The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

"Ah? Is it true?"

"It's actually true!"

"It's me!"

A large number of guests dressed in country clothes showed extremely surprised expressions, and the exaggeration even made people feel a little unreal.

Passed, passed.

At this point, Qin Zhibo had no choice but to pretend not to know that these people were extras hired by Domoto Eizo, and stood up to wave to everyone and accept photos from reporters.

After speaking, everyone moved to the cable car platform behind the hotel.

Eizo Domoto cut the ribbon himself, everyone applauded, and the host also began to introduce.

"Now please invite all the guests to try taking the Tianbu Mountain Cable Car. After the first bus reaches the top of the mountain, everyone will welcome the second bus to arrive at this platform. Everyone has a chance."

The candidates for the first bus were determined in advance, including Domoto Eizo, four people directly under Domoto, Qin Zhibo, Conan, Xiaolan, and the yellow-haired reporter Tetsuya Aoyagi brought by Domoto Saina.

Finally, there were the two Toyo Post reporters who followed the report and Secretary Yoshino, a total of 11 people.

After a few people got on the bus, they stood and sat. The atmosphere in the car was not lively, but rather subtle.

As the departure tone sounded, the cable car started slowly, and the steel cables creaked, causing the height of the cable car to gradually rise.

Qin Zhibo glanced at the people in the car, and he still couldn't guess who was planning to harm Domoto Eizo.

However, according to normal logical thinking, doing something in such a small compartment should be very detrimental to the murderer himself.

But most of the murderers in this world have abnormal brain circuits, and they always like to commit crimes in limited spaces.

In this case, the murderer is either A or B, or C, and the suspicion is only on the three surviving people, and there is no way to get rid of it.

No matter how sophisticated the trick is, it cannot achieve the purpose of getting rid of the crime, and in the end the flaw is slowly discovered.

But judging from the rubber resin dummy in the hand of the goddess, it seems that the location where the murderer struck this time was an observation deck?

Just when Qin Zhibo was thinking about the murderer's plan, the elder Domoto in the seat spoke.

"How's it going? Mr. Machida, can you please put in a kind word for our company occasionally?"

Qin Zhibo glanced at it and found that "Mr. Machida" was one of the two reporters from Donghai Press.

"Hmph, if you really dare to bribe me, I will definitely expose it in the newspaper."

Seeing that Machida was not giving up face at all, Domoto Choo lowered his head slightly, and his eyes under the reflective lenses gradually became gloomy, "I want to see how long you can last with this strength of character."

This slightly ferocious expression made Machida startled, leaving cold sweat on his forehead.

Qin Zhibo was a little puzzled. It seemed that Tobi Publishing House, where Machida worked, was often in opposition to Domoto Company.

In this case, why do you have to invite your enemies over? It was also specially arranged to be on the most important first bus.

The height of the cable car continued to rise, and it didn't take long to reach the aerial cable car tunnel halfway up the mountain.

When the cable car drives into it, darkness engulfs the field of vision, and all light sources come from the cable car itself.

After their naked eyes got used to the darkness, they could see the "good scenery" below.

"Machida-senpai! Come here and take a look below!"

The fat reporter from Donghai News said hello, Machida turned around and saw a shocking scene.

"So many Arhat statues!"

"You people actually spent a lot of money to make something like this!"

Machida reprimanded excitedly, but Domoto Eizo didn't take it seriously. He showed an old fox's face and replied calmly: "Don't be excited. You should say that we have innovative ideas, and these stone statues are also beautiful." How much"

"If tourists know about this attraction, they will definitely rush here to see what kind of sparks the goddess statue and the 500 Arhat statues can create."

"After all, I have to thank the goddess statue. There is no better curse than this."

Just as he was saying this, all the lights of the cable car suddenly went out.

The carriage suddenly became chaotic, and Eizo Domoto, who had been talking eloquently just a second ago, immediately shouted out.

"What's going on! Is there a power outage?"

"Come here! Turn on the lights quickly!"

"What's wrong!"

Secretary Yoshino's shouts rang out in the dark carriage, although the most suitable person to turn on the lights was obviously her secretary.

At this moment, the voices of countless monks reciting scriptures rumbled out. The supposedly holy prayers, against the backdrop of this dark environment, turned out to be creepy and trembling.

