Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 338: Rescue island

In addition to the staff’s room on the first floor of the wooden house, there are warehouses, kitchens and restaurants. On the second floor, there are four rooms for the detectives.

Except for the different directions, all the houses are almost the same in furnishings and structures. It has to be said that broken is a broken point, but it is undoubtedly a perfect reasoning stage.

If it is really a TV station program, the person in charge has a good vision.

"There is still no signal," Hattori kept his chin on his mobile phone, "and the woman with Ye didn't know if there was any mess..."

"It's useless," Bai Ma Tan elegantly wiped the corners of his mouth. "This is a completely isolated island, and it can only travel by boat."

"Do you still use it?" Hattori put away the phone boringly, and was unhappy with the white horse for no reason.

I don’t know if it’s because of the similar family background, I feel that I am innately unmanageable...

After drinking the lipstick tea, Hattor turned to the hammer tail and asked, "Uncle, you should almost tell us now, right?"

"Huh?" The tail of the mallet gnawed at the chicken legs awkwardly.

"That's why you pretended to be a director to participate in this detective Koshien project," Hattori asked. "If it's not to test our ability, what is it for?"

"No way, no way," the mallet tail smoked. "If I say it, I won't get the agreed performance fee."

"Is it a daily TV?"

"Ok."

"By the way, Brother Joto," Conan said suddenly curiously, "Did you know this Uncle Hammertail and Uncle Kagu from the kitchen from the beginning?"

"No," Gao Cheng retracted his gaze from the window. "I only met the butler of Jiagu when I was in Shikoku."

"Shikoku?"

"I've done something over there before."

Gao Cheng looked at the tail of the hammer: "As for this uncle...I don't know exactly?"

Tsukio smiled and wiped his sweat: "Because the Joto Detective is very famous, I am worried that I will be dismantled..."

"Really?" Hakuba asked with a smile. "Mr. Hamo, can you please answer me a question? When I walked into this hotel, I noticed the scent of lavender everywhere..."

"It's not just the dining room, it seems that every room has a pot of lavender, and a tool box next to the flower pot...Does these have any special meaning?"

"This," the mallet tail said hesitantly, "I actually don't know..."

Kogu Renzo walked out of the kitchen with the dessert after dinner, "Isn't it what a detective should do to solve these questions? According to my understanding, it should be like this."

"That's right," Baima Tan said with a light smile, "but in complete isolation from the outside world, even if you want to investigate..."

"The Lavender Villa Murder Incident," Koshisui Nanatsu interrupted suddenly, and glanced casually at Gao Chengdao, "I can think of the incident that happened in Shikoku in the past that is related to Lavender."

Conan said unexpectedly: "I also heard that the eldest lady who lived there died in the secret room. At first she thought it was a suicide, but half a year later, it caused a commotion. I heard that because the police did not handle it properly, a maid there was Unfortunately, I committed suicide, and it caused a lot of heated discussion... Brother Kioto, did you go to Shikoku because of this incident?"

"It just happened to happen."

Gao Cheng put down the tableware and stood up in silence, squeezing out a smile and said: "Okay, the meal is over, and the mystery of this secret room can almost be solved. As a guest of this event, I will come first."

"What? You have solved the mystery of the secret room?" Hattori straightened his eyes and asked suspiciously, "Could it be some inside information? Maybe this time the secret room is the same as the lavender incident, and you just know... …"

"What are you worried about? Anyway, I am not a representative of the competition." Gao Cheng waved his hand and left the restaurant. "Anyway, I will set up your room as a secret room. It will take almost an hour. During this time, you and Conan will stay in No peeking here."

"Who do you think would peek?!" Hattori gritted his teeth with a black face, "This guy definitely did it on purpose! Isn't it just that there is no sense of existence?"

"Uh," the tail of the mallet swallowed, and his face was ugly, and he stood up and said, "I'll go out for a while..."

"what's happenin?"

"I'm done smoking cigarettes, I'll go to the room to get them..."

The tail of the hammer left in a panic, leaving Hattori with a few faces thinking.

No one is a fool, the tail of the mallet is always wrong, as if afraid of something.

"Is this guy hiding something?" Hattori muttered.

"Probably."

Koshishui Qitsuki kept staring at the figure of Gao Cheng disappearing at the door, his eyes trembled again and again, and he seemed a little absent-minded, and then left the seat with a tight palm.

