Conan wants to lie down but won't let him
Chapter 158 Do you like acting? Sorry, I don’t want to watch it anymore!
What answered Tanaka Kikue then was not a verbal response, but another sound of breaking glass.
"What's that sound?" Tanaka Kikue was stunned, and the tone of her question really made her owe her an Oscar.
"Ah..." A shrill scream broke the silence of the night.
"Sonoko!?" Conan exclaimed in his heart, and rushed out in a flash, running towards the direction where the sound came from.
As Conan rushed out quickly, he was followed by Takeki Doi and Xiaolan, who also followed Conan downstairs to check the situation.
At this moment, Conan, Xiaolan and Doi Takeki subconsciously forgot about Kikue Tanaka who was still staying upstairs.
Therefore, Tanaka Kikue had some ample time to process the evidence related to the agencies that had been set up. Actually, there was no other way. In the moment of such a thing happening, a human being couldn't analyze it coldly and calmly like a machine.
If you really calm down and analyze it, Tanaka Kikue's behavior is very suspicious. First of all, after being ambushed and almost shot by a crossbow arrow, she did not intend to hide.
Instead, he walked towards the direction of the arrow with a fierce look on his face, opened the window, and shouted provocatively! This was not something a normal person could do.
Secondly, the second arrow shot after Tanaka Kikue went out and loudly provoked was not shot upstairs, but shot into the bathroom downstairs.
This is also very unreasonable. Instead of attacking the people who provoked him, he attacked people on other floors. This is quite inconsistent with his decisive action and the previous strangulation of Mr. Hamano Toshiya, which created the image of an impossible crime.
It’s just that these things cannot be analyzed in a calm state, and it’s impossible for people to think so much when they are in a panic.
Tanaka Kikue's confidence that she would not be attacked again also came from the fact that she was the murderer, otherwise her reaction would have been to retreat, not to be aggressive.
However, by the time Conan and the others figured it out, and Kikue Tanaka had dealt with all the evidence, it was useless to have any suspicions at that time because there was no evidence.
When Conan and his friends rushed downstairs, they saw Sonoko collapsed on the ground in fear. I wonder if Sonoko herself felt that this scene was familiar?
If you look back at the history of Sonoko's famous screaming scenes, you will find that Sonoko should have adapted to these scenes.
The women's restroom at the skating rink, Kyogoku Makoto's hostel, and the bathroom in the mountain villa this time, all the screams were provided by Sonoko.
Conan, on the other hand, heard Sonoko's scream and rushed over here, but as he ran, Conan felt something was wrong.
It’s not because Conan found something wrong with Tanaka Kikue and Conan hasn’t reacted yet, but because when Conan was running on the way to the bathroom, a bad memory came to his mind.
"Oops!" Conan cried out inwardly, and slammed on the brakes at the bathroom door. However, Conan's sudden stop directly affected Doi Takeki behind him.
When Doi Takeshu heard Sonoko's scream, he was worried that something had happened to her, so he ran very fast and didn't even think about Conan's sudden brakes.
The final result was that Doi Takeki crashed into Conan and fell on him. It was because of this pressure that the accident happened.
Conan must have felt pain after being hit, but besides feeling the pain, he discovered that the person who was pressing on him, Doi Takeshu, was not as heavy as he appeared to be.
Doi Takeshu also quickly got up from Conan. He knew that Conan was not an ordinary child and he had tracked him several times.
Even with just this one contact, Conan had already started to doubt Doi Takeki. Kaito Kid was feeling miserable, as he couldn't figure out why Conan would stop.
However, Xiaolan behind was not running as fast. Faced with the sudden situation in front, she stopped calmly.
"Conan! Why did you stop suddenly?" Xiaolan was surprised by Conan's sudden pause, and Doi Takeshu also pressed forward.
"Uh... that, Xiaolan-sister! I saw the bathroom right in front of me, and I didn't dare to just barge in. If Fujiwara-sister saw me, I would be in trouble again!"
At this time, Conan no longer cared about the identity of Doi Takeshu. It was important to solve his own problem first.
