Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

In the living room and the living room, when it was 12 midnight, everyone in the Grape House gathered again for a tea party, but the number of people was a little smaller. Except for the murdered Huo Si Jiuyao and Huo Si Xiao, Dr. Ali took the children back to the lakeside villa at noon , but there are a few more criminal police.

"Where's Detective Chenghu?" The horse-faced police officer didn't see Gao Cheng's figure, and was surprised for a while, "Didn't he say that he would continue to hold the tea party?"

"I don't know," the young detective next to him was also puzzled, "I borrowed a few people from me before, and I don't know where to go."

At this time, Huo Si Xingzi, who had changed into a long white dress, entered the living room with a teacup and brewed herbal tea.

"It's been a long time, everyone," Huo Si Xingzi smiled and put the tea on the coffee table in the middle, "I thought the tea party was going to be cancelled, but luckily Kentaro told me."

"Actually, this tea party was requested by Detective Chenghu," Police Officer Ma Mian asked, "Miss Xingzi, have you seen him?"

Huo Si Xingzi looked confused: "No, what happened to Detective Kido?"

"No one has seen Detective Kido?"

The horse-faced police officer became serious, and his face looked a little ugly. While asking his subordinates to find someone, he looked suspiciously at Huo Si Xingzi.

"Miss Xingzi, in fact, Detective Kido has already suspected that you are the murderer of this murder, and our police have also collected some clues..."

"W-how could it be?" Huo Si Xingzi tightened his body and said with a stiff smile, "How could I be the murderer? Detective Chenghu must have made a mistake..."

"I can explain about the murderer," Xiaoqiao Xianjian looked at Huo Si Xingzi with the same suspicion, "When Mr. Jiu Yao was killed, it seemed that everyone had an alibi on the surface, and no one had time to unplug it between ceremonies. The magic lamp plug, but if you just turn off the lights, you can do it even if you don't go to the ceremony...

"Miss Xingzi, the magic light goes off at 12 o'clock, and it will turn on again at 12:11, and you, who are in the kitchen at these two times, can completely cut off the power between the ceremony through the main gate in the kitchen. As for the murder scene The arrangement should be to hide Mr. Jiuyao's body there in advance, and then use the 5 minutes to make tea at 12:7 to rush to the ceremony to arrange it..."

"It's too much, Xiaoqiao," Huo Si Xingzi said with tears in his eyes, "Why did I kill my brother? It's just enough to make tea in 5 minutes..."

"Of course there are evidences," Xiaoqiao interrupted. "Those three cursed dolls, after the police investigation, the police dogs smelled your scent from above, but this is enough for direct interrogation. This tea party is Kido is just giving you a chance.

"

"Xing, Xingzi..."

Huo Sixiao's wife and maid Koizumi stood up in disbelief, while Izawa turned his head away, gritted his teeth, looked at Huo Si Xingzi again and said, "Xingzi, there must be some misunderstanding, right?"

"I..." Huo Si Xingzi took a step back, "It's just that there is a smell on the doll, which doesn't mean I'm the murderer, does it?"

"Boom!" Amidst the gathering of dark clouds, the rain in Karuizawa became heavier and heavier, and from time to time a burst of thunder shrouded the grape pavilion.

Gaocheng searched gradually in Izawa Kentaro's room and all the places where he might have been active, but he never found any strange traces.

He put suspicious eyes on Izawa, but unfortunately there was no evidence at all. Izawa's method was quite clean and he did not leave a tail.

If he hadn't been prepared, this crime carefully planned by Gao Yuanyao might have turned into a perfect crime, at least the police had nothing to do.

"Detective Chenghu," the young detective sent by the horse-faced police officer anxiously said, "When are we going back to the living room? The tea party has already begun."

"Let's go back now, just as I also want to expose the murderer's tricks."

Gao Cheng looked up at the surveillance camera that could barely capture the entire corridor after the simple layout of the entrance, and walked towards the living room with a slight smile.

Xiaoqiao Xianjian in the living room is still analyzing the feasibility of Huo Si Xingzi committing the crime, but still produces inconclusive evidence. Huo Si Xingzi gradually calmed down from the initial panic, only admitting that he used the cursed doll, but he is determined Denies murder, denies Xiaoqiao Kenjian's reasoning.

"Even if I really cursed them with a curse doll, it wouldn't constitute homicide, would it?" Fire Priest Xingzi smiled triumphantly nervously, "It's true that I went to the kitchen, but it's true that I went to and from the ceremony within 5 minutes. The reasoning between them is too ridiculous! Is there any evidence?"

"Miss Xingzi, you are the only one who has the time to commit the crime, and your motives are quite sufficient," the horse-faced police officer looked at Huo Si Xingzi's distorted face in a deep voice, "and now the Chenghu detective who suspects you is also missing..."

"Officer," Gao Cheng appeared at the door of the living room, "Miss Xingzi is indeed not a murderer, strictly speaking, she is just a scapegoat being used."

