Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

"Yes, there are no traces of a fight around the body of the first student, and he was shot while facing the murderer head-on. There are no traces of him retreating or escaping before his death. This means that the murderer is likely to be someone he knows, or at least the murderer appears. Being there didn't surprise him or make him very defensive..." Conan recognized Koshizui Nanatsuki's reasoning on the phone, followed Chi Fei late to the bedroom door, and looked at the person in the bedroom solemnly. The bed, "It's the same here with Ms. Miho. The sheets, like the sand, are easy to leave traces. Ms. Miho's body fell on the bed. She was shot in the front. Her hands were spread out to both sides of her body. The sheets underneath her body didn't have many wrinkles. , if this is the first scene, it means that she was not surprised or scared when she saw the murderer in the room before her death."

Chi Feichi walked to the bedside and looked down at Ito Miho's body lying on the bed. He was sure that this was the incident he remembered, "The murderer was a man who entered Miss Miho's bedroom at night and wouldn't let Miss Miho do it." For those who feel inappropriate or uneasy, this clue can eliminate many people’s suspicions.”

"Yes," Conan said seriously, "The murderer is either a woman that Miss Miho knows, or a man that she is familiar with and trusts enough."

Chi Feichi stood by the bed and turned to ask Conan, "Have you taken any photos of the scene?"

"Not yet," Conan took out his mobile phone, "I just came in and found that Miss Miho was murdered. I didn't find anyone else in the house, so I went out immediately to tell you the situation. The light in the house was dim, so I haven't Take photos of the scene.”

"Take a few dark-light photos first," Chi Feichi stepped away from the bed and took out a portable small flashlight from his pocket, "Then I will provide the lighting and you can take a few more photos of the corpse."

Conan turned on his cell phone camera and quickly took a few dimly lit photos of the exact room's bed, windows, and doors. He then walked closer to the bed and took photos of the body and sheets.

After that, Chi Feichi turned on the flashlight and asked Conan to take pictures of the scene again. Even the intact door and window locks and under the bed were illuminated for Conan to take pictures.

They wanted to leave here later and check on other residents nearby, so they couldn't stay at the scene all the time.

The purpose of leaving photos is to prevent someone from sneaking in to change the environment or destroy certain traces after they leave here.

If the murderer really returned to the scene and did something, they would be able to find out the changes in the room as soon as possible if there were photos for comparison.

After taking the photo, the two exited the bedroom.

"Are we waiting for Sister Nanatsuki to send over the guest list now?" Conan asked, "Should we go to the nearby wooden houses to look for it first?"

"Go to the manager's office in the main building." Chi Feichi turned off the flashlight, let his eyes adjust to the darkening environment, and started to walk out the door. "You may be able to find the accommodation list there."

"Didn't you ask Nanatsuki sister to get the accommodation list from the Hatakeyama family?" Conan put away his mobile phone and followed up. "The people staying in the hotel today are all guests invited by the Hatakeyama family to the wedding banquet, or people from within the Hatakeyama family. The rooms in the wooden house are also designated by the Hatakeyama family. I think in addition to the first child, there should be other people in the villa who know the guest list, such as the person in charge of the wedding banquet or the mother of the first child, Mrs. Komiko. It shouldn’t be difficult for Sister Tsuki to get the accommodation list..."

"Let Koshimizu go to the Hatakeyama family to ask for the accommodation list to prevent the list at the hotel from being taken away or destroyed. Now go to the main building of the hotel to find the accommodation list to prevent Koshimizu from not being able to get the list." Chi Feichi explained, "Be prepared. We can also take a look at the staff duty room in the main building."

"That's right," Conan nodded. "There should be staff in the main building today, but we haven't seen anyone here for a long time. Sooner or later, we have to go to the duty room in the main building to check the situation. Why not go there now and get the list?" Check on the staff by the way..."

Chi Feichi walked to the door of the wooden house without saying another word. He stopped and listened quietly to the noise outside. After Feichi gave the feedback that it was safe outside and that he did not hear any abnormal noise outside, he walked out. door.

Conan followed Chi Fei Chi the whole time, stopping when Chi Fei Chi stopped, and followed Chi Fei Chi out when he went out, feeling a little curious.

Is this a habit his little friend developed when he was active as July?

