Yuko Aoyama trembled all over, but there was no turning back now, so she could only stab Tomie Kawakami twice.
That way, we're all in the same boat.
"No one is allowed to tell anyone about this, or we'll all die together." Dr. Aoyama held those beautiful feet, his face contorted with madness.
Just then, a blizzard started outside.
"Thank goodness! We took advantage of the blizzard to bury the body. It might be hundreds of years before the police find it."
Under the cover of the blizzard, Dr. Aoyama and the innkeeper dragged the remaining corpses and buried them in the snow.
They then quickly returned.
Then pretend nothing happened.
The innkeeper placed the obtained head under his bed, intending to live with the beautiful head after the detective left.
Soon it was time for lunch.
As always, the boss prepared lunch for everyone.
During dinner, Conan asked curiously, "Where's Tomie? Why didn't she come to eat?"
Dr. Aoyama and Yuko Aoyama froze, immediately lowering their heads to pretend to eat, unaware that their clumsy acting could not escape the eyes of the two famous detectives.
Without Tomie Kawakami's interference, Heiji Hattori's reasoning skills returned to normal.
"Miss Tomie said it was no fun here and has already left," the innkeeper said calmly.
"That's unlikely, isn't it? It's freezing outside, how far could a girl go? And she doesn't even have any winter clothes on her," Conan asked.
"I don't know, she's just a strange person." The innkeeper ladled out a bowl of soup and handed it to Conan.
Compared to the hotel owner's composure, Dr. Aoyama was flustered and could only grab a newspaper and pretend to read it.
"Doctor, are you very hot? Your forehead is covered in sweat." Conan looked at Dr. Aoyama with a smile.
Dr. Aoyama immediately put on a fake smile: "Indeed, the room is a bit hot. Thank you for your concern, little brother."
Conan handed over a tissue, and when Dr. Aoyama took the tissue, Conan clearly saw a red stain under Dr. Aoyama's fingernail.
Conan's pupils contracted; he couldn't be mistaken, it was definitely congealed blood.
An ominous premonition arose in Conan's mind.
"But that woman shouldn't be harmed, right? Her identity is extraordinary. However, she's really courting death; it wouldn't be surprising if she were killed and dismembered," Conan muttered to himself.
As we ate lunch, the wind and snow outside grew heavier, and the owner served everyone meat soup.
Finally, the innkeeper served himself a bowl, and just as he was about to take a sip, he suddenly saw a human eyeball in the bowl, staring straight at him.
He screamed in terror and threw the bowl he was holding away.
"What happened?" Dr. Aoyama shouted.
Everyone else was also frightened by the hotel owner, but after he calmed down, he realized that there were no human eyes in the soup he had splashed out.
"Oh no, am I hallucinating? After all, it's my first time killing someone, the psychological pressure is too great." The innkeeper wiped his sweat lightly, then smiled and explained to everyone, "That bowl of soup is too hot, I'll go get a rag right now."
As he spoke, he went out into the corridor.
It was getting dark when the innkeeper glanced up and saw a human head lying horizontally at the end of the corridor, its two eyes staring straight at him.
The hotel owner's face turned ashen.
My legs felt like they were filled with lead.
At that moment, the human head smiled.
The innkeeper was trembling like a leaf. The cold wind made his lower body feel icy cold, and he had unknowingly wet himself in fear.
He couldn't possibly be mistaken; that head was definitely Tomie Kawakami's head.
But how can someone laugh when their head has been cut off?
and……
And that severed head should be in his room.
The hotel owner frantically returned to his room and searched under the bed.
As a result, the head disappeared.
Chapter 226: They've all gone mad, they've all gone mad!
When the hotel owner returned to the dining table, his face was filled with panic that he could no longer hide.
"I should have realized it sooner. How could such a perfect woman be human? She must be a monster living in the snowy mountains, a Yuki-onna? Or some other spirit?"
All of his reactions were observed by Conan and Heiji Hattori.
“Sir, you look very flustered. Has something happened? We are detectives, after all, and we can help you,” Hattori Heiji said.
He had a premonition that Ms. Tomie Kawakami, who had never appeared, might have been murdered.
"No, nothing's wrong, everyone, let's eat." The innkeeper hurriedly picked up his rice bowl.
But Dr. Aoyama, standing next to him, looked terrified.
Yuko Aoyama couldn't even eat a single bite of food.
People with strong mental fortitude are, after all, a minority.
Most people will inevitably show panic after committing murder.
This further convinced Conan and Heiji Hattori that there was something wrong with these three people.
"I suggest we search for Ms. Tomie Kawakami after we finish eating. It's freezing outside, and if she went out wearing only a dress, she could freeze to death in two or three hours," Conan suggested.
"No need," the doctor and the boss shouted at the same time.
"Gentlemen, if you let this happen, even if her death has nothing to do with you, you will be branded as 'failing to save someone in distress' for the rest of your lives. You must think this through," Conan said coldly.
"I'm full." The doctor put down his chopsticks and turned to go back to his room.
Yuko Aoyama looked at her husband with concern.
