272 Broken Windows

Conan and his party simply restrained the corpse and did not move. He did not have enough experience in such a horrific dismemberment murder case, and the others panicked. Several people decided to go back to the villa to report the incident.

——Why did the murderer deliberately show up?

Although the idea of ​​a murderer cannot be measured by common sense, he always finds it a little strange.

When they returned to the entrance, Winnet and the others who were staying in the villa were already waiting at the door.

"Chikako, she...she was killed."

"What? You said Chikako she..."

Hearing this news, Ayako was frightened——Chikako had told her to rest in the room, how could she be killed?Ayako blamed herself very much for this. If she had been a little tougher and invited her to have dinner with her, maybe this kind of thing would not have happened.

"Yeah, she was killed. She was killed when we arrived."

Thinking of the situation of Chikako Ikeda, Kakutani really couldn't fully describe the cruel fact. He didn't want to mention the situation of the corpse. During Ayako's astonished questioning, he said sadly: "I have already used my clothes first. Cover her body."

"Miss Chikako, how could such a thing happen?"

Xiaolan muttered to herself.

Seeing that she was quite calm, Winnett may have exercised the courage to face cases with Mori Kogoro and Conan. To be honest, she didn't want Xiao Ai to have the same experience.

Although it is inevitable that it will be involved in the death of people within the organization, Xiao Ai, as a researcher, should not have much contact.

Ayako's face was pale, her brows were tightly frowned and twisted into a ball, her whole face was trembling slightly.

"It's all my fault, it's my fault for planning this class reunion...it's all my fault!"

Ayako covered her face with her hands and said in a sobbing voice.

Sonoko pressed Ayako's shoulder to comfort her, and Kakutani, who was standing in front of Ayako, also comforted her, "Don't say that, Ayako. It's not your fault."

"The fault is that weird man with bandages who actually took Zhijiazi away from our eyes. He is a murderer...Damn it!"

"What to do, what if he attacks again?"

Sonoko lowered his eyes and muttered uneasily.

"As long as the doors and windows are closed, there will be no problem." Katsuo Ota narrowed his eyes and shrugged his shoulders, pretending to be indifferent, "Who told Chikako to hang out so late, it's all her own fault."

"All in all, everyone forget about it and go to bed early."

Ota said mercilessly, showing his distaste for Chikako.

"Ota! How could you be like this..."

Kakutani clenched his fists in anger at Ota Katsuki's statement.

Ayako, who didn't want to see the start of the dispute, hurriedly took the topic.

"That's right, it's very late now. Let's all confirm the portal again and go to sleep. We will go down the mountain at dawn tomorrow and report the matter to the police."

"Okay." Kakuya realized that he had lost his composure, but did not get angry.

After that, there was a mobilization meeting to check the doors and windows, and everyone was distributed to different areas to close the doors and windows.

"Then, Xiao Ai and I will check the windows of the public room on the second floor."

After separating from Xiaolan and the others, Xiao Ai expressed doubts again.

"How was that woman surnamed Ikeda taken away? We were all staying in the living room at the time, which means that the murderer couldn't have come upstairs from the stairs, but if he invaded through the window, that woman should have the same risk as me." The reaction was correct. At that time, Mr. Takahashi, who was repairing the roof, stayed on the second floor, how did he do it?"

"It should be like Mr. Ota said, she is the villa she left by herself."

"How could such a shrewd and arrogant woman run outside the house where there may be danger without a reason?"

Xiao Ai thought for a while, there should be some reason, otherwise it would not match her external image at all.

Winnet stroked Xiao Ai's hair, and said: "Maybe as you reasoned, she had some reason to leave the villa, but this is not what she should care about now...Since she was murdered outside the villa, it means that he There are scruples in the villa."

"That's true..." Xiao Ai nodded, "But the window in our room is broken."

"I've already talked to Ayako and moved to another room."

"when……"

——What a woman who couldn't take her eyes off her for a second.

"I'll emphasize it again later, after all, that weirdo with bandages may also break through the window like in the daytime."

Lock the last window, Winnet said to Xiao Ai.

"Since that's the case," Xiao Ai stared at Winnet with fishy eyes, "it would be safer for everyone to gather in the living room and take turns sleeping and keeping watch."

Winnet yawned, and said helplessly: "They are a little bit at war with each other, and Ayako is not in a good state of mind. Although this is a good proposal, it is difficult to realize."

"Humans are really troublesome creatures."

"Haha, you're right to complain, but this is also an interesting place."

--makes sense.

Xiao Ai rubbed her eyes.

"It's fine if it's like what you said. We are just a false target to confuse the view. The other party's real purpose has been achieved——I won't come to this villa again."

Winnet nodded with a "huh", pushed open the door of the room, turned on the light, and then checked the windows again.

"Winette, why don't you open the curtains?" Xiao Ai said a little uneasy, "If he really did something, we could find out earlier."

"Ah... Could it be? Xiao Ai, are you afraid?"

Winnet said, posing like a forest bear standing up, and howling in a low voice.

The next second, a white pillow flew over.

"Are you kidding me!" Winnet caught the pillow from the air.

Xiao Ai turned her back and began to change her pajamas. Maybe she was used to staying with Winnet or she didn't care about such things after becoming a child. When changing her pajamas, she didn't shy away from anything.

"Then you should catch it with your face and respond to my 'joke'."

Xiao Ai put on her purple pajama pants and sat on the edge of the bed.

