"Oh? There are three other people besides us?"

"Yes, there were also two boys and a lady. Mr. Hattori and Mr. Kudo declined the invitation because they had other commitments."

"Who is the other lady?"

"It's me." A woman wearing a long white suit jacket walked out from behind, she was wearing gloves and holding a bottle of spray.

"Long time no see, Ms. Ikumi Gunda," Hakuba Saguru greeted her.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Her eyebrows were slightly raised, and her narrow eyeliner gave her a cool and glamorous look.

"Ms. Gunda is a former prosecutor from the Metropolitan Police Department," Hakuba Saguru introduced her to everyone with a smile.

Ikumi Gunda glanced around, her beautiful eyes finally settling on Fuu Akatsuki.

"You must be the renowned Lord Akatsukaze."

"I heard you're now a senior advisor to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department."

Chi Chufeng smiled slightly, "It's just a small favor I did on the side."

Seeing that Akatsuka was attracting the attention of beautiful women, Mogi Harufumi felt a little jealous. He asked the maid, "Now that everyone is almost here, when will your master come out?"

A group of people had been there for so long, but they had only seen this one maid; the master who had invited them had not shown up.

"No need to ask, she has no idea who the master is," Chi Chufeng said casually.

"Huh? No way." Everyone looked at the maid with surprise.

The maid was also very surprised: "How did you know? I really haven't seen the master yet."

"Huh? Didn't I tell you to send out the invitations?" Harufumi Mogi asked.

"I got that list during the maid interview. But that interview was really weird."

Chapter 475 I'm so excited!

"Strange?" Upon hearing this word, everyone looked at her.

The maid carefully recalled the situation and slowly recounted what had happened.

"Because the job offered very good compensation, there were a lot of people applying for it. But when I walked into the interview room, I found that there was no one there."

"There was only a computer and a banquet instruction manual in the room, along with a guest list on the table,"

"I went through the files according to the instructions on the computer, and then suddenly a sound came out and the words 'You have been hired' appeared on the computer screen."

So you're saying you didn't know why you were accepted back then?

White Horse rested his chin on his hand, his eyes showing increasing interest.

"Yes. I communicate with my master through phone and email, so I don't know who my master is or what he looks like."

"This is quite interesting. I suddenly feel a little eager to try it out."

Bai Ma glanced at Chi Chufeng with a hint of unease.

The detectives present seemed to sense the undercurrents hidden behind the scenes, and their expressions became excited.

"This is really great. There are more and more mysteries at this banquet. I was so excited when I saw that weird handle on the door." Mogi Harufumi smiled.

When he mentioned the doorknob, everyone turned to look at the door.

There were some marks on the door, but the light was dim, and it was hard to tell what they were.

“Not just the doorknobs!” Gunda Ikumi sprayed the spray in her hand onto the stair railing. She slightly shielded her eyes from the light, and specks of fluorescence emanated from the railing.

"I think those are probably bloodstains left from 40 years ago."

“Besides the bloodstains on the door, there were bloodstains on the walls, bloodstains on the floor, and even some furniture was stained with blood.”

"Although they had been wiped clean at the time, there are traces of blood on almost every part of this villa."

"This is wonderful! It was worth the long trip back to China. To be able to uncover the secret hidden beneath this mansion for 40 years... Just thinking about it makes me extremely excited!"

There was a light in Hakuba Saguru's eyes.

Looking at this dimly lit villa, it's like seeing a very attractive modern woman.

Chi Chufeng glanced at the group of smug detectives indifferently, without saying a word.

This villa has a slightly eerie feel to it, especially when viewed through the Eye of Space, where wisps of black energy can be seen rising everywhere.

But in the blink of an eye, it disappeared again, which was very strange.

This villa is probably more than just a house of gold.

Chi Chufeng perked up.

With some time before dinner, the detectives all went out to explore the surrounding area, hoping to uncover the secrets of this annex.

Chi Chufeng was also wandering around.

Just as I reached the corner, I saw Kaito Kid dressed as Kogoro Mouri, so I waved to him.

Kaito Kid quickly came over.

"Lord Chichu, what brings you here?"

Chi Chufeng laughed, "Phantom Thief Kid, you actually dare to meet me?"

Kaito Kid thought to himself, "He really knew."

He quickly put on a smiling face and said, "I even called to ask beforehand, and only dared to come after I found out you weren't on the list. If I had known you were here, I wouldn't have dared to come even if you gave me a million lives."

Seeing his pitiful state, Chi Chufeng didn't bother to scare him.

"Alright, as long as you don't mess with me, I'm too lazy to bother with you. But what brings you here this time? There are no jewel thieves here."

Hearing what Chi Chufeng said, Kaito Kid breathed a sigh of relief.

"Because someone is using my name to hire famous detectives everywhere, I stole Detective Mori's invitation and came here to see what's going on here."

Chi Chufeng waved his hand, "Go ahead and investigate. Let me see anything you find first."

Kaito Kid reluctantly agreed.

This guy comes when summoned and goes when dismissed; it feels like he's become a lackey of an Onmyoji.

0 ......... .......

The entire villa covers a huge area. When viewed from above, it has a square, circular layout with a courtyard of moderate size in the center.

Chi Chufeng is currently on the third floor. All the detectives' bedrooms are on the third floor, but they are located in different parts of the corridor and are quite far apart from each other.

He strolled around the corridor; all the rooms were locked, but that couldn't stop the Eye of Space.

Walking along the corridor, Chi Chufeng could constantly feel a cunning gaze coming from behind him.

Someone is monitoring us through a camera.

Chi Chufeng ignored her and went to the fourth floor of the villa.

The layout of the fourth floor is roughly the same as that of the third floor, and there are also some miniature cameras. Dark stains can be seen from time to time on the scarlet carpet.

According to Ikumi Gunda's previous statement, this could be blood.

The situation is the same on the third floor; most of the doors are locked.

Chi Chufeng finally pushed open the door to one of the rooms.

Of course, before that, the surveillance was blocked using an illusion.

Chapter 476 I Discovered the Great Secret Here

The room wasn't furnished much; it was just like the interview scene the maid had described, with only a computer on the table and a chair.

The computer is powered on, and an input box is maximized on the desktop.

Chi Chufeng tried typing a few letters on it, but nothing changed; it just looked like an ordinary page.

There is an exquisite raven pattern on the inside door handle of the room.

Chi Chufeng used his spatial eye to observe the doorknob and indeed discovered something suspicious.

There is a tiny hole on the side of the door handle. If you turn the door handle, a needle will pop out of the hole and pierce the palm of the person opening the door.

Of course, this alone is not enough to be fatal; what is truly deadly is that it is coated with a deadly poison.

Chi Chufeng used his mind to turn the doorknob and left the room.

Continuing forward, Chi Chufeng stopped at the corner of the corridor.

The magic of prediction told him that something strange was going on here.

He looked up at the ceiling and used his spatial vision to penetrate it.

This ceiling was originally a hidden compartment, controlled by a mechanism concealed in the window frame.

Pull the lever, the latch opens automatically, and a folding ladder is released from top to bottom.

Chi Chufeng climbed the ladder to the hidden space at the top, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
