Chapter 231: Film Club's Substitute

On Sunday, August 25th, Suzuki's villa in the suburb of Mihua Town.

At 2:10 a.m., Conan's words stunned Ryoichi Takahashi, who thought he was a messenger of justice and wanted to commit suicide.

At this time, "Crack, crack." Yamazaki clapped his hands and laughed, "The betrayal of a friend led to the death of a friend. This tragedy also turned another friend who lost his lover into a devil. It's really a classic drama."

Conan immediately questioned in Sonoko's voice: "Yamazaki, you bastard, you already knew who the bandage guy is, why didn't you stop him, and didn't expose him..."

"What!" Kakutani Hiroki, Ota Katsura, Ran, Suzuki Ayako and Takahashi Ryoichi were taken aback.

Yamazaki asked with a smile, "I've said it before, which eye of yours saw the Bandage Man kill Chikako Ikeda?"

Conan came out from under the table and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Didn't you see what I left in the kitchen?" Yamazaki asked with a smile, and then smiled at Suzuki Ayako, "Sister Ayako, I'm sorry for making a mess of your villa. As an apology, I want to miscellaneous The Sleeping Beauty in the wardrobe in the pantry should be enough."

kitchen? By the way, this guy asked me to deliver food at that time, and I remember leaving a copy at the end. Isn't that a supper for Mei Daizi? Conan thought in surprise, could it be for Chikako Ikeda?

"That Sleeping Beauty?" Suzuki Ayako thought for a moment, then asked in surprise, "You mean..."

"I left a dinner in the kitchen," Yamazaki smiled at Conan, and then said to Suzuki Ayako, "Heat it up and give it to her."

Kakutani Hiroki reacted, and immediately went to the utility room, and Ota Katsuki followed suit.

"Thank you," Suzuki Ayako wept with joy, saluted quickly and said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Yamazaki." After saying that, she ran away, and Lan followed.

"Hey, Yamazaki, what's going on?" Conan pointed to Ryo Takahashi and asked in a low voice, "Also, when and how did you observe it?"

Yamazaki thought about it quickly...

When Yamazaki saw Ryoichi Takahashi, he realized that something was wrong with him. Judging from the way he walked, he was definitely not a person who was around 1.6 meters tall and weighed nearly 100 kilograms. When drinking tea in the morning, he opened the distance between the chairs under the dining table and moved to the front of the dining table after sitting down. He did not consider his stomach, that is to say, he was not used to his stomach. And when they were talking about Atsuko, Yamazaki discovered that Ryo Takahashi had a lot of murderous intentions for Chikako Ikeda.

Then, Yamazaki found a pair of detachable and high-fidelity dummy dolls in the utility room. Presumably they were the doubles they used in filming, so he thought of a way, that is, to be a double for Chikako Ikeda. After lunch, Yamazaki went to the roof to have a look again. When Ryoichi Takahashi climbed the ladder, he didn’t suck his stomach, which is a peculiar action of a fat man with a big fat belly. When he stood on the roof, he didn’t put pressure on the roof. It looks like a person weighing nearly 100 kilograms, so Yamazaki confirmed that his stomach is fake, and he must be planning to kill Chikako Ikeda by doing so.

Yamazaki chose a doll, separated it, and found that it was hollow, so he filled its body and limbs with stones, branches and leaves. Beef was put on its heart, and then in order to avoid accidents, if it suddenly fell apart, the joints were sealed with beef and beef bones, and then the doll was put together while pouring cow blood. In this way, a puppet with bones, flesh and blood is made.

At this time, three things happened. Lan was attacked, the telephone line was cut, and the suspension bridge was cut down. Yamazaki was sure that Takahashi Ryoichi did not want Ikeda Chikako to leave. He was going to do it, and according to the murder weapon was an axe , determined that his assassination method should be to cut off his head with an axe, so he lowered the head of the dummy. At the joint of the neck, the two joints of the head neck and the chest neck, respectively, installed more and deep Some beef bones.

Later, the people in the living room broke up. Yamazaki called Conan to help add firewood, so he went to visit Chikako Ikeda and asked her a question. arrived. Thanks to the beef meal at noon, when Yamazaki went to pick firewood, Ikeda Chikako was very happy alone in the utility room, made up the dummy to look like herself, and changed clothes, necklaces and earrings. gave it.

