The famous criminal in the world of Conan

Chapter 289 Tragedy 4 Years Ago

"It happened on that night forty years ago, and this annex still retains its glorious appearance."

"That night, this villa gathered celebrities and upper-class people from all over the world and held a very secret party here."

"To the outside world, this meeting is a memorial service for Karasuma Renya, who passed away at the age of 99."

"But, in fact, this secret meeting was actually an auction for the large amount of gold, silver and jewelry that Karasuma Renye owned during his lifetime."

"It was said that the auction items at that time were more than 300 pieces, so it was estimated that it would take three days and three nights."

"but......"

The voice coming from the loudspeaker suddenly changed.

"On the second night of the auction, it was a stormy night with heavy rain. Suddenly, two men came to this villa. They were soaked by the rain."

"The two men, with their lips trembling from the rain, said tremblingly, 'We have lost our way in this storm. Can you please let us stay here until the storm passes?'"

"At that time, the auctioneer actually wanted to refuse, but the man took out a small bag from his pocket. I don't know what was inside. I could only see that it looked like cigarettes."

"After the host took it, he quickly tasted it, smoked a cigarette, and then readily agreed to the two men's request and enthusiastically invited them into the annex."

"After the two came in, they began to induce other guests to smoke together. Soon, the whole villa was filled with smoke."

"Could it be that that thing is..."

Kogoro Maori was stunned, but did not continue speaking.

But everyone else had already guessed it.

Obviously, it was drugs.

"At first, there were some reasonable guests who argued over the two sudden visitors."

"But very quickly, that changed completely."

"But then a man suddenly screamed as if he had seen a ghost, and then he ran out holding the artwork he had won with great difficulty."

"Then, another woman seemed to be begging for forgiveness, tears welling up in her eyes, and she couldn't stop crying..."

Although the sound of the loudspeaker was deep, the words spoken by it at this moment seemed to come from a cold hell.

"There was also a man holding a fountain pen, stabbing his wrist hard and frantically..."

"In the end, it seemed like the scene was getting out of control. The celebrities present had already started fighting over the auction items. They even started using the precious swords and knives from the auction to attack each other."

"The entire auction venue and the entire annex are like a living hell at this moment!"

"After this horrific night, the annex finally returned to peace."

"However, at this moment, there are already eight dead people lying in the venue, and more than a dozen seriously injured and unconscious guests."

"But the two men at that time disappeared without a trace, taking all the artworks with them. It felt as if they had never been there."

Hearing this, Maori Kogoro couldn't help but wonder,

"This is such a big tragedy, why didn't we see any reports at the time?"

"Well, I'm afraid the problem lies among those guests."

Da Shang Zhu Shan sighed,

"Those individuals at that time were all celebrities in the financial world."

After Dashang Zhushan said this, everyone understood this truth.

"Those people were all big shots at the time. It would be so embarrassing if something like this happened."

Chijian Jiangdai said with a smile.

"Indeed, rather than going to great lengths to get to the bottom of this matter,"

Koshimizu Nanatsuki nodded, with a look of disappointment in her eyes.

"It's better to suppress this matter."

She had a deep understanding of this. Thinking back to the incident with Tokitsu Junya, didn't the police from Shikoku handle the case with the mentality of "less trouble is worse than more"?

If Bai Masong had not happened to come there at that time, her friend would probably have committed suicide unjustly, and that Tokatsu Junya who did not take human life seriously would still be at large.

"Moreover, those two men must have thought of this outcome a long time ago, so they were able to boldly carry out such a crazy plan."

Mogi Harushi sneered.

"Well, you're right,"

Gunda Ikumi first affirmed what Mogi Harushi said, then turned her head sideways and smiled easily.

"This old story is indeed a good appetizer."

"Now, I think everyone should understand why I chose this villa as the stage for this game."

The dummy with the loudspeaker once again spoke.

"My goal is to make you detectives reenact the scene of fratricide that happened back then."

"I want to see you fighting each other for the treasures here."

"Humph!"

The great master Zhu Shan snorted coldly.

"It's so boring!"

"But it's a bit difficult for you to find the treasure in such a big villa."

The dummy continued,

"Then I'll give you a hint."

"Two travelers looked up at the night sky, when the devil descended upon the castle."

"The king took the treasure and fled."

"The princess shed tears and begged for mercy."

"The soldiers cut their own throats, and the ground was stained with their blood."

When everyone heard these sentences, they naturally connected them with the tragedy that the dummy had described.

As expected, the dummy sneered.

"Haha, I came up with this after a lot of effort based on what happened back then. Don't you think these words are very consistent with the tragedy that is about to happen now?"

After the dummy said this, Gunda Ikumi couldn't help but laugh.

"Oh, don't be silly. Even if you want us to fight for this treasure, you have to see if we have that intention."

Speaking of this, Ikumi Qiangtian wanted to laugh. She didn't know whether this so-called Kaito Kidd did it on purpose this time, and all the people he invited were related to Hakuba Song.

As long as they all gathered around the white horse pine, they would not be in chaos even if the master said anything.
