Conan: No, why aren't you following the script?

However, despite saying that, Senma Kyouyo couldn't tell all these things to the detectives in front of her all at once.

So, amidst Ikumi Gunta's repeated urgings, she could only reluctantly follow them to the door of Harufumi Mogi's room on the second floor.

However, the overwhelmed Chima Kazuyo was unaware of this.

As she walked ahead with Ikumi Gunta and Saguru Hakuba, the three people secretly following behind—Kaito Kid, Conan, and Ran—had already begun to suspect them.

"Have you noticed? It seems like Hakuba and Ikumi Yata have been getting closer and closer since just now... Could there be something going on between them?"

"It doesn't seem like it. Hakuba-kun and Gunda-san... to me, they don't seem like a couple, do they?"

"Nonsense, I wasn't talking about that kind of relationship. What I meant was... Anyway, Bai Ma is a friend of mine, but this is the first time I've ever seen him so close to a girl. You don't know him, so you have no idea how arrogant he is. In his eyes, women are absolutely not comparable to cases!"

Kid mysteriously corrected Ran, then turned to Conan, "Great Detective, what do you think? Do you think these two have reached some kind of agreement in private?"

"Do you think that's possible?"

Conan looked at Kid with an expression as if he were looking at an idiot. "How much time has it been? What could those two possibly come up with? Don't forget, Hakuba Saguru's father is the Superintendent General of the Metropolitan Police Department. You can't possibly bribe someone like that. Besides that... do you think Ikumi Gunta could offer him anything that would tempt him? Unless those two already know each other and have common interests, I just can't understand the logic behind this."

"Huh? What did you just say?!"

Kid's eyes suddenly lit up, and he grabbed Conan's shoulder. "That's right, Ikumi Gunta used to be a forensic pathologist, and Hakuba is the son of a police officer. Maybe they know each other!"

"Come on, can you stop joking?" Conan said expressionlessly, shaking off Kid's hand. "Hakuba Saguru was studying in England until this year. Didn't you tell me that? Miss Gunda quit her job as a forensic pathologist three years ago. The two of them have never crossed paths. Instead of worrying about these things, I think you should pay attention to Senma Kazuyo."

"Old Woman Qianjian? What's wrong with her now?"

"I can't really explain it either, but Chima Kazuyo's reaction just now was really strange, as if... she really knew something. I think even if she's not the murderer in this case, she's at least someone who knows something. If we want to continue investigating, starting with her would be a good option."

Seeing Conan Edogawa's confident demeanor, Kid's heart skipped a beat.

Because he remembered that, just over an hour ago, he was still on the phone with Mr. Kitagawa...

Kitagawa Isao had warned him to be wary of Senma Kōdai.

"With so many detectives present, why was it that only her car broke down halfway, requiring you to bring her up? Do you really believe such a coincidence? Considering that your cars were all destroyed in the explosion, there's only one truth: Chima Kazuyo knew from the beginning that the parking lot of the Twilight Mansion would explode, which is why she left her car halfway up the mountain to avoid being affected..."

A deeper explanation is that she likely arrived at Twilight Mansion early in the morning, planted the explosives, and made numerous preparations and traps. Her subsequent feigned car breakdown halfway up the mountain was to create the illusion that she had just arrived and hadn't yet entered the mansion!

It must be said that compared to Conan Edogawa's unfounded speculation, Isao Kitagawa's conjecture was more convincing to Kid.

After thinking for a moment, he translated those words into his own words and described them to Conan again.

Almost instantly, Conan's eyes lit up.

"I didn't realize you had such a talent for deduction, Kid! If what you're saying is true, it does seem to make sense... Hmm, anyway, Chima Kazuyo is a strong suspect. She definitely knows something. We need to find her and get some information from her later!"

Seeing him like this, Kidd hesitated.

Before he could say anything, the group of people had already arrived at the door of Mogi Harufumi's room.

Looking at the tightly closed door, Kidd's eyes twitched twice, and he stopped speaking...

……

"Mr. Mogi, Mr. Mogi, are you in your room? Don't sleep, something terrible has happened."

Ikumi Gunda gently knocked on the door, her tone as elegant and alluring as ever.

However, Harufumi Mogi in the room did not respond at all, and no matter how much she knocked, there was no reply.

Ikumi Gunda wasn't surprised at all by this.

After knocking on the door a few more times, she clapped her hands and decisively turned to look at the maid, Ishihara Ami:

"Ms. Ishihara, do you have the keys to these rooms?"

When suddenly called out, Ami Ishihara was taken aback for a moment, then quickly shook her head: "Ms. Gunda, how could I possibly have keys to these rooms? I'm just someone who came here to work. Even if there were spare keys in the rooms, they wouldn't be handed to me."

"Heh, I knew this would happen..." Ikumi Gunta sneered upon hearing this, "But fortunately, the layout of the rooms in the Twilight Mansion is relatively simple, and the distance between the balconies isn't too far. Since Mr. Mogi is unwilling to open the door, then we'll just go from the balcony..."

Gunda Ikumi had only spoken half of her sentence when she was about to suggest breaking through from the balcony.

A loud bang suddenly came from the backyard of the Dusk Mansion.

The detectives were startled by the sound.

After they came to their senses, they exchanged a glance, and a terrifying thought immediately surfaced in their minds...

After all, just a few hours ago, they had witnessed an explosion. How could they not make connections when they heard similar sounds?

Of the group, Conan was, as usual, the first to react, followed by Kaito Kid, Saguru Hakuba, and others...

Chima Kazuyo ran at the very back, pulling along a shocked Ishihara Ami as she ran, closely following behind Gunda Ikumi and Ran.

"Honestly, you could at least have waited for me! Making an old person run around like this... You really have no respect for the elderly!"
