Conan's Corpse Picker

He felt that Ryoichi Takahashi was almost gone, so he tapped his finger on Conan's head to silence the source of the noise that started howling for no reason.

Then he turned and went back to Mao Lilan's room.

……

In the middle of the night, there was such a commotion.

Others in the villa also woke up and gathered in Mao Lilan's room.

Takahashi Ryoichi had also changed his clothes and mixed into the crowd.

He caught a glimpse of Jiang Xia approaching from the corner of his eye, touched his thick hair with lingering fear, secretly glad that Jiang Xia didn't hit his forehead, but hit the side of his head, and the bruise would not be seen.

……

Knowing that dangerous elements had sneaked into the villa, everyone fell asleep.

Some people went to the balcony to check, trying to find traces of the man in the bandage, and some whispered about the origin of the man in the bandage, but the discussion failed.

in the living room.

Conan looked at the people in the room, leaned over to Jiang Xia and whispered:

"It's raining outside. If the man in the bandage had climbed onto the balcony from the outside and sneaked into our room just now, he would have stepped on the mud prints. But in fact, the room was very clean, with only a little rain mark... ..."

Conan did not say the remaining half of the sentence.But he believed that Jiang Xia must understand what he meant.

——The bandage man who attacked Mao Lilan was not an intruder from the outside world, but a member of this villa.

……

The enemy inside is the scariest, hard to guard against.

Of course, Conan thought, the suspect must first eliminate Jiang Xia.

Not to mention anything else, just now, just now, Jiang Xia and the bandage man appeared at the same time, which is enough to prove his innocence-Jiang Xia will never know the avatar technique.

Jiang Xia said perfunctorily, "Yes."

He glanced at Conan, feeling that since that KTV incident, Conan always treated him with an attitude of "You must know that I am Kudo Shinichi!"

Jiang Xia: "..." Why do you have to take off your vest?

……

Just thinking about it, Suzuki Ayako suddenly realized something.

She hesitated, "Why didn't you see Zhijiazi?"

The others were startled, and after looking at each other for a while, they ran to Tomokako Ikeda's room in a panic, trying to see where she was.

The door slammed open, and there was no one in the room.

At the same time, there were no traces of fighting such as bloodstains.A set of worn pajamas was thrown on the bed, and all the luggage was there—it seemed that Tomokako Ikeda changed her clothes by herself and left peacefully.

……

The handsome man with long hair looked at this scene and suddenly had a thought: "Could the person with the bandage be Zhi Jiazi!? She is usually weird. I heard that many novelists have eccentricities. Maybe she was crazy and replaced some kind of bandage." murderer……"

Conan interrupted his reasonable association: "The figure of the bandaged man is much thicker than that of Chikako's sister."

As he said that, Conan raised his hand and gestured: "When I stopped him, I hugged his waist, and it felt so thick."

Few people take what children say seriously.

Of course, no one paid any attention to the speculation that Ikeda Tomokako = bandage man.

The only thing that has reached a consensus is that someone is missing on a rainy night and cannot be left alone.

Gotta go find her.

……

After a few minutes.

A group of people took flashlights and umbrellas, went into the woods, and searched for Tomokako Ikeda separately.

Jiang Xia was in a group with Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko.

On the one hand, they are more familiar with them, on the other hand, this can also effectively prevent Takahashi Ryoichi from coming over and chopping an ax after seeing Mao Lilan.

……

Takahashi Ryoichi did have a similar idea, and he was anxious to silence it.

However, when they separated, he saw Jiang Xia walking beside Mao Lilan.Immediately, he silently rested his mind.

He was a little apprehensive—the pillow that Jiang Xia threw over just now might have given him a little concussion, and until now, his head still hurts from time to time...

In the end, Takahashi went to his old classmate.

……

The woods at night are very dim, and the visibility is almost only the light range of a flashlight.

Ryoichi Takahashi was out of breath, deliberately ran slowly, and gradually separated from the team of classmates.

After successfully placing the order, he turned around and went straight to the place where he had an appointment with Tomokako Ikeda.

He picked up the ax that he had thrown outside the house before, and found Tomokako Ikeda waiting in the woods far away.Without further ado, he chopped off her head with an axe.Then severely split the person into several sections.

