Chapter 909 Mizuno Rena: You Want to Die!

"You came back to Japan for this reason. I read that people on the Internet said that you came back for Kaitou Kidd, and..."

Hattori Heiji spoke bluntly, glanced in Karasawa's direction from the corner of his eye, and swallowed the rest of his words.

He did not finish speaking, but many people present knew that due to the highly overlapping personalities of Hakuba Tan and Akechi Goro, many people speculated that the rise of Hakuba Tan had greatly squeezed out Hakuba Tan's activity space, regardless of living in the UK. For many years, Detective White Horse, whose father is a high-ranking police officer, will most likely return to Japan to develop his career.

There is destined to be a comparison between the two people, so it would be better to bring this contest forward to now.

This is the reason why many people speculate that Baima Tan returned to China. It is even said that this is one of the reasons why this program was approved by the TV station.

Is it a hot topic nowadays? Everyone in the media doesn’t love this.

"Nonsense." Detective White Horse laughed, "I am indeed a little interested in Kidd, but I am not a detective who cares about a phantom thief who has caused little social loss. The only reason for the detective to change his itinerary is to investigate the case. "

Conan, who had finished a glass of soda and was secretly taking the new drink from the staff while the camera wasn't turning, glanced at him subtly when he heard this.

Kaito Kid is a Kaito, and the Phantom Thief of Heart is also a Kaito. What he said was a bit of a pun.

At least after the last contact, White Horse Detective should have classified Kidd and Joker into categories that don't require much attention.

When Conan thought about the gathering of magic fans, Karasawa also thought about the same thing.

He continued to drink from the cup in his hand, and his thoughts couldn't help but start to wander.

The last time and Hakuba's words just now proved that his reason for returning to Japan had nothing to do with most of the speculation. He redefined his future plans with a very serious intention to explore the truth and redress the grievances of the victims. of planning.

So, when he went all the way to the villa last time, was it to block Kidd, because he was trying to stop a murder that almost happened, or was he actually here to see him?

Meet "Aki Karasawa", the child whose childhood photo he should theoretically have seen among the belongings of the Karasawa couple.

If you think about it this way, Baima's temptation at that time has a different meaning...

"You are really a competent detective. So, why did you agree to participate in this variety show? Is it really because of your wet nurse's expectations of you, as you said before?" Koshimi Nanatsuki tilted his head, his expression Much calmer than at the beginning.

Just as she was very fond of Hattori Heiji because he valued human life far more than solving the case itself, when Detective Hakuba showed a more humane idea of ​​​​wanting to fulfill the wishes of the deceased who could no longer speak. , her attitude change was almost immediate.

Since her friend's case happened, her thoughts are now very firm. Detectives should first be a good person before they can consider the attributes of their profession.

"Part of it is true." Bai Ma Tan did not deny it and gave a vague answer. He glanced at Tang Ze, who had not spoken any more, and did not explain his statement further.

Karasawa silently drank the water in the cup, regained control of his expression, and sat up with a smile that belonged to Goro Akechi.

No matter how much you think about it, it can be discussed later. As Goro Akechi, he would never behave inappropriately in front of the camera.

"Okay, everyone's stories are very interesting. It seems like it should be my turn next, right? Well, let me think about it... Without involving the client's privacy, tell me something related to a case that I have experienced. It’s a puzzle…”

Tangze put on a thinking posture, weighed the situation in his mind, and took out the content he had prepared.

"That's it. In a manor that is shrouded in thick fog and cannot be found by ordinary people, there lives an old rich man. His wealth is unmatched by anyone. In addition, there are rumors that there is actually a man hidden in the manor. Legendary treasure. One day, the rich man died suddenly. He had no children and no direct blood relatives. He only left a mysterious will, claiming that whoever could solve the three mysteries in the manor would inherit everything. heritage……"

Conan, who was already ready to listen to the story, felt that the story sounded familiar to him, as if he had heard it somewhere.

As well as, "shrouded in thick fog", "ordinary people can't find it", etc., as soon as these adjectives were added, his brain almost uncontrollably began to recall everything he had experienced in the Blue Castle...

This is almost destined to be like that castle. Due to the special nature of the closure, a cognitive space is formed, and it is almost an environment that can create new urban ghost stories.

However, except for Conan, no one had any reaction to this beginning, which was similar to the beginning of a legendary story just like a long, long time ago. Everyone was waiting intently for Akechi to reveal the content of the following questions.

"The heirs of the manor, or in other words, the guys who thought they were heirs, came to the manor together and prepared a feast, trying to solve the puzzle and compete for this immeasurable inheritance. However, after one night, everyone Everyone who entered the manor died." Tangze finished the story gently, raising a finger and saying, "Okay, here's my question."

"...Is this really a commission you have accepted?" Before he was about to start decrypting the code, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but ask, "All the people who entered the manor to participate in the inheritance fight died? When did this happen? Why haven’t I heard of it?”

In addition, the inheritance of a rich man was involved, and all the participants died mysteriously. This kind of case, not to mention sensationalizing the whole of Japan, was not to the extent that even the detectives had never heard of it.

"Yes." Karasawa looked at Hattori Heiji with a look that looked at a fool, "Have you encountered too many criminal cases and your mind can't turn around at all, Hattori-kun? I am a private detective, and I don't always He works for the police. It’s obvious that he was asked by a descendant of a rich man to investigate?”

"Ah, it didn't happen now, then you can understand it." Hattori Heiji breathed a sigh of relief, and then thought about it for a moment, and found that there was more than one incident in his mind, and he couldn't help but froze for a moment, " Hiss, if you want to say that, I still feel like I can’t determine which thing it is..."

By the way, does it happen occasionally in Japan that a rich man leaves an inheritance that no one can inherit, leading to a battle royale? Is the living environment of Japan's rich people so bad?

