Chapter 49: Blue Castle Incident?

After walking in, I realized that this was not a villa, but a blue castle.

Wait, Blue Castle?

Xiaosong frowned slightly, it felt a bit familiar, it should be a similar plot or something.

"Is there anyone there?" Yuantai shouted at the top of his lungs.

No one responded.

It was evening now, and there were no lights inside. There was no sound in the quiet castle, as if no one was moving.

Yuantai walked around the gate, and suddenly a man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks appeared at the door.

The man was wearing work clothes and a beret. He looked reluctant and said, "Hey, what are you doing here?!"

"That's it. Our car broke down. Can we stay overnight?" Dr. A Li immediately explained the situation.

Hearing this, Tabata Katsuo glanced at Komatsu and others next to him, frowning slightly.

He is just the gardener here and cannot make the decision, but according to the old lady's wishes, these people should not be welcome.

Besides, if you just report this little thing, you probably won’t be able to live with it.

Although he sympathizes with Dr. Ari's plight, he cannot lose his job.

After thinking about it, Tabata Katsuo refused and said, "Okay, you go quickly, while it's still early, maybe you can find a hotel to stay overnight."

"No way, the old lady doesn't like strangers disturbing her."

After Tabata Katsuo said that, he stared at the few people, fearing that someone would slip in if they didn't pay attention.

"Okay, let's go back first." Dr. Ali urged.

If people don't agree, then they can only find other places to stay as soon as possible.

"Yes!" Yuantai and others responded, a little downcast.

At this moment, a voice sounded inside.

"Why is there so much noise at the door? What happened?"

The person who came was a middle-aged man with a relatively burly appearance.

Mamiya Mitsuru, the old lady's son-in-law, just came in as a wife.

To be precise, he is the second husband of the old lady's daughter, which can be regarded as a continuation of the relationship.

"Sir, it's like this. The car of the pot-bellied man broke down and he wanted to stay overnight." Tabata Katsuo explained the situation clearly and neatly.

Dr. A Li couldn't sit still immediately.

Don't make personal attacks on me!

"It's so rude, don't look at me like this, I'm a scientist." In order to prove himself, Dr. A Li even pulled up his clothes, tucked in his belly, and tried to look serious.

Haha, no matter how hard you suck your belly, you can't hide the fat on your body.

The corners of Conan's mouth twitched.

Mamiya Mitsuru was extremely surprised and said: "Scientist?"

"Ah, I am also somewhat famous." Dr. Agasa was very satisfied with Mamiya Mitsuru's attitude, which made him feel a lot better.

"That's it. In other words, you should be much smarter than ordinary people." Mamiya Mitsuru remembered something.

This castle holds a secret.

But for many years, no one has been able to solve the mystery. It is said that after solving the mystery, the most precious treasure of the former owner can be obtained.

He was still very curious about this matter.

Thinking of this.

Mamiya Mitsuru decided to let a few people stay overnight. They had many rooms here and there was no shortage of food for these people.

"Okay, come on in. If you can solve the mystery in the castle, that would be great. If you can't solve it, that's okay."

Mamiya Mitsuru's words shocked Tabata Katsuo next to him, and he quickly reminded: "Sir, don't forget the eldest wife."

"It's okay, just say they are my friends, so my mother won't say anything more." Mamiya waved his hand disapprovingly.

Although he is a son-in-law, he still has the right to speak.

"Okay." Tabata Katsuo immediately changed his words.

He is just a servant, just a reminder is enough, it would be rude to say more.

"The answer to the mystery? What is that?" Conan became interested and asked immediately.

Tabata Katsuo also opened the door and let everyone in. Mamiya Mitsuru led everyone while explaining.

When Xiaosong walked to the edge of the garden, he immediately noticed the decorations next to it.

Xiao Ai also noticed this side, looked at it twice, and said, "Chess?"

After Xiaosong saw the chessboard, he completely remembered it. It was really the original plot.

If I remember correctly, the prisoner was the old lady.

It seemed like there was a burned tower in the distance.

At this time, Mamiya Mitsuru happened to introduce the tower not far away.

From a distance, the tower is pitch black, and at first glance there are traces of the fire.

According to Mamiya Mitsuru's explanation, many people died in the tower, including his wife, a group of servants, etc. It was even published in the newspapers that year, which can be regarded as causing quite a stir.

During Mamiya Mitsuru's introduction, Yuantai and others were already observing the chessboard in the courtyard.

The chessboard can be said to have been completely reproduced and formed into a chess set.

"The owner here must like chess."

Ayumi's tone was full of affirmation.

Being able to make the lawn look like a chessboard and put chess pieces on it speaks volumes.

Gentai and Mitsuhiko were immediately sure that they both had Ayumi in their eyes.

"The triangle shape is not stable either." Komatsu complained.

Getting back to the topic, after Mamiya Mitsuru introduced him, he immediately led everyone into the castle.

As soon as Xiaosong entered the door, he saw an old lady in a wheelchair.

The old lady has a distinctive wrinkled face and wears a pair of glasses.

Kayo Mamiya, the current owner of the castle, but according to the plot, her identity is fake. In fact, she is the previous housekeeper - Mutsumi Nishikawa.

She is also the final boss of this castle trip.

"Who are these people?" Kayo Mamiya stopped and asked.

"Oh, Madam, these are friends of the gentleman." Katsuo Tabata explained immediately.

"Oh, so that's the case. I thought it was my daughter who came back." Kayo Mamiya shook her head slightly, and then continued:

"If my daughter comes back, remember to ask her to come to my room."

The daughter she mentioned was one of the people who died at the fire scene many years ago, that is, Mamiya Man's wife.

"Yes, Madam." Katsuo Tabata quickly agreed.

In the eyes of others, Kayo Mamiya is now a mentally ill person. She is like this now because she misses her daughter too much.

Komatsu nodded slightly, very appreciative. This old lady's acting skills are unique. She has been able to act for so many years, and I am afraid it has been integrated into her bones.

Then, Mamiya Kayo, sitting in a wheelchair, turned a drift and disappeared directly into the corridor.

"Is there a power supply installed in the wheelchair? And there must be a secondary suspension spring." Komatsu began to analyze from a scientific perspective.

Trying to come up with the correct theory of wheelchair drift.

Xiao Ai, who was next to him, heard this and sighed slightly, pulled Komatsu, and then said: "It's time to go upstairs, Ayumi and the others have gone upstairs."

Just now Conan asked about the room where he could see the whole chessboard, and now the group has run upstairs.
