So, Fangzheng, Lan, and Conan began to search the entire Hun Mansion.
In fact, even Fangzheng did not know if they could find any clues. In fact, knowing about Umaru Renye was already a major clue. As long as they had a clear target and kept investigating, they would find the other party's lair sooner or later. But if Umaru Renye was hiding some secrets or clues in this mansion, wouldn't it be possible to speed things up a little?
Unfortunately, the manor was indeed huge. Fangzheng spent all day looking around, but all he discovered were things that were completely unrelated to each other.
While they were wandering around the Hun Mansion, the other invited guests arrived one after another.
They were the white-haired, elderly, reclining chair detective Chikuma.
The car lover detective Haruhisa Shigi.
The famous gourmet detective Juzan Ogami.
The former prosecutor detective Ikumi Kata.
And another famous high school detective, Detective Hakuma.
It was a gathering of detectives.
Looking at the room full of detectives, Fangzheng felt that he did not fit in at all. Mouri Kogoro was, after all, a dormant Kogoro. Xiao Lan had made her debut as a female high school detective and had built quite a reputation. Conan was the famous high school detective Kudo Shinichi. He was the only one who had nothing to do with being a detective ….
"I didn't expect to see so many detectives gathered in one place. What a rare sight."
The handsome Haruhisa Shigi looked at the room full of detectives and could not help but sigh. The high school detective, Detective Hakuma, smiled and shook his finger.
"But one of us isn't a detective."
As soon as Detective Hakuma's voice fell, everyone looked at Fangzheng. He raised his hand helplessly.
"Just to be clear, I'm just a driver."
"You're underestimating yourself by saying you're a driver, Mr. Fangzheng."
At this time, the former public prosecutor, Mikumi Kaeda, smiled.
"I heard from a friend in the Metropolitan Police Department that there's a famous mind reader in the department. No matter what kind of criminal it is, nothing can hide from him..."
"You flatter me. It's just some small tricks."
Fangzheng waved his hand.
"It's just the application of some basic knowledge. I can't compare to you detectives (Grim Reaper)."
At least no one will die wherever I go.
Fortunately, Fangzheng swallowed his words. Otherwise, it would have been another tragedy of them killing each other on the spot.
After that, because the agreed chef didn't show up, the Food Detective Osamu Jusan flew into a rage and decided to cook the food himself. The rest were brought to the dining room by the maid, where a man dressed like an FFF member was sitting. Upon seeing everyone's arrival, the man immediately began to spout nonsense.
Of course, it was nothing more than to introduce the history of this villa to everyone — Fangzheng had already told Maori Kogoro and Xiaolan before, and then talked about the tragedy that happened forty years ago. After everyone finished their dinner, this stubborn guy finally revealed his true purpose.
It turned out that he wanted the detectives to come here to search for treasure!
Hearing this, Fangzheng and Conan perked up a little. Although they didn't know if the treasure this person was looking for was related to Umaru Renya, at least the other party said that there was still a hidden mystery in this villa that hadn't been solved. If the secret was related to Umaru Renya, then they might really be able to find some clues.
But the other detectives obviously weren't interested. A few of them immediately stood up and planned to leave, but …
"This guy's not that hard to kill."
Looking at the Food Detective Osamu Jusan who died with his hands on his neck and a face full of pain, Fangzheng shook his head. With so many Grim Reapers gathered together, someone was bound to die. He originally thought that the unlucky one would be the maid, but he didn't expect that the first one to die would be Osamu Jusan, who was also a detective?
Was this like raising a poisonous insect? Gather all the Grim Reapers together, and see who survived in the end, and the strongest Grim Reaper would be the one?
Fortunately, Kindaichi didn't come. Otherwise, more people would have died.
Not only that, there was another piece of bad news. All their cars parked at the entrance had exploded, including Fangzheng's poor Mercedes-Benz. The crowd panicked. Just as they were about to settle the score with the FFF gang member, they discovered that the person sitting in front of them was a dummy with a built-in video tape and timer ….
Fortunately, the maid's car was parked at the back door and was not destroyed. They immediately decided to send a few people to check out the situation on the bridge outside, while the others stayed in the guesthouse. In the end, Ms. Senken, Kogoro Mouri and Naruto Mogi drove the maid's car to investigate the situation, while the others waited for news in the guesthouse.
But Fangzheng was too lazy to play this game. He just sat in the dining room and looked at the words written on the paper in his hand. This was the hint that the guy left them through the message he left earlier.
"Two travelers in a hurry are looking up at the sky at night, and the devil has suddenly descended on the castle …. What kind of bullsh * t is this?"
Fangzheng threw the note away. He had no interest in this kind of childish decryption game! This was a game where the other party dragged you down to the same level as him, and then used his rich experience to defeat you. Conan might be very enthusiastic about this kind of decryption, but Fangzheng had no interest at all.
Forget it. Since someone died, let's end it quickly.
