Chapter 2431 Tiancheng Hotel (2077 I'm Coming!!!)

In the end, the first exploration of Tartarus was temporarily suspended due to the fog.

Ellie tried it too, and the mist was really evil, um... To be honest, it reminded her of some bad memories. After all, Fang Zhengke still remembered that when he saw such a fog in the world of black souls, after entering it, he would either be beaten to death by the boss or killed by the boss.

So now seeing this kind of mist, Ellie is also heartbroken, basically the same as seeing a treasure chest and going up to poke it first, it has become a psychological shadow.

The exploration of the movie time has come to an end, and the next thing Ellie has to do is to continue to investigate the late-night TV murder case.

And Yukina can't help much, she directly turned into a coffin in the movie time, when Ellie asked her, Yukina said that she didn't feel anything, as if she blinked and closed her eyes, and then saw love Li and the others reappeared, and nothing happened in the middle——In this case, Ai Li naturally would not take Xuecai to explore Shadow Time again, and let her go back and stand by.

Although Yukina was a little dissatisfied, she couldn't even enter the shadow time, so she basically had no fighting power. Therefore, although she was dissatisfied, Yukina had to accept Ellie's order and obediently returned to the No. 9 artificial island to protect Nagisa They are gone.

Ellie turned around and began to re-investigate the entire case.

Although she had already obtained information from the Iwatodai branch and the police station, Ellie still believed in her own investigation results. After all, it was not in vain that Fang Zheng stayed in the world of Conan for so long.

However, according to Ai Li's one-day investigation, the three murdered people seemed to have been under heavy pressure before they died. Getting married and having children is an obvious third-party intervention, so both parties have been interfered and reported by the media.

As for the second victim, Xiaoxi Zaoji, the situation is a bit special. She is the daughter of the owner of a store in the shopping street on the twelfth artificial island. "Such a large supermarket chain, so the business of the shopping street has also been affected.

Therefore, the relationship between the shopping street and the large supermarkets has not been very good. Under such circumstances, Konishi Zaki, who was born in the shopping street, chose to work in a large supermarket, and it seemed that he had a relationship with the owner's son of that large supermarket. The relationship was ambiguous, so many people accused her of betraying her family and the shopping street, so during this period of time, Xiao Xi early Ji was also criticized, and her disappearance was even considered to be because she could not bear the family. He chose to run away from home because of his responsibilities with neighbors.

Strictly speaking, there is no close connection between the three. The only connection between Xiaoxi Zaoji and the hostess is that she was interviewed by the female reporter and appeared on TV, but that's all. The two sides have no personal contacts, and there is no special relationship.

What has actually happened?

Walking on the shopping street, Ellie was also thinking while flipping through the records in her hand.

What the dead have in common is that they were on the cusp of the crisis, and the surrounding relationship was not very harmonious during the time before they died. The family and neighbors spurn... If that's the case, why not fake it as a suicide, and insist on making such a serial murder?

Could it be that these three people walked into Tartarus by accident? According to Mitsuru Kirijo, there are indeed some people who have the adaptability to the shadow time, but most of them have no combat effectiveness. They wander in the shadow time and will only be discovered by the shadow, and then their spirits will be swallowed up and become The living dead will not become what they are now.

Forget it, if you can't figure it out, don't think about it for now, let's go to the next step to investigate first.

Thinking of this, Ellie walked up the slope in front of her.

According to the data, before the hostess and the director died, they all stayed in the Tiancheng Hotel... Then my next goal is the Tiancheng Hotel.

Tiancheng Hotel is a hot spring hotel full of ancient style. When Ellie walked up the slope and came to the door of Tiancheng Hotel, there were quite a few people around the door. But they are not guests, just looking at the microphones and cameras with long guns and short guns, it can be seen that these guys should be reporters.

Speaking of which, the incident on the artificial island is indeed newsworthy.

Surrounded by the reporters was a girl with long black hair who looked like Yamato Nadeko. She was wearing a pink kimono and looked quite quiet. At this moment, the reporters surrounded her and asked various questions.

"She's a hotel proprietress despite being a high school girl."

"No, that... I'm just substituting for my mother..."

"The kimono looks so sexy!"

"Hey?"

"Anchor Yamano seemed to have lived in the Fushang Hotel before he died, and Director Tanaka too... It is rumored that there is a curse in this hot spring hotel, is it like this?"

"No, I... that..."

"Cough cough."