After Yamazaki came back to pick up firewood and met Conan, he went to the utility room and stunned Chikako Ikeda who was waiting for him, and stuffed it into the closet. The sleeping pill was developed by Dr. Asaika, and it works for about ten hours without any side effects. This is because Yamazaki knew that the bandage monster used an axe, so he determined that Ryoichi Takahashi could only cut off her neck with an ax from behind in order to prevent Chikako Ikeda from screaming and attracting everyone, so Chikako Ikeda was not needed It's time for the barking accompaniment. Then Yamazaki sealed a mouthful of blood in the mouth of the dummy, and as soon as the head fell to the ground, the blood would be shaken out.

Then Yamazaki put Chikako Ikeda’s slippers at the back door, making the illusion that she had gone out, put her shoes on the dummy, and then took the fake Chikako Ikeda to the woods, tied silk thread on it, Let it stand in the grass under the tree and make a pose, while he hides in the tree and prepares for the fake Ikeda Chikako to kill him, so that the flesh and blood at the joint will not be exposed.

Not long after, Takahashi Ryoichi attacked from behind, and the first ax was aimed at the dummy's neck. Yamazaki pulled the silk thread to adjust the height of the dummy, let him cut on the flesh of the interface, let him cut off the head of the dummy, and immediately let the dummy fall to the ground to prevent the blood from spurting out. In this way, there are bones and flesh, and there is a lot of blood flowing from the neck, coupled with the dark sky, Takahashi Ryoichi did not realize that this person dressed like Chikako Ikeda is a fake.

Then Yamazaki saw that Ryoichi Takahashi would continue to chop, so he continued to cooperate with him and asked him to separate the dummy. At the same time, Yamazaki is very fortunate that Ryoichi Takahashi may be too familiar with the props. The place where he cuts is near the interface of the doll, so Yamazaki can make fine adjustments. Otherwise, Ryoichi Takahashi will find out that the dead can move, and it will be exposed. .

Later, Takahashi left with the dummy head, and Yamazaki got down from the tree, took back the silk thread on the dummy, and went back to the villa with firewood. ...

"To put it simply, I found a stand-in for Chikako Ikeda." Yamazaki laughed softly. "You didn't notice his height and weight from the beginning to the end. This is your mistake."

"Height and weight?" Conan thought for a while and said, "Indeed, when I was in the woods last night, looking at the footprints of the three of them in the muddy water, I can confirm that Ryoichi Takahashi's weight is about the same as that of Hiroki Kakutani. Eighty kilograms, this number is too different from the one hundred kilograms he said. As for the height, Ota Katsura is about 1.75 meters tall, and Kakutani Hiroki is about 1.80 meters tall. They brought the tulip-shaped Behind the hat, there is not much difference. They are about the same height as the bandage man, but Ryoichi Takahashi is only about 1.60 meters, so he needs to wear a fake head to pretend to be the bandage man, otherwise he will be discovered immediately. That one The tulip-shaped hat is also bought specially to confuse the height, so I know it very carefully.”

"There's also an ax." Yamazaki said with a smile, "But I don't know where he hid it at first, then..."

"On the roof." Conan said, "This is indeed my mistake, I should have thought of it earlier."

"You're still wrong." Yamazaki laughed, "Lan actually didn't find anything wrong with his size."

"You're wrong," Conan said with a smile, "If not, then why would he come after Lan."

Yamazaki said with a smile: "At that time, they came back from the morning exercise and took a shower. I think he should also wear a bandaged monster head and a black robe when he exercised in the morning, and his back should be facing the door. Where did Lan go to see him?" body shape."

"This is just your guess," Conan said, "Why don't you ask him."

Yamazaki asked and came back with a wry smile: "Because he was sweating a lot, he took it down, and when Lan pushed the door, he immediately covered them up, but his body was naked, so Lan saw the shape .”

"That is to say, I guessed it right." Conan smiled, and then asked, "Then tell me, what is it?"

"It seems that even he doesn't know about this flaw," Yamazaki said with a smile, "I said how could he take a shower with us."

