“Ex-master? Who was that just now? Dr. Agasa asked.

“Oh, just now is the second husband of the wife, Master Man, because Master Zhenzhao died of illness six years ago.” The gardener explained and lowered his head and said, “Our wife was also burned to death in a fire in the past four years. ”

“What fire?”

“Look there, the charred stone tower, that place is the former wife’s bedroom. That year, in order to celebrate the eldest lady’s birthday, the wife specially rushed back from outside. She arrived in the middle of the night, but before dawn the next day, the whole tower was surrounded by fire, and the wife did not have time to escape. Not only the wife, but also some good friends brought back by the wife, but also more than a dozen housekeepers and servants who had served the old lady for many years, were swallowed up in the fire like this. The gardener said, pointing to the stone tower not far away.

“The only ones who survived were the new servants like us, and the eldest lady who was in the other dormitory because of a cold, and then came the old man who arrived earlier than the wife, ah, and over there, the son of the wife and the old man Zhenzhao, the noble young master.” The gardener pointed to a young man not far away who was carefully observing the sculpture of chess pieces in the courtyard.

“Although he returned here twenty-three days before the fire, I heard that he was sent abroad to study since he was a child, and it was the first time I saw him when he was locked.”

“The first time I met Mr. Man was at that time, since our wife remarried abroad, he and Mr. Man have been living in that country, and I don’t know why, the two of them have been staying here since that fire and living in this castle.”

“We outsiders look at it as if we are caught in something.”

The gardener began to talk about what he knew.

“I said, can you be a gardener and tell a guest you just met?” Ye looked at this gardener helplessly, “You dare to talk about the private affairs of the master’s family everywhere, let’s get bored here.” ”

“Then again, it must have been difficult when they first came to the castle, and no one here knew them.” The Doctor thought for a moment and said.

“No, the photo of the wife when she remarried, the wife has already sent it back here.” So we all know what Old Master Man looks like. As for the noble young master,” the gardener said, pointing to a huge portrait facing the gate, “you see, he looks exactly like the dead old man. ”

“In this way, no matter who can be sure that they are father and son.” Dr. Agasa looked at the painting and agreed.

Then he looked left and right, “Who is the difference between these two portraits?” ”

“They are Master Zhenzhao and Mrs. Zhenzhao!” The gardener continued, “Mr. Zhenzhao was recruited, and he has great respect for the great lord, who is also a historian, and our wife is often jealous of this, and often avenge Mr. Zhenzhao.” ”

She used to say that Dad was just a nerd with a crooked mouth. Right? “Suddenly, an old lady in a wheelchair came silently.

“Look, it’s been caught by the master.” Night thought as he looked at the somewhat flustered gardener.

“In fact, the child’s father has often heard about this, but he is not angry at all when he hears about it, but very happy.” The eldest lady continued.

“I’m really sorry, I shouldn’t have reminded the eldest lady of these pasts.” The gardener quickly took off his hat and leaked a large bald head and apologized.

“You don’t have to worry, I’m already used to it” The eldest lady looked at the portrait of the eldest old man and continued to sigh: “I have long been accustomed to the days without him here, just like the pattern of banknotes and the size of the passport change over time, I was not very used to it at first, but it was not strange after a long time.” Time is a terrible thing, whether it is joy, anger or sorrow, it will pass with time. ”

“Oh yes,” the eldest lady seemed to react, looking at Dr. Agasa and asking suspiciously, “Who are these people?”

“Ah, they are friends of the master, I heard that he is still a scientist.” The gardener pointed to Dr. Agasa and explained to the eldest lady according to the previous master’s instructions.

“Scientists?” The eldest lady was stunned.

Although she still looked demented, Ye noticed a flash of essence in her eyes.

“That’s wonderful, then I’ll ask you to help us solve the mystery of him buried in this ancient castle.” The eldest lady said with a white light on her glasses.

“Mystery?” Hearing the word Conan instantly became energetic.

“It is said that the eldest lord once said this when he was dying: As long as he can solve the mystery in the castle, I will give him his most precious treasure.” The gardener explained.

“By the way, my daughter hasn’t come back yet?” Suddenly, the eldest lady glanced around and said, “Didn’t she say she would come back today to celebrate my birthday?”

“Big lady.” What the gardener wants to say.

“When she came back, remember to call her to my room. I’ll be able to see my daughter soon. “Saying that, I pushed the wheelchair away, not to mention the speed is quite fast.

“She’s been like this since the fire.” The gardener explained.

“I think she must have been hit hard.” Dr. Agasa also said with some sympathy.

“Uncle, is there any place to see those chess pieces in the yard?” Conan was still concerned about the puzzles they were talking about.

“Chess in the yard?” The gardener thought about it and led everyone to a room on the second floor.

“It’s so good, these chess pieces are so beautiful!” From the window of her room, Ayumi looked down at the chess and chess boards in the courtyard.

Yuan Tai also wanted to take a look, but because the window was too small, there were not so many people.

At this time, Shihiko opened the window next to him and said that he could see it here, so Genta ran to another room.

And Conan also recorded the position of the black and white chess pieces on the gas chessboard in his notebook at this time, and sat directly on the ground and began to think.

At night, taking advantage of the fact that the window was not crowded, I ran to the window with a little mourning to take a look.

Ye looked at it and recalled the plot, and laughed.

“How? Found the mystery? Xiao Wei looked at the night and asked.

“Well, what do you look like with that black chess piece?” Night prompted.

“Like an arrow.”

“That’s right, this means that if you rotate something in this castle in the direction of the arrow, you will get the treasure.” Night explained with a smile.

“Oh.” As a result, Xiao Mo’s reaction was unexpected by the night.

“Aren’t you curious about what?” Ye asked curiously.

“What if you know?”

“Didn’t that gardener say just now, the person who solves the puzzle can get the treasure in this ancient castle.” Night said. _
