Chapter 195 The Mystery of the Ten Rabbits (Part 1)
Ryoko Koide is holding a cute little rabbit doll, but its left hand and left ear have been violently torn, revealing the white cotton inside.
"Hello, Koide-kun, we are the Junior Detective League. Is there anything we can help you with? We'll do our best to assist you!"
Mitsuhiko patted his chest and assured him, his face flushed with the sight of the cute girl.
Ryoko Koide lowered her eyes, looking at them somewhat timidly, then raised the rabbit doll in her hand, "It's this..."
"Huh? Do you want us to sew the doll back together for you?" Genta scratched his head, looking confused.
“No…no!” Ryoko Koide shook her head. “I wanted to ask you to help me find the person who sent me the plush toy.”
"Wasn't it sent by someone that Xiaode knows?" Ayumi asked crisply.
"I don't know who sent them to me, but every single one I received was a rabbit plush toy, and... and every single one of them was broken..."
As Ryoko Koide spoke, a look of fear appeared on her face.
"Can I take a look at the doll?" Conan stepped forward and pointed to the rabbit in her hand.
“Okay.” Ryoko Koide nodded and handed the doll to him.
Conan unzipped the puppets on the back of the doll, reached inside and felt around, then pulled out a note.
"There are words on it!" Genta exclaimed in surprise.
With a bored look in his half-moon eyes, Kawasaki glanced at Ai Haibara, who had also joined in, and then, in order to appear as part of the group, he also moved in.
The note contained a very strange sentence—
"Ryoko, are you the fifth rabbit?"
Conan read it aloud, then frowned, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
"The fifth rabbit? What does that mean?" Ayumi scratched her cheek in confusion.
"When the big rabbit got sick, the second rabbit went to see him, the third rabbit bought medicine, the fourth rabbit brewed it, the fifth rabbit died mysteriously, the sixth rabbit carried him, the seventh rabbit dug a hole with his head down, and the eighth rabbit came to bury him..."
Suddenly, a terrifying nursery rhyme echoed through the quiet classroom, and the timid Ayumi instantly felt a chill run down her spine and moved even closer to Conan.
The others turned to look at Machi Kawasaki, who was singing the creepy nursery rhyme.
The latter raised an eyebrow innocently, "Haven't you heard this nursery rhyme before?"
"You just said that Five Rabbits died mysteriously?"
Conan instantly grasped the key point and glanced down at the words on the note in his hand.
Kawasaki Machi nodded. "Yes, that's how the nursery rhyme goes."
Conan's mood instantly turned heavy. He looked up at Ryoko Koide and asked, "Could you take us to your house to see your other rabbit plush toys?"
Ryoko Koide was also startled by the nursery rhyme and turned pale. She only came to her senses when Conan asked her question and nodded, "Of... of course."
"Let's not delay, let's go now!"
As they spoke, they ran out.
Only Kawakami Machi followed behind, howling silently.
Ah! What are you doing! Why are you running again?!
Several elementary school students arrived at Ryoko Koide's house and found that no one else was home.
But they didn't pay much attention, assuming that her parents were at work and hadn't come home yet.
Ryoko Koide led them to her room, and as soon as she opened the door, she saw ten neatly arranged rabbit plush toys!
Each rabbit had a different expression. The first rabbit had its eyes closed, the second rabbit looked worried, the third rabbit had sweat dripping from its forehead, and the fourth rabbit looked serious.
