Conan went to the stone tower where the statue of Green Shura belonged. The old vermilion wooden door was not closed tightly, leaving a gap as wide as an adult's palm. The wooden peg responsible for locking the door was thrown on the ground casually. Saw bloodstains on the ground.

Conan's heart sank and he pushed open the door.Another man belonging to the Jiyang Conglomerate was lying in front of the ghost statue in the stone pagoda. Someone had cut a big mouth on his neck with a sharp knife, and blood flowed from the ghost statue to the gate of the stone pagoda.

Conan walked over to sniff, felt the pulse in the man's hand for a moment and said, "Dead."

Before he had time to look at the dead, Conan turned around and ran to the stone pagoda of Qingmian Shura and pushed open the pagoda door. As soon as Conan stepped in, he felt the wetness under his feet.

Is it blood too?

Conan took the watch and approached the person who fell on the floor, and also tested his breath and pulse.

His expression was solemn.

"This one is also dead. Why is he suddenly so anxious to kill three people in one night?"

Conan held up his watch and exited the stone tower. He was immersed in the thoughts of solving the case, but he didn't realize that Tsuna and the others didn't follow.

He came to the electric box by himself and opened it on tiptoe. Conan found that the wiring of Wuyun Temple was very strange. The wiring of the light and the wiring of the air conditioner were divided into two main gates. Pull it down, and the circuit of the air conditioner is still running.

Conan touched the collector box on tiptoe, squinted his eyes looking at the water stains on his hands and snorted coldly: "Ice?"

It wasn’t Conan who mocked him. Since he became smaller, ice cubes would appear every now and then. I don’t know if this year’s murderers don’t like to use their brains. Ice cubes are said to be able to form Undocumented murder is fine, but it is also valid to say that it is the best evidence in a case to point to the murderer.

Looking up at the main gate that opened and closed, Conan felt more and more strange while complaining about the ice cubes.Obviously he has found the murderer, but he still feels that the fog before his eyes is still... No, it should be said that since he found the murderer, the fog in front of his eyes has become thicker.

What is the murderer's motive?

Why did he have to follow the five evil spirits of Wuyun Temple to kill people?

Why is the number of kills with weapons corresponding to each evil spirit different?

Why were two people killed by the red-faced Shura's hatchet-like weapon on the first night?

Today is the third day, why did the murderer change the previous day's rule of killing with one weapon and kill three people in one go?

What happened to make him suddenly change his original plan and become irritable?

Conan turned on the main switch of the light circuit, and soon, all the lights in the temple that were turned on were turned on again.Conan turned off the small light on his watch and prepared to go back to the second floor of the side hall.

Conan, who came to the stairs, finally remembered about Maeda Yu. He turned his face and walked towards the place where Maeda Yu's bedroom was located.

The staff dormitory is not very far from the side hall where the guests live. Conan soon arrived at the staff dormitory, and the man he met at the bottom of the side hall was also waiting at the door of the staff dormitory.

"Huh? Little brother? What about those people who were with you before?"

The man looked behind Conan, but did not see the figures of the four teenagers.

Conan raised his head and said with a smile: "Brother Gang and the others are going back to the room first, I was asked by Uncle Mori to come over and take care of Mr. Maeda Yu."

Man: "I see, then you come with me."

Conan followed the man to the door of Maeda Yu's room, and there was a bright yellow light shining through the paper window on the wooden door.

"Light on, is Maeda awake?"

The man looked suspiciously at the wooden door that cast the light, knocked on the door and shouted, "Hey, Maeda! Are you awake?"

After waiting for a while, the door was opened, and Maeda Yu's face appeared behind the door: "It's Brother Hai."

Conan followed the man and looked at Maeda Yu carefully. It seemed that Maeda Yu had just taken a shower. The moisture on his body in pajamas was not completely dry. The strong scent of shampoo was carried by the air-conditioning in the room after he opened the door. Conan was suddenly rushed by the smell and sneezed hugely.

It was only then that Maeda Yu found out that Conan was blocked by a man, because Conan had been following Mori Kogoro's investigations back and forth for the past few days, and he was also impressed by this kid with glasses: "I remember you are Mori A child of Mr. Kogoro's family?"

Conan nodded: "Yes. I met Uncle Hai on the road before, and he said that you are sick, Uncle Maeda, so I came to see you."

