Soyanani Castle, room on the third floor.
After hearing what Ye Gengyi said, everyone's eyes fell on the puppy Taicheng and the man with blond hair.
"By the way, I remember hearing the master say before that he originally wanted the second young master to inherit the family business..." A maid in charge of daily life was the first to break the news.
Immediately, the discussion became louder and louder:
"Yes, in comparison, the eldest young master is just...hey, he idles around all day with nothing to do, and he always comes here to ask for money from the master..."
"Well, once I saw the old man was so angry that he threw his beloved vase!"
With the addition of the famous detective buff, most people in the scene believed the detective's words without thinking, and began to discuss the possibility that their eldest young master was a suspect.
When the puppy Taicheng heard this, his expression became more and more gloomy, and he looked like he had a ghost in his heart.
Ye Gengyi had nothing to say about this.
So... to deal with this guy who just has "I am the suspect" engraved on his face, don't take the ordinary path from the beginning. The conventional method of solving crimes, in their opinion, is nothing more than being released on medical parole. thing.
It's also possible that the more you look for evidence, the more excited the other party will be.
Moreover, today's incident is far from that level. At best, it is a charge of abetting a crime or conspiring to commit theft.
The master of the house is gone, so property division, even if the police arrive, can only be regarded as a civil dispute at best.
Typical of me stealing from myself.
Probably because of this, Ye Gengyi would directly point out the suspicion of puppy Taicheng when the evidence was vague.
After all, it wasn't a serious crime. The more he concealed it until the end, the easier it would be for him to overturn it. It was better to admit it openly at the beginning to avoid being found out by the detective again.
To be honest, face is the most valuable thing when it is about to be broken.
Based on this consideration, Ye Gengyi was naturally confident.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you guess wrong.
(눈_눈)After all, he is Kudo Shinichi now...hehe...
"Taicheng, you bastard!" the blond man yelled angrily, "I worked hard to study the structural drawings of the castle, and even took the risk to help you steal the ring. You actually didn't even give me 1 million yen, and you even hired a detective!"
(눈_눈)Oh...Is this person so bad?
Ye Gengyi followed the blond man's direction and his eyes fell on the puppy Taicheng.
Look, what he said is that groups that are prone to conflicts are most likely to fall apart. As long as they are slightly provoked and make both parties think that their interests have been harmed, they may be partners in the blink of an eye. , will become an enemy that stabs you in the back.
Regarding this point, it is the same as his killing of Numabuchi Kiichiro and Gin's killing of organization traitors. They are both methods to eliminate future troubles. However, the former is purely out of necessity, while the latter is absolutely insane!
While he was still complaining about Gin, Taicheng the little dog who was being named over there was also so angry that his face turned livid, "Yuki Longbow, please stop spitting on me!"
Ye Gengyi exposed the two of them with an irresponsible attitude.
This kind of efficient face-to-face fight made the little dog master lose his position for a moment.
Do you want face or money?
These are the two choices before Taicheng the puppy.
If you choose to save face, you have to refuse to admit it. Of course, this method cannot stop Ye Gengyi from continuing to explain the truth, but he has to bet that Xiaoquan Taijun can react. In order to protect the reputation of the Xiaoquan family, he will send these servants away first. people, and then take a long-term view.
As for asking for money, it's even simpler. Just admit that you got carried away for a moment, and no matter what, let your second brother be the head of the family, and just ask that you can continue to live that kind of carefree and dandy life.
However, the escape route he had envisioned was finally sealed by the words of his mentally retarded ally.
It's not a spur of the moment idea, but a premeditated plan!
Thinking a little deeper, is the death of the little dog master also related to you, the eldest young master?
What an injustice!
But what can he do? He is also desperate!
"Brother, why are you doing this?" Xiao Quan Taijun's voice was trembling. After thinking of the word coffin that Ye Gengyi just mentioned, he was stunned for a long time and suddenly started to say hysterically, "Could it be... could it be... .Dad...Dad, he is already dead...did you do it! Say, did you do it!"
"It's not me...it's not me..." The little dog Taicheng was startled and waved his hands repeatedly, "It has nothing to do with me. Dad laid himself into the coffin and then sank. Longbow, longbow can Testify to me! Besides, if I really killed dad, I would have just taken the ring at that time, why did I have to spend so much effort to fish it out of the water!"
"Mr. Kudo..." Inu Taijun quietly looked back and asked for help.
"It's indeed not him," Ye Gengyi explained: "The little dog's body showed no trace of drowning. The scratches on his finger joints were also left when someone forcibly took off the ring after his death."
"Where is my dad?!" the dog Taijun asked.
"Over there..." Ye Gengyi pointed to the glass wall in the room, and then briefly demonstrated how to enter the seawater behind through the hidden air bag.
Of course, since the observation deck is broken, if you want to enter again, you can only wear a diving suit.
"Then it's just a matter of turning on the mechanically powered bed and moving it here."
However, both the coffin and the observation deck had sunk to the bottom of the sea. No matter how Ye Gengyi operated it, he was unable to lower the equipment into a square box.
Now that things have come to this point, it won't make any sense to continue arguing.
Even though the puppy Taicheng had no choice but to plead guilty to Yuuki Changgong.
[...Complete the task and receive rewards: None, event card points +1. Tip: You have accumulated 10 event card points. 】
hint?
Ye Gengyi couldn't help but read this line of text again.
What's behind...
His retina allows for macroscopic viewing, so there is no problem of missing cues.
So, just wanted to tell him that he has completed 10 event card tasks?
Well, the clues were completely insufficient. Even if he wanted to use brute force decryption method, he couldn't use violence against this strange system.
Forget it, let’s leave here first and study it later.
A baffling journey to a castle in the mountains.
Ye Gengyi gave a summary of this journey.
"Mr. Kudo, Mr. Watson, my eldest brother already knows that he was wrong. Please don't spread this matter."
Outside the castle, the two people used urine escape to exchange identities again, and once again got into the car of the puppy Taijun.
The trunk of the car is full of gasoline.
Because the little dog died, the castle was naturally no longer convenient for holding banquets.
Under the insistence of Ye Gengyi and Kuroba Kaito, it was naturally difficult to retain the dog family. Therefore, after discussion, the dog Taijun drove the two people back to the location where the car broke down.
"This time I really caused trouble for you two."
The two got out of the car with gasoline, and the window was lowered again. Taijun the dog stretched out a hand and handed over a box, "A small gift is not a sign of respect. I think it is a reward for keeping it secret for you two."
Kuroba Kaito looked at the tail lights in the distance in silence, and said meaningfully: "Brother, I suddenly remembered the story of Taro Urashima. Do you think...this box can't be opened?"
