When we went out, the footprints were partially covered by snow and were no longer accurate. Now a while later, that's even less accurate.

As for judging who is the murderer based on the distance between steps, that is not accurate either.

Because what Lu Ren said before was all from the Sherlock Holmes detective series.

The experience of the great detective Sherlock Holmes.

Conan naturally admires and likes this great detective.

But no matter how much he likes it, Conan has to make it clear that many of the great detective's experience in solving crimes can no longer be used.

Because times have changed.

Sherlock Holmes is so famous that he has already become a well-known detective.

There's nothing wrong with this, it's just that some bastards with ulterior motives used the detective books as a guide to committing crimes and began to learn anti-criminal investigation methods from the books.

For example, Lu Ren mentioned the pace. Some criminals will deliberately control the length of their steps to confuse the audience.

Conan has been exposed to this method more than once or twice before.

It's more troublesome, but there's nothing you can do about it.

What's more, some are so crazy that they directly imitate the plot in the book to commit crimes. Even more of an asshole.

Time flies and it is already late at night.

After dinner, Haiyuan continued to sit on the sofa in the living room.

This point was far away from her rest time, and it was quite boring to stay in the room alone, so she just chatted with Lu Ren for a while.

Normally, Lu Ren would be happy to chat with Huiyuan, but now his mind is not on that. He is waiting for the appetizer.

This appetizer is not a meal, but refers to the fourth act of the Villa Murder Case.

Act IV can be divided into two parts, the appetizer and the main meal.

The main meal is Yonehara strangling another scumbag, and there’s not much to say about it.

The appetizer was more interesting. Mihara moved the body out from under the bed, and then designed a timing device using universal fishing line and rubber bands.

To put it simply, the cold weather will freeze the stretching rubber band, and then the doorbell will ring.

This will help you create an alibi for yourself.

This approach is more risky.

The door to Mihara's room was basically broken, and Lu Ren doubted that the door would ever be touched again.

He even dared to drop the door and show it to Mihara.

In this case, the crime is basically committed in an open environment.

Whenever anyone passes by there, Mihara will be exposed.

But for now, everything is going well.

Lu Ren went back to the room once after dinner, opened the window and looked down.

At that time, the mechanism had already been designed.

Then he returned to the living room and stayed with everyone.

Being identified as the murderer by these people and then reversed, this kind of drama is enough once.

Another half hour passed before the rubber band snapped and the doorbell rang.

The first deceased appears.

After going through the familiar screaming process, the next step is to study the cause of death.

Just before this session started, there was an unexpected episode.

The thinner male teacher, when he saw Sugiyama dead, screamed and ran away, holding his head, and returned to his room on the second floor.

Lu Ren saw this man's reaction completely.

That's it, the next dead person is locked.

If I remember correctly, this scumbag is called Shimoda Kohei.

Then Lu Ren began to speak for Shimoda, making his escape behavior look more reasonable.

"It's human nature to feel scared when you see a dead body. There's nothing strange about it. Let Mr. Shimoda calm down."

When it cools down, it will be cold.

Everyone accepted Lu Ren's statement and began to study the cause of Sugiyama's death.

"Did Mr. Sugiyama freeze to death?"

"People who freeze to death are usually naked because they feel their body heat up before they die and take off their clothes involuntarily. They also smile."

Lu Ren put on white gloves and turned Sugishan over, turning from his back to facing everyone, "Does it look like he is smiling? And there are strangulation marks on his neck. He was strangled to death."

After solving the cause of death, Lu Ren carried the body to Mihara's original room.

Because the door was broken, Mihara had moved to the second floor.

His behavior was blameless, and no one else wanted to touch the body. So they each left to find other things to do to change their mood.

Only Huiyuan continued to follow Lu Ren.

After the dead person appeared, her vigilance went up a notch.

The murderer may still be waiting outside, and the safest place right now is undoubtedly Lu Ren's side.

After Lu Ren put the body on the bed, he climbed out of the window.

Huiyuan was silent for a moment after watching this scene. She stood by the window and looked around for a while, and found that Lu Ren was walking towards the door. Then she felt relieved, climbed out of the window, and walked quickly to Lu Ren.

【fishing line】

get.

【Broken rubber band】

get.

Lu Ren put these two props into his pocket and used them as evidence for a while.

"Is this a timing device?"

There must be something wrong with such an inexplicable thing buried in the snow. Haiyuan quickly figured out how to use these two things together. "Is the murderer someone from the villa?"

