Chapter 237 Really Powerful Players Can Put Two Puzzle Pieces Together

Conan lay on the table next to Nobushige, watching with great interest.

That's right, compared to any magic, this kind of thing is more familiar to him and fascinates him more.

Although Conan is a bit confused as to why Mr. Asano would consider things from the perspective of a criminal, but...well, never mind him, he can't understand that man's thoughts anyway, it's not just for a day or two, just get used to it.

But when it comes to crime and reasoning, Conan, who is extremely quick-thinking, quickly noticed the problem. He questioned: "But Brother Asano, ordinary ropes can't bear the weight of a person, right? What's more, you are using a crossbow." , probably as soon as they put it on, either the rope broke or the crossbow bolt broke?"

"Really?" Nobuhiro had a smile in his eyes and looked at Tanaka Kikue, whose shoulders were shaking next to him. "Although it sounds incredible, if it is actually implemented, it might be unexpectedly useful."

"Actual operation..." Conan thought seriously for a moment, and then he suddenly realized, "Ah, I remembered, we have actually encountered crimes before that had very strange criminal methods and a lot of luck, but they It all worked.”

Conan deeply understands the difference between talking on paper and actual operation. If many things have not been tried personally, never say it is impossible.

Just like this time, it is obviously a very incredible method, but maybe someone can really do it?

Thinking like this, Conan suddenly said to Nobumangi with great interest: "Why don't we give it a try?"

"No!!"

Tanaka Kikue's loud stop startled everyone. However, after the anxious roar came to an end, Xinfan raised the corners of his mouth.

This made Conan, who had been paying attention to him, feel very strange. He always felt that there were many things in that smile.

Could it be that Mr. Asano's keen insight had already smelled the smell of crime before he did?

Although these people know each other because of their hobbies, and they come to such a remote place to gather, it is somewhat in line with the conditions for homicides in the past. But Conan feels that their relationship is pretty good, and they don’t seem to be the kind of characters who “die” easily.

If you insist on talking about it, the grudge between the Shadow Mage and the Escape King may be the only information Conan has now.

Plus the weirdness of the Doi Tucker tree...

"What's wrong?" Naoko Kuroda asked Tanaka Kikue with concern.

Tanaka Kikue's face was pale, her eyes were staring at Asano Nobushige, and her hands were clenched so hard that her nails left deep marks on her palms.

Several other people were so frightened by her appearance that they felt guilty, but Aragi comforted her in a gentle tone: "Okay, okay, if you don't want to, we won't try. After all, Asano is nowhere to be found in the villa for a while. The kind of long rope you want, not to mention measuring the distance from the villa to nearby trees.”

Tanaka Kikue bit her lower lip, her expression tangled with pain.

How can there be such a coincidence in the world?

Asano Nobushige must have understood her plan and reminded her in this way.

But how did he find out? !

Seeing that Tanaka Kikue's state was always not right, Kuroda Naoko and Hamano Riya looked at each other worriedly, and both saw helplessness and bewilderment in the other's eyes.

"Kikune." Hamano Toshiya put his arm around Tanaka Kikue's shoulders.

Suddenly everyone around them was shocked by this scene, except Nobuhiro who already knew about the relationship between the two.

The affectionate name made Tanaka Kikue turn around slightly, and she looked up at Hamano Toshiya.

The young man's eyes were full of worry and distress, but such deep affection only made her feel sick at the moment.

Tanaka Kikue pushed Hamano Toshiya away silently.

Hamano Lee was also stunned, watching the woman calmly but indifferently say, "I'm fine, I'm just a little uncomfortable, so I'll excuse you.", and then turned around and walked upstairs.

He wanted to reach out to hold him back, but he thought of Tanaka Kikue's cold action of pushing him away just now, and he didn't know if it was appropriate to do so now. He could only stare at the retreating figure of Tanaka Kikue with a complicated expression, silently in a daze.

The threatening letter received by Suzuki Sonoko, the most cherished thing, the grudge between the Shadow Mage and the Escape King, the abnormality of the Doi Tucker tree, and the unsaid words of Tanaka Kikune... Various clues fell in Conan's eyes, and he felt like he was A puzzle called the truth has been put together.

"Mr. Asano," Conan whispered in Nobushige's ear, "I think Miss Tanaka is in danger now. Maybe she is the person targeted by the murderer. We must stop the murderer!"

Xinfan glanced at him lightly: "So?"

"So we must follow Kikue Tanaka, we can't let her be alone!" Conan's expression was serious but a little bit excited. He immediately jumped off the chair and ran in the direction of Tanaka Kikue.

Halfway through, Conan suddenly realized that Mr. Asano was not following.

However, he only hesitated for a moment, and quickly found a reason for Nobushige that "Mr. Asano wants to continue to stay there and socialize as a magician's apprentice."

Nobushige knew that apart from him, the most dangerous person in the villa was Tanaka Kikue, but he had no intention of stopping Conan. After all, based on Tanaka Kikue's performance just now, Nobuhiro was worried that she went back to the room just to plan a new round of revenge. With Conan watching over her, it would be hard for her to kill someone in front of children, right?

As for whether Tanaka Kikue will kill Conan in anger... If she really has the ability, then give it a try.

Nobuhiro yawned out of boredom. He had begun to feel that this party was becoming boring.

"Oh, what a pity." Doi Takeshu suddenly sighed with emotion.

"Really?" Naoko Kuroda agreed with a regretful look, "Everyone obviously gathered here to get to know each other, but now the good atmosphere has been ruined like this."

Nishiyama Wu sneered: "Didn't Miss Tanaka say that she is unwell? How could this spoil the atmosphere? I see that all of you are prone to sentimentality."

Takesuki Doi looked at this and that, and said awkwardly: "Actually, my regret is not about this. I think it's a pity that the 'Perfect Crime' designed by Mr. Asano could not be shown in person."

He looked honest and kind again, looked at Nobutushige and asked: "Mr. Asano must have thought for a long time before designing such a great crime method, right? But it's really good and looks very professional."

Gee, is this starting to make you feel weird?

Nobushige wanted to despise a certain phantom thief, but he still smiled gently and said: "It didn't take long. After all, this kind of thing captures a fleeting inspiration, just like many criminals kill with just one thought."

I feel that in the past two days, everyone’s enthusiasm for reading has not been very high, and my enthusiasm for writing books has not been very high either. Maybe it’s because the weather has gotten colder. I wonder.
