As Sherlock Holmes said that, he brought a chair and stepped directly on it. After fiddling with the surveillance camera for a while, the camera was removed after a few seconds.

"Hey! James, what are you doing? You will be scolded by the boss if you dismantle the camera like this!"

Maori Kogoro hurriedly stopped him. After all, he was a special guest, and everyone had given him money, so basic justice still had to be maintained.

Sherlock Holmes paid no heed to Kogoro Mouri's blocking, looked at the camera, and quickly found a place to put the battery.

click!

With a crisp sound, Holmes opened the battery cover of the camera, and then showed the scene inside to Kogoro Mouri and Conan, who turned his attention here.

"Huh? There's no battery in it?" Kogoro Mori looked at the empty battery groove in surprise.

"Yes, and there is no power supply design where the camera is fixed. This camera is just a shelf."

"But... how did you know that?"

Maori Kogoro looked puzzled, he didn't see it at all, how did James know?

"Uncle James was just suspicious before, right?"

Conan suddenly answered: "After all, the boss clearly asked to accept the phone, but he told Uncle Mouri not to accept it. There are monitors everywhere in the hotel, but in fact there are no toilets and bathrooms, which means that the so-called Surveillance has blind spots.”

"However, the boss, knowing this, still did not propose to force everyone's mobile phones, and even allowed Uncle Maori to continue to hold mobile phones."

"That is to say, in fact, the boss may not want to see someone cheating, but it is not as important as we think."

"So, since he has such an attitude, why does he put so much effort into installing monitors and bugs throughout the hotel?"

"So either these monitors are just pretending to give the tester a certain psychological deterrent; or he's installing these monitors for other purposes."

"And no matter what the possibility is, Uncle James needs to remove the monitors to check... But now it seems that these monitors are really just gimmicks."

"Nice reasoning, absolutely correct."

Sherlock Holmes clapped his hands to encourage him. Conan's mind is very good, and his concentration and concentration are also good. It would be nice if he could come to him.

Now he is the only one in the Spider Detective Agency. As Sherlock Holmes without an assistant, he always feels that something is missing, but Watson has not become a heroic spirit, and no one has come down to help the Rainbow. It is really lonely.

"Oh! That's how it is... This boss is really funny."

Mouri Kogoro suddenly realized, this newcomer has two brushes, how can he know that the camera is just a decoration based on these few points, and he has some wisdom from Maori Kogoro, hum.

"Since I already know that this is just a pretense, it's an eyesore to look at anyway, so I simply dismantle it."

Holmes said lightly, and placed the camera in the corner of the room.

"It's getting late, I'm going to bed first, you two should go to bed earlier too. Conan, when Xiao Lan comes back from the toilet, you must also sleep for Lao Tzu, or I will reward you when I see you still writing this stuff. fist."

Shaking the empty wine bottle, Mouri Kogoro, who was now full of alcohol and sleepiness, yawned, then sternly warned Conan, and then fell directly onto the bed and fell asleep.

"Yeah! I'll do the problem for a while, and I'll go to sleep as soon as Sister Xiaolan comes back." Conan nodded.

"Since Mr. Maury has rested, I'll take my leave."

Sherlock Holmes left the room as he spoke. He just came here to see Conan and to visit the innkeeper Hiroyuki Kanaya.

After all, this person is also his fan. As a detective and idol, you can't watch him get killed.

"The time to kill should be after everyone fell asleep. Boss Jin Gu should still be alive now... Let's check it out to be safe."

Sherlock Holmes came to the door of Hiroyuki Kanaya's room and knocked gently on the door.

A moment later, the door opened, and the person who opened the door was Hiroyuki Jingu, who was still alive at this time.

"It's Mr. James, what's the matter?"

"Oh, that's it. Detective Maori asked me for help. What time is his speech? It's easier to prepare if you know the time."

"Ah! That's it. The Maori Detective's speech time is after the dinner party. At that time, I need to review the test paper. During this time, the Maori Detective can teach you some insights on detective reasoning."

"I see, I understand, so sorry to bother you!"

"It's okay, it's getting late, Mr. James should rest early."

Jin Gu Yuzhi responded with a smile, and then slowly closed the door.

"If I go to rest, I'm afraid something will happen to you."

Sherlock Holmes shook his head helplessly, and then began to think about his next actions.

"Including the boss's room, all rooms have only two entrances: the door and the window. In the plot, Conan has been making problems until four or five in the morning, and Mouri Kogoro and Molilan are also awake. If the murderer entered through the door It's impossible for the three of them to not notice anything in the room."

"That is to say, he could only sneak in from the window, and the killer's route should pass outside the hotel."

After simply deducing the murderer's route, Holmes got up and went outside the hotel to wait and see.

However, even as a Heroic Spirit, it was still cold outside the hotel in the middle of the night.

So....why is the hotel built beside a cliff and there is no guardrail on it.

Isn't this letting people go to murder?

Look at the sign not to approach the cliff ahead, and the bare ground behind the sign.

Probably to save money, Sherlock Holmes complained inwardly.

Chapter five hundred and fiftieth eight things exposed

One o'clock in the morning, outside the hotel.

Sherlock Holmes stared at a dark figure that suddenly appeared.

After waiting here for nearly two hours, his patience was about to wear off, and this guy finally came.

Quietly following the shadow, seeing him circled to the side of Jin Gu's boss's room, Sherlock Holmes stopped at the corner.

