Chapter 228: The weirdo outside the window


   Saturday, August 24, Suzuki's villa in the suburb of Mihuacho.
   The suspension bridge was cut off and fell into the valley. The weather was bad and the helicopter could not get through. Mei Daizi and Yamazaki decided to live. Everyone in the living room reported their room numbers. Seeing that there were two remaining, Mei Daizi chose room 207, where she was watching TV just now. She and Yamazaki's things are also there.
   The room is confirmed. Hiroki Kakutani lives at No. 201, Lan and Conan live at No. 203, Ikeda Chikako lives at No. 205, and Mei Daizi lives at No. 207. The two who live at their opposite doors are Takahashi Ryoichi on No. 202, Ota Masaru on No. 204, Ayako Suzuki and Sonoko on No. 206, and Yamazaki on No. 208.
   After sitting for a while, Chikako Ikeda said that she was tired and went upstairs to the room. Ayako Suzuki followed.
Ryoichi Takahashi went up to repair the roof again, Ota, Hiroki Kakutani, Sonoko, Midaiko, Ran, and Conan played cards, Yamazaki went to the kitchen to continue cleaning up the corbel, and after a while, Suzuki Ayako also went. I went to the kitchen, and brought some tea for the card players, and then added it.
   At 4:30, Mei Daizi went upstairs and went back to her room to watch TV. Soon after, Ayako Suzuki and Ran went to the kitchen to prepare dinner, and Conan followed. The garden went upstairs to look for Mei Daiko, and Ota and Hiroki Kakutani went back to their rooms.
   Conan walked a few steps, and suddenly asked, "Sister Ayako, what happened to Sister Ayako?"
After stopping, Ayako Suzuki said nostalgicly: "Atsuko is also a member of our film agency, but one day she suddenly hanged herself. It has been a year and a half. This classmate meeting should have been held a long time ago, so I played Call them." Then he looked at the room next to it that had become a utility room, and said sadly, "It turns out that everyone's feelings are very good. Now it looks like this, really..."
   "Conan." Lan said unhappily.
   "I'm sorry." Conan said to Ayako Suzuki immediately.
   "It's okay." Wiping the corner of her eye, Ayako Suzuki smiled.
In the kitchen, Yamazaki saw Conan and immediately smiled and said, "You are here just right. Come with me." Then he took him outside without waiting for Conan's approval, where a fire was set up on the side of the villa leeward. The beef leg is roasting on the fire, and there is a pile of pine branches on the ground.
   Yamazaki smiled and said, "I entrust you with a difficult task."
   "It's too difficult, I can't do it." Conan said immediately.
   "Or you go find pine branches," Yamazaki smiled, "I'll add firewood."
   "I'll cook here," Conan said, "First declare, I don't care about the fire. If you don't cook well, don't come to me."
   "It's too early to talk about baking." Yamazaki smiled, rubbing Conan's head and left.
   gave Yamazaki a pair of eyes, and Conan said helplessly: "Really, it's a hot day, it's hot here." Then he looked up at the sky and sighed, "Why isn't it raining yet."
   At 6:30, supper is on the table. The main course is fried chicken legs, grilled whole fish, steamed custard and tempura. And Meidaizi's dinner, roast beef hind legs. Conan's thoughts came true, but the heavy rain didn't come until the beef legs were roasted after six o'clock.
  Except for Chikako Ikeda and Midaiko, everyone else is already in the living room. Looking at their absence, Yuanzi and Lan have already gone upstairs to invite them.
   Ayako Suzuki smiled at Takahashi Ryoichi who was checking by the second-floor window in the living room: "Takahashi, the roof is ready?"
   "There is still no water leak, it is probably repaired." Takahashi smiled.
   "Then you come down quickly." Ota said.
   "I'm coming right away." Takahashi smiled, and then shouted outside the window, "Who?"
   Hiroki Kakutani, holding a camcorder, asked, "What's the matter?"
   Takahashi Ryoichi said with some fear: "Someone seems to be near the window below."
   Several people in the living room immediately looked out of the window on the first floor, and saw a man covered in black robe and bandaged on his head, holding Chikako Ikeda quickly passing under the window.
   Ota Katsushika, Kakutani Hiroki and Suzuki Ayako exclaimed: "Chikako!"
   At this time, Yuanzi appeared with Lan and Mei Daizi on the stairs on the second floor. She said, "Sister Zhi Jiazi is not in the room."
Conan immediately stepped forward and pushed open the window on the first floor of the living room, jumped out, looked around, and said, "Damn it, it's too dark, I don't know where to go." Then he just found a direction and chased it out. .
Seeing Takaota and Hiroki Kakutani also jumped out of the window, they also called out Takahashi Ryoichi. Before leaving, they asked them to lock the doors and windows. Mei Daizi asked, "What happened, brother, do you want me to help?" "
   "Mei Daizi, you can help to eat dinner first," Yamazaki smiled, "I'll go and see."
   "Bring them any flashlights." Ayako Suzuki came out of the utility room and handed five flashlights to Yamazaki.
