Establishing the Teyvat Organization in KO
Chapter 35 Lavender Villa Secret Room Murder Case
Matsumoto Seinaga looked at the phone call that had just been hung up, calmed down his joy at knowing that his daughter was fine, walked up to Takasugi Toshihiko, bent down and apologized for the mistake that indirectly caused his mother's death.
Toshihiko Takasugi looked at his enemy bending down in front of him, thought of Sayuri, and tears flowed uncontrollably from his eyes, and some of the hatred in his heart was relieved.
So why don't you talk to each other in advance? Don't you have a mouth? Keep things to yourself.
Xia Xi secretly complained.
At this time, Xia Xi saw Matsumoto Kiyonaga walking towards her, and was a little surprised what he wanted to talk to her about at this time.
"Ms. Natsume, thank you very much for persuading my daughter. As for your request, I will do my best to help you find your brother."
That's just an excuse!
Xia Xi felt a little embarrassed. Looking at Sheriff Matsumoto's earnest and grateful eyes, she could only smile awkwardly and thank him.
The matter came to an end, and it seemed that the wedding would not be able to take place - Xia Xi knew that with Conan around, there was no way this wedding could be completed smoothly.
However, Xia Xi was still a little angry. She endured it, but before leaving, she couldn't help but turn around and slap Takasugi Toshihiko - ha, what an idiot who didn't understand the situation and only knew how to attack innocent girls!
Conan: "..."
Hey, Xia Xi, what are you doing? Is it okay to hit someone directly in front of so many police officers?
He looked around, speechless. The policemen around him subconsciously looked away, pretending not to see anything.
It seems that even though they have agreed not to pursue the matter, the police officers around still have some complaints about someone trying to harm their colleague/superior's daughter.
On the way back, Xia Xi thought about it and sent a message to Diluk, telling him what happened today.
Alas, it is unfortunate for the Takasugi Group to have such an heir.
Although everyone agreed not to tell anyone about what happened today at Sayuri Matsumoto's request, there is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable. With so many people knowing about this incident, the news will leak out to some extent, which will definitely have a negative impact on the Takasugi Group.
Isn't this a great opportunity for outside intervention?
Currently, Diluk’s industries and influence are basically in Country H, but Japan is where the main plot takes place, so he has to find a way to intervene in some Japanese industries.
Now that the Takasugi Group is about to run into trouble, wouldn't it be possible to get the most benefit if we act first before other groups receive the news and react?
Ah, the Takasugi Group is already in such bad luck, isn’t it a bad idea for me to add insult to injury? - Xia Xi condemned herself, and then did what she had to do.
After returning home and opening the system to check the task rewards, Xia Xi was surprised to find that there was actually a world task today, and it had been completed.
She opened the task description:
[World Mission: Prelude to Detective Koshien
In this world full of detectives, a detective-related Koshien event is about to be held in the future. And now, in the beautiful lavender villa, its prelude has begun.
Mission requirements: Solve the Lavender Villa case]
Let’s go back to an earlier time.
Shikoku, Lavender Villa.
"Ms. Lisa, we're here. This is where I work now."
Noelle led Lisa into the Lavender Villa.
That’s right, this place is the identity Noelle was assigned when she appeared in this world—a maid in a villa.
It is said that something happened to the maid who previously worked in this villa, so Noelle was hired to work in the villa.
Although Noelle felt a little embarrassed to leave after working for so little time, the travelers were more important.
Fortunately, the housekeeper of the villa was easy to talk to and did not make things difficult for her. He just asked Noelle to finish the work during this period and then let her leave.
Noelle is very grateful to the butler, Mr. Renzo Kotani. So when she heard that the accident of the maid who worked before her was related to the murder case of the young lady in the secret room of this villa, she wanted to find the murderer of the young lady before leaving to make Mr. Kotani happy.
But she was really not good at solving cases, so she could only collect some information first and then ask other people for help.
Noelle saw how hard the traveler worked and felt bad to trouble her. Lisa happened to be free and offered to help after hearing about this.
"There are really a lot of lavender in this villa. Did the lady like lavender very much in the past?" Lisa asked as there were lavender everywhere in the villa.
"Yes, according to Mr. Jia Gu, the young lady used to like lavender very much. After the young lady was unfortunately killed, Mr. Jia Gu did not change this habit and still placed lavender around the villa." Noel thought for a moment and replied.
"Then Noelle, take me to the room where the young lady was murdered."
"Okay, Ms. Lisa, come this way." Noel actively led the way for Lisa.
"Noel, is it okay for you to take me, an outsider, directly to the crime scene?" Lisa thought of something on the way and asked.
"Ms. Lisa, don't worry. I've talked to Mr. Kaguya about this." Noelle turned around and said with a smile, "He was very happy when he knew I had someone come to investigate. He also expressed his hope that we can find the truth as soon as possible."
"Really?" Lisa said softly with a strange smile on her face.
At the door of the crime scene, Lisa and her friends met Butler Jia Gu.
"Mr. Jia Gu!" Noel greeted the butler enthusiastically.
"It's Noel." The butler, Renzo Kotani, agreed, "Is this the friend you mentioned who is coming to investigate? Is she a detective?" He then turned the topic to the lady next to Noel.
"Hehe, I'm not a detective, just a librarian." Lisa smiled and denied the detective's guess, "Noelle is very grateful to Mr. Jia Gu for taking care of her these days, so I came to investigate."
"Yes, really." The butler looked a little unnatural. He came here just to see how the person Noelle brought to investigate was doing. Now that he knew it was not a detective, but just an ordinary librarian, he felt relieved and quickly turned around and left.
Lisa watched the butler leave and narrowed her eyes slightly - oh, it seems that this butler also knows his lady's secret.
"Noelle, does this Mr. Kaguya care about his lady?"
Noel answered without hesitation, "Of course, Mr. Jia Gu cares about the young lady very much. After the young lady left, Mr. Jia Gu also asked her to clean her room regularly while trying to keep it as original as possible." Then he opened the door of the room.
"Ms. Lisa, this is the crime scene. If you need any help, please let me know."
Seeing that Noelle hoped to help, Lisa thought for a moment and asked her to look around the corners of the room, under the cabinets, and other places to see if there were any clues.
Lisa walked to the window and checked the condition of the doors and windows of this closed room murder case.
At this moment, she noticed that one of the windows in the room was not sealed, but was glued on and could be easily removed - could it be that the case was not committed in a secret room, and the lady was not murdered but committed suicide?