Just as Qin Zhibo was about to take out his nuclear lighter to see what was causing the problem, Mao Lilan, who was frightened next to him, tilted his body and hugged Qin Zhibo's arm tightly.

Fortunately, Conan couldn't see this scene, otherwise he wouldn't be known as the Jealous King of East Asia.

The brainwashing voice was like the Great Compassion Mantra, and the dark and trembling atmosphere of terror spread in the carriage.

"ah--!"

A scream suddenly sounded in the carriage, but it was not Mao Lilan's voice, but a louder scream.

Conan felt nervous and quickly reminded loudly: "Use the camera spotlight quickly!"

The panicked fat reporter quickly operated, and a strong white light flashed in the carriage, and then quickly went out.

With the residual vision, Qin Zhibo saw the frightened expressions on the faces of everyone in the carriage, but the light at this moment was not enough to judge the situation clearly.

"Again!"

Conan shouted again, but just as the fat reporter wanted to operate the camera, the camera in his hand was knocked to the ground.

"My camera!"

hateful!

When he learned that the camera had fallen, Conan cursed inwardly.

However, Qin Zhibo had already turned on his night vision goggles at this time, and could clearly distinguish everyone's positions in the faint green light.

I saw silhouettes of people standing in confusion around the carriage. Only one person had opened the seat panel of the car seat and was trying to get inside.

Judging from the slightly bloated figure, it was none other than Eizo Domoto.

Next to Domoto Eizo, Domoto Choo stood beside him in a protective posture. After Domoto Eizo got in, he re-covered the seat panel from the outside, stuck something on the glass, and sat back down. Sitting on the seat, pretending that nothing happened.

Qin Zhibo: Ah this

The entire 30-second tunnel journey passed quickly. When the light illuminated the cable car again, the monk's voice immediately disappeared. As expected, people discovered that someone was missing.

"Ah? How could this happen!"

"The president is missing!"

There was only Domoto Choo on the seat, and Domoto Eizo was nowhere to be seen in the carriage. Everyone couldn't help but exclaim, and even Conan's eyes widened in surprise.

Only Qin Zhibo looked calm, as calm as water as an old monk in meditation.

Conan's brain immediately reacted and he glanced at the left and right doors of the cable car. There were people guarding them.

The glass was completely sealed, the ventilation openings in the ceiling were so small that even I couldn't get through, and the emergency escape equipment under the cable car floor was not used.

Why on earth did he disappear?

Conan's face was full of disbelief, and his worldview seemed to be shattered.

"What is this!"

At this moment, Domoto Nagao looked at the glass and exclaimed.

Everyone looked away and saw a piece of talisman paper taped to the glass with the four characters "karma" written on it.

"Karma?! What does this mean?"

"Could it be that the curse of the goddess statue has come true!"

Machida from the newspaper office exclaimed, making the weird atmosphere in the carriage even more intense.

Great, that's it.

Domoto Choo saw that the situation was almost over, but no one had noticed the dummy in the hand of the goddess outside, so he took the initiative to stand up.

"Look! That is"

Domoto Nagao's words stopped suddenly, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

Because he couldn't believe that the dummy he placed with his own hands actually disappeared at this moment!

its not right!

I remember putting the dummy there with my own hands after I parted ways with Qin Zhibo yesterday!

But why is it gone now?

Could it be a goddess statue?

Looking at the statue of a holy goddess whose skin was full of traces of time, the trembling Domoto Choo screamed in fright and fell to the ground.

"ah!"

Domoto Choo fell to the ground and was shaking all over. Domoto Rina quickly came over to help him.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?"

"Are you okay? Brother" Tang Benjinan also came up.

At this time, the Domoto family finally showed a little cohesion.

Qin Zhibo looked at Domoto Choo's reaction and what he and Domoto Eiji had done in the tunnel just now, and he guessed something was going on.

It seems that the dummy was a plan jointly planned by Domoto Eihaya and Choon. The purpose may be to perform a dramatic transformation into a living person to prove that the curse is fake.

Using magic to prove the non-existence of magic, it seems that Koizumi Anko wanted to hunt down Kaitou Kidd in the first place for this reason.

It's just a pity that the perfect plan of the father and son resulted in the dummy being "swallowed" by the system due to their own misoperation yesterday.

I'm sorry for eating a "person" alive.

Qin Zhibo apologized again in his heart, and then thought about what to do now.

