Conan's winery play house

Around four or five in the morning, everyone gathered on the edge of the cliff.

Of course everyone from Silver Bullet is here too.

"...You mean, that old man drove himself off the cliff and committed suicide?" Morohoshi Hideki stood on the edge of the cliff, looked down, and asked without looking back.

As witnessed by Todai couple Heiji Hattori and Conan Edogawa, there was no other person in the car except Hiroyuki Kanaya.

"The boss must have committed suicide because he didn't want to give you the first version of the research on the scarlet character." Mouri Kogoro said while yawning.

"This book will no longer be his after he dies." Jiang Shouhang couldn't keep his smiling expression and spoke reluctantly.

Mouri Kogoro's answer is really outrageous.

"I think it's murder." Toba Kento said with determination.

"You only need to kill the boss in advance and then push the manual transmission forward to create the illusion that the boss committed suicide by driving the car." Toba Kento said confidently.

The method he mentioned is indeed feasible.

Before others could seriously think about it, Hattori Heiji opened his mouth and raised the flaw.

"If that's the case, how do you accelerate the car halfway? And..."

"We seemed to hear the sound of the wind at that time, and it was definitely not the sound of the engine." Hattori Heiji raised doubts with others while thinking about it himself.

Yeah, what on earth is going on?

"Rather than discussing these, it would be easier to directly check the surveillance cameras, right? Isn't it true that there are surveillance cameras and bugs everywhere in the hotel? If you find them, you will know the clues." Hideki Morohoshi interrupted a group of people's brainstorming.

"The car and the body fell into the sea. We need to notify the police immediately to salvage the body. There may be clues left on the car and the body, assuming there is still a body." He looked calm, mature and reliable, and naturally gave orders to others.

.

"Actually...the surveillance is all fake, and there are no bugs. They are all lies to everyone..." Hitomi Iwai hesitated to speak, and finally spoke hesitantly.

"Fake?" Hideki Morohoshi raised his eyebrows.

The hotel doesn't even have real surveillance. Should I say it's frugal, stingy, or bold?

Although monitoring is indeed not widespread now.

But... in this way, the way to find clues through surveillance is completely blocked.

"Then let's call the police first. Where is the mobile phone we handed over?" Jiang Shouhuan looked at Hitomi Iwai and asked.

"It must be in the boss's room, I'll take you there..." Hitomi Iwai thought for a while and ran in one direction with determination.

Everyone followed her and ran all the way to Hiroyuki Kanaya's room.

However, what came into view was a pile of smashed and broken mobile phones.

Even the landline phone lines have been cut off.

Now it was certain that it was indeed murder.

Hideki Morohoshi looked at his red flip phone that was broken into two pieces with a very ugly expression.

The other people's faces were not good, and the mobile phones of Kikukawa Seiichiro and others were also destroyed.

Aito looked at the mobile phone he handed in, but there was still no angry expression on his face.

He always wore a faint smile and seemed out of place in such an environment.

He soon realized that he was a little out of place, so he quickly imitated the expressions of others around him and showed an angry look.

He handed over a spare cell phone, a flip phone like the others, and did not hand over a cell phone for daily use.

"I'm afraid the other cars have also been destroyed. Does that guy want to trap us here and continue his killing game?" Hideki Morohoshi sneered.

Even though I knew I was caught up in someone's killing game, I wasn't afraid at all.

"All the cars in the garage were indeed destroyed," Hattori Heiji walked over and said.

He immediately went to check the car in the garage, only to find that the car's fuel tank was leaking, the battery was dead, and it couldn't be driven at all.

"Ha." Morohoshi Hideki crossed his arms with an expression like "Look, I just said that."

"So, let's sit down and talk about the clues. Murder requires a motive, right? Why did the murderer kill Hiroyuki Kanaya? This is the key." He leaned against the wall and spoke thoughtfully.

"And the murderer plans to continue killing people..." He continued with raised eyebrows.

"The next person the murderer wants to kill should be someone related to Hiroyuki Kanaya." Jiang Shouhuang and Takizawa Susumu also said in unison with expressions of sudden realization.

If you just want to kill Hiroyuki Kanaya, then it can be over after the other party dies. There is no need to think of ways to trap everyone else here.

So there must be someone the murderer wants to kill.

The murderer's purpose was very clear, to kill Hiroyuki Kanaya first.

If it's for prizes, you shouldn't kill the presenter first, but your opponent first.

If it was a random killing...

This group of elementary school students seemed to be easier to attack, so they shouldn't have gone directly towards Hiroyuki Kanaya from the beginning.

"Besides the hotel attendant, is there anyone else who is friends with Hiroyuki Kanaya? Or is there any other connection?" Hideki Morohoshi asked impolitely.

"No, this is my first time participating in this event..." Maria Toda quickly waved her hands and shook her head.

"Me too..." Nanako Shimizu said gloomily.

"I'm not familiar with him..." Kawazu Ikuo laughed twice and said awkwardly.

"I just helped him once when he wanted to self-publish a novel, and nothing else..." Fujisawa Toshiaki said as if talking to himself.

"Self-published? What did he publish?" Kikukawa Seiichiro asked curiously.

""The Ridicule of Irene Adler" was published last year." Toshiaki Fujisawa answered seriously.

"Never heard of it..." Jiang Shouhuang and Taki Zejin also looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Irene Adler's ridicule..." Hideki Morohoshi frowned and thought.

But I never thought it had anything to do with the murder case.

So he shook his head.

"Forget it, if nothing else happens, you two will probably be the murderer's next target..." Hideki Morohoshi said as if he was watching.

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Toba Kento.

"This is just your guess. Without seeing the body, we can't be sure that the person who died was Hiroyuki Kanaya, right? What if the person in the car was a dummy? What if the murderer was Hiroyuki Kanaya himself who had faked his death and escaped?" Toba

Kento put forward one hypothesis after another, trying to prove that everything Morohoshi Hideki said was nonsense.

"What you said is just speculation. You are so eager to throw all doubts on a person who is suspected to be dead. Are you the murderer?" Takizawa Shinya asked aggressively, but with a seemingly polite smile on his face.

Turning words into weapons is what politicians are best at.

"If you're not, don't worry yet." Jiang Shouhuang also said with a smile.

"The murderer of Hiroyuki Kanaya was indeed him." Aito looked at Kento Toba, holding Daifuku in one hand and pointing at him with the other.

"What did you say?!" Kento Toba reacted first, his face full of disbelief.

It was as if he had been severely slandered.
