While the two were talking, Conan suddenly rushed into it, checking back and forth on the balcony behind the broken glass.

—— Strange, how could there be no mud.

——It's raining outside, if you really climbed up from the tree, there should be mud left.Also, why did the bandage monster just destroy this window, but didn't attack Miss Winnet and Huiyuan inside?Moreover, he didn't attack Xiaolan either.

——Is it specifically to pick girls?

"Maybe this bandage monster will continue to be active in the future. Let's gather in the living room and wait until dawn."

Kakutani's proposal was unanimously approved, and Xiao Ai felt that it was time to do so. After all, there was an experience of bandage monsters invading through the window during the day, but it was strange to repeat the same trick on the same target.

"If the prisoner picks girls to kill, isn't it easy to get the girl who chooses to live with you?" Xiao Ai leaned on Conan's side and asked.

"Xiaolan, she is..." Conan couldn't help trembling when he thought of Xiaolan imitating kicking the 'disappearing Kudo Shinichi'.

"But the murderer didn't know she practiced karate."

"Well, at present, we don't know the purpose of his attacking you and Xiaolan...It's strange to break the glass but not attack you, it's like showing us."

"Isn't it the job of the police to arrest perverted murderers?"

Xiao Ai asked back.

……

273 Detectives Are Useless

Not long after he walked out of the room, Conan ran into Suzuki Sonoko who was holding a blanket and was about to go to the living room, and found that she was holding something unexpected in her hand.

"Sister Ayako, isn't that worn by Sister Chikako around her neck?" Conan asked, pointing to the collar on Ayako's hand.

"That's right, it's worn by Chikako." Ayako explained, "When the bandage monster took Chikako out and you chased him out, I saw it fall in the entrance, so I picked it up."

Conan was lost in thought.

When the Bandage Man was holding Chikako and passed by the window on the first floor, the collar was still on her body, so how could it have fallen in the entrance?

If Chikako was attacked inside the villa...

"Edogawa, did you think of anything?"

Conan was awakened by Xiao Ai's question.

He lowered his head slightly, the lenses in front of his eyes seemed to reflect light.

"That's right, Huiyuan."

"Ok?"

"Did anything special happen when you and Miss Winnet arrived at this villa?"

— something special?

Xiao Ai sighed, listening to Conan's tone, it seemed that she thought there was a reason for her being attacked by the bandage monster, it's a pity, she thought to herself.

"No. However, Winnet said that she seems to have seen the figure of the bandage monster. Although it is very common for her to see wrongly, she should be right."

"That's not what I asked, I mean, have you had any special contact with those people in this villa?" Conan gave an example, as if he happened to see something.

"No."

"You think again."

Xiao Ai became a little impatient when she saw Winnet coming out with the clothes in the luggage.

"If I have to say it, I accidentally opened a door when I came here, but because I opened it by mistake, I closed it immediately." After Xiao Ai finished speaking, she followed Winnet, "Hurry up too. Living room."

Conan rubbed his chin and followed Xiao Ai back to the living room. Everyone was really terrified, and they sat at the same table in silence.

"I really don't know what that bandage monster is thinking," Kakutani complained a little bit, "not only killed Chikako, but also attacked Xiaolan in the forest, and broke into the room of the little sister and Winnet twice. !"

"I think he will definitely kill us all!" Takahashi rubbed his hands, thumbs up, and looked at the table uneasily.

"what?"

Sonoko was startled by his words.

"No way?" Xiaolan also muttered to herself.

The atmosphere fell into a low mood again.

"Really, Xiaolan, when you were attacked by him, why didn't you use karate to deal with him!" Sonoko said to Xiaolan who shrank, "It's not like you at all."

Xiao Lan rubbed her hands between her buttocks, and replied shyly: "But there is no way, I just can't do anything with monsters or ghosts."

——This is just an ordinary girl!

Winnet felt cute while listening, probably because she has become a species different from "ordinary girls", so this feeling is very deep.

"Oh, it's so cute." Winnet took out a cross rosary from her arms and handed it to Xiaolan, "It doesn't matter, God will bless innocent and kind girls."

—God never said such a thing, did he?

Conan, who has been influenced by Xiao Ai's language, feels a crisis.

"How can this be, I can't accept such expensive things."

Xiaolan was a little shy at first, but after seeing the cross, she became a little terrified, because the rosary beads are embedded with brightly colored crystals, which already belong to the category of jewelry.

"Actually, it's just glass...but I'm quite confident in the effect of exorcising evil spirits."

Conan suddenly felt that Winnett's image collapsed, and she became the kind of door-to-door salesman of a dubious religion.

"Exorcism..." Xiao Lan slowly took the rosary into her hand.

Facing ghosts scares her more than accepting gifts.

"However, it should be useless against bandage monsters, right?" Sonoko was skeptical about the effect of the rosary, "Although the dress is scary, he is still a human... right?"

Yuanzi's unconfident judgment of the bandage man made Xiaolan tremble even more, and she clenched her rosary tightly.

——Why does it feel like Sonoko is trying to scare Xiaolan on purpose?

——Ah, I understand, I understand, it’s fun to scare cute girls, but unfortunately, the things that scare Xiao Ai are too deep, if you don’t grasp the level, you will be scolded ugly!

