Chapter 29
Chapter 29 Disappeared corpse
After a while, the man’s younger brother returned home quickly. He was the owner of the house, a clerk of a securities company named Tomoshi Tanaka.
When was brought to the front of Officer Megumi by the police officer, Tomomi Tanaka looked at the messed up room in surprise.
“Police officer, what the **** is going on?”
Mumu explained: “We received a call from these children that a dead body was found in your house.”
“corpse, corpse?”
“It’s so noisy! Can’t you be quieter?!” At this time, because Yuanta accidentally smashed a clay pot, a man’s roar came immediately upstairs, and everyone was shocked. .
The man looked towards the second floor: “Is my brother on the second floor now?”
“Yes, he seems to be quite angry,” Mumu asked habitually, with a not good face, “take the liberty to ask, what industry does your brother work in?”
“My brother is a freelance writer, so he often stays at home to write,” Tanaka explained, then handed out a card and said, “This is my business card…”
Gao Cheng looked at Tanaka who seemed to be more easy-going when talking with Officer Megure.
is really a strange pair of brothers. It is obviously that the elder brother lives in his own home. This younger brother looks like he is afraid of his elder brother. He is even more honest than Officer Takagi.
But where did the corpse go?
The police search is still continuing, but even the attic and even under the floor have been searched, but nothing has been found.
Mumu’s face was even more ugly, and he turned to Tomomi Tanaka and said, “I have searched everywhere, and now only your brother’s room is left…”
“Well, it’s okay if my brother doesn’t mind.”
Tokoshi Tanaka led everyone to the door of his brother’s room, knocked gently on the door and said, “Brother, can you go in?”
kept knocking a few more times. Seeing no one responded, Tanaka took the initiative to open the door. Inside, his brother was sitting motionless in a chair with his head propped to sleep, and the TV in front of him was still playing programs.
He walked over and glanced carefully, then turned his head and said to everyone: “It’s okay, come in, he’s already asleep.”
“Okay, let’s finish the search quickly.”
Mumu led a few policemen into the room, but the room was very simple and basically nothing, and I looked over the cabinet by the wall and found nothing.
Mumu deliberately opened the curtains and looked outside, only to see a big tree and a high wall.
Gao Cheng also leaned to the window and opened the window probe to look out.
If the body is not in the house, it is likely to be moved outside, but it does not seem to have any special traces.
There is no reason. Although his reasoning is like that, his observation ability is not weak. Originally, there is an observation ability bonus in kendo. After so many days of adaptation, plus learning and training, it is not comparable to Conan, but it is not There should be no trace at all…
“Really,” Tanaka suddenly looked helplessly at his brother in front of the TV. “If you want to sleep, don’t turn off the TV…”
“Click!” The TV was turned off as soon as he said.
Everyone was shocked when they saw this, and hurriedly exited the room: “Oops! It seems to wake him up!”
“Huh?” Before Gao Cheng could think much, he was pulled out of the room in a panic, almost losing sister Kai.
What is doing?
……
At night, the busy police complained that the team had left, and no longer believed the testimony of Conan.
But there is no way. The whole house has been searched, but no corpse was found. Outside the wall behind the house is a very high river bank. Although a person can climb up the wall by the tree, he wants to dispose of the corpse. It’s impossible.
After Gao Cheng handed over Kai Mei to the client as his younger brother, he returned to the scene and looked at the second floor thoughtfully.
I’m still a bit unsure, but when he entered that brother’s room, he always felt something was wrong, as if there was something he cared about.
“Are you still there?” Yuanta and the others saw Gao Cheng sneaking into the yard secretly, and approached in dissatisfaction, “Really, this is our case!”
Gao Cheng regained his senses, twitched the corners of his mouth, and when he found that Conan was not there, he whispered: “I just want to help you find the corpse… By the way, what about your friend with glasses?”
“You mean Conan,” Yuanta heard Gao Sung want to help, and immediately replied like a human, “Conan went into the house alone just now.”
“Already in?”
Gao Cheng’s expression tightened, and without asking a few more children, he climbed directly onto the big tree behind the yard.
Seeing this scene, Yuanta quickly exclaimed in a low voice: “Hey! That strange uncle is still inside…”
hasn’t finished speaking, but Gao Cheng has already jumped into the second floor window that was opened before.
“Okay, amazing!” Yuan Tai watched Gao Cheng silently enter the second floor in a daze.
“Who is he anyway?” Mitsuhiko said in a daze.
Bumi wrinkled her little nose, thinking hard: “I really seem to have seen it somewhere…”
“Bumi, you think too much, he is just a little like Conan.”
……
On the second floor of the house, the man in the bathrobe still keeps that strange sleeping position.
Gao Cheng fell into a steady figure, looked at the man for the first time, and suddenly brows jumped by the moonlight.
In this quiet environment, the kind of awkwardness is even more obvious…
There is no sound of breathing, and the man feels completely different from a living person. This feeling is either a lurking master or a dead person!
