Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 602 Murderous, the focus is murderous

  The detectives are a little skeptical of "Kurozawa"'s claim.

   But he suddenly remembered that when everyone was tossing a coin just now, the copper-stained coin that exposed Qianjian's mother-in-law was far away from Qianjian's mother-in-law, but it was very close to this young man who called himself "Kurozawa".

   In other words, if the old and the young were really accomplices, then Kurosawa should have just picked up the patina coin that was closest to him just now. In this way, Qianjian's mother-in-law won't be exposed so early, and her "feigned death plan" can be hidden for a longer time.

   In reality, however, Kurosawa did not act like this at all... In this way, it should be true as he said, he was just an innocent passer-by who took a ride with a thousand grandmothers and accidentally strayed into the dinner party.

   Amuro Toru had a little more suspicion than the others.

The main reason is to suspect that the "terminally ill" is actually true - Matsuda's sudden aphasia when playing billiards, as well as skipping dinner, only holding a bowl of soup to drink, and after drinking for a long time, there is no less soup in the bowl... These manifestations seem to really be linked to "disease".

But on the other hand, judging from Matsuda's behavior, whether it was the act of hitting the billiard ball into the hole with precision or jumping off the balcony just now, he seems to be very stable and quite flexible, and "he is in the late stage of serious illness and waiting." death” is a far cry from the image.

  ... In short, to be on the safe side, what should be reminded is still to be reminded.

   Amuro Toru gently advised: "If you are sick, treat it. Now medical treatment is developing rapidly, and some diseases that were originally thought to be terminal illnesses are actually not that difficult to cure."

"...I said just now that terminal illness is just an excuse for a convenient ride." Jiang Xia, who was wearing a vest, decisively ignored Anshitou's brainstorming and brought the topic on the right track, "Let's think about the business. A slaughter scene gave her a 'proposal' - have you figured out your 'how to die'?"

  “…”

   A group of detectives listened to Jiang Xia's last words. Although he understood what he meant in his heart, for some reason, he suddenly felt a creepy feeling of being targeted by a cunning hunter. Guntian Yumei, who was dressed lightly and felt intuitive, even had a layer of goosebumps silently.

  ... Intuition makes them want to shake their heads immediately and reject this proposal, because it always feels like there is some other purpose hidden behind it.

   But thinking about it rationally, the words of the young man in black seem to have some truth.

  ——If the group of them went to ask questions, Qianjian’s mother-in-law might just keep her mouth shut and refuse to tell how to get out of here.

   On the contrary, put the old woman in a strong position, and she may instead answer the question triumphantly. After all, as Kurosawa said, "the way to escape from this mountain where there are many poisonous snakes without means of transportation and no signal" is barely a troublesome puzzle, and it is worth talking about .

  The detectives looked at each other.

   Finally made up his mind and nodded.

   Then I started to think about the "death method" suitable for myself and others when they "killed each other" for a while - each of them has seen many murder scenes, and they all love to read detective novels, so they can be regarded as experts in this field.

  …

   After a few simple exchanges.

   Considering that Qianjian's mother-in-law might be coming back soon, a group of people did not stay at the door. Instead, he intends to go back to the annex and put on a good show.

   Just as they grabbed the doorknob and were about to push the door.

Behind   , Kurosawa's voice suddenly sounded again.

In the tone of the young man, there was a subtle hint of joy, against the darkness of the night, and it looked a little creepy: "By the way, although everyone should know it, I still want to remind you -- don't underestimate a detective's insight, especially An old detective who has accumulated countless experiences and seen all kinds of life through his age.

   "Ordinary acting skills can't hide from her. Just like she can't hide from you that she is the real mastermind behind the scenes.

   "—In short, please be sure to kill each other with sincerity, and release your killing intent from the bottom of your heart."

  “…”

  Amuro frowned unconsciously when he heard the last sentence.

  Although there is no evidence to prove that this person is Matsuda, but looking at a familiar face and saying such words of instigation, I always feel a little awkward.

   Although the other detectives were not familiar with this face, they were equally uncomfortable——I don’t know why, but I always felt that Kurosawa had said so much, and only the last sentence “I hope you really want to kill each other” is the point.

   Moreover, compared to Qianjian's mother-in-law, why do I always feel that from the sense of mystery to the temperament, Kurosawa himself is more in line with the image of "behind the scenes"...

   However, after all, this was just an unfounded speculation, and was quickly put aside by the detectives who focused on evidence.

   Compared to this... Kurosawa's reminder is like questioning their acting skills.

   "Don't underestimate the detectives." The detectives snorted coldly and quickly lowered their faces into the play, "We are all professionals."

   "Black Ze" smiled at them, the aggression and provocation in his tone disappeared like a phantom.

   He nodded and said in a friendly tone, "I hope so."

  …

   A large number of elderly Qianjian mother-in-law are actually stronger than they look.

  Although her legs were a little numb after squatting in the grass for a while because of her old age, she couldn't keep up with the three young people just now, but she quickly followed the mountain road and walked all the way back to the Dusk House.

   When she got to the place, she did not enter through the main entrance, but went in along the wall, carefully avoiding the area with lights, and went straight to the secret room hidden between the two floors, and hid in it.

  The secret room is 30 to 40 square meters, and there are countless display screens in it, which is a special monitoring room.

  ——A few days ago, Qianjian mother-in-law and food detective secretly installed countless surveillance cameras in the annex. This secret room was also discovered during the two treasure hunts. Disappointingly, there was no treasure in the secret room, but at least it gave them a suitable place to hide.

  …

   Qianjian-in-law entered the secret room, closed the door here, pulled out the chair and sat down.

   She glanced at several monitors and quickly stopped on one of them.

   This monitor is connected to a camera located in the lobby.

   Qianjian's mother-in-law pushed the glasses on the bridge of her nose and watched the surveillance screen carefully.

   As soon as she left, a group of detectives seemed to have roughly searched the annex, and they were arguing in the hall at this time.

   - With the food detective and her "killed", the tension in the annex is finally ignited, and the detectives can no longer be as calm as before.

   However, it seems that there are still people trying to keep the peace.

  ——In the surveillance footage, the "Kurozawa" she brought reluctantly persuaded the fight: "Stop arguing. Rather than doubting your own people, the host who doesn't know where to hide is the most suspicious person."
