Chapter 069
After coming out of Xiaolan's room, Okino returned to Conan with a smile on his face and poked him.
"How about great detective? My bad luck curse is quite effective."
"Huh? What kind of curse? I was obviously too careless and my foot sprained this time." Looking at Okino Shi's proud face, Conan felt very uncomfortable and wanted to bite him hard.
He vented his anger, but unfortunately now he has a headache and foot pain.
Conan: 'Humph, for the sake of my unwellness, I'll let you go for the time being. Your Majesty will succeed!'
Seeing Conan's persistence, Okino turned his eyes and the smile on his face deepened.
"Really, since you said that, if I don't do it again, it will make me look a little bit petty. Tsk, but if Xiaolan wakes up and finds that you are missing arms and legs, maybe... she will be very happy."
Conan's expression changed slightly, but he did not say anything to beg for mercy. Instead, he stared at the uncle's position, listened carefully to their words, and turned a blind eye to Okino's warning.
"Tsk, this kid is really calm." Chongzhi smiled secretly, but after thinking about it, he gave up. Conan was not interesting at all. What's the point of a child?
And except for the curse magic, he has never used any other small magic. On the one hand, the magic power in the past was indeed too little, and it could not support the consumption of magic for several times. But it is different now, a bad luck curse of more than ten seconds.
Just do it as you go, and you don't have to worry about the consumption of magic power at all, just like the previous illusion magic.
If it were Okino before, he wouldn't have dared to think about it. The consumption of magic power was too much. After all, the magic power consumed to build an illusion is naturally not comparable to a small bad luck curse.
"Hahaha, I now know who the murderer is, including the methods he used." Miss Ayako's sudden speech surprised these people, and the most different among them was Hattori and Uncle Mori.
Someone actually deduced the name of the murderer in front of the detective. Where should they put their faces?
"What, do you know who the murderer is?"
"Miss Ayako, is everything you said true?"
"Haha, of course." Miss Ayako lit a cigarette in a leisurely manner, with a confident look as if she really knew the identity of the murderer.
"Ayako, who is the murderer?" Mr. Toba became a little anxious.
"Well... don't worry, I will give him ten minutes to think about it now. If you don't want to say your name from my mouth, just bow your head and plead guilty." As she said this, Miss Ayako walked towards her with graceful steps.
door.
"Ayako, where are you going?" As Miss Ayako's boyfriend, Mr. Toba showed appropriate anxiety on his face, but no one paid attention because they all showed some anxiety on their faces.
"What, I need to go to the bathroom, do you want to come with me?" When she heard her boyfriend calling her, Ayako glanced at him with a slightly thoughtful look on her lips, and then turned around and left without hesitation.
"Ayako..." A trace of embarrassment flashed across Toba's face, but for the safety of his girlfriend, he still followed him out.
Miss Ayako's appetizing behavior made the uncle quite unhappy. No, he started immediately as soon as the protagonist left.
"Hmph, if you ask me to say she is bluffing, she has no idea who the murderer is."
As soon as the uncle finished speaking, Hattori immediately denied it, and Conan, the boy, couldn't sit still in his chair.
"No, she should know something, otherwise she wouldn't be able to say that."
Conan touched his chin with a slightly solemn expression: "He is right. Miss Ayako definitely knows something we don't know. Maybe she really knows the name of the murderer."
"Huh? This brat!" Hattori looked at Conan Yiyan strangely and frowned.
Uncle is not happy, what's going on with you two brats, you dare to contradict my detective Mouri Kogoro's reasoning.
Although the words were not spoken, the meaning revealed in the eyes was this.
"Hmph, what can two brats know?"
During this scene, Okino didn't say anything from beginning to end, but his attention was always focused on Hattori.
'Have you finally noticed Conan's identity? Well, with Hattori here, I believe there will be sparks between the two of them, hehehe~~ But who is the murderer? I can't wait to test it with magic.
.'
Thinking of this, Okino turned his head and glanced at Conan who was looking thoughtful, poked him and whispered.
