Chapter 3050 3062 [Strange Fan Group] Asking for monthly votes ()
Before leaving, Mr. Yonehara remembered something and looked at the other male teacher: "Although the doors and windows can be locked, it is still too dangerous for Mr. Shimoda to stay in the room alone. Why don't you go and accompany him."
"This..." The male teacher was a little hesitant, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed safer for two grown men to stay together, so he nodded, "Okay."
After everyone was assigned their tasks, the dead silent villa became lively again.
…
After a while, on the 2nd floor.
The curly-haired man locked the doors and windows tightly. He sat on the bed and hugged his head in pain: "I'm the next one. No, no, I can't die yet..."
He was mumbling some meaningless words when suddenly, the cell phone next to him rang.
The curly-haired man stared at his phone and carefully picked it up.
…
A potential victim huddled alone in a room, shivering.
Downstairs, Jiang Xia stood at the door, watching Conan, who was only wearing a single layer of clothes, walking around in the snow, and couldn't help but be curious: "Aren't you cold?"
The Snow Girl also clung to Jiang Xia's shoulders, staring at Conan with curious eyes, as if she was wondering whether this was the Snow Girl companion she was looking for.
It would have been a good thing if he didn't say anything. As soon as he mentioned the word "cold", Conan suddenly felt the cold wind from all directions rushing into his collar. He shivered and quickly ran back to the door.
"Is the murderer really an outsider?" The mini detective sneezed while thinking about the case:
"When Mr. Sugiyama's body was lying at the door and ringing the doorbell, everyone else was indeed inside the house... But if it was an outsider who committed the crime, there were no related footprints or tire tracks around the villa. This is too strange."
But speaking of ruts…
Conan suddenly discovered something strange - the handrail of the steps outside the door was covered with snow, but at the outer end of the handrail, there was a missing piece of the thick snow. There were two long and thin marks on the top of the two wooden columns.
As I was watching with a frown on my face, a voice came from the corridor. Teacher Yonehara poked his head in with a tray in his hand: "What are you two doing standing at the door? Come and have some coffee. If you don't like coffee, I've made some hot chocolate."
There was a gust of cold wind at the door, which really needed a hot drink to neutralize it. The two detectives closed the door and returned to the house.
When I walked back to the restaurant, I suddenly heard a broken shout from the guest room upstairs: "I'm so annoyed! Leave me alone, I want to be alone!"
Jiang Xia walked to the stairs and looked up, and saw Teacher Nakamura standing at the door of the guest room with a cup of coffee and a troubled look on his face.
Noticing someone coming downstairs, she turned around and complained, "Shimoda still won't let me in."
"Then forget about him." Teacher Yonehara remembered the personality of the curly-haired male teacher, shook his head, and walked to the second floor, "Let's go back to the room, remember to lock the door, and don't open it if anyone knocks."
Downstairs, Jiang Xia's cell phone suddenly rang.
He glanced at the caller ID and found that it was Huibara Ai calling, and immediately understood: "You also went to check the information with Professor Agasa?"
Huihara Ai hummed, a little worried: "I read the news reports about your journey, as well as the news from the fan group. It seems that you have met a lot of sasaeng fans?"
"..." Jiang Xia was silent for a moment, thinking of the mixed group, "There aren't that many, and they aren't illegitimate fans - the messages in the fan group are all messy, just take a look, don't take it seriously."
"That's good." Huihara Ai breathed a sigh of relief, then said, "The doctor and I found the file folder you mentioned - there haven't been many murders at Beido Elementary School, but there has been one suicide."
"Three years ago, a female student from Beihu Primary School hanged herself in the ballet club's classroom. I heard that she chose to commit suicide because she couldn't bear the pressure of the exam. Her class teacher at the time was also attacked by many people because of this."
Conan stood on the stair railing, eavesdropping on Jiang Xia's phone. Hearing this, he couldn't help but ask, "What's the name of that class teacher?"
"I don't know. It's not written here." Huihara Ai flipped through the information. "There's only the name of the child who died. She was in the sixth grade, class 2, and her name was Mochizuki Minako."
"Minako?" Conan and Jiang Xia looked at each other and realized one thing: this student's name was pronounced "minako" - exactly the letters written on the backs of the hands of the three victims!
"ah--!!"
Before I had time to think about it, a terrified scream suddenly came from the second floor.
Huiyuan Ai was stunned when she heard this, and then she understood something: "You are..."
Jiang Xia responded: "I'll go take a look first, and we'll talk later."
With that he hung up the phone and ran upstairs with the anxious pupil.
…
As soon as I stepped onto the stairs, I saw a person sitting at the door of the guest room on the left.
Teacher Nakamura moved back weakly, and suddenly found someone coming up the stairs. She quickly said to Jiang Xia as if grasping at a life-saving straw: "Inside, inside..."
Jiang Xia stopped beside her and looked into the room. He happened to meet a pair of terrified eyes - the curly-haired man fell from the bed and died in a rather strange posture beside the bed. There was an obvious mark of strangulation on his neck, which seemed to be the same cause of death as that of Mr. Sugiyama.
"What happened?!" Others also ran over in surprise, and soon, seeing the fresh corpses in the room, they screamed even more.
In the chaos, Jiang Xia walked into the room and looked around: "The murder weapon is gone."
Conan also noticed this. While the others were still confused, he quickly slipped into other rooms on the second floor and searched around, but did not find any ropes in anyone's bag.
It took the other three teachers a long time to come back to their senses. They looked at the strangled body and said, "In other words, the murderer ran away with the murder weapon after committing the crime?"
Jiang Xia shook his head: "Conan and I were standing at the stairs just now, and we didn't see anyone coming downstairs."
"!" The three teachers' faces changed slightly, "Could the murderer be hiding on this floor?!"
"Probably not." Conan relied on the fact that he was a child to justify trespassing. "I just checked the other rooms on the second floor - there is no murderer, and there is no murder weapon."
"You little brat..." The teachers were a little angry when they heard that their rooms were being looked at.
However, with the murder taking place, no one cared about this.
The reporter who appeared out of nowhere touched his chin and smiled sinisterly at the three teachers: "The murderer committed the crime on the second floor, but he didn't come down from the second floor - there were only three of you on the second floor at the time, so it seems that the murderer is among you."
The male teacher's heart skipped a beat, and he pointed at him and asked, "Why do you say that? Are you completely free of suspicion?"
