Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 470 Day and night defense, home thief is difficult to prevent

Dadong Ganyan took the teacup slowly, shook the empty inside, and knew that this plan to scare people had come to nothing.

I can't say to the empty teacup now that there were different brands of cigarette butts in the teacup, and I will definitely be questioned why I know this.

In addition, Dadong Ganyan was surprised that Qin Zhibo, as a famous detective, couldn't even tell the different brands of cigarette butts in the teacup.

Don't you know how to smoke?

Do you still carry fire on your body without smoking?
Dadong Ganyan clearly remembered that Qin Zhibo lit some of the candles with his own lighter just now.

Late at night was approaching, and everyone was unavoidably hungry.

So at the suggestion of Taketomi Masao, everyone split up to search for food hidden in the house, and check the defense gap of the house by the way.

He still couldn't forget Conan's tentative reasoning about other people on the island.

Although Qin Zhibo wanted to say that the starving man a year ago should have eaten everything that could be eaten here, but out of curiosity about Shimabukuro and the living environment on the island these years, Qin Zhibo agreed.

Daito Mikihiko, Kume Yoshitsugu, and Ikema Noburo searched the second floor in groups of three, while Qin Zhibo, Mori Ran, Conan, and Taketomi Masao searched the first floor together.

Regarding Qin Zhibo's personnel arrangement, Masao Taketomi nodded in agreement, "That's right, after all, there are girls and children here, and Mr. Qin is the only one who protects them. It will be troublesome if they are attacked."

Hearing this, Qin Zhibo was taken aback for a moment, feeling that the uncle's head might be a little funny.

Conan, who was standing at a low place in slippers, stroked the watch-shaped anesthesia gun on his wrist, comforting himself that as long as he had this thing, he would be invincible in 1v1.

"So it's like this, you know karate."

"Yeah, I even won the Metropolitan Contest some time ago."

Listening to Mao Lilan's impressive record, a drop of cold sweat dripped from the corners of Taketomi Ya's temples, and he sighed that he really can't be judged by his appearance.

However, Qin Zhibo, who was walking beside him holding a candle holder, knew that Mao Lilan was a weak demon, and as long as the environment was well rendered, he would not be able to bear the kind of fright at all.

Once frightened, her force value will drop to the state of a little girl.

This is a bit like the cowardly mushroom in Plants vs. Zombies.
Seeing that Mao Lilan was admired by others, Conan, who was walking beside him, was also a little proud.

Great, right?Hmph (airy). My wife!

In the careless Kan Dashan, the three of them plus a "Messenger of the Underworld" searched to the door of the last room.

Qin Zhibo opened the door first, and Mao Lilan shrank weakly behind Qin Zhibo, frowning and worried.

squeak--

When the door was pushed open and the candlelight entered the dark room, Qin Zhibo could see some clues about the room at a glance.

This room is the largest room on the first floor. The bed is neatly made, and the table and chairs are slightly tilted to a suitable angle to make this room more lifelike.

At this moment, Mao Lilan let out a small scream.

"what"

Conan hurriedly asked what was wrong, and Mao Lilan slowly raised her finger to the head of the bed, "There seems to be something on it."

Qin Zhibo and Conan went over to check with candles, and saw dense scratches engraved on the wooden board at the head of the bed.

If you look carefully, these scratches are some distorted "正" characters.

Hundreds of "positive" characters are densely arranged, which is strange in the dark environment.

Looking at these "positives", Qin Zhibo guessed that these should be the scale used by Keikazu Shimabukuro to live here to measure the number of days.

Conan on the side also immediately thought of the same conclusion, and judged: "These should be used by someone who lives here to measure time?"

Could it be the man who was trapped here and starved to death a year ago?

Judging from the number of "positive", he has lived here for at least four years, but if this is the case, how could he suddenly starve to death?

Could it be that he felt hopeless to escape, so he committed suicide in despair?
Conan held his chin, thinking about the engravings of the word "positive", while Qin Zhibo, who was at the side, had already turned to the cabinet next to him, opening drawers one by one.

The upper drawers were all empty, only in the last drawer, Qin Zhibo found a photo frame.

The old wooden photo frame is somewhat moldy, and the photo inside is a group photo of a middle-aged man and woman, and the man in it is the Mayor of Jincheng who entertained him yesterday.

Taketomi Masao walked over at this time, looking at the two people in the photo, he felt nostalgic, "This is the mayor and his wife. They were relatively young at that time."

Qin Zhibo subconsciously disassembled the outriggers at the back of this old-fashioned photo frame, and got another photo at the back.

There is still Mayor Jincheng in the photo, but the object of the group photo has become a young black long straight beauty.

Black and straight!
Qin Zhibo narrowed his eyes and pupils, pointed to Hei Chang on it and asked, "Who is this woman?"

Taketomi Masao reacted for a moment, and explained: "This is the mayor's only daughter, Miss Xiaodu. Back then, Xiaodu was beautiful and temperamental, and was sought after by many young people in the town."

"It's just that I didn't expect that she would be kidnapped five years ago, shortly after Mrs. Jincheng's death, and there has been no news since then."

Hei Changzhi turned out to be the daughter of the mayor of Jincheng.

Now Qin Zhibo has cleared up his thoughts, and it turned out that this is a story of "defense by day and night, and it is difficult to guard against house thieves".

Shimabukuro Keiwa has only seen the true faces of two robbers on this island, one of which is Hei Changzhi.

If this Hei Changzhi was the mayor's daughter, then everything would make sense.

Five years ago, she was kidnapped, but later, in order to get money to treat her "mermaid disease", she took the initiative to join the bandit group and robbed her home.

This is really a "filial piety" girl.
At this moment, Conan on the side also suspended his research on the notch of the character "正", and ran over to follow Qin Zhibo's reasoning progress.

"Uncle, aren't you a staff member of Kyushu TV Station? How can you be so clear about what happened here?"

Taketomi Masan was stunned for a moment, and replied in a deep voice: "Because my cousin and sister were maids who worked in the mayor's house at that time, but the cousin died at the hands of the gang of robbers later."

"Actually, it's not just me. Brother Chijian's mother and the mayor's wife are also sisters, so he and Miss Xiaodu should also be considered cousins."

Conan took the photo from Qin Zhibo, glanced at it, and asked again: "Where is this huge city tower in the background of the photo? I don't think I've seen it before."

Taketomi Masao was stunned again, and secretly complained in his heart: You, a child, have never seen so many things.
However, he still couldn't refuse Conan's "Answer all questions", and patiently explained, "That is not a watchtower, but the mayor's house. At that time, Miss Xiaodu lived in it, and often ran around happily in the house, feeling Acting like a princess living in a castle."

Princess!

Hearing the key words, Conan's brain got reasoning material again.