It just so happens that the original owner is very sensitive to dead people’s corpses…
Gao Cheng swallowed and walked to the man’s side, his fingers trembling and poked, and he immediately felt that the man who was motionless had signs of stiffness.
Corpse, corpse! !
Gao Chengceng took a few steps back.
So that’s the case, that’s why the body can’t be found… But how did it do it?
“It’s you?” Conan sneaked into the room and found Gao Cheng was already inside. He couldn’t help but whispered, “What are you doing here? Go back quickly. The murderer is still in the house. You are a little kid. It’s dangerous.”
“Aren’t you a kid too?” Gao Cheng curled his lips, suddenly his expression tightened, and hurriedly pulled Conan to the corner of the room.
“Those nasty little ghosts, haven’t you given up yet?” With the sound of footsteps going upstairs, Tomomi Tanaka cursed and entered his brother’s room with a golf club.
Conan was sweating coldly, watching the gloomy-faced Tokoshi Tanaka looking out the window, nervously backhanded Gao Cheng and moved towards the door.
“Who?” Tanaka heard the movement and turned his head in horror, “Yes, are you?”
“Run!” Conan’s expression changed, taking advantage of Tanaka’s daze, he hurriedly pulled Gao Cheng out of the room.
Tokoshi Tanaka’s face changed, thinking that the matter might have been exposed, he followed with a hideous face and raised his golf club to chase: “Bring me back!!”
“Damn it!” Conan gritted his teeth and ran to the place where he put on his foot-strengthening shoes, but when he turned around he found that Gao Cheng hadn’t kept up.
“Oops!!”
“Go to hell, kid!”
At the top of the stairs, Gao Cheng had already summoned the wooden sword Toya Lake to wait for the crazy looking Tanaka Tomoshi. He calmly avoided the fierce club attack, and suddenly grasped the handle of the knife with both hands and lifted it up.
Tanaka Tomori’s twisted smile froze on his face, his eyes widened in disbelief.
“Bang!” With the inertia of Tanaka Chishi’s attack, the wooden knife easily picked it up, flew directly over Gao Cheng’s head, rolled over and fell on the floor of the hallway behind.
“Huh?!” Conan hurriedly put on his shoes and hurried back, only to see Ko Sung standing next to the unconscious Tanaka Chishi, and Lake Toya recovered the system at the end of the attack.
“you……”
“He fell down the stairs suddenly,” Gao Cheng spread his hands and said that he had nothing to do with him. He looked at Conan with a look of shock and asked with a deep gaze, “However, I am still very surprised if Mr. Tanaka is the murderer. How did he do it? At that time, his brother even yelled at him, right?”
“It’s because of the answering machine,” returning to the topic of reasoning, Conan explained with a confident expression, “He recorded it before the police came, just like this.”
Conan said as he took out Tomohiro Tanaka’s mobile phone and pressed the speed dial button, the house suddenly sounded the scary curse before: “It’s so noisy! Can’t you just be quiet?!”
“Look,” Conan laughed. “He turned the phone ring in the house to mute, and when we didn’t pay attention to pressing the speed dial button of the mobile phone, the answering machine automatically sounded, and it sounded like it was His brother cursed on the second floor.”
“But when he was on the second floor, didn’t his brother turn off the TV?”
“I think he set the timing to shut down the VCR in advance, and then cooperate with the acting. Because he was worried that we discovered the fact that our brother has died, so he was anxious to let us leave that room.”
“It turned out to be like this,” Gao Sung figured everything out and looked at Conan with a complicated expression You are really amazing. Although I know he is a murderer, I don’t know how he did it. . ”
Only then did Conan have time to look at Gao Cheng carefully, and vaguely felt a little familiar: “After all, who are you?”
The face under the light is similar and different from him, with an indescribable temperament… In short, it doesn’t look like an ordinary child.
“I’m just a kid passing by.” Gao Cheng smiled lightly, turned and left from the entrance. This time he settled the incident as a child. He had no idea about prestige from the beginning, and there was no credit to Conan. .
“What a weird guy.”
Conan put his hands in his pockets, and walked past Tanaka Tomori with his eyes half-open. Suddenly, his brows jumped and he looked at a scratch on Tanaka’s chest shirt.
“Strange, it looks like it was cut with something… a knife?”
Conan somehow appeared in his mind several times of successful shots: “Wooden sword?”
“Conan!” Hearing the movement, Bumei called the police and hurriedly rushed into the open entrance. Seeing Xie Cai’s Tanaka Chishi, they said in surprise, “Is it over?”
“Damn it!” Yuanta stared at Conan with an unhappy expression, “You are acting handsome again!”
Conan regained his senses, full of black lines: Where is he handsome? It’s dangerous!
Looking at the people who were chattering, Conan gave a white glance and shook his head and said, “It’s the kid’s contribution, I can’t do anything at all.”
“Huh?” Yuanta was taken aback, “Really? That strange child?”
“Yes, and…”
Conan turned his head and glanced at the faint knife mark, paused, and shook his head mockingly: How could it be that guy? Just a strange kid.