"Detective, do you know who the murderer is?"
"Huh? How is this possible? There are many mysteries that I haven't solved yet."
"Really? It seems like you, the great detective, have your moments of misfire. Miss Ayako already knows who the murderer is~~"
"You guy." Conan finally understood. Okino was deliberately angry with himself, but Conan was not one to give in easily, so he immediately choked back.
"Haha, don't you think your magic is very powerful? Why don't you use your magic to solve the case? Since you are so powerful, you should be the first to find the murderer than a kid like me."
Okino lost his expression for a moment, then smiled and said: "Ha~ I still need to fight back. That's awesome, my Conan."
"Hmph, don't underestimate me, my fighting power is very strong." Conan raised his head proudly.
"Is it very strong? Why didn't I see it?" Okino pretended to be confused, which made Conan's teeth itch in anger.
Seeing this, Okino chuckled, "But in terms of combat effectiveness in a certain aspect, if you think you are number one, I'm afraid no one will refute you."
"What is it?" Conan asked subconsciously, but he immediately regretted it.
"grim Reaper!"
"..."
Okino was chatting happily, but Mr. Toba, who had just left, came back alone.
"How's it going? Did Miss Ayako say anything?"
"Ah, that...she didn't say anything, not even me."
"That's it, I'd say she's just pretending." The uncle still insisted on his point of view, and Hattori became more convinced of his inference.
However, no one expected that Miss Ayako would die in the explosion in the garage ten minutes later. This was the second victim after the hotel owner Mr. Kanaya.
The death of Miss Ayako has made this case even more confusing, and there are more and more suspicious places...
After returning, Hattori was the first to stand up and express his reasoning.
"I believe you have all seen what happened this time. The murderer did not know what method he used to ignite the gasoline exposed in the car, and just killed Miss Reiko. In addition, the hotel owner who fell off the cliff before and died is now the second one.
The victim was killed. So I guess that the murderer's murder may not be over yet, so I suggest that we all rest in this living room and wait until daybreak before we go down the mountain to call the police."
"What!"
"Impossible? Does the murderer still want to kill others?"
Hattori's remarks completely aroused the emotions of these people. Everyone was not calm anymore. It felt like holding a knife on their head, and they might lose their lives at any time and die tragically on the spot.
However, another opinion emerged at this time, that is, Uncle Maori believed that the person who fell off the cliff in the car was the hotel owner's doll, so the planned murder was entirely the work of Mr. Kanaya who was hiding somewhere.
Of course, Hattori sneered at the uncle's idiotic reasoning, but he couldn't stand the crowd, so those people also made up stories based on the uncle's reasoning. I don't know if Uncle Mouri is too famous, or... he would rather believe in the missing Kanaya.
My husband is the murderer, and he doesn't want to believe that the murderer is among his group.
Hattori was speechless, but this confirmed the guess in his mind. At this moment, he unexpectedly walked to Conan and Okino and sat down calmly.
"Huh?" Okino just nodded politely to Hattori's appearance. As for this guy... he had been looking at Conan from the beginning, talking about his findings in a leisurely manner.
"Tell me, why did Miss Ayako go to the garage in the middle of the night, and how did the murderer set the garage on fire? We were all in this room at the time, so he probably didn't have time to go to the garage."
Hattori's words suddenly hit Conan's heart. He didn't notice Hattori's meaningful gaze at all, and spoke his conjecture seriously.
"That's right. Could it be that there is a timer ignition device in the garage?"
"No, I'm sure there's no such thing inside."
"Then how did the murderer do it...eh?" Perhaps he felt the strange sight, but in the middle of saying this, Conan suddenly raised his head and glanced at Hattori, and his expression changed instantly.
"Ah hahaha, I was just playing a reasoning game just now. I just said it casually. Hattori-nii doesn't need to take it seriously, hehehe~~" Conan tried hard to make his voice louder, but he didn't know that Okino on the side had already wanted to laugh.
