Chapter 211 The murderer is anxious
Chapter 211 The murderer is anxious
Dinner was completed with the help of Ran Mouri, and the atmosphere became lively again after everyone had recovered from the chaos. Kakutani took a camera and filmed the two girls.
However, when Takahashi, who was repairing the roof upstairs, was called down, an accident happened, or something no one had expected.
Of course, this big family does not include Lingshi. Lingshi was sitting in his seat and heard Takahashi's screams, just waiting to watch his performance.
The screams attracted everyone's attention, and the tension that had just relaxed was raised to the highest point again. Ota was the most obviously nervous when he questioned Takahashi upstairs.
"Hey, Takahashi, what's wrong!?"
Takahashi: "Who are you and what are you going to do!?"
Takahashi upstairs did not respond to Ota Masaru's question, but continued to speak on his own, and then the anxious crowd understood what he meant.
Outside the downstairs window, a masked and bandaged man passed by, holding Chikako Ikeda, who was supposed to be resting in the room.
Two figures flashed by and ran towards the woods outside. Conan jumped off the chair and chased after them.
Ota Katsu took the flashlight and called on the others to follow Conan and chase him. The girls stayed behind to pay attention to their safety. Lingshi raised his hand silently and said:
"Leave the girls to me, you guys go ahead."
Seeing that Lingshi volunteered, Ota Katsu didn't say anything more. After agreeing, he immediately turned around and led everyone to follow Conan and chase after him.
Zero Hour: I don’t want to follow them. I remember they found a dismembered body. That guy was really ruthless and didn’t even find it disgusting.
The girls didn't intend to sit here and wait for death, so they stood up and prepared to check the doors and windows. Lingshi had no choice but to follow them. So when Lingshi saw something at the front door, he knew that the case was over again.
System: Host, this is...
Zero Hour: What Conan needs most.
I looked around at midnight and could only pull out four tissues still on the thing before picking it up. I pulled out three more and wrapped it up, making sure it was tight and clean before taking it away.
Ling Shi didn't check it carefully. After all, as someone who knew the truth, he was not worried about other situations.
After checking the doors and windows, Lingshi and the others returned to the living room to wait. When Conan and the others came back, they heard from them the tragic news of Chikako Ikeda's death.
Lingzi let out a sound of disbelief and felt terrible. Xiaolan and the other girls also showed expressions of disbelief.
But the incident had already happened, and we couldn't make a phone call now. The only thing we could do was wait until the next morning and go down the mountain together to find the police.
Conan looked at the murderer at midnight with a serious expression. There was nothing wrong with his expression. He probably felt relieved because no one knew his secret this time.
Lingshi suddenly felt bored, so he pulled Conan over. Conan's train of thought was interrupted and he looked over in confusion.
He was used to Lingshi's indifferent attitude when it came to the case, but this was the first time that Lingshi interrupted his thinking, and he didn't know what was going on.
Then, Lingshi said something extraordinary, which made Conan excited.
"Hey, the murderer might have disposed of the evidence by tonight. Do you want to catch him tonight?"
Conan: "You mean?"
Facing the expectant gaze, Lingshi nodded. Conan became excited, but also surprised that Lingshi knew where the murderer was so quickly.
Even he himself had only just thought of the beginning. Looking at Conan's unyielding eyes, Lingshi knew what he was thinking.
It seems that it is not Conan's fault that he did not find the murderer among the people in the villa. After all, his clues were picked up at midnight, and the murderer did not attack Xiaolan. It seemed that he randomly chose people in the villa to attack.
Zero raised his eyebrows and asked Conan,
"Just tell me if you want to, and I'll help you."
Conan nodded vigorously. Now the others also noticed that they had been whispering. Xiaolan asked:
"What's wrong, Mr. Zero Time, and Conan-kun, did you discover something?"
Conan wanted to say something, but Lingshi covered his mouth.
"Hey, I can't tell you that. I'm going to tell the police tomorrow. It's confidential."
"What!?"
A group of people made shocked noises, and one of them even sounded terrified. From what Lingshi said, this was news about the bandaged weirdo.
At zero o'clock, he showed an expression of helplessness that turned into complacency.
"Okay, everyone's so excited, so I can only briefly say that Conan just told me what happened outside and some small things I found."
Lingshi took out the paper ball and shook it in front of everyone.
"It's all wrapped up here. The truth about who the murderer is will be revealed tomorrow. I'll submit the evidence and explain the situation to the police."
Then he pretended to glance at everyone casually. One of them looked at the thing in Lingshi's hand with a burning gaze, probably wondering what was inside that could identify him as the murderer.
After saying that at midnight, they didn't want to say anything more. They just said that it would be over for tonight, and everyone should go back to sleep. They would get up early and set off the next day.
It was late at night, and both beds in their room were curled up in a ball. It seemed that the owners were sleeping soundly and had no idea that someone had broken into the house.
The so-called masked and bandaged weirdo raised his axe high and chopped it towards one of the beds, where Zero Hour was lying.
The axe was fast and fierce. Lingshi was about to be hit, but he suddenly opened his eyes and rolled over to avoid the axe.
The bed was split in two, and Lingshi fell to the ground and squatted. His eyes were bright and did not look like someone who had just woken up.
Ling Shi: "That's right, this is fun. This is exactly what I want. What's the point of solving a case? Of course it should be like this."
Lingshi was talking to himself, and his eyes changed when he saw the weirdo opposite him. The bandaged weirdo was stunned for a moment when he saw that Lingshi was awakened. When he saw that Lingshi had no intention of calling for help, he raised his axe and came over to chop him again.
Lingshi didn't move for a long time, and in the eyes of the murderer, he looked like he was scared to death. Just like before, the axe was about to hit Lingshi, but he dodged it again.
Zero suddenly said:
"It's too slow. It's still not working. This level is not good enough. It's not fun."
Lingshi had already rushed to the murderer and spoke to him face to face. Although his face could not be seen due to the bandages, it was not difficult to see the shock in his eyes.
The two people were dressed differently. It was obvious that one was the attacker and the other was the one being attacked, but their auras were completely different at this moment.
Just when the murderer didn't react, Lingshi punched him directly in the lower abdomen. Lingshi controlled the strength of this punch very well. When he heard the sound of the axe falling to the ground, he knew that he had lost his fighting ability.
Zero Hour: Solved, so boring.
System: You seem to have awakened some extraordinary attributes, host.
The system is afraid and dares not speak, feeling that the host has become abnormal.
Lingshi didn't say anything. When the guy saw that he couldn't deal with Lingshi, he held his stomach, picked up the axe again and wanted to run outside, but a group of people appeared in the corridor outside.
Zero Hour: "Checkmate, the killing game is over."
