Chapter 603 Kurosawa, you are Kidd, right?
Several detectives recalled the sincere words of the young man in black just now, "Several detectives seem to advocate violence. I'm worried that they will abuse lynching or even kill people to vent their anger", and "Detectives are very good at destroying corpses and evading legal punishment" and similar words, and they all fell silent.
...Although in the current scenario, this can be seen as Kurosawa deliberately saying that in order to gain the empathy of Chiken and let her relax her guard.
But combined with what happened before, when Granny Chijian was not around, Kurosawa said very casually "you detectives", "you detectives"... I always feel that this kid seems to have some opinions about detectives, and vaguely disdains to be associated with detectives.
With this attitude...could Kurosawa really be Kaito Kid?
The detectives who were not very familiar with Jiangxia always felt that "Hei Ze" in the restaurant was very suspicious, but they had no evidence at the moment.
…
A group of people were very concerned about the situation in the restaurant.
But considering this was what seemed to be a crucial moment in the standoff, they didn't look at it much.
The detectives were attracted by the clanging sound of gold falling to the ground, so they instinctively stole a glance at the place where the huge noise came from, and then quickly retracted their heads.
…
In the restaurant.
Jiang Xia waited for a while, but saw no murderous intent.
He looked at the dazed Grandma Qianjian, and remembered the shadow he had just glimpsed through the crack in the door. He decided to get down to business and pay the detectives the rewards they deserved after their murderous rage.
As agreed before, Jiang Xia interrupted Qianjian Jiangdai's contemplation and asked:
"Okay, I've told you the answer to the treasure, now it's your turn to fulfill your promise and tell me how to leave here.
"I have no interest in treasure, and I am too lazy to leave here. But I am really curious.
"——There is no means of transportation here, the bridge is broken, and there are poisonous snakes everywhere. How are you going to get us out of this isolated island deep in the mountains that is like a secret room?"
The detective outside the door heard this and nodded secretly.
The word "secret room" was refreshing. Even these tired "corpses" became more energetic.
...Although Kurosawa doesn't seem to like detectives, he seems to know a lot about detectives... Tsk, he's becoming more and more like Kid.
Also, speaking of this, there is the poker incident just now.
——Just now, when Granny Chiken asked Kurosawa "Why do you know the cards", the detectives also communicated silently with gestures.
No one remembered that there were "King of Diamonds" and "Queen of Hearts" in the deck. Even Gunda Ikumi and the Cowboy Detective who were playing cards had no memory of these two cards. However, the young man in black "remembered" these two cards that had never appeared in front of anyone...
"..." They had reason to suspect that this was because Kidd or his helpers had visited the place beforehand, but unfortunately there was no evidence - if I remembered correctly, the camera in the living room was right behind the cowboy detective, and the tall detective sat in front of the card table, blocking the table tightly, and it was impossible to see what the cards on it looked like from the surveillance camera.
However, the detectives thought again, even if there was no evidence that Kidd had tampered with the annex, if they could get the method of leaving from Granny Chiken and escape successfully, they would have to catch "Kurosawa" in a place where it would be difficult to escape, tear off his face, and send him directly to the police station after tearing off his disguise... Even if the evidence was not enough to arrest him, at least they had to remember his appearance, so that it would be easier to arrest him in the future.
"Jiang Xia", who was mixed in with the detectives, suddenly felt a little cold.
He shuddered, turned his head to look at the building that seemed to be leaking air, and secretly moved into the crowd, using the bodies of his opponents to block the wind.
…
In the room.
After all, Qianjian Jiangdai has been a detective for decades, and he is also very sensitive to words such as "secret room" that represent mystery.
She sobered up a little and turned her eyes away from the golden clock.
Then he looked at Jiang Xia, smiled, and shook his head:
"I'm sorry, but I don't know how to leave either - from the beginning, I planned to spend my life here.
"But just now, the 'host' said in the tape that this mountain is full of poisonous snakes and it is impossible to travel. In fact, it was a lie. Originally, Da Shang Zhu Shan and I did find a way to get a batch of poisonous snakes, but at that time we were impatient and inevitably didn't think carefully. The snakes were not properly raised and all died. At that time, the invitation letter had already been sent out, and it was too late to buy new ones.
"In short, people who are strong and have the courage to risk being bitten to death and step into the mountains may indeed survive in the wilderness and escape as Brother Mogi said. But...
She looked at Jiang Xia who was sitting in the dining chair: "If you didn't lie about your physical condition, then I'm afraid you are destined to die with me."
Jiang Xia sighed and lowered his eyes: "It seems that this is the only way." ... Let this old woman who is rich in murderous intent be happy one last time, and then a group of detectives suddenly jump out to give her a surprise, she might be willing to recover some vitality and let the murderous intent emerge again?
“…”
Across the street, Chikan always felt that the young man in black was mysterious. Just now, she had said, "Only those who are in good health can leave." She thought Kurosawa would stand up and say something like, "You didn't expect that, I was lying to you."
...But that's not the case.
“……”Is it true that I’m in poor health?
Are those things mentioned above that seem too coincidental and suspicious really just coincidences?
Qianjian Jiangdai was silent for a moment, and his conscience began to hurt a little.
She also sighed with Jiang Xia, half to comfort him, half to comfort herself: "However, you originally planned to come to the mountains to commit suicide. Now that you two die together, maybe you will feel better. Grandma doesn't have anything else, but she has a lot of stories. If you want to listen..."
"Don't bother."
A voice suddenly came from behind.
Accompanied by the sound of footsteps that sounded a bit chaotic.
Qianjian Jiangdai was shocked: ...Someone? !
And it sounds like there is more than one!
She turned around quickly and was shocked to see a row of "corpses" standing at the door of the study.
Those detectives who "died with hatred" one by one unexpectedly came back to life one by one. Now they are standing at the door of the restaurant covered in blood. The gust of wind brought by the door being pushed open whets people's appetite... huh?
...Why does it smell like ketchup?
Wait, ketchup...
Qianjian Jiangdai remembered something and his face suddenly changed.
She suddenly understood: "You have already discovered that there is something wrong with me?!"
"Humph, you underestimate your peers." The cowboy detective looked at the familiar old woman, lit a cigarette for himself comfortably, and then raised a finger and shook it, "Forget about seeing through your poor disguise. Even if we can only find a way out by ourselves, we have at least a hundred ways to leave here."
