"Chocolate? Why is there chocolate next to the body?"
Hearing the words of the tenant named Niheng Jiagui, Ayako and the other two girls, including Maori Kogoro, all looked confused.
Weird and Western chocolate just don't go together at all.
"Local legend has it that these are girls who came here to make chocolates, got lost on the winding mountain roads and died on their way. They hold a grudge against the girls, so every year around Valentine's Day, they come out to cause trouble."
Erheng Jiagui spread his hands. "But after the criminal investigation, it was said that the animals in the mountains were short of food in the winter, so they turned over the victim's backpack and let the chocolate accidentally fall out..."
Having said that, Erheng Jiagui put on his goggles and said goodbye to the two female companions beside him, "Then I will go to work first."
"Be careful on the road~" the woman with short black hair warned.
"Erheng... it's good to be enthusiastic about your work, but you still have to pay attention to safety and don't be bewitched by the Snow Girl..." The long-haired woman warned him sternly, "Don't get lost in the forest!"
"Don't worry! Fanchuan, if the Snow Woman plans to give me chocolate, I will tell her... I already have a woman named Ako..."
Having said that, the man walked straight to the short-haired woman and kissed her on the cheek, openly showing his affection.
But just as he was about to step away, a playing card suddenly appeared in mid-air and finally landed at his feet.
"I think it's better for you not to leave this villa, otherwise your life may be in danger."
A male voice rang out and reached everyone's ears. Hearing this familiar voice, Conan and others were shocked.
"Kaito Kidd!?"
Everyone turned their heads to look at the source of the sound, and sure enough, on the roof of the villa, there was an elegant figure wearing a flashy white suit and a single-frame glasses on his right eye.
The white cloak fluttered in the cold wind, and a calm and majestic posture appeared in everyone's eyes.
"Hey! You bastard thief, why are you here!!" Maori Kogoro clenched his fists on his chest and roared, "Or is there something here worth stealing?"
"Don't think so badly of me." Kaito Kidd chuckled and said, "I'm just here to repay the pigeon's favor."
"A favor for the pigeon?" Conan's eyes narrowed when he heard this, and he became even more confused.
He stared at Kaito Kidd on the roof, wondering how the other party planned to return the favor in this situation.
As if he could see everyone's confusion, Kaito Kid smiled softly, "It's never good to get stained with blood on Valentine's Day, especially since today is the first Valentine's Day that Detective Karasawa and Miss Ayako have spent together.
If possible, I still hope that you two can leave behind a good memory.
I just happened to be investigating a case that would involve all the tenants of the villa, so I came to offer my condolences~"
"Oh no, no, I accidentally said too much. I need to leave quickly, otherwise I'll be in trouble when Detective Tang Ze comes out."
Kaito Kidd checked his watch and waved to everyone, "Goodbye. As for the key item that triggered the case, I've already delivered it to Detective Tang Ze."
At this point, Kaito Kid looked at Conan below meaningfully and said with a smile: "Then the rest of the matter will be left to you two to solve. Goodbye~"
Without waiting for anyone to react, Kaito Kidd jumped directly from the other side of the roof. By the time everyone ran around to the other side of the house, he was no longer there.
When the group returned to the gate of the villa, they saw Tang Ze and two men carrying hunting rifles, laughing and chatting about something.
"Detective Karasawa, have you seen Kaito Kid?!" After seeing Karasawa, Kogoro Mouri immediately rushed up and asked.
"Huh? Kaito Kidd? That's not the case." Tang Ze said with a puzzled expression: "Why are you mentioning him out of the blue?"
"That guy suddenly showed up and said that a case involving everyone in the villa was going to happen, and he also said that he would hand over the key clues to you!"
Upon hearing this, Maori Kogoro quickly spoke up and repeated what he had encountered before to Karasawa, "How is it, Detective Karasawa, did you encounter anything different before!?"
"Come to think of it, I just came out of the bathroom and there was a letter on the sink... It wasn't there before I went in..."
Tang Ze touched his chin and said, "At that time, I thought someone had dropped it there, so I didn't move it. I guess this is it..."
"Then let's go check it out quickly!"
Upon hearing this, Conan, who was standing by, quickly ran towards the bathroom with his short legs. He soon saw the letter on the bathroom wall and reached out to open it under the gaze of everyone.
After everyone finished reading the contents of the printed letter, they couldn't help but turn their attention to Erheng Jiagui.
"Why...why are you all looking at me?"
Because he was at the outermost edge and had not seen the contents of the letter, Erheng Jiagui saw everyone's gazes and couldn't help but said in a panic.
"Erheng... the letter says... four years ago... the videotape of the murder of Brother Yazi and the previous owner of the villa... is that real?!"
Fenchuan looked at his old friend in disbelief and exclaimed, "Could it be that you really saved this videotape for blackmail as the letter said?!"
As the other party spoke, the two men with guns on their backs, who were still confused, suddenly changed their expressions in horror, and almost wanted to take out the hunting rifles from their backs as a conditioned reflex.
"Hey, hey, you guys seem a little too anxious. Aren't you just walking into a trap?"
Before the two men could raise their hunting rifles, as Tang Ze finished his words, a gentleman's stick accurately hit their hands. With two screams of pain, the hunting rifles in their hands fell directly onto the snow.
"Kid's letter said that this case involves all the residents, which naturally includes you two."
Looking at the two people with grim expressions, Tang Ze smiled and said, "Although I still don't know the specific content of the videotape from four years ago.
But since Mr. Erheng can use this to blackmail you, it must be something shameful."
"Asshole! Do it!!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, one of the men wearing glasses roared and rushed forward to attack Yuanzi next to him, trying to distract Tang Ze and force him to protect Yuanzi.
The other bearded man took the opportunity to squat down and bend over, ready to pick up the gun, hoping to control the situation again.
However, the plan of the two was of no use at all. Tang Ze figured out their purpose in the blink of an eye. He felt nothing in his heart and even wanted to laugh.
Under normal circumstances, this plan of splitting the troops into two groups might actually work, but now...
Please observe a three-second silence for the two unknown extras...
