Detectives of Detective World
Chapter 1287: The legend of magic dog
I have to say that with the pronunciation of the old man's aging voice, matching the content of the other party's speech and the buildings towering in the forest in the distance, it really feels like driving in a horror movie.
But it's a pity that the three people in the car are all "materialist fighters" who don't believe in ghosts and ghosts at all.
They only believe that all ghosts and gods are either caused by human beings or are natural phenomena of nature.
So the mansion cursed by the "magic dog" sounds scary, but the three of them had no waves in their hearts, and after thanking them, they accelerated to the Inubushu family's mansion.
It has to be said that the Inufushi family is indeed rich enough, and this mansion built on the mountainside looks so tall that it looks like the place where the ancient city lord lived.
The car went up the mountain, and soon approached Inufushi's castle, but Tang Ze suddenly saw the warning sign on the side of the road, and couldn't help stepping on the brakes to slowly reduce the speed of the car.
"What's wrong?" Hattori Heiji, who was talking to Conan in the back row, couldn't help asking when the car stopped slowly.
"There was a warning sign next to it just now. Didn't you see it when you were talking to Conan?" Tang Ze parked the car, opened the door and said, "Go down and see the situation."
"Okay." Hearing this, Hattori Heiji unfastened his seat belt, got out of the car with Tang Ze and walked towards the direction of the sign ahead.
"It's actually a cliff..."
Conan looked at the edge of the mountain road where the wire was simply used as a protective fence, and couldn't help but rejoice: "Fortunately, Criminal Tang Ze noticed it, otherwise it would be really dangerous."
"Hey, the cliff over there is very dangerous, the road is here."
Just as the three of them were looking at the cliff in front of them and rejoicing, suddenly there was the sound of the engine of a small motorcycle and a female voice shouting from behind.
Everyone turned their heads and found that a young woman in a pink and purple suit stopped behind her, took off her helmet and said, "Don't go too close there, someone fell off the cliff and died not long ago."
"Falling off the cliff? Are you referring to the Uncle Yingci who was chased by the magic dog?"
Hattori Heiji was surprised when he heard this, and immediately explained: "Actually, we came here from Tokyo to Gunma just to investigate this matter."
"Eh? Do you know Brother Yingci?"
The woman froze for a moment, and then introduced herself: "I am the person you are looking for, and my name is Xing Ji."
"I didn't expect to see the relevant people here." Hattori Heiji was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Then please take us to Inufushi's house."
After speaking, Hattori Heiji also seemed to realize that he did not answer the other party's question, so he quickly explained: "In addition, we don't know Mr. Hotaruji. It was Mr. Shinichi who found us through his relationship and asked us to help investigate."
"Is that brother Shinichi?" Inufushi Yukihime was stunned when he heard that, and then looked at the three of them with a smile and asked, "I don't know how Shinichi is doing in Tokyo?"
"Not really."
Tang Ze shook his head and said, "He was almost killed today, if we hadn't gone in time."
"Ah! How did this happen!" Inufushi Yukihime was shocked when he heard this: "Then how is Brother Shinichi doing now?"
"Still in a coma, the doctor said that he is not out of danger yet and needs to be observed."
Tang Ze replied: "Originally we asked Mr. Shinichi to understand the situation, but when this happened, we had no choice but to come here in person."
"So that's how it is." Inubushi Yukihime nodded slightly, and said anxiously, "I have to tell other people about this quickly."
"It shouldn't be too late, let's go." Tang Ze heard the words: "Please lead the way."
Yukihime Inuboshi nodded when he heard the words, and after putting on the motorcycle helmet, the car and motorcycle led the way up the mountain.
"It seems that the people of the Inufushi family don't know that Mr. Shinichi was murdered by the murderer."
After sitting in the car, Hattori Heiji's eyes flickered with thought: "This is a good opportunity..."
"Are you saying to use this news to see other people's reactions?"
Conan nodded knowingly and said: "It is indeed a good way, because Mr. Shinichi was not killed, so the police did not notify the family.
In this way, the prisoner will definitely not know that his plan has been destroyed by us, and we can take the opportunity to observe everyone's reaction. "
On the other hand, Tang Ze, listening to the conversation between the two, did not join in, and deep down in his heart, he didn't have much hope.
