Stay away from Conan

Chapter 347 After tripping

When he came to the electric switch at the back door again, Gao Yuan skillfully turned the main switch of the tripped electric switch on again. After turning it on again, the lights in the villa immediately became bright again.

After waiting for a while and seeing that the switch did not continue to trip, Gao Yuan looked at Xiaolan and Yuanzi behind him and began to ask Xiaolan:

"Ms. Xiaolan, when I came to check on the power switch, what happened in the hall?"

Gao Yuan remembered clearly that he turned on the switch and was about to return to the hall, but the switch tripped again. When he was about to go back and check the status of the switch, Xiaolan's shout made him feel that the situation was not good, so he hurriedly He hurriedly ran back to the hall, and then discovered that Xiao Ai was missing.

Obviously, something must have happened at that time, and Xiaolan screamed at that time, so Xiaolan must have seen something at that time.

Moreover, Gao Yuan trusted Xiaolan and Yuanzi's speeches more than those members of the university film research club.

So, after Xiaolan and Yuanzi looked at each other, they began to tell what happened at that time——

The hall looked quite bright because there were many candles.

But because the windows on the second floor were broken, gusts of wind blew into the house from the broken windows, causing the burning candles to begin to sway, and the reflections of everyone under the candles also swayed - just like everyone's mood. Not a moment of peace.

Perhaps it was due to Gao Yuan's instructions before leaving, or perhaps it was indeed the safest situation to stay in the brightly lit hall at this moment. Everyone was sitting at the dining table, no one took the initiative to speak, and quietly waited for the development of the situation.

Soon, when the lights that had been extinguished shined again, and the bright lights covered up the light of the candles, everyone's originally depressed mood could not help but relax at this moment——

"Did you call? Is it repaired?"

Looking at the lights, Ota Katsu raised his head and looked around, and found that all the lights were on, and couldn't help but sigh.

At the same time, Ohta Katsu's original nervous mood couldn't help but relax a little. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, stretched it out to the still burning candle, lit the cigarette with the candle, blew it gently, and removed the candle. After blowing out the fire, he put the lit cigarette to his mouth and started smoking.

"It seems that the power outage just now was really just an accident!"

Hiroki Kakutani said slightly excitedly, and Atsuko Amamiya nodded in agreement, and imitated Ota Masaru, blowing out the candle in front of her.

"In this case, there is no need to waste any more candles."

Amemiya Atsuko said with a slight smile, and others present agreed and blew out all the remaining candles.

"But what about the windows upstairs?"

Yuanzi looked up at the broken windows upstairs and said doubtfully:

"Could it be just an accident?"

"Oh, why do you think so much? Just go up and take a look and you will know!"

Ohta Masaru took a puff of cigarette and seemed to be very relaxed and said, then stood up from the chair and walked towards the second floor.

In response, Conan immediately trotted upstairs——

"What happened?"

When he came to the broken floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the large amount of broken glass falling into the house, Ota Masaru said with some surprise:

"It's full of glass shards..."

"Maybe someone really slipped in from here."

Crouching down and seeing that the lock on the floor-to-ceiling window was still intact, Conan couldn't help but said seriously -

In the current situation, it is obvious that external force broke the glass from outside the house, and the lock on the floor-to-ceiling window is still locked. This should mean that someone outside wants to enter the house, but since the doors and windows are locked, the only option is to Breaking through the window.

"You kid, don't talk nonsense! It's possible that the quality of the glass is just bad and it was blown to pieces by the strong wind!"

Ohta Masaru thought of a possibility and said:

"And if someone broke in from here, we should have discovered him in the hall long ago!"

Conan couldn't refute this. After all, what Ohta Masaru said made some sense:

If someone really ran in from here, everyone in the hall at that time should be able to detect the noise. What's more, the ground here is full of broken glass. If someone really sneaked in from outside, that person would definitely be because of Stepping on broken glass will make noise and leave traces...

Thinking like this, Conan finally shook his head——

No, there is another possibility. The other party just broke the glass outside but did not come in! In this case, that person...

Suddenly, when Conan was thinking and Ohta Katsu was about to go downstairs and return to the hall, the lights that were originally on went out again——

Because everyone had blown out all the candles just now, and now the entire hall has once again fallen into deathly darkness!

"What! Is there a power outage again?"

In the darkness, Ota Katsu, who was already walking on the stairs, couldn't help but wonder, and then shouted towards the downstairs:

"Hey! Light up the candles quickly!"

However, after waiting for a while, no one in the hall responded.

However, someone soon realized the problem——

"Ota! We don't have a lighter! Come down quickly!"

Hiroki Kakutani shouted in the darkness.

"Really."

In response to this, Ota Katsu couldn't help but said, took out the lighter from his pocket, and then lit the lighter. With this faint light of the flame, Ota Katsu carefully walked down the stairs, returned to the dining table, and used the lighter to light the lighter. The candles on the table were relit.

Suddenly, the light of the candle illuminated the darkness again.

Seeing the light turn on again and everyone sitting around the dining table, they couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Conan couldn't help but choose to come down from upstairs, not intending to check the situation outside the window for the time being——

"Sister Xiaolan! Behind you!"

Suddenly, when Conan walked down the stairs and was about to walk towards the dining table, Conan suddenly saw a black figure standing in front of the wall behind Xiaolan, because Xiaolan's shadow was reflected on the wall by the candlelight. Blocked, so this black figure is not very conspicuous——

Hearing Conan's shout, Xiaolan turned around subconsciously and saw a figure in a black cloak standing behind her, and his face could be seen covered with bandages——

"ah--"

At this moment, Xiaolan's fear reached its peak when she saw the "bandage weirdo" so close to her, and she couldn't help but scream.

Everyone else present was also frightened by the sudden appearance of the "bandage weirdo".

Xiaolan, Hiroki Kakutani, and Tsunoko Amamiya were stunned, and their bodies were so frightened that they seemed unable to move at all. Sonoko fainted from fear, and Ryoichi Takahashi held his head in his hands in fear and lay on the table without stopping. Trembling——

"Hey! What are you afraid of? He is only one person!"

At the critical moment, Ota Sheng mustered up the courage and shouted to everyone, but Conan was already running, and in the hall lit by candlelight, he was ready to rush to Xiaolan and protect her.

However, the "bandage weirdo" didn't have any scruples about the other people present, and actually rushed straight towards Ota Masaru who had a sense of resistance.

Seeing this, Ota Katsuya couldn't help being frightened by the opponent's aura, and his reaction was slow for a moment. When Ota Katsu gritted his teeth and was about to take the initiative to fight back, the "bandage weirdo" had already thrown up his cloak, and in one fell swoop, he had just lit the fire in front of Ota Katsu. All the candles were extinguished at once, and the entire hall fell into darkness again!

However, just when everyone thought that the "bandage monster" would take advantage of the darkness to take more terrifying actions, nothing seemed to happen, and Gao Yuan's shouts came from not far away, along with the candlelight in Gao Yuan's hand. , also gradually shines into the hall.

So, Ohta Katsu reacted and picked up the lighter again and lit the candle in the hall.

And when Gao Yuan came over, he discovered——

Xiao Ai, I don’t know when, she disappeared!