"Yes. That person did what happened before."

That's fine, as long as it's not Yonehara-sensei.

Lu Ren's answer made Haiyuan sigh in relief.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 149 It’s over

When Lu Ren Huiyuan returned to the house, he heard another bad news.

Due to heavy snowfall and road closures, the police will not be able to come for a while and may not be able to come until tomorrow morning.

This time the phone line was not cut.

It's not that I forgot, but it's not necessary. The world's technology has quietly stepped forward to a new level without even realizing it.

Even on this mountain, cell phones still have signal.

Unlike before, when you enter the mountains, your mobile phone is useless and you have to rely on the phone.

Lu Ren is optimistic about this. Maybe after a while, he will be able to play with his previous mobile phone.

Nowadays, this kind of button phone is really hard to use.

In the living room, Lu Ren and Sentoshi chatted about work matters. Haiyuan was bored and began to close her eyes and fall asleep. Then the phone in her pocket vibrated again.

Who is this?

Haiyuan took out his phone and looked at it, and found that it was Conan who had sent a text message.

【Look back.】

Strangely, after Haiyuan did as he was told, he found Conan leaning against the corner and waving to her, as if calling her over.

"Is something wrong?" Haiyuan stood up and walked to Conan.

Conan glanced at Lu Ren and asked in a low voice, "What did you and Brother Ren do when you went out just now?"

"Take a walk after dinner." Haiyuan paused for a moment and began to add reasons, trying to make this sentence more convincing. "Someone died here, and the murderer hasn't been found yet. It's safest to stay with him."

"That's true." Conan looked around to make sure that a wild little orchid wouldn't suddenly appear next to him, then continued in a low voice, "Then have you revealed your identity to him?"

"No."

Haiyuan reacted now, opened his eyes that had been squinted before, and stared at Conan with a look that said, "Are you an idiot?"

"You refused to say what you relied on. Then how could I rashly reveal this to him? In my opinion, your behavior of exposing your identity to Hattori Heiji is very risky and unwise."

"He discovered that on his own." Speaking of this, Conan also felt a little guilty and began to make amends for himself, "I think Hattori is trustworthy. It's not a bad thing to have an extra helper."

Everything is ‘what you think’. Huiyuan began to feel impatient. She now felt that Lu Ren had made a wise choice by not having an affair with Conan.

Tied to the same rope as him, I don’t know how I died.

"Then do you think that he, who has been with you for a longer time, has noticed something abnormal about you? I think his reasoning level is 10% higher than yours."

"It's just a little faster than me." Conan refuted this point first, and then continued, "I guess there is, but if he doesn't say it, then I won't take the initiative to point it out."

"Unspoken understanding?"

"Yeah. I guess he knows something, but he doesn't want to get involved in this matter, so he pretends not to know. If he doesn't want to, then I can't force him into it. He doesn't owe me anything in the first place."

"Ah, ah, you are so considerate. Amazing." Haiyuan began to applaud, "I am starting to look at you with admiration."

"."

Your level of yin and yang is on par with Lu Renru.

Did they all study at the same training institution?

Conan ignored Haiyuan's teasing and said seriously, "Let's get down to business."

He told Haiyuan exactly what Sentoshi had said in the room before.

After listening to what Conan said, Haiyuan fell into silence.

She knew what Conan meant. The deceased was most likely the murderer of the case three years ago, and the man who just ran upstairs with his head in his arms was also the murderer.

What Conan meant by telling her this was to ask her to ask Lu Ren what he thought about this matter and to protect the person upstairs in advance.

Just, why?

Why should such a scumbag continue to live in this world?

Lu Rendu had already concluded this matter before, saying that the man upstairs left because he was scared after seeing the corpse.

Doesn't that already indicate your attitude?

Don't interfere, just watch.

Judging from Conan's IQ, he definitely knows this, but he still has unrealistic illusions.

He fantasized that Lu Ren was just like him, and was on the side of complete justice.

Different.

"I'm just a child. He won't listen to what I say." Haiyuan said lightly, "You don't have a tacit understanding with him."

After finishing speaking, Haiyuan turned to the living room and sat on the sofa again.

"Hey, I thought you went to rest." Lu Ren asked.

"not sleepy."

"It's already ten o'clock." Lu Ren looked at the time and said, "Let's go to bed early. Keep a regular schedule. Keep a regular schedule in the underworld, but you can't make friends in the earth."

"I don't need friends."
