Conan’s Almighty Extraction - Chapter 352
Near the small pavilion door, there is an open hanging picture, and next to it is a calligraphy case for writing calligraphy.
There are pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the book case, and several lines of text are written on the paper. However, it is obvious that it has not been written according to the above content.
“This is…” Baiyan Zhenyu found some small gray particles of different sizes scattered on the paper. After squatting down and looking carefully, he muttered, “it seems to be sawdust.”
“There are also on the tatami… By the way, it fell from the beam of the hanging rope. The friction between the hanging rope and the beam seems a little abnormal.”
Conan also found sawdust. After turning around the book case, he seemed to think of something and looked up at the beam hanging from master qingyemu.
However, Conan was too short to see the beam clearly. He had to ask Bai Yan Zhenyu for help and said, “brother Zhenyu, please lift me up.”
“OK.”
Baiyan Zhenyu lifted Conan up. He leaned over to the beam and said clearly, “sure enough, there are traces of friction in addition to the hanging rope. It was made recently.”
Baiyan Zhenyu put Conan down and asked in a low voice, “did you think of anything?”
Conan nodded and said enigmatically, “well, there are probably some conjectures, but more clues are needed to judge.”
At this time, police officer Henggou and Maori Kogoro also surveyed the scene, took the people back to the second floor of the main house and began to question and investigate housekeeper Huaqi.
After listening to the legend of the monster told by housekeeper Huaqi, officer Henggou scratched his head and said in silence, “what? He was killed by the legendary monster? I say, everybody, do you think I, the policeman, will believe this statement?”
“As like as two peas!” “the flower is so like this!” said the flower master, who clenched his fists and firmly believed in his face. “The bloodstains beside the tea room and the hangup of the master are all the same as those described in the legend.”
Miss Sancun showed a touch of fear on her face and immediately said, “even if there are no demons here, the master’s death method is exactly the same as the legend. Who will believe that he was not killed by demons.”
Yancang shouxiong lowered his head and said with a depressed look: “I knew that I shouldn’t have built this tea ceremony room. After it was completed, my wife died of heart disease. Now even the master can’t escape its curse. I believe it must be the result of evil things.”
Officer Henggou scratched his head and said with a headache, “how can this happen…”
“I think it’s because they are too scared psychologically, but this is a suicide case and should not be wrong.” after investigation, Mao xiaowulang insisted on his previous reasoning.
Officer Henggou nodded and continued to ask, “after 4:00 p.m., you all gathered here. From this balcony, you found that the tea ceremony master Aoye liangzang was hanged in the tea ceremony room. Am I right?”
Baiyan Zhenyu recalled the situation at that time and replied, “yes, the lake just turned red. According to the lake water change rules told by Mr. Liangyi, it should be four o’clock.”
Maori xiaowulang turned to look at Aoye Liangyi and asked for confirmation: “I remember that Mr. Liangyi just looked at his watch and determined the time at that time, didn’t he?”
Qingyemu nodded and confirmed: “yes, it was just after four o’clock, and I looked at the tea ceremony room and didn’t find my father hanging there.”
Housekeeper hanazaki looked at Miss Kimura with hostile eyes and added: “soon, Miss Kimura came back, and then the master had an accident.”
“Well, I’m out, but the master’s business has nothing to do with me.” miss Sancun gently shook the folding fan and admitted this, but also said she was innocent.
Police officer Henggou recorded the people’s confessions. It was difficult to find any useful clues, so he had to continue to ask, “where were you before this?”
Yukio Yancang pointed to his bathrobe and replied, “I was taking a bath. I stayed in the bathhouse for about 30 minutes.”
Miss Sancun lifted her hair in front of her forehead, her eyes twinkled slightly, and reluctantly replied, “I’ve been out for a while because I have something private.”
“Oh?” officer Henggou, after listening, looked down on miss Sancun’s unnatural face and asked suspiciously, “so, where have you been?”
“Mr. policeman, it’s my own private business. I don’t need to answer it.” miss Sancun snorted, turned her head arrogantly and refused to answer the question.
“You…”
Although officer Henggou was annoyed at miss Sancun’s lack of cooperation, he couldn’t force the other party to answer, so he had to transfer the question target and asked housekeeper Huaqi, “housekeeper Huaqi, but where are you?”
Housekeeper hanazaki pointed to the direction of the kitchen and replied, “because the master wants to invite some guests to dinner today, I’ll prepare dinner in the kitchen over there.”
Officer Henggou nodded and turned to look at Aoye Liangyi, waiting for the other party’s answer.
Aonomaki slightly lowered his head and replied, “at that time, I had been going in and out of the living room.”
Officer Henggou remembered the rigid relationship between him and master qingyemu and asked, “by the way, I just heard that your most precious fishing rod was burned by the master. Is it right? What happened between you?”
Aonomaki looked at Yukio Yancang and miss Sancun apologetically and truthfully replied, “to be honest, my father asked me to attend the tea party tonight. He wanted me to take the opportunity to announce that I would succeed the next master.”
“Let you succeed? How is that possible?!”
“Yes, you know nothing about the tea ceremony!”
Yacang shouxiong and miss Sancun changed their faces when they heard the speech, because both of them, as disciples of the master, thought that the next master would be born in them. Unexpectedly, the master would choose Qingye Muliang, who was not interested in the tea ceremony, to inherit the title of the master at the last moment.
“Mr. Liangyi, have you agreed to his request?” officer Henggou was not interested in who inherited the title of master, but the matter was related to the case.
Qingye Mu Liang shook his head and replied, “how can I promise? I have no interest in the tea ceremony. Of course, I directly refused him.”
After listening to Aoye’s answer, yacang shouxiong and miss Sancun were obviously relieved and excluded a strong contender for the title of master.
