Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 52 Contaminated with the God of Death Physique will be very sad (4)

The other four left the living room, Gao Cheng thought it would be okay to take a little sleep, so he lay down on the sofa, but after a while he felt something was wrong.

He barely opened his eyes, his vision was blurred, and he could only vaguely see Granny Mi.

what happened? getting sleepy...

Was it drugged...why...

The drowsiness became more and more intense, and he only had to grab the Toya Lake at his waist and fell into a deep sleep.

"Miss!"

"Miss Lihua!"

Liutian and others on the first and second floors of the villa are still shouting and searching everywhere, but they still haven't found Lihua Yoshii.

"Have you found anything?"

"No!"

"Look over there!"

Hearing the shouts from upstairs and downstairs outside the living room, Granny Mi, who was sitting silently in the living room, suddenly got up and walked to Gao Cheng. Seeing Gao Cheng maturely sleeping, she turned around and brought a blanket to cover Gao Cheng.

At this time, all the lights in the villa were suddenly extinguished with the sound of tripping, and it was pitch black everywhere.

"power cut?"

"Go to the main switch and have a look!"

The three boats hurried downstairs to the main lock opposite the kitchen, and suddenly there was another sound of glass breaking.

After the switch of the main gate was pulled up, the lights were turned on again, and the scene of the scene appeared in front of everyone. The windows in front of the corridor of the main gate seemed to be broken by something.

"What's going on?" Mifune looked at Takashi Ichie and Ojima Gojo in the opposite direction in surprise.

"We don't know either," Yizhilong looked outside and said, "It seems that someone jumped outside..."

"Is it the murderer?"

Mifune gritted his teeth and looked at the dark forest outside, and hurriedly chased out from the broken window: "Damn! You can't escape!"

"Three, three ships!"

"Wait a minute, Mifune! It's too dangerous!"

The remaining three people chased after them one after another, and disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye. When Granny Mi heard the noise and walked out of the villa, there was no one there.

In the living room of the villa, Gao Cheng opened his eyes in a daze, feeling as if he was being carried by someone, and there was the sound of rushing water in his ears.

Who……

While groggy, Gao Cheng subconsciously wanted to pull out Lake Toya from his waist, but he couldn't move his body at all.

He felt himself being pushed to the edge of the sink, and vaguely saw the open faucet... water! !

"Plop!" A strong force came from the neck, and the head was directly forced into the water. Amid the gurgling sound, tap water continued to pour into the mouth and nose, and the death crisis surged under the uncomfortable feeling of suffocation.

Gao Cheng opened his eyes suddenly, and an incomparable will to survive erupted from the depths of his weak body, and he moved his weakly hanging fingers to tightly grasp Lake Toya.

Drawing the knife, which is usually extremely easy, was extremely difficult at this time, almost trembling to complete the drawing, and slashing back with all his strength.

"Ahem!" The wooden knife did not hit the murderer, but it also made the pressure behind him disappear. Gao Cheng immediately got out of the pool, coughed and slipped to the ground, breathing heavily.

He barely propped himself up on Lake Toya, and only had time to see a figure running out of the living room when his vision was blurred.

hateful……

Gao Cheng gritted his teeth and walked to the door.

He seemed to have been given sleeping pills. He didn't know how much the medicine was, but it actually made him lose all strength. If it wasn't for being pressed into the water, it might be difficult to wake up.

But now it is also very uncomfortable, the effect of the medicine is obviously far from receding, so I can only hold on as much as possible to stay awake.

"What's the matter, Detective Chenghu?" Granny Mi was startled when she saw Gao Cheng's wet and embarrassed appearance, and hurriedly took the towel and asked, "What happened?"

"It's nothing," Gao Cheng smiled lightly, took the towel and said, "Grandma Mi, where are the others?"

"The electricity suddenly stopped just now, and there was the sound of windows being broken, and then they all chased them into the forest outside.

"Grandma Mi worried, "I saw them in a panic, that's why I wanted to go and see... Detective Chenghu, are you really all right?" "

"I'm fine."

Gao Cheng wiped off the water stains on his face, squinted his eyes and looked outside the villa: "Grandma Mi, can I trouble you to call them all back? Just say that I was attacked by a murderer."

"Ah, good." Granny Mi left the villa in confusion.

In the west corridor of the kitchen, Gao Cheng leaned on the wall and came to the broken window while panting.

The person just now should be the murderer, and it is very likely that he is one of the four men. The suspicion of Mifune cannot be completely cleared, because there may not be no possibility of accomplices.

