Ke Xue: Ai-chan and I have an agreement

Chapter 55: The Victim is Hamano Toshiya

At the foot of the mountain, Kogoro Mori is in contact with Inspector Megure.

However, the incident took place in a dense forest, and if the rescue team went up the mountain at random, the possibility of accidents happening to them would increase.

Even if a rescue helicopter is dispatched, it may still crash if it hits tree branches or power lines while flying at low altitude.

We can only dispatch police forces to the mountain after daybreak.

However, when Inspector Megure heard that Shiina Yuichi was also there, he instead comforted Mouri Kogoro to believe in Shiina Yuichi's abilities.

With his intelligence, he can definitely protect Xiaolan and the others.

With no other choice, Kogoro Mori had to place his hopes on Yuichi Shiina.

At this moment, their 'savior', Yuichi Shiina, was leisurely drinking coffee at the dining table.

Beside him are Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki.

As for Conan, he was sleeping alone in the bed.

Of course, in addition to the three of them, Naoko Kuroda and Takeki Doi, who served as temporary room managers, were responsible for preparing the dishes on the table.

Sukama Kiyohiro prepared the meal.

The door was opened and Kikue Tanaka, who was in charge of boiling water, also entered the restaurant.

"Hey, where did the others go?" Tanaka Kikue asked, and then found a seat at the dining table and sat down.

"Mr. Hamano is preparing the entertainment program and is still upstairs." Suzuki Sonoko said enthusiastically.

As for the inner part, he was observing Tanaka Kikue's expression.

Before they came down, Shiina Yuichi reminded the two of them to remain normal so as not to be noticed by the arsonist.

Now the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light. If that person notices something is wrong, it is possible that he will burn down the whole house.

Therefore, Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki, who were secretly entrusted with important tasks by Yuichi Shiina, would observe what others were doing from time to time.

As for Shiina Yuichi, he was waiting for dinner with peace of mind.

Are you kidding? How would he know who set the fire? In order not to lose his glorious image in the hearts of the two girls, he could only pretend to be confident.

There was nothing he could do since his major was not suitable for him.

If you ask him to show you a painless knife attack, he can explain all the details to you clearly.

"Mr. Ara went to the wine cellar." Doi Takeshu also explained the whereabouts of Ara Yoshinori.

Just as he finished speaking, Huang Yize walked in with a bottle of wine, muttering that it was so cold.

Then he also found a seat and sat down.

"Now the only ones missing are the Escape King and the Shadow Master. What are they doing?" Tanaka Kikue complained.

"Maybe they are arguing somewhere again." Kuroda Naoko said with a wry smile.

"Don't they have a bad relationship?" Mao Lilan asked with doubts in her mind.

"Yes, they had a quarrel over a magician." Sonoko took over the conversation, frowning.

She really disliked the guy called Shadow Mage. When they were in the chat room, the words between the lines of that guy gave her a very uncomfortable feeling.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about these unhappy things." Huang Yi unscrewed the cork and tried to smooth things over.

"It's hard to say about Shadow Mage, but the Escape King should be appearing soon."

The others didn't say anything more about their affairs.

Shiina Yuichi and the others knew that the suspension bridge had been burned, so even if he wanted to come, he couldn't.

"He's not coming."

Shiina Yuichi couldn't help but nodded when his thoughts were spoken, but he soon realized that something was wrong.

Who is speaking.

This familiar voice is...

He turned his head and saw Conan standing on the floor with a weak look on his face, holding onto the pillar of the stairs.

Conan woke up at some point and appeared in front of everyone.

"Conan!"

Ran Mao Li stood up, ran quickly to Conan and asked with concern.

"how are you feeling?"

"He has been killed in his own home," Conan said the rest of the words.

By the way, he and Uncle Maori told everyone at the scene the report they heard in the car.

The King of Escape is Xishanwu.

The person who took action was the one nicknamed Shadow Mage.

Moreover, judging from the message left by the so-called shadow wizard on Xishanwu’s computer.

It was obvious that the criminal was going to commit another crime, and his target was among the people in the same chat room.

A strange atmosphere surrounded the few people.

Yuichi Shiina also understood why Conan came back.

But if it was the Shadow Mage who did it, then why hasn't this person shown up yet?

It seems that there is no one here with the nickname Shadow Mage.

Who burned the suspension bridge?

Yuichi Shiina shook his head as he thought about the problem. He had no impression of the case and had not obtained any useful clues.

Forget it, let Conan play freely.

"I remember that when these two people had the dispute, Hamano seemed to be involved," recalled Kikue Tanaka.

"Then we have to tell Hamano about this right away." Araki Yoshizawa said in a serious tone, "Where is he now?"

"upstairs."

A group of people came upstairs, and Araki took the lead and knocked on Hamano Toshiya's door, but received no response.

Everyone had a bad feeling.

Araki discovered that the door was not locked, and once the door was opened, everyone found that the room was empty. The French window near the balcony was opened, and the curtains fluttered in the cold wind.

