Conan's organization will end sooner or later without me

Yin Jiu's words of "comfort" obviously did not have a positive effect.

Just then, Mao Lilan and Sonoko were coming down the stairs. When they heard these words, they immediately ran down in two steps at a time.

"Xiao Jiu, did you really see that bandaged man floating over?"

Surrounded by three emotion value generators, Yin Jiu was in a very good mood. He touched his chin in a thoughtful manner until he felt the output of emotion value began to decline. Then he said in a faint voice, "When a normal person runs forward, his body should lean forward, and his legs will also bend forward because of running."

"But what I saw at the time was that the hem of the bandaged man's robe didn't move, and the wind was very strong at the time, so the whole robe was blown backwards, and he was also leaning backwards, as if he was floating away."

"Then, then Conan and the others are chasing them." Ran Mouri was shaking with fear. When she thought of Conan chasing in the front, her tone became tearful.

"It'll be fine. Children have strong yang energy..." Yin Jiu also thought of his small goal of rushing out in the crowd. Seeing that the emotional value was almost harvested, he changed the subject and planned to stop while he was ahead. "However, although it seems incredible, I still think it is more likely to be man-made than a supernatural event."

"So if it's not an indiscriminate kidnapping attack, Ran-senpai, Sonoko-senpai, Conan and I should all be safe for the time being."

"You suspect someone at the party did it." Suzuki Ayako also reacted immediately, the darkness outside the window reflected in her eyes. "That's right, the landline broke down at this time, what a coincidence."

"It's not just this," Yin Jiu shook his head and pointed to the back door. "When I closed the back door just now, I saw a pair of women's slippers over there. Except for Ikeda, all the girls here still wear shoes indoors. I think those shoes must have been taken off by Ikeda when she went out the back door."

"And the person who could make her change her slippers and leave through the back door without saying anything at this time must be someone she knows. Otherwise, if it wasn't one of us, he should have informed you in advance anyway."

"But if one of us kidnapped Ikeda, why not just hide him? Why use props to perform this in front of us?" Suzuki Ayako felt that Yin Jiu's reasoning made sense, but she felt that some of the details were terrifying. "What on earth does that person want to do?"

"I don't know about that." Yin Jiu glanced at Suzuki Ayako's shrunken pupils, and in the end did not point out the cruel truth, but kicked the question away like a ball, "Let's wait and see, maybe the people who come back will tell us."

-

So when Conan and the others came back, they suddenly found that the atmosphere in the room was a little heavy.

"What...what happened?"

Takahashi Ryoichi couldn't help but ask.

"Brother Gaoqiao, you're here just in time," Yin Jiu stood beside the telephone with a heavy expression, "After you left, we called the police, but there seems to be some problem with the telephone. Can you come and take a look?"

"What!" Takahashi Ryoichi reacted violently. He almost ran to the phone and started fiddling with it. "Damn it! The Bandage Man must have cut the phone line! He's already killed Ikeda, what else does he want to do?"

"Ikeda is dead?"

Although she had expected it, Suzuki Ayako still couldn't hold back her tears when she heard the bad news. She covered her face with her hands and burst into tears.

"What is going on?" Mouri Ran had been observing everyone's expressions. When she saw Ayako crying bitterly and Sonoko looking worried and at a loss, she clenched her fists and felt a sense of suffocation in her heart.

However, before everyone could vent their emotions, Takahashi suddenly stood up and ran outside, "I have to go check out the suspension bridge outside!"

"Hey! Don't do it alone!"

Several people were shocked and ran out without discussing Ikeda's miserable condition.

Yin Jiu walked at the back, neither hurried nor slow.

The main reason was that the smell of blood was everywhere, and his yellow hunger bar was slowly moving down.

Secondly, he found that Takahashi's hostility towards him had further increased.

Good news!

Yin Jiu's expression immediately became relaxed. He silently encoded the energy value all the way and quietly distributed the wealth to everyone. However, Conan approached him at an inappropriate time.

Yin Jiu took a quick glance at the little carrot head. There was no energy in him at all, so he looked away with a lack of interest.

"Yin Jiu, did you find anything?" Conan didn't notice Yin Jiu's disgust. He walked to Yin Jiu's side in a familiar manner, feeling depressed.

This guy looked so relaxed just now, did he discover something in advance?

It was clearly him who followed everyone around, so when did Yin Jiu find the clue?

"I have made some discoveries," Yin Jiu was in a really good mood and was willing to give Conan a little more patience. He lowered his eyes, and the bright wine red showed a more viscous texture in the night, like a pool of flowing blood. "If I were a murderer hiding in the jungle, and was planning to kill a group of unlucky people gathering in a remote villa. Then I definitely don't want to be discovered that I cut off the suspension bridge before the final massacre comes."

"why?"

