At this moment, what appeared before their eyes was a human head and hands that suddenly appeared under the wall!
The killer must have hung a mask where the body was exposed on the wall, and since the light inside the shrine is dim, you can tell it's out from the front."
"What?"
"What!?"
"The village chief..." the girl stammered with a horrified expression, "The village chief is dead..."
"I understand. You go find the acting village chief." When the old detective heard Conan's words, I, with my experience, understood the concerns behind Conan's words and hurried to find the village chief.
"You heard the child screaming under the car, then went to check on the situation, and then learned about the body."
So before you wait for the local criminals to come and communicate with the villagers, follow the formal procedures to open the small door of the shrine.
Tang Ze looked at the corpses under the shrine wall and said in disbelief: "When you came to worship in the afternoon, there were clearly no bodies!"
However, Conan slowly suppressed the thought in his mind, and before asking the other party where the local criminals were stationed, he asked me to go and report the news.
Because the body was not thrown into the shrine carelessly, but was fixed in the shrine by someone!
"This is troublesome." Tang Ze was also quite troubled. "There are less than 500 people in that village, and there are too few people who are not suspects."
He wasn't just lying in an ordinary room in the shrine, but was stuck under the wall!
Although they had not yet learned from the girl that the village chief's body was in the shrine, the two were still shocked when they saw the appearance of the body in the shrine.
Hearing Conan's words, Tang Ze nodded, looked at the corpse inside the shrine and asked: "What are you going to do now?"
The senior criminal standing by couldn't help but speak, "They saw that a small part of the body was embedded in the cement, with only the hands and face exposed.
"Don't panic, take a deep breath, and calm down." Tang Ze comforted the other party before asking, "Where did he see the village chief?"
When we saw the corpse in the shrine, our reactions were all very weak.
"It's your village chief, Sato Tetsuya." The acting village chief suppressed his nausea and fear, looked at the face of the corpse and nodded.
After looking at the body, Conan said, "Do you remember the first time you came here? The village chief had just disappeared at that time, and you came to the shrine, but didn't find anything."
The two of them gradually approached the faint shouting sound, and soon they heard what the person was shouting, and their faces changed immediately.
The two approached the shrine and tried to push open the door, but found that the small door of the shrine was still closed.
A panicked cry was heard, and Conan and the others hurriedly ran towards the direction of the person who was shouting.
But now that the body has appeared, no matter how it was found, it will provide you with clues."
The two men suppressed their desire to check the body and waited patiently for the arrival of the local criminal police.
While Tang Ze was talking, Conan also saw an older woman with a bowl-cut haircut standing among the crowd in the shrine, so he went down and called her over: "Hello again, you remember that he came to the shrine a week later to hang the village chief's mask, right?"
The old criminal said, "You also investigated the shrine before, and even borrowed the key to retreat inside, but you also didn't find anything.
Because when we arrived, the girl who found the body had not yet notified the on-duty criminals, so the criminals were probably not on their way yet.
After all, the villagers were resting at home before lunch, and there were many people outside the village, so there was naturally no need for us to stay inside.
"Is that so?" The old detective nodded and looked at Kimura Toru and asked, "Didn't he see the body when he retreated into the shrine?"
After all, if the platform definitely didn’t find the body, the body the girl found should not be inside the shrine.
"Yes, it was at the shrine... You went here to play... and the result... the result..." The girl's voice was trembling, as if she was thinking of some terrible scene, and she couldn't say the next words.
Because Conan visited our residence later and asked if there was any new update on the missing case, so the other party naturally knew Conan.
Fortunately, the senior criminal was well-known among the villagers, and he managed to maintain order, preventing us from getting too close to the shrine and preventing us from opening the small door without permission.
Conan and the others then retreated into the shrine.
The old detective was horrified when he heard Tang Ze's words: "They said there were no bodies in the afternoon, but how is that possible!?"
In addition to allowing the elderly to pray in the shrine, I also publicly announced that I would open the small door of the shrine to allow the criminals to conduct an investigation.
The older criminal's face slowly turned grim, and he was comforted by the older criminal and stood where he was before moving closer, while Conan and Tang Ze had not yet reached the corpse.
Without the support of the acting village chief, even if some people did not buy, they were still pressured by the other party.
In that case, even if the villagers are dissatisfied, they will only be dissatisfied with the Metropolitan Police Department as a whole, and will not target you personally."
"Acting village chief, please confirm the identity of the body." Conan looked at the middle-aged woman and said.
"Although the cause of death can't be determined until the body is removed from the wall, judging by the surface of the body visible to the naked eye, it seems he was murdered at least a week ago."
After all, the people outside seem to be very afraid that the missing person will come back again, or the appearance of a corpse in the shrine is not a good sign in our eyes.
The two of us ran all the way towards the shrine.
"According to your investigation, it seems that no one saw the deceased walking towards the shrine after he disappeared."
