Chapter 672 Past Story
It has been almost a year since that accident.
On that day, a small party was held in this villa. In addition to Akira Masahara, the attendees included Yoshiki Hirasaka, Kazuo Park Noki, and the editor Zenan who was murdered half a month ago.
In the middle of the party, Ya Yuanhuang said he had something to do so he left early, but he didn't expect an accident to happen halfway and he and his car fell into the lake.
"Then, what happened to Mr. Zenan's murder?" Youye asked, supporting his chin with both hands.
Half a month ago, Mr. Zenan was stabbed to death at home. The person who found the body was Akiko Utakura, who said she went to discuss Zenan about her upcoming appearance on the cover of a magazine.
Yagawa Hiroshi said with a gossipy look on his face, "Generally speaking, this kind of thing is the responsibility of the editorial department, right?"
Maori Kogoro burped and said with empty eyes: "In other words, the two of them are very likely dating?"
Yagawa Hiroshi nodded in agreement.
Of course, some bold guesses are just for everyone to keep in mind, there is no need to speak them out.
Yuya asked, "What about the KIRA left by the victim?"
Yagawa Hiroshi scratched his cheek and said, "I don't know the details..." Then he took out his cell phone and said, "Why don't we just ask Ms. Akiko to come over? After all, she is the person involved."
"Uh, there's no need to be like this..." Youye wanted to stop him, but unexpectedly, Yagawa Hiroji was quick and the call was already made.
I heard that some stars and idols pay great attention to maintaining their appearance.
"Hello, Ms. Akiko, it's me, Yagawa. Kamiya-kun said he wanted to ask you some questions about Mr. Zenan. Is that okay?"
Youye smiled awkwardly. It was so late, it was not good to disturb others' rest, right? He wanted to stop it...
"Ah? Is that so? All right then."
Yagawa Hiroshi hung up the phone, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Ms. Akiko seems to be feeling a little unwell."
Maori Kogoro burped and said with a red face: "Why don't we just let the police handle the case?"
Youya smiled and said, "I just heard about the case and became curious out of habit."
Yagawa Hiroshi smiled and said, "As expected of a famous high school detective."
Youya smiled embarrassedly: "No, the rumors outside are too exaggerated..." He glanced around and suddenly noticed Izumi Maho, who was sitting at the edge in silence, with her head down, her hands under her feet, and her body still trembling slightly.
A hint of confusion flashed across Yuya's face - what was she afraid of? Was it the séance just now?
But it was obviously a prank, right?
Kogoro Maori curled his lips, made a snort, and took a big gulp of beer.
At this time, Mao Lilan suddenly said with some fear: "Is it possible that Miss Xiao Huang is not dead but alive?"
Hiroshi Yagawa frowned slightly: "Although the police found Miss Xiaohuang's body until the end, the car that was salvaged had been completely deformed..." The implication was that if the car had become like that, how could the people sitting inside have survived?
He suddenly thought of something: "Come to think of it, I have seen unfounded rumors on the Internet."
"rumor?"
Yagawa Hiroshi nodded and continued, "It is said that Miss Xiaohuang actually died due to an unexpected incident at the party. In order to conceal the truth, the body was hidden by Mr. Hirasaka."
"It's hidden under the floorboards of the meditation room."
Mao Lilan's face turned pale: "It's a lie, isn't it?"
Yuya smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's just a rumor."
Mifune Ryuichi suddenly said, "Yakawa, you don't know that the rumor was actually spread by Ke'er, right?"
"Huh? Is this true?" Hiroji Yagawa looked at Ryuichi Mifune in surprise.
Mifune Ryuichi took a sip of beer and said, "That guy Ke'er has been following Miss Xiaohuang like a paparazzi, so he knows very well that she usually drives very carefully. He doesn't believe that she would have an accident on a road like that, so..."
Yagawa Hiroshi suddenly realized: "I see, this is indeed something he would do."
Yuya glanced at Izumi Maho, who was still in a state of fear, and touched his chin thoughtfully.
···
into the night,
Yuya and Miyano Shiho were lying on the bed and whispering to each other.
Miyano Shiho poked Yuya's chest with her finger and said, "I wonder if the food left in the morning will be enough for Dango to eat."
Youye grabbed her soft little hand and said, "Don't worry, Tuanzi is so smart, if she doesn't have enough food, she will go to the kitchen to find it herself."
Miyano Shiho thought of how human-like the dumpling was. If she wasn't a materialistic scientist, she would have suspected that it was a little monster.
"It's getting late, let's go to bed early." Youye said softly.
Miyano Shiho nodded, snuggled into Yuya's arms, closed her eyes and began to fall asleep.
"Boom boom boom!"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Um, sorry to bother you, Mr. Kamiya." A somewhat weak voice sounded outside the door.
Yuya and Miyano Shiho sat up from the bed and looked at each other in confusion.
Yuya got out of bed and walked over to open the door. Seeing Izumi Maho fully dressed and showing no sign of sleeping, he asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Izumi Maho clasped her hands in front of her and said weakly, "I'm sorry to bother you so late, but... I just went to Miss Akiko's room, and she wasn't there."
"Ms. Jingzi?" Youye was stunned, and suddenly a bad premonition arose in his heart.
Izumi Maho said: "Because she said she was not feeling well, I wanted to go see her before going to bed, but I found that she was not in the room..."
She took out her cell phone: "He hasn't come back yet, and I can't get through to him. It seems to be turned off..."
Miyano Shiho frowned slightly. What was going on with this strong smell of incident? Wasn't today a smooth day?
Youya thought about it and said: "Then we..."
"Ding ding ding!" Suddenly, Izumi Maho's cell phone rang.
Izumi Maho was stunned for a moment: "This is from Miss Akiko... Hey, what is this?"
Yuya quickly leaned over to look at the phone screen, and his pupils shrank slightly - he saw a message displayed on the screen, and the content was...
I will be resurrected here.
The signature is KIRA written in a pseudonym.
"Bang!" The door of the next room was knocked open, and Yagawa Hiroshi ran out in a panic. Seeing Yuya and the others, he quickly ran over and pointed his phone at them: "I just received a strange message!"
Yuya took a look and found that the content of the message was exactly the same as the one received by Izumi Maho, and the sender was the same.
Yuya frowned and was about to say something when Mao Li Ran and Conan also walked out of the room.
After hearing what had happened, Mao Lilan hurriedly woke up her old father, and everyone started looking for Utahara Akiko together.
