Conan: Leisure Days

However, in the face of this question from Kogoro Mori, Masaki Katagiri shook his head to show that he did not quite understand.

"These are all Xiaobull's masks." This was an old voice that answered Maori Kogoro's question, which shocked Maori Kogoro directly.

When everyone looked at the source of the sound, they found an old woman and a middle-aged woman appearing at the door on the west side.

"You should be Ms. Su Fanghongzi." Mauri Kogoro was the first to say hello. After all, he is the owner of this villa. As long as she takes care of her, there should be no major problems.

After Su Fanghongzi nodded lightly and admitted it, she also said with a smile: "Everyone is willing to come here, it's really full of brilliance, I wonder how you feel about my collection?"

After Su Fanghongzi finished speaking, she brought the woman beside her to the mask hall.

Faced with such a question, of course Kogoro Maori couldn't answer, after all, he really didn't like these masks.

Takayanagi Ichiro didn't shy away from anything, and said to Su Fanghongzi: "Ms. Su Fang, I didn't expect you to move to this place. You must know that your previous charity dinners were in other more public places."

"Thank you, Mr. Gao Liu, for taking the time to come. This time it is a banquet to confirm guests, so I chose to stay in this villa. I hope these masks I have collected will not disturb your elegance." Su Fang Hongzi responded to Gao Liu Ichiro.

"Not only has she always insisted on doing charity, but with the hobby of collecting masks, Ms. Su Fang is really enjoying life more and more."

"It's just that when people get old, they want to find something to pass the time. It's far better than Mr. Gao Liu and you young people."

Takayanagi Ichiro and Su Fanghongzi did not continue their conversation, because the fortune-teller Nagarayao asked Su Fanghongzi, "Does the mask of Xiaobull you mentioned just now refer to these masks on the wall?"

"Yes, these are the legendary [-] masks completed by the Spanish sculptor Xiaobo Condres shortly before his death." Su Fanghongzi admitted the identity and number of these masks.

This made the fortune-teller Nagaray Haruka's aura a little nervous, and he said, "However, Xiaobull's mask is only the official name. In private, what everyone calls more should be the cursed mask."

After hearing the word cursed mask, Takayanagi Ichiro's eyes first fell on Nagara Haruka, and then turned to Su Fang Hongzi.

Maori Kogoro and Matsudaira Mori were of course a little nervous. Maori Kogoro asked, "Ms. Su Fang, why does this Xiaobull's mask have the origin of the cursed mask?"

"Because Chobble Condres was a tragic sculptor who, despite his extraordinary talent, fell into the trap set by his brother who envied him.

In the end, his status, fame and even property were robbed by his brother and nothing was left.

Xiaobull has been depressed since then, completely despairing of human nature, and he kept carving these masks as if he wanted to be possessed by something.

Just after he carved the [-]th mask, he took his own life.

The masks scattered around his body at that time were all stained with blood, and the scene looked as if the masks were sucking his blood. "This is Su Fanghongzi's explanation of the origin of Xiaobull's mask.

Chapter 188 The masked messenger participates

However, this is only the origin of the Xiaobull mask, as for why it became the cursed mask, it stopped.

"Miss Nagara, you should know some reasons, right?" Ichiro Takayanagi asked Haruka Nagara.

To Takayanagi Ichiro's question, Nagara Haruka nodded and admitted, saying: "Because of my occupation, I still have a certain understanding of these things, but I haven't seen the Xiaobull mask with my own eyes before, everything is rumor."

"What are those rumors?" Matsudaira asked.

"After Chobble's death, his reputation was at peace.

However, the two masks he carved before his death were also scattered in the hands of different people all over the world.

Moreover, those who have masks will not end well in the end, and they should all end in tragedy. " Nagara Haruka responded to Matsudaira Mori in this way.

This response made Matsudaira and Maori Kogoro swallow their saliva, because they felt a little creepy, thinking that Su Fanghongzi would not give them this mask after the end.

"Can you tell me about the rumors?" Ichiro Takayanagi continued to ask Nagara Haruka.

"The general manager of a bank in the UK was killed when he fell off his horse while riding a horse with a friend the day after he got one of the masks.

After a French jeweler got a mask, the jewelry store was robbed by robbers, and he was shot and killed by the robbers. "Nagara Haruka just gave two examples that made Mori Kogoro and Mori Matsuda more uncomfortable.

And Su Fanghongzi said at this time: "So, after I don't know when it started, Xiaobull's mask was rumored to be an evil existence that would suck the blood of the holder, and everyone was afraid of it from then on. Not enough."

"But now you have collected these two hundred masks, will it be alright?" Matsudaira asked nervously.

"Mr. Su Fang, I really don't know much about masks, so I don't really want this kind of mask as a gift." Maori Kogoro expressed his position directly.

Although Su Fanghongzi didn't say anything about giving a mask, Maori Kogoro still felt that it would be better to show this attitude earlier.

After listening to the words of Kogoro Mouri and Mori Matsudaira, Su Fanghongzi smiled and said, "If Mr. Mouri doesn't like the mask, then I won't force it out.

However, I do hope that you can like the collection in my villa. As for Xiaobull's mask, you don't need to worry about it at all.

Because I have already invited a psychic teacher with high magic power to come here to seal up the curse and evil nature of these masks, and now they are just some works of art. "

After Mouri Kogoro and Matsudaira heard these increasingly supernatural words, the two of them looked at each other and found the unease in their eyes, but now they don't want to say it in front of the protagonist.

And Takayanagi Ichiro said at this time: "Ms. Sufang, sometimes the evil thoughts of human beings in the real world are more terrifying than any curse."