"Thank you, little brother."

Maeda Yu smiled unnaturally, stepped aside and said, "It's hot outside, come in and talk."

"Good~"

Conan yelled and ran into Maeda Yu's room, his eyes quickly swept around Maeda Yu's room, and then sat obediently on the tatami.

The man who was called Hai Ge by Maeda Yu also walked in, sat down in the room familiarly, poured a cup of tea and asked, "Maeda, are you feeling better? If you still have a fever, turn off the air conditioner and sweat a little." It will make you more comfortable."

"Thank you Brother Hai, I'm much better."

Maeda Yu raised his head and patted his forehead and said with a smile, "I don't feel dizzy when I wake up after sleeping, and the fever seems to have subsided."

Conan suddenly asked: "Uncle Maeda, aren't you tired of doing two jobs by yourself?"

"..."

Conan's sudden interjection made Maeda Yu choke unexpectedly, he paused and said: "Fortunately, little brother, you are a child of Mr. Mori's family, so you should know about my family's situation. My parents went through a crisis more than 20 years ago. After a car accident, I lay in bed and turned into a vegetative state. I sold everything at home and managed to survive for more than ten years. But the cost of being in a vegetative state is too high. To keep up with the increasing medical expenses every year, so I keep working part-time to make money."

Maeda Yu seemed to have thought of something, and the expression on his face was not good: "It's also thanks to the previous boss of the Jiyang Zaibatsu who heard about me, he gave me this job with a much higher salary than the average salary. The pressure can be less, otherwise I really have nothing to do."

Conan: "Uncle Maeda, I heard that your Miyazaki local dishes are very good. Is your hometown here in Miyazaki?"

"...Ah, yes." Maeda Yu replied.

Conan then asked again: "Then do you know who the owner of Wuyun Temple was more than 20 years ago?"

"..."

Maeda Yu's face changed suddenly, and he himself found that his expression was not right. He tried to reverse this expression and wanted to laugh, but it was even more inappropriate: "I... I don't know."

"Eh? The legend of Wuyun Temple is so famous, and Mr. Kora Yasunaga said that its original owner was a declining family. No matter how a family falls here in Miyazaki, it will definitely be famous." Conan ignored Maeda Yu's ugly His face said to himself.

"...I don't know." Maeda Yu spat out this sentence stiffly and then stopped talking.

The atmosphere was deadlocked for a while.

Conan found that he could no longer pry words out of Maeda Yu's mouth, so he stood up and pretended to be shy and said: "Uncle Maeda, I want to go to the toilet..."

"The toilet is here." Maeda Yu led Conan to the toilet in the bathroom.

When Conan passed the bathroom, he saw the clothes soaked in the sink by Maeda bath. The smell of shampoo and laundry detergent was mixed, and it hadn't been cleaned until now.

Conan sat in the toilet and took out his mobile phone and pressed the mute button. After waiting for a while, he pressed the flush button and pretended to come out of the toilet, and walked to the sink on his own.

When Maeda Yu watched Conan walking towards the washbasin, his heart skipped a beat. Before he could think about anything, he rushed over and stopped in front of Conan: "What are you doing?!"

"Uncle Maeda, I need to wash my hands after going to the toilet."

Conan's glasses reflected bright white light under the bathroom light, he lowered his head and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Maeda, what's wrong with you?"

"..."

It was only then that Maeda Yu realized that his reaction seemed to be too strong. He moved away embarrassingly, and asked Conan to go to the sink: "I'm sorry, little brother, I may still be a little dizzy, don't take it to heart."

"……I know."

Conan turned his back to Maeda Yu's expressionless face, and the answer in his mouth was still full of innocence: "I used to always do things that I wouldn't normally do when I had a fever."

"Well... well."

Maeda Yu looked at Conan with his back turned to him, his eyes were fierce for a moment, his fingers moved slightly, he wanted to hold something, but in the end he still didn't do anything.

Conan has been paying attention to Maeda Yu's movements through the mirror. When Maeda Yu's eyes showed a fierce look, he put his hand on the anesthesia watch on his wrist to be vigilant.Maeda Yu didn't do anything in the end, and Conan finally finished washing his hands, turned around and said with a smile, "I've finished washing. Uncle Maeda, it's too late, I'm sleepy, I'm going back to sleep, good night."

"OK, good night."

