Detectives of Detective World - Chapter 1344

The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: []https://The fastest update! No ads!

It is very demanding on time, and can’t even stand the error of the clock being one second behind.

Judging from her behavior of blaming Mori Kogoro for being two minutes late just now, the other party’s harshness on time has reached the point where it has been integrated into daily life.

Dealing with each other, I’m afraid it will be very tiring.

With such a character, it is obvious that the prisoner would be so ridiculed in the notice letter.

“Forget it, ma’am.”

At this moment, a middle-aged man with a big beard and a pipe, and a rough face, and a woman with yellow hair came to the gate of the mansion under umbrellas.

The other party seemed to have heard Hoshina Rukako’s words, and walked over while putting away the umbrella while smoothing things out with a smile: “It’s like everyone inevitably needs to rest, and letting the clock take a breath once in a while can also help people relax.

If so, what’s wrong with it? ”

“Ah, does the clock in your mouth have life, so there is no need to rest like a human?” The middle-aged lady holding a red umbrella asked with a smile.

“No, clocks are the same as people!”

At this moment, an old man in a raincoat came up in the rain. The man walked up the stairs with a cane and said, “Just like a person needs a physical examination every once in a while to confirm his health. It’s rusty and malfunctioning.

Don’t forget that clocks continue to work when people are sleeping.

While recording the time, the gears are constantly worn out, and the mainspring will gradually fail, right? ”

Tang Ze squinted his eyes as he watched the three of them appear one after another. He couldn’t help but be careless. After all, Mori Kogoro and Conan had come, which meant that a homicide was bound to happen in this mansion today.

That is to say, the notice letter that had been silent for the past two years may happen tonight, and the victim is naturally the Rukako Hoshina next to her.

The three people in front of him were naturally listed as the focus of Tang Ze’s attention.

Although there must be a lot of guests coming back from the banquet today, after all, these three arrived one after another with Mori Kogoro, and the number of people is sensitive to the “classic three-choose one” configuration, so it is natural to pay attention.

But just when he was about to ask about the basic information of the three of them, Mori Kogoro looked at Hoshina Rukako and asked with a smile, “Who are these three?”

“They are Mr. Seigo Asabe, who designed this mansion, and Ms. Zhou Fangzhiqiu, who was in charge of the interior decoration.”

Hoshina Rukako looked at the last man who came with a smile and said with a smile: “As for the last one, it is Mr. Gu Tan who made the big clock of this mansion.

The three of them are also guests at the birthday party tonight. ”

“I just came to check on the situation of the big clock. As for your birthday party, I just participated in it by the way.”

Unexpectedly, upon hearing Ruhuako Hoshina’s words, the old man Gu Tanlunsaku said unceremoniously: “I’m sorry to give way, I’m about to fall in.”

Gu Tan leaned on a cane and walked inside with a tool bag in the other hand: “I promised to take care of that big clock for the rest of my life. This is an agreement between me and my old friend.”

“Well, who is the old friend?” Conan asked curiously, relying on the convenience at his side.

“It’s the watchmaker we hired before. He is basically in charge of all the clocks in this mansion.”

Hoshina Rukako looked at Zhou Fang Zhiqiu with her hands in her arms and said, “I remember he is your brother, right?”

“That’s right, thanks to my brother’s kind words, I have the opportunity to take over the decoration work of this mansion.”

After Zhou Fang Zhiqiu replied with a smile, he seemed to remember something and walked towards the other party quickly, picked up the camera hanging on his chest and said with a smile, “I found a very beautiful carpet, would you like to see a sample?”

“Let’s wait and see.” Hoshina Rukako said with a smile while crossing her arms.

“Okay.” Zhou Fang Zhiqiu nodded obsequiously.

“Okay, everyone, let’s go inside, it’s not convenient to talk at the door.” Hoshina Rukako stretched out her hand and made a gesture of invitation: ”

Come in and talk. ”

“Then everyone, please leave the umbrella to me for safekeeping.” The butler at the side stretched out his hands to signal everyone to hand over the umbrella to him.

Mori Kogoro, Karazawa and others handed umbrellas to each other one after another, but Qingbian Dingwu said with a smile: “I don’t need mine, this is a folding umbrella.”

“Okay.” Hearing Qing Bian’s words, the butler didn’t insist.

