Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

back mountain.

Conan's group perfectly missed the rich woman, and walked along the mountain road to the rock wall.

"Wow, the scenery here is really good!" Ayumi looked around.

Mitsuhiko walked to the edge of the cliff, overlooking the entire village and the endless woods at the end of the village, "I can see the entire village!"

Dr. A Li hurriedly said, "Be careful, don't go to the edge of the cliff!"

"However, why did we come here?" Yuan Tai looked at Conan in confusion.

They came with Conan.

"It's another guy who came to this kind of place out of nowhere and needs to pay attention to safety." Conan Banyueyan walked towards the big tree on the edge of the cliff.

Walking along the way, he also felt that he was naive, knowing that Chi Feichi was joking with everyone, he was still angry like a child, and other people on the road also apologized to him, so he was too embarrassed to keep a straight face.

"Another guy?" Dr. Ali didn't understand.

"It's Brother Chi, there is rock ash on the side of his shoes instead of mud, and there are no scratches caused by shrubs and leaves on the hem of his trousers, which means that he didn't go to the forest, but to the rock wall behind the village. Just follow the direction he went back to find Come here, observe the traces along the way, it is easy to find where he went before," Conan looked at the trunk, pointing to a shallow dust print, "the trunk has traces of climbing, and the footprints should also be left by him , he should have climbed to this tree by the cliff by himself before."

\u003c('^')\u003e

Even if Chi Fei doesn't say anything later, he still has a way to know where that guy went before, hum!

"What are you doing Feichi climbing a tree?" Dr. A Li looked at the big tree.

"Maybe I came to see the golden eagles. Golden eagles like to nest among the rock walls," Conan complained in his heart. nest."

"Really!" Ayumi looked up.

Mitsuhiko's eyes lit up, "What a big nest."

"There are still a lot of golden eagle feathers here. It seems that the roots have not fallen off for a long time, but these feathers are too many, and they don't seem to fall off naturally. He didn't come to see the golden eagle, and then fought with the golden eagle. One..." Conan squatted down, maliciously guessing what Chi Feichi had done, picked up a feather on the ground, and suddenly saw a shallower footprint under the cover of the grass, "Huh?"

"What's the matter?" Dr. A Li leaned over and bent down to look at the footprint, "This footprint is not big, it doesn't look like it was left by Feichi, did Feichi meet someone from the village here?"

"It's the shoe prints of straw sandals," Hui Yuanai also moved closer, "The only people who can wear straw sandals here are the villagers, but under normal circumstances, the villagers don't wear straw sandals, and people who always wear straw shoes... ..."

"Only the priest mother-in-law!" Conan said firmly, "and the footprints are about the same size as her feet."

Mitsuhiko bent down and observed, "Could it be the footprints left by the priest's mother-in-law before?"

"No, the view here is wide, the wind is strong, and the soil is dry. If there were footprints left before, they would have been invisible for a long time." Conan squatted among the grass, looked around, and stretched out his hand to pull out a clump of weeds. "Besides, the feathers here have been stepped on to the ground. Judging from the footprints left by the priest's mother-in-law, judging from the position of the toes, they should have been stepped on when they left. In addition, the footprints of Brother Chi's stepping on the golden eagle feathers It was all left when I left..."

Yuan Tai was confused, "What do you mean?"

"That is to say, Brother Feichi came here first, climbed the tree, and the golden eagle came here later, so he didn't step on the feathers of the golden eagle in his footprints," Huiyuan Ai concluded, "After the golden eagle Maybe they fought here, maybe they attacked him, leaving far more feathers on the ground than they would fall off naturally. After that, the priest mother-in-law came over, and they didn't know what they talked about before leaving. In this way, That priest mother-in-law stepped on the golden eagle feathers back and forth."

"Brother Chi may have come here through some means. He knew that the priest mother-in-law would come here to see the golden sculpture, so he came here in advance and waited..." Conan stood up and walked down the mountain.

After much deliberation, he still didn't feel that Chi Feichi was just here to see the golden eagles, and if he wanted to see them, he didn't need to come alone without telling them.

There must be some purpose for Chi Feichi to leave them behind and come here alone!

He was more inclined that Chi Feichi was secretly investigating. As for why he didn't bring them along...

Chi Feichi is not the kind of person who likes to show off. He doesn't like to explain and reason with others, and he doesn't have the desire to compete with others in reasoning. He doesn't usually have the opportunity to reason, so he doesn't want to win him. This time the murderer is more dangerous, I want to find out first, and let them get involved after I'm sure.

After all, we don’t know who the murderer is or where he’s hiding. There are so many people in the village who might commit crimes, and they can’t be spotted or guarded against. trouble.

Well, that should be it.

Dr. Ali and others followed Conan.

Yuan Tai asked, "Why did brother Chi meet that fierce priest mother-in-law?"

