Conan's Corpse Picker

"Can you come out?"

"..."

"??" The four high school students were taken aback, "...how could it be you?!"

Jiang Xia jumped from the branch to the wall, looking down at several classmates.

While stretching out his hand to pull the person against the wall, he answered the question just now:

"There was no one in my house, so I went out to see what was going on, and then I realized you were trapped by your parents.

"Later, I met Ms. Miyano and came to school with her... Sigh, if I had known you would come out, I would have waited for you to come together. The more people there are, the quicker it is to see."

"You didn't receive her call?" Kudo Shinichi climbed up the wall, and was taken aback when he heard Jiang Xia's words.

Immediately he figured it out by himself: "That's right, none of us have mobile phones, and you're not at home, and you don't have a landline..."

Kudo Shinichi quickly thought: probably Jiang Xia and Hui Yuan Ai went to the activity room together, and then Hui Yuan Ai started to check the information.

At the same time, because the bound book cannot be disassembled, it can only be read by one person.Jiang Xia couldn't be free, and time was precious, so he went to several incredible places to check the situation, and because of this, he missed Hui Yuan Ai's call.

……

Kudo Shinichi also quickly added the known information to Jiang Xia:

"We were able to leave home only after we received a call from her from school—Miyano said that she knew the truth about the 'Seven Mysteries', and asked us to come to the school to gather and plan to announce the answer. Later, she seemed to want to What did you say, but on the way, the phone was cut off suddenly."

After a few simple exchanges, Kudo Shinichi and Hattori Heiji have already climbed up the wall.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko are still under the wall.

Suzuki Sonoko raised her head and saw Jiang Xia's outstretched hand. She subconsciously held it and squeezed it, but she seemed a little shy about the "Night School" and had no intention of climbing up—this school is very Old, the atmosphere is eerie, not to mention those terrible legends.

Jiang Xia felt Suzuki Sonoko's entanglement, looked down at her, and said hesitantly:

"If you are afraid, why don't you stay outside first? ——The scope of this 'game' to solve puzzles should only be in the school, and it is probably safe outside."... If the group is destroyed again, there will still be a trace of fire, Put a few people back as they are.

Suzuki Sonoko was taken aback.

She glanced back at the foggy street, looked up at Jiang Xia, and suddenly climbed up the wall with hands and feet: "I want to be with you!"

Mao Lilan also recovered from the fright of the "corpse" just now.

She took a deep breath and climbed up the fence neatly: "Let's go. That Sakura-senpai also said that it's people, not ghosts, who cause the 'Seven Wonders'... I'm not afraid!"

This girl who looked very weak, said so, but she was still a little scared in her heart.

Jiang Xia watched helplessly as Mao Lilan encouraged herself, but she couldn't control the strength in her hand, and accidentally crushed a wall brick with a "click".

Chapter 1021 Did you bring the key

Jiang Xia looked at Mao Lilan's slender hands, then at the falling brick powder: "..."

I will remind the ghosts later that if you encounter Mao Lilan, remember to avoid confrontation, so as not to change a good detective dungeon into a magical martial arts movie.

……

The five people quickly entered the school, slipped into the building without a sound, and went to the activity room of the "Mysterious Phenomena Research Society" on the first floor.

There were no lights in the corridors, only dim street lamps shining through the windows.

A group of people stepped on the creaking floor and walked to the door of the activity room.

Pushing open the door, there was no one in the room, only the computer in the corner was shining brightly.

"...Where's Miyano?"

A few high school students looked around, a little wary.

Jiang Xia walked to the most conspicuous computer and looked down at the screen.

In front of the jumping cursor, there were two lines of pale words:

[The person who opens the seventh door will become a ritual sacrifice

——Magician after school]

……

"...a sacrifice?"

Kudo Shinichi also leaned over to the computer. Seeing the signature, he had a bad feeling in his heart, and whispered to Jiang Xia, "She shouldn't be..."

Halfway through the conversation, the door of the activity room suddenly slammed and was pulled open from the outside.

The high school students gathered in front of the computer turned their heads quickly.

I saw two more figures beside the door.

Sakura-senpai and the consultant teacher walked in, looked up and saw them, slightly startled:

"You also came to see that 'death ceremony'?"

After a pause, seeing the puzzled expressions on the faces of several students, Yingshu Liulizi seemed to understand something, and explained:

"I received a call just now. The caller was probably a second-year-old patient. He mysteriously said that a 'death ceremony' would be held here and asked me to come and visit. I thought someone was coming to our department to make trouble...You guys What? Why are you surrounded here?"

