The second floor of the castle.

Conan has found something unusual.

The windows of the two rooms are obviously close to the wall, but it takes a long distance to run from the next room to here, which means there is probably a mezzanine between the two rooms.

Conan began to look for something like a mechanism.

At this time, Xiaosong came in and asked casually: "Have you figured it out?"

"Ah, I'm a little clearer." Conan took out a piece of paper.

On the paper is a thumbnail of the chessboard below, with white chess pieces forming a counterclockwise rotating arrow and black chess pieces interspersed in it.

Is this the answer to the puzzle that the fake old lady has been looking for for so many years?

I'm not saying that your brain is a little abnormal.

But it's true, normal people would think of having plastic surgery to look like an old man, and then hide in the house to find the treasure?

Why are you looking for treasure? Don't you want to live a life without worries? Now you have plastic surgery to look like an old lady, and you have become the boss of this family.

Not to mention the one who has the final say, you are also a person with a lot of say, and there are sons, grandsons, and servants to order around. You might as well just live here in your old age, why bother so much.

At this time, Conan has discovered the abnormality of the room.

The clock on the wall has stopped, but it has been hanging there, which is likely to be a mechanism.

Conan moved the chair over and immediately started to turn the pointer. As long as it is aligned with a certain time, it should be able to trigger the mechanism.

"Crack!"

Conan succeeded and was directly trapped in the dark room by the mechanism.

At the same time, Ayumi suddenly screamed.

"Ah!!!"

The shrill scream attracted the attention of many people, and Xiaosong and Xiaoai also ran to the next room.

Komatsu looked at the frightened Ayumi and asked, "What's wrong?"

"There's...someone!" Ayumi pointed to the tower outside with trembling hands.

"I just saw clearly that there was a figure on the tower, a very burly figure!"

"Maybe the servants here went to clean the tower." Mitsuhiko explained immediately.

Without waiting for Komatsu to speak, Xiaoai immediately said with certainty, "It's impossible. I just said that the tower has been abandoned for a long time. It's impossible for anyone to go there."

"Are you dazzled, Ayumi?" Genta expressed doubt.

"How is it possible? I'm definitely not wrong." Ayumi was very firm.

Before everyone could think clearly, Conan's voice suddenly rang from the next door.

"Hey, Komatsu, come here!"

Komatsu frowned and walked back quickly.

Then Conan was seen blocking the dark room mechanism, and there was a corpse in the dark room.

The body was Kayo Mamiya, the fake housekeeper, Mutsumi Nishikawa.

There was an obvious scar on Mutsumi Nishikawa's neck, and blood was still flowing out, indicating that she had just died.

Wait a minute!

Isn't this guy the boss of the castle? Why did he suddenly die now? !

Something is wrong, things are starting to go wrong.

"The old lady is dead?!" Ayumi hid behind Komatsu.

Ai leaned slightly, frowned slightly, and said, "Where is her wheelchair?"

"I didn't find it." Conan's face was gloomy.

He searched in the dark room for a long time, but found nothing.

So, this is definitely a murder case.

The murderer took Kayo Mamiya into the dark room, and then took the opportunity to kill her and hid in the dark room.

And there is another point.

The guy who knew the existence of the dark room must be very familiar with the entire mansion.

In other words, it is very likely that the murder was committed by an insider!

"Call the police." Conan didn't have time to think about it, but was ready to call someone.

A murder has occurred, and Inspector Megure and the others must be called first.

The movement here immediately attracted the attention of other people in the Mamiya family.

The first one to run over was Katsuo Tabata, who was holding a pair of scissors in his hand.

"The eldest wife?!" Katsuo Tabata exclaimed, standing there at a loss.

How could it be possible, how could the eldest wife suddenly die.

Mamiya Mitsuru rushed over after hearing the sound, and after seeing the dead eldest wife, he took a few steps back, with an incredible look on his face.

What shocked him even more was that there was actually a dark room in this castle, how could he not know about this? !

"What happened?"

The last person to come was a young man, Mamiya Takato, that is, Mamiya Mitsuru's son.

But he was not his biological son, but the son of his dead wife and her ex-husband.

In other words, they have no blood relationship at all.

In

After seeing the body, Mamiya Takato was also stunned and at a loss.

"Call the police!" Conan could not help but remind him.

Tabata Katsuo finally reacted and hurriedly dialed the phone.

It should not be connected.

Komatsu had this feeling.

Normally, the phone line should be cut off at this time, which is the so-called blizzard villa mode.

Sure enough, Tabata Katsuo ran back quickly and brought bad news.

"It's bad, the phone can't be connected, and the power is out at home."

"What?!" Mamiya Mitsuru's face changed drastically, and then said:

"Have you checked the electrical box?"

"I checked it, and there is nothing abnormal." Tabata Katsuo answered in detail.

"It seems that I can only go down the mountain to the Metropolitan Police Department to report the case." Mamiya Mitsuru had a headache.

His driving skills are not very good, and he might capsize in the ditch at that time.

Facts have proved that he was a little worried.

Because the garage is on fire.

"Oh no, sir, the garage is on fire!" The maid ran in in a hurry.

Well, I knew this would happen.

Komatsu had expected it, so he was naturally calm.

On the contrary, Conan's face was a little bad.

This was undoubtedly done by the murderer.

It seems that the murderer will continue to commit murders.

How dare he kill people in front of me, damn it!

Conan was a little angry.

"Boom!"

Thunder streaked across the sky and heavy rain poured down.

"This is troublesome, I can't get out at all." Mamiya Man's brows were twisted into a knot.

He was still thinking about running down the mountain and finding a phone booth to report the case, but now his idea was completely futile.

"No way, let's talk about it tomorrow, let's put away grandma's body first." Mamiya Takato looked sad.

Many years ago, he lost his mother, and now he has lost his only relative, how can he not be sad?

As for Mamiya Mitsuru, they were really unfamiliar with each other. They were only nominal father and son.

"Don't move the body. Keep the crime scene. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the police to investigate and collect evidence." Conan stopped Mamiya Takato.

Mamiya Takato heard this and immediately gave up the idea of ​​moving the body.

In the end, they just put the body here and blocked the door of the dark room with heavy objects.

After doing everything, everyone left the room.

Komatsu also perked up. Something was wrong. Naturally, he had to be careful. He didn't want any accidents to happen.

Because of this little episode, Ayumi and others lost their minds during dinner. They just had a few bites and hurried back to their rooms to rest.

However, Ayumi, Genta and others didn't notice that when they returned to their rooms, a pair of eyes appeared behind them.
