Chapter 1256 The deceased who entered the female soup

"There's an old man inside who we had a close relationship with before. He's dead."

Although there was still a surprised expression on his face, after Conan opened the door and saw Tang Ze, he immediately told what was going on inside.

"I just heard a scream. Is Ayumi inside?" Karasawa asked, "Is this convenient for entry?"

After all, she is a girl, so even if the other person is a child, she must show her the most basic respect.

"Haihara and Ayumi are changing clothes inside, please wait a moment." Conan shook his head after hearing this.

"Haiyuan is here?" Tang Ze said in surprise: "This is really rare."

"Well, Miss Sakurada urged her to come out, so there's nothing we can do about it." Because there were two little ones around him, Conan didn't directly say Miyano Akemi, but the housekeeper instead.

"So that's it." Karasawa nodded clearly: "Then Miss Sakurada didn't come?"

"She went to participate in an event held by the town council." Conan explained: "I heard that she was going to give a speech as a representative of the event."

"Oh? It seems that Ms. Sakurada's life is still very fulfilling."

Raising his eyebrows, Tangze did not continue to ask about the other party's situation, but returned to the topic: "How much do you know about the situation of the deceased?"

"Not much." Conan said: "I only know that he seems to be a movie script writer."

Having said this, Conan told Karasawa about his encounter with the other party and his companions this morning.

During the day, a group of people, led by Dr. Ali, arrived at the Lakeview Hotel.

Because Dr. A Li came here to repair his own invention, so after arriving here, the little ones followed him curiously, wanting to see what Dr. A Li's invention looked like.

And this invention related to hot springs is actually a detector. After the machine is put into the hot spring water, a little man imitating Ishikawa Goemon will pop up in the machine to detect the current water temperature, water quality and sulfur. Content and efficacy are introduced.

The reason why it broke was because the wear of the movable part caused hot spring water to enter, causing the circuit to short-circuit.

"Excuse me, when can things be repaired?" After listening to Dr. Ali's judgment, the management staff of the hotel nearby asked, "Can it be done before tonight?"

"No problem, I have all the parts." Dr. Ali smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely modify the machine to be stronger."

"Let me tell you, haven't you finished cleaning yet?"

At this moment, a beautiful woman suddenly walked in and asked impatiently: "It's already past 1 o'clock!"

"Sorry, just wait for another ten minutes or so." The waiter said with an apologetic smile.

"Really, we all plan to take a bath in the hot spring before shooting." The beautiful woman with long hair said a little domineeringly.

"Well, don't be angry, you can still have fun after the filming is over." The gentle man with glasses and a beard smiled and reassured the other party.

"Eh!? You're not the actress Miss Natori Fukashio!?" Mitsuhiko said excitedly as he looked at the woman.

"Yes, that's me." Natori Fukushi nodded.

"It's true!" Mitsuhiko said excitedly: "You are the girlfriend who played the role of Masked Superman for a generation, right?"

"It was so cute that time!" Ayumi also said excitedly.

"He's also very gentle to everyone!" Yuantai quickly agreed.

"Ah?" Natori Fukushi's reaction seemed a little cold. She raised her head slightly and said, "So, I have indeed played such ridiculous roles before.

Could you please stop reminding me of that ridiculous character? "

"what?"

Hearing Natori Fukushi's words, the three little ones were unconsciously startled, and their looks at each other became complicated. They really didn't expect that the other party would actually say that.

"It feels completely different." Looking at the other party's bad attitude, Mitsuhiko whispered.

"On TV, there are gentle big sisters who are always smiling." Ayumi also echoed.

"Are you trying to be a big name?" Yuantai said unhappily.

Just as the three little ones were cooing, the man wearing glasses next to him suddenly squatted down and apologized to the three of them: "I'm so sorry, kids, she is concentrating on taking on the role now.

So even as an agent, it's still difficult for me to talk to her. "

"Character? Are you going to film a TV series here?" Yuantai asked curiously after hearing the man's words.

"I think you said you were going to shoot something just now, right?" Mitsuhiko recalled.

