Chapter 708 Biting your fingers is not a good habit
"You guys, you look like this, have you watched too many TV series or movies?" Motegi Haruhi complained unceremoniously.
"Maybe the person under the cloak is not a human at all." Tsushima Shuji said, with a faint smile in his voice.
"Did you find anything?" Hakuba Tan asked, standing next to Tsushima Shuji.
"Nothing, just guessing." Tsushima Shuji closed his eyes and shook his head.
"After all, there are many such techniques in TV dramas and movies, right? Using a dummy or a puppet to appear on the scene instead of the real person, wrapped in a cloak, maybe because... he has no face at all under the cloak."
"Maybe what he said was a pre-recorded tape or something." He said a bunch of things in a guessing tone.
The face that has been aged for thousands of years has no fluctuation.
"Otherwise, just give it a try. If it's a real person, or someone is controlling it remotely, it should be able to respond to what I say." Shuji Tsushima spread his hands.
"Please answer me, are you a dummy?" He asked the figure sitting in the main seat with a smile and politeness.
The figure in the main seat did not respond.
He just kept talking to himself as if he had already set his lines.
"The main reason for inviting you all this time is to ask you to help me find the treasure hidden somewhere in the annex. It took me many years to get this wealth, and I have to risk my life to get it." He used
The voice is male.
"Very good, we can confirm that it's a dummy. It's not a remote control, but pre-recorded lines. Let's sit down and listen to the other lines." Shuji Tsushima walked straight towards the position and said lightly.
"What, it's a dummy." Mouri Kogoro said with a speechless expression.
Everyone also looked disappointed and sat down one after another.
The great Shang Zhushan, who was wearing a white suit, glanced at the back of the young man in a red suit with an unclear expression, then turned to the maid and spoke.
"Just wait for the food to be served in the order I ordered." He ordered.
"I understand." Miss Ishihara bowed and nodded.
"You are indeed the most popular junior high school detective. You are truly worthy of your reputation. You can tell at a glance that it is a dummy." Motegi Haruji clapped his hands and said.
"Tsushima-san always talks about the truth in a speculative tone." Edogawa Conan said innocently from the side.
"Hey~ I really just guessed." The black-haired boy with wild eyes blinked and raised the corners of his mouth.
Seeing that the other party once again wore the same hairstyle as Dazai Osamu, Edogawa Conan was already very calm.
He obviously hates Osamu Dazai so much, and even mentions Osamu Dazai with murderous intent, but he doesn't mind matching his hairstyle.
Oh, that face, Tsushima said before, it was also because he resembled Dazai Osamu, so he didn’t want to see the whole face.
"Chairman Tsushima is joking. If you can tell the truth by just guessing, there won't be any need for our detectives." Ikumi Gunada said with a smile.
Everyone ignored the dummy who was still speaking his lines until a deafening explosion sounded.
"What is that sound?!" Dashang Zhushan patted the table and stood up.
"There's nothing surprising. I just wanted to block your way."
"You have always been chasing me in the past. Now and then it's time for our status to change." The dummy continued to read the lines.
Everyone looked at Dashang Zhushan with unclear meaning.
What the other party just said...
But it perfectly matches the lines of the figure in the main position.
"It seems that everyone's cars were bombed." Shuji Tsushima said helplessly.
The eyes between Toru Amuro and Midorikawa became complicated under their sunglasses.
I originally thought it was just an accident like a punctured tire, and it would be fine just to repair it or replace something.
Unexpectedly...
The car was blown up directly.
Teacher Chablis will find them.
The two looked at each other, each noticing the other's complicated mood.
If I had known that the car would be blown up, I might as well have driven the Tsushima family's car.
Anyway, Shuji Tsushima doesn’t lack that car.
Now, how should I explain to Mr. Chablis that his car was bombed?
Bourbon and Scotland don't want to experience childhood education at all.
"My Alfa Romeo——" Motegi Haruji stood up.
"The suspension bridge you passed when you came also fell off the cliff at the same time, so you are completely unable to leave here now." The figure in the main seat continued.
"Actually, I wanted to say it from the beginning. The person the other detectives have been chasing is Kaitou Kidd, but the mastermind behind this time is not Kidd." Tsujima Shuji supported his chin with one hand and tapped it lightly with his index finger.
on the desktop.
"I don't look like I'm pretending to be Kaitou Kidd, really..."
"Kid would never behave like this."
"Although I have no interest in catching Kidd." His eyes were careless.
Kaitou Kid, who was wearing Mouri Kogoro's skin, nodded repeatedly.
That's right, he would not do such a thing.
Blow up other people's cars and stuff.
Too rude too.
It's completely inconsistent with the magnificence of a magician.
"Hey? What does this have to do with Kaitou Kidd? Mouri Kogoro looked confused.
"Didn't the signature on the invitation letter already indicate it?" Baima Tan showed a confident smile.
"The phantom of the god-forsaken boy." Ikumi Gunada answered.
"The cub of the black goat..." Qianjian Fangdai also continued his analysis.
"phantom……"
"It refers to Kaitou Kidd."
"That's an exquisite meal that all detectives want to enjoy." Dashang Zhushan smiled inexplicably.
"That's why we were invited to come."
"But at present, it seems that the mastermind behind this time is not Kidd." One after another, the detectives explained their reasoning about the signature code.
"Really, since it's not Kidd, I have no interest in it either in the so-called treasure or in a shady mastermind behind the scenes, but..." Motegi Haruhi stood up.
He lifted up the cloak of the figure on the main seat.
Looking at the head of the tape, he smiled.
"I'm very interested in finding out who's really behind it," he said.
"Is anyone willing to change positions? I don't want everything to go according to some guy's arrangement." Motegi Harushi said loudly.
"I don't mind."
"I can do it."
"I'd love to."
Everyone agreed with Motegi Harushi's proposal.
Shuji Tsushima also followed them and changed positions as a matter of course.
Everyone wiped the tableware and began to taste the food silently.
Shuji Tsushima pushed the cup towards himself.
I had no intention of touching it.
The smell on it is too obvious to ignore.
And it's still on the cup handle.
The mouth will not come into contact, only the fingers will.
He glanced vaguely at the maid standing next to him biting her finger.
He looked away again.
It seems that this way of death was originally prepared for the maid lady.
but……
These foods are not prepared for each other.
The same finger-biting hobby?
Tsushima Shuji's eyes fell on the great Shang Zhushan.
The other party also has the habit of biting his fingers.
Maybe this technique was thought up by the other party himself and planned to be used on the maid who had the same habits as him, but...
Used by his companions on himself.
He will probably die soon.
Tsushima Shuji withdrew his gaze and enjoyed the food silently.
