I'm on the scramble

The one who yelled was the head maid I met in the hall just now, who broke through the adulterous relationship between the little mother and her son (what she thought was), she was so shocked that she turned pale, as if she was trying to hide something, she hurriedly picked it up. He picked up the tray on the ground, quickly returned to his normal look and bowed his head to explain the emergency to the two of them.

"I'm extremely sorry... madam, young master." She didn't dare to look directly at the two of them, and spit out as fast as a broken string of pearls, "The cage where the precious beast was kept was knocked down by the goods inside, and I don't know why Very excited, please, please allow me to call someone first and then go to check the condition of the cage..."

After finishing speaking, she lifted the hem of her skirt and hurriedly left the corridor outside that door.

Because the atmosphere was suddenly interrupted by an outsider, Luanbu who hugged her straightened his upper body slightly, and looked up at the door without recovering.

Gaining room to breathe, Ah Li also realized what happened to them just now.Immediately, she was so scared that she let out a "wow", and fled away from the range controlled by Luanbu. She rolled outwards, hit the coffee table like a ball that would bounce, and then rolled in the opposite direction non-stop. The bottom of the sofa.

"Ali! Are you alright!" Seeing that she had a "serial car accident" under the sofa, even Luanbu unconsciously opened Bicui's eyes, and stretched out his hand nervously to get her out.

Being disturbed by such a mess, the charming pink atmosphere that was originally filled around them was completely destroyed, and everything turned into a burst of bubbles and dispersed.Ah Li, who hit his head, felt the pain coming from the top of his head, and couldn't help crawling out from the bottom of the sofa quickly, lying on the sofa cushion and smoothing his hair to maintain his image.

"Ugh..."

Luanbu seemed to be trying to get close to her while she was hugging her head, but Ah Li stretched out his palm reflexively, blocking his chest and the front skirt of his kimono.

"It's okay! I'm fine!"

So stop leaning in!Ah Li, whose psychological defense is weak, can't stand it!

But what Edogawa Ranpo wants to do, usually he will take the initiative to do it faster than everyone else in the next second.

"The hair is all messed up, why don't you say no—" Dissatisfied with her resistance, the detective walked around her arm unhappily, poked his fingertips towards her head, and pulled it off in a flash. That pearl card.

The long tea chestnut hair that was rolled up instantly lost its restraint and fell down, hanging down softly on the shoulders and a pair of snow-white butterfly bones exposed by the open neckline at the back.The long hair flowing with sandy gold is more beautiful than the river in the sun, and the playful curled tail of the hair is about to fly, as if carrying back her own innocent girlish temperament.

"You like this are like the original you."

The black-haired young man who said these words tilted his head, stretched out a finger and poked her forehead lightly.

But the girl stared at him as if she was dying, her rose-like shy and beautiful face was lightly blush, and after a while, she softly uttered a word as if she was going all out.

"What, I too... want to see the 'original you'!"

Luanbu opened his mouth, unable to speak.

Suddenly there was another sound of footsteps outside the corridor, and the open door was easy to be watched by prying eyes, making it difficult for people to talk properly.

Ah Li, who was about to say something to him, quickly restrained his embarrassing posture, his curled eyelashes were half-dangling and wandering into the air next to him, and couldn't help but move back after a few seconds, and decided to look directly at that person The eyes of a famous detective.

She can become very shy, difficult to speak, unable to face a sincere heart.But at critical moments, the courage to choose to face shy things stubbornly is as cute as a long-horned elk.

"No matter what you think about Ranpo, even if I rely on my own strength, I will definitely get out of this book!"

Then Ah Li didn't wait to react in a daze, and forced his hand to walk out of the door, and once again devoted himself to the process of investigating the case.

Together with the head maid, the three guests who were invited to the party were called back to the scene again.According to the information left by the male host, the four of them are the most likely suspects.

"Ma'am, your hair looks more dazzling and beautiful." As soon as she came to the hall, the guy who wanted to engage in sister-in-law literature came to harass her again.

Ah Li didn't even look at him, just passed by his side and came to the front like the wind.

"According to the host's arrangement, we should go to the hall at 8 o'clock in the evening. At that time, a small-scale auction will be held in this venue for pre-appreciation. Before this time, the host was making preparations here-knowing this Are we the only ones present?"

Seeing that everyone was present, Ah Li temporarily uttered a word to analyze the case.

The huge hall was basically cleared of tables and chairs, and the corpses were still lying on the ground alone.It was raining heavily outside the window, and the road outside the mansion must also be blocked. I also knew that some reliable policemen would not appear so kindly in Poe's novel world, and they could only solve the case here first.

Hearing what Ah Li said, the uncle who was still wondering why he was going back to the scene of the murder licked it up again, wanting to be kicked away: "So, ma'am, are you suspecting that the murderer is among us? "

"Don't call me Mrs. Ma'am, now I'm detective Fuzawa Reli!" A Li smashed a bottle of porcelain bottle placed next to him with one hand, and warned in a vicious voice: "Stop talking nonsense, what about your alibi at that time?" ?”