After all, in the absence of key evidence, all prisoners have "Little Golden Man BUFF". The more serious the crime is, the more natural the acting bonus will be.
Therefore, if he wanted to rely on everyone's reactions to select prisoners, even if Tang Ze had mastered the micro-expressions, he still had no expectations.
While the three were talking, the car followed the motorcycle ahead and stopped in front of the castle halfway up the mountain.
"It's amazing." After getting off the car, Hattori Heiji looked up at the towering mansion and said, "It's like a castle in ancient times."
"Yeah, even people who live around here call this place, Inubushi Castle." Inubushi Yukihime explained with a smile.
"Yeah, looking at this castle, it doesn't look like a mansion cursed by the "magic dog"."
Just as Conan's words fell, a low whine and a strong aggressive bark came from behind.
"Wow! Wow!"
The three turned their heads subconsciously after hearing the dog barking, only to find an Akita dog standing behind them.
"No way, Xiaoba!"
Seeing the running Akita Inu, Inufushi Yukihime quickly smiled and squatted down, stroking the other's head and said, "These people are here to investigate Brother Yingji's accident and his friends."
"Want Want!"
The Akita Inu seemed to understand Inufushi Yukihime's words, and responded by barking twice.
"This is what you did wrong, Yukihime!"
At this moment, the gate of Inuboshi Castle opened suddenly, and a short-haired woman came out with her arms akimbo: "When the dog is barking, you can't directly call its name, and even touch its head!
In that case, it will make it misunderstand that it is praising its behavior, and it will be even worse next time!
How many times do you have to tell me to remember this! "
"Holding, I'm sorry...Miss Kako..." Inufushi Yukihime looked at the woman and apologized quickly.
"Speaking of which, Mr. Criminal, what's the matter here?"
Inufu Kaozi looked at Tang Ze and the others beside him and said: "Before, there were criminals who came to investigate, and it was confirmed that it was an accident, and finally went back to close the case."
"The main reason is that another case happened, and this time Mr. Shinichi was the victim." Tang Ze explained, "So we want to come here to understand the situation."
"What!? Mr. Shinichi?" Quanfu Kaozi was shocked when he heard this: "How could this happen?"
Seeing this, Yukihime Inufushi on the side quickly ran to the other party, and whispered what he had learned before to Kaoko Inufushi.
"So that's the case, it's fine, thank you for your help." Inufu Kaozi bowed to the three of them and thanked them.
"It's fine."
Tang Ze waved his hand, looked at the other party and asked, "By the way, I want to ask about Mr. Shinichi, is there anything worth paying attention to?"
"Speaking of which, Mr. Shinichi did say before leaving this company that someone seems to use the cursed "flame dog" to make Inubussu's family die."
When Quanfu Kaozi mentioned this, he denied it: "But the curse does not exist at all, so please don't worry.
Even Mr. Shinichi, he was murdered, right? This proves that it was man-made, not some non-existent "magic dog", right? "
"That's right." Tang Ze smiled and praised: "Ms. Kaozi, you are very sensible."
"Of course, I will never agree with such rumors." Quanfu Kaozi snorted coldly: "Besides, if such words reach the ears of the adoptive mother, it will make her too sad."
"Is Ms. Suchen living here too?" Tang Ze couldn't help asking after hearing what Quanfu Kaozi said, "I thought she should be living in the hospital."
"The adoptive mother lives here."
Inubushi Yukihime said that her expression was a little downcast: "It's just that she has been in a coma all the time, and basically has no way to communicate."
"Anyway, please follow me into the house first." Inufu Kaozi signaled everyone to follow her into the house: "I will take you to visit mother."
Everyone followed Inufu Kaoko into the castle, and led by the other party to Ms. Suchen's room.
Although it was said to be a visit, it was actually just going to the other party's room to look at the unconscious Ms. Sachen, and there was no way to communicate.
"She has a cerebral embolism, and she has been in this state since she fell ill last month."
After knowing the reason for everyone's visit, the doctor from Inuboshi's family checked the body of Ms. Suchen, and at the same time told Tang Ze and others about the other party's situation:
"Actually, based on her current physical condition, hospitalization is the best way, but she is getting old, so she finally decided to stay at home to take care of her."
