Conan the Hell Puppet Master

"Actually, when I was in the deceased's bedroom, I always wondered that it was such a perfect secret room to kill, but it didn't use the trick of suicide to set it up. Later, after I figured it out completely, I realized that Lan Chuan set up the scene first, and he didn't at all. After entering the room, she killed Ms. Su Fang."

"How can you kill someone if you don't go in!"

The expression on Lan Chuan Dongya's face was a little strange.

"I was just talking for fun, I won't kill someone in the air."

"You can't kill someone in the space between your own room, but if you use the power of the cursed mask, you can still do it in the next room."

Gao Yuanzhao said "cursed mask"

At that time, Lan Chuan's face suddenly changed.

And the people around were even more confused.

Matsudaira Mori asked directly: "Do you think, Officer Gao, you also believe in the rumor that cursed masks will kill people?"

"I don't believe in curses, it's just that Xiaobull's mask helped a lot in this case. I'll show it to you now, Officer Xiaolin!"

"Yes!"

Xiaolin's voice came through the gap between the wooden bars on the sealed door.

"Please stand away from the person over there."

Kobayashi's voice fell, and a knife was thrown from the gap, startling Kogoro who was standing beside him, but before he could complain, Gao Yuanzhao's explanation began.

"First of all, I asked Officer Xiaolin to prepare a knife of the same style as the murder weapon, and put an elastic band on the top of the handle, and then... the part of the mask."

After Gao Yuanzhao finished speaking, a blood-stained mask passed through the gap sideways and threw it into this room, with... "Then put the elastic band through the holes in the mask's eyes, like a string of beads, and slowly put it down. Come here, and use the elastic band on the handle of the knife to pass through the hole in the mouth, and thread them one by one."

The masks were slowly put down, and Gao Yuanzhao didn't waste time talking about Lan Chuan's crime.

"I think Mr. Lan Chuan went to the hall to get the key after we fell asleep, opened the west door of the hall, took out the murder weapon and the mask, put the key back, and started to put on the knife and mask with an elastic band as I said. , and put them into Ms. Su Fang's room one by one, as they are doing now."

"But after the mask is put in, can it really solve the mystery of the secret room as you said?"

Katagiri's words were still full of doubts, but Gao Yuanzhao was not angry either.

Because he paid attention to Xiaolan's trusting eyes, he also saw that the tarot card in Nagara Haruka's hand was "chariot"

, represents overcoming difficulties and achieving success.

With the support and trust of the harem, he doesn't care about other people's opinions, he just threw down a sentence.

"Just look down"

As time passed, more and more masks were accumulated on the ground, and Conan's eyes also lit up, and it seemed that he also understood the techniques of the secret room.

On the contrary, Lan Chuan's complexion was getting worse and worse. Although the weather was cool, beads of sweat were already oozing out of his head.

"This is the last piece!"

With the sound of Kobayashi's voice and the landing of the last mask, the preparations for the technique were finally completed, and Gao Yuanzhao's explanation began again.

"The next thing is... tighten the elastic to get hold of the 200 masks."

As Gao Yuanzhao's voice fell, Xiao Lin also began to pull the elastic band at the party, and all the masks were pulled up one by one with this movement, and layered on top of each other like the limbs of a centipede.

Everyone's expressions changed when they saw this strange scene, and the two sisters Xia Li hugged each other again.

"Please do the math, if the thickness of a mask is 1.

5.

Then 200 masks are stacked together, and the length is at least 3 meters, and the victim is lying on the bed, and the distance from the wooden fence is probably that long, so you can feel it."

After Gao Yuanzhao finished speaking, this "centipede"

Really came to life, twisted the body, put the "mouth"

The sharp knife stuck to the man's throat.

"At this time, just press hard on the mask with a hard object..."

The elastic is taut, the mask leans forward, the blade pierces the throat.

Chapter [-]

Seeing the scene of the centipede stabbing its throat, everyone was stunned, unable to speak for a long time, Gao Yuanzhao could only break the silence by himself.

"Mr. Lan Chuan is like this. He successfully killed Ms. Su Fang without entering the bedroom at all. The only person who can enter this room, which can only be entered on the west side, is Mr. Lan Chuan who was not in his bedroom at that time. ."

Kogoro is just nervous, not himself... Even if he is a fool, he can see the traces left by this technique.

"It turned out to be the case, so only the first mask had a lot of blood on it, and the next few masks only had blood on the mouth, that is, because the trajectory of the blood spray was only the hole in the mouth, after killing someone... "

"Finally, just cut the elastic band off!"

Gao Yuanzhao said, a dodge came to Xiaolan's side to protect her.

On the other side, Officer Xiaolin also cut off the elastic band, because the tension of the elastic band was very tight, and it broke so suddenly, most of the masks were scattered on the ground, and a few bounced far away, not only hitting Gao Yuanzhao, but also Called Kogoro.

