Chapter 1564 The strange tale of the sickle and weasel
"Yes, I am Nakadai Satoru who works as a writer at Tomei Monthly."
After hearing Tang Ze's question, the man smiled and introduced himself: "Please give me more advice."
"So Mr. Nakama came to the hot spring this time because of Kamaitachi's affairs?" Conan asked curiously.
"Yes, I came here today hoping that I could also take a photo of Kamaitachi."
Nakadai Wu smiled and explained: "After all, the previous photo was taken by someone else, I just published it.
The weather has gotten significantly colder recently, so I wanted to try my luck. "
"Um." Hearing this, Toyama and Ye asked out of curiosity: "Does Kamitachi's appearance have something to do with whether the weather is cold or not?"
"You'll understand if you think about it."
Nakadaigo smiled and said: "Most of the time, legends about Kama Itachi are spread in places where it snows heavily."
Speaking of this, he touched his chin with a look of excitement on his face: "So if it snows tonight, maybe he will show up floating in the snow!"
"I want to go back!"
After hearing what Taiwu said, Xiaolan beside her immediately slapped the table and stood up with excitement, and the corners of her eyes were even a little moist.
Obviously, when it comes to ghosts like Kamitachi, Xiaolan can't stay there for a moment.
"Don't be afraid!"
In the midst of everyone's shameful expressions, Toyama and Ye smiled and comforted their friends and said: "If we really need to use it together, just use my Aikido and Xiaolan's karate to easily solve it!"
"But, but the opponent is flying in the air with a sharp blade!" Xiaolan said with a slight cry in her voice: "We will be killed!"
"It's fine."
At this moment, a woman with short red hair suddenly appeared from behind Nakadai Satoru: "The legends about Kamaitachi are just random rumors.
Anyway, it's probably a group of readers who complained not to publish fake photos, so you had no choice but to come here, right? "
The woman paused and disdainfully sneered: "And that photo was originally submitted to another photo weekly magazine published by your publishing house.
And it was one of the candid photos taken in the open-air bath!
It’s just suspiciously funny! "
"What about Xiao Liu Luqian?" Tai Wu said angrily, "Why are you here again?"
"There's nothing we can do!" Xiao Niao Lu said angrily: "Who said our magazine and your magazine are competitors.
I thought I might as well write a story about your botched interview.
Of course, I won't let you lie and make it look like Kamaitachi doesn't exist. "
"It really does!"
At this moment, a primary school student suddenly appeared and looked at Kotori Midori and said, "I once saw Kamaitachi running across the water of the hot spring."
"is this real?"
After hearing the boy's words, Conan jumped off the stool and walked up to the boy and asked.
"of course it's true!"
The boy nodded seriously and said, "Although I caught up with him at that time, I didn't run on the water, let alone chase it.
But it seemed like I was under a magical spell. I couldn't move and drowned.
When I woke up, I found myself lying on the corridor dripping wet. "
"Is that right?"
Just as Conan opened his mouth to say something, a woman in a kimono behind the boy leaned over and said, "Kangping, what are you doing?"
"Mom!" Kang Ping saw the woman behind him and shouted with a smile.
"Has the room been tidied up?" the woman asked, "Didn't you say you were going to call your friends to hold a birthday party tomorrow?"
"I'm just about to start setting up." Kang Ping replied with a smile.
"Then go and decorate the room." The woman said with a smile.
After Kang Ping left, the woman looked at everyone and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, my son disturbed your conversation."
"I remember you are the proprietress of the hotel." Xiaolan looked at the woman and said unsurely.
"I am Ohno Takami, and it was my son Kohei just now." Ohno Takami bowed slightly and introduced herself.
"Gaomei, your hands are seriously cracked, are you okay?"
After the proprietress finished introducing herself, Nakadai Satoru, who was on the side, took Ohno Takami's hand without hesitation and expressed concern.
"It's okay." Ohno Takami smiled: "It's just that after my husband passed away due to illness last year, the workload increased and my hands got wet, so naturally I didn't have time to take care of them."
