Conan: I can hear the murderer's voice

The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became a little awkward. Ayako didn't expect that a casual remark would make her friend so unhappy.

Takahashi acted as a peacemaker, ruffling his hair and saying:

"Ayako, I'm going to go fix the roof, and you guys prepare dinner?"

Ayako said gratefully:

"please."

Conan was speechless.

[Since she was an important friend, why didn't you investigate the truth behind Atsuko's death, instead of letting her commit suicide without knowing the reason? ]

[I must figure out the truth of that year before Lin Xuan arrives]

[But these idiots don't say anything, how can I make inferences based on their own experience? ]

Fortunately, there was one member of the photography club who neither left the living room nor was assigned any work.

Conan was just about to act cute and get some information from the long-haired man, Ota, but he saw Ota inviting Xiaolan in a very greasy tone:

"Beautiful lady, could you walk with me around the villa?"

Ota is indeed quite good-looking, and his long hair has made him the charm of many Japanese girls.

But this level of looks can only make him barely handsome when compared with ordinary people. His looks are not even as good as Kudo Shinichi's.

Not to mention Lin Xuan, who was privately called "pretty boy" by Hattori Heiji.

So when Xiaolan heard Ota's invitation, her mind was full of questions.

【Are you OK? 】

【If you want to take a walk, just take a walk by yourself. What does it have to do with me? 】

[I know you well? ]

Xiaolan's hesitant look only deepened Ota's misunderstanding.

[This little sister is so shy]

[It seems that she has no experience in relationships and is surrounded by ugly men]

[With my looks, I can easily control her! ]

Ota thought he had a sure win and continued to pursue his victory:

"There are some extremely important things that can only be told to you in private. Can you accompany me for a walk outside?"

Xiaolan was still confused.

[Brother, I don’t even remember your name, and you want to tell me something important? ]

【Is it funny? 】

Xiaolan was about to refuse outright, but her daughter is a detective and she herself had experienced cases in the past, which made her begin to doubt.

[Could it be that it's about Miss Atsuko's suicide, and you can only tell me in private because of consideration for others? ]

[There were also people related to the case who were killed by the murderer before they could identify themselves]

[No, I must protect the insider before the senior arrives]

Just like that, Xiaolan, who had the wrong idea, nodded and accepted the invitation.

Ota was ecstatic.

[This little cutie is so easy to fool! ]

[You are so innocent. You can only let me do whatever I want when you go to the forest? ]

And so, Xiaolan followed Ota out of the villa.

Yuanzi was simply stunned.

[Xiaolan, do you want to give the senior to me? ]

[You can't get involved with such a frivolous man.]

Conan clenched his fists.

[Lan, it's okay for you to be fooled by Lin Xuan on a daily basis. After all, that guy's reasoning is quite capable.]

[How could I be tricked out by a scumbag with just a few words? 】

【wrong! 】

Conan grabbed his head and shook it.

[It's not okay to be cheated by Lin Xuan! ]

In short, Sonoko and Conan were afraid that something would really happen between Xiaolan and the scumbag, so they followed them quietly.

Ota took Xiaolan to the forest behind the villa, and the experienced scumbag immediately began to express his love:

"Xiaoqing, no, Xiaolan, I actually fell in love with you at first sight, please give me a..."

"Ah?! What are you talking about?"

Xiaolan interrupted the long-haired handsome guy with disgust on her face.

Ota also realized that the progress this time was a bit too fast. Even if she was a little girl who had never seen a handsome guy, it would be hard not to feel disgusted when she heard these words.

So the scumbag restrained himself a little, and said in a deep voice:

"Who wouldn't be angry when a stranger breaks into the room while I'm changing clothes? I'm no exception, but when I saw how cute she was..."

Xiaolan was so disgusted that she got goosebumps all over the floor. She didn't care about being polite and interrupted the scumbag directly:

"Didn't you ask me out to talk about Miss Atsuko's suicide two years ago?"

Ota looked confused, and said without thinking:

"Of course not. Talking about a dead person would ruin the atmosphere."

Xiaolan finally realized that she had misunderstood, and she turned around and left without wasting even a second.

[When the senior arrives at the villa, it will be hard to explain if this guy continues to pester me.]

But at this moment, Ota actually tried to reach out and stop Xiaolan from leaving.

Before he could even touch Xiaolan, the karate master's automatic defense mechanism was triggered.

In an instant, Ota felt dizzy. His body spun twice in the air and then fell heavily into the trunk of a thick tree.

Ota didn't expect that he would fail in flirting with the girl, and he didn't expect that Xiaolan, who looked like a good girl, would have such terrifying explosive power.

Conan, who was hiding behind and watching all this with Sonoko, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

[Stupid, a karate champion will not be taken advantage of by any pervert or scumbag! ]

But Xiaolan's next words made Conan feel mixed emotions.

"I have someone I like. When senior comes to the villa, you must never do this again."

After saying that, Xiaolan left Ota, who was lying on the ground, and walked away alone.

Neither Sonoko nor Conan paid any attention to Ota who was lying on the ground groaning.

Conan's expression was serious.

Xiaolan's words rekindled his fighting spirit to defeat Lin Xuan.

【Must win! 】

[My reasoning ability will never lose to that guy! ]

No one noticed that a scary monster with bandages wrapped around his face was hiding in the corner of the forest.

Unlike the afternoon, this time the skinny weirdo had a big axe in his hand.

Apparently, the bandaged weirdo also witnessed the moment when Xiaolan punished the scumbag with karate.

[I wanted to find an opportunity to kill her directly]

[I didn’t expect this girl to be so strong]

[I can only do it at night]

But Lin Xuan couldn't get to the villa for a while.

Even though he had solved the case at Beika Station early on, Inspector Megure personally drove him to the appointment to express his gratitude.

However, whether it was the police car, Megure, or Lin Xuan, they were all blocked on the other side of the river.

The only access to the outside world from the villa, the wooden suspension bridge, was cut off. As a police inspector in Beihua, Megure immediately realized the seriousness of the situation:

"I'm afraid it was the prisoner who cut the drawbridge. He wanted to commit a terrible crime in the villa."

This was the first time that Lin Xuan recognized the conclusion drawn by the police:

"I tried to contact Xiaolan, Sonoko, and that kid named Conan, but their phones were all unreachable."

"I don't think the criminals would be alert enough to search the belongings of primary school students and steal their mobile phones. They probably installed a device to block communication signals near the villa."

[Classic snowstorm villa mode, isolated villa]

[The trapped people were unable to contact the outside world, and the murderer took the opportunity to kill the target]

Megure looked up at the cloudy sky and sighed helplessly:

"It just happened to be this time."

The storm was about to come and it was already evening. In this situation, it was not allowed to send a helicopter to the other side for reinforcement, otherwise there was a high probability that a tragedy would occur with the aircraft destroyed and people killed.
