Jiang Xia walked into the haunted house. Soon, he found a lifted floor at the end of the corridor, revealing a flight of steps.
Follow the steps behind the floor and go all the way down to the bottom, and a lighted dungeon appears in front of you.
This is where the filial son is imprisoned by his mother.
The door was open, and Conan's reasoning voice could be heard faintly inside.
Jiang Xia walked to the door and looked inside.
A row of iron bars ran across the center of the room, dividing a cell.
The son was sitting in the cell with unkempt hair and a shikigami on his lap.
Outside the railing, there were three people - Conan, Ayumi, and a white-haired, very thin woman.
The silver-white waist-length hair made Jiang Xia move her fingers slightly, reflexively wanting to grab something.
However, if you calm down for a moment, you will find that the murderous aura in the woman is very weak.
It can only be classified as "can satisfy hunger", and it is not even as fresh as the murderous aura of the kidnapper last time.
The ghost baby looked at the woman in front of him, and after being startled for a moment, he became slightly disappointed.
However, it is not as picky as Jiangxia, and I am very satisfied if I eat it with murderous intent. So I jumped down to the ground still very motivated, ready to pick it up.
The white-haired woman held a knife and stared at Conan and Ayumi who were huddled in the corner, feeling extremely emotional.
She turned her back to the door and didn't notice there was another person over there.
Conan saw it, and his reasoning voice paused for a moment, then quickly continued as if nothing had happened.
However, he obviously failed to control his emotions.
When he spoke, his energy was much stronger than before.
Fortunately, the old woman was not in a good mental state and did not notice anything unusual about Conan.
Ayumi looked at Jiang Xia timidly, but also said nothing.
I don’t know if he became resourceful in the crisis, or he was too frightened to make a sound.
Of course, it could also be the common misconception that Yan Gou has - the big brother at the door doesn't look like a bad guy.
…
Conan is obviously the kind of detective who, once his reasoning gets the best of him, will finish his reasoning before he dies, even if it means risking his life.
In fact, at first, the white-haired old lady didn't want to kill anyone.
Genta and Mitsuhiko, who were lying in the yard, were only stunned by her.
She thought that even if a child reported the crime, the police would not pay attention.
But Conan is different.
——Conan not only saw his son in the dungeon, he even guessed that his son was the murderer back then.
"There is a homeless man hiding in a haunted house" is completely different from "there is a wandering murderer hiding in a haunted house".
If it's the latter, the police might actually come.
So at this time, the white-haired woman listened to Conan's reasoning and felt some real murderous intent in her body.
When Conan said, "The one who killed your husband was actually your son," the old woman finally broke out.
"Shut up!" She grabbed Conan's neck and raised the kitchen knife with a ferocious expression.
Ayumi let out a scream and covered her eyes.
Conan was also confused.
……Wait a moment.
Why is the script different from what he thought?
He clearly saw Jiang Xia just now.
Shouldn't the normal situation be like this: Jiang Xia deduces the truth by himself, Jiang Xia simultaneously controls the old woman, and finally the two of them smile at each other in a tacit understanding, and take out their mobile phones to call the police while hiding their merit and fame.
Why……
Conan was so pinched that he felt dizzy.
He couldn't help but start to doubt himself, struggling to take another look at the door to find out if it was Jiang Xia who was coming.
But the old woman blocked his view.
——The angry mother let out a roar, closed her eyes tightly, and slashed with the knife. With her eyes open, she was afraid that she would be soft-hearted.
However, before the blade could pierce the human body, her palm suddenly became empty.
The kitchen knife held high was pulled away from behind.
Almost at the same time, someone pressed on her shoulder.
When the white-haired woman came to her senses, half of her body was numb and she was slumped on the ground.
There was a faint sound of sirens outside the house.
Jiang Xia glanced at the door and thought that he was indeed a policeman in this world.
He threw the knife he had taken away into the corner, and suddenly found a mop at his feet, so he picked it up.
Although the tunnel door is open, it will definitely take some time for the police to find the entrance.
Before the police arrive, quickly knock the murderous spirit loose.
Just now, Jiang Xia could actually seize the sword earlier.
However, seeing that the more Conan babbled, the more murderous aura appeared in the white-haired woman... Jiang Xia waited with a hint of curiosity, wanting to see how high the murderous aura could rise.
The results are satisfactory.
Conan's ability to draw hatred is truly worthy of praise.
The white-haired woman sitting on the ground covered her shoulders, turned around, and looked at Jiang Xia, who was carrying a mop, with a look of reluctance.
The two looked at each other.
After a while, the murderous aura wrapped around the old lady's body began to loosen consciously.
...Perhaps after weighing the strength of both sides, she quickly realized that she could not continue killing people. So I can only give up the idea of killing people.
When the ghost baby who had been waiting nearby for a long time saw this, he trotted over and rolled the fallen murderous aura into a fluffy ball like rolling marshmallows, then brought it back and showed it to Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia half-crouched down, took out the cigarette box containing Ghost Mint, tore open the sealed package, and let the murderous intent flow in.