Dismemberment is not just for venting.

This is an important part of Takahashi Manufacturing's alibi.

Takahashi Ryo threw the body parts away.Then he opened his shirt, took out the stuffing stuffed in front of his stomach, and after making room, wrapped Tomokako Ikeda's head and hid it.

In this way, from the outside, he is still that Takahashi classmate with a beer belly.No one would have thought that his "big belly" was actually a human head.

Chapter 63 Why Are The Police Still Not Coming?

The bloody scene that happened in the deep forest was unknown to others.

After some hard work, a group of people not only failed to find Tomokako Ikeda, but also found even worse news.

——The suspension bridge leading to the villa was cut off.

When they panicked and wanted to call the police, they realized that there was no signal and the phone line was cut off.

The current situation of being isolated from the world made the atmosphere in the villa suddenly tense.

……

As the host, Suzuki Ayako could only cheer up.

She found a box of poker and suggested that everyone find something to do.After staying up until dawn, you can turn over the back mountain and ask the residents on the opposite side of the mountain to call for help.

Takahashi Ryoichi did not join the poker team.

He looked upstairs nervously, and picked up the toolbox: "I'll go and repair the broken window on the second floor first—if the bandage man sneaks in from there again, things will be troublesome."

"Okay. Then I'll trouble you." Suzuki Ayako breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, there is Takahashi Ryoichi, who is good at repairing, otherwise, even if he is awake, he is doomed to have no peace of mind tonight.

Jiang Xia turned her head and looked at Ryoichi Takahashi's back thoughtfully.

On the calf of the enthusiastic student Takahashi, at some point, a fresh shikigami was picked up.

"..."

Jiang Xia instinctively touched the stick in his pocket.

……

The balcony on the second floor is a long strip of several rooms joined together.

Takahashi Ryoichi pretended to repair the windows, but in fact, secretly arranged a mechanism on the balcony.

——He first took out Tomokako Ikeda's head from his clothes, and fixed the head on an inflatable doll in the shape of a "bandage man".

In this way, at first glance, it looks like Tomokako Ikeda is being held in the arms of a bandaged man.

There is a long steel wire attached to the head of the inflatable doll.

In Takahashi Ryoichi's script.Later, as long as you hold the steel wire and let the "bandage man holding Ikeda Tomokako" pass by the window on the first floor, you can create "the bandage man hijacked Ikeda Tomokako and rushed in a certain direction" illusion.

Afterwards, he only needs to use the steel wire to pull the "bandage man" back, hide his head again, and go downstairs to chase the "bandage man who rushed out" with his classmates. The head was thrown back.Then "accidentally" found the body of Chikako Ikeda.

In this way, Takahashi Ryoichi and the bandage man appeared at the same time, and he has an alibi, so he can be exonerated smoothly.

……

Takahashi stood on the balcony.While checking the steel wire of the inflatable doll, I ran through the script in my mind.Feel like a genius.

He walked along the balcony to the middle of the second floor - this is a patio, separated from the people downstairs by only a railing.

Suzuki Ayako looked up and saw him, and said, "Come down and have some soup, I just made it."

Takahashi Ryoichi responded.

He pretended to take a step into the house.

Then suddenly turned around, as if sensing someone outside the house, and shouted towards the dark woods: "Who's there?!"

The other people in the living room were startled, looked up at him one after another, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Xia pushed away the chair and put down the poker.

On the second floor, Takahashi Ryoichi continued with a trembling voice, "There are people outside!"

As he spoke, he took advantage of the others to look out the window.

Takahashi Ryoichi sneaked to the side of the railing and pushed down the "head-holding bandage man" who was tied to a steel wire.

With a sound of wind, the "Bandage Man" held "Tomokako Ikeda" hostage, and flashed past the window on the first floor, eliciting exclamations.

Takahashi Ryoichi turned his back to the crowd, showing a triumphant smile.

He was about to pull the Bandage Man back.

But at this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out from the window on the first floor.

——Jiang Xia grabbed the "Bandage Man" by the corner of his robe.

The inflatable doll that was shaking halfway was forced to stop.

Takahashi Ryoichi grabbed the end of the steel wire, looked at the scene downstairs, there was a buzz in his head, and he froze on the spot.
