Be the god of death in the world of famous detectives

Chapter 165 Let's Watch the Fireworks

In front of this kind of people who should know that "Conan is Kudo Shinichi", Shiraki did not shy away from this question.

He even wished that the other party would find out sooner, so that there would be one more person to help the protagonist solve the case, and the finishing work after the results were collected could be accelerated, not for the sake of flattery.

"He signed up by himself? He was selected?" Hattori Heiji suddenly frowned:

"This is not 'lucky'. There are several complex reasoning questions attached to the registration form. Those who sign up need to solve the questions and explain their thinking. Jingu will select people based on their problem-solving ability-you don't think this is a good thing for a primary school student. Is it really too difficult?."

Without waiting for the white tree to squeak, he suddenly stretched out his hand from under the quilt, snatched up the topic that had been thrown in the ashes beside him, and flipped through a few pages, "How can he understand? These Chinese characters don't have pinyin!"

"Some people are very talented. Not only can they recognize words quickly, but they are also very precocious. Sometimes, even if you don't look at his face, you will think he is an adult."

Bai Shu unceremoniously sold a wave of teammates, and then urged, "Aren't you going to sleep? I'll turn off the lights when I sleep."

Hattori Heiji seemed to be seriously recalling something, and did not respond to him, Shiraki waited for a few seconds, when he acquiesced, got up and turned off the light.

Soon, the other two rooms also went dark in turn.

The lights in other rooms were still on until the next day: those who really came for the book all stayed up all night.

……

The next day, it was supposed to be the normal time to do the questions.

But those who want to take the book have already finished the questions, and the other paddlers naturally have nothing to do. At this moment, everyone can finally enjoy the food and sea view leisurely.

——Everywhere in this hotel is mediocre, and it can have such a high price purely because it is built by the sea. It is a "sea view room" in the literal sense.

Everyone chatted from morning to noon, after lunch, and from noon to night.

After dinner, it was time for the question that Boss Jingu said.

However, amidst the eager eyes, the door of the restaurant remained closed until ten o'clock, and Jin Gu failed to make an appearance.

Ayako Oki brushed her long black hair back to her shoulders, and finally couldn't help but look at the waiter, urging, "Call Mr. Kanaya to come out and change the exam papers."

The waiter was a very shy country girl who was stared at by everyone. The pockmarks on her cheeks were even more conspicuous due to her blushing. She pinched her apron without moving, and said in a low voice, "The boss asked me to entertain everyone until after dinner. Until he comes in..."

The implication is that it can't be done, and we have to wait for Boss Jingu to come out by himself.

"Haha, don't worry." Physical education teacher Ikuo Kawazu, astrologer Maria Toda, and Nanako Shimizu, who is full of Sadako's aura, are very Buddhist. The three slowly drank coffee:

"He must be planning to show up out of the blue and startle us."

"Yes, as Sherlock Holmes fans, we should enjoy being frightened."

"..."

However, until 12 o'clock, the "scare" and "surprise" were all gone.

Jin Gu never showed up as if he forgot about this matter.

The middle-aged and elderly group were the first to fail. Toshiaki Fujisawa, who was nearly [-] years old, slapped the table and stood up angrily, "Young people nowadays have no sense of time! I won't play with him anymore, I want to go back to my room to sleep!"

The waiter didn't dare to say a word, and watched him walk away.

Maria Toda caressed the crystal necklace, supported her chubby face, but couldn't get up, and said gloomily:

"It seems that the rumors are true. People say that giving away the first edition of the book is a scam. Every time, Mr. Jingu deliberately makes the topic difficult, so that everyone can't get it all right."

Nanako Shimizu raised her head, her thick bangs covered her eyes, she said ghostly, "Mr. Kanaya's real purpose is probably to gather Holmes fans, and then show off this book to everyone."

The Buddhist trio also left one after another.

Hattori Heiji took a bite of the biscuit, and looked at Conan with a subtle dislike, "You made such a big noise just to show off an old book? Are you fans so boring?"

"You don't understand the meaning of that book at all!" Conan, a fanatical fan, hugged the title, as if stuck to a stool, and said to himself:
"I am confident that I can answer the reasoning question correctly. Even if he wants to show off, he must give me the book according to the rules."

Hey, it really doesn't look like a normal kid, could it be Kudo Shinichi's younger brother?
...Thinking about it this way, they do look a bit alike.

……

Bai Shu ran to the seat by the window after eating, and opened the window while no one was paying attention.He propped his head up and looked at the cliff leading to the sea outside, ready to take off and run over at any time.

Not far from him, Ayako Oki covered her lips and yawned, then threw herself on Kento Toto.

She twisted a handful of long hair, half coquettish and half bored to scratch the latter's neck:

"Ah Yan, let's go back too. I stayed up all night yesterday, and going to bed late today will not be good for my skin."

Shihu Yanren put his arms around her, and smiled with the corners of his lips curled up, "Wait a minute, at this time, the one who leaves first loses first."

Oki Ayako puffed her cheeks in dissatisfaction, and wanted to leave him and go back to the room first, but when she stood upright, she suddenly saw a reflection—something was moving slowly outside.

swipe-

Bai Shu raised his hand and opened the half-opened curtains, and more light diffused from the hall to the outside.

The others squinted their eyes, and were surprised to find that in the darkness, a van with the sticker "Journey to Sherlock Holmes" was slowly driving towards the cliff along the gentle slope.

Bai Shu raised his leg, jumped out of the window logically, and ran towards Ye... towards the car that was sliding towards the cliff.

The sound insulation of old-fashioned cars is not very good. After running close, in addition to the sound of the engine, you can also faintly hear the whirring sound of the air conditioner.

In the car, Jin Gu was wearing his Sherlock Holmes cosplay suit, holding the steering wheel stiffly with both hands, and his hat was pressed down very low, motionless.

In the middle of his hands, a terrified soul was stepping on the blanket covering the dashboard, holding the steering wheel tightly, looking at the cliff ahead, screaming in disorder.

Bai Shu patted the car window, using this action to exert force secretly, the soul suddenly seemed to be pulled by the back of the neck by a pair of invisible hands.

He was forced to let go of the steering wheel, rolled to the window with a grunt, smashed against the window, was dragged by a corner again, pierced through the window, and pulled out a little stagnantly.

This ghost didn't seem very courageous, it had just died not long ago, it was almost forced to fall off the cliff, and it had just gone through a not-so-good stretching exercise, its face was pale at the moment, as if it was going to go west in a few minutes.

Seeing how miserable he was, Bai Shu wanted to comfort him, but at this moment, other people had already approached him, so he paused and stopped talking.

"Is there someone inside?" Before Hattori Heiji and Conan arrived, the voice came first, and it was abnormally synchronized.

Bai Shu made room for them, "Boss Jin Gu is in the driver's seat, so he can't wake him up."

"What?!", the detective duo clicked the car door a few times, failed, and began to slap on the window frantically, "Uncle, wake up! Stop it! It will fall!"

Of course the dead couldn't answer.

Not only did the car not stop, it even accelerated suddenly on the way and rushed straight towards the cliff.

Hattori Heiji and Conan stood on the side, grabbed the protruding part of the car with all their strength, trying to stop the fall, but the car's engine was running, and it was a six-seater car, so it was not light. to the slightest effect.

Jin Gu and his car still fell off the cliff, hit a hideous protruding rock below, and exploded into a firework on the spot.