——Oh, a lot of fun is lost all of a sudden.

Winnet gave Sonoko a thumbs up in her heart.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, if that bandage man dares to show up, I will deal with him." Winnet suggested confidently.

What she said was to make Xiaolan and the others accept the fact that she was actually very powerful.

"Miss Winnet, are you?" Sonoko was very surprised. Although she had always heard that Winnet was good at martial arts, she had never seen it with her own eyes. She felt that she could not be compared with Xiaolan who was able to win the first place in the karate competition.

"Well, don't look at me like this, I used to knock down seven or eight gangsters with knives in a row!"

Seeing the astonishment of the people around her, Xiao Ai gave Winnet a sneaky look.

Although others felt that Winnett's words were exaggerated, Xiao Ai didn't think so.

——She still said it too conservatively. It was obvious that she was facing dozens of dangerous elements with guns alone, and she was not on the same level as the gangsters.

"It's really dangerous abroad..." Xiaolan sighed, seeming to believe what Winnet said.

Conan's jaw is about to dislocate.

No wonder there is such an amazing speed...

——Why are there violent or eighty-year-old women around me? (Yuanzi:?)

"Miss Winnet's eyesight is bad, so it's too dangerous to meet gangsters." Ota stood up halfway through speaking, and said with a light smile, "However, you don't need to worry too much."

He made a half circle around the table and came between Winnet and Xiaolan.

"There is only one bandage man, but we have seven here. No matter how powerful he is, he can't be our opponent."

Katsugo Ota wanted to put his hands on Ran and Winette's shoulders.

"Wow!"

Ota Katsuki fell to the ground all of a sudden.

Xiao Ai and Conan slipped quietly to each side, kicking Ota Katsuki.

"Ah, ah, it hurts!"

Ota sat on the ground and hugged his feet, and said angrily, "What are you two brats doing?"

"Correction, not seven, but nine."

Xiao Ai said coldly with a blank face.

Conan also looked unhappy, nodded and said "That's right".

"You two are brats, so you can't count at all!"

Ota Katsuki was embarrassed to get angry at the two who looked like children, but just looked at them with a displeased face.

"That's not the case. Conan threw it out the moment he heard the window shatter, and rushed to save me when he was in the forest before." Xiaolan retorted Ota and turned to look at Conan with a smile.

"Yeah, Xiao Ai also skillfully bandaged my wound." Winnet followed suit.

"Such a far-fetched compliment is unnecessary."

It's not unhappy, but it sounds weird, almost like an add-on.

Xiao Ai replied dissatisfied.

——If you don’t boast, you can shut up.

At this time, Conan came to her side and asked in a low voice, "Why is he still crying on the ground?"

"Ah, isn't your target the ulnar nerve groove? I just wanted to say that we cooperated pretty well."

"Uh……"

- Never mess with her.

Conan thought to himself once a day.

However, why did she defend Winnet so much, just because the relationship between the two is better?

Maybe it's like the relationship between Suzuki and Xiaolan now, Conan thought.As early as when Ota invited Xiaolan to take a walk in the rain, he was already very upset, and the other party left Xiaolan alone in the forest. This time, he took the opportunity to teach him a lesson.

"Vinegar jar..." Seeing Conan's unfriendly gaze towards Ota, Xiao Ai said.

"Speak up."

If Conan knew a little more, he could say "you are not the same".

After Ota's episode came to an end, Sonoko asked Xiaolan again: "Xiaolan, when you were attacked in the forest, did you see the face of that weird man with bandages?"

Xiao Lan shook her head.

Winette said suddenly: "Although I don't know the face, I can guess the approximate body shape. Judging from his physical ability, at least he is someone who is usually exercising. Judging from the core area of ​​the broken glass, his height It fluctuates around 1.7 meters... In addition, he chose an ax as a weapon, which shows that he is not thin and thin, and his weight is at a medium level."

Conan had seen the bandaged man when Xiaolan was attacked, and had a rough idea of ​​his size.

Taking advantage of the silence of the crowd, he secretly took down the camera next to Kakutani.

——Sure enough, the camera captured the scene at that time.

Conan reconfirmed that Zhijiazi, who was kidnapped by the bandage monster at that time, was wearing a collar.

This means that the scene where Zhijiazi was kidnapped was inside the villa, and it is very likely that the bandaged man is one of the three men, but if this is inferred, there is a fatal problem.When the bandage man carried Chikako through the window on the first floor, everyone stayed inside the villa, and there was no chance of committing a crime.

--How did that happen?

Conan put the camera on the stool. At this time, Ayako, who was suffering from the atmosphere, planned to make coffee to relieve everyone's fatigue.

"Before sister Chikako was killed, was sister Ayako the last person to see her?"

"Yes."

"Is there anything wrong with her at that time?"

Suzuki Ayako suddenly remembered, and said: "By the way, Chikako seemed to be looking at something that looked like a letter stuck in the crack of the door at that time, and her expression changed immediately after reading it."

Conan is more convinced that the murderer is the person in the villa.

Chikako was called outside by the letter, so the other party's slippers are at the back door. Not only that, if she goes out secretly through the back door, the person who sent the letter must have caught her. In other words, it must be One of the members of the Film Research Society.

However, there was still something he couldn't figure out.