Shiina Yuichi had a premonition.

The first victim is about to appear.

Conan was the first to notice something was wrong. He trotted to the balcony and looked down, but found no signs of Hamano Toshiya falling.

Conan had just breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly heard Xiaolan and Sonoko talking and pointing at the snow not far away.

"So... is it Mr. Hamano?"

Conan looked up and saw a person lying in the snow in the distance.

Could it be...

Conan suddenly felt something was wrong, as there were no traces of trampling on the snow around the man.

This absurd feeling made him feel very uncomfortable.

That location is about 10 meters away from the house.

Everyone reacted and went downstairs at the same time. However, Shiina Yuichi did not follow them. Instead, he stood on the balcony and looked at the man in the snow.

Let me tell you, guys who always like playboys won’t live long.

Conan and his group quickly left the house. Doi Takeshu walked to the body first and confirmed his death.

He also opened his hands to stop anyone who wanted to get close.

In response to other people's doubts, Conan also gave reasons.

Because there were no footprints around the corpse, only the footprints of Doi Takeshu who ran over, and it hasn't snowed since Conan came back, so it is impossible for the footprints to be covered by snow.

The body was far away from the villa, and it was impossible to dump it to this location with human power, so this was a crime that could not be committed without wings.

After observing the corpse, Doi Takeki gave the reason why Hamano Toshiya would not commit suicide.

There were marks of being strangled with a thin rope on his neck and the cause of death was suffocation.

It was obvious that someone had strangled him and then put him here by some means.

Seeing that someone had died, everyone's faces changed, and Tanaka Kikue even wanted to leave.

However, Conan told them that the only suspension bridge leading to the foot of the mountain had been burned down and they were all trapped in the mountain villa.

Sonoko and Mao Lilan, who already knew that the suspension bridge was burned, also spoke up to testify.

Conan was a little surprised. He didn't seem to have mentioned the suspension bridge before. How did they know about it?

Ran Mouri explained that it was Yuichi Shiina who discovered the suspension bridge.

Conan looked at Shiina Yuichi who was still on the balcony looking at them.

That guy is still so sharp.

However, after knowing that Shiina Yuichi was here, he actually felt a lot more at ease.

Evening, 11:10.

Knowing that they couldn't leave for the time being, everyone came to the dining table on the first floor and sat down.

Different from the solemn expressions of others.

Shiina Yuichi started to finish the food in front of him.

It's already been done, it would be a waste if you don't eat it.

The way he ate with such relish left Conan speechless.

Hey, hey, how can you still eat? You're dying.

However, when he thought of Shiina Yuichi's identity, he felt relieved. He was indeed a member of that organization. How cold-blooded.

Ever since Shiina Yuichi revealed his identity, Conan has thought about whether he should call the police to arrest this guy and force him to reveal information about the organization.

After all, he felt that Yuichi Shiina, who could kill more than 200 people in a year, would not be a good person.

But if he really did that, he might be exposed. After all, according to the information he got from Yuichi Shiina, the organization is very powerful and they might have people in the Metropolitan Police Department.

In addition, the organization has not caused him any trouble until now, which means that Shiina Yuichi has never betrayed him.

Sometimes, he even wondered if Yuichi Shiina was an undercover agent sent by some official organization to infiltrate the winery.

But an undercover agent who killed more than 200 people, even if the official organization has great means, they cannot wash away this guy's sins.

Due to lack of evidence, he did not ask Shiina Yuichi for confirmation.

He had a feeling that Shiina Yuichi would not tell him the truth.

After spending a few times together, he found that Shiina Yuichi's personality was a little unpredictable.

Especially like to braid his hair.

In fact, he was a little prejudiced against Shiina Yuichi. If he had seen with his own eyes how Shiina Yuichi treated the Miyano sisters, he probably wouldn't have had the same thoughts just now.

Putting aside the thoughts in his mind, Conan began to think about the case.

Yuanzi, who was standing by, suddenly began to blame herself, with tears in her eyes.

Because when the tasks were assigned today, she served as the assistant, which means that everyone's tasks were related to her.

If it weren't for her, Hamano Toshiya would not have gone back to his room alone to think about the show.

At this time, Doi Takeshu made a heartwarming speech.

"You didn't know it would be like this, and weren't you blindfolded while cooperating with Mr. Hamano's magic? No one knows what task they will be assigned."

"In this completely random probability event."

"We have no reason to blame you, so you don't have to blame yourself."

Shiina Yuichi also stopped eating, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and then spoke.

"After all, it was that Shadow Mage who did it. After I find him, I will teach her a painful lesson, so Sonoko, you don't have to blame yourself."

With the comfort of Takeki Doi and Yuichi Shiina, Sonoko felt a little better.

The rest of the people also started discussing about the Shadow Mage.

Conan also started using his brain, listening to their stories and collecting useful information.
