Scared the dog to death! !Chihiro, who had sent Dr. Ali and the others away, was distracted and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

In fact, she just came back just now, and she was calm on the surface like a puppy in her heart.If it wasn't for her extreme operation just now, I still don't know what will happen in the future... And why did Zhong Yuan come with them!

She only left the restaurant for a little over two hours, so their relationship shouldn't develop by leaps and bounds so quickly, right?

Chihiro sighed silently, remembering the scrutinizing look that Nakahara Chuya cast just now, and only then did he feel as if he was facing a big enemy.No matter how she talks to Nakahara Chuya in the future, at least she can't let the other party find out when she is still in the mansion.

With complicated emotions, she lay down quietly on the bed, and it was only at this point that she really started to feel sleepy.The excitement this night has never stopped. For her personally, the incident just now was also very thrilling, so she felt tired.It was only when Chihiro turned her face to turn on the phone that she realized that it was not far from dawn.

The police will come after dawn. It shouldn't matter to Zhongya in the Central Plains, right?Although he didn't look like he would be exposed in the last case, the nature of this incident was much worse than before.

Not sure if the police will get to know each of them further, with anxiety about the former owner, before dawn, Chihiro slowly fell into a dream filled with fantasy wonderland like Alice falling into the rabbit hole .

The rain stopped the next day, and sirens echoed through the empty mountains.Before the police car drove to the gate of the mansion, the voice came over first, so everyone in the mansion woke up instantly.Those among the guests who were still afraid of the murderer committing crimes again almost all sat in the dining room abruptly, spending half the night with their eyes open, their faces full of haggardness.

Chihiro, who went to the restaurant to meet with them, noticed this. She didn't have a long rest, but she seemed to be in good spirits. Before the police came in, she covered her mouth and yawned two small.

"You all came yesterday afternoon?" the local policeman asked.

"Except for the owner, Mr. Shimizu, the housekeeper and other servants have been here since the very beginning. All of us came here yesterday afternoon." Mori Kogoro took the initiative to undertake the work of connecting with the police.

"What were you doing at that time last night?"

"Basically, they rest in their own rooms. You can also see that this mansion has a large area, because there are enough rooms. Except for the young children, we all occupy a room by ourselves."

"The weather was bad last night. After dinner, everyone chatted casually and went back to their rooms. The housekeeper and servants were the same. They didn't stay in the hall or other places for too long." Shimizu Shinya added beside him.

The male police officer took notes while listening, "That is to say, except for the children and the doctor, everyone can't see each other, and everyone present can't prove each other's absence?"

"It appears so at this time, but it was the two men who were together when the body was found."

Following Maori's description, he turned his attention to Chuya standing beside him and the absent-minded Chihiro. The young policeman paused and asked, "The two of you were the first to find the body. You are a couple who came here to visit. ?"

Chihiro was taken aback by his words, and she was also distracted, so she lost her breath when she didn't look at her throat.She coughed a few times, and because she was the first person to discover it, Zhong Yuanzhong, who was standing with her again, also reached out and patted her.

"...Did I say something wrong?" The little police officer sighed, "Sorry, there are many young couples like you now."

Chihiro's blushing face turned even redder. She wanted to speak but couldn't stop coughing. Nakahara could only explain first, "No, we are not the relationship you said. We just met before. Once, I just met here again by chance."

The children were not in the queue to be interrogated, but they were all standing not far away and paying attention to the situation here. Seeing this, Hui Yuanai raised his eyebrows and said to himself, "... If you want to talk about the special opposite sex, this It looks more like it."

"What does it look like?" Conan was standing next to her, but he kept thinking and didn't listen to Haibara's words.

With an overly mature smile, the little brown-haired girl obviously didn't want to answer questions about the straight man Kudo Shinichi, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Secret."

"Meet by chance?" Hearing Zhong Yuanzhong also say the same, the policeman's eyes became sharper, and it is very suspicious to rush to separate the relationship. It doesn't seem like they have only met twice. Investigate, maybe someone can prove it?"

"The kid over there, he knows." Chihiro finally recovered, she pursed her lips, and quickly raised her finger to Conan who was still watching the play.

The little boy who was pulled into the water showed dead fish eyes expressing speechlessness, but he still said obediently, "Yeah! Sister Chihiro and this brother are indeed not familiar. We also encountered a case in the coffee shop last time. At that time, brother Helped her, so they knew each other."

The police officer nodded and took notes. The child's words are more trustworthy, but he quickly asked, "Since you are not that close, why did you find the body together last night? It wasn't just a small talk at that time." time?"

"I heard a voice last night, so I went to the corridor to have a look. It happened that she wanted to go to the kitchen, so I followed suit."

