"No, about this, I didn't see it directly, but..."

Suzuki Sonoko looked at Hondo Eisuke with a serious expression and said, "My friend shouldn't lie."

The latter immediately nodded sincerely:

"That's right! Just now in the backyard, I... I saw that the window of the villa that was sealed with iron nails was staggered by a gap, and I accidentally met the devil's eyes..."

"Hey, hey! What are you doing!"

Yoji Kuramoto came over and grabbed Hondo Eisuke by the collar, "Are you daydreaming, kid?"

"I really saw it!"

Hondo Eisuke still affirmed his words, "Although the light was very dark at the time, I couldn't see what it was, but there is no doubt that it must have eyes!"

Dong, thing... Is this kid scolding me?

The blue veins on Yoji Kuramoto's forehead were slightly swollen and raised.

Before he could attack in the future, a calm voice with a bit of coldness suddenly came from his ears, instantly waking him up:

"I advise you not to continue to carry him, otherwise if you accidentally get injured later, it will be hard to explain to the police."

"Well…"

Yoji Kuramoto's breath was stagnant. Thinking of the previous conversation of several people, he let go of his palm weakly, subconsciously took a few steps back, looked at Eisuke Hondo with some doubts in his eyes, and said:

"You... are you Kyogoku-san?"

"Huh?" Hondo Eisuke looked bewildered.

"Why would you ask such a question?" Suzuki Sonoko looked over suspiciously, "How could he be Ah Zhen!"

"But, he just now..."

Yoji Kuramoto looked at Ye Gengichi and Hondo Eisuke respectively, and didn't know how to explain it for a while.

You can't say that you are bullying and afraid of being tough, and you are worried about being beaten, right?

In the end, it was Conan who reacted the fastest. While collecting clues around the murder scene, he didn't miss the quarrel here. He walked over and explained:

"You misunderstood. Brother Gengyi just meant that brother Yingyou's luck is already very bad. If you keep grabbing his collar, you might hurt him."

"So this is ah…"

Kuramoto Yoji was a little speechless.

Looking at the group of guests who came to borrow the phone out of nowhere, I felt a little more depressed and heavy. After a moment of silence, I apologized:

"I'm sorry, I was a little emotional just now. Although this villa is very cheap and we know the story of the demon, after all, it was the few of us who managed to raise money to buy it. Besides, Lunzi is already dead. So please stop talking about seeing demons!"

"But I really..."

"Okay, student Yingyou!" Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Sonoko Suzuki hurried over to smooth things over, "Stop talking."

"No! If what he said is true, maybe there is really something wrong with this villa..."

On the side, the expression of the woman with the ponytail suddenly became extremely scary, and she said in a deep voice:

"Because this room...is the room where the previous owner, the wife of the wealthy brother, hanged herself!"

Hearing this, Mao Lilan, Suzuki Sonoko, and Hondo Eisuke opened their mouths in a semicircle, as if after a rehearsal, they all exclaimed shortly:

"Eh?! Is this true!"

The ponytail woman nodded slightly:

"right."

She took a deep breath, looked up at the rope hanging from the chandelier, and continued:

"And, even the hanging position is exactly the same..."

"It's a matter of course," Ye Gengyi continued in a calm tone, "This is the only chandelier in the entire room that can meet the conditions for hanging ropes."

"No, Brother Geng."

Mao Lilan said with a trembling voice: "Don't you think it's weird, not to mention Yingyou saw that..."

She didn't continue to speak, but looked around the room fearfully.

"A demon, isn't it? If there is such a creature, I really want to see it."

As soon as Ye Geng walked to the bookcase near the left wall, he took out the stack of books on the bottom row near the center of the bookshelf, and as expected, he revealed a wooden board with the same style as the bookshelf, but with an extra groove.

It was a secret door.

Seeing this scene, Yoji Kuramoto's face changed directly.

Others came over curiously.

Ye Geng reached out to pull the doorknob again, but the secret door was not locked, and it was opened with a slight 'crash' sound.

"This..." Conan couldn't help being depressed when he saw this, but he quickly returned to the case: "Brother Gengyi, the murderer is still hiding inside, right?"

No, the real culprit is behind us. I saw it very clearly in the backyard just now, but I'm not going to expose him until I'm not sure if there is a 'mediator'.

Ye Geng glanced back at the few people, "I'll go in, you stay outside, it's best not to leave the villa until the police arrive."

"Well...then brother one, you pay attention to safety."

Conan responded and reminded:

"Even if the murderer is not inside, maybe there will be a mechanism..."

"knew."

Ye Geng turned his head to look at the entrance of the dark passage, blinked his eyes a few times, and his pupils had adjusted to the size adapted to the darkness.

Bend down, lower your body, and step in.

The slightly icy air rushed towards the face, and at the same time, there was a musty smell of wood wafting inside.

Xiaobai, check the air quality and toxic and harmful substances...

Ye Geng held his breath, controlled some of the nano-robots to float out of his body, and condensed into a mask. At the same time, he condensed a layer of filter in his respiratory tract to ensure that problems could be quickly resolved in the first place.

【Sir, the test has been completed. The rancid smell in the air is mold spores and sulfur dioxide produced by the oxidative decomposition of wood and ore. With your physical fitness, inhaling a small amount will not cause adverse effects. 】

Oh, I see…

Walking in this dark passageway wide enough for only one person, Ye Gengyi kept touching the rough wall with his left hand, and with his eyes that could see in the faint light, he scanned the surroundings to guard against possible traps.

However, the fact is that this narrow secret passage does not have that kind of thing installed.

After walking a few steps, he saw a half window at the end of one side of the wall, and faint light was continuously shining in through the gap in the window frame.

Ye Geng stretched out his hand to open it, and as expected, what he could see in his sight happened to be the flower garden in the backyard of the villa.

"Hmm... It seems that not only the murder scene, but also the bird's nest box can be seen from this angle..."

His expression was a little weird, looking at the green leaf, another possibility came to his mind.

If that code was left to the rich man's wife by someone else, then the previous story about the devil would make sense.

Still don't understand what they're thinking...

Ye Gengyi wasn't interested in the private lives of the wealthy brothers, but simply felt that, obviously living in a villa, there were so many opportunities to pass on information, why did he have to spend his energy on the opposite side? Make a bird's nest in a tree.

Too lazy to think about this issue, Ye Geng turned around and walked to the other side, the stairs leading to the top, and walked up.

The road is quite straight, and the height is about the same as the floor.

Although it has been very slow, but because the distance is too short.

Even with his eyes closed, Ye Gengyi could figure out that the end of the passage was definitely the room directly above the murder scene on the third floor of the villa.

"It's really nothing new..."

Looking at the secret door of the same style on the opposite wall, a certain professor surnamed Ye opened it with a little disappointment.

The method of committing the crime is too rough, and I don't know what to think about it, but it seems that it is not a long-planned murder.

Even if we take a step back and say ~lightnovelpub.net~ the murderer really has this idea, there is absolutely no need to choose to do it when there are guests coming to the door.

After all, in this case, the best outcome for the murderer is that the deceased is identified as a suicide. As for reporting to the police and investigating afterwards, because he has no way of foreseeing how much the criminal police who came here believed in ghosts and gods, so secretly Taoism and windows that can be opened, this kind of crime method that can be figured out after careful consideration, it is safer to conceal it as much as possible.

As Ye Geng thought about it, the nano-robots covering his face also lifted their mimicry, and after a while of wriggling, they slowly penetrated into the skin.

He just leaned out half of his body and walked out of the hidden door that was obviously installed on the inside of the wardrobe.

In front of him, a shining knife stabbed at him...