"I think I'll go to the bathroom too."

"What are these guys up to?" Hattori suddenly wanted to see how Gao Cheng arranged the secret room, but couldn't hold back his face, and sullenly settled the dessert after dinner.

Having said that, every time you encounter these guys, you will be involved in the incident. Don't make any trouble this time...

Hattori stared at the rest of the restaurant unscrupulously, and took a bite of a snack, with a look of bitter hatred.

On the second floor of the hotel, Gao Cheng returned to his room and directly picked out the screwdriver, pliers and adhesive from the toolbox.

The method of the secret room is indeed exactly the same as the original lavender villa, and lavender is deliberately placed in every corner, even if he does not want it.

I can't even think of it.

And even Koya Renzo, who was a housekeeper at Lavender Villa at the time, appeared here...

According to the memory, you only need to remove the entire window frame, cut off the fixing screws in half, and fix the rest with adhesive to restore it to the original state. Wait until the adhesive is completely dry, the whole process takes almost an hour...

Gao Cheng didn't do anything immediately, but leaned against the window to look outside.

The rain was getting heavier, and under the light, a figure was seen running to a small wooden house next to it under the rain, and hurriedly prying the door lock.

A jacket and overalls can be seen through the dim light.

It's the mallet tail guy...

"Boom." Before Gao Cheng continued to observe, the door of the room was knocked suddenly.

"Detective Kioto, I am Koshisui," Koshisui Nanatsu hesitated at the door, "I..."

Gao Cheng opened the door directly: "Come in."

"Eh?"

Yue Shui walked into the room with some confusion, feeling like Gao Cheng was waiting for her.

"That one……"

Yue Shui glanced over the tools placed in front of the window, his expression stiffened: "It turns out that Detective Jodo has really unlocked the secret room technique, just like I thought..."

"Last year," Gao Cheng interrupted looking out the window. "It was probably also this time. I went to Shikoku for errands."

"Last year? Could it be..."

"Yes, I did intervene in that case and discovered this so-called secret room technique."

"Yes, is it?" Yue Shui couldn't react to Gao Cheng's confession, and said with a dazed smile, "But... why?"

Gao Cheng put his hands in and said in a deep voice: "I was still thinking about who set up such a bureau under the name of Japanese TV Station. I didn't expect that it was you who came here... You seem to want to find the detective who intervened in the case. Right? What are you going to do now?"

Yue Shui looked at Gao Cheng's back closely, his eyes covered with water vapor, and his eyes flushed while biting his lips: "I just want to ask...why? You are a famous detective, why don't you tell the truth to the police? If the police knew in time, the maid might just..."

"Sorry, it was too late when I arrived at the police station."

Gao Cheng closed his eyes and shook his head slightly.

"I just happened to pass by that time. I heard that there was a murderer in the Lavender Incident before I went to see it. When I discovered the problem, the maid had already jumped into the sea... After all, I was only a detective, not a prophet, and there were times when I could do nothing."

"But, but... isn't it you who provided the police with evidence of homicide?" Yue Shui asked in confusion, "If it's not you, then who is it!"

After a pause, Yue Shui suddenly thought of the TV show that Gao Cheng participated in at the time, and his face paled: "Totsutsu Junya?"

Gao Cheng looked back at Yueshui and asked, "Can you tell me why you care about the Lavender Villa incident so much?"

"Because," Yueshui tightened his fingers, "because that maid is my good friend..."

"So I found these people for the maid?"

"The media did not announce the name of the detective who handled the case. The only clue is that my friend called me before the incident, saying that it was a high school detective who emphasized a strange speech and suspected that she was the murderer and wanted me to help her..."

Yue Shui looked uncomfortable.

"But when I passed by, the case was closed... The accent is strange, and I can speak in front of the police. There are only a few I can think of, but Toshizu Junya can't get in touch..."

"It's okay to find the butler of Jiagu," Gao Cheng asked in doubt. "What's the matter with that mallet tail?"

"He is the thief who fought against the window of the crime." Yue Shui said with his head down.

"So, Mr. Kagu knew about Miss Suicide but didn't tell the police. Both of them can be said to indirectly kill the maid," Gao Cheng nodded slightly, "Then you called them, is it... "

"Yes," Yue Shui regretfully said, "The rescue boat will not come. I have agreed with the captain. If I talk about this to others, I won't pay him the rest of the money, because I'm dead. I don’t want to let them go. I’m also considering what to do if the detective sees through my plan... It’s a pity that Tokitsu Junya didn’t come...

Koshisui seemed to be fatal, and turned around to leave: "I'm sorry, Detective Kioto, you have also been involved, and I apologize to them for me."

Gao Cheng's expression remained unchanged: "Do you know why the police did not announce the truth, and the media did not report my identity?"

The footsteps are slightly paused.

Gao Cheng continued: "After all, only a few cut screws can't tell you anything. The police can't prosecute without evidence. Even if the maid is really the murderer, it can't stop it. You can even check it again sooner or later. Found it wasn't homicide...

"But when everything hasn't started, your friend suddenly jumped into the sea and committed suicide. Once the report came out, the local police in the interrogation took the brunt. Then the police will shirk all the problems on the maid, and even characterize the maid as the wrong one. Commit suicide in fear of sin..."

Gao Cheng lightly looked at the undulating waves in the distance: "The reality is so cruel. If your friend waits, waits for you or me, even if the police give up... But there is no such thing, and we can't do anything."

After a pause, Gao Cheng's ears moved slightly, and he turned around and shouted at Jiagu Rensan who was listening silently outside the door: "Mr. Jiagu, can you come in?"

Yue Shui looked at the door in doubt, and watched Jia Gu Lian San push the door in: "You..."

"Mr. Kagu began to doubt when he saw me, but he didn't say anything," Gao Cheng looked directly at the silent Kagu Renzo, "right?"

"Sorry," Jiagu Liansan whimpered with tears, choked to face Yue Shui, "I'm really sorry, for the sake of the lady's reputation, I really can't say it... I thought the maid's suspicion would be cleared soon, but I didn't expect it. Become like that..."

"No need to apologize to me," Yue Shui turned his head away, "It's too late to say anything. The radio equipment on the side of the hut has been destroyed by me before, and the people who stay on this island can't live..."

"Someone will save us..."

Gao Cheng didn't worry at all, with a faint smile on his face.

"Because my little assistant is still there."

"You knew it from the beginning?" Yue Shui narrowed his eyes, staring at Gao Cheng in a daze, "but you obviously didn't even realize that the hammer tail was a fake director..."

"It may be the detective's intuition," Gao Cheng vaguely walked out of the room and said, "Go back to the restaurant, everyone is still waiting."

Yue Shui stood in the room without moving, looking at Gao Cheng's back with a complicated expression.

At the restaurant on the first floor, Hattori pressed the tail of the mallet heavily on the seat: "Uncle, can you please explain it now?!"

"What happened?" Gao Chengcai returned to the restaurant when he saw Hamou's face in horror.

"What else can I do? This guy wants to sneak away!" Hattori pressed the tail of the mallet angrily, suddenly froze, and reacted to look at Gao Cheng, "Didn't you say that the secret room technique takes an hour? It's all right so soon. ?"

"Nothing, I just try it casually." Gao Cheng chuckled and returned to his seat.

He also saw the mallet prying open the door lock of the cabin just now, but it is estimated that nothing was gained. Apart from the damaged radio equipment, there was only one generator in the cabin.

"Detectives of the city and the city," Hammer tail faced Gao Cheng's gaze, shrinking his neck, "I really didn't want to escape, I just wanted to use the emergency radio in the warehouse, but it seemed that someone broke it... It was fine when I came to get familiar with the venue three days ago!"

"Isn't this weird?" Hattori asked suspiciously. "Why do you want to find an emergency radio?"

"Because, because ~www.NovelMTL.com~ Mallet Tail glanced at Gao Cheng, and said, "I feel something is wrong..."

"Hattori, don't make it difficult for him," Gao Cheng shook his head and interrupted. "This Mr. Thief can't say anything. Let's wait for the rescue to come."

"Rescue?" Hattori let go of the mallet tail, and looked at Gao Chengdao in a daze, "What rescue?"

"The owner of the ship will not be back in a short time," Yue Shui walked into the restaurant and explained lightly, "No one knows where we are, that's how it is."

"what?!"

"Pingji——!" Just as he said, there was a sound of ship engines outside, and Ye's loud voice rang from afar.

Yue Shui looked stunned, as long as Gao Chengdang breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and smiled: "Let's go, uncle and they should be quite worried."

Hattori was confused and grabbed Gao Cheng: "Kioto, what's the matter, you guys can make it clear!"