"It's a movie that will be released to the public tomorrow, which is the highest masterpiece of the "Bloodsmoke" series of movies, "Red Fountain." Of course, the script is written by me, the scriptwriter Tetsama Iwaji."

Before the agent could answer, an old man suddenly came over and started talking to himself, showing off, and then said with disdain, "Of course I can't understand what I'm telling you three kids."

And this "Blood Smoke Killer" movie tells the story of a killer.

Because he was assassinated in the hot spring town, the steam in the hot springs was dyed red by the snow, so he was named this.

The "Blood Smoke Killer" series is the debut work of the old man Tetsama Iwaji. It is divided into two different stages: the "Youth Chapter" when the protagonist is young, and the "Old Age Chapter" after he grows old.

And "The Fountain of Bright Red" is the only "middle-aged chapter" that describes his middle age.

The content of this movie is that the protagonist, a killer who decided to wash his hands of a certain case, decided to do an assassination without any reward for the proprietress of a hot spring hotel.

The content of this story is that the protagonist designed a perfect secret room murder.

That's probably the story.

Moreover, only this middle-aged story "The Fountain of Bright Red" was filmed in black and white a long time ago, but because it could not find a suitable actor, it has never been re-filmed.

Of course, these detailed information about the movie came from Conan, the "informant".

As for the protagonist, Tetsuyama Iwaji chose Temple Unpei this time.

After listening to Conan's retelling of the encounter between the two parties, Karasawa understood that this was the foreshadowing of the opening of the case.

"Is there anything else worth paying attention to in the future?" In order not to miss the information, Tang Ze asked: "For example, the relationship between the two parties."

"Temple Yunping seems to have other thoughts about Natori Fukushi."

Because there were children around, Conan spoke very cryptically: "After the other party's frivolous behavior was stopped by the manager, Dr. Ali recognized the identity of the manager.

His name is Tanzawa Junsaku, and he has played the protagonist of the youth chapter of "Blood Smoke Killer" before.

At that time, Dr. Ali also said that he hoped he could play the role, but the other party seemed to refuse for some reason. Then Natori Fukushi retaliated and said, this may be your chance to make a comeback. After all, there is also a scriptwriter who can change actors according to his mood. There is no telling what will happen in the middle.

Tetsama Iwaji also echoed Natori Fumio's words, saying that there are two or three actors who can replace him. "

"From what you say, it seems that Tetsuyama Iwaji is also on Natori Fumoshio's side, or is he trying to give his actors some power?" Karasawa said, touching his chin.

"Maybe they have the same intention."

At this moment, Haiyuan changed his clothes and came out and said: "After all, when the other party talked about the "wet scene", the expression on his face was disgusting."

After the other party finished answering Tangze's words, he stood there without much surprise on his face.

After all, although they were changing clothes in the house before, the conversation of several people was still clearly heard, and they naturally knew about Tang Ze's arrival.

"I see." Tangze nodded clearly, and then Ayumi came out of the dressing room. When the other party saw Tangze, she seemed a little surprised.

"It's great, I can actually meet Tangze Criminal here!" Ayumi said happily: "Now you don't have to worry."

"You're not scared, are you?" Tangze looked at Ayumi and said with a smile.

"I was shocked before, but I'm much better now." Ayumi replied after hearing this. There was indeed not much fear on her face.

This is normal. Although he is only a primary school student, he has experienced many more cases than ordinary people. At that time, he was only frightened by the sudden appearance of the corpse, but now that he has regained consciousness, he is no longer afraid.

"I almost understand the situation you encountered with the dead from Conan."

In order to prevent Conan from omitting any details in the narrative, Karasawa looked at Haibara and asked again: "Is there anything you feel more concerned about?

No matter what, some details worth paying attention to. "

"If I have to say something, there seems to be something wrong with that person's feet."

After hearing this, Haiyuan thought for a moment and said, "I noticed this at the time. Dr. Ali knew that person quite well and said that he injured his hamstring a few years ago and has been having problems walking since then. "

"The other thing is that when I went out to buy drinks at 4:30, I met the agent." Conan heard Haiyuan finish saying this and continued: "I went up to say hello to him, but the other person's attitude seemed... Very cold.”

