinichi calmed down a little and looked at Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya seriously.

"Correct!"

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya sat up straight, nodded seriously, and shuddered as he spoke softly:

“After school that day, the girls marked the wooden table where the plaster statue was placed and the statue itself.

The next morning, she discovered that the eight statues had been moved overnight!"

"Moved?"

Dongfang Haoyue's posture remained unchanged, but his words were filled with caution.

"That's right!"

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya looked towards the bright moon in the east and said tremblingly:

"After that day, the girl caught a cold and had a fever, and has not come to school until today."

"Cold and fever..."

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi calmed down a little and looked at each other.

Haoyue smiled awkwardly, and muttered to himself:

"Isn't it just a normal illness?

The plot this time can't be that the criminal deliberately gave the cold to us students, right?"

"It's not just her."

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya glanced at the empty seat on the left with a tense expression, and said in a low voice of panic:

"Didn't you notice?

Recently, the number of students in this school... has been decreasing.”

"Oh."

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi turned their heads to look at the empty seats, and said calmly in unison:

"I heard there's an epidemic of colds these days."

Actually...

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi were of one mind, and they complained quietly in their hearts:

"Although I know that I will most likely encounter another case today, I can guarantee that my cold and fever have nothing to do with the case!"

"Those students who caught a cold and a fever may all be cursed by the plaster statue."

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya became more and more nervous as he spoke.

"Humph."

Kojima Genta held the open textbook in his left hand, covered his lips with his right hand, looked back and forth at Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi, and revealed as well as anyone else:

"The rumors I heard were more powerful than plaster statues!"

"what?"

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi held the open textbooks in their hands and looked at Kojima Genta in surprise.

A few beads of sweat oozed out of Yuantai's cheeks, and he asked for approval in a horrified manner:

"There's a scary mannequin in the school's health room, isn't there?"

"Um... mannequins..."

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi looked at each other again, unable to understand what kind of terrible rumors the human body model could have.

"On the night four days ago..."

Kojima Genta's tone was low but his style suddenly changed. He leaned forward, opened his mouth, and said in a terrifying panic:

“That mannequin is running!!!

It was running down the corridor at a very fast speed!!”

"what?"

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi were stunned.

Kojima Genta added cautiously in a low voice:

"There were quite a few people who saw the mannequin running. It is said that five senior students who were staying in school for extra classes witnessed the incident together!"

"Um......"

Kudo Shinichi thought for a moment and then confirmed in a serious tone:

"Are you sure they're not kidding you?"

at the same time.

Dongfang Haoyue put down the textbook, put his hands in his pockets, stared at Kojima Genta intently, and analyzed solemnly in his heart:

“The mannequins are running?

Could it be a new method of killing? !

This should not be underestimated and must be investigated in depth!"

"Hey, Ayumi!"

Kojima Genta put down the textbook, turned to look at Yoshida Ayumi, and anxiously whispered for confirmation:

"Hurry up and tell Conan and Haoyue about the strange things you've seen recently!"

Yoshida Ayumi was stunned. She tried her best to hold the textbook steadily, turned her head slightly to the left and looked at Kojima Genta, without saying a word.

"what?"

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi looked at Yoshida Ayumi in surprise and confirmed cautiously in a low voice:

"Did Ayumi also see something strange?"

"Yes... yes..."

Ayumi Yoshida lowered her head slightly, looking straight ahead without focusing on anything, her fair face full of anxiety.

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi witnessed this scene, and their handsome faces became even more solemn.

They stood on the wooden table, holding the textbooks tightly, looking at each other with one mind, and asserted vigilantly in their hearts:

"It seems that something troublesome has happened in this school or is about to happen!"

"all in all!"

Genta Kojima was so immersed in the horror atmosphere that he completely forgot his current situation.

He stood up excitedly, bent over greatly, supported himself with both hands on the edge of the wooden table near Kudo Shinichi, looked back and forth at Dongfang Haoyue and Shinichi, and said nervously in a low voice:

"If our detective team doesn't investigate quickly, things will get more serious..."

"despair!"

It was the crisp sound of a slender teaching stick hitting Kojima Motota's head.