"Strange, do you two know each other?"
Yuan Shan and Ye asked curiously when they saw their actions.
"Yes, we are classmates in junior high school."
Ohno Kohei still held the other person's hand and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I published a strange photo in the magazine. Did it cause you any trouble?"
"No."
Ohno Takami shook his head and said with a smile: "Thanks to you, more and more tourists come here.
Well, because of Kamaitachi, there were fewer customers who dared to bathe in that open-air hot spring. "
"What a mess, it's really unpleasant to the extreme." At this moment, an old man on crutches said with a dissatisfied look on his face.
"Father." After seeing the old man, Ono Takami quickly broke away from the hand being held, her expression a little unnatural.
"Mr. Bonzo." Looking at the sudden appearance of the old man, Taiwu greeted him with a slightly embarrassed expression.
"The increase in guests due to monsters and monsters is only temporary. There is no way to make the hotel profitable!"
Ohno Bonzo ignored the two people's little actions and looked at Xiao Liulu with ill intentions: "Are you right, boss lady?"
"Then, I already rejected that thing a few days ago!" Xiao Liulu raised her hands and waved them, with a shy blush on her face.
It seems that Ohno Bonzo's words involve some unspeakable things.
"Forget it, when the rumors of monsters subside and the hotel can no longer continue to operate, you will probably change your mind."
Ohno Bonzo smiled maliciously and said meaningfully: "Of course, if someone is really killed by that Kamaitachi, that's a different story."
After speaking, Ohno Bonzo ignored everyone's expressions and left directly.
Looking at Ohno Bonzo's back, Karasawa's eyes became meaningful.
When Conan and Hattori Heiji were present, it was inevitable that a murder would occur.
And they just met exactly four people, and among them only Ohno Bonzo was a complete villain. In this case, the chance of him becoming a victim is over 80%, and the death star is flashing like crazy.
Judging from the conversation between them just now, the relationship between the proprietress Ohno Takami and Nakadai Satoru seems to be a bit unusual.
Ohno Bonzo seemed to be threatening the landlady to do something. In this case, it was enough to arouse the murderous intention of the two of them.
Of course, this is only part of what Tangze can see on the surface. After all, there is a seemingly unrelated person named Xiao Liulu.
In this case, the victim is easy to identify, but it is more difficult to identify the prisoner among the three.
But this is just the beginning. As long as the victim is targeted, there is no big problem in stopping the case.
Thinking of this, Karasawa looked at Ohno Takami and asked: "Is that old man just trying to force you to do something?
It seems that the other party still has ill intentions. "
"That...this..." Ono Takami's expression became nervous after hearing Karasawa's words.
"Oh, boss lady, if you really have something, just tell me!"
Yuan Shan and Ye looked at the expression on the landlady's face and couldn't help but said: "The person next to you is the famous criminal Tang Ze in the country!
If that old man threatens you to do something bad, Tang Ze Criminal will definitely be able to warn him not to mess around! "
"This..." Ohno Takami hesitated for a moment, and then said coquettishly: "Father-in-law, he wants me to get a female body... platter..."
By the time he got to the last four words, his voice was as low as a mosquito.
But the last four words were still heard by everyone. The next moment, it was like adding a bowl of water to the frying pan, and everyone was in an uproar.
"Is that what I thought..." Tang Ze's mouth twitched: "Is this a crime..."
"Yes, it's a crime of public indecency." Hattori Heiji on the side also echoed speechlessly, obviously not expecting that the old man just now would actually mention such an obscene way.
"He said that this way the number of customers would increase, but I think he was just joking."
The proprietress smiled shyly and immediately changed the subject: "When I got married, this place was merged with my mother's hotel, and the business has always been very good.
But when my husband passed away, there were a lot fewer regular customers, and the financial situation was indeed a lot lower, and I was somewhat unable to make ends meet..."
"Even so, Gao Mei, the platter of female bodies is absolutely not allowed!" Zhong Tai Wu warned with a worried look.