Thinking of this, Fangzheng stood up and planned to leave the dining room.
But at that moment ….
"Meow …."
Suddenly, a low cat's meow sounded. This made Fangzheng stunned for a moment. He walked out of the dining room and came to the corridor. He saw a black shadow scuttling across the corridor. Fangzheng thought for a moment, then quickly walked to the end of the corridor. Then, he found a black cat curled up and sleeping on the stairs leading to the second floor at the end of the corridor.
"Oh, isn't this my little cutie!"
Fangzheng stared at the little cat for a long time, then suddenly reached out and hugged it.
"You followed me too, that's great!"
While saying that, Fangzheng rubbed his face against the little cat's belly. Ah, this familiar touch, this soft and warm kitten, this is my little cat.
"Meow, meow."
After being hugged and rubbed by Fangzheng, the little cat also meowed and stretched out its little claws to press Fangzheng's face.
"We're back, Mr. Fangzheng, what are you doing …."
At this moment, the others had also returned to the guesthouse. When they saw Fangzheng hugging and rubbing against the kitten, Lan, Conan, and the others were also stunned. Then, Lan also hurried to Fangzheng's side.
"Wow, what a cute kitten. Is it a pet here?"
"No, this is my cat."
"Huh? Mr. Fangzheng, do you have a cat? I've never seen it before? "
"That's because I just brought it here recently, and I didn't have time to introduce it to you. I didn't expect it to hide in the car and follow us."
"That was really dangerous …."
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Lan also took a deep breath. One must know that Fangzheng's car was blown up into a fireball just now. If this kitten was also in it, it would be too dangerous.
But … it's so cute!
While holding the little cat's claws, Lan could not help but reach out to touch it.
"Mr. Fangzheng, what's its name?"
"I've always called it a little guy. I never gave it a name. It's actually quite good this way."
Fangzheng touched the little cat's little head.
"Well, since something has happened, I don't think we're interested in continuing to play this game with the murderer. Let's catch the murderer first."
"But what should we do?"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Mikumi Kameda asked curiously.
"Do you have evidence?"
"I don't need evidence."
Fangzheng shook his head.
"Let's catch them in the act."
At the same time, below the guesthouse, Mouri Kogoro and Mogi Haruishi were also stunned when they saw the car on fire. When they drove here, everything was still fine. But as expected, the bridge was destroyed. So, Mogi Haruishi asked the old lady, Ms. Chien, who was sitting in the car, to turn on the high beam to check the situation on the opposite side. But at that moment, the car suddenly exploded, and then it fell into the broken bridge.
While the two of them were dumbfounded, a little black man quietly entered the Huanghun Mansion. It sneaked into the mansion and quickly went to the second floor. Then, it pressed a button and opened a mezzanine on the ceiling. The little black man grabbed a rope and climbed up. Then, it put the rope away and closed the mezzanine again. Then, it sat in front of the table and looked at the surveillance screen in front of it.
But to the little black man's surprise, there was no trace of anyone else in the Hun Villa on the surveillance screen!
"Click."
At this time, suddenly, a dazzling light came on, followed by a few flashlights flashing from the darkness, shining on the little black man.
"I didn't expect you to be so energetic even though you're already so old, Ms. Chien."
Fangzheng stood up and looked at the detective Chien who was sitting in a reclining chair. He shook his head helplessly.
"…"
Chiken turned his head and looked at Fangzheng, Xiaolan, Conan, and Mikumi Kameda, who had been hiding at some point in time. He revealed a wry smile.
"How did you know about this place?"
"We were bored during the day, so we played a big adventure here. Then, I accidentally detected a strange electric wave flow here, so I opened it to have a look. I didn't expect to find a whole new world inside."
Fangzheng shrugged. He had planned to scan the place with his personal terminal during the day to see if he could find any clues, but he ended up finding such a secret room. Frankly speaking, this was a little out of Fangzheng's expectations.
But because this place was just a surveillance room and had nothing to do with the Udumbaru Lotus that Fangzheng was looking for, Fangzheng did not bother with it anymore.
Until the death of Zhu Shan.
Only then did Fangzheng calm down. That was obviously the place where the murderer was monitoring. Since he wanted to kill everyone, he had to find a place to monitor the movements of the others. So, he hid here with Lan and the others, waiting for the murderer to walk into the trap.
As Fangzheng said, there was no need to find evidence, just catch the murderer in the act ….
But Fangzheng did not expect that an old lady in her sixties like Chien Hitoshi could jump up and down so energetically, just like Monkey Sun …. This was not scientific at all.
Forget it, there was no need to talk about science in Ke Xue's world.
"Okay, Miss Chien Hitoshi, plead guilty."
Fangzheng stroked the little kitten in his arms while looking at the pale Chien Hitoshi in front of him. He was in a good mood.
The biggest reward of this trip was the little kitten.
She really is my little cutie!!