Takayanagi Ichiro's remarks made Su Fanghongzi stunned, because Takayanagi Ichiro's remarks were implying something.

"Mr. Gao Liu, why did you suddenly say that?"

"Because when I received the invitation letter from Ms. Sufang, I also received another letter, which said that I should not attend this party, and the name of the letter was the cursed masked messenger. "Takayanagi Ichiro responded to Su Fanghongzi.

After hearing this, everyone's faces were very shocked, and Mouri Kogoro took out a piece of paper from his arms and said:

"Mr. Gao Liu is right, I almost got into a car accident on my way here and found such a piece of paper on a tree trunk that fell on the driveway.

The content mentioned above is almost the same as the content of the letter Mr. Gao Liu received, and the one who signed the letter is also the cursed masked messenger. "

After Takayanagi Ichiro and Mouri Kogoro spoke, the rest of the people couldn't be idle.

"Mr. Mori, I also received a letter with this content three days ago, and it was also sent with the invitation letter." This was Katagiri Masaki's reaction.

"I got the same letter."

"me too."

After Matsudaira Mori and Nagahara Haruka said this, it means that everyone who came to the party received the same letter.

· · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·???????????????

However, except for Mouri Kogoro who received it on the road today, the other four did not put the letter on them.

The guests she invited all had such questions. Su Fanghongzi immediately asked the woman standing behind her, "Hedai, did you do such a prank when you sent the invitation letter?"

The first thing Su Fanghongzi thought of was a prank, and she immediately asked her secretary.

Faced with Su Fanghongzi's question, the secretary of course immediately shook his head and denied it, and said, "Teacher, I just sent the invitation letter you explained, and I didn't do such a prank."

At this moment, an unfamiliar voice interjected.

"My office also received a strange letter recently."

After everyone saw it, this was a blond young man, dressed in a punk-like outfit, and wearing sunglasses in the room.

"Fuya, why are you here so late?" Su Fanghongzi asked the blond man with a more intimate tone.

"I'm preparing for the national tour, so it shouldn't be a problem to be a little late." After Fuyuya said this, she walked to Su Fanghongzi's side.

And Kogoro Mouri asked the blond man, "Mr. Fuyuya, can you show me the letter you received?"

"The sender's name is not written on the letter, even the recipient is written very strangely. If you want to read it, it is not impossible." Fuyuya did not reject Mouri Kogoro, but directly put The letter was handed over.

After getting the letter, Kogoro Mouri first looked at the envelope outside and commented: "This person wrote the text very neatly in order to hide his handwriting."

Then, instead of asking others, he just tore open the envelope and took out the content page inside.

"Tonight's cursed mask will suck blood.

From the waiter who cursed the mask. "This is what Mouri Kogoro read according to the content page, which made the atmosphere of this mask hall immediately dignified. Mouth.

Chapter 189 Coincidence

Before, Takayanagi Ichiro said at first that he received a threatening letter from the masked messenger, and the three people who came to the banquet said that they also received the same letter.

Now, here comes a young man who seems to have a good relationship with Su Fanghongzi, with a strange letter in his hand.

This is different from the previous threat letter, because this letter made a forewarning of the crime, saying that the cursed mask will start to suck the blood it has, that is, the blood of Su Fanghongzi.

After Maori Kogoro put down the letter, he said to Su Fanghongzi, "Mr. Su Fang, in my opinion, it would be better to call the police to handle this matter."

However, after listening to Maori Kogoro's suggestion, Su Fanghongzi didn't care about this matter at all and said:

"I don't think it's necessary to take this to heart, since I started philanthropy, threatening letters like this have never stopped.

This time, it's just a rumor that someone used Xiaobull's mask, but I need to apologize for the bad influence on you. "

Su Fanghongzi's words are also reasonable, Maori Kogoro did not force the police to deal with this matter.

However, everyone said that there was no need for Su Fanghongzi to apologize, because they only received threatening letters and did not lose anything.

After that, Su Fanghongzi left the mask hall, and asked Takayanagi Ichiro and others to sit here for a while, and then they could eat after a while.

……

It didn't take long before a maid came to ask everyone to go to the cafeteria on the east wing to eat.

It's the same as the one in the villa before, it's all a dish for one person.

However, the cook at the villa here did a good job of dinner. Kogoro Mori and Mori Matsudaira had forgotten the terrifying meeting in the mask hall and began to praise the dinner here.

After listening to these compliments, Su Fanghongzi also raised her glass to express her gratitude to everyone.

At this time, photographer Katagiri Masaki asked somewhat formally: "Ms. Su Fang, can I ask a question?"

"Just ask." Su Fanghongzi didn't refuse such a request, she simply agreed.

"How did you come up with the idea of ​​hosting a charity gala for children who went to their families because of a car accident?" This is a question from Masaki Katagiri.

Hearing this question, Mauri Kogoro and Matsudaira also laughed, while Su Fanghongzi was silent for a while before saying:

"Actually, I started doing charity work as early as 15 years ago, but when I had such an idea, it was five years ago that the woman who had been taking care of me all these years ran into someone and ran away.

So, after that incident, there was no way for me to remain indifferent to the aftermath of the traffic accident. "

And the secretary and Dai also said at this time: "Although the outside world often attacks our president with the idea of ​​making a name for himself, but the facts are completely different from the report."

"I don't know what happened to the hit-and-run person?" Chang Liangyao asked Su Fanghongzi.

"She committed suicide." Su Fanghongzi hadn't answered this question yet, but someone answered it immediately, the real blond young Fuyuya.

Except for the people in this villa, everyone's eyes fell on Fuyuya.

"Actually, the hit-and-run person was my mother.

My father passed away when I was very young, and my mother has always looked after me.