Seeing that her eyes just stopped on her, Mao Lilan had no choice but to say:

"Miss Miyano called just now, saying that she discovered the truth of the 'seventh mystery', let's gather here."

Yingshu Liulizi raised her eyebrows, and was about to say something when suddenly a flashlight flashed in the corridor.

An angry voice rang out: "Who's there?!"

Jiang Xia looked over Sakura-senpai's shoulder and saw a familiar guard.

——Since they tried to pry open the door to enter the "Unbelievable Place" during the day, the guard has been wandering around them, staring at them until they leave school.

Unexpectedly, the two sides were so destined. Not long after they returned to school, the guard came running again.

……

The doorman is a tall man.With a cigarette in his mouth, he approached with an explosion-proof stick and found a group of students at the door.

He put down his stick and looked suspiciously at a few people:

"It's late at night, what are you doing here? You are not allowed to enter the school to hang out at night!"

"It's not just wandering around. We lost someone just now and we're looking for it." Jiang Xia said like an ordinary player, "Have you seen Miyano-senpai—that brown-haired mixed-race girl."

The guard frowned, turned and walked out: "I haven't seen it before, I'll look for it, you guys hurry home!"

Jiang Xia followed naturally:

"Since we're looking for someone, why don't we go to the old school building together—I think she might be there."

The doorman glanced at him, wanting to drive him away, but his lips moved, and in the end he just snorted without making a sound.

Seeing this, several other high school students followed quickly, nodding in agreement, hoping to convince the guard.

In front of the "Six Incredibles", except for the ginkgo trees, the rest are distributed in the old school building.And now, "After School Magician" and "The Seventh Mysterious" are related.

In other words, if it was really the "after school magician" who took Hui Yuanai away, then they were probably also in the old school building——Jiang Xia's judgment was not wrong.

……

The guard looked at the tails falling behind him, and became impatient: "The old school building is about to be demolished, it is a dangerous building, no entry is allowed!"

"But look." Jiang Xia suddenly noticed something, he pointed at the window through the corridor, "someone went in."

"...?"

The guard stopped in his tracks and followed his direction to look over.

The others also turned their heads in unison.

Through two windows, they saw the corridor of the school building next door—the door of the classroom at the end of the corridor was opened, revealing a dim light of fire inside.The light is yellowish, rippling slightly with the breeze, like the fire lit by a candle.

Kudo Shinichi and Hattori Heiji saw the location of the classroom clearly, and were slightly taken aback: "Isn't this the 'biology classroom that can't be opened'?!" - It is said that when you come to look for things at night, you will see someone in the room Hanging "the first incredible"!

They ran to the window quickly and looked towards the classroom by the window.

From a distance, I saw a rough six-pointed star drawn on the floor of the biology classroom, and a candle was placed at the corner of each star, illuminating an area.

And directly above the candle, a pair of legs hang quietly.

A few people looked up dully, and saw a hanged man hanging in the middle of the biology classroom.

——"Miyano Shiho" hung in the room like a set, with the soft school uniform skirt stuck to his knees, motionless.

Besides, there was another person in the house.

The man stood next to the corpse, with his back to the crowd.He was dressed in a linen robe, holding a lighted candle in his hand, and his hair was messy like hemp rope, which looked like a wig.

It seemed to be aware of the peeping from behind.The mysterious man suddenly turned his head, revealing a terrifying mask on his face.

In the next second, the door clicked shut in front of a group of people, blocking sight.

"..."

The air fell into dead silence for a moment.

After a while, everyone recovered from the shocking scene one after another, and rushed towards the old school building next door.

……

The two sides are not far apart.

Sprinting at full speed, after dozens of seconds, they had already bypassed the winding corridors, entered the old school building, and saw the door of the "unopenable biology classroom" from afar.

Jiang Xia held the doorknob and pulled it hard.

The door remained motionless.

Hattori Heiji stretched out his hand in disbelief and tried, but he couldn't pull it either.When he thought of someone committing a crime right in front of his eyes, even though it was just a game, he still became anxious and looked at the guard next to him: "Where's the key?!"

The doorman was yelled at by him, and his voice was louder than him: "If I have the key, this classroom will be called 'Unopenable Biology Classroom'?"

Hattori Heiji:"……"

It makes sense...

Jiang Xia knocked on the hard door: "Break it open."

Hattori Heiji nodded.