Winnet suddenly felt that her mood was difficult to calm down, and there was a feeling that something that had been achieved with great difficulty was suddenly initialized.

Xiao Ai noticed Winnet's gaze and patted the bed.

"Why," Xiao Ai asked, "do you want to share a bed with me?"

As soon as Xiao Ai finished speaking, Winnet closed the curtains, holding a pillow in each hand, and walked to Xiao Ai's side.

"In my opinion, you should be the one who is afraid? How old are you, and you still have to share a bed with elementary school students?"

Xiao Ai said in a disdainful tone, but there was no dislike on her expression.

"Yeah, I'm scared." Winnet replied with a smile, "So I have to hold him tightly, and I won't let go in my dream."

"If you have the strength to say such nasty words, it's better to save the night to be on the lookout for that bandage monster."

Xiao Ai lay down on her side, with her back to Winnet.

"Don't worry, if he dares to come, let him experience the oppressive feeling of a real killer... Isn't it very dramatic to suddenly fall into despair?"

"Bad taste."

"Hey." Winnet lay down facing Xiao Ai.

"Don't turn your face at me, your ears are so itchy..." Xiao Ai turned her head and her eyes fell on Winnet's lips.

"so be it?"

Winnet opened the cup to a gap and made a gesture like an embrace.

Xiao Ai couldn't help taking a deep breath.

"You, do you know the consequences of doing this? Tsk, stuffing your face into two lumps of fat will only make it difficult to breathe."

"That's right, it's fine if you don't hide your face."

"Okay, okay, go to bed quickly, and save the tricks until next time."

"Then, good night."

Winnet turned off the light and stood still for a while, waiting for Xiao Ai to breathe steadily before gently closing her eyes.She suddenly recalled the days of training in the warehouse, her breathing and even her sleep were extremely shallow, and she could quickly switch from the state whenever there was a sign of trouble.Now is the time to get used to Xiao Ai's existence. After remembering the sound of breathing and rain, she slowly fell asleep.

Half an hour later, Winnet suddenly opened her eyes.

——There is movement.

The source of the unusual sound is the windowsill.

"It's strange," Winnet murmured in her heart. "The room has been changed. It stands to reason that that guy can't find us... Is the real target Xiao Ai?"

"A pervert who attacked a little girl?"

Winnet, who did not get her wish and hugged Xiao Ai to sleep, walked out of bed gently and stood behind the curtain.

Winnet held her breath and waited for the other party to throw herself into the trap, intending to capture the other party the moment he entered the room.

however--

boom!

The glass behind the curtain suddenly shattered. Although Winnet raised her arm to block it, she was still scratched on the side of her face by the glass. At the same time, Xiao Ai, who was still sleeping soundly, was awakened by this movement.

"Hmm..." Xiao Ai stared sleepily, "What's going on!?"

"Your face..." Awakened, Xiao Ai immediately turned on the light in the room and saw Winnett's appearance, "What happened... Forget it, compared to that..." The intention of asking did not last long, Xiao Ai could see that Winnet's cheek was just wiped by broken glass, and a little bit of blood oozes from the slender pink lines.

"I found it." Xiao Ai took out the disinfectant and gauze pieces from her carry-on luggage.

"It's really strange, I don't think I should have exposed any actions." Winnet murmured to herself.

"What exposure?" Xiao Ai came to Winnet with a tool, and held a cotton ball in her hand, "Bring your face closer, I can't reach it."

"When I heard the noise, I immediately got up and prepared to ambush the guy who was about to invade the room—probably the bandage monster, but he stopped cutting the glass halfway and broke the window instead. Because it was too sudden, I Didn't even go after it," Winnet explained.

In fact, she can chase after if she wants to, but she is really worried about leaving Xiao Ai alone.

"Isn't that why you were discovered by him?"

"Maybe..." Winnet replied with a forced smile.

"I think it's probably because of other reasons..." Xiao Ai couldn't find a convenient way to say it for a while, but in short, she couldn't make Winnet in front of her lose confidence, "You are like a ghost in that state, definitely not been discovered."

As soon as Xiao Ai finished speaking, there was a violent knock on the door.

"Miss Winnet, Miss Winnet! What happened!?"

Sonoko outside the door spoke eagerly, and she called Xiaolan and the others for courage, and asked Ayako to call other people—maybe the bandage monster came to attack again.

Then, Xiao Ai, who was halfway through the process, came to the door and opened it, and then said in a very calm tone: "Nothing happened, it's just that the window of the room was broken."

"Uh... Is that so? Maybe it was made by the bandage weirdo. I think it's better to call everyone over here." Seeing that Winnet had gauze on her face, Sonoko trembled again.

"Is she injured?" After Yuanzi went to call for someone, Conan asked Xiao Ai in surprise.

Xiao Ai gave Conan a white look, but did not answer his doubts, but helped Winnet stick the gauze.

"That bandage guy broke the window."

After everyone arrived, Xiao Ai explained.

"You were attacked by bandage monsters?"

Everyone expressed the same meaning with one voice.

"To be precise, before attacking us, he broke the window and escaped." Xiao Ai corrected.

"Are you all right?" Ayako stepped forward to greet.

Kakutani, who was watching from the side, murmured to himself suspiciously: "How did he get into the villa..."

"But this is the second floor, how did he get in?" Ota Katsuki opened the broken window, came to the balcony, and put one hand on the guardrail.

"This is the second time. I think he may have used the tree next to Chikako's room to climb up to the balcony."

"It's simply impossible to guard against."