After everyone called for umbrellas, they followed Hoshina Rukako and walked towards the interior of the mansion.

Walking towards the living room, Mori Kogoro and the others immediately approached Tang Ze and the others.

“I didn’t expect to meet you here.” Mori Kogoro greeted Tang Ze with a smile.

“The other party has some relationship with Ayako, because of the notice letter, I hope I can participate to help solve the problem.”

Tang Ze explained with a smile: “It’s Detective Maori, this time he is attending the banquet as a bodyguard.”

“Well, of course.”

Mori Kogoro straightened his tie and said proudly, “With me as the bodyguard, I will be safe this time.

As long as the murderer dares to come, I will directly bring him to justice! ”

“I believe you are a big-headed ghost!” Tang Ze slandered inwardly when he heard Kogoro Mori’s confident expression.

You must know that in the “Ke Xue’s Law”, the mortality rate of Mori Kogoro as a bodyguard is basically about 99%, and only a very few lucky ones can barely escape the catastrophe.

So asking Mori Kogoro to be his bodyguard for the sake of his reputation is really adding a “death buff” to himself.

On the surface, Tang Ze just smiled and said something perfunctory,

On the other side, Xiaolan and Ayako also got together, and the conversation between the two was obviously much easier.

And soon as everyone entered the living room, the two were attracted by the various clocks and clocks placed in the spacious living room.

There are all kinds of clocks and clocks here, some extravagant and some low-key, there are wall clocks hanging on the wall, and there are many exquisite table clocks.

“Madam, did you buy these?” Looking at all kinds of clocks and watches, Xiaolan couldn’t help but be pleasantly surprised.

After all, such an environment is indeed too rare, like a museum, giving people a feeling of dizzying, no wonder Xiaolan and the others are so surprised.

“Yeah, these are all bought by me.”

Hoshina Rukako walked slowly: “My husband passed away due to illness last year.

He kept complaining to me during his lifetime, saying that he seemed to be married to a clock.

However, it is an indisputable fact that I am very fascinated by clocks. ”

Hoshina Rukako walked up to the wall covered with clocks and clocks, and unfolded the pocket watch in her hand as well: “I heard the wonderful sound of ticking, and the melodious sound of the bell when the minute hand reached the top…”

“clatter!”

Hoshina Rukako closed the pocket watch in her hand, and the next moment the minute hand came above the number “3”.

When the hour hand reached three o’clock, all the bells in the room rang at the same time the next moment.

The melodious ringing of a hundred bells reverberated throughout the mansion, and it also brought a little shock to everyone who came to this mansion for the first time.

“The feeling of a hundred bells ringing like this is really spectacular.” Mori Kogoro exclaimed.

“It’s amazing! It’s so lively!” Xiaolan looked at the clock in front of her without any concealment and praised, “It’s like being in an amusement park!”

But this kind of praise did not attract Hoshina Rukako’s happy politeness. On the contrary, she looked at the clock in front of her with an incomparably gloomy expression: “Ome…”

“yes!”

Hearing Hoshina Rukako’s shout, the butler was shocked instantly, and Hoshina Ruhuako yelled angrily as if changing his face: “Why is there a clock that is 0.5 seconds slower! What’s going on!”

“Yes!” The butler quickly came to Hoshina Rukako and bowed to apologize: “I’m really sorry, I’ll call back right away!”

“You’d better keep it in my mind!” The angry Hoshina Rukako said mercilessly in front of everyone.

“If all the clocks don’t go off at the same time on my birthday at 6:00 p.m., you can just get out!”

“Yes! I obey!” the butler humbly bowed his head and answered.

But this reprimand without any hesitation about the occasion directly chilled the originally good atmosphere of praise, and even Xiaolan’s stunned Ruhuako Hoshike was a little at a loss.

After all, the way the other party lost his temper suddenly before was really scary.

Seemingly realizing that her behavior was a little disrespectful in front of the guests, Hoshina Rukako smiled and wanted Zhou Fangzhiqiu to ease the atmosphere and said, “As for the adjustment of the clock, your brother is really the best.”

“Eh?” Hearing Hoshina Rukako’s words, Zhou Fang Zhiqiu looked a little surprised.

“I’ve actually hired three watchmakers since he passed away, and still one or two clocks go slow every week.”