Gao Yuanzhao is to protect the "harem"

The performance of taking the mask with bare hands, Kogoro is... unlucky and slow to respond.

But he didn't complain this time either, because the scene in front of him stunned him. After the mask was scattered, the scene in the whole room was exactly the same as what he saw through the transom.

"This is how the secret room is formed, Mr. Lan Chuan, is there anything else to explain?"

"You are just... your wishful thinking. You said that I was not in my room at the time to complete this trick, but I woke up after hearing Miss Honami going out to get the key."

Lan Chuan Fuyuya's voice is very loud, probably hoping to use this to boost his mood.

"What evidence do you have to prove that I was not in the room at the time."

"The only people who can enter this room with evidence are the few who live on this side. After excluding Kogoro and others, only you and Hoonami are left, and Hoonami was woken up from the room by Ran. I'd like to ask you, can anyone prove that you were in the room at the time?"

"I..."

Before Lan Chuan Fuyuya spoke, Kogoro also made a stab.

"I remember that Mr. Lan Chuan suddenly appeared at the door when we heard the masks scattered!"

This time, Lan Chuan Dongya's criminal behavior is almost a stone hammer.

"Maybe the prisoner didn't use the method you said. Maybe the police officer said you wrong in the first place."

"You still don't want to admit it?"

Gao Yuanzhao shook his head and said with emotion.

"Have you forgotten your original intention to kill Su Fang Hongzi? Did you not want to explain it in a dignified manner when Mr. Katagiri Masaki was present?"

After listening to Gao Yuanzhao's persuasion, Lanchuan Fuyuya's face was full of struggles, while Katagiri Masaki was surprised.

"Mr. Police Officer, what do you mean? My wife has already left. I won't take anger on Mr. Lan Chuan because of Mr. Lan Chuan's mother, not to mention that Lan Chuan also committed suicide..."

"My mother didn't commit suicide!"

In the end, Lan Chuan Dongya still had mixed expressions of sadness and hatred in his eyes, and finally his eyes were fixed on the vampire mask made into a dummy.

"My mother was killed by Su Fanghongzi, because the person who hit and ran 20 years ago was not my mother at all, but Su Fanghongzi. This vampire not only convicted my mother, but also killed her because she was worried that the matter would be exposed. ."

Lanchuan Dongya's revelations are even more powerful than Gao Yuanzhao's reasoning, and everyone... simply couldn't accept it.

Conan's expression is...... .

And because Inaba Kazuyo accepted the "gift" from Gao Yuanzhao last night

and solicitation, so I did not stand up to speak for Su Fanghongzi.

"How could she not be a philanthropist?"

Finally, Kogoro broke the silence.

"Don't be kidding, she is a hypocritical vampire. I also knew this two months ago. I was sorting out my mother's relics, and I actually saw the record of this incident on the cover of the diary."

Lan Chuan Fuyuya said excitedly, but after meeting Katagiri Masaki's inquiring eyes, his mood stabilized a lot.

"I didn't lie, my mother had an alibi at the time, and the accident happened on the night of October 10!"

"Yes!"

Katagiri nodded.

"31st of the month"

Minaho seemed to have thought of something and repeated it suspiciously.

"Isn't that your birthday, Lan Chuan?"

Hot Nami, who has a consonance, immediately picks up.

"Yeah, that night, my mother was really celebrating my birthday, how could I go out and drive and hit and run?"

Katagiri Masaki also had an indescribable feeling, shaking his head all the time, muttering in his mouth.

"I'm sorry... Mr. Katagiri, I'm so sorry for not telling you the truth before!"

After explaining this apologetically, Fuyuya Aikawa pointed at Kazuyo Inaba again.

"And that woman's charity work, from beginning to end, is not a matter of guilt at all, but trying to make money from the charity, that's all, you secretary should be very clear!"

Kazuyo Inaba's expression changed, and he cast his pleading eyes on Gao Yuanzhao.

At the same time, she is also very grateful that her actions in the bathroom have allowed her to be on the "boat"

Shen went ashore successfully before.

"Mr. Lanchuan, on this issue, in fact, I came here this time to find out the accounts of the charity organization under the name of Su Fanghongzi, and the Kazuyo Inaba you identified has indeed participated in the donation. Falsification of accounts and profit from it, but..."

Takatoshō stood in front of Inaba and Daishin.

"Just last night, I persuaded Ms. Inaba to abandon the dark and cast light. She didn't arrive at the scene immediately before, and she also got my instructions and is secretly collecting evidence in the study."

"Is that so, it's great to gather evidence to bring that guy down, she's a vampire in a charity mask."

Lan Chuan hated only Su Fanghongzi, and really had no problem with the flatterer Inaba and Dai.

"Actually, you should have told the police about this kind of thing long ago, why did you do this kind of thing"
