Chapter 50 The Murderer: The Villa Is Haunted!
Ikeda Zhijiazi didn't hear Sonoko's words clearly, she said to herself: "I'm not interested in playing this boring suspense game with you. Really, I came out to relax, but I encountered such an unpleasant thing.
"Sorry, I'm not in the mood. You guys have dinner, I'm going straight back to my room to rest."
After all, she left near the suspension bridge without looking back.
As the host, Suzuki Ayako hurriedly followed.
"Let's go too." Mao Lilan sighed, "Now it's so dark and the road is broken again, we can only wait until tomorrow morning to find a way to go down. On the way back, we can also look for Mr. Asano."
Sonoko paused for a long time, until Mao Lilan looked over suspiciously, then she clapped her hands and said, "Mr. Asano must be in danger! Very good, now is the time for the beauty to save the hero!"
Conan: "..."
Hey hey, expecting you to save Asano is better than relying on him to save himself.
Although they searched carefully on the way back, and even searched the grass that could hide the corpse, there was still no sign of Nobushige Asano. — After all, no one thought of digging through the basement or anything.
As time went by, Mao Lilan's worries became deeper and deeper. Conan also frowned tightly, and began to analyze what happened today.
Something is wrong, very wrong. Where is the problem?
It doesn't make sense even if the bandage guy really attacked Mr. Asano, because he was obviously someone who hadn't appeared on the guest list before.
Is that a random injury? Just saw that Mr. Asano was alone, so he attacked?
"This party really failed." Suzuki Ayako said while tidying up the table. There was loss and melancholy in her expression.
Seeing this, Yuanzi was also very helpless: "It's all my sister's fault that you mentioned that incident before."
"Are you referring to Miss Atsuko?" Conan raised his head and asked, "It's the one who died two years ago."
Yuanzi showed a look of astonishment, and Mao Lilan quickly stopped Conan: "Don't talk too much!"
Suzuki Ayako stared at Conan's little friend, and sighed after a long time: "Atsuko used to be a member of the Film Research Society, but committed suicide two years ago. We used to have such a good relationship, and it turned out..."
The figure of Takahashi Ryoichi appeared on the second floor. He had just come down from the roof and was about to take off his raincoat.
Seeing him, Suzuki Ayako greeted him: "You haven't had dinner yet, hurry up and eat!"
Masaru Ota: "Ikeda hasn't come down either, has he?"
"Well, Chikako is resting in her room, she doesn't seem to want to eat dinner."
Ryoichi Takahashi walked downstairs and said, "She has been like this since she was a student... who?!"
Takahashi Ryoichi turned his head suddenly, and a black shadow flashed behind him.
"Ah—" Mao Lilan exclaimed, "That's...Miss Ikeda!!!"
Takahashi Ryoichi's face suddenly became pale and pale. He opened the window and looked, but there was nothing.
"Why do I feel that Ms. Ikeda's condition is not right?"
"How can a normal person float outside the second floor!!"
"And...Miss Ikeda, Miss Ikeda seems to have only a head!!!"
Everyone looked extremely terrified. Under such a background, Ryoichi Takahashi's reaction seemed very normal.
Kakutani Hiroki was the first to rush out of the villa, followed by the others.
Takahashi Ryoichi put away the piano wire, his expression was still in a state of trance.
what happened? Why did his elaborate mechanism go wrong? Why did the dummy wearing the Bandage Monster clothes that was fixed with Chikako Ikeda disappear?
Now, the only one in his hands is Chikako Ikeda's dead head.
Things seemed to exceed his expectations, what should he do? ?
Seeing everyone rushing out of the villa, Takahashi Ryoichi knew that if he dawdled any longer, he might arouse suspicion. He hurriedly stuffed Ikeda Chikako's head into the cotton stuffed in his stomach, and then ran out.
The crowd chased all the way to the woods, and then Mao Lilan suddenly let out a scream: "Ah——"
In the grass in front of her, a severed leg appeared, still bleeding.
Conan's pupils constricted suddenly, and he stepped forward to check: "This is a woman's left leg...I'm afraid Ms. Chikako Ikeda has already been killed!"
And the murderer also carried out inhumane dismemberment of the corpse, it was too much!
And as they continued to move forward, more and more blood clots from severed limbs appeared in front of everyone.
In the end, Kakutani Hiroki found Chikako Ikeda's discarded upper body, with a deep scar on her neck.
As soon as Kakutani Hiroki hugged her with a scream, Ikeda Chikako's head broke off.
"Chikako—" Suzuki Ayako subconsciously covered her eyes, her heart beating non-stop.
Although Conan, as a high school student detective, has solved many murder cases. But it was the first time he had seen such a tragic scene like this time.
"Not good!" Conan said suddenly, "If there is a murder case, brother Asano may be in trouble!"
"Why, why don't you suspect that Nobushige Asano killed Ikeda at all?!" Ryoichi Takahashi said in horror, "Didn't Ikeda still suspect that the bandage monster was pretended by Nobushige Asano before? Now she is dead... this It's obvious that Nobushige Asano was furious when his identity was discovered, right??"
"Who would kill and dismember a corpse just because a prank was discovered!!" Suzuki Sonoko yelled at Ryoichi Takahashi, "And Mr. Asano and Xiaolan saw the Bandage Monster together when they came here. How could it be him?!"
"That's the Bandage Man! He's the one who's been creating fear around the villa. He's the one who killed Chikako Ikeda!!" Ryoichi Takahashi trembled, sweating profusely. "Either this villa is a haunted house, haunted! The Bandage Man is a ghost!"
The latter sentence Takahashi Ryoichi said was very true, because he really suspected that the villa was haunted. Otherwise, with everyone staying in the villa, how could there be any problems with the mechanism he made? ?
"Ghost, haunted??" Mao Lilan's face changed drastically, "Isn't it?"
Conan suddenly felt that things that he hadn't figured out before were all connected together: "Sister Sonoko, you said before that brother Asano separated from you in order to get back to get the phone, right?"
"Yeah." Sonoko was a little puzzled, "Hey, don't you kid also suspect Mr. Asano?!"
"No." Conan said seriously, "I just remembered that when Brother Asano was out with you, I saw him put his phone in his pocket."
