The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

Chapter 498 The missing real culprit

The main mission appeared very suddenly, catching Qin Zhibo a little unprepared.

It is another esoteric cult investigation mission, and the mission was triggered when I saw "Keiji Aso".

Qin Zhibo searched for memories in his brain, and then he remembered who Keiji Aso was.

Isn't that Mr. Aso's biological father?

Musician Keiji Aso set fire to his entire family 12 years ago on the night of the full moon when he returned to Tsukikage Island to visit his bride.

Something strange happened, which led Aso to believe that it was the village chief and other gangsters who killed him all these years, so Aso forged his identity to carry out revenge on Moon Shadow Island.

But according to the clues Qin Zhibo found himself, the truth is another kind of devastating appearance.

On the night of Aldebaran's glorious day, musician Keiji Aso's brain failed to withstand the test of the "Unspeakable One", and he lost his mind and set fire to his wife and children.

The reason for all this tragedy is written on the coded letter of music scores that he hid in the old warehouse of the village hall.

Qin Zhibo felt that Aso Michiru would not be able to accept the truth of the matter, so he dealt with the letter privately.

In the letter, Aso Keiji said that when he was performing a music performance in Oklahoma, he met some people who called themselves "Yellow Monks."

These people preached the great existence of "the indescribable" to Keiji Aso, and arranged for him to engage in the work of transporting and selling goods.

Now Qin Zhibo knows that the so-called "unspeakable one" is Hastur, the King in Yellow. Those monks in yellow should be believers who worship the King in Yellow.

The file records show that Regin Ledoux was the person who provided evidence to Keiji Aso. Obviously, this Regin Ledoux was a member of the Yellow Seal Brotherhood.

It's a pity that Regin Ledoux has been shot dead by the police, and Qin Zhibo can no longer find information about the Yellow Seal Brotherhood from him.

However, the content of the main mission is to investigate the secret sect, and he must find at least two members of the Yellow Seal Brotherhood.

It seems that if you want to find clues, you can only look at this serial murder case file from 1995.

The case began with a murder in a sugar cane field in Oklahoma in 1995.

The deceased was a woman named Dora Lan.

Her body was fixed naked under a tree, with two huge antlers fixed on her head. There were marks on the joints all over her body, and there was a pattern of spiral tentacles printed on her back.

Around the site, there is also a tripod woven with rose thorns, young rattan and thin wicker.

After forensic examination, it was found that the deceased had been abused and violated before his death, and had taken drugs.

The police officers responsible for this case were local state troopers named Rust Cole and Martin Hart.

The two first went to the prison to question the deceased Dora Lan's ex-husband and obtained a confession. Dora Lan had said before her death that she wanted to be a "nun" and that she had met a "king."

During the investigation near the deceased's residence, two state police officers learned of a disappearance that occurred five years ago. The missing person was a little girl named Fontenot.

Two state troopers learned at the local sheriff's office that the little girl's disappearance case had been dropped by the previous sheriff and that other little girls in the area claimed to be chased into the woods by a "green-eared spaghetti monster."

In the case file, Qin Zhibo saw photos of the deceased’s body, a backup copy of the confession, and the “spaghetti monster with green ears” drawn by the little girl.

Qin Zhibo recognized the spiral pattern on the back of Dora Lan's body, which was somewhat similar to the yellow seal he had seen in "The King in Yellow", but there were slight differences.

And Dora Lan said that she saw the "King", which is probably the King in Yellow.

During the subsequent investigation, two state police officers found the hospital where Dora Lan had worked before her death, and obtained Dora Lan's diary from her best friend.

Dora Lan's diary records the "Yellow Robe King", "Carcosa", and a yellow church leaflet.

The two found the church's church based on the above address, but the church had been destroyed by fire, but there was a graffiti mural of a man wearing antlers on the wall.

Seeing this, Qin Zhibo probably knew the whole story.

The deceased Dora Lan was obviously attracted by members of the Yellow Seal Brotherhood. She believed in the existence of the King in Yellow, and "Carcosa" was the residence of Hastur in the script of "The King in Yellow". land.

This is somewhat similar to the contact process between Aso Keiji and the group of "yellow monks".

Although Keiji Aso did not say how he got deeply involved, he finally believed in the existence of the King in Yellow.

Of course, Qin Zhibo believed it himself.

Two relatively shrewd and responsible state police officers followed clues and found the church elsewhere. The pastor in the church said that the mural of "the man wearing antlers" should have been painted by the children of the congregation.

Some people in the church knew Dora Lan, and saw someone walking into the woods with Dora Lan.

The man was tall and his chin looked so smooth it looked like a burn scar.

This attack clue was seen by many people, and Dora Lan left the church afterwards, so the clue ended here.

Later, one of the state troopers found a drowning case that occurred three years ago in the previous case file.

The deceased was also a woman named Leanne.

Her body was determined to have been drowned, but she had the same corpse wounds, spiral patterns, and drug use as Dora Lan.

Through interviews and investigations, two state troopers learned that Leanne's boyfriend was named Regine LeDoux.

He had been a cellmate with Dora Lan's ex-husband, and her ex-husband had shared cool photos of Dora Lan with him.

And this Regin Ledoux mentioned to his ex-husband that some wealthy people in the south would hold a ceremony in which women and children were sacrificed and worshiped under ancient stones.

Not only that, Regin Ledoux also said words such as "Yellow Robe King" and "Carcosa", and showed off the spiral pattern tattoo on his body, claiming that it was their symbol.

The case suddenly came to light, and Regine LeDoux was wanted. After a month-long arrest, he was finally arrested.

During the arrest, Regin LeDoux was shot to death for resisting with a gun, which seemed like a death without evidence.

However, a large number of weapons-making tools and a pair of kidnapped children were found in his hiding place, which can be regarded as both human and material evidence.

At this point, the case was solved.

I've finished reading the case files.

Although the case handled by Qin Zhibo himself in Japan is also a murder case, it gives people an extremely dark and real feeling.

The murderer will not stay at the scene and wait for the police to come. A large number of interviews and investigations are the solid foundation for investigating the case, rather than showing off intelligent reasoning.

At the same time, Qin Zhibo received a task prompt from the system.

——

Side mission: Find out the murderer of this case

Task requirements: time limit 48 hours

Task reward: 2000 general skill proficiency, 100 social credit

——

Seeing these sudden messages, Qin Zhibo was stunned for a moment.