"Because we have a lot of people here." Yin Jiu pointed at the people in front with his chin, "Let's not talk about karate champions like Mao Lilan. Just use the current number of people. There are three young and strong adult men. Although I don't look like I can fight, there should be a lot of weapons in the villa. Just pick up a knife, and there will be seven of us in total."

"If everyone didn't know the suspension bridge had been cut, they might still hide in the villa, thinking of going down the mountain from the suspension bridge the next day. But once they realized their last escape route had been blocked, they would most likely fight back desperately. This way, it wouldn't be so easy for me to invade and kill people next time."

"The second is the fun. The murderer cut the suspension bridge, if not just to stop others from running down the mountain, it could also be due to some evil and perverted desire. For example, if someone is chased to this road, the other party thinks that if they go forward, they can run down the mountain, but they unexpectedly see the suspension bridge broken, and then show a look of despair."

"Hey, don't let yourself become such a perverted murderer." Conan's eyes narrowed, but he quickly reacted. "So now this situation that is totally inconsistent with the mentality of a murderer may actually mean that the murderer is actually among us, and he has other purposes?"

"Yes, when you went out, I found the slippers that Ikeda had changed out of before leaving the back door."

"So when you told us that there was a problem with the phone line, you were actually trying to trick us... No..."

An arc of light flashed through Conan's mind.

"Are you doubting Takahashi?"

Conan looked up and found that Yin Jiu had already walked around him and was heading towards the suspension bridge.

"This guy is just being perfunctory again!" Conan gritted his teeth. Every time he discussed the case with Yin Jiu, Yin Jiu would reveal some clues.

But every time, he never tells the whole story. This behavior... This behavior is like deliberately guiding children to learn how to solve crimes.

It seemed like I already knew the correct answer, but seeing that he was still struggling, I gave him some clues and encouragement.

Then continue to watch him grow.

Conan understood that this was Yin Jiu's kindness. For the seven-year-old Conan, it would definitely be beneficial to have such an older brother who was willing to guide him subtly.

But for the seventeen-year-old Kudo Shinichi, he felt that he was looked down upon, and that the look down upon him was very severe.

Conan was very depressed, the kind of depression that he couldn't vent.

But Yin Jiu didn't think so much about it. He just felt that he couldn't remember many of the plots, and he couldn't say for sure that the world had already changed beyond recognition because of the appearance of the Straw family.

In short, he did not intend to directly recall the comic clips in the past, but told himself to forget everything and treat the world from the perspective of a person who truly lives in this world.

The suspension bridge was cut off from the villa end, and dense scratches remained on the wooden piles.

Yin Jiu squatted beside the scratch, made a gesture with his hands and shook his head regretfully, "It seems that we can only walk down the mountain together tomorrow."

"What should we do now?" The Maori group who were originally in the room had apparently formed a small group, subconsciously centered around Yin Jiu.

"Now? Of course I should go back to sleep," Yin Jiu raised his head in confusion, "If we have to walk on the mountain road tomorrow, we'd better go back and rest now."

"That's right. Instead of wasting time here, it's better to go back early."

Ota Katsu agreed, put his hands in his pockets, turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey, that's a bit too cold." Kakutani said this, but his body followed behind honestly.

"Everyone seems suspicious." Mao Lilan and Sonoko huddled together, looking worried.

Suzuki Ayako also saw through her plastic club sentiment and sighed silently.

Conan was walking quietly behind them for a rare moment, and he saw that several girls, including Mouri Ran, were visibly wilting.

How did Yin Jiu lock onto Takahashi?

Conan turned his gaze back to Yin Jiu and saw the curly-haired boy yawning, with tears of sleepiness faintly appearing in the corners of his eyes.

"..."

This guy really is...

Conan couldn't find an adjective.

Doesn't this guy know that it's too much to keep half and half?

Yin Jiu was completely unaware of his friend's excitement.

He followed the group and groped his way back to his room, picking up the pseudo-elementary school student who wanted to continue exploring the living room.

"Excuse me," Suzuki Ayako held the door of Yin Jiu's room, which was about to close, "Can we talk?"

"...Okay." Yin Jiu quietly glanced at the empty corridor outside, took two steps back and let the person in.

Conan was originally feeling a little bored following Yin Jiu in the room, but at this moment he suddenly became alert.

I couldn't help but think of something wrong in my mind.

Suzuki Ayako is the initiator of this club gathering, and the attendees actually include prop masters, famous screenwriters, newspaper reporters, and the eldest daughter of the Suzuki Group who can be the client's father.

hiss. . .

Put together, this is already a team of certain size, especially if we add Yin Jiu, a star who has a high international status but has never been involved in the Japanese field.

Whether you want to take the idol route or the talented route, you already have enough capital.

So is there going to be a py transaction between adults next?

Conan was secretly looking forward to it, but things did not develop according to his ideas at all.