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man wearing glasses said: "I forgot to introduce myself, I am Chihuang Inufushi, and I am currently working in Inufushi Hospital."
"Looking at the name, you seem to be one of the eight adopted sons of the Inufushi family?" After hearing the man's self-introduction, Tang Ze smiled and said, "I thought you were the family doctor of the Inufushi family."
"Now I'm still holding this position."
Inufushi Chiaki smiled and said, "It was because the hospital I worked in closed down suddenly, and when I didn't know what to do, it was my adoptive mother who reached out to save me."
"Then I don't know, did Ms. Sasumi mention who she thinks is the fake adopted son or adopted daughter?" Hattori Heiji asked.
"That uncle named Shinichi is actually a counterfeit among us, right?"
At this moment, the wooden door of the empty room was opened, and a man in his thirties with a beard said indignantly: "The kind of traitor who was the first to escape from Inuboshi's house because he was afraid of the unfounded "magic dog" rumors!"
"What are you talking about, Mr. Zenya!"
When Quanfu Kaozi heard the other party's unceremonious questioning, he couldn't help scolding: "Mr. Shinichi was attacked by someone today, and now his life is hanging by a thread in the hospital for rescue.
Moreover, this is in front of the adoptive mother, don't say such rude words, the adoptive mother will be sad if she hears it! "
"She won't hear it." Inufuchan also smiled nonchalantly: "Anyway, he has been falling asleep all the time, without any consciousness."
"It seems that one is missing."
Conan looked around at the few people around and said: "The two who died, and Mr. Shinichi who is in a coma in Tokyo.
Inufushi's family should have five adopted children, but here are only Ms. Yukihime, Ms. Kako, Mr. Chiaki, and Mr. Zenya, and one is missing. "
"Where did that person go?" Hattori Heiji's expression became serious.
After all, the criminals had committed crimes in Tokyo before, and they didn't know their itinerary, so naturally they wouldn't hurry back.
If the other party returned leisurely, then the remaining one who didn't show up would be very suspicious.
"The one who hasn't arrived is Miss Zuoji." Inufu Kaozi, the older leader of Yin Yin, explained: "She went to a dry cleaner far away, and she left the dry cleaning clothes there before she went."
"Then wait for Sister Zuoji to come back, let's have a cup of tea." After hearing the conversation between the two, Inufushi Yukihime said with a smile: "After all, if everyone is not here, you can't ask anything. "
"If not, how about I tell you about the origin of the "Legend of the Magic Dog" passed down from generation to generation by the Inufushi family?" Inufukuzen on the side also said meaningfully.
"origin?"
After Tang Ze heard what the other party said, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows and said: "It seems that the legend about "Magic Dog" didn't spread after the previous two accidents.
According to you, it seems that this kind of legend has been around for a long time? "
"Of course, it is not an exaggeration to say that it has been since ancient times." Inufuzen also smiled.
"Then listen carefully." Tang Ze said with an expression of interest on his face.
During the conversation, the sun was gradually setting, and the chilly mountain wind was blowing the trees in the forest, and there was an endless clattering sound.
In such a quiet and slightly weird environment, the legend of the magic dog slowly unfolded.
That happened in the Meiji era. On that day, the only daughter of the Inubushi family suddenly disappeared. The Inufushi family mobilized all their staff and even nearby villagers to search for it in the mountains.
But no matter what, the missing only daughter of the Inufushi family was never found. When the head of the Inufushi family was desperate, he suddenly saw the dying only daughter in his mouth by the dog of the Inufushi family.
Seeing this scene, the owner of the Dog Fushi was furious, beat the dog's body with a whip, and finally burned it to vent his anger.
However, from the mouth of the daughter who woke up later, the head of the Inubusu family got the truth of the matter.
It turned out that she was lost and exhausted in the mountains, but fortunately she was found and rescued by a dog.
In other words, that dog was not the culprit who put her in danger, but the benefactor who saved her life.
After hearing the news, the owner of Inuboshi felt very remorseful, and finally built a very majestic tomb for the dog.
However, not long after that incident, a fire broke out in Inufushi Castle, and only the head of the Inufushi family was burned to death because it was too late to escape.
And since then, there have been rumors that the Inubush family was cursed by the flame dog.
