Chapter 27
Private Detective
"Tick-tock-"
"Tick-tock-"
The sound of the clock in the house kept ringing. Ever since Chika Mihara and the others finished talking about things until they separated to do their own things, Ida Rui has never seen Ono Tomokazu again. Others in the Mihara family.
Mihara Chika has no other work arrangements today, so when she has enough time, she has been introducing famous and precious things such as landscape paintings left at home to Idarui and others.
[Is this linkage? ! Whose name did I hear! ]
[Detective Agency...Okay, okay, 73 you are promising. ]
[I love linkage, linkage Modo Modo. ]
[I asked Xiao Ke why he sneaked out. As expected, it was the detective's curiosity. ]
[Why hasn’t the victim come out today? I feel like this episode has a lot of information. ]
[The detective has not yet appeared in the evening, and according to Mihara Chika, although she wants Uncle Mouri to investigate the threatening letter, it will never be that simple. ]
[Xiao Ke, you really pay special attention to words like detective. 】
【I just saw the news next door. It seems that they are indeed linked. However, the important green people on both sides seem to only make one appearance, and there will not be many opportunities to meet. Please watch and cherish it. ]
[ I hope there can be more linkages. I want to see Xiao Ke meet other people. 】
【The above "Cherish this moment" may be different from the previous linkage. Anyway, 73's thoughts are difficult to figure out. 】
【Main line! I want the main plot! ! ]
[....]
Idarui looked at the delayed barrage, she had no idea what just happened. It seems that the time there no longer matches her own, but she can know that the two people she just met may not be characters in this world, but characters from another comic.
She felt like she was inexplicably powerful and cool.
But before Idarui could think about it, the system gave her a warning.
Big red characters floated through Idarui's mind, and those words flew by uncontrollably. Idarui didn't know that she had touched something that couldn't be done. She could only watch the red and black words. The words are helpless.
"Liu Yi...?"
Someone seemed to be calling her, it was Mao Lilan's voice.
She looked towards Mao Lilan, but Ida Liuyi could only see her frozen expression.
And those barrages were fixed in Idarui's mind as if the computer had crashed and someone had pressed the pause button.
Idarui then looked around. Everyone present was as motionless as the barrage in her mind. She didn't understand why such a thing happened, so would those [people] who sent barrages in her mind see such a weird scene with her?
She didn't know.
"Rui."
Someone called her again, but Ida Rui looked around and saw nothing strange. Within a few seconds, that voice appeared in Idarui's ears again. When she raised her head and looked in the direction calling her, the rabbit doll she disappeared at first appeared on the street lamp. .
Her pink eyes looked directly at Idarui, and she also raised her head to look at the long-lost rabbit doll, one person and one creature facing each other.
Its appearance is something Idarui will never forget.
"Rui." The rabbit didn't seem to open its mouth, but Ida Rui felt that it was calling her.
Idarui uttered: "Huh..."
"Click."
It made a sound like a clock turning, and at the same time, the rabbit doll disappeared. Idarui not only witnessed its disappearance, but she Looking around the next second, the crows flying by and the quiet scene proved that the rabbit was not present.
The others continued to move forward as if the 'One Two Three Wooden Man' game had never happened and the pause button was pressed.
Is this my own illusion?
Idarui shook her head, she firmly believed that everything just now was true.
Mao Lilan looked at the dazed Ida Liuyi behind him and stopped and said, "What's wrong with you? Liu Yi."
"No." Ida Liuyi shook her head after hearing Mao Lilan's words, and then she Then he kept up with Mao Lilan and the others.
The large red characters and the barrage also seemed to have never happened because of the disappearance of the doll. The large characters disappeared and the barrage flew by quickly. No one noticed what happened just now, and the live broadcast continued normally.
Idarui knew everything that had just happened briefly, but Edogawa Conan and others did not know. She doesn't know how to tell her now. Maybe if she says it, those people will think she is crazy.
But because Idarui is driven by curiosity, if she can act on her own without delaying others or has more clues, maybe Idarui will know why all this happened.
However, Idarui knew that she was a child, and she could not do dangerous actions to cause trouble for others because of her own thoughts. So Idarui kept everything in his heart and didn't tell anyone.
Before evening, neither Mr. Mihara nor Tsubasa Mihara showed up.
"Ah——!!!"
In the Mihara family's room dedicated to collecting antiques, a faint sound was heard from elsewhere, but no one present noticed it.
"Dong dong dong."