"It's better to just sell something." Xiao Liulu, chewing gum on the side, suggested, "For example, a vintage pot or something."
"To put it this way, there used to be a famous swordsman who imitated foreign lawn-mowing scythes and built a huge scythe."
After hearing this, Ohno Takami recalled: "It seems to be placed in the warehouse."
"That one should be sold for a lot of money." Xiao Liulu said while blowing bubbles.
"Wait, Scythe?"
After hearing the conversation between the two, Hattori Heiji quickly stepped forward, looked at Ohno Takami and asked, "How big is the scythe you mentioned?"
"I remember that the blade alone was almost 60 centimeters long." Ohno Takami replied after hearing this: "As for the handle, it is almost as long as my height."
"When you describe it like that, it seems very similar to the dark shadow of Kamaitachi in the photo."
Karasawa touched his chin and looked at Ohno Takami and said, "Madam boss, to be honest, we are here to investigate Kamaitachi.
I wonder if you can take us to see the sickle. "
"No problem at all."
Ono Takami smiled when he heard this and said: "To be honest, after being reminded, I suddenly wanted to go look for it.
If the hotel doesn't run well in the future, maybe selling the sickle would be a good idea. "
After Ohno Takami said this, he walked towards the warehouse, and everyone followed suit.
"So, is this case getting more and more interesting?"
Hattori Heiji looked at the crowd gradually leaving, looked down at Conan with a smile and said with a smile.
"Yes." Conan nodded and smiled.
"In that case." Hattori Heiji stretched out his hand to please and asked: "Then record that one."
"No, here you go." After hearing Hattori Heiji's words, Conan took out his phone to call up the audio and handed the phone to Hattori Heiji.
Conan's clean and cheerful attitude made Hattori Heiji stunned for a moment.
He subconsciously reached out to take the phone and deleted the video, looking at Conan in disbelief, "You actually gave it to me so easily?"
"I keep my word, but I don't care about others, hehe." Conan laughed maliciously when he said this, and his words also gave Hattori Heiji a bad feeling.
He subconsciously looked at Tang Ze next to him, and then saw the meaningful smirk on the corner of his mouth.
"Ah, you are plotting against me!" Hattori Heiji shouted angrily.
"Heiji, hurry up and follow me, I don't care about you!" Kazuya's words came from the front, and Conan and Karasawa speeded up their pace in unison.
Hattori Heiji was left with a depressed look on his face and said "Damn it", and then he followed helplessly.
Everyone soon arrived at the warehouse.
The warehouse seemed to have been built for some time. Although it was spacious, it also contained a lot of sundries.
As for the only light source, it was a simple small chandelier hanging from the ceiling with a yellow light bulb exposed.
"It's strange, why can't I find it?" Opening the box in the warehouse, Ohno Takami looked at the contents inside and said with a confused look: "Where did they put it?"
"In that case, let's help look for it together." Zhong Taiwu suggested actively.
"Really" Xiao Liulu looked impatient when he heard this, but still walked inside to prepare to help.
"It hurts!"
However, she didn't seem to notice that the lampshade hanging from the ceiling was about the same height as her. Without lowering her head, she hit her head directly on the chandelier.
Her cry of pain also attracted everyone's attention, but it was discovered that she had just hit her head and was using the chandelier to vent her anger. After that, it was not a big deal, so she searched for the huge scythe that was unknown where it was placed.
Although things in this warehouse are neatly organized, it is a bit dusty because it has been inactive for a long time.
After everyone searched through the dust, Tai Wu found a huge box in the warehouse.
After opening it, there was a huge sickle with a crooked handle inside. "Gaomei, this should be it, right?" "
"That's right!" Ohno Takami smiled when he saw the huge scythe in the box: "That's the scythe."
"It does look very old." Tangze said.
"It looks so expensive." Xiao Liulu commented while looking at the huge scythe picked up by Taiwu in the middle.
"My late husband once said it might be worth 1 million."
As soon as Ono Takami said these words, as if he had blasphemed some existence, the next moment the glass shattered!
