Famous Detective Conan: Eating and Waiting To Die

Chapter 29: Sherlock Holmes Murder (1)

In a moving minivan, Maori Hitomi was bored playing the game console, while the people in the car were enthusiastically discussing about Sherlock Holmes, what was the first work of Sherlock Holmes, what is your favorite? Which step, etc., in the end, a guy asked Mouri Kogoro what he liked. .

Kogoro Mori, who had never seen Sherlock Holmes, mentioned another writer's work, and the person in the car muttered, "How can such a layman come to our party?"

Hitomi Maori, who was playing the game console, raised her head, "Don't you like reasoning? Then you can guess why those of us who don't like Sherlock Holmes came to participate in your event?"

Mao Litong's words were very cold, and in combination with his murderous aura, the people in Cheshan suddenly became quiet, and a middle-aged man named Teng Chi who was sitting next to Maori Xiaogoro smiled awkwardly, "That little kid is very I like Sherlock Holmes, so I guess you are afraid that he will come by himself, so come with him."

Hitomi Mori glanced at the guy, "Yes, it seems that you haven't read Sherlock Holmes's book for nothing..." After that, he continued to play the game console.

After Hitomi Mouri's disturbance, the atmosphere in the car became a bit cold, and no one was talking. Conan put his hand in and looked at Hitomi Mouri who was playing the game console, "Little Hitomi is also really, it's okay to have common knowledge with these ordinary people..."

"Welcome to this villa McLafferty, I am the organizer of this event, Jin Gu, and everyone gathered here today is carefully selected by me to participate in the Sherlock Fall model detective trip. The lucky one in the group?"

Jin Gu, who was about to speak, heard someone in the crowd say, "Are these people really carefully selected? In my opinion, there are a few people who don't even know the name of Sherlock Holmes."

A fat woman looked around, "Who is it?" A tall man next to him replied, "It's the one with the beard."

Mouri Kogoro didn't like this event at first, so he was about to go back, but the host hurriedly explained, "Actually, Mr. Mouri is a detective like Sherlock Holmes."

"Mori Kogoro? I know you and I've seen you many times on TV, but Mr. Maori's head looks different from ordinary people, but it's not comparable to Sherlock Holmes."

"That's it." The people around muttered, "What is Sherlock Holmesby just looking for death..." Conan patted his head, and when it was over, it was estimated that Xiaotong was going to go berserk.

In the end, just as Conan thought, Hitomi Mouri picked up a piece of cake on the table and slapped the face of the most fierce glasses man, and then hid behind Mouri Kogoro and stuck his tongue out at the glasses man, " fool!"

"What? You **** brat!" After the man wiped the cake off his face, he was about to rush over to repair Hitomi Mouri.

"Uncle~~" Hitomi Mouri, who pretended to be scared, called Kogoro Mouri.

Maori Kogoro rubbed Hitomi Maori's head, then turned to look at the man with glasses, "It doesn't matter if you insult me, I don't have the same knowledge as you, but if you dare to mess with my family!"

Bam~ The man with glasses who came over felt like he was spinning around, and was slammed to the ground like a toad! Everyone looked at Mouri Kogoro in surprise and closed his mouth at the same time, so this kind of person is too cheap, and he is not happy if he doesn't hit him. .

The over-the-shoulder throw just now was the stunt of Mori Kogoro's fame! Strong shoulder throw! "Wow!!! Uncle is so handsome!!!" Mao Litong clapped his hands and said! !

"Ahahaha.. That's it!! That's it!!" Kogoro Mori regained his wretched smile.

"Haha..." Conan twitched the corners of his mouth a few times, looking at Hitomi Mori with an innocent face. . . "The skill of pretending to be cute is getting better and better... In fact, you have already killed him 10,000 times in your heart..."

Sure enough, when Conan walked to Mao Litong's side, he heard him muttering, "Bastard! Kill the four-eyed boy, after this trip is over, I will shoot you for an hour~" Seeing the four-eyed boy staring viciously Mao Litong, Mao Litong also glared at him. . "Look... Look at your sister~~"

This process happened to be seen by Hattori Heiji who walked in, "Huh? It seems that this uncle is not as useless as he imagined, he fell over the shoulder so beautifully!"

The host quickly came out to round the game, and the atmosphere became better again. Xiao Lan also breathed a sigh of relief, "But... Dad... you were really stylish just now!!"

"Ahahahaha." Kogoro Mori scratched his head again and laughed. . .

"Yeah! Hattori Heiji?" Xiaolan, who turned her head, saw Hattori Heiji and cried out in surprise, "Are you also a fan of Sherlock Holmes' novels?"

Hattori Heiji waved his hand, "That's not it, the reason why I joined this tour group was that I might be able to see Kudo Shinichi here. And to be honest, I like Erakun more than Conan Doyle... …”

"Okay everyone, it's very late today, so please hurry up and go to bed. Tomorrow morning, we have breakfast at nine o'clock, lunch at one o'clock, and dinner at eight o'clock. When it's time for dinner, we will hold a super reasoning that must be held every year. It's a big test of hard problems, everyone should know that if you can get full marks in this test, you can get the first edition of Conan Doyle's Virgo "Pink Study" this little book..."