Although he knew that Eizo Domoto was hiding in the space under the car seat, it seemed too disrespectful to his employer to reveal it directly.

Only half of the commission fee was settled. If I had pulled Domoto Eizou out from under the seat in that extremely embarrassing way, the reporter would be right next to him, and he would definitely take pictures and publish it in the newspaper.

When the time comes, Domoto Eizo will surely be discredited and make people laugh.

If Domoto Eizo is made unhappy, he may not be able to get the remaining 500,000 commission fee.

This is the time to test whether you are a good person or not.

When a leader shows off his "intelligence", should he expose it outright and make the leader lose face in public, or should he let things take their own course, watch the performance in silence, and shout "6" at the end?

Anyone who has been in the workplace should know that the first kind of social animal will probably starve to death long ago.

Anyway, there is no way to remedy it now. Qin Zhibo can only choose the second principle of dealing with things, which is to pretend not to know anything.

This is called great wisdom and foolishness!

"Wow! People are really missing!"

Qin Zhibo screamed in surprise, his acting skills were as exaggerated as the extras invited by Eizo Domoto, which made Conan look back in confusion.

Looking at Qin Zhibo's slightly exaggerated expression management, I vaguely felt that the uncle in front of me seemed to know something.

But after thinking about it for a while, Conan decided to rely on his own strength to solve the puzzle. After all, such a high-quality puzzle has aroused his desire to win as a famous steamed egg.

How do you escape from a closed space suspended in the air?

Conan held his chin up, lost in thought.

Within a few minutes, the cable car arrived at the top station.

Everyone quickly ordered to notify the staff at the top of the mountain station and ask them to send people to search along the route of the cable car.

"President Domoto seems to have fallen into the mountain!"

"Everyone, hurry up and search! And notify the people down the mountain!"

"Contact the police immediately!"

The staff rushed out one after another and ran down the mountain.

Domoto Eizo himself could not be found in the clearly visible carriage, and they could only guess that he had fallen into the mountains. Everyone took action based on this premise.

Two reporters from Donghai News Agency hurried to the landline phone at the Peak Station and made a call to the newspaper office.

"I'm Machida! Give me the first page of the evening paper!"

"The curse really happened. Eizo Domoto suddenly disappeared from the cable car just now!"

"That's right! He disappeared! It's like going to another world."

The trembling Domoto eldest son walked down the mountain with the support of his second son and elder sister, while Conan and Mao Lilan ran further ahead.

The summit station was in chaos for a while, except Qin Zhibo standing there, silently watching the aerial cable car.

Although Qin Zhibo did not intend to expose Domoto Eizo's tricks in public, he was not his subordinate after all, but a detective hired by him as a guest.

If he thought that the famous detective was so easy to fool, wouldn't his reputation in the world be in danger?

Rich people also have their own social circles. If Eizo Domoto spreads nonsense among rich people, saying that the famous detective Qin Zhibo is nothing more than that, and is deceived by his wise self, then what's the point?

Therefore, Qin Zhibo's real way of dealing with the world is to preserve the face of Domoto Eizao without losing his own face.

You can expose his trick yourself, but you have to find a place where no one is around.

In this way, Domoto Eizou discovered that his trick was discovered from the beginning, but the wise and foolish detective did not expose his face directly, so he would definitely be grateful, and maybe even give him an extra sum of money.

There was no one else in the empty cable car, so it was a good time for a showdown with Eizo Domoto.

Qin Zhibo was about to walk towards the cable car. Suddenly, a figure came out from the steps and jumped into the cable car first.

Taking a closer look, it turned out to be Secretary Yoshino Ayaka with long flowing hair!

What happened to her?

Could it be that she also saw Domoto Eizo's trick?

However, her identity is a secretary and a social worker of the company. There is no need to show her intelligence in this way in both public and private matters, unless she no longer wants the job.

This is not that great wisdom appears as foolishness, but that great foolishness appears as wisdom.

When Qin Zhibo was confused, the aerial cable car sounded a warning tone that it was about to depart.

Although there is no one at the top station now, everyone has gone down the mountain to find Eizo Domoto, but the departure of the cable car is automatically controlled by the system.

Qin Zhibo's heart tightened, and he immediately took out the [Lord of the Rings] from the item list and put it on his finger.

185's figure immediately disappeared and got into the cable car before the door closed.
