Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 1173 Secret Treasure Island Murder Case 1

"Don't worry," Mei Zuobi said with a smile, "I'll let Dad arrange the nearest wooden house for you."

"Then please!"

Gao Cheng heaved a sigh of relief, temporarily put down his luggage and went to check nearby.

This island used to be called Secret Treasure Island, so it sounds familiar.

But having said that, if a treasure is found on this closed island, will it really be possible to get it smoothly?

He has seen many murders caused by treasures.

"Wow!"

Turning around, Gao Cheng walked around the villa following the sound of the waves, and found that there was a cliff behind the island owner's villa, and there was a torii gate among the rocks underneath, which seemed to be black in color.

Very strange, the torii is usually a building at the entrance of a Japanese shrine, which symbolizes the entrance of the gods, but this place is normal except for the white torii on the mountain. Whether it is the green torii or the one below, they are all built under the cliff.

And it's much bigger than normal torii...

What's even more wrong is this treasure hunt.

From the moment he arrived on this island, he was isolated from the world for the next week. If something happened, it would be the best place to kill people.

Even people who don't have this idea will be inspired to have evil thoughts, right?

What is the idea of ​​the island owner who initiated this treasure hunt...

"Ah Cheng," Xiao Ai shouted from behind, "When are you going to transfer? Everyone has gathered at the villa, and we have already found the screen with the treasure code written on it."

"I'll be right back."

Gao Cheng was standing at the entrance of the mountain road leading to the coast below. There was a sign saying "No Entry" erected at the entrance, which looked very old.

"Boom boom boom!"

Suddenly, there was a rush of bells from the island owner's villa, followed by a series of exclamations from the crowd.

"Master...it's Master!"

In the living room of the villa, the old butler Iwata looked in horror at the body pieces falling out of the old wall clock.

The body of the killed Mizusa Island Master was torn apart, exuding a strong stench, which brought an indescribable sense of horror to everyone. As the beginning of a nightmare, everyone's eyes were stained with blood.

When Gao Cheng followed Xiao Ai back to the villa in a hurry, the island owner's daughter, Misakubi, had already passed out, and the others left the living room. Only the man with glasses named Huomura Kohei was examining the corpse.

"Judging from the degree of decay, the time of death is at least a week." The man with glasses judged in a deep voice.

"Are you a doctor?" Xiaolan asked with a trembling voice while hugging Conan.

It was terrible. This kind of tragedy reminded her of the case of the bandage monster in the villa, but that time it was not so direct.

It feels better to hold Conan deeply in my arms...

"I'm a plastic surgeon in Tokyo," the man in glasses said calmly, covering the corpse with a tablecloth. "I was employed as a coroner before, so I have some experience."

Gao Cheng glanced at the man with glasses.

Judging from the rotten situation, the man with glasses made no mistake in his judgment. It was just a week ago, which was almost after the exam.

If the island owner himself died, who sent them the invitation letter?

Or maybe the island owner was killed after sending the letter...

Gao Cheng glanced across the scene in the living room.

Dining table, clock... and an altar next to the clock, with a red statue of a weirdo on it, and 8 Japanese dolls in front of the statue.

There was also a doll that fell apart like a corpse on the ground.

What case is this time?

Gao Cheng intuitively felt a strong malice, and couldn't help but look back at the group of people who were still in shock.

The murderer is undoubtedly among these people...

The smell of the corpse was too bad. With the joint efforts of everyone, the corpse was wrapped and transferred to the unused utility room in the villa before Meizuobi woke up. All the windows were opened for ventilation.

"There is no way to notify the police now, and it will take a week before the ship arrives..."

A group of people gathered outside the villa,

The expressions are different, and there is a hint of vigilance towards the people around him.

At least until it is determined that the murderer is an outsider, no one will be completely assured of the people around him.

"Then do you want to wait here for a week?"

"Miss Xiaobi, is she awake? Now that the island owner is dead, the rest depends on her."

"Not yet, it's of course, after all, after being hit like that... Everyone, don't think about treasure hunting at this time!"

...

In the villa room, Meizuobi was being taken care of by Xiaolan and Yuanzi. Although the teenage girl was awake, she became silent because of her father's death.

"Dad, he has neither relatives nor brothers, he is an unaccompanied person..."

Looking at the pasture outside, Misakubi said slowly.

"He has been very fond of the legend of the treasure on this island since a long time ago, as if he was possessed, and it has become even worse since his mother passed away...

Just look at this island. In order to be self-sufficient, he raises chickens, grows vegetables, and even has pastures on the island, all in order to live an isolated life and keep everyone thousands of miles away. , even my daughter is no exception, after all this, she finally wrote to ask me to come back..."

"Miss Xiaobi..."

Xiaolan's sympathy overflowed.

"Senior Kido is here, and the murderer who killed the island owner will definitely be found!"

"Thank you," Mei Zuobi wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, stood up with a smile on her face, and said, "Let's go out first, everyone still needs me now."

"Do you want to continue the treasure hunt?" Xiaolan couldn't bear it.

"Well, this is the only request my father made during his lifetime. At least I will finish this."

After a while, everyone gathered in the living room of the villa again, and there was nothing unusual on the surface, as if they had never seen the death of the island owner.

"I've kept everyone waiting," Misakubi said, holding a wooden box, "Now I'll give you the keys to the wooden house, first of all, Mr. Kido..."

Mei Zuobi looked at Gao Cheng, Yuanzi and Xiao Ai who were standing together.

"Each invitee has only one log cabin, but it's just a double bed..."

"no problem. "

Gao Cheng stepped forward to take the key to the wooden house, but was suddenly pulled back by Yuanzi from behind.

"The problem is serious," Yuanzi snatched the key, "I live in one room with Xiao Ai and Xiao Lan, and Ah Cheng and Conan live in one room."

Conan's face collapsed.

"Okay then," Misakubi took out two more keys and said, "Miss Sonoko, your wooden house is opposite the pasture and near the sea. Mr. Kido and Conan and Mr. Yadi Hisayoshi will go to the green torii gate. two cabins."

"I don't care." The curly-haired uncle named Yadi took the key and said.

There are a total of 9 wooden houses on the island. Except for the one on the ranch, the others are two wooden houses together.

"Next is Mr. Chris Einstein, Mr. Kakimoto Asahito, and Mr. Kaheimura Kohei," Misakubi said after handing out the keys one after another, "Please go to the corresponding wooden house according to the order of numbers on the keys..."

"Hey, wait a minute," the bald uncle interrupted, "Why don't you have me?! Do you want me to sleep in the wild alone?"

"Eh?" Misakubi looked at the empty key box unexpectedly, and hurriedly said to the butler, "Mr. Iwata, please prepare another cabin."

"But miss," Iwata said in disbelief, "the only thing left is the wooden house for you and me, miss."

"how come?"

"Actually, I was very concerned about it before. There were a total of 7 people holding the invitation letter, but the chairs and tableware prepared by the master in advance were only for 6 people, and the letter the master sent me also stated that there were a total of 6 guests... ..."

Everyone changed their faces after hearing the words.

Someone sneaked into the island with a fake invitation letter...