Taking a breath, the host continued, "But before that, I have to ask you to answer the 1,000 detective questions of the Fore model, which must be called before tomorrow's dinner, and only those who get more than 990 points can get the super Opportunity for a big test. Just to be prudent, turn over anything with a mobile phone or Sherlock Holmes books on you."

"And even if you don't pay, there are cameras and bugs installed everywhere in this villa, which can fully monitor everyone. If someone cheats, they will lose their qualifications..."

After returning to the room, everyone else slept except for Conan, who answered the questions with great enthusiasm. . However, before going to bed, Conan, who was a little worried, asked Mao Litong again, "Xiaotong, don't kill the glasses man on impulse~"

"Anlaan, I won't cause trouble for my uncle..."

The next day, I didn't see the host for a whole day. It was already past nine o'clock in the evening. Everyone was a little impatient, but for the first edition of the book, they gritted their teeth and continued to wait, and finally waited until 12 o'clock. Around the clock, most of the people with exhausted patience left. . Only Conan and Xiaolan are left, and of course the man with glasses who was knocked down by Kogoro Mouri yesterday.

The man with glasses who was looking out the window shouted in surprise, "Isn't that the car we came in? Why is it moving?"

"It's the host!!" Everyone gathered at the window to look out, and found that the car was driving towards the edge of the cliff. Hitomi Mouri, Conan and Heiji Hattori rushed out and grabbed the window of the car door that Hitomi Mouri smashed with a punch. , stretched his hand in, grabbed the host's neck, then released his hand and jumped down.

"The person is already dead. Although the temperature in the car is very high, the person is still cold and a little stiff..." Hitomi Mouri said to Conan and Heiji behind him.

The car that lost control fell under the cliff and exploded violently. Everyone came to the edge of the cliff. The man in glasses looked at the burning car under the cliff. He, let him sit in the car's position, put the car's gear on the automatic transmission, and the car will move in the automatic direction."

"I think his murder work was probably carried out in that garage," said the man with glasses, pointing to the garage.

"Could it be that the murderer is among us?" Passerby A asked.

"Yes, that's what happened." The glasses man pushed his glasses.

"However, there is a question here," said Hattori Heiji on the side. "The car suddenly accelerated when it was halfway through, and there must be an air leak from the car..." Having said this, Hattori Heiji paused. pause,. . "Little pupil."

"Well? What's the matter?" Hitomi Mori looked at Hattori Heiji.

"What did you say when you touched the host just now?"

Hitomi Maori thought for a while, "Although the temperature inside the car is very high, the person is indeed cold, and the body is already in a hardened state, but it is a little soft, so it should have been dead for a long time."

"So... so did you see anything else?"

"His foot left the brakes when I broke the window."

"Well, that's it. If I guessed correctly, the sound of the air leak was the air conditioner, and the sudden acceleration was Xiao Tong breaking the window and letting the body's feet off the brakes."

Mouri Kogoro thought about and looked down the cliff, "The body can't be found anymore, and now we have to contact the police and wait here."

"But... the mobile phone is with the host." A passerby said.

"The phone should be in his room," said the host's assistant.

When everyone came to the host's room, they found that the phone had been smashed, "Damn, the phone has been destroyed, it seems that the murderer didn't want us to contact the outside world~www.NovelMTL.com~ Maori Kogoro's face The host's assistant, who checked the opened vault, also found that the first edition of the novel was missing.

"Damn it, I can't take it anymore, let's hurry up and make another place to go in the car," said the bearded man named Teng Chi.

"That's useless, the car parked in the garage, the mailbox has long been punched a big hole, all the gasoline in it has been drained, and the battery has also been removed, the car can't move at all now. "Everyone looked up and saw that Hattori Heiji walked in from the outside.

"The problem of the car's sudden acceleration has been known, but... Hattori Heiji glanced at the phone on the ground. The murderer smashed the phone and made a hole in the fuel tank. The purpose is to trap us in this place, which means that the murderer is still there. This is a serial murder case, all in all, the murderer is among us, but everyone can rest assured that as long as we investigate carefully, we can find him."

A guy named Hengye in a T-shirt pointed to the monitor on the ceiling, "Isn't there an anti-theft camera in the room? Maybe it will capture something."

The organizer's assistant shook his head, "Actually, those things are all fake. All cameras and bugs are deceptive..."

"No..." Everyone felt that they had been tricked.

"Anyway," Hattori Heiji straightened his hat, "it can still be known that the murderer put the host in the car and started it at about 3:30 in the morning."

"Not necessarily," Heiji Hattori, who was about to continue, was interrupted by Conan, "Do you remember? Hitomi once said that the host's corpse had been hardened for a long time, and the reason why the car accelerated was the host's feet. Off the brakes, and the air conditioner in the car..."