Looking there, he probed slightly, and saw the shadow gently open the window of Boss Jin Gu's room, and then got in.

The window security net is not installed, and the cliff edge is not installed with guardrails.

Completely unprepared, this boss really deserved to be assassinated.

Sherlock Holmes shook his head, knowing that if he didn't stop it now, tragedy would happen soon.

No longer worried about making a sound, he rushed straight to the window, his arms exerted force, and the whole person turned into the room.

Since being a Heroic Spirit is superior to humans in all aspects, nighttime is basically the same as daytime without any influence.

Therefore, as soon as Holmes entered the room, he locked the shadow.

The shadow's head seemed to move a bit, and he should have turned his head subconsciously when he heard the movement.

"who is it!?"

Sherlock Holmes didn't give him a chance to react further, he approached the shadow instantly, aimed at the position of the shadow's cervical vertebrae, and cut it with a neat hand knife!

"what----!!!"

"This... what's wrong?"

Jin Gu Yuzhi was awakened by the passive silence, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the light in his room lit up.

As soon as he turned his head, he found that the murderer's body fell to the ground in an instant, and he was so frightened that he immediately stood up and sat up.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jingu, for disturbing your rest, but after all, seeing a suspicious person sneaking into your room, I, as a detective, can't just sit back and watch."

Holmes Road by the window.

"Mr. James? So you're a detective."

Jin Gu Hiroyuki glanced at Sherlock Holmes and then at the murderer who had fallen to the ground. He finally came to his senses. He narrowed his eyes and found that the person who fell to the ground was Kento Toba, the guest he had invited yesterday.

"Could it be this guy who sneaked into my room?"

At this moment, there was a knock on the door from outside the room.

"Hey! Mr. Jingu! Mr. Jingu! How are you?"

"It's Mr. Mauri..."

Holmes heard the knocker and opened the door.

"Huh? James, what about you?"

Outside the door is Kogoro Mouri, and next to him is Heiji Hattori and Conan, a primary school student of death.

"You'll know when you come in and take a look." Holmes laughed.

The three people outside the door were stunned when they heard the words, and then entered the room.

"That scream just now..."

Conan's eyes turned to Kento Toba, who was lying on the ground. It seemed that it was this guy who mocked Uncle Mori yesterday. He came here in the middle of the night either to steal or to commit murder.

"It was sent by this guy. I couldn't sleep outside breathing fresh air, and then saw him sneak into Mr. Jin Gu's room, followed him with a knife and stunned him before he made trouble."

"Then why did he sneak into this room in the middle of the night?"

Mouri Kogoro was very puzzled. There was only a middle-aged fat uncle in this room, and there were no beautiful women and wine.

Could it be a robbery?

The innkeeper is indeed a rich profession, but the inn is remote and there are not many waiters, so it doesn't look rich.

"It may be to steal the Sherlock Holmes book, or it may be... to kill Mr. Jingu!"

Hattori Heiji frowned and said what he thought was the most likely answer.

If he remembers correctly, the people here are all Sherlock Holmes fans, and the prizes given by the boss for holding this round of quizzes are the most precious treasures in the hearts of Sherlock Holmes fans.

According to the research of the first edition of Scarlet, for such a treasure, it is very possible that this Sherlock Holmes fan would steal and **** it. If the theft is discovered by the owner, it will easily turn into a murder case.

"This... I shouldn't have any grudges with him? Why would he want to kill me?" Jin Gu Yuzhi was shocked when he heard the words, and he couldn't believe it.

"If you want to know the answer, just search his body and you'll know?"

Sherlock Holmes took out the gloves from his pocket, put them on, and began to search Kento Toba.

"Interesting! Look what I found?"

In the side pocket of Kento Toba's clothes, Holmes found a surprise.

A handkerchief and a white vial.

There seems to be some kind of liquid in the vial, but there is no sign on the vial, and it is temporarily unknown what liquid is inside.

Sherlock Holmes first unscrewed the cap of the bottle, put his head slightly close to the mouth of the bottle, and then fanned the mouth of the bottle with his hand.

His nose moved slightly, and he frowned suddenly.

Immediately, he closed the bottle cap and said lightly to everyone present: "It smells of bitter almonds, and it is highly poisonous like cyanide."

"What? He...he really wants to kill me!?"

Jin Gu Yuzhi's face changed completely! He didn't expect this man to be so vicious.

Sneaking into his room late at night, carrying a highly poisonous substance with him, what he wanted to do couldn't be more obvious!

"what happened?"

"Why are you all gathering here?"

"Eh? The one who fell to the ground was Mr. Toba, right?"

When the others heard the movement, they also came to Jinya Hiroyuki's room one after another to check the situation.

Conan explained the situation in a few words.

"No way? You said he stole the first edition of the [Scarlet Study] Collection Book, but I believe he had any reason to kill Mr. Jingu?"

Ayako Ogi was puzzled. As Kento Toba's girlfriend, she knew nothing about Kento Toba's character. Stealing was possible, but killing was going too far.

"He carries a highly poisonous substance with him. There is no doubt that he wants to kill Mr. Jin Gu. As for the motive, you can only ask him when he wakes up."

Rather than telling them the truth himself, let the murderer explain it himself.

Thinking of this, Holmes sighed, that his fans would do such a thing for a book.

"Uh……"

At this moment, Kento Toba, who had fainted, woke up.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw countless gazes focused on him, and he was so frightened that he was more than half awake instantly.

"What... what's going on..." His voice seemed to tremble.
