Seven years ago, timeline.
Fujiwara Yu was diligently searching for the Child of Destiny named "Edogawa Conan," believing that only by finding him could he gain permanent residency in...
Fujiwara Yu walked down the stairs. He did not rush to Kirishima Xiangshita's room, but went to the bathroom first to see whether this man had a stomachache or was really afraid of the song "Devil's Trill".
But before he had taken a few steps, he heard a strange noise nearby, like the sound of a vase or something breaking. Just as he was hesitating whether to go to the source of the sound first, the sound of breaking came again, louder than the previous one.
Realizing the situation was not good, Fujiwara Yu turned and ran towards the corner. When he arrived at the scene, he found Akihara Chisuwa anxiously knocking on Shirasu Mayumi's door:
"Miss Baizhou? Miss Baizhou, if you heard that, please say something!"
"Is it coming from this room?" Fujiwara Yu reached out and pushed away Kirishima Soshita who was standing stupidly at the door, and asked with a frown.
"Well, I heard the noise when I got here. I wanted to open the door, but it was locked." Akihara Chisu saw the maid Arisa Tachiki coming over, and she immediately instructed: "Ms. Tachiki, can you bring the spare key? We need to open the door."
"Hey? Okay, I'll go now."
Arisa Tachiki, who had just arrived, hurried to her bedroom to get the spare key. Upon hearing the noise, Murasame Shion yawned, not worried about Mayumi Hakusu at all, and even taunted her:
"What are you all making such a fuss about? This woman has a bad temper to begin with, and I'm afraid she's gone off the handle again and started throwing things around again."
The sound of music came from the room. Fujiwara Yuu couldn't make out the content of the music. He turned to look at Fukuoka Kazuya, who looked worried, and asked:
"Mr. Fuqiu, do you know what song is playing inside?"
"Hmm? Ah... This is 'Allegro Passionate'."
Fukuoka Kazuya seemed a little surprised when he answered. Generally speaking, musical instrument collectors are also very familiar with the repertoire. How could Mr. Takashi not know such a classic piece?
"Mr. Takashi! I got the key!" Arisa Tachiki hurriedly ran up and handed the spare key to Sosuke Takashi. She raised her hand to wipe away the sweat that was sliding down, and said with a slightly heavy breath.
"Thanks."
Fujiwara Yu took out a pair of white dust-free gloves from his pocket, inserted the spare key into the keyhole, and as soon as he opened the door, he smelled a familiar smell, the smell of blood. It seemed that it was consistent with what he thought, Shirasu Mayumi should have been killed.
He did not enter the scene directly, but turned his head to look at Akihara Chisuki beside him and habitually gave instructions:
"Qiansu, please maintain order at the scene. Tell them to stay away from here and don't destroy the crime scene."
"Hmm? Oh... okay."
Chisuku Akihara didn't expect that Sosuke Takagi would be like this when he was handling the case. Did this kid forget that he was the older one? He actually dared to call his name directly. It was really interesting.
But at this moment, she was too lazy to care. She put her hands on her waist and looked at the group of people behind her, saying bluntly:
"From now on, no one present is allowed to leave the crime scene. You are all suspects in this case."
"Suspect?"
Kirishima Shichita was stunned for a moment, but soon realized what had happened in the house. His face turned pale instantly. He seemed to be afraid of something, especially when he heard the familiar music coming from the house again.
It's "The Devil's Tremor".
Standing inside, Fujiwara Yuu glanced at the playing speakers and turned them off. He then looked at Shirasu Mayumi, who had already lost all signs of life. The room was littered with broken glass, a mess like it had been struck by a tornado.
He slowed down his pace to avoid disturbing the scene as much as possible, walked to the body of Mayumi Hakushu, bent down and carefully examined the scars on the surface of the body. Except for the fatal wound on the neck, he could not find any signs of struggle. It seemed that the victim was most likely killed in her sleep.
Fujiwara Yu reached out and lifted the body with force. After confirming that there were no glass fragments under the body, he was able to determine that Shirasu Mayumi was first carried to the floor near the door by the murderer and then brutally killed by the murderer.
No matter how soundly a person sleeps, it is impossible for him to be unconscious. So there is only one possibility left - Shirasu Mayumi must have been knocked unconscious by something before she died, so she lost consciousness.
He stood up and walked outside, patting Qiu Yuan Qiansu's shoulder. He showed no fear of the corpse at all, and said calmly:
"Qiansu, go check if there are any needle holes on the victim's body. I'm not very convenient."
"Okay, then I'll leave the order on the scene to you."
Murasame Shion frowned and looked at the indifferent Sosuke Takagi. How could this guy remain so calm after seeing the body? And why did these two pretend to be police officers? Aren't they also suspected of murdering Hakushu?
"Hey! Have you two watched too much TV? And you're pretending..."
"I'm a detective from the Osaka Police Headquarters, not a musical instrument collector," Fujiwara Yuu explained, pulling his police ID from his pocket. "Mr. Yuge told me not to reveal my identity, but now that a murder has occurred, I have no choice but to come forward."
Police? It's actually the police?!
Everyone showed a surprised expression. Fukuoka Kazuya pushed his glasses and muttered to himself: No wonder he asked me about the music repertoire, it turns out he is a policeman.
Kirishima Sachita swallowed hard, not knowing if being with the police had calmed him down a bit, but he still didn't dare to look inside the house. He lowered his voice and asked:
