Conan: Another Famous Detective

After a while, everyone gathered in the living room again.

Fortunately, there were still many candles in the house, so everyone would not fall into darkness.

Yui is treating the wound on Sumika's back.

"Phew! Although the wound is quite long and narrow, it is not too deep," Yui said softly.

Zhumei and several other Sumika's classmates were relieved when they heard this.

"Damn it! It's the woman in red again! It was Bo Gu before, but now even Sumika is almost..." Ren Tian gritted his teeth, with an angry look on his face.

"Police officer!" A police officer came over to report: "The situation is not good, the substation was struck by lightning, and the entire area is now without power!"

Yuyi's face darkened: "I understand, you guys stay around and try not to act alone."

"Yes!" the police officer promised and left.

"It seems we have to wait a while before we can get some!" Sera muttered.

"There's nothing we can do about it. Who wants God to deny us face?" Meng Yu said with a helpless smile.

"Sumi, are you really sure it was the woman in red who attacked you?" Zhumi asked.

Chengxiang nodded repeatedly: "Of course! The wounds on my back are proof!"

Ren Tian looked at Yui with some hesitation: "But didn't the police officer say that the woman in red was dead?"

"Could it be that the umbilical cord used to compare his DNA was actually someone else's?" Zhumei couldn't help but guess.

While helping Sumika apply the medicine, Yui replied: "This is impossible, because the origin of the umbilical cord is that the mother of the woman in red has been resisting the important evidence handed over to the police because she could not accept the death of her daughter. This This has been confirmed by their relatives.”

When she said this, she also frowned slightly: "It's just that there are still some strange things now..."

"What's weird?" Conan asked immediately.

"Well!" Yui explained: "It means breaking and entering. Since more than ten years ago, every time during this period, there will be cases of people breaking into nearby rental villas. However, it does not happen like this villa. It was a deliberate prank like breaking the window and throwing something in.”

"Instead, he broke the door lock, ran in and lived there for a while. In addition, there are testimonies from time to time claiming to have seen scary figures in the forest, so the Nagano Prefectural Police cannot conclude that the skeletal remains found in the swamp are The woman in red.”

"Speaking of which... I also saw a long-haired woman before the power outage!" Yuanzi said suddenly.

Sera was shocked and asked quickly: "When did you see it?"

"About a few minutes before the power outage, right? It was right at that window!" She pointed to the window of the living room and said: "At that time, I saw a long-haired woman leaning against the tree, tilting her head and staring at this side!"

boom!

There was a thunderous explosion, and the candles in the living room suddenly went out, and the living room suddenly became dark.

"Ah!!!" Xiaolan and Yuanzi screamed at the same time. Although Mengyu was still calm, she subconsciously hugged Yu Gongming's arm.

"One... there must be nothing wrong! She is the woman who attacked me!" Cheng Xiang stared at her eyes and said in an extremely frightened tone.

"Does...does it really exist? The legendary resentful spirit of the woman in red!?" Ren Tian, ​​a tall and thick man, was also a little panicked.

"I...I think we should run away quickly! Otherwise, we will be killed one by one by the women in red like Bo Gu!" Zhumei's emotions were almost on the verge of collapse.

Chi!

After a scratching sound, a flash of fire lit up in the originally dark living room.

"In this world... there are no monsters at all!" Seriang said in a sonorous tone, holding a match in his hand and relighting the extinguished candle on the table.

The living room became bright again.

Yu Gongming also said: "Everyone still has to believe in science. There have never been so-called ghosts in this world, only people who pretend to be gods and ghosts."

"Since another attack has occurred, it seems that we have to continue the investigation. For safety reasons, everyone will stay in the living room. Sera, Conan, and I will assist Officer Uehara in the investigation. Is that okay?"

"Well! I will call a car to pick us up later. If nothing happens, we can leave here soon, so don't worry, you will be fine if we stay together in the living room." Yui also reassured.

Under the light of candles and the comforting words of Hanomiya Akira and others, Zhumei Xiaoran and others' emotions finally softened a bit, and they did not express any objection to the words of Hanomiya Akira and Yui.

Then, Yui, Akira Hanomiya and other detectives left the living room.

In the corridor, Conan suddenly asked: "Speaking of which, did Officer Uehara contact Officer Yamato just now? Officer Yamato is so concerned about this case, why didn't he come?"

"Because he and Officer Zhufu want to confirm one more thing before announcing the death of the woman in red tomorrow." Yui explained: "It seems that the two of them have something to do with that case. I don't know more specifically. .”

Conan's eyes flashed and he did not continue to ask.

Afterwards, everyone began to search various rooms.

About half an hour later.

Several people returned to the corridor on the first floor.

"Have you found anything?" Yui asked.

"No, I didn't find long wigs, kitchen knives or red clothes anywhere." Conan shook his head slightly.

Akiya Hanomiya said: "Moreover, there are no traces of water or mud around the windows of the room. The woman in red must not be pretending to be Zhumi on the first floor."

"No similar traces were found in Ren Tian's room on the second floor." Sera said calmly: "So, the suspicion of attacking Ren Tian and Zhumi this time is very small."

Yui frowned, with a worried look on her face: "I used to think that it must have been done by one of Tamumi Imada and the others, but now it seems that Sumika may have directed and acted on her own to avoid suspicion."

"Probably not." Conan denied: "The wound on Miss Sumika's back was cut horizontally with a knife. It was very clean and crisp. It is impossible for me to cause that kind of wound under normal circumstances."

Akira Yunomiya also nodded in approval: "Indeed, and when we searched Chengxiang's room just now, we didn't find any traces of a mechanism that could cause that kind of wound."

"Could it be that..." Yu Yi couldn't help but look out the window: "The murderer is really not in the villa. Is there really something lurking in the forest outside?"

She turned to look at Seriang: "By the way, you said before that you were the detective entrusted by them to investigate the strange things in the villa, right?"

Sera nodded: "Yes! They originally entrusted my brother with the task, but my brother couldn't come because of some things, so they asked me, a high school detective, to do it for him."

"Those photos of weird things are on your body now, right? Can you show them to me?" Yui asked.

"Yeah! No problem!" Seriang did not refuse.

After a while, everyone came to a room and placed the photos on the desk.

Yui stared at these photos: "So that's it, red apples...red roses...it's really weird...huh? What is this photo?" Yui pointed to one of the photos with a puzzled look on his face.
