Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 603 The Kind Uzo

After persuading for a while, seeing that the detectives were still at war, Kurosawa sighed sadly:

"When we searched the annex just now, we couldn't find any suspicious person, which doesn't really explain anything—the host may have noticed our movements, so he hid in the mountains in advance.

"In addition, we were a group of people conducting the investigation just now, and this annex occupies a very large area. The organizer who is familiar with the terrain can play a game of hide-and-seek with us... Well, rather than quarreling, it is better to close all the doors and windows first. Lock it, and then search again. This time, you can divide into at least two teams and start searching from several different directions."

In a dark secret room.

Through the screen, Granny Qianjian watched Kurosawa, the "terminally ill patient" struggling to fight, her eyes softened a little: she was indeed a person who was about to die, and her mentality was indeed different from those ordinary people who were full of desires.

It's a pity that no matter how hard you struggle, it's useless - the fuse has been ignited by two lives, and it's impossible to stop.If Kurosawa continues to block it, he will only become a victim among these people...

However, he had planned to commit suicide.Better to die a dramatic death with so many detectives than die alone in the mountains.Thinking of this, Granny Qianjian's aching conscience suddenly didn't hurt so much.

"..." Speaking of which, judging from the "proposal" Heisawa said in the hall, it was indeed right to agree to give this young man a ride.

Because the suggestions made by laymen will only help more and more.

——In a situation of mutual suspicion like the current one, if everyone acts in unison, it will be considered suspicious, because they can always see each other, and that kind of doubt will be limited to a certain extent because of "seeing is believing" Inside.

But once the action is dispersed, each other is out of sight of the other...

The human imagination is powerful, especially in such tense and life-threatening moments.

After separation, because they can't see what the other party is doing, the detectives' suspicions will only continue to magnify... In the end, someone will take the lead in some aggressive self-defense actions in order to protect themselves, and those actions will once again become a source of panic for others. In the end, the sparks burned into a sea of ​​blood, burning all life here.

…In the tense situation of life, some people will go blank.But this group of detectives is different. They should be able to awaken their potential and solve the mystery of the treasure when the deadline is approaching...

Of course, for Granny Qianjian herself, what she looks forward to the most is that the detectives are forced into a desperate situation and before they die, they can leave secrets about the treasure on the ground like writing a death message... According to the habit of detectives, If you solve the riddle, but can only die with the answer, it will be a kind of extreme pain.In this way, she doesn't need to do anything...

Under Qianjian's mother-in-law's thoughtful gaze.

on the monitor screen.

In the hall, those detectives who were much younger than Granny Qianjian and relatively "inexperienced" seemed to fail to foresee the danger of splitting up.

They didn't seem to want to act together with the suspicious person, but when they heard Kurosawa's suggestion, they all nodded in agreement and began to group themselves.

……

in the hall.

Wearing the vest of "Kurosawa Zuo", Jiang Xia had an impromptu break-up.

Afterwards, seeing the detectives "accepting the suggestion" and walking away in twos and threes, he himself chose a random direction and walked towards the long corridor beside him.

Just two steps away, I suddenly heard footsteps behind me.

Looking back, I saw Toru Amuro and "Jiang Xia" also followed, and they seemed to form a group with him naturally.

"..."

Jiang Xia remembered the ubiquitous surveillance, and nodded towards them like a hospitable person.

Then a team of three began to search the annex seriously.

……

I searched the rooms from room to room, but I still couldn't find where the "organizer" was hiding.

Halfway through the search, after pushing open a wooden door in the middle of the corridor, the three emotionless search machines paused for a moment.

——Different from those guest rooms with a few sets, there is no common sofa or other furniture in this room. Instead, there is a striking grand piano.This appears to be a piano room.

The three of them were slightly startled, turned on the light, and instead of just passing by with a glance like before, they entered the room to have a look.

"Playing a massacre drama" is of course the main goal at this stage.

But at the same time, there is another important thing - treasure hunting.

...Everyone has curiosity, not to mention part-time detectives and phantom thieves.

Toru Amuro and Kidd were equally curious about the "treasure" in this annex that killed countless people.

According to experience, the key to solve the puzzle is often hidden in the special room in front of you.

……

It didn't take long to go in, and it really paid off.

Jiang Xia walked to the piano, seemingly habitually wanting to press the keys.

But after reaching out his hand, he suddenly said "Huh?", paused his fingers slightly, and turned to the other side.

——At one end of the piano, between the two keys, there is an old and yellowed piece of paper.

Jiang Xia picked up the brittle piece of paper and carefully unfolded it for inspection.

In the crackling sound, the two temporary teammates next to him noticed his new discovery, and they also approached and looked over.

I saw a few familiar words written on the paper.

It was the prompt given to them by the host just now:

[Two travelers looked up at the sky at night, the devil came to the castle; the king fled with the treasure, the princess shed the Holy Grail in tears, begging for forgiveness, the soldier swung his sword and killed himself, blood stained the earth]
"..."

Toru Amuro raised his hand, stroked the paper, and sniffed it closer: "It seems to be weathered naturally, it has existed for a long time - it seems that the 'hint' given to us by the organizer is actually from the predecessors. What was left behind. The host couldn’t figure it out by himself, so he threw it to us intact.”

Kidd, dressed as Jiang Xia, felt the same way, and wanted to laugh at the old lady hiding behind the scenes.

But thinking about it now, he is wearing Jiang Xia's skin.And according to Kidd's rough investigation, Jiang Xia seems to seldom make similar moves...

He finally swallowed the words silently, just nodded slightly, politely echoing the boss next to him.

……

While new clues were found, they hadn't made much progress on the treasure hunt because of the hints they'd already had at the dinner party.

Amuro Toru and Kidd are planning to check around again.If there are no new clues, go to the next room and continue searching.

However, before he could act, "Kurosawa" looked away from the paper.

Then he thought for a moment, walked around to the side of the piano, and looked at the piano cover from another angle:
"There is a wet stain here, and it's not moldy. It doesn't look like a water stain that has accumulated over the years...It should be that someone else came here just now and sprayed something on it."
