Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 1174 Murder on Secret Treasure Island 2

The treasure hunt didn't go well at the beginning. First, the island owner was killed, and then it was discovered that there was an unexpected guest among the crowd.

However, after the only island owner who knew the guest list was killed, it was impossible to judge who was the one who sneaked in.

After a brief silence, Mei Zuobi chose to live in the wooden house of the island owner's villa under the eyes of everyone, and gave up her original wooden house to the bald uncle.

"Ah Cheng, is the murderer really pretending to be a guest?"

"It should be. After the other party kills the island owner, they can hunt for treasure as a guest."

Gao Cheng took the luggage and sent Yuanzi and others to the wooden house opposite the ranch. When walking through the ranch, he could feel the unique pastoral style of the island.

It's just that when I look at it now, there is no such peace as before.

"Staying in this kind of place with the murderer for a week, it's scary to think about it," Yuanzi's face was full of worry, "Maybe we will be killed too..."

"Just be careful, don't run around outside."

Gao Cheng helped several people put down their luggage.

In his view, even if the murderer intends to kill serially, there is no reason to attack Yuanzi first, unless Yuanzi sees something and needs to silence him.

Besides, Xiaolan's force is more or less a guarantee.

After several people settled down, Gao Cheng took Conan to the wooden house where he was staying.

And the ranch wooden house happened to be on the way, went straight to the place near the green torii gate and the pier, and was the neighbor of the curly-haired uncle named Yahagi.

"Hey, Kido," Conan thought for a while, and finally said, "Do you really think that the murderer came to kill the island owner in advance to join the treasure hunt?"

"It looks like this, but it's not without doubts," Gao Cheng observed the surrounding environment, "If you really want to hide yourself, you can completely dispose of the island owner's corpse, and the Japanese doll imitating the corpse is also very strange. It's like creating panic on purpose."

"I think so too, but why?"

"Yes, why?"

Gao Cheng used the key distributed by Meizuobi to enter the cabin, and his eyes became even more thoughtful.

"Actually, it was very strange at the beginning. The owner of Meizuo Island didn't so much like to be isolated from the world, it's better to say that he was so selfish that he was afraid that someone would come to snatch the treasure, but he just started this treasure hunt again.

If I'm not wrong, the island owner probably didn't think about sharing the treasure at all. If he really found the treasure, he would probably kill everyone, right? That's why we are not allowed to carry mobile phones. "

"No way?" Conan asked in surprise.

"This is human nature. The more closed a place is, the more it can arouse evil thoughts in my heart," Gao Cheng explained, "I actually checked before I came here. It was originally called Secret Treasure Island because too many people died. It was changed to Sad News Island, and then it fell into the hands of the owner of Mizusa Island 10 years ago, and it seems that something happened at that time.”

"Dingling!" The phone in the wooden house rang suddenly.

"Is it Detective Kido?" Iwata Butler contacted, "Dinner may be delayed a bit, if necessary, you can go to the villa to get some snacks first."

"No, we brought our own snacks."

...

It was said to be postponed, but it was not until 9 pm that everyone was notified to go to the villa for dinner, and because the stinky corpse of the island owner was discovered during the day, everyone had no appetite.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, except for the uncle Kakimoto in camouflage who went out, everyone stayed in the living room of the villa after dinner.

In the living room, there is a screen with a code written on it, and a waka on it.

"The vermilion bird perches on the river of a hundred stone boats, and the black bird cries mournfully, groaning and drifting in the passing water. Our eyes of demon nature are gradually opened, and we climb the path of the shadow of the moon, until we reach the jade protected by the mountain boy..."

Amidst the chirping of insects in the summer night, the treasure hunters silently watched the waka on the screen, thinking about its meaning.

"After solving the mystery of this waka, you should be able to find the treasure, right?"

"The jade protected by Shan Tong is a treasure..."

"I said Butler Iwata," the bald man near the clock frowned, covering his nose,

"Haven't you cleaned the clock?"

"Hold, I'm sorry, I'll wash it right away."

"Strange," the curly-haired man wondered, "Where's Kaki himself? That guy is a famous treasure hunter, why haven't I seen him since just now?"

"Maybe he went back to his cabin to study," the bald man snorted. "That guy is mysterious, and he probably doesn't want to be with us at all."

When Butler Iwata started to clean the clock, the bald man got up and went out, "I'll go out for a while..."

Misakubi returned to the living room with the dinner plate, and happened to pass by the bald man: "I brought drinks and snacks for everyone... Where is Mr. Yashishima going?"

"Go to the toilet," the bald man said impatiently, "remember to leave a bottle of drink for me."

"OK."

"Well," Gao Cheng asked while drinking a drink, "Is there any problem with the coast behind the villa? When I went there before, there was a sign at the intersection. The writing on it was not very clear, but it seemed to say no entry."

"It has been blocked there since a long time ago," Iwata Butler explained, "because there will be intermittent fountains at noon every day, which will spray hot spring water with a temperature of more than 120 degrees."

"So that's how it is," Gao Chenghou said fearfully, "but there is a geyser here, which means..."

Mei Zuobi smiled and said, "Yes, there is an open-air hot spring behind the villa."

"Really? Then I'll go..."

"Let's go to the hot spring, Xiaolan!"

Before Gao Cheng could speak, Yuanzi and the others decided to take a bath first, and let Gao Cheng and Conan guard outside by the way.

"It's actually a mixed bath," Gao Cheng regretted hearing the sound of splashing water in the bath, "it shouldn't matter if I go in for a dip, right?"

"Wow!"

A basin of hot spring water was poured over the fence to the height of one's head.

"Bah bah!" Conan, who was suffering, wiped the corners of his eyes again and again, and then glared at Gao Cheng.

"It's just a joke, don't you need to slap me?" Gao Cheng wiped his face.

The hot spring water here has a strong smell because it contains sulfides, but it is also a rare natural hot spring. He originally wanted to relax and activate his mind.

Looking at it like this, I can't make it today.

...

On the second day of the treasure hunt, Mei Zuobi prepared a rich breakfast early in the morning, and everyone gathered outside the villa to welcome the arrival of a new day.

"No way?" The bespectacled doctor Huocun's face was not very good, "Fried chicken legs, chicken wings... are all deep-fried. I can't eat these things early in the morning. My stomach is not good..."

"No, I'm very sorry," Misakubi bowed her head and said, "I just want to cheer everyone up, so..."

"Mr. Huomura, let's eat some fruit first." Gao Cheng bit the fried chicken leg and said, "I really like this breakfast. I didn't eat much yesterday."

"Hey, what is this?!" The curly-haired uncle kicked out a torn Japanese doll from under the table, "Why is there such a thing here?"

The doll is covered in red ketchup, which looks scary at first glance.

"Who the hell did this prank?"

"No," Gao Cheng said in a deep voice, "This is not a prank, someone is using these Japanese dolls to imply the guests here... Where is Mr. Iwata?"

"I seem to be looking for Mr. Kakimoto."

"Speaking of which, I really didn't see that guy Kakimoto..."

"It's bad!" Just as everyone was talking, Iwata Butler ran out of the forest sweating profusely, and shouted in a panic, "Mr. Kakimoto has an accident!"