All I can say is that after countless trials and tribulations, Conan has finally made progress. If he had just rushed in recklessly, Conan wouldn't have been able to explain himself even if he opened a hundred mouths.
At that time, if Fujiwara Hiroshi adds a few words and exaggerates the story, Conan will be finished. It will be like shit if the mud falls out of his crotch!
Wow, it seems like she had a stress reaction after being scared by Fujiwara Hiroshi. After hearing what Conan said, the corners of Xiaolan's mouth twitched. Look how scared Conan was!
Doi Takeshu also stared at Conan as if he had discovered a new continent. Is this still the fearless Conan in his impression?
You have to know that when Kaito Kidd was traveling, the police were fooled because this guy was chasing him relentlessly.
Now, such a person's attitude towards Fujiwara Hiroshi was as cowardly as a mouse meeting a cat, which really surprised Doi Takeshu!
After a while, everyone gathered around and Conan went into the bathroom with the crowd. He finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fujiwara Hiroshi inside has already calmed down Sonoko. After all, there is a murderer called Shadow Master watching in the dark. This time he shot the bathroom mirror, but who knows if he will shoot himself next time?
"So, someone wants to attack us from outside?" Huang Yize also came to the door, looked at the situation at the scene, and made a judgment.
"Are you kidding! You really pissed me off!" Fujiwara Hiroshi, who had secretly disposed of the clues upstairs, came to the bathroom door. With Ara Yoshinori's preparation, he took advantage of the situation and went berserk.
"Wait... Miss Tanaka!" When Xiaolan saw Kikue Tanaka rushing out of the door in a rage, she was worried about her safety and kept running after her.
I ran all the way to the woods, and there was a loud shout from the woods opposite Tanaka Kikue.
"I don't know who you are. Stop hiding like this. Come out now!"
After taking a look at Kikue Tanaka who was roaring helplessly over there, Naoko Kuroda made a discovery on the ground in the woods.
"Did you see that? There are footprints all over the woods!"
"So, is there really someone hiding in the woods?" Huang Yize said after taking a look at the footprints on the ground.
"No way?" Yuanzi was also frightened by their words, and she slipped and fell to the ground without paying attention.
When Kikue Tanaka saw that no one was paying attention to her, she pulled out the crossbow arrow that was originally stuck in the tree root.
And these are not ordinary crossbow arrows, but special arrows tied with coils, specially designed to match her magic skills.
Due to poor control of strength, she fell backwards due to inertia when pulling out the arrow, but Tanaka Kikue was also very lucky.
Before, he said he was cold and wanted to go back to his room to put on some clothes, and Conan sneezed in response. Now, after pulling out the arrow, he fell due to inertia, and then Sonoko fell on the snow and ice.
In this way, Kikue Tanaka's behavior seemed normal to everyone, without any problems, so much so that Conan and Takeki Doi were deceived.
It's a pity that Fujiwara Hiroshi is still present. He has seen enough of Tanaka Kikue's series of fancy moves tonight, and it seems that there are not many more tricks. Fujiwara Hiroshi is ready to end this farce.
After Kikue Tanaka stood up from the ground, Fujiwara Hiroshi confirmed that Kikue Tanaka should have put the special cross arrow into her leather boots, and Fujiwara Hiroshi knew that the time was ripe.
Coincidentally, at this moment, Sonoko fell to the ground and accidentally found the crossbow that Tanaka Kikue had deliberately thrown away when she ran outside first.
"Look! What is this!?"
"It's a crossbow. It must be the Shadow Mage who attacked us from the dark. There are arrows scattered around!" Huang Yize came to the conclusion after slapping his head.
"It's so dangerous here! We may be attacked by the Shadow Mage at any time." Kuroda Naoko also shrank her body and said with some fear.
"But if we just act like turtles and do nothing, I feel even more depressed and uncomfortable." Kikue Tanaka also expressed her opinion.
Since Conan had not participated in the incident before, he was completely unaware of what had happened before, and is still in the fog and unable to see the truth of the incident.
Doi Takeshu pounded the ground hard. He wondered whether he had stared at everyone or the murderer found an opportunity to strike. He began to question his previous judgment.
