Conan: Goodbye, Brewery, I'm running away

Chapter 379: Running Towards Dusk 26

Hearing what Akikawa Sarina said, Toyama Kazuha looked at her and then at herself, then stood obediently beside Akikawa Sarina, just like a child being protected by an adult.

Just as everyone was watching the detectives investigating with different thoughts in their minds, Mao Lilan and Butler Kitajima hurried back.

Seeing the older housekeeper Kitajima panting, Mao Lilan said to Akikawa Sarana, "Sister Akikawa, the three landline telephones in the villa for external communication have been cut off."

Hearing this, before Akikawa Sarina could say anything, Toyama Kazuha subconsciously grabbed Akikawa Sarina's sleeve. The story I just heard was like this, the mountain was blocked by heavy snow and everyone was trapped in the villa, there were strange murder cases, and ghosts appeared from time to time...

According to the plot of the story, what happened next was that the only passage was destroyed.

Akikawa Sarana didn't think of any story, she made a judgment based on common sense. She quickly walked to the window on the fourth floor where she could see the winding mountain road outside.

However, before she could reach the window, everyone heard a huge explosion.

Hearing this voice, Akikawa Sarina stopped her steps. She turned her back to everyone with an unpleasant look on her face. They were now completely trapped on the mountain.

[Hoho, where have you been?] Akikawa Sarana was communicating with the system through her mind.

[I have left Tokyo and just got on the highway. ]

[We have been physically cut off from all external communications. When you arrive, go to Gunma Prefecture to report the incident. Remember to go to Gunma, not Nagano.]

Natsuho Shinno glanced at the signpost on the highway and said, "I know, Sarina, you guys should be careful."

【Well, you have to be careful too. 】

While Akikawa Sarana was contacting the system, the others had already passed her and rushed to the window, but because of the wind and snow, no one could tell what the sound was.

The detectives also heard what Mouri Ran had just said to Akikawa Sarana, and when they came out of the bathroom, they also heard a loud explosion.

As detectives, they could naturally tell what the sound was, and several of them looked even uglier.

Toru Amuro was one step slower than everyone else and stood beside Akikawa Sarina, who was standing still and not moving forward. The two of them looked at each other.

After the two exchanged information, Amuro Toru said, "It seems that someone deliberately wants to trap us on the mountain. It's a real-life version of Snowstorm Mountain Villa."

He did not deliberately lower his voice, and although the people present were panicked, they all heard what he said.

Everyone looked back suddenly. Although they came from all walks of life, most of them had read some classic works and had some interest in reasoning.

Sanyuuteiju's voice trembled slightly, "What do you mean by that, Mr. Amuro?"

"It means that the murderer is among us, whether it's the murderer who killed Mr. Yokoyama or the one who cut all the phone lines and may even blow up the highway to prevent us from communicating with the outside world."

Hattori Heiji turned the baseball cap on his head while speaking, "Even the sudden loss of signal on our cell phones might be caused by that person."

"Moreover, the other party may not only want to kill Mr. Yokoyama," Conan added.

Kogoro Mouri looked at everyone carefully and after excluding a few familiar people, he focused on the people he had just met. Compared to the people he was familiar with, he thought the murderer should be among these strangers.

"Anyway, let's go and see what's going on at the explosion site. If the conditions on the mountain road aren't what we thought, then we can go down the mountain and call the police."

"Who's going?" Nomura Kento, who looked unhappy, asked.

"We have just received confirmation from Dr. Ochi that we are almost certain that Mr. Yokoyama died within the hour, which means after 8:30. Anyone with an alibi for this time can go."

Maori Kogoro said as he focused his attention on the two teams outside the villa at this time, "Xiaolan, your team has been outside during this time, right?"

Mao Lilan nodded quickly, "Yes, the four of us have never been separated."

"Mr. Amuro and Ms. Akikawa both have alibis."

Butler Kitajima said to Maori Kogoro: "According to the game settings, there are surveillance cameras in the tower where the two of them went. I saw the time they entered and left the tower."

Maori Kogoro made the final decision, "Then you go, Amuro, and the rest of us will stay in the villa and wait for news."

Conan raised his hand, "I'm with Amuro-nii."

Akikawa Sarana glanced at everyone and said, "I'll come too."

Just when the others said they wanted to go together, Maori Kogoro glanced at Conan casually, and then said, "That's it, everyone else please don't leave the villa for the time being, because we don't know if the criminal will have another target, and who the criminal's next target will be? So before that, staying together is the only feasible way to ensure everyone's safety."

After saying this, Maori Kogoro looked at the doctor, Eri Ochi, and the photographer, Miyuutei, and said, "Ms. Ochi, can you continue to help with some simple tests?"

"No problem." Ochi Eri nodded.

"Then Mr. Sanyou will be in charge of taking photos of the scene with the camera."

Sanyuuteiju swallowed and made an OK gesture to Maori Kogoro, "Okay, Mr. Maori."

After assigning the tasks, Maori Kogoro looked at Hattori Heiji again, "Little kid from Osaka, continue the investigation with me."

Hattori Heiji raised his hand and pressed down the brim of his hat, with a confident look in his eyes, "Okay, uncle."

After the action tasks were divided, no one else expressed any dissatisfaction because of what Kogoro Mori had said before. After all, what Kogoro Mori said was true, and they were still afraid of death.

At this time, the butler Bei Dao spoke up, "But please don't be too scared. There is plenty of food stored in the villa, enough for us to eat for half a month. And after the wind and snow stop, someone will come to pick us up. If we really can't contact the outside world, they will find out that something happened here."

Hearing that there was enough food, everyone relaxed a little, so now all they had to do was catch the criminal.

Among them there are three detectives, including the famous detective Mouri Kogoro. When people think of Mouri Kogoro's crime-solving rate, only four words come to their mind: it's a sure thing!