With a snap, the disintegrated fragments fell off from her palm to the ground, and the skin on her hand was still smooth without any scars.

Everyone took a few steps back in this wave of unexpected violence: "..."

——How many times have you popped the vase to intimidate others before you can do it so skillfully.

However, the brother-in-law who bears the brunt of her beauty seems to have awakened some attribute, his complexion became more excited, and he stared at her with burning eyes: "I... I was taking a bath in the room at the time, because I thought I could see my husband tonight... …No, Ms. Detective, I couldn’t help but immerse myself in the water for a while, the shampoo I used happened to be…”

"Okay, I'm not interested in your bathing process." Ali interrupted him impatiently, and asked sharply: "I remember that all the rare animals used for exhibition in this house were captured through your channels of?"

The uncle paused when he heard the words, and there was something strange in his tone that could not be ignored: "Yes, is it possible that the famous detective lady wanted to say that I secretly went to find my brother behind everyone's back for the reason of negotiating the goods, and killed him when he was not prepared?" him?"

Ah Li avoided talking about this, and only raised his eyelids and asked him: "I didn't say that, don't rush to jump the wolf, I'm just curious that you seem to have no sadness at all about the death of your own brother."

What's more, he was so happy that he wanted to attack his sister-in-law.

"Jumping wolf...?"

I don't quite understand the meaning of this term. My brother-in-law thought hard for a while before deciding to give up, only for the case itself: "I'm really dissatisfied with my brother, but I can't...kill him just because of this. I want to kill him. If you are a murderer, please show the evidence! Besides, if you want to enter here and kill your brother, other people can do it, as long as you go through the window here..."

But at this time, the person behind Ah Li interrupted his speech: "You idiot, this is impossible."

Turning his head, Luanbu turned his face away from the back with a worried face and said: "This is a three-story hall, especially when it is raining heavily outside, there is no sill to stand on. If you really come in and out through the window, the edge of the window There are signs of wetness from the rain, obviously not here. And I've checked, and the doors and windows are locked - except for the side room off the hall, which is a separate room."

The little uncle who was scolded as a 'stupid' stayed further: "How dare you scold your uncle face to face... Forget it, you are right, there is also a side room connected to the hall, this maid lady, I remember to help my brother take care of the cage right?"

The head maid who was related to this family shook her shoulders, glanced at Ali and Luanbu nervously, and said cautiously: "This... this is indeed, the rare beasts are temporarily detained in the nest next to the hall. The small room is so convenient that it can be pushed to the hall nearby.”

A Li tilted his head and asked her: "Then what were you doing at the time of the incident? It is said that you seem to be the No.1 discoverer?"

The head maid who was questioned immediately panicked: "At that time, I was indeed taking care of the rare beasts in the next room, but seeing that the time was approaching, I left the side room according to the master's instructions, and went to everyone's room to gather everyone."

Ranbu casually added: "That is to say, you were the last person the deceased saw?"

Unknowingly, he seemed to play a leading role in it again, making Ah Li quietly staring at his side face.

(What, I said that I don't want to solve the case, but it turned out that I kept giving reminders.)

"I didn't kill anyone!" The head maid became anxious, and began to speak indiscriminately: "Madam, master, you can't pour dirty water on me just because I discovered your secret just now! If you want to talk about the motive of killing, madam, you and master In fact, it is the biggest!"

Luanbu glanced at her, but strangely did not reply.

But Ah Li, who is super sensitive to this question, immediately rushed to the front of Luanbu, hurriedly opened his hands and gestured: "Wow, if you can talk, talk more... No, I mean, you don't know what to say." If you can talk, stop talking nonsense!!"

Ah Li, who subconsciously spoke the truth, hurriedly stopped, so sad and angry that he almost wanted to bang his head against the wall, which undoubtedly became darker and darker.

Even my uncle was in a hurry, and asked anxiously, "What? What happened between Madam and Young Master?"

After all, this is an explosive scandal, but when things come to an end, even if the head maid comes out.

However, just as the maid was about to open her mouth, she was swept away by a narrow and sharp gaze, and she couldn't help but shut her mouth.

"Hmph, even if something happens, it's none of your business. If you want to have sex with Ah Li, it won't be your turn in another 100 years."

Ah Li, who was focused by everyone with strange eyes, had a numb scalp. When he backed up, he happened to bump into Ranbu's arms. He took advantage of the situation and quietly grabbed his wrist from behind. Such a mocking full-level remark.

The little uncle finally became annoyed because of his negligent attitude: "Young master, you seem to be targeting me! Did you forget that I am your uncle?"

If you are afraid, you are not walking in disorder, and he immediately said indifferently: "I didn't specifically target you, I just simply felt that everyone present is rubbish."

Ah Li felt weird, and poked Luanbu's waist with some dissatisfaction.

"Did you scold me too!"