"That's a bit strange." Mitsuhiko said in surprise when he heard this: "During the day, I felt that he had a very kind personality, and he even explained to us the reason why Natori Fukashi has a bad temper."

"Let's talk about that later. I'll go check the body first."

When Karasawa heard that the timeline had reached this morning, he knew that there should be nothing more to say, so he walked towards the hot spring.

"Haiyuan, please take a few children to stop those customers."

As Karasawa walked, he said to Haibara: "Ayako is also on the bridge now. You explain the situation to her. If there is an adult, it should be better to control the situation."

"I understand." Haiyuan nodded and walked outside with a few little ones.

The other three children only saw Conan staying alone in the room. Although they had a look of reluctance on their faces, they had no choice but to leave.

Apparently they were also a little unhappy with Karasawa's differential treatment of letting Conan stay in the house to investigate the case with him, while only arranging them to guard the door.

But there was nothing that could be done about it. Not to mention that Conan was a disciple of Tangze Criminal, but Conan's own reasoning was also not weak, and he had been to many murder scenes, so the three little ones were still convinced rationally.

So although they felt a little uncomfortable, the three little ones still obeyed Tangze's orders very honestly and guarded the gate of the female soup with Haibara and others.

Soon, Karasawa heard the voices of the three little ones calling Ayako. However, Karasawa did not meet and talk with Ayako anymore, but walked towards the female Yuuchi with Conan.

Entering the women's bath, Tang Ze saw a somewhat irritating bald man lying next to the pool. Tang Ze stepped forward to check and found that the body was still soundless.

"What about the cause of death?"

Seeing Karasawa checking the body, Conan asked.

"The corpse suffered a severe blow to the back of the head. Judging from the condition, it caused acute subdural hematoma and brain contusion."

Tangze said: "As for the time of death, there were no obvious signs of corpse stains, and the skin was still warm.

Even if the temperature is higher next to the hot spring pool, the temperature will still lose quickly in the open air.

The predicted time of death is around 5:00 this morning.

In addition, there was some foam on the messenger's heels, and even traces of foam remained on the floor tiles next to his feet. "

"There was soap opposite the deceased's feet."

Conan looked at the soap not far away: "The surface damage looks like it has been worn on the ground.

From the outside, it seemed that the old man accidentally stepped on the piece of soap on the floor and slipped when he was walking out of the bathroom after taking a bath.

Then, very unfortunately, my head hit the rocks surrounding the bath. "

"Yes, that's the case on the surface, but there are also doubts."

Tang Ze took over Conan's words and said: "First of all, the strange thing is that this is a women's bath, and the curtain outside is very clear under the light.

Even though it was dark outside, the old man shouldn't have gone to the wrong soup pool. "

"I'm afraid this is really man-made." Conan nodded in agreement. Their eyes fell on two parts of the other's body respectively, their eyes full of concentration.

"We can only see so much at the moment. Let's go out."

Tang Ze listened to the increasingly chaotic voices outside and said, "Before the police come, let me control the situation for now. By the way, have you called the police before?"

"Of course, how could you not call the police when something like this happened?" Conan looked at Tangze with an angry look.

"It's not because I'm afraid you'll forget."

Tang Ze smiled and said: "After all, Haiyuan and the others were busy changing clothes, and you were probably busy checking the body. It's normal that you didn't call the police first."

"How many cases do you think I have experienced? I will never forget this kind of thing." Conan rolled his eyes and said: "Let's go, wait for the local criminal police to come over, I just don't know if I can bring some acquaintances."

"It should be so. I remember that this seems to be the area where Henggou Criminal is responsible." Tangze thought for a moment and said, "Of course, I don't know if there are any personnel changes."

He remembered that the Henggou brothers did not seem to be in charge of one area all the time, and there were subsequent personnel changes. It was not clear who would come this time.

But it doesn't matter, no one can escape the tool man's life anyway.

While waiting patiently, Tangze began to conduct a preliminary investigation, and also dealt with the idea that several acquaintances of the deceased wanted to rush into the women's bath to check the situation.

Not long after that, he finally saw Henggou's criminal leader with a crew cut hurried over.