"Qian...Miss Qianhua...It's not good...Master Mihara died in the living room...!!"
A sound of footsteps came from far to near to the door of the room, Ono Zhi hurriedly looked for everyone, and it turned out that the shout in the distance just now was made by him.
When he finally saw Chika Mihara and the others, he briefly told everyone what he had just seen.
News that Mr. Mihara died mysteriously in the living room.
Everyone expressed surprise at what happened suddenly, and the next second everyone followed Satoshi Ono to the scene of the crime.
When Idarui saw Mr. Mihara, he was bleeding from the corner of his mouth and in miserable condition.
Mr. Mihara was standing upside down, one of his feet was tied up by a rope, and the rope's path was suspended all the way along the ceiling and fixed to the top of the beam with a knot.
It's not like suicide.
Even a child in Idarui can see this.
"What's going on?!"
Mouri Kogoro asked the first discoverer, Ono Satoshi. Then he stopped everyone present from entering the crime scene to prevent the evidence at the scene from being disturbed. Moori Kogoro could only let everyone stand. At the door, he confirmed the fact that the other party was dead.
"Xiaolan calls the police."
"No!"
Satoshi Ono told everyone briefly. When he opened the door, he saw the body of Mr. Mihara and Maori Xiaowu. After hearing and confirming that the other party was dead, he was ready to ask Maorilan to call the police. At the time, Ono Satoshi immediately rejected Mouri Kogoro's proposal.
Ono Satoshi's eyes were panicked. After he subconsciously finished speaking, he looked at Mihara Chika who remained silent. When Mihara Chika shook her head to tell him not to continue talking, Ono Satoshi could only retract his emotions.
Edogawa Conan didn't know why Ono Satoshi seemed so excited. He looked at every move between Ono Satoshi and Mihara Chika, and Edogawa Conan always felt that there was something inconsistent.
The police officers from Yokohama arrived soon. When they heard that Kogoro Mouri was a detective traveling to Yokohama from Mikka Town, the leader exchanged a few words with Uncle Mouri.
"I'm sorry, Officer Miura, Mr. Mori is a guest I personally invited. I don't think Mr. Mori and his family have anything to do with my father's death."
Chika Mihara knew that the police officer was suspicious of Kogoro Mori and others. Chika Mihara, who is familiar with Officer Minura, also has a close relationship with the Armed Detective Agency. This is what Officer Mihara knew after hearing about the case at the Mihara family.
"Ms. Chika, may I take the liberty to ask Mr. Mihara Tsubasa and Mr. Mihara Ryogo."
Police officer Minura asked Mihara Chika and Ono Satoshi as usual. As a detective of Yoneka Town, Mouri Kogoro didn't understand each other's situation. Next, Officer Minura actually doesn’t trust Kogoro Mouri very much.
Mao Lilan and Ida Liuyi, who could not do anything, could only stay quietly and wait for the results of the police officer's investigation.
"After we talked about the matter with Mr. Mori this afternoon, we all met the eldest brother, but we never saw him again until the discovery of my father's body." Mihara Chika said, "As for the second brother... he should be I went to pick up another private detective from Mihua Town."
Mihara Chika's tone seemed to be helpless.
On the other side, when Kogoro Mouri saw Edogawa Conan disobeying him and running around at the crime scene, he hit Conan on the head with his fist.
"Liu Yi, do you want to sit outside for a while?" Mao Lilan was afraid that Ida Liuyi would feel uncomfortable when she saw the corpse, so she diverted Ida Liuyi's attention and asked.
After hearing Mao Lilan's words, Ida Liuyi followed her wishes and agreed.
Maybe she really needed some time to sort out everything she had just seen.
The fresh air and atmosphere were much better for Idarui than the feeling inside the crime scene.
And Idarui puffed up his cheeks and exhaled loudly, which made Mao Lilan smile. When they stayed quietly in the courtyard to relax and did not hinder any of the police officers' work, Mihara Ryougo took Idarui and Mao Lilan to both. When the familiar blond man walked towards this side, Mao Lilan, who noticed the two men, confirmed the familiar person...
Mao Lilan said: "Mr. Amuro?"
Idarui looked at him intently. After looking at Amuro Toru and Mihara Ryougo, Maori Ran said: "Hey, it's Amuro brother."
Liu Yi didn't expect to see the person who worked in Poirot Cafe again so soon. She saw As Mihara Ryougo walked back and forth between them, Idarui did not ask any questions immediately. Instead, he was waiting for the adults present to take the initiative to speak.