The key now is whether Miss Lihua, who has disappeared, was killed or is she herself one of the murderers...

"No matter who you are, I will definitely find you out! Absolutely!"

Gao Cheng raised his fist and propped up his body with his own strength, pinned Lake Toya back to his waist, and his eyes looking out the window became sharper.

Back in the kitchen, the water in the sink was still overflowing, and he turned off the faucet casually, and the time when the murderer held him in the water came back to Gao Cheng's mind.

It's a man, that's right. When Granny Mi went to make coffee, everyone in Liutian left the living room. Anyone could secretly put sleeping pills in the coffee, but at that time he just took a cup of coffee...

Random killings?

Then why just put sleeping pills?

Gao Cheng put his hands in his pockets and went back to the living room. After a long time, Liu Tian and the other four returned to the villa one after another.

"What? Detective Kido was attacked by a murderer?"

"What's going on here?" There was nothing unusual about the surprised expressions of Liutian and the others.

"Detective Kido, are you alright?"

"It's okay," Gao Cheng glanced at several people one by one, "The murderer put sleeping pills in a cup of coffee beforehand, and I was just unlucky enough to drink it."

"An, sleeping pills?" Everyone subconsciously looked at Granny Mi, "Aunt Mi, you..."

"But I only put sugar..." Granny Mi said anxiously.

"The culprit is not Granny Mi, but you are very suspicious. You may pretend to go into the forest to chase the murderer, but come back secretly. As for sleeping pills... you were not in the living room when Granny Mi was making coffee. Granny Mi didn't pay attention to taking sleeping pills." Gao Cheng inspected.

"Don't be kidding," Mifune said tightly, "You should know that I am not the murderer, besides Miss Lihua? Maybe she did it."

"It wasn't her who attacked me, I'm sure of that."

Gao Cheng glanced at Sanchuan, then asked the others: "Did you see anyone coming back when you chased them out?"

"Well, we all ran away at the time," Ichiji Takashi recalled, "I followed because I was worried about Mifune's accident, but I didn't see him soon..."

"What do you mean?" Mifune glared, "I haven't mentioned you yet, who knows where you went?"

"Okay, everyone, stop arguing!" Liutian stopped the two of them and looked at Gao Chengdao, "Does Detective Kido mean that the criminal is among us?"

"probably."

Gao Cheng couldn't see anything from the expressions of the few people, and asked: "I remember that you should all search the villa, right? Why did you go to the forest again? And what about the power outage?"

"We searched all over the villa, but we still couldn't find Miss Lihua," explained Ichi Takashi, "then there was a sudden power outage, and we rushed to the circuit breaker. The window was broken by someone, and then the three boats chased after her. out……"

"Did you see the murderer?"

"No."

"Can you repeat your actions during the power outage?" Gao Cheng pondered for a while, seeing that he couldn't ask anything, he directly took everyone out of the living room for a live simulation.

After a few people rushed to the location of the switch in the corridor according to the situation during the power outage, Gao Chengcai continued to ask, "Did you find any problems?"

"What could be the problem?" Several people shook their heads again, "It was impossible to pay attention to other situations at that time."

Gao Cheng frowned and didn't say any more. After looking at the time, he ordered: "It's already past four o'clock in the morning, and there will be about three hours before the car arrives. Until then, let's all stay in the living room together... ..."

"I don't need it," Mifune waved impatiently, "I'd better go to the room on the second floor to rest, the detective boy is unreliable, I still have to protect my own life, I don't want to stay with the murderer anymore …By the way, if you make any more coffee, you don’t need to prepare mine, who knows what else will be.”

"Three boats..."

"Then I'll go back to my room," Liu Tian followed suit, "Call me if the car comes to pick us up."

"Really, isn't it safer for everyone to gather together?"

After Sanchuan left, the rest of them stayed in the living room with Gao Cheng, slowly waiting for the time to pass.

Amidst the ticking of the wall clock, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, with no intention of stopping at all.

"If this continues, the car will come to pick us up tomorrow..." Wujo Xiu muttered while standing by the window, and turned to Gao Chengdao worriedly, "Detective Kido, are you a detective? Can't you hurry up?" Find the murderer?"

Gao Cheng didn't seem to hear it, but just picked up the remote control of the air conditioner on the table to watch it. It seemed that someone had set a timer to turn it on, and there was a timer setting of "12:30" on the remote control.

"Detective Kido?" Seeing that there was no response, Wujo called again in doubt.