Hearing this, Ellie stepped forward, coughed lightly, and looked at everyone. Seeing her appear, those reporters were taken aback.

"Silver... a witch?"

"Miss Allie? Why are you here..."

"I am currently in charge of the investigation of the serial killings that occurred on the twelfth artificial island."

Ellie glanced at the reporter in front of her.

"You can go."

"Ah... yes..."

Noticing Ellie's cold gaze, those reporters immediately put away their original attitudes, and behaved like a mouse seeing a cat—they didn't dare to provoke the Fourth Primogenitor, Ellie never liked the media very much Not only does she not like it, but she is also capable enough to deal with those journalists and media who dare to talk nonsense. At the beginning, there were media and reporters who did not have eyes to fight against Ellie. However, after they paid the double price of blood and money Well, these media finally understood their status, and they didn't dare to BB in front of Ai Li anymore.

Seeing those reporters leaving in a hurry, the girl in kimono who had been besieged was also relieved, and thanked Ellie softly.

"Thank you………"

"You're welcome, I've never liked the media, they are a bunch of idiots who like to catch rumors."

Ellie waved her hand, then took out the license from her arms.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Xiao Aili, an attacking magician. I am here to investigate the serial murders on the twelfth artificial island. I know that the anchor of Yamano and Director Tanaka once lived in Tiancheng Hotel for a while, so I would like to ask Some details about you..."

From the mouth of this girl named Amagi Yukiko, Ellie did not ask much useful information. According to her, the mountain anchor came to the hotel after the scandal was exposed. Although Amagi Yukiko did not say much, Ellie probably It can also be guessed that she is avoiding the "hunting" of her colleagues. And Amagi Yukiko's statement also proved Ellie's guess. After coming to Amagi Hotel, she almost never went out, just stayed in the room. Amagi Yukiko met her several times. At that time, she was very tired and worried. But there were no signs of life-threatening threats.

Even on the night before Shanye's disappearance, Xuezi and the hotel staff didn't notice anything unusual. They didn't find out that she was not in the room until the next morning when they went to ask Shanye for dinner. At that time, everyone just thought that Shanye was in the room I'm bored staying here, I plan to go out to get some air...

Yukiko Amashiro's answer was basically the same as the testimonies collected by the police, and she herself seemed very calm. As for Director Tanaka's situation, Yukiko Yamashiro was not that familiar with it, so she didn't provide any valuable information. In the end, Ellie didn't collect any useful information at the Tiancheng Hotel, and returned without success.

Back at the Iwatodai branch, at twenty-four o'clock, Ellie entered the shadow time, and then led the team to Tartarus again. As before, there was still a fog in the depths of the second floor, which did not dissipate at all. So in desperation, Ellie had to leave the tower, and returned to the Iwatodai branch before the shadow time ended.

Almost not long after everyone entered the door, the shadow time also ended, and immediately followed by the sound of "crash la la la", the torrential rain poured down.

Ellie looked at the raindrops outside through the window, then frowned slightly.

"I remember the legend of late-night TV. It seems to say that the TV that is not turned on on a rainy night will automatically turn on and play the program?"

"That's right."

"Then let's see."

Ellie sat on the sofa in the living room, looking at the dark TV in front of her.

"Let's see if there will be any reaction on that late-night TV tonight."

Hearing Ellie's words, the others also looked at each other, then sat down and stared quietly at the dark TV in front of them.

Time passed by every minute and every second.

I don't know how long it took, when most of the people were already sleepy and about to take a nap, suddenly, with the sound of "噗味", the originally pitch-black TV screen suddenly lit up.

"Yes!"

Seeing this scene, Yue Yu who was about to fall asleep suddenly called out from Jia Li, while the others cheered up and looked at the TV in front of them. They can be sure that the TV is definitely off now, not on at all. But now the TV screen is really lit up...

At first, there was only a single snowflake on the TV screen, but after a while, the image on the screen gradually became clearer, a bit similar to the feeling of seeing flowers through fog. Under everyone's gaze, a figure in kimono appeared from the TV. She seemed to be avoiding something, ran desperately, and then... just disappeared into the mist.

Then, the picture on the screen disappeared again, and the entire TV became pitch black again.

"That's late night TV?"

"Who's in there?"

Looking at the picture in front of them, everyone immediately chattered into discussions, while Ellie squinted her eyes and stared at the TV screen.

For some reason, she always felt that the figure inside looked familiar...
