Waited for less than a quarter of an hour.

After a clicking sound of the latch, the door of the room was slightly staggered by a gap, and then a thin, white-skinned woman entered.

She was wearing a dark purple dress and a pair of high heels. She was estimated to be about 1.65 meters tall. She appeared to be in her twenties, with a pair of ice blue eyes under a golden shawl and curly hair.

Obviously, this outfit is not suitable for mountain climbing.

Ye Gengyi made three speculations based on the information he had.

First, this woman lives in this villa, whether it is the owner or the guest is unknown for the time being;

Second, she came by car;

Third, she also went up the mountain on foot, but she changed her clothes and shoes after arriving here.

Of course, no matter what it is, at least it should be easier to communicate with the other party than the old housekeeper...

Just as Ye Gengyi and Hei Yu Kaidou were sizing up each other, the woman also cast a scrutinizing gaze on the two, and then her eyes lit up, and she covered her mouth and said softly:

"so hot…"

"Ma'am, thank you for the compliment, it's an honor..."

Kaito Kuroba stood up from the sofa and bowed very gentlemanly: "Excuse me, are you the owner of this villa?"

"No, I am not."

The woman shook her head, walked to the sofa and said in a low voice, "So...you were also invited to investigate the haunting of this villa, right?"

"Ghost?" Hei Yu was taken aback.

"Huh?"

The woman blinked her bright eyes, "Could it be that I misunderstood?"

"We came to this villa to visit at the request of a friend, because our friend is a very careless person, so... can you tell us about the ghost in detail?" Ye Ask more.

"That's it, okay, but I don't know too well..."

The woman nodded and replied: "I heard that this villa was originally a villa named Sanshui... Sanshui..."

"Misui Kichiemon?" Kuroba Kaito asked.

"That's right, that's what it's called!"

The woman went on to say:

"Three years ago, after a rich man bought this land, he expanded this villa based on the original old mansion. As a result, since then... various strange things often happen here, and the most talked about is that there are Ghosts haunt us all the time."

"Miss, you just said 'you too', so you are the detective who came to investigate the 'ghost incident'?" Kaito Kuroba asked.

"Detective? No...I'm a fortune teller."

The woman took out a pocket watch from her pocket and shook it twice, "You can call me by my Japanese name—Urashima Motoka, what about you? How do you call it?"

"Ye Gengyi."

"Shinichi Kudo."

"Kudo Shinichi, um...is this name familiar?" Urashima Motoka recalled.

It's too bad, maybe you won't meet someone you know?

A flash of surprise flashed in Kuroba Kaito's eyes, and he said calmly on the surface: "I'm a high school student detective, so I'm pretty famous..."

It was Urashima Motoka's answer that made him breathe a sigh of relief: "A high school student detective? Ah... sorry, it seems that I remembered it wrong, because I don't pay much attention to this aspect."

"It doesn't matter."

Kuroba Kaito waved his hand indifferently, and asked instead: "Miss Urashima, do you know any other details about this villa? For example, who was the rich man who bought this villa?"

"I do not know…"

Urashima Motoka shook her head: "But looking at these weird mirrors, he must be a very strange person."

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door... from the other side of the door.

The sound was incoherent but very rhythmic, with a pause every three times, and it didn't stop for more than ten seconds.

It feels like if the people inside don't answer, the people outside will keep knocking like this...

"Who is it?"

Kuroba Kaito was puzzled, and walked towards the door vigilantly.

weird... so weird...

As a result, he hadn't gone a few steps yet.

The knocking stopped abruptly.

Immediately, a slender figure in a black dress walked in.

It was a woman in her sixties with neutral short hair. She did not apply any makeup on her face, so wrinkles and age spots could be clearly seen.

She politely nodded to the three people in the room:

"Sorry for the interruption. Lunch is ready, would you like to have it now?"

"Well, after climbing the mountain for several hours, I'm almost starving."

