When Ai guessed the truth.

A few seats away, Kuroba Chikage suddenly felt a chill run through her body.

An ominous premonition arose spontaneously.

She quickly looked around, but found nothing unusual. Everyone was discussing the story told by the mannequin, and no one was paying attention to her.

Um……

It's not that there aren't any.

The great demon beside her ate his food with elegance, and didn't forget to carve a piece of fish for her and place it on the plate in front of her.

This sudden tenderness was almost irresistible to Kuroba Chikage, who nodded slightly and let out a heavy snort, "Mmm."

Her voice seemed to carry a hint of barely perceptible shyness and helplessness.

As Kuroba Chikage withdrew her gaze, Ai, who was listening to Kazuha and Ran's conversation with her head tilted to the side, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a playful smile.

Such a nice toy, and someone actually wanted to play with it secretly without telling her.

Using official vehicles for private purposes is going too far.

...

After everyone had finished their discussion...

The dummy in the main position "kindly offers a hint".

"Two travelers in haste, that night they looked up at the sky and a demon descended upon the castle."

The king took the treasure and fled.

The queen wept as she poured out the Holy Grail, praying for divine mercy.

The soldier, breathless, drew his sword and committed suicide; the earth changed color.

The strange code left everyone present completely baffled.

Hattori Heiji couldn't help but retort, "You don't want us to kill each other like in that tragedy forty years ago, do you? You're underestimating us."

Conan nodded silently in response to his best friend's words.

They were all detectives, and detectives are the most rational group of people. How could they possibly kill each other for a treasure whose location and value were unknown?

This is an insult to the detective profession.

"Good idea, I'd like to know where the treasure is."

Yuzuru put down his cutlery, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and said casually, "I just don't know if it's enough to compensate me for my emotional distress."

Hattori Heiji's expression instantly darkened; he had almost forgotten that Yuu Nan was also there, the source of all the fun.

They don't care about any treasure, but Yuzuru Nan would definitely be happy to see them kill each other. Anyway, with all that ridiculous high-tech stuff he has, no matter what happens, he can't possibly hurt the other side.

"Has the owner of this villa lost his mind? How could he invite this guy over? Is he some kind of detective?!"

Hattori Heiji silently complained to himself.

While Hattori Heiji was muttering to himself, the manipulator behind the dummy was secretly delighted. The only variable actually supported the search for treasure, so what was there to worry about?

The dummy quickly replied, "Please rest assured, Mr. Yuzuru, the treasure in the villa is more than enough to compensate you for your emotional distress. Not only that, I will also give you half of the treasure later."

His words were very sincere, even using honorifics, and his tone was full of flattery.

Yuzuru leaned back in his chair, a hint of mockery in his smile, "That's good..."

Seeing this, Ai shook her head.

Another unlucky guy is about to appear.

A villa made entirely of gold would certainly be enough to compensate for emotional distress, but the problem is, given someone's personality, they wouldn't share something they've set their sights on with others.

If I kill you, all the treasure will be his.

"Sorry, sorry, I'll have to take my leave now."

Harufumi Mogi stood up from his seat, put one hand in his pocket, and said with a bored expression, "I've never been interested in treasure hunting, so I'll be going now."

While still fantasizing about finding the treasure with his son-in-law and splitting it equally afterwards, Kogoro Mouri subconsciously exclaimed, "Hey, Yuzuru's helicopter is coming soon. If you leave now, how are you going to get away?"

"Don't worry about that." Mogi Harufumi waved his hand without turning his head. "This isn't an isolated island in the sea. I can find a way to leave by walking around in the mountains."

He was able to escape easily when he was being hunted by the Mafia in the United States, let alone now that he's just trapped in a small mountain villa.

Detectives are all arrogant. He had no interest in using that boy named Yuzuru Nanami's help to leave.

"I'm leaving now, fellow detectives."

"Bang!"

No sooner had Mogi Harufumi finished speaking than a chair fell to the ground with a thud, and Ooue Kisuke, who was in charge of preparing dinner for them, was lying on the ground clutching his neck, his face contorted in pain.

The other person's eyes were wide open, filled with fear and despair.

Before anyone could react...

Da Shang Zhu Shan let out a series of screams, then lay motionless on the ground with a ferocious expression and unseeing eyes.

"not good!"

"Something's happened!"

Conan and Heiji Hattori rushed over immediately.

Kogoro Mouri followed closely behind, first giving Conan a heavy punch on the head as usual, then grabbing him by the neck and throwing him aside, before bending down with a serious expression to check Oogami Shuzen's pulse.

"Nan, what happened?"

Xiao Lan walked over with a puzzled look and asked.

"Someone actually died!" Kazuha also came over, her face equally full of confusion.

However, the two girls, who were afraid of ghosts and corpses, showed no fear on their faces at this moment. With their Nan around, they were not worried at all.

Yuzuru picked up the little girl who was standing next to the chair and hugged her, ignoring her resistance, and carelessly ruffled her soft brown short hair.

His eyes held a deeper meaning as he glanced meaningfully at the old woman who remained quietly seated with her eyes narrowed, despite the unexpected turn of events. He slowly said, "It's nothing, the killing and treasure hunting game has just officially begun."

On the other side.

"Da Shang Zhushan died at 22:34:51."

Kogoro Mouri and his fellow detectives stood up with grim faces and solemnly confirmed the time of Oogami Shuzen's death.

At the same time, one thing was confirmed.

That means the person who invited them here this time is definitely not Kaito Kid.

That thief never kills anyone.

Mogi Harufumi's expression changed repeatedly, his gaze shifting between the corpse of Oogami Shuzen on the ground and the people around him. After hesitating for a moment, he finally turned and walked towards Hanyu Nanami by the dining table.

"Mr. Yuzuru, how long will it take for the helicopter you called to arrive?"

Mogi Harufumi's tone was less arrogant than before, and more respectful and eager.

A man can bend and stretch.

He admitted that he had been too arrogant just now, and now he just wanted to leave this hellhole as soon as possible; his life was the most important thing.

Yuzuru turned his head to look at the respectful Mogi Harufumi in front of him, and exchanged a glance with Ai. Both of them wanted to laugh.

They still liked each other's unruly demeanor from earlier.

...

(Happy Lunar New Year, everyone!)