As soon as Dr. Aoyama returned to his room, he saw a human head placed on his desk, and most importantly, the head was still smiling at him.
"Tomie... Tomie..." Dr. Aoyama's face turned pale, and his legs went weak, causing him to collapse to the ground.
Wasn't Tomie already dead? Why is her head here? Did the boss do it? Is he trying to threaten me?
Just as the doctor was lost in thought, the human head spoke.
"Dr. Qingshan, didn't you like me a lot? You hurt me so much just now! You're so mean, you actually cut off my foot! Was my foot really that pretty?"
Dr. Aoyama's brain was trembling; a human head was actually talking—this was illogical.
Ultimately, there's only one explanation!
"Ghost!!!"
Dr. Aoyama let out a very shrill scream.
People eating in the cafeteria were immediately drawn to the scene. Heiji Hattori kicked the door open and saw Dr. Aoyama curled up in a ball, his eyes were bruised, and his whole body was trembling.
He then pointed to the table next to him.
"A ghost! A ghost! That woman is back! That woman is back!"
Hattori Heiji immediately went over, then suddenly frowned, because he found bloodstains on the table, the blood still wet.
"Doctor, what exactly happened? Can you explain it to me clearly?" Hattori Heiji asked.
But the doctors are now so frightened that they're incoherent.
He has suffered a mental breakdown and can no longer utter a complete sentence.
Heiji Hattori was at his wit's end and could only look at Conan beside him.
Conan begins inspecting the room.
There were black spots on the wall, which looked like bloodstains.
The carpet was newly replaced.
Conan lifted the carpet and found knife marks on the wooden floor.
A murder and dismemberment case comes to mind for Conan.
However, there is currently no evidence.
The most basic element in determining whether a case is a murder is finding a body, but now there isn't even a body.
"Doctor, what happened? If you don't tell us anything, we can't help you," Conan asked.
Dr. Aoyama held his head tightly, not uttering a single word.
If the fact that I committed murder is exposed, my life will be over.
How much effort did it take for me to become a doctor?
How can such a bright future be wasted here?
"I...I..." Dr. Aoyama thought for a long time but still couldn't come up with a way to lie.
The innkeeper, however, knew what Dr. Aoyama had seen.
Because he saw it too.
Conan kept thinking, what could Dr. Aoyama have seen that would frighten him like this?
As a surgeon, Dr. Aoyama has seen many bloody scenes in his daily life, so theoretically he should be very calm no matter what happens.
Could it be that……
"Dr. Aoyama." Conan walked up to Dr. Aoyama and said in a cute, childlike tone, "You didn't kill that older sister and dismember her, and then you accidentally saw her in front of you just now?"
Yamabuki Hanajin has appeared in this world twice, but neither time was she an ordinary person.
Today, Yamabuki Hanajin's performance felt very strange; it was like... he was constantly courting death.
"Could it be that she's immortal today? No matter how I try to kill her, I can't?" Conan was still analyzing.
Dr. Aoyama was too frightened to speak. Could it be that the child witnessed their attack?
If that's the case... then this child shouldn't be let off the hook either.
If his murder is exposed, his life will be completely ruined.
"Little brother, don't talk nonsense. How could I, as a doctor, kill someone? My duty is to treat the sick and save lives. I just accidentally saw a mouse. I'm terrified of mice, right?" Dr. Qingshan hurriedly said to his wife.
Ms. Aoyama Yuko clasped her hands tightly to her chest, unsure of what to do.
She's just an accomplice; even if the police catch her, she can say she was coerced. This bastard will get a divorce as soon as he gets out.
Conan and Heiji Hattori deduced from the clues in the room that a murder had definitely occurred, but there was more than one culprit, and the innkeeper was also suspicious.
"Everyone, I think you must have seen something you shouldn't have seen. It's one o'clock in the afternoon now, and it will be dark in three or four hours. You all felt terrified during the day, but if that thing comes to you at night... I don't even want to think about how exciting that would be." Conan's face showed a horrified smile.
As soon as the words were spoken, the faces of Dr. Aoyama, the hotel owner, and Yuko Aoyama all turned extremely ugly.
Yes.
If it gets dark... that woman will be found...
"Heiji, Ran, and Kazuha, let's go find Miss Tomikawa. We need to give them some time to think it over." Conan glanced at the adults beside him.
At this moment, these adults dared not look a child in the eye and all lowered their heads.
And so, they walked into the blizzard wearing thick cotton-padded clothes.
Hattori Heiji whispered, "Should we call the police? What if these people are desperate and do something rash?"
"There's no body now, so calling the police won't do any good. As for desperate measures... do you think we'd be afraid of them if a fight really breaks out?" Conan smiled confidently.
Chapter 227: Hattori Heiji: "Science does not exist!"
The wind and snow outside were heavy, but it wasn't so bad that you couldn't see anything. Conan was almost certain that if Kawakami Tomie had really been murdered and dismembered, then her body must be buried nearby.
It started snowing heavily in the morning, and people couldn't go very far in such conditions.
Searching the area might yield some clues.