Maeda Yu looked at Conan with complicated eyes, and asked, "Do you need me to see you off?"

Conan shook his head when he heard the words: "No need, Uncle Maeda, you are still sick, you should go to bed early."

"kindness."

Leaving Maeda Yu's dormitory, Conan followed the stone road back to the side hall where the guest lived.

Conan lived with Kogoro Mori, so when Conan returned to the room, he saw Kogoro Mori snoring lying on the table as soon as he entered the room, and he was in a complicated mood.

He drank a few extra bottles of wine during the meal before, and Mori Kogoro was already too drunk to wake up before the lights were turned off.

But now is also the time to expose the killer.

Thinking about it, Conan fiddled with Mori Kogoro's body again to make him sit, then ran out and called everyone to Mori Kogoro's room.

Conan hid behind Mori Kogoro, adjusted his voice changer, and started to solve the case this time: "I think everyone has experienced the lights out just now, right? In the short darkness just now, I found the murderer in the past three days. murderer of the five dead."

All the people huddled in Kogoro Mori's room and discussed: "Mr. Mori, who is that inhumane murderer?!"

"Tell us, we're going to arrest him!"

"Wait! Killed five people? How could there be five people? Mr. Maori, what the hell is going on?!"

Behind Kogoro Mori, Conan looked at Maeda Yu who was standing behind the crowd with a pale face, and said coldly, "Yes, including today, the murderer killed a total of five people."

"Two people died on the first day, one person died on the second day, and two people died on the third day."

Conan paused and continued, "Strange, isn't it? Mr. Maeda Yu, you should have killed three people tonight, why did you kill two people?"

"what?!"

Everyone looked at Maeda Yu standing behind the crowd in surprise, and the people who were close to him all avoided him and let him out: "Maeda Yu?! Who is this?"

"The servant in charge of cleaning."

"No, I didn't kill anyone!"

Maeda Yu frantically avoided everyone's eyes, and retorted loudly: "Mr. Mori, what are you talking about?! What do you mean I'm weird?"

"Since you said that, let me start with the two murders on the first night..."

"On the first night, the murderer took a machete from the hand of the red-faced Shura statue in the main hall, and lured Kora Yasushi and Takeshita Yousuke into the evil ghost stone tower, and killed them both.

The next day, the murderer took the mace of the yellow-faced Shura statue, led the deceased into the stone pagoda of the yellow-faced ghost, and killed him.

On the third day, which is today, the murderer first used Green Shura's sickle and Qing Shura's ax to kill two dead people in the ghost stone tower before the power outage.Later, because his final target—Mr. Ishida Tsubasa was always in the side hall, he couldn't lure Mr. Ishida Tsubasa out of the side hall.So, he designed the main light switch to be closed at the right time, causing the lights to turn off suddenly. Then, when everyone was caught off guard, the murderer, who had already been prepared at the stairs, rushed to his last place with the steel fork of the blue-faced Shura. The target is Mr. Ishida Tsubasa's room, and he wants to kill him. "

"But what the murderer didn't expect was that Mr. Ishida Tsubasa's screams attracted Conan and the others. Hearing the footsteps, the murderer fled the scene before checking whether Mr. Ishida Tsubasa was dead. So, Mr. Ishida Tsubasa was lucky enough to escape After a catastrophe, I was able to escape under your hands."

"Mr. Mori, what are you talking about! Is there any evidence for you to say that I am the murderer?!" Maeda Yu shouted in panic as his face became paler with Mori Kogoro's reasoning.

"Evidence? The evidence is a piece of clothing in your room that you washed in water!"

Conan held the voice changer and said loudly: "Although you try to wash off the blood, the laundry detergent cannot wash off the domino reaction. Just wait for the police to go up the mountain to inspect your clothes, and everything will be clear!"

"!!!"

Maeda Yu knelt on the ground with a dazed expression and said, "You don't have to wait for the police. I admit that I killed them. Ishida Tsubasa was lucky if he didn't die. It seems that my revenge can only end here."

"..."

On the other side, in Ishida Tsubasa's room.

Ishida Tsubasa, whose face was as white as paper due to excessive blood loss, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the uninvited guest in his room.

"You used them."

Ishida Tsubasa looked at the visitor weakly, and said with a wry smile, "I didn't expect you to be the one who sent me on my way in the end——Uncle Gao Liang Yasuyoshi."
