Chapter 359 The Merged Corpse, in black text
The room fell silent for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, a piercing scream exploded like a stun grenade.

"Aaaaaaah!" ×n
The classic screaming group is back in action, but the current situation is indeed understandable. After all, even some brave men would be terrified if they suddenly saw a bloody human head appear next to them, let alone someone who has never even killed a chicken in their life.

For example, Matsushima Banharu, who is standing behind everyone at this moment.

Admittedly, she had killed someone, but Chu Ke only died from poisoning. Even the dismemberment scene she witnessed later while hiding in the kitchen was separated from her by a thick cabinet door, so she didn't see it clearly.

That can't compare to the breathtaking scene we're witnessing now.

Kogoro Mouri swiftly pulled Sonoko and Ran behind him, then dribbled Conan over like a ball with his feet, looking around to check the surroundings.

Although dribbling is a dangerous move, Conan still glanced at Kogoro Mouri with some surprise.

The card that was falling from the sky was caught again. The content on it was a bit more straightforward than the riddles in the previous announcement, which had a touch of literary flair, but it was still a riddle, making Conan want to give Kid's butt a good kiss with his electrified big feet.

"There seem to be words on the back..."

Conan's height also gave him an advantage; he looked up and immediately saw the text on the back of the paper.

Mori flipped the piece of paper over, and a line of handwritten text came into view.

Put it back in its place, complete the key, dispel the black fog, and escape.

Kogoro Mouri frowned slightly.

The increasingly bizarre situation left no room for laziness, forcing them to revert to the spirit they had shown as police officers.

"Put it back in its place? What does that mean?" Sato Seiyu approached, equally bewildered by the words on the card: "Does it mean we have to put this head back in the kitchen?"

His understanding of the original location was the place where Chu Ke died, which was the kitchen at the beginning.

Mori and Conan exchanged a glance and understood what was going on.

'I didn't expect this kid to think the same way we do.'

Kogoro Mouri sighed inwardly and immediately wrapped Chuko's head with a cloth: "I should know where this is now."

"?"

----------

Third floor, master bedroom.

The heavy solid wood door was pushed open, and everyone filed in.

Because Mori had indicated not to turn on the lights, almost everyone saw the dismembered diagram that was illuminated by the moonlight as soon as they entered.

The high school girl who had been following behind Sato Seiyu turned slightly pale and covered her mouth.

The dismemberment drawing was so lifelike that, under the moonlight, the splattered blood and flesh seemed to transcend dimensional limitations and scatter in mid-air.

Kogoro Mori, cradling his head wrapped in cloth in his hands, swallowed hard. He took a few steps forward but then stopped, looking somewhat bewildered.

He felt that the so-called "putting it back in its original place" must be related to this painting, perhaps referring to finding the cross or something similar in the painting to unlock its secrets.

But after leading everyone on a tour of the entire manor, they hadn't seen a similar cross, so they had no choice but to come to this most eerie room.

Just as Kogoro Mouri was at a loss, the moonlight flickered outside the window, and a ray of moonlight shone through the gemstone onto the head wrapped in cloth.

The next moment, a gust of wind suddenly rose in the sealed room.

Before anyone could be surprised, a gust of wind blew away the cloth covering Chu Ke's head, and his previously tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, flowing out black, foul blood.

An inexplicable force lifted the head and placed it in the position of the head in the portrait, amidst the incredulous gazes of the crowd.

Then, a torso emerged from the painting, and the two slowly merged together, returning to the painting. Everything was the same as before, like an illusion, with only the restored head in the painting revealing what had happened before.

The strong wind carried away my body heat, and goosebumps, like bookworms, swarmed all over my body.

At that moment, everyone's worldview was shattered.

No one could scream anymore; in this situation, everyone felt that even their own heartbeat was too loud and would attract attention.

After a brief silence, the air distorted slightly, and a character that looked like countless black ants wriggling and twisting appeared out of thin air.

----------

Meanwhile, in the recreation room.

Takahashi Muhaku was tightly bound to a chair here, his eyes staring blankly at the floor, where a mesmerizing portrait seemed to be painted on the carpet beneath his feet.

He was jolted out of his daze by the sensation on his hand.

"you!"

Takahashi Mubai stared in shock at Jiangchuan Yingxue, who had volunteered to stay and look after him, and gripped the utility knife that was handed to him tightly.

In response to Takahashi Mubai's shock, Jiang Chuan Yingxue simply reached out and touched Takahashi Mubai's face with a complicated expression.

"does it worth?"

Takahashi Mubai knew exactly what she was asking, but instead of answering, he asked in return, "Why did you save me?"

"Because... I am your older sister."

"!?"

Takahashi Mubai suddenly raised his head and stared straight into the eyes of the woman in front of him.

"Don't you remember?" Jiang Chuan Yingxue simply stroked Gao Qiao Mubai's eyebrows with her fingers: "That alley, that group of human traffickers..."

"I also want to thank the Sato family. If it weren't for investigating them, I would never have been able to find you so easily..."

"But you're doing this for a woman who can't even remember your name..."

As she finished speaking, Jiang Chuan Yingxue's voice choked with emotion.

As she recounted her story, a long-forgotten memory surfaced in Takahashi Muhaku's mind.

That was a long time ago, when he was still in kindergarten in the countryside.

On his way home from school, he was lured into an alley by candy, and it was his older sister who sacrificed herself to buy him time to escape.

“We… Mom and Dad and I all thought… we all thought you were already…” Takahashi Mubai’s face slowly twisted, filled with resentment, memories, and disbelief.

"No, I can't leave! If I leave, what will happen to you?" Suddenly remembering something, Takahashi Mubai dropped the utility knife in his hand as if it were a hot iron.

His sister had sacrificed half her life to save him, a wound he could never erase.

How can we allow this to happen again?

"Stop talking, just run. I'll hold them off." Jiang Chuan Yingxue smiled with relief, covered his mouth, picked up the utility knife, and handed it back to Gao Qiao Mubai.

"Just think of it as being for me..."

Before she could finish speaking, a black script, as twisted as if composed of ants, appeared out of thin air before their eyes:
The lost body has been partially restored, and the door to survival seems to be opening.

Your actions have angered it, and it will now appear in reality.
