Conan: This repairman is not very knowledgeable

Except for Tokatsu Junya, who had already guessed the answer and ran to set up the secret room, everyone came to the restaurant.

"Eh!"

"You've finished one portion?!" Mr. Chuiwei couldn't help but look surprised when he saw that Lin Feng ate so quickly even though he had only arrived two or three minutes earlier.

"It's okay, I'll go make another staple dish." Jia Gu Lianzo said and walked back to the kitchen.

“I can’t say if ten portions are enough…”

Conan saw that Lin Feng had already started to eat other dishes and could not help but say helplessly.

I actually worry about the food reserves of this small island...

"I don't know if you have noticed a detail." Bai Ma glanced at a pot of lavender placed in the corner behind him.

"There seems to be lavender in our room, right?" Conan poked Hattori and asked after noticing Hakuba's gaze.

"That's right, there's also a toolbox next to the flower pot." Hattori nodded while eating.

It seems that everyone has these two things in their room, including the room of the fake director just now.

Not to mention the flower pot, the toolbox contains some common household tools, such as screwdrivers, hammers, wires, saws, pliers...

"If the toolbox is needed to create the secret room, then what does lavender represent?" Bai Ma Tan wondered to himself.

"Lavender……"

"The Lavender Villa Murders."

"If I were to associate lavender with this, the best I could think of would be an incident that happened in Shikoku a year ago."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu took a bite of salad and said thoughtfully.

"I've also heard of this incident. I remember the person who was killed was the daughter of the family living in the villa." Conan also recalled the Lavender Villa murder case.

That was also a secret room.

Initially, the police inferred that the rich girl committed suicide, but more than half a year later, they suddenly said it was a homicide.

"What about the criminal in this incident?" asked Bai Ma.

"I heard that he committed suicide before being arrested," said Nanatsuki Koshimizu while eating.

"boom!"

Mr. Hammertail suddenly stood up, put his hands on the table, his eyes widened, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. I wonder if it was because he ate too hot.

"what happened to you?"

Everyone looked over.

Why are you so startled while eating?

"I, I forgot my cigarette in the room." Mr. Hammertail smiled at everyone and walked out of the room.

"I'm going to the bathroom." Nanatsuki Koshimizu seemed to have finished eating, so she stood up and followed him out the door.

Almost twenty minutes have passed, and it should be almost ready over there.

"..."

Lin Feng glanced at Hattori, Conan, and Hakuba, and said, "Stop eating. Why do you only know how to eat..."

"???"

……

"Boom boom boom!"

There was a knock on the door.

"I'm coming." Tokitsu Junya in the room glanced at the time and showed surprise. There was still more than half an hour before the time he agreed to complete the secret room. Who would come here at this time?

"It's me." "I also guessed the method of the secret room, and I want to compare the answer with you." Nanatsuki Koshimizu said with a smile after taking a look at the opened toolbox by the wall.

"Oh?"

"Unexpectedly, it was us two who guessed the method of the secret room in advance." Tokatsu Junya smiled and motioned for the other party to speak first.

Even though Hattori Heiji and Hakuba have solved many cases, they might have been able to do so with the help of their parents. They are not that smart.

"It's about the window."

"I noticed that the four sides of the wooden window here are fixed with long screws. As long as all the screws are unscrewed, the wooden window and the window frame can be removed intact." Koshimizu Nanatsuki said the first step of this technique.

"That's right, the next step is to cut these screws with pliers." Tokatsu Junya did not hide it and directly took out the pointed end of a handful of screws from his pocket.

These were just cut by him.

"Next, quick-drying wood glue. This glue will become very strong in more than half an hour." Nanatsuki Koshimizu walked to the toolbox, took out a tube of wood glue that he had opened and checked, and said.

"Haha, it seems that you are indeed very smart and much better than those guys. Screw the broken screws back in, apply wood glue, install the window from the outside, and then jump down from the building. The secret room will be created."

Tokatsu Junya nodded with a smile on his face, and took down the wooden window along with the window frame. He was already prepared.

"I was only sure of this after seeing you open the woodworking glue. I didn't expect you to come up with the answer so quickly." Koshimizu Nanatsuki said with a smile, with his hands behind his back.

"A year ago in Shikoku, there was a murder case at Lavender Villa. I wonder if you've heard about it."

"I was the one who solved that case. At that time, the criminal used this method."

Tokiczu Junya proudly showed off the cases he had solved.

"Really? Can you tell me about it?"

Koshimizu Nanatsuki remained calm, still with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face.

"It was almost half a year after the incident that I went to the villa where the lavender grew."

"At the time, I found a lot of these cut screws outside the window of the room where the crime happened..."

"No one would have thought that this case, which had been determined to be a suicide, would actually have such a big secret..."

Tokitsu Junya also put his hands behind his back and patted the wooden window in front of him and said.

"That's really weird. When I went to investigate the scene, I didn't find anything. How did you..."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu clenched the hammer in her hand, and when she said this, she burst out with all her strength and smashed it at the so-called high school detective in front of her.

"You, what did you say?!"

Unfortunately, the hammer did not fall, and Tokatsu Junya was so scared that he sat on the ground.

"You really do what you say."

Lin Feng grabbed Yueshui Nanatsuki's wrist and said helplessly.

The door was not locked, and they were all outside. When the repairman heard the showdown between the two, he burst into anger and rushed in, barely grabbing the other person's wrist.

"You..." Of course, Nanatsuki Koshimizu heard the voice behind her, but she still chose to swing the hammer. At this time, she looked at Junya Tokatsu with hatred on her face.

If only a little earlier, a little earlier...

"If possible, can anyone of you explain the ins and outs of this incident?"

Bai Matan walked forward and asked the two of them with one hand in his pocket.

"Where are the other two people?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki found that Kotani and Tsuchio were not there.

"They're all in the restaurant."

"Let's go..." (End of this chapter)