Hattori Heiji fell into confusion, and Karasawa Gon assumed that he had asked the first question, smoothly ignored him, and looked at Koshimi Nanatsuki.

"Ah, is it me? It's a bit too much like a story, which makes me lack of ideas. Let me think about it..." Koshimizu Nanatsuki tilted his head and asked the first question, "All the dead are Murdered?"

"Yes." Tangze nodded, confirming her guess, "What I said may be a bit certain, but before I accepted the commission, the client had also investigated for many years, and the conclusion was this. Yes, they are Murdered to death."

"To murder so many people at once in one day, it seems that the method of committing the crime is very limited." Detective Bai Ma took her question, "The method of killing many people at once is nothing more than that. Several, let’s start with the most likely one: Was the manor set on fire?”

"No. Apart from the visitor's body, the police who arrived at the scene did not find any other traces."

"If it's not arson, and there's no obvious fighting scene, then the situations that can be considered are very limited. Poisoning, right? Even if no direct lethal poison was used, it is very likely that some means were used to put sleeping pills or the like, otherwise It's impossible to explain so many deaths." Conan's mind increasingly matched this description with a certain event, and his thoughts evolved quickly. "The rich people have no direct blood relatives, and they don't even have designated heirs. So, who is the murderer of them? The rich man himself?”

"...Yes." Tang Ze saw the look on Conan's face and knew that he probably understood what he was talking about, so he smiled back at him, "A very smart kid. Some ideas are indeed very difficult for adults who are affected by inertial thinking. It’s hard to imagine.”

This amount of information was a little too much, and several people present raised their eyebrows.

"But isn't this a murder that happened at the banquet after the rich man's death?" Tokijin Junya asked instinctively. After thinking about it, he denied his statement, "However, it's right to think about it. The rich man is It’s not death, and it has nothing to do with whether he killed other people. So, was everything prepared by the rich man before he died?”

Perhaps because the description of this topic was different from the previous ones and was far away from the actual criminal investigation, the languid Tokijin Junya regained a little vitality.

"Yes. Of course, it is impossible for us to reconfirm this conclusion with any of the parties involved. However, I am a detective, and the detective must believe what the evidence says." Tang Ze bent his eyes and smiled at him hypocritically, "So My answer is, yes, he prepared it before he died."

After his death, would he use his death to gather a crowd and then kill them all in the manor...

What kind of guy does this have to be, and how much does he hate the world to do such a thing?

"Your description reminds me of a guy who used his will to turn the entire city upside down. He is a person who is afraid of the world being in chaos." Hattori Heiji complained in a low voice, "Then, he killed these people The reason is that he has grudges with these people? I really can’t imagine any reason why a person would rather die than let others go.”

"Yes, or, at least according to my investigation, that's the case." Tang Ze considered the words and gave a rigorous answer.

Regarding the truth about the manor, until he got real confirmation, he could only give a reasonable guess or answer based on the information and evidence he had obtained.

"Well, I seem to understand." Koshimizu Nanatsuki hit his palm with his fist, "This will seems to be a condition for selecting heirs, but it is actually a criterion for selecting victims, right? He used the so-called puzzles and conditions , let people who think they can fulfill the conditions come to the manor, and then use the mechanisms or poisons that have been prepared to trap them all there. Although the specific details are not yet known, it is really true. A vicious guy."

He had no direct blood relatives, and he had no chosen heir. You can guess that before his death, this old guy lived a very lonely life, and was not easy to get close to.

This means that no matter whether he is using the will to find enemies or to take revenge on certain people, there must be innocent people who will also take the bait, be blinded by the white silver, and get involved in the hope of getting lucky. That means that there must be many innocent people who were killed there.

People who can do such things, whether they are simply vicious or some scheming hero, can be described as vicious.

"Yes, Miss Yueshui, your guess is basically what I think is the truth." Tang Ze spread his hands and said frankly, "It's not a very difficult turtle soup, and the reason why I bring it up is that there are too many theories about this mystery that has not been solved for decades. Some people say that there was a dispute at the banquet, and the guests fought each other and had physical conflicts, and finally triggered the mechanism and all died there. Some people say that the banquet was in the name of a banquet, but it was actually an auction. It was the people who got the rich man's inheritance who took over the rich man's collection and auctioned it off. They were cursed and retaliated by the dead, and no one left alive with anything. Oh, and there is the most exaggerated saying that the banquet was a banquet in name, but it was actually a group of wealthy drug addicts who found an excuse to get together. Due to the effect of hallucinogens, it turned into a bloody banquet..."

Accompanied by his description with a strong sense of picture and narrative, everyone present couldn't help but imagine a few pictures. After a little reasoning, they had to admit that they were indeed valid guesses.

Without evidence, any kind of guesses and conspiracy theories can be established.

"It's a bit twisted and bizarre, isn't it? However, my conclusion is different from theirs. In addition, because I have come into contact with the descendants of some of the deceased, I know a little about the situation on that day." Tang Ze raised his hands, confident and somewhat provocative, and smiled at the camera, "My reasoning is that the menu of this feast is nominally the legacy of the rich, but in fact... it is the guests present."

It makes people feel a little bit cold, and even a little nauseous if they think about it a little more. The expressions of several detectives with rich imaginations twisted.

Tang Ze opened his mouth and wanted to say something else. Mizunashi Rena frowned and came out from behind a machine, raised the things in her hand, and stopped him from saying the rest.

"Sorry, everyone, pause for a moment, the machine has been disturbed and has some problems. Pause for a few minutes."

When she spoke, her eyes were fixed on Tang Ze, and a line of words was written in her two beautiful cat eyes-

"You are going to die if you say this here!"