Originally, Doi Takeshu also suspected that the murderer was among their group, but judging from the subsequent developments, it seems that the murderer Shadow Mage is really outside of them and almost succeeded and killed again.
"I don't think so! You still think the so-called Shadow Mage is hiding in these woods, don't you?"
Fujiwara Hiroshi's voice was low-key and restrained, but what he said exploded in everyone's hearts, and they were all stunned with shock!
"What!?"
"what!?"
"what do you mean?"
"Do you think the murderer is among us?"
"How is this possible?"
For a moment, after a brief moment of surprise, voices of questioning arose one after another!
Because of a series of outrageous actions by Tanaka Kikue, everyone had already thought that the Shadow Mage was the murderer and was hiding in the woods to ambush them.
Now Fujiwara Hiroshi clearly told them that they were wrong and the murderer was right in front of them. After their instinctive rebuttal, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment!
Although he spoke very firmly and firmly, his actual actions still made me feel that what Fujiwara Hiroshi said was possible.
The most obvious manifestation is that everyone is looking at each other. If they lose their vigilance and the murderer suddenly attacks, they will be attacked by the murderer right away!
"Brother-in-law, do you mean that you already know who the murderer is?" It was Yuanzi who asked the most concerned question on behalf of everyone amidst the chatter of everyone.
"That's right! I already know it, so I said that it's time to end tonight's farce!" Fujiwara Hiroshi did not deny it and directly expressed his opinion.
“Well, I’m not like some showy detectives who like to slowly explain the murderer’s methods layer by layer and then expose the murderer’s true identity.
Actually, there's really no need for that. My approach is to express my opinion directly. Then the murderer is you—Ms. Tanaka Kikue!"
"What!?" Everyone looked at Kikue Tanaka in surprise. It seemed that no one suspected that she was the murderer of this case.
Only Conan was not surprised when Fujiwara Hiroshi pointed out that Tanaka Kikue was the murderer. Since Fujiwara Hiroshi said so, he must be sure and have evidence!
The only thing that made Conan unhappy was that Fujiwara Hiroshi specifically mentioned certain detectives, and it sounded like these certain detectives were talking about him!
So Conan rolled his eyes in displeasure to express his dissatisfaction, but this small detail was soon discovered by Fujiwara Hiroshi who had been staring at him.
"What? Conan, do you have any opinion on what I said?" Fujiwara Hiroshi's calm words almost scared Conan to pee.
"No, no, no... I have no objection!" Conan was so scared that he kept waving his hands to deny it. Saving his life was the most important thing. Even if he had a big objection in his heart, he couldn't express it at this time.
"That's good! Let's continue to talk about why Miss Tanaka is the murderer!" Fujiwara Hiroshi looked at Conan who was completely tamed by him and expressed great satisfaction.
"Hashidou Madai! Mr. Fujiwara, you said I was the murderer, but I was almost attacked by the murderer upstairs just now? Ran, Conan and Mr. Doita who were upstairs with me can help to testify to this!"
Kikue Tanaka didn't expect that someone would suspect her so soon. She thought that everything going on tonight should have gone smoothly and been successful, and there was no reason for her to be suspected like this.
"Yes, Brother Fujiwara! Just now, we saw a crossbow arrow shot through the glass on the second floor and hit the wall of Miss Tanaka's bedroom!
And not long after that, he heard a crossbow shattering the glass of the bathroom downstairs and heard Sonoko's screams.
All of this seems like a sneak attack from outside. How could Ms. Tanaka do this under everyone's noses?"
Xiaolan also helped Tanaka Kikue to explain. After all, this time Tanaka Kikue was attacked right under her nose. She felt that things happened too quickly just now, and Fujiwara Hiroshi might not know that Tanaka Kikue was attacked on the second floor.
That's why Fujiwara Hiroshi made a misjudgment. This was caused by information asymmetry. Fujiwara Hiroshi did not learn about the situation in time, so he came to the wrong conclusion.
"Oh!? Is that so? Then, Xiaolan, please describe the situation on the second floor for everyone!"
After listening to Xiaolan's words, Fujiwara Hiroshi did not directly refute her, but asked Xiaolan to describe what happened on the second floor first.
