Conan: Another Famous Detective

The middle-aged man's voice paused, and then said: "Since everyone has finished eating, let's get back to business."

"I think you all must be curious as to why I used this mansion that I spent a lot of money to acquire as the stage for the game?"

"Please look carefully at every piece of tableware on your table."

After hearing this, everyone picked up the tableware at hand and observed.

Xiaolan turned over the tableware and saw a circular coat of arms on one end of a fork: "The biggest bird is engraved on the tableware. The whole pattern makes people feel a little uncomfortable."

"This should be a crow, right?" Mouri Kogoro guessed.

"If you put it that way, could this be..." Qian Jianjiandai hesitated to speak.

"You should understand now, right?" A man's voice came from the main seat: "This is the family crest of Karasuma Renye, the rich man who died in mysterious circumstances half a century ago."

"Karasuma Renye..."

Everyone had different expressions and seemed to be chewing on the name.

The man continued: "Not only these tableware, but every door, window, floor, stair railing, chess and even playing card pattern in this villa were all specially ordered by that person."

"In other words, this is the villa built by Renya Karasuma."

The male voice paused here, as if to give everyone time to digest the information, and then continued: "But this has become history."

"About forty years ago, a tragic case occurred here, which caused a bloody storm."

"I think all the famous detectives present should have noticed after entering the annex that there was a large amount of blood stains in different forms everywhere in the annex."

"And these blood stains were left on a night forty years ago in this still breathtakingly beautiful mansion."

"Celebrities from all political and economic circles once held a secret meeting here. On the surface, it was a memorial service for Renya Karasuma who passed away at the age of 99."

"But in fact, this is an auction for the artworks collected by Renya Karasuma during his lifetime."

"There were over three hundred items to be auctioned, so the auction was expected to last three days and three nights."

"However, on that stormy night the next day, the villa welcomed two men who were soaked by the rain."

"The two men said with lips that were already trembling from the cold that they were lost because of the storm and hoped to stay here before the storm ended."

"The auction organizer initially refused their request, however, one of the men took a packet of something from his pocket and handed it to the organizer."

"There was something like cigarettes in the bag. After smoking it, the organizer suddenly changed his mind and invited them into the annex."

"Subsequently, other people in the annex were also bewitched by them. Soon, the entire annex was filled with a thick smell of smoke."

Mouri Kogoro's expression changed: "Wait! Could it be that that cigarette is..."

"Marijuana, or other stimulating and addictive hallucinogens." Hanemiya Akira said calmly.

The man didn't seem to care about other people's exchanges and kept to himself: "Initially, other guests at the auction had some disputes over the arrival of the two men, but this situation soon changed."

"At a certain moment, someone suddenly showed an expression as if he had seen a ghost, and ran out holding the artwork he had won through bidding;"

"Some people seemed to be begging for someone's forgiveness, and their tears kept flowing down and they couldn't stop them;"

"There was also a man who stabbed his wrist with a ballpoint pen with excitement on his face!"

"In the end, some people started to snatch these works of art, and some even picked up the famous swords that were auctioned and started to kill each other!"

“The entire venue fell into chaos, and the originally orderly auction turned into a veritable purgatory on earth!”

"After a nightmarish night, eight people fell dead at the auction venue, as well as a dozen unconscious guests."

"And those two men took all the artwork and disappeared without a trace."

When the man said this, he stopped talking.

Everyone at the table was also silent for a while.

For a moment, Mouri Kogoro said with some confusion: "It's strange, why haven't you heard of any news reports on such a big case?"

"Maybe it's because of those guests?" Zhu Shan said solemnly.

"Is it because these guests were all celebrities in the political and economic circles at that time?" Yu Gongming asked with a smile. .

"That does make sense. Those of them may not be willing to see the matter spread." Qian Jianjiangdai said quietly.

Detective Baima nodded lightly: "Indeed, rather than spending so much time investigating the matter to get to the bottom of it, it would be better to suppress the matter so that they might be able to maintain their current social status."

A contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of Motegi Harushi's lips: "Perhaps the reactions of those celebrities in the political and economic circles are also part of the plan of those two men?"

Ikumi Gunda held her cheek with her right hand and chuckled: "Such a story can really increase our appetite!"

Just at this moment, the maid opened the door and walked in, holding a large pot of black tea in her hand.

The maid came to the dining table and started pouring black tea for everyone, and the man's voice sounded again:

"So, do you understand? The reason why I designed the stage here is to let you re-enact the tragedy of forty years ago!"

"I want to watch you detectives fight to the death for treasure!"

"However, searching for treasure in such a large villa is like looking for a needle in a haystack, so I will reluctantly give you some tips."

When everyone heard this, their expressions became serious.

The male voice said calmly:

"The two travelers were walking in a hurry, looking up at the sky at night, and suddenly the devil descended on the castle. The king took the treasure and fled. Faye Wong shed tears on the Holy Grail and prayed for mercy. The soldier was so angry that he killed himself with his sword, and the color of the earth changed."

Xiaolan frowned: "This poem..."

The man said in a joking tone: "Don't you think that using this poem to describe the story that is about to happen in this annex is very appropriate?"

Yu Gongming raised his eyebrows: "Hey! Could it be that he didn't hear what we said at all? Did I just say that the police would come to pick us up?"

Everyone was stunned, and Gunda Ikumi narrowed his eyes slightly: "What you said is indeed a bit strange. Let's not talk about whether we have the willingness to cooperate with his game. According to what this guy Hanomiya said, the police will arrive tomorrow night at the latest. We can get there, and we will exercise some restraint just for this reason, right?”

"Why is he so sure that we will act according to his script?"

"Of course, none of you can even think of quitting this game, because...then you have been deceived by the magic I performed." A male voice suddenly intervened in the conversation.

After hearing this, several detectives suddenly looked at the main seat.