Kuroba Kaito rubbed his stomach exaggeratedly, and continued to walk out of the room, so as to meet the owner of the villa for a while.

However, this old woman, who should be the housekeeper, was already prepared.

After turning around and opening the door, a dining cart was pushed in.

Kuroba Kaito: "..."

"What does it mean?"

Ye Geng frowned, "Isn't the person who sent the invitation letter planning to meet us?"

"Sorry, sir, I don't know about the invitation letter. If you are asking the master...the master is not in the villa at the moment."

The housekeeper explained: "Since the supernatural incident happened three years ago, the master has handed over the management of this villa to me and Mr. Musashi, and ordered that as long as guests come to visit, they will be provided with board and lodging."

"oh?"

After Ye Gengyi heard the words, he asked, "Then, before us, did anyone come to visit?"

"some…"

The housekeeper put the plate on the table and said, "Every once in a while, guests will come to the door."

"What about them? Are they having lunch too?" Ye Gengyi asked.

"No, they have all left," the housekeeper shook her head, "Currently, there are only three of you in the entire villa."

"What? They all left?" Kaito Kuroba was surprised.

"Yes, we are only responsible for entertaining guests. If you want to leave, you don't need to say hello to us."

The housekeeper said:

"In addition, you can visit other areas in the villa except the locked room before 9 pm. If you think the food is not delicious, you can use the items and ingredients in the kitchen at will. However, only One thing to pay attention to is that these mirrors placed in the villa, I hope that the guests will not touch them at will. The host has specifically explained that these mirrors must be kept clean, please be considerate of the guests, otherwise if they get stains, Musashi and I It will be a hassle to clean up, sir."

"Oh, okay, we got it." Kaito Kuroba nodded.

The housekeeper smiled warmly, left the room with a sentence of 'Just put the plate on the table after the meal, they will clean it up later' and left the room.

With the door closed.

A cunning flashed in Kuroba Kaito's eyes, he turned around and came to those mirrors, and moved them one by one without the slightest hesitation, his concentration was several times more serious than before.

"Eh???"

Urashima Motoka opened his mouth in surprise when he saw this scene, "You...you are..."

"The more you are not allowed, the more you want to know, this is..."

Kuroba Kaito said without turning his head, "Detective."

Yes, detectives and thieves are, to some degree, the same thing.

Ye Geng slandered, came to the door and said, "Kudou-san, let's go to another room."

"coming."

Kaito Kuroba stopped rummaging, ignored Urashima Motoka, and trotted after him.

The villa is huge and the corridors are long.

The housekeeper who delivered the food before had gone nowhere.

Ye Gengyi chose a direction at random.

After dozens of seconds, he stood in front of a door.

There is only one door handle on the door, there is no lock cylinder, and it can be opened with a light turn.

As far as the eye can see, this is a spacious bedroom.

Except for the side of the door, the three walls without windows are covered with mirrors.

After a rough estimate, there are 100 neatly.

"Isn't this too exaggerated?"

Kaito Kuroba walked to the room near the bed, and looked around for a while: "Even if the owner is narcissistic...will he feel uncomfortable seeing so many mirrors every day?"

"It was wiped very clean." Ye Gengyi said.

"Yeah~lightnovelpub.net~ That old woman really worked hard."

Kuroba Kaito walked to a position close to the corner.

That is, in front of the largest and most eye-catching full-length mirror in the room.

The long mirror body is firmly embedded in a wooden frame engraved with beautiful patterns, slightly tilted to reflect every mirror in the room, as well as Kudo Shinichi's whole body.

hiss…

Stare at the mirror for seven or eight seconds.

A strange feeling came to Kuroba Kaito's heart.

"Don't think about it." Ye Gengyi's calm voice broke the dull atmosphere in an instant.

"Phew... it feels so depressing."

Kuroba Kaito let out a long breath and said, "I almost forgot how to breathe just now."
