Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 1079: Night Wedding Banquet

The six western-style buildings in Liujiao Village are Tower Pavilion, Creeper Pavilion, Armor Pavilion, Stained Glass Pavilion, Weathervane Pavilion, and Tokita Wakaba’s Clock Pavilion.

They are all Ijinkan, that is, houses where foreigners lived from the end of the Bakumatsu to the Meiji era.

Corresponding to the name of the museum, each western-style building has its own style, the tower of the tower building, the ivy of the creeper building, the armor guard standing at the entrance of the armor building, the stained glass of the stained glass building, and the roof of the weather vane building. The weather vane, the big clock of the Clock Museum.

The family crests of the six families are the shields of David without their respective triangles.

This is no longer an ordinary remote mountain village, but more like a gathering place for rich families.

The car passed in front of many elegant and exquisite western-style buildings. There was only a gloomy girl with a crow standing on the roadside to give way to the car. Other than that, no one was seen, and the desertion was a little scary.

It seems that not many people live in these western-style buildings.

The watch house, Tokita's house, Odagiri stopped the car and knocked on the door.

"Who's there?" The door opened slightly, revealing half a dull old face. It was an uncle with silver hair parted in the middle. He was not tall, dressed in ordinary clothes, and looked like a servant.

"H-Hello," Odagiri said nervously, "Wo-Wakaba is at home? We are her friends..."

"Friend?" The uncle opened the door and said in a daze, "What can you do with my daughter?"

"Well, I heard that Luo Ye is going to get married..."

"Aren't you that teacher?"

The uncle looked at Odagiri who was stammering, and suddenly reacted.

"Go back! Go back to Tokyo! You are not welcome here!"

"Dad," a girl in a kimono with a cold face called to stop the uncle from inside, "I called them here, let them attend my wedding together, Dad."

"Ruo Ye!"

"If I don't go back and escape, the ceremony will be held tonight as agreed."

The girl glanced at Odagiri and Gaocheng blankly, turned and left.

"Wakaba!" Odagiri said anxiously,

"Are you really voluntary? Come back with me..."

"Aunt Xue, let's arrange rooms for the guests."

The girl ignored Odagiri, and just arranged for an old servant to stay and entertain, as if she really only regarded Odagiri as an ordinary friend.

"Both," the old servant stopped in front of Odagiri, and said in a stiff tone, "Miss is busy preparing for the wedding, please come with me."

Gao Cheng's gaze stayed on the back of the girl in kimono for a while, and he dragged the sad Odagiri to follow the old servant.

He didn't feel anything at all, he didn't intend to help Odagiri get married, don't look at this guy who looks like an infatuated cowardly teacher now, he might still be thinking about killing people in his heart.

Odagiri took over as teacher from the very beginning to get close to Tokita Wakaba, and I'm afraid I've been waiting for this day for a long time.

It is said that the Tokida family wanted to wait until Tokita Wakaba graduated from high school before returning home to get married. It is probably because the discovery of the bones of the real teacher forced Odagiri to expose his relationship, and forced the Tokida family to advance the wedding through an anonymous letter.

What to do next?

Gao Cheng stayed in a guest room under the arrangement of the old servant. Through the window, he could see that the sky outside was gradually getting dark.

It is a way to keep an eye on Odagiri. After obtaining the evidence of Odagiri's crime, the chaos here can almost be ended, and the crimes in Liujiao Village cannot be hidden.

There are six families here, and each western-style building hides a mutilated mummy, which is related to a certain case many years ago and is also the root cause of this serial murder case.

"But this house is too big, isn't it?"

At night, Gao Cheng couldn't help being curious, and planned to investigate the dusty mummy case here, but got lost in the house.

It was quiet in the corridor, and it was particularly terrifying under the moonlight. Even if he was a brave man, his hair would stand on end.

The atmosphere in this weird village is really not very friendly. It was not popular enough, and the mummy was still hidden in the house.

But for him, the trouble is that he can't even find the mummy anywhere.

"Who?" Uncle Shitian suddenly looked for him with a flashlight, and a ghostly black cat was beside him.

"I'm sorry," Gao Cheng smiled dryly and looked at the tense-looking Uncle Shitian, "I went out to find the bathroom, but I got lost."

"Well, I'll take you back."

Uncle Tokita squeezed out a smile on his face, but there were still beads of sweat on his face.

"You are Hei Yu, Ruo Ye's classmate, right? It's time for the wedding banquet soon. I'll ask the servant to prepare a dress for you."

"Ah, trouble."

Gao Cheng looked back at the corridor he had just passed.

The uncle reacted too much, maybe the dark room where the mummy is hidden is here.

...

"Boom!"

At 9:00 p.m., Gaocheng and Odagiri were invited to the Tokida family's wedding banquet, and other residents of the Ijinkan also made an official appearance.

The owner of the Tower Pavilion is a very enchanting woman, the owner of the Ivy Pavilion is a strange old woman wearing a headscarf, the owner of the Armor Pavilion is a middle-aged gentleman wearing scholarly glasses, and the stained glass pavilion is a bald uncle with a birthmark on his face. In the end, the owner of the Weathervane Pavilion was a blond man who looked like a Caucasian.

Gao Cheng sat down in a slightly loose suit.

Even though it was a wedding banquet, the atmosphere at the scene seemed a little depressing, no one spoke.

Although it is strange to have a wedding banquet at this time...

Gao Cheng's eyes swept over everyone one by one, and no one else reacted, only the enchanting woman in the Tower Pavilion looked at him frequently, her chest was pressed down very low in the dress, as if it was about to fall off at any moment, plump and attractive, she inadvertently licked it with her tongue He licked the corner of his mouth, as if looking at prey.

A bunch of weirdos.

Gao Cheng looked away, just at that moment when Uncle Shi Tian, ​​who had changed into a dress, walked into the banquet hall and broke the silence: "Then, we will follow the tradition and hold the wedding eve banquet."

Immediately after Uncle Toda came was Wakaba in a wedding dress, followed by a girl in a black evening dress with crow feathers on her shoulders.

It was the crow girl I saw on the road before, she still had that gloomy look, and a crow feather fell off her shoulder while walking.

Will anyone catch crows to make a dress for a wedding banquet?

It doesn't seem to be surprising that such a tragedy will happen in this kind of village.

Gao Cheng looked back, and the last one to appear was the groom this time, a strange masked man named Liancheng Jiuyan, with a hood covering his eyes, looking like a gangster.

I heard that this person has been sick since he was a child, so he can only wear this look.

"Uh," Uncle Tokita looked at the masked man standing with his daughter, with an unnatural expression on his face, and continued, "As usual, the bride will spend the night in the church tonight, and the groom will stay and share the feast with us... ..."

"what?"

Gao Cheng was puzzled when he saw Shitian Ruoye and Crow Girl going out together.

It's been too long, and he doesn't remember all the details, and he wants to ask but doesn't know how to ask.

His sense of presence at this banquet was too low, even if the guests started to communicate, no one would leave him. As for the beautiful woman in the Tower Pavilion, he really didn't want to pay attention.

This kind of time is not good for extravagance.

"Oh, it's really congratulations, Mr. Tokita," the birthmark-faced and thankful uncle complimented, "Being able to form an in-law with the Liancheng family in the city is also of great benefit to the development of our village..."

Gao Cheng avoided the sight of the beautiful woman and focused on solving the roast chicken.

This in-law might not be able to get married, and the wedding may not be a success, and soon the mummy case in Liujiao Village will cause a sensation, and none of the six families will be spared.
