Chapter 421: Ghost Outside the Window



"Damn bastard!! Who on earth is so boring!"

"Don't let me catch you! Otherwise, I'll make you pay!"

Because of the "face-to-face killing", even Kogoro Mouri, who didn't believe in ghosts, was frightened. After hearing the explanation of Karasawa and the others, he yelled in frustration.

Although Xiaolan didn't say anything, after hearing the principle from the two of them, her pink little fists were clenched tightly. Conan swallowed his saliva and observed a three-second silence for the mastermind behind the trick.

You want to live after messing with Brother Lang? I'll punch you in the chest with my little fist, leaving it sunken and causing you to vomit three liters of blood.

While cursing, Kogoro Mouri's urine stimulated the nerves on the surface of the renal pelvis due to the sudden fright. This layer of nerves is connected to the spine, stimulating the nerves in the spine and causing the urge to urinate.

Well, to put it simply, after the sudden "face-to-face kill", Kogoro Mouri wanted to go to the bathroom.

Because the restroom here is public and there is no one in the room, Kogoro Mouri had to run outside to use the toilet.

He opened the bathroom door cursing, and suddenly a foul smell hit him in the face, forcing Kogoro Mouri to pinch his nose.

"Oh my god, what the hell is this toilet?" After entering the bathroom, Maori Kogoro looked at the toilet bowl in silence. "It's black and smelly. Could there be a bunch of dead bugs in there?"

In desperation, Kogoro Mouri had to press the flush button to get rid of the stench in the room.

But the next moment, what Kogoro Mouri saw was bright red blood flushed out of the toilet.

“Wow!!!”

Because he had just been attacked by a female ghost in the face, Kogoro Mouri, who was already a little frightened, started screaming again.

Hearing Kogoro Mouri's shout, Karasawa and his group also ran out quickly.

"What's wrong, Dad!?" Xiaolan asked worriedly as she looked at Kogoro Mouri who was standing on the wall and pointing at the bathroom.

"Blood, blood...the water in the toilet just now...was stained red with blood..." Kogoro Mouri stuttered, looking extremely frightened.

"What's wrong? What are you guys arguing about?" Downstairs, a bespectacled Mudan Luyan said somewhat dissatisfiedly, "I still have a paper to write. Could you please stop being so loud?"

"Haha, it looks like it's coming again..." Banmachi Kikuji laughed with glee as he looked at the frightened Mouri Kogoro.

"Really?!" Yotsuya Iwanaga's face lit up with excitement after hearing what the other party said. "If that's the case, then we can't miss it!"

"Hey, can you two stop talking nonsense?"

Mudan Luyan glanced at the two of them with dissatisfaction, then snorted coldly and walked towards the bathroom. "It must be a prank by someone, pouring red paint into the water tank, such a trick..."

As Mudan Luyan spoke, she lifted the lid of the water tank on the sink, wanting to check for evidence that someone had poured red paint into it.

But after opening the water tank lid, what came into view was clear water without a trace of red.

"It doesn't look like someone poured the paint..." Mudan Tsuyuhiko put the lid back, then looked at Maori Kogoro and asked, "Could it be that you have blood in your urine?"

"How is that possible!" Maori Kogoro complained, "I haven't even gone to the bathroom yet!!"

Meanwhile, Conan looked at Tang Ze calmly and asked, "How is it? Did you find anything?"

After facing all kinds of beatings from Tang Ze, Conan's mentality also became stronger. In this situation where there were no casualties, a mere haunting could not affect his mentality.

Moreover, he did not just read books in the field of criminal psychology, but also worked hard on subjects like physics and chemistry. After all, as a detective, one does not have to be proficient in any one subject, but must become a generalist involved in various fields.

So in this situation, although Conan cannot determine which specific chemical substance is causing the problem, it is enough to know the general idea.

But before Tang Ze could say anything, he suddenly heard the panicked shouts of the crowd.

Looking in the direction everyone was looking, what appeared before Tang Ze and Conan's eyes was an irregular ghost figure that was twisted and seemed to be burning, staring at everyone quietly outside the window with a weird smile.

“What…what is that!!”

“A ghost?!”

"Hehehe...Finally appeared!"

Banmachi Kikuji laughed as he walked towards the window and yanked it open. "This is the ghost of the woman who was tragically murdered in the park!!"

But as the other party suddenly opened the window, the terrifying figure on the window disappeared in an instant, and there was nothing outside the window.

“Disappeared…”

Kogoro Mouri couldn't help but feel suspicious when he saw the empty window, but he immediately reacted and expressed his disdain, saying that it was a prank by someone climbing in from outside.

The angry Kogoro Mouri walked towards the window and was about to flip over to the balcony, but after Mouri Kogoro took a step forward, he found that there was no balcony outside the window.

Amidst a chaotic scream, Kogoro Mori finally got back into the house, looking still frightened.

"How could this happen? There's no figure... just a silhouette swaying outside the window..."

Xiaolan described the scene she had seen with a frightened expression, "Just before the window was opened, the shadow slowly dissipated..."

"Is it like that feeling you see on TV, where evil spirits slowly turn into ashes when exposed to the morning sun?"

Old man Otonashi yawned, his sleepy face showing a calm expression. "I saw it in that window before... It was a very sad figure..."

Speaking of this, Mr. Otonashi sighed and said, "But it's only natural that it will turn into ashes... After all, Miss Tian Yuanlei was burned to death four years ago because of...but...her body was burned beyond recognition..."

Upon hearing this news, Tang Ze raised his eyebrows and thought to himself that the real show was finally here.

"Could you please tell me more about the details of this case?" Tang Ze asked.

"There's nothing much to say. Four years ago, Miss Tian Yuanlei was murdered by two men. Someone saw two men standing quietly beside the body in the park in the middle of the night, watching it burn..."

Old Man Otonashi stared out the window expressionlessly. "Later, the police found a barely legible driver's license from the charred body. They said the teeth matched and confirmed the identity..."

Perhaps it’s because the two criminals haven’t been apprehended that Miss Tian Yuanlei has become a vengeful spirit and is lingering nearby…”