"Bath?" Conan asked. "What's the problem? I don't see any difference."

"The rest of his body is full of fat, and there should be more fat in the abdomen, but now this only shows that he is only doing abdominal exercises such as sit-ups all day long. In contrast, his lower back muscles He will definitely get exercise," Yamazaki laughed, "so when he twists and bends, just watch carefully and you will know."

"Uh..." Conan was speechless.

At this time, Hiroki Kakutani and Katsuo Ota came out with Chikako Ikeda in a black dress, Ayako Suzuki followed with a piece of food, and Ran led the way with a candlestick.

"Mr. Yamazaki, can you tell me what's going on?" Kakutani Hiroki asked, "I obviously got that in my hand at that time?"

"Don't you have two very high-level dummy substitutes in your utility room? What he killed was a dummy carefully crafted by Ms. Ikeda herself. The flesh and bones at those joints are beef bones and beef, and the blood that bleeds is cow blood. Because it Clothes and jewelry and your preconceived notions, plus it was dark and rainy and it was in the grass, so you didn’t notice that it was fake.” Yamazaki laughed, “As for the fake head you got, it was covered by rainwater at that time. It was wet and cold, and you were frightened again, how could you feel it."

"Kakutani and Ota have already told me about the matter just now, Mr. Yamazaki, thank you." Chikako Ikeda said.

Yamazaki said with a smile: "You don't blame me."

"Takahashi, it's true that I was at fault for this matter," Chikako Ikeda said, "so I won't pursue it."

"Pursue it?" Takahashi Ryoichi said with a sinister smile, "When I come out, I will catch up with you. I will, until I die."

"You..." Chikako Ikeda was so angry and scared that she was speechless for a while.

Masaru Ota said, "Takahashi, why are you doing this?"

"That's what I want," Takahashi Ryoichi cried, "for Atsuko."

"Come on, big detective," Yamazaki asked with a small smile, "what can we do now?"

"No," Conan sighed, "we can only let the police do more of his work." Then he asked in a low voice, "Do you have any good ideas?"

"Sister Ayako," Yamazaki asked, "Do Mr. Takahashi and Miss Atsuko have family members?"

"Yes, their parents are still there." Suzuki Ayako said.

"Miss Ikeda, look at this," Yamazaki said with a smile, "How about you transfer the copyright of the Blue Kingdom to Mr. Takahashi for free?"

"Hmm..." Chikako Ikeda thought about it.

"Don't think about it," Takahashi Ryoichi said, "It's useless if I want that."

"Mr. Takahashi, this originally belonged to Atsuko, you can use this to take care of Atsuko's parents." Yamazaki asked, "What do you think?"

"Hmm..." Takahashi Ryoichi thought about it this time.

"I agree," said Chikako Ikeda, "as long as Takahashi promises not to trouble me in the future."

"I understand," Suzuki Ayako persuaded, "Takahashi, there are four old people behind you, you have to think about them."

"I..." Takahashi Ryoichi was shaken.

"Forgive him." Conan whispered beside Lan.

"Mr. Takahashi," Lan said, "if you can live a good life in the future, I can forgive you."

"I-I'm really sorry." Ryo Takahashi saluted Lan with tears in his eyes.

"Great." Suzuki Ayako smiled.

At this moment, Sonoko woke up. She stretched, yawned, and asked, "What's wrong?" Then she saw Chikako Ikeda sitting not far away, and immediately shouted, "Damn it!"

This made everyone present laugh together. Lan Gang wanted to go forward and explain to her, but was stopped by Yamazaki. Suzuki Ayako and the others explained for her.

Yamazaki said with a smile: "Lan, the temperature in the room has almost risen now, and I can't sleep well. You go and call Mei Daizi for me, and pack up your things by the way, we are ready to go home."

"Go home now?" Lan asked suspiciously.

"Yes," Yamazaki nodded and smiled, "You can leave when you come down."

Lan said: "I know, I'll go right away." Then he went upstairs.

"Hey, how do I get here?" Conan asked, "It's raining so much, and it's so dark, are you afraid of falling down the mountain?"

"Yamazaki," Suzuki Ayako came over and asked, "Are you leaving?"