Chi Fei arrived outside the door late, glanced around, and found a string from his pocket, "Your fingerprints are already on the door handle. If you close the door, I won't increase the workload for the forensic investigators. "

Conan reached out and closed the door. He thought that Chi Feichi had not touched anything in the house from the time he entered to the time he left. Seeing Chi Feichi put the string horizontally at the door, he finally couldn't help but asked in a low voice, "What will you do before going out?" He pays attention to the movement outside the door, pays attention to whether he has left fingerprints at the scene, and considers whether someone will enter the room after he leaves. He does it skillfully and naturally. This does not look like what a detective or an animal doctor should do. Experience, is it a habit you developed as a bounty hunter? Have you always been so careful in your actions before?"

"Of course you have to be careful. Some criminals are cunning and cruel. Hunters who are ambushed will die." Chi Feichi put the string at the door and turned back to the car. "Get in the car and let's drive there."

Conan got into the car and continued to ask with a speechless expression, "If you want to catch those vicious criminals who have not been caught by the police and are wanted by the police, every action is very dangerous, right? You are not short of money, Why risk your life by becoming a bounty hunter?”

"Hattori accepts many commissions as a detective every year, and he doesn't charge commission fees." Chi Feichi started the car and drove to the main building, "What do you think he did this for?"

"The more complex the case, the easier it is for the detective to feel excited. In the process of solving the criminal's plan, the thrilling feeling and the sense of accomplishment gained in the end will make you want to stop after experiencing it once," Conan said, unable to bear it. Zumi smiled and said, "This is the charm of detective work. Hattori-nii must have been captured by this charm!"

“Human beings like things that bring positive feedback to themselves, such as video games. Even if the rewards brought by each level are virtual and will not bring actual benefits to themselves, there are still people who are addicted to them because the games will bring The pleasure of harvest is the positive feedback received after hard work," Chi Feichi said calmly, "In fact, detectives, bounty hunters and game fans are essentially the same. They are all obsessed with something that can continuously bring positive feedback. Things, I became a bounty hunter because every time I get a bounty, it gives me a positive feedback.”

"Go in, make money?" Conan's mouth twitched, becoming more and more speechless, "I thought it was the excitement of chasing the criminal, or the sense of accomplishment brought by justice..."

"There may be factors such as excitement," Chi Feichi said without changing his expression, "But for bounty hunters, 'bounty' always comes before 'hunter'. Just because I am not short of money does not mean that money cannot give me positive feedback." , Accumulating wealth is inherently a joyful thing.”

Conan: "..."

That makes sense.

None of the powerful families in the major financial groups is short of money, but they still focus on accumulating wealth. The reason may not be that they feel lack of resources, but because like Brother Chi, they can get positive feedback time and time again from the process of accumulating wealth, and they are addicted to it. in.

Judging from this spirit, Brother Chi, the heir to a large multinational conglomerate, is definitely qualified.

Chi Feichi drove the car in front of the main building and confirmed that there were no suspicious figures nearby. Thinking that he had recalled the truth of the case and that there was unlikely to be any hidden danger in the main building of the hotel, he gave up the idea of ​​letting Conan go explore the road first and stopped the car. He got out of the car and turned off the engine, opened the door and got out of the car.

Conan's thoughts were far away and he didn't think there was anything wrong with Chi Fei Chi getting off the car. He got off the car with Chi Fei Chi and walked towards the gate of the main building. He asked tentatively, "By the way, Brother Chi, you are a bounty hunter." What is it like to meet the most dangerous criminal?"

That's right, he just wanted to test whether Chi Fei Chi knew about the existence of that organization.

No matter how mysterious that organization is, it is impossible to completely block the outflow of information. There will always be people who know the existence of those guys, such as the man he met at the beginning who traded vodka and gin at Dorobica Paradise...

The man's company smuggled firearms, and the evidence was in the possession of the organization. He had to take the money there and exchange it for vodka to get the evidence back. At that time, the man mentioned, "The things I did are nothing compared to what your organization does." What'.

That means someone out there has heard some of the things that organization has done.

Bounty hunters will come into contact with people in the black and white areas, and it is very likely that they have heard of that organization.

Some information that the detective cannot know may have been heard by the bounty hunter.
