Science: The Little Shota of the Maori Family

Fujisawa Toshiaki finally couldn't help but slammed the table and stood up: "I can't stand it anymore, never mind, I'm going back to my room to sleep..."

"Mr. Fujisawa..."

Iwai Hitomi tried to dissuade them, but she overheard Toda Maria say, "It seems the rumor is true. People say that giving away the first edition is a big scam. They deliberately make the questions difficult so that no one can get them all right. Their goal is to show off the book to everyone."

As she said that, she stood up from her seat and yawned: "Sorry, I want to go back to my room too."

"Me too."

"Then I'll go back and rest."

In the blink of an eye, only Watanabe Toru and his group, as well as Ooki Ayako and Tojuken were left in the lounge.

Xiaolan looked at Watanabe Toru: "Xiao Toru, are you sleepy? Why don't you go back to your room and rest first?"

Watanabe Toru shook his head: "I'm not bothering Sister Xiaolan. Besides, I also want to know who will win in the end and get the first edition of "A Study in Scarlet"."

"Okay, then if you feel sleepy, tell your sister."

"Uh-huh."

Everyone stayed in the lounge for a while.

Just when everyone was about to fall asleep, Hu Shiyan suddenly pointed out the window in surprise and said, "Look outside, is that the boss driving?"

Ooki Ayako stood up and looked outside: "Yes, it's really the boss."

"Haha, I told you, the reasoning quiz will start soon." Hu Shiyan was very excited.

The car slid forward at an extremely slow speed.

Suddenly, Hattori Heiji seemed to realize something, climbed over the window and ran towards the car.

Inside the house, Maori Kogoro also felt something was wrong: "Hey, hey, hey, there seems to be a cliff ahead, boss, why isn't he stopping?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the car sliding towards the cliff without hesitation, falling off the cliff and sinking into the surging waves, emitting a burst of fire, illuminating the dark sky.

……

The news that Hiroyuki Kanaya's car fell off a cliff quickly alarmed everyone in the hotel. When they heard the news, everyone looked incredulous.

"Is this...is this an accident?" someone in the crowd asked.

"No, he could have been murdered." Tojukento offered a different opinion: "We just need to knock him out or kill him first, and then secure him to the chair to achieve the same effect, right?"

"You mean the murderer is among us?" asked Maria Toda.

"Well, that should be the case." Hu Juyan pushed his glasses and said confidently.

Hattori Heiji questioned, "Then why did the car suddenly accelerate midway? And one thing is strange. When I tried to stop Mr. Kanaya, I heard a strange sound like wind coming from inside the car. I'm sure it wasn't the sound of the engine."

"I think that must be the sound of the air conditioner. If it is not turned off, the air conditioner will work as soon as the engine is started." said Ikuo Kawazu.

· ········Request flowers·· ·········

Maori Kogoro sighed: "In short, his body can't be found. Now we can only call the police and wait for them to deal with it."

"But our phones were taken away by the boss." Ikuo Kawazu frowned.

Iwai Hitomi interrupted, "I think the phone must be in the boss's room. I'll go get it now."

As he said that, he ran towards the hotel.

Hattori Heiji squatted on the ground, looking at the tire tracks left by the car, pinching his chin with his hand, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

Not long after, Iwai Hitomi, who had returned to the hotel to get a phone, ran out and shouted to everyone, "Oh no, everyone! All the phones are destroyed, and even the original edition is missing."

.... ..... 0

"What!" Everyone's face changed drastically.

In Kanaya Hiroyuki's room, the floor was a mess, everyone's phones were smashed to pieces, and the safe was open, but there was nothing inside.

Fujisawa Toshiaki gritted his teeth and said, "I really can't stand it anymore. I want to drive my other car and leave here."

"It's no use." Hattori Heiji, who was outside inspecting the scene, walked in with a look of regret on his face. "The car in the garage has a hole in its fuel tank. All the fuel has leaked out, and the battery is dead. The car can't be moved at all now. It's become a pile of scrap metal."

"No...that can't be." Fujisawa Toshiaki looked incredulous.

Tojuken laughed twice: "It seems that the boss was indeed killed."

Hattori Heiji remained noncommittal: "Judging from the fact that the murderer destroyed the phone and isolated us, it seems that the murderer still wants to continue this killing spree."

Maori Kogoro agreed: "The murderer must be one of us. If we investigate carefully, we will definitely find out."

Kawazu Ikuo suddenly interrupted, "I remember, isn't there surveillance cameras installed everywhere in this hotel? Maybe they'll capture some clues."

"Yes, we can start the investigation from this aspect."

Someone agreed immediately.

"Um..." Iwai Hitomi looked embarrassed: "Actually, the surveillance cameras here are all fake, just props."

200. Another one died

Iwai Hitomi's words disappointed everyone.

At this time, Ooki Ayako walked towards Hattori Heiji and whispered in his ear, "By the way, did you find the one you were looking for just now?"

Hattori Heiji looked at Ooki Ayako in surprise and shook his head: "No."

"Really?" Oki Ayako suddenly burst into laughter. "Everyone, I already know who the murderer is. I also have conclusive evidence about his methods."

"What?" Everyone was surprised.

Oki Ayako raised the corner of her mouth and said meaningfully, "As for the murderer, I can give you ten minutes to think about it. If you don't want to hear your name from my mouth, then bow your head and confess your guilt."

After saying that, he prepared to leave the room.

Tojuken called out to her, "Ayako, where are you going?"

"Go to the bathroom '750'."

"Don't act rashly. It's dangerous for you to act alone like this. What if you run into the murderer?"

Ooki Ayako looked back at him: "You should protect me."

"Wait... wait a minute." Hu Juyan hurriedly followed.

"Sister Xiaolan." Watanabe Toru pulled Xiaolan's hand and yawned: "I'm sleepy."