"Detective Kido?"

"Kirodo?"

Xiaoqiao Xianjian looked at Gao Cheng who walked into the living room in surprise.

"How do you..."

"I first discovered this after comparing the photos of Mr. Jiuyao's corpse and the cursed doll." Gao Cheng stood still and glanced at the crowd, "It may be difficult to notice, but the cursed doll is actually a little different from the corpse. The wires wrapped around the neck, the wires of the puppet are wound to the left, but the wires around Mr. Jiu Yao’s neck are wound to the right..."

"Does it matter?"

"Try it and you will know. Generally speaking, people are used to winding rope in the direction that is convenient for them. Right-handed people go to the right, and left-handed people go to the left... In other words, unlike the left-handed Miss Xingzi, the one who killed Mr. Jiuyao is very likely. It's right-handed..."

"is this real?"

The horse-faced police officer was taken aback, and without thinking too much, he quickly took out the photos of the corpse and the doll for comparison.

"The direction of the wires is indeed different. Did someone else really kill Mr. Jiu Yao?!"

Huo Si Xingzi looked at the photo completely in a daze, with a confused look on his face: "It's true that I'm left-handed, but..."

"Miss Xingzi wants to ask Heigua Guimen to kill President Qinglong and the others with a black magic spell, right?"

Gao Cheng turned to the chaotic Huo Si Xingzi.

"The order and time of the puppet's death method are all carried out by the black melon ghost gate, including cutting off the power supply between the ceremony during the tea party last night..."

Huo Si Xingzi didn't speak, but just looked at Gao Cheng in horror.

"All the steps are actually just a part of this murder, helping the real murderer cover up, and at the same time bear all the charges."

The horse-faced police officer felt chills in his heart, and asked tightly: "Then who is the real murderer? Everyone else had an alibi yesterday..."

"Before that," Gao Cheng picked up the vanilla tea pot, filled the cups one by one, and pushed one of the unique teacups in front of Kentaro Izawa, "Since it's a tea party, let's have a cup of tea first."

Huo Si Xingzi opened his mouth, hesitantly said: "Well, this is my cup... I use expensive tea cups for guests, and I always use this cheap one..."

"It doesn't matter, Izawa doesn't care anyway."

Gao Cheng smiled, motioned for Kentaro Izawa and the others to sit down and said, "Everyone, drink it while it's hot. This time the vanilla tea is the 'Rue' specially prepared by Miss Hoshiko."

"rue?"

"It seems to be a kind of vanilla called the herb of repentance..."

"That's right," Gao Cheng nodded and said, "I don't want to directly name the murderer either. After drinking this cup of vanilla tea, if you still have your heart, you can confess to yourself."

The horse-faced police officer became more and more astonished: "After drinking this kind of vanilla tea, you can confess your crime? Detective Chenghu, this is too..."

"Let's get started," Gao Cheng said calmly, "This is my last chance for the murderer."

Everyone held up their teacups with weird faces, and several policemen looked at Gao Cheng with even more suspicion.

If this herbal tea really works, why do we need the police? Still need to work hard to investigate?

Kentaro Izawa felt a little cold, but he couldn't lift the teacup in front of him. Sweat gradually dripped down his face, and his fingers began to tremble slightly. He finally picked up the teacup, and looked at the steaming vanilla tea with trembling eyes. But still dare not bring it to his mouth.

The unique fragrance penetrated Izawa's body, goosebumps arose on his body while his heart was beating violently, Gao Yuan Yaoyi's figure, everything flashed in his mind like a movie, and then all shattered before his eyes.

Amazing talent and IQ seem like a phantom in front of a cup of vanilla tea...

"Boom!"

Izawa Kentaro lowered his head unwillingly, put the teacup back on the table heavily, and clenched his teeth.

"Why? Kido Takasei, how do you know?!"

"Kentaro?"

Xiaoqiao Kenjian looked surprised, and didn't understand how Kentaro Izawa reacted so much to a cup of herbal tea.

"Hey, Kentaro," Xiaoqiao paused, and looked directly at Izawa with a trembling voice, "Could it be you... Kido, what's going on here?"

Gao Cheng calmly looked at Izawa: "Don't worry, I just found the same cup, and the teacup for Ms. Xingzi has already been sent for poison testing."

Izawa shrank his eyes, raised his head to meet Gao Cheng's gaze with a change in his face.

"You doubted me from the beginning?"

"When the black melon ghost gate arranged the tea party, I did realize that the incident did not end with President Xiao." Gao Cheng turned his gaze to the confused Huosi Xingzi, "Miss Xingzi, who has been suspected by the police, may have been arrested. Designed as the last link, ending this perfect crime with suicide..."

"ending?"

The horse-faced police officer and others stood up speechless and looked at Kentaro Izawa.

"Detective Shiro-kido, is the real murderer Izawa? But he has sufficient alibi."