   "Wait a minute, brother, it's raining heavily outside." Mei Daizi said, "I'll get an umbrella for you." Then she went to the utility room next to her and gave it to Yamazaki.
   When Yamazaki left, Mei Daizi went to the dining car next to the table and picked it up with her right hand. No, she raised her dinner, and excitedly asked Ran, Sonoko, and Suzuki Ayako, "Are you going to have some?"
   Looking at the whole roasted beef leg that is more than one meter long, the three of them shook their heads and refused.
   "Then I'll eat it." Mei Daizi smiled and tore off a piece of meat with her left hand, stuffed it into her mouth and chewed, "Well, the heat is a little bit worse."...
   Yamazaki held an umbrella, followed the sound of Ota Katsu and three yelling at each other, found them and Conan in the dark woods, and gave them the flashlight.
   After there was light, there was an immediate discovery, but it was a very bad discovery. They found a human foot. Looking at the shoes above, Kakutani Hiroki said in horror: "This, this is Chikako's..."
   "Ah!" Ryoichi Takahashi shone a flashlight to the side and said scaredly, "This, this is a hand!"
"Chikako..." Looking at the purple nail polish on the fingernails of that hand, Hiroki Kakutani yelled, and then saw Chikako Ikeda lying in the grass next to him, so he stepped forward to help her, but this Fuju directly picked up Chikako Ikeda's head, Hiroki Kakutani instinctively screamed and let go of his hand, and Chikako Ikeda's head fell to the ground and rolled twice. He didn't move. He recovered, Hiroki Kakutani. Painfully shouted: "Zhi Kako!"
   A moment later, Hiroki Kakutani put together the fragmented body of Chikako Ikeda, then took off his clothes and covered it.
  On the way back to the villa, at the end, Conan asked Yamazaki, "Is the axe in the villa? Have you used it this afternoon?"
   Yamazaki asked, "Are you sure it was an axe?"
   "Uh," Conan said after a moment of stunned, "I'm just asking, not sure if it is."
   "If it's an axe," Yamazaki said, "I can only say that it's not the wood axe in the villa."
   "What do you think?" Conan asked, "Did these people in the villa do it?"
   "If it's a bandage weirdo," Yamazaki said, "it's someone in the villa."
   "What!" Conan asked in surprise, "Do you know who it is?" Then angrily asked, "Since you know who it is, why don't you say it?"
   "I only found out after Ran was attacked," Yamazaki replied, "There is nothing, why should I say it? Maybe someone made a prank?"
   "Mischief?" Conan said angrily, "Is it also called a prank to attack Lan Na with an axe? It's all right now, and even the lives have been made. And the method is so cruel, Ikeda Tomoko cut off the limbs and head."
"Did you see the bandage weirdo kill that Chikako Ikeda?" Yamazaki asked, "How can you know if the bandage weirdo understands Ran, knowing that she must be able to hide before attacking her? Didn't you say that he saw you and Did you run away when the garden arrived? If you really want to kill it, even if you kill it together, you are just a child."
   "You..." Conan was speechless.
   "I'm telling the truth," Yamazaki said, "I remind you, although I didn't touch the body, I think the blood has drained and there is no blood on the ground."
"I know," Conan said, "I can see this too. The blood has been washed away by the heavy rain. Chikako Ikeda was not killed just now. Wait a minute, so that the bandage weird was holding her head just now. That said, maybe it wasn't the bandage weirdo who killed it? He just led us over."
"I don't know this. I only know that we don't have any evidence that it was a bandage weirdo who killed Chikako Ikeda." Yamazaki said, "And since you finished playing, it was between four and six o'clock in the villa. Chikako Ikeda, Ryoichi Takahashi, Masaru Ota, and Hiroki Kakutani are all alone together. All of them are suspected, including you and me."
   Conan asked, "So, who is that bandage weird?"
"You can check it yourself, or if you entrust it to our Maori detective office, how about using Shinichi Kudo?" Yamazaki laughed, "Of course, Uncle Maori and I will keep it secret for you." He took the umbrella and entered the villa.
   "Damn it." Conan said and followed into the villa.
   In the villa, the trio of Ota Katsushika were wiping the water with the towels Lanhe Yuanzi brought, and the slippers they just wore were sent to the bathroom by Lanhe Yuanzi.
Ayako Suzuki, who just learned about the death of Chikako Ikeda, was crying bitterly: "How could this happen to Chikako? It's all my fault, and it's all my fault that I planned this class meeting, and it's all to me. "
   Mei Daizi, who was gnawing on the corbel, saw Yamazaki come in, immediately put down the corbel, wiped the oil from her mouth with a tissue, and then went to help Yamazaki put the umbrella away, and then went back to eat.
   Lan watched Conan come in and wiped his body with a bath towel, while Yuanzi sent the slippers he wore to the bathroom.
   "Don't say that, Ayako." said Hiroki Kakutani. "It's not your fault. The fault is that the bandaged weird guy took Chikako away from our eyes. He is a murderer."
   "It was only Chikako's head that was taken away. Chikako was killed a long time ago." Conan said, "Brother Kakutani, weren't you filming at that time?"
   "What!" Hiroki Kakuya looked at the video played back on the camera and cried, "Really only the head."