Xiaolan looked at the time and exclaimed, "It's already so late, Dad. Xiaoche and I will go back to the room first."

Maori Kogoro nodded and reminded: "Remember to lock the doors and windows."

"Know it."

The two returned to the room. After checking all the doors and windows, Xiaolan lay down on the bed with peace of mind and said to Watanabe Toru, "I'm sorry, Xiao Toru, I've let you encounter this kind of thing again."

"No." Watanabe Toru pressed against Xiaolan, sniffing the faint fragrance on her body: "No one could have predicted that something like this would happen, and besides, uncle will definitely catch the murderer."

"Yeah." Xiaolan was also very confident in her father: "By the way, Miss Ayako, it seems that the murderer has been identified..."

Oh, that woman will be dead soon, Watanabe Toru thought to himself.

He had no intention of helping her at all. To him, the more people died, the more points he would get in the end.

……

After an unknown amount of time, a loud explosion woke the two people who were sleeping.

Xiaolan looked at Watanabe Toru, who had already opened his eyes, with a bewildered look on her face. "Toru, was it just now..."

"Yeah, that's the sound of an explosion." Watanabe Toru looked serious. Suddenly, he pointed in the direction of the window and said, "Sister Xiaolan, look..."

Although blocked by curtains, the blazing firelight was still reflected.

"Is it on fire?"

Xiaolan quickly got out of bed, walked to the window, and opened the curtains. Her expression instantly turned to surprise. She turned around and said to Watanabe Toru, "Xiao Toru, the garage seems to be on fire."

Watanabe Toru had already jumped off the bed, looked at the window, and said, "Sister Xiaolan, let's go down and take a look."

"it is good."

Xiaolan was also worried about her father's condition, nodded, and hurried downstairs with Watanabe Toru.

In front of the garage outside the hotel.

Everyone finally put out the fire with a fire extinguisher. Faced with this sudden situation, everyone's face looked extremely ugly.

"Dad." Xiaolan and Watanabe Toru ran over and asked Maori Kogoro: "What happened?"

Maori Kogoro said in a deep voice: "The car parked in the garage suddenly exploded, and Miss Ayako was unfortunately killed..."

"How...how could this happen? Miss Ayako was fine not long ago..."

Upon hearing the bad news, Xiaolan murmured in disbelief.

Maria Toda's face was solemn. "So, Miss Ayako once said she knew who the murderer was... Could it be that... the murderer killed Miss Ayako to silence her?"

Kawazu Ikuo pondered, "But when the explosion happened, except for Xiaolan and little Watanabe who were resting in the room, the rest of us were in the boss's room. Who killed Miss Ayako? The car wouldn't explode for no reason."

"No, there's another person," Fujisawa Toshiaki suddenly interrupted. Under everyone's puzzled gaze, he said, "It's the hotel owner. If the owner whose car and people fell off the cliff is still alive, then everything makes sense, doesn't it?"

Toshiaki Fujisawa's words were recognized by Maria Toda: "You're right. If there was a dummy sitting in the car..."

"No, no, no." Hattori Heiji interrupted, "It was indeed the boss sitting in the car at that time. I was absolutely not mistaken about this."

"Then who do you think did it?" Tojuken suddenly roared, "Ayako was clearly murdered to silence her..."

"In short, at least one thing is certain: the murderer is not among us." Maori Kogoro said: "Now, let's go in and rest first. We can talk about other things after dawn."

In the current environment, there was really nothing they could do, so the group could only return to the hotel's living room.

It started to rain heavily outside, accompanied by rumbling thunder, adding a layer of hazy mystery to this murder case...

“It’s raining so hard…”

Maria Toda looked out the window and sighed softly, "Even if it's daybreak, there's no way I can get out."

Maori Kogoro yawned: "Two incidents happened in a row, making me sleepy and hungry now."

Iwai Hitomi quickly said, "Then I'll go get some coffee or cold drinks."

Xiaolan volunteered: "I'll come and help too."

"I'll come too." Kawazu Ikuo said, "We're all girls, it would be troublesome if we get into danger."

"In that case, I'll go with you." Hu Juyanren regained his composure and stood up.

The rest of the group stayed in the living room. Maria Toda held her face with her hands, looking confused as she said, "If the murderer was really the hotel owner, why did he pretend to be dead? And even kill Miss Ayako?"

At this moment, Fujisawa Toshiaki suddenly slammed the table and stood up, his expression hesitant and hesitant. He pulled a card from his pocket and said to everyone, "Look at this. If something hadn't gone wrong, I would be the one who died."

Kogoro Mouri took the card from Fujisawa Toshiaki in confusion, and his face suddenly changed after seeing the content on it.

"If you want that book, come to the garage tomorrow morning. It's under the back seat."

"Five o'clock?" Hattori Heiji came over and took the card. "I remember the explosion happened at about four-thirty. If it was in the back seat of the car, wouldn't that be where Miss Ayako's body was? Mr. Fujisawa, where did you get this card?"

Fujisawa Toshiaki said with a grim expression, "It got stuck in the crack of my door when I was returning to my room after dinner yesterday."

201. Hattori Heiji's Unbelievable Story

"Could it be that……"

Hattori Heiji seemed to have thought of something and rubbed his chin.

But at this moment, there was a snap, and the room fell into darkness.

"What's going on? Is there a power outage?"

"No, it could be that the fuse is blown."

"Damn it, the power goes out at a time like this."

In the darkness, Fujisawa Toshiaki took out a lighter and lit it, preparing to go to the circuit breaker to check the situation.

Little did he know that a dark shadow quietly approached him, raised the ice cone in his hand, and stabbed it towards Fujisawa Toshiaki.

"what--"

There were screams, followed by the sound of glass breaking.
