The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

In the dim bedroom where the masks were scattered, Conan carefully avoided the masks on the ground, looking for any clues that could lead to deductions.

But if possible, Conan now hopes that someone can turn on the lights at the murder scene.

Conan himself could turn on the light, but he would have to step on a chair.

If he alerted Kogoro Mori when he turned on the light, he might be "invited" to leave the murder scene again.

Someone turn on the light!

Conan was screaming in his heart, but Qin Zhibo and Mouri Kogoro had no intention of turning on the lights.

Qin Zhibo even stopped in the middle of the room, looking around mechanically.

No matter how powerful your observation skills are, this is not how you use them, right?

What clues can be uncovered from such a dark investigation?

At this moment, the twin maids in the corridor at the door saw the masks scattered in the room and exclaimed: "This is a curse! It must be the curse of the masks!"

"The teacher was killed by the curse of these masks!"

The two maids who were members of the atmosphere team seemed to be greatly frightened. They squatted pitifully on the ground and hugged each other.

But what they should consider more now is that they are unemployed again.

Nagara Haruka, who was standing behind, took out the No. 13 tarot card, the God of Death, from his pajamas pocket.

Just as Koizumi Hongzi said when she first came to the villa, there will be dead people on this journey.

It's just that it's not him who dies.

Koizumi Anko on the side also saw the Death Card in Nagara Haruka's hand and was a little surprised.

The deceased was not her

In the room, Qin Zhibo looked around the dim surroundings and quickly found all the investigation points.

【Survey√】

[The mouths of some masks were stained with a lot of blood]

【Survey√】

[The blood stains on the dagger are very special. If you are holding a dagger, there will be no blood stains on the handle]

【Survey√】

[The sealed door is facing the bed, which is a Feng Shui taboo]

Qin Zhibo stood there without moving and found all the available clues in the room.

[The investigation of all investigation points at the crime scene has been completed. Do you want to recreate the scene? 】

【Scene Replay√】

The scene began to reappear, but Qin Zhibo did not see "Xiao Hei" in the room.

Where did "Xiao Hei" go?

Is it too dark here, so "Xiao Hei" hides?

Qin Zhibo walked to the door of the room and turned on the light in the room, but he still didn't see "Xiao Hei" in the room.

However, Conan, who was searching for clues, suddenly saw the field of vision in front of him brighten up, and immediately gave Qin Zhibo a look of thanks.

Listen to me, thank you, because of you, you illuminate the murder scene.

At this time, Qin Zhibo remembered that there was a sealed room door in the investigation point just now. Could it be that "Xiao Hei" was on the other side?

Qin Zhibo walked out of the room and walked into the bedroom next door according to the structure of the house. Sure enough, he saw "Xiao Hei" who was "working hard".

I saw "Xiao Hei" hanging in the air, throwing things into Su Fanghongzi's bedroom along the grid board on the door.

[Fast forward] After a preparation process with highly repetitive movements, "Xiao Hei" tightened something in the posture of a tracker, and then struck it with something in his hand.

After finishing, cut it off.

[End of scene reenactment]

No matter it's windy or raining, as long as you are within your jurisdiction and the road is not destroyed, Officer Memu will arrive "in an instant".

"It's you again"

When he saw the professional team, Officer Megu showed his half-moon eyes with no surprise.

After experiencing so many cases, Officer Mu Mu has a vague feeling that Qin Zhibo has some "death" qualities in him.

Brother Qin is infected

As for why it was "infected" rather than "infected", it was because when Brother Qin was away, the Maoli family never stopped encountering murder cases.

"How should I put it? The case should be calling me as a famous detective."

Mouri Kogoro wanted to say something more, but Officer Megure quickly raised his hand to interrupt, "Just talk about the case."

"Yes! Officer Megure, the case is like this"

Mouri Kogoro began to introduce the case to Officer Megure, while Qin Zhibo stood not far away and listened.

Koizumi Hongzi came over at this time, stood next to Qin Zhibo and whispered: "This case is really still the curse of the mask, right?"

"One of the two bedroom doors was completely sealed, and the other was double locked. There was no sign of damage."

"In this case, it is impossible for humans to come in. Except for the mask, they can get out of the grid plate above the sealed door."

After listening to Koizumi Hongzi's analysis, Qin Zhibo couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Ning is the famous detective - Koizumi Hongzi?

However, Koizumi Hongzi analyzed a wave of cases from the perspective of magic, but in fact

"This case has absolutely nothing to do with a curse, but something man-made."

"I also know the murderer and the method, but there is still a lack of conclusive evidence."

"And if the case is solved now, the police will take these masks away as evidence, and we will not be able to get the 'Pale Mask' among them again."

According to the retention period for evidence in criminal cases in this world, the fastest the trust relationship can take is one week. By then, the task time will have been exceeded.

So Qin Zhibo must now find a way to find the only pale mask among the two hundred Xiao Bol's masks.

This is only the first step. How to get the mask after finding it is also a problem.

Originally, Qin Zhibo's plan was to use Koizumi Hongzi's magic to find the "pale mask", and then use the commission contract signed with Su Fanghongzi to get the mask he wanted in an honest way.

But I didn't expect that now that Su Fanghongzi was dead, even all the Xiaobul Masks would become physical evidence.

Conan, what a bad luck!

Qin Zhibo attributed all the reasons to Conan.

Koizumi Hongzi looked at Qin Zhibo with a look of disbelief on her face.

In Ekoda Town, where Koizumi Anko lives, there are relatively few homicides. Theft or economic crimes are the most common types of crimes here. The local detectives are also relatively proficient in catching thieves.

This was the first time she had seen such a rapid case solved with her own eyes.

No, it was the same last time at Rice Flower Shrine.

Eh? Why does it feel like a long time has passed since that case? It was obviously just over two weeks ago.

Koizumi Hongzi fell into doubts about time, but Qin Zhibo turned his attention to Xiao Buer's Mask in the room again.

The Noto forensic officer wearing white gloves was picking up the blood-stained mask on the ground and preparing to take it for testing.

These Shawl masks are not only works of art, they are also antiques with a history of hundreds of years and can be regarded as antique works of art.

If it is an antique piece of art, will anyone remove the blood stains that remain due to historical reasons?

Qin Zhibo remembered that TV had reported on the three treasures of Ryoma Sakamoto. One of the treasures was the wine glass stained with Ryoma's blood when Ryoma was assassinated. The mottled blood stains still remain on it.

It is the preservation of that trace of blood that proves the historical value of this wine glass.

However, the Xiaobul masks collected by Su Fanghongzi all had smooth surfaces, and no blood stains could be seen on them before the murder.

The legend at that time was that Xiao Bol committed suicide in the midst of these masks, as if the masks were sucking his blood.

This is how the Masks of the Damned got their name, and there is no reason for any collector to clean off the bloodstains that prove their historical value after acquiring these masks.

Judging from this, there is only one possibility.

These Shawl masks are actually real “fake” masks!