"It was very dark downstairs, and the switch on the first floor was turned off. I was a little scared, so I asked the gentleman who was in the corridor to accompany me." Fearing that the police would be suspicious of his words, Qian Xun quickly added some detail.

But the housekeeper stood up and explained, "Even after nightfall, we will not turn off the switch. It may be a certain guest..."

After a brief interrogation of them, the police focused on the scene of the crime. Of course, they were also restricted as suspects. They were only asked not to leave the confines of the mansion, but they did not prohibit the guests from going around. walk around.

Maybe it's because the police cars have surrounded the entrance of the mansion.This mansion is still closed in nature. Even if there is a large garden and swimming pool behind the house, there are black iron fences around the edges, which do not directly integrate with the mountain scenery.

Now that the rain has stopped, Chihiro is going to go outside to get some air.Anyway, she is not a murderer, so there is no need to be nervous, and the atmosphere in the room is too heavy at the moment, making her uncomfortable.There were also several other guests who were out of gregariousness like her, or were not used to such a scene, so they left the house temporarily.

Thinking of Mr. Shimizu's mention of the scenery behind the house yesterday, and of the mysterious woman in white, Chihiro walked towards the glass greenhouse alone.The door was unlocked, and there was no one else in the room when she opened the door and entered.

The interior is very neat and clean, there are still flower pots but no traces of people are left.It has been raining last night, the ground will be dirty when you walk in, has it been cleaned?If the person who was here yesterday was someone from the museum, it seems that there is not enough time to take such an action.

"The flowers here are really beautiful." While Chihiro was still in a daze, another female voice came over again, "You think so too, Ms. Onodera."

It was Junko Tomama's voice. She stood behind Chihiro, lovingly stroking the petals of a pot of roses near the door.Immediately, Chihiro noticed keenly that her position blocked the only exit of this beautiful greenhouse, which made her a little uneasy.

"Well, I like this place very much." She said so, and began to walk slowly outside, but Junko Tomama didn't mean to give way.There was a gloomy dark color in her eyes, and there was a gentle smile on the corner of her mouth, but it gave people a cold feeling behind for no reason.

Feeling that the other party was scaring her, the puppy began to be unhappy. She frowned and stopped avoiding it, and asked directly, "Miss Fujian, did you come here last night? I seem to see your face from the room." figure."

As soon as she finished asking, she watched the expression of Junko Tomama closely.She didn't look panicked, but rather dazed between her brows and eyes.The feeling of gloom just now has completely disappeared, and everything seems to be just Chihiro's illusion.Fuma Junko pinched the petals in her hand and said, "No, I stayed in the room last night."

Something was wrong, Chihiro instinctively sensed that her changes were very strange.Tomima, who came back to his senses, had already turned sideways to let her out of the door, but Chihiro did not leave in a hurry, she chatted with the other party casually, her attention was back and forth between her and every place in the greenhouse stop.

...until she felt the presence of filth.

Could it be that the one from last night was a female conjurer?Advising Junko Tomama, who seemed still in a daze, to go back to the museum to rest first, Chihiro's steps were heavy, she picked a random direction and walked to the northeast of the house.

Tomima Junko's performance really seemed to be affected by a curse, but why did the people on the side of the curse appear here?

... If you say that it is not a magician, the magic spirit with a human form is even more heavyweight, and it is definitely not something she can beat. Thinking about it this way, it is better for a magician to deal with.She was very absorbed in her thoughts, and walked deeper and deeper along the path, gradually moving away from the main hall.

A pair of eyes hidden in the shadows had been staring at her closely since she appeared behind the house, and seeing that she was alone away from the crowd, they quickly followed her from a distance.

Shinya Shimizu mentioned this direction to them before.When the path came to an end, Chihiro quickly saw a corner of the swimming pool, surrounded by lush vegetation, giving people a sense of relaxation and healing similar to forest bathing, but she raised her hand to cover her nose.

There was that smell again, the smell of chemical reagents that I had smelled before.She didn't know what the smell was, but she guessed that the murderer might have hidden the body here.

Chihiro walked to the edge of the pool and looked down - there wasn't even any cover, a naked body of a woman with its face peeled off lay there wide open.She calmly squatted down to observe for a while, then took out her mobile phone, ready to call Dr. A Li.

The pungent gas was still drilling into her nose, Chihiro began to feel a headache and a little nausea.Presumably it's because her nose is more sensitive than others.

The prisoner must have left the body outside to let yesterday's heavy rain wash away his movements and the smell.So, is that face hanging on the interior door a demonstration?

Feeling dizzy, Chihiro, who was still waiting for the phone call, did not realize that someone was approaching from behind her.But before the man put his hands around her neck, he was kicked himself into the empty swimming pool.