"Yes," Yamazaki said with a smile, "I originally wanted to leave after dawn. Who knew there would be a power outage. If I knew that I would turn down the air conditioner a little earlier, I would be able to last until dawn."

"Who would have expected such a thing." Suzuki Ayako smiled, then saluted and said, "Then, send my regards to Uncle Miyamoto and Aunt Miko."

Yamazaki replied, "Okay, give my regards to Uncle Suzuki and Aunt Tomoko as well."

At this time, Lan and Mei Daizi came down, and Mei Daizi complained as soon as they came: "Yuanzi, your villa is so bad that there is still a power outage."

"It was struck by thunder." Yuanzi shouted immediately, "It has nothing to do with the villa."

"Thunder?" Mei Daizi laughed loudly, "What an unlucky fellow." She then asked, "Do you want to go with us?"

"Go?" Yuanzi asked, "How?"

"Brother said he could leave, so he could." Mei Daizi said.

"Then wait a minute," Yuanzi said, "I'll go back and get my bag." Then he went upstairs.

Yamazaki asked, "Have you got the things?"

"Take it." Lan and Mei Daizi said together.

"Then let's go." Yamazaki said, picked up Conan, went to the door and opened it.

Seeing the scene outside, Conan was stunned. As far as the lights were concerned, he could see a closed passage made of transparent materials extending from the darkness to the front of the villa. Two people in black raincoats stood at the entrance. See Yamazaki He came out and bowed. When did they come, Conan thought, could it be that the light at that time was that these people were going up the mountain.

At this time, seeing them come out, two rows of spotlights were lit up far away, shining on their feet.

With the help of the light, Conan could see clearly that the passage seemed to come from the suspension bridge, and the light should come from the opposite mountain.

At this time, Yuanzi came out and said, "Okay, sister, I'll go first."

Lan and Mei Daizi said together: "Sister Ayako, goodbye."

Yamazaki carried Conan up the passage, followed by Lan, Mei Daizi, and Sonoko. Conan found that the passage was made of pieces of boards, four of which formed a box. After a while, when he walked to the original suspension bridge, Conan found that the front was blocked and there was no way. And at this moment, with a tremor, this box vacated, and then led them to slide towards the opposite side. Conan looked up and saw that it was a long-distance crane. It turned out that the bridge was difficult to build, but it was easy for people.

Looking at the dark valley below, Sonoko asked, "Is this sturdy? It won't fall, right?"

"Don't worry, those of us who add these four boards will not have a ton, so there will be no problem." Yamazaki said with a smile, "The bridge cannot be built, but people can still pass it, if it is not afraid of getting wet. Clothes, just a tightrope man can slide through."

"This should let Uncle Mao Li come and sit for a while," Mei Daizi laughed, "it must be fun."

"Mei Daizi!" Lan shouted angrily.

At this time, the car body was put down and connected to another car body. An extended car nearly eight meters long was parked there. Conan took a closer look. This car was the same as the long car that delivered fish last time. Same, no flags. Looking around again, there is a truck crane parked here, and two trucks with spotlights, which should be loaded with these plates. Next to it are four four-seater cars and two nine-seater cars.

After getting into the long car, Conan found that it was a RV, with a bar sofa in the front and a sleeper in the back. Yamazaki pointed to the sleeping berth at the back and said with a smile: "Okay, it will take at least two hours for this bus to go to 5-chome. Mei Daizi, Sonoko, Lan, please put down the curtains and go to sleep. Conan and I can sleep on the sofa in front of us." gone."

When they put down the curtain, Conan asked in a low voice, "Who are these people? Why do they look like the tissues of those two guys are all black?"

"These are the people I hired at Shifeng Security to pick us up or rescue us." Yamazaki said with a smile, "and Shifeng Security is mainly black."

"It turned out that Shi Feng kept it safe." Conan said.

"If there is no problem, I will sleep?" Yamazaki said, "I haven't slept yet."

"There is a very serious problem, how can I sleep while you sleep here," Conan said with a smile, "Go over there, at least take care of the wounded."

"Okay, Mr. Wounded." Moving to the side, Yamazaki said with a smile, "Good night."...