   Takahashi Ryoichi was very scared, and said in a trembling voice: "So, after the bandage weirdo killed Chikako, he even took her head to demonstrate to us."
   Lan and Yuanzi's faces turned pale, Yuanzi was very scared and asked, "What should I do, what if he attacks again?"
"As long as the doors and windows are closed, there is no problem. Who told Zhiyako to hang out outside so late." Ota smiled, "In short, everyone forgot about this. Let's wash and go to bed early." Go to the bathroom.
"That's right, in this situation, we should all go back to the room early. Kakutani, you go take a bath, I will check the doors and windows with Yuanzi and Ran, and I will send you dinner later." Suzuki Ayako said , "We will go down the mountain at dawn tomorrow and tell the police exactly what happened."
   "Then I will trouble you, Ayako." Hiroki Kakutani went to the bathroom after speaking, and Takahashi Ryoichi followed.
   Conan asked, "Sister Lan, can you help me get my pajamas?"
   "You go first," Yamazaki smiled, "I'll send it to you later."
   Conan who was still a little angry at Yamazaki said, "Thank you, Yama, Saki, Brother, Brother." After that, he went to the bathroom.
After    Lan brought Conan’s pajamas to Yamazaki, she went with Ayako Suzuki and Sonoko to check the doors and windows carefully. After Yamazaki had eaten a portion of the barbecue shared by Meidaizi, he went to the bathroom to take a shower and sent Conan pajamas. After Mei Daizi had eaten, she began to return the food on the table to the kitchen so that it could be sent to other people's rooms after it was heated up for a while.
   Soon after, Suzuki Ayako, Sonoko, and Ran returned to the living room to meet after checking, and then went to the kitchen to start cooking. At this time, the men finished the bath, Ota and the three went upstairs, Yamazaki took over the kitchen work, Suzuki Ayako, Sonoko, Ran, and Meidaizi went to take a bath, and then Conan started serving dishes again. ...
   At night, No. 203, Ran and Conan’s room. There are two beds in each room, and Lan and Conan are sitting on the same bed, watching TV programs.
Soon after, the TV show ended. Lan got up and turned off the TV. Then he checked the French windows. Then when he was about to go to bed, he suddenly found Conan holding his chin in a thinking state, so he smiled and asked, "What's wrong, thinking What, Conan?"
   Conan said: "It's weird, Zhi Jiazi is wearing shoes."
   Lan asked, "What's so strange about this?"
   "Aren't the shoes in the hallway? Brother Takahashi has been on the roof of the living room, he can see the front," Conan said, "If Chikako goes out, he will definitely see it."
   Lan said, "By the way, Yuanzi found a pair of slippers at the back door. Sister Zhi Jiazi might have walked through the back door."
   "From the back door?" Conan asked, "Sister Lan, aren't you in the kitchen? Didn't you see it?"
   "For a while, we closed the kitchen door in order to prevent oil smoke from entering the room." Lan said, "Sister Zhijiazi may have gone out at that time."
  Conan thought, but why didn't Chikako Ikeda go out through the entrance, but through the back door? It just so happened that when the kitchen door was closed, it seemed to be deliberately avoiding people's eyes.
  Looking at Conan still thinking, Lan smiled and said, "Okay, don't worry, if the bandage weirdo comes again, I can deal with your sister Lan with one hand."
   Stand on the ground with one hand and call for help, Conan thought, didn’t you get frightened when you were attacked in the woods? Then I thought of what Yamazaki said about the prank, and asked, "By the way, why did that person attack Sister Lan?"
   Lan thought for a while and said, "Maybe he will attack anyone when he sees it."
   Conan asked again: "Sister Lan, do you think that person is going to kill you? Will he know that you can definitely avoid that?"
"This," Lan thought about it for a moment and said, "I don't know ~EbookFREE.me~ Sister Lan," Conan asked again, "Will anyone hate you, like playing in a karate match? What about the seriously injured person, then wrap your face and scare you again?"
   "Is there such a person?" Lan said, "Okay, hurry up and go to bed." Then he turned off the light and went to bed.
   Conan was lying on the bed thinking about what happened today. It was so strange. How did the guy Yamazaki find out who was the bandage weird? If it was made by a bandage weirdo, if he would attack Zhikako from the back door tonight, why did he go around the window to show us his appearance? Is he purely to make us afraid? How about... Huh? Conan found that Lan came over with a pillow.
   "Let's sleep together." Lan said, he lifted Conan's quilt and slept on the bed.
   Conan asked: "Why?"
  Lan smiled and said, "Don't ask so much."
   "Should you be afraid?" Conan asked.
   "Don't ask." Lan smiled, then pulled up the quilt and said, "Good night, Conan." He closed his eyes.
   "I can't stand women." Conan whispered, and then thought, by the way, where did I think about it, um...
   No, Conan looked at Lan, who was close at hand, with the faint light, Conan cried out in his heart, there was no way to think. Then he said, Forget it, did the bandage weirdo do it? The police have to search for it. I don't need to go out and sleep now. Then looking at Lan's face, she fell asleep unconsciously. ...