"It should be to find clues to the murderer," Conan said, "When we went to investigate at the tree of sacrifices in the morning, I told you that Brother Chi speculated that the murderer's modus operandi was to use the pressure of the cave. The mother-in-law stopped her, but when we went back to the villa later, brother Chi reminded us that the tree of the gods was in a straight line with the tree of sacrifice. We went to verify and found the mechanism under the tree of the gods, so we can confirm what brother Chi speculated The method of committing the crime is correct, and he should be based on the method. He wanted to find someone who could get the switch controller of the reservoir gate, or who could install that kind of thing. Also, who bought a large amount of cement into the village in the past month, saying Maybe I would also like to ask about the situation of the girl who was sacrificed more than 20 years ago, and the only people who know the big and small things in the village are the priest mother-in-law who presides over the village affairs and the local police officer, but the local police officer is only in his twenties , he probably didn’t know what happened more than 20 years ago, he probably chose to ask the priest’s mother-in-law..."

"Ah, does elder brother Chi already know who the murderer is?" Guang Yan hurriedly asked.

Conan Shen suddenly burst out laughing.

"Probably not." Hui Yuanai guessed why Conan smiled, and glanced at Conan, "That priest mother-in-law is not very talkative, there are unnaturally shed feathers from the golden eagle at the scene, not when Brother Chi returned, no Willing to chat with us more, pointing out that someone is a black sheep, it seems that he is not in a good mood, there should be no gain, and if he knows who the murderer is, there is no reason to hide it for the murderer, and he will tell everyone, discuss How to get in touch with Police Officer Megure from the outside world, at least the reasoning will let Edogawa come."

"Hey, let me tell you..." Conan was speechless.

"Why did Conan come for reasoning?" Mitsuhiko asked.

"Because Edogawa is a reasoning tool." Haibara Ai said seriously.

Conan: "..."

I see, Huiyuan couldn't figure out that Chi Feichi didn't tell them anything, so he was a little upset, right?

But Huiyuan can just go and beat Chi Feichi, so why take his anger out on him...

Forget it, when he thought that Chi Feichi might be talking about him because his investigation was not going well and he was in a bad mood, he thought it was funny, that guy could still play childish temper, very cute.

Since he is in a good mood, let Huiyuan go.

These two childish ghosts who usually look cold and arrogant!

"Then are we going to find the priest's mother-in-law?" Ayumi frowned, "What if she refuses to tell us the clues?"

"No, let's go to the Tushi police officer, maybe brother Chi has already passed away," Conan said firmly, "First find out who the murderer is, and whether the murderer's motive is related to what happened more than 20 years ago , and what happened back then, let the murderer tell us himself!"

...

In Hecang's villa.

Fei Yingli, He Cangliang Er, Tiantang Qinghua and others still stayed together, each with a mockingbird cocktail.

Fei Yingli wanted to go out to investigate, but the Hecang family had to be left alone, and Chi Feichi went downstairs to mix the wine and then went back to her room. As a teacher's wife, she had to help take care of Tiantang Qinghua's current situation. An old classmate who is helpless and her husband's only apprentice.

In the room on the second floor, Chi Feichi sat at the table drinking. He didn't go to Tushi Yicheng as Conan guessed, and he didn't have the 'cuteness' Conan guessed at all.

Koizumi Hongzi had already secretly concealed it from the others, and went to Chi Feichi's room, dipped her finger in ice water, and drew a picture on the table, "According to your idea, you intend to make this village disappear from the public's sight and block the mountain road. The entrance is very simple. When I came here on a broom, I saw the mountain road in the air. Just build a road at this corner, get through to the back of the bend, and set up a magic circle at this intersection. People passing by will lead to the village. This intersection is regarded as a cliff, and what they see is also a cliff, so they will only pass by the newly built road."

That is to directly build a substitute road, and then block the original intersection.

Chi Feichi also dipped his fingers in icy water and drew a horizontal line beside the original intersection, "Dig a deep ditch here and build a suspension bridge. We know the location of the suspension bridge and it won't fall down, but if someone doesn't If you know the location of the suspension bridge and rush into the intersection leading to the village, there is a high probability that you will fall into a deep ditch or a real cliff, after all, the original road is next to the cliff.”

Koizumi Hongzi was speechless, "Should we just destroy the original road and connect it with a suspension bridge?"

"It's okay if you think it's convenient." Chi Feichi took a sip of his wine calmly, "If there are people who want to commit suicide by jumping off the cliff, I'll let them do that too. I don't want them to break into the village by mistake , I saw something I shouldn’t have seen, and I don’t want the police to find the body of the person who should have fallen off the cliff.”

Hongzi Koizumi murmured in her heart, 'Evil child of nature', thought for a while, and continued, "But before breaking the circuit, there is a bigger problem to consider. With my magic power, shielding a place as big as our laboratory It is already the limit, and I will continue to repair the magic circle and replace the magic materials in the future. If the area from the intersection to the three mountains disappears from the sight of the world, my magic power is not enough to do it, and the magic materials in my hand will not be enough. Not enough, even if Mr. Shinnosuke helps to collect all the magic materials that still exist in the world, it may not be enough for us to shield such a large area of ​​land, and some lost magic materials will have to be replaced after a year."
