While Conan was concentrating on removing the loose coat of the skeleton and examining the bones, Shiraishi saw Nishikawa Suimi walking into the secret passage.
She picked up a brick and approached the ignorant Conan from behind with a sullen face.
Shiraishi gave the Nishikawa Suimi camp a √ in his heart.
——Giving her a head first should give her a certain sense of accomplishment.
Shiraishi is like a novice planner of 18th-rate mobile games, carefully striking a balance.
Generally speaking, because the people who came to the castle were no longer the young detective team in the original plot line, but two high-powered rivals, Nishikawa Suimi was at an absolute disadvantage in this contest.
In order to achieve the ghosts' condition of "giving her a sufficient sense of accomplishment and then letting her hit rock bottom", it is necessary to try to balance the forces on both sides and even give Nishikawa Suimi an advantage.
When Shiraishi was thinking, the ghost next to him was also discussing with restraint but could not hide his excitement.
It can be seen that they have been floating in the secret passage for too long, and they are almost sick.
Mao Lilan skillfully caught Bai Shi and took him to ask the castle owner where he could rest.
After she left, some time passed, but Hattori Heiji still hadn't solved the mystery of the lawn chessboard.
Moreover, he had other doubts in his mind.
——Kudo has disappeared for too long.
Hattori Heiji temporarily gave up solving the puzzle and ran to find someone.
However, after looking around, there was no trace of Conan on this entire floor.
Before, he thought that Conan had a clue and went to study it alone.
But now that half an hour has passed, there should be results.
According to Hattori Heiji's understanding of Conan, if Conan couldn't find anything, he would have come back in despair long ago and continued to check the lawn without incident.
And if he discovers something, he will appear in front of his teammates with a proud look on his face and announce his results.
So now, what about people?
Think about it again, Shiraishi, who was very energetic all the way, suddenly fell asleep not long after arriving at the castle. Although he also slept at Nagato's house, this narcoleptic man seemed to choose a comfortable place with a bed...but other possibilities could not be ruled out, such as there was something wrong with the air in the villa.
Thinking of this, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but put his hand into his pocket and tightened his grip on the folding stick.
...This detective from Tokyo who loves to sleep must be some kind of prophet.
He said that something was not right about the castle, and Kudo disappeared out of thin air. If he didn't think that these two people were not so boring, Hattori Heiji would have suspected that they were teaming up to play tricks on him.
By the way, Kudo seems to have said that Shiraishi has an almost eerie intuition about crime that is so accurate that he can even prevent many murders that have not yet happened. It's a pity that he is asleep now, so he can't rely on his skills.
Hattori Heiji looked at the quiet corridor, not intending to stay here any longer.
He began to look for the servants in the castle, intending to ask about the situation in the castle and to investigate suspicious people who might have kidnapped Conan.
Since Miyamitsu is entrusted with this matter, asking these questions will not arouse any suspicion.
…
Corpses often contain a lot of key information, as do bones that have weathered for many years.
Conan in the secret passage soon discovered that the skeleton's foot bones were much thinner than the bones in other parts of the body.
Combined with its approximate age and gender when it was alive, Conan's mind pictured the face of the old lady in a wheelchair he met when he entered the castle.
Thinking about it this way, that old lady did say something very strange.
——Just now in the hall, when several people accidentally mentioned the late grandfather, she said with emotion, "I have become accustomed to the days when he is not around, just like the pattern of banknotes and the size of the passport have changed. It will not be used to it at first." , but as time goes by, you get used to it, time is very scary."
At first glance, this does sound like what an old man who likes to speak great truths would say.
But according to the gardener, the old lady had been staying in the castle since she had a leg problem for more than ten years and had never left the house at all, let alone traveled overseas.
The size of the passport was changed six years ago. How could someone who has never used a new passport make such an analogy out of thin air?
Also, in the previous fire, all the servants who served the old lady were burned to death together with the lady, but the old lady escaped. Could it be...
A terrible suspicion gradually came to Conan's mind.
Before he could take a closer look, there was a sudden heavy blow on his head, as if he had been pushed hard by someone.
Conan lost his balance and fell forward onto the skeleton. Almost at the same time, he heard the sound of bricks falling to the ground.
Conan raised his eyes slightly, and using the flashlight in his watch, he saw the "old lady" standing behind him, holding half a brick in her hand.
The other half broke apart during the sneak attack and fell to the ground.
"..." The bricks were broken, but my head was fine?
Conan was very confused.
Thinking about it carefully, the touch on his head just now didn't feel like someone had hit it with a brick, and now, he didn't feel dizzy or had a headache. Instead, his chin hurt when it hit the skull.
Immediately afterwards, Conan felt itchy on his face and felt a few strands of liquid flowing down his cheek. When it flowed through his nose, he could smell the obvious smell of blood.
Conan was even more confused. This brick can also have its own anesthetic effect?
He originally wanted to touch his head to see if there were any wounds, and at the same time he got up and ran away quickly, away from this dangerous "old lady".
But before that, Conan remembered the hat that Black Cat forcefully put on him not long ago, and the words "Just pretend I've never been here."
...If the black cat hadn't come here and given me that strange hat, I would have been slapped on the head with a brick.
With such a strong force, you should be dizzy for a while.
After coming to this conclusion, Conan closed his eyes and lay still.
Nishikawa Suimi picked up the watch and flashlight that he had dropped, and looked at Conan's face. She was relieved when she saw that the child's head was covered in blood and his eyes were closed.
She stepped forward and picked up the person, grabbed the skeleton wrapped in clothes with her other hand, and led them deeper into the secret passage.
After hearing that Mamiya Mitsuru had found two detectives, Nishikawa Susumi had been paying close attention to these people, trying to intercept them, grab the treasure, and then escape through the secret passage.
But now, the treasure has not been found, and a naughty child accidentally found the secret passage. In such a big secret passage, he happened to encounter the corpse of the real old lady...
Nishikawa Suimei cursed her bad luck in her heart, and decided to wait for the child to starve to death in a few days, then throw him into the woods outside. She pretended that he was playful and slipped into the woods. After getting lost, his feet slipped and he fell and fainted. Just the illusion of starving to death in the woods.
——This is not the first time she has done something similar. Two years ago, a servant discovered the secret of the secret passage in the castle, and she also dealt with it in this way. Nishikawa Suimi was very skillful in doing it.