Hoshina Rukako said half sighing and half explaining, as if explaining to everyone why she was so angry just now.

“Among the entire mansion, only the big clock is an exception. It has rarely slowed down in the past ten years or so.”

Hoshina Rukako smiled and said, “But it’s also because the master clock maker personally comes to adjust the clock every year, so it’s no wonder.

If you are interested, how about going to the inside of the clock tower with me? ”

Perhaps feeling that the atmosphere was a bit too stiff, Hoshina Rukako quickly changed the topic to mediate the atmosphere.

And everyone was not used to the stiff atmosphere just now, and they all echoed and agreed.

Under the leadership of Hoshina Rukako, everyone came to the inside of the clock tower.

In fact, they had already seen the big clock when they came to this mansion to park their cars. After all, the huge clock stood tall beside the mansion, and those who saw it naturally wanted to take a look at it unconsciously.

Going upstairs in the dark, Hoshina Rukako turned on the lights on the wall, and the scene inside the bell tower was also displayed in front of everyone.

“Wow, that’s amazing!” Xiaolan couldn’t help sighing as she looked at the huge combined gears in front of her through the guardrail.

“Indeed, it’s also the first time I’ve seen it.” Ayako stood beside Xiaolan and echoed, “I didn’t expect the inside of the huge clock tower to look like this.”

“Yeah, this is really shocking.” Mori Kogoro said looking at the huge rotating gears.

Xiaolan, who was on the side, looked at the rotating gears, and then walked into the room, and saw that the gears were connected to a horizontal iron pillar leading to the wall.

Presumably the pointer is outside the wall.

And beside the iron pillar, there is a small door.

“What’s behind this door?” Xiaolan stretched out her hand curiously and opened the square door, “Wow, Miss Ayako, look quickly, this is the clock face of this big clock, facing the backyard.”

“This is really good.” After Tang Ze and Conan got together, they stood on a high place and looked at the distant scenery, and they couldn’t help admiring.

But the scenery in the distance only attracted the attention for a while, and Tang Ze and Conan soon focused their attention on the grass in the backyard.

In the continuous heavy rain, Gu Tan Lunzuo, who had met once before, was standing in front of a large well sealed by iron nets, clasping his hands together to pay homage to something.

“Isn’t that Mr. Gu Tan that I saw before?”

Conan looked at Gutan below and asked curiously, “Why did he worship at that well?”

“Because my brother, he died in there.”

Hearing Conan’s words, Zhou Fangzhiqiu went to the window and looked at the well below and said, “My brother was a watchmaker for the Baoke family, but he was blown down by the strong wind when he was repairing the number dial of the big clock. ”

“Actually, this mansion had that well before it was remodeled.”

Hoshina Rukako said, “Because it’s too dangerous, and there have been accidents before, so I plan to wait until next week to find someone to seal the well.”

“Then, I’ll go down and pay homage to him later.” Qingbian Dingwu said and walked to the window

Then, looking down the yard: “After all, Zhou Fang who passed away was also my childhood playmate.”

“Then please do me a favor too.”

Zhou Fangzhiqiu, who is the younger sister, heard Qingbian Dingwu’s words, but said something about being ruthless, turned around and left.

“Aren’t you going to worship your brother yourself?” Mori Kogoro at the side heard Zhou Fang Zhiqiu’s words ~www.mtlnovel.com~ couldn’t help but looked at the back of the other party and asked: “After all, you are his sister, right? ”

“Actually, I went to my brother’s tomb this morning.” Zhou Fang Zhiqiu turned to look at the crowd and said, “After all, today is my brother’s death day.”

“It’s the anniversary of death…” Kogoro Mori said after hearing the words, “That means, the accident happened on the day of my wife’s birthday…”

“Yes.” Zhou Fang Zhiqiu nodded.

“For more details, please come to my room and talk about it.”

Hoshina Rukako didn’t seem to want to mention it in front of everyone, she smiled and looked at Tang Ze and Ayako: “You two are also together? I also want to ask two famous detectives to help me find out the source of the threatening letter. Find out the identity of the sender.”

Hoshina Rukako looked a little fierce, obviously very annoyed at the prisoner who had given her threatening letters for three consecutive years.

Tang Ze and the others were naturally noncommittal about this. After they went down the bell tower together, they followed each other to each other’s room to learn more about the situation from each other.
