Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 403 Is there anyone else outside?

"Anyway, the murderer is definitely not me," the horse-faced man emphasized, "I didn't know that little brother before, and I only came here at night..."

"I just arrived today too!" The bearded man followed.

The old woman glared at Uncle Mao Li, but with her short, fat and old body, he made him hold back his words.

Uncle Mao Li turned to the two horse-faced men in embarrassment: "But no one can testify for you, if it's not one of you, who could it be?"

"Maybe it really exists," the old woman said faintly, "Besides us, there might really be something in this mountain..."

Xiaolan and Yuanzi hugged each other in fright, trembling: "Yes, what is there?"

"I almost forgot," the horse-faced man recalled, "before I met you, I saw a strange guy in the forest. He was wearing a black knitted hat. He was very tall. I thought it was a bear at first. I almost shot, I don’t know if it’s a ghost, but I’m afraid I can’t survive this kind of weather outside..."

"A black knit hat?"

Gao Cheng accidentally looked at the horse-faced man who was deliberately scaring Xiaolan and the two.

Why is there one more person?

If this guy isn't lying, this kind of blizzard weather is still strong enough outside.

Gao Cheng looked out the window.

The wind and snow were very heavy, the sky was dark, and even the forest could not be seen clearly. Is there really anyone outside in this blizzard mode?

"Is that person a lost traveler or someone?" Gao Cheng asked.

"Huh? I don't remember. Judging from his body shape, he should be a man, but because he is wearing goggles and a scarf, he can't see his face..."

"Could that person be Xia Ye?" Fenchuan Shiguo's mouth was dry suddenly, and his whole body seemed to be possessed by a demon. "One, it must be him, and it must be Xia Ye! He is still alive..."

"Fruit..."

"I'm going to find him!"

"I can't do it!" Yazi anxiously grabbed Fenchuan Shiguo who wanted to rush out of the cabin,

"The snowstorm is so big outside, you must not go out!"

"But Xia Ye is still waiting for me in the forest..."

"Xia Ye is already dead!" Yazi shouted, "He died in the avalanche four years ago!"

Gao Cheng saw that he had regained his senses and knelt on the ground and burst into tears. Fenchuan Shiguo, who was completely different from before, asked Yazi softly: "Xia is also..."

"It's my brother who disappeared four years ago," Yazi said sadly while supporting Fenchuan Shiguo, "Shiguo is my brother's girlfriend."

"Miss Fenchuan's chocolate..."

"I want to take it to my brother's grave to worship, because my brother likes the plaid pattern the most."

Yazi looked sad.

"We built a grave for my brother in this forest, next to the graves of the former boss and his ex-wife..."

"The grave." Gao Cheng said silently.

The old lady bent over and stood by the side, looked at Fenchuan Shiguo with sentimental eyes, and sighed: "Actually, there are many graves in this forest, all because of those mountain disasters where the identities are unknown and no one comes to recognize their relatives." The tombs of the three of them, but most of them were destroyed by animals, and now only the tombs of the three of them are still standing there..."

Conan asked: "Why are there only three of them whose tombstones are not damaged?"

"Probably because I take Saburo to worship every day, and my husband does the same every day..."

"Okay," the bearded man interrupted, "Since there are other people in this forest besides us, the murderer should be that guy."

Uncle Mao Li stood among the crowd with a headache: "That man wearing a black knitted hat is indeed suspicious. If the premise is that there is such a person... I think we can only wait for the police to come."

Gao Cheng asks Xiaolan to take all the developed photos and compare them with the video footage from last night.

Except for the last one, which was taken outdoors during the day, most of the previous photos are from yesterday, and there are a few completely black photos between the last one.

Gao Chengchao asked Fenchuan Shiguo, who had barely calmed down, "Miss Fenchuan, what's going on with these black photos?"

"This," Fenchuan Shiguo rubbed the corner of his eyes, "It should be that when Ergaki pressed the shutter, it was just covered..."

"Wait a minute," Uncle Mao Li took the black photo carefully, "Could it be that something was tampered with while developing it?"

"Please," Fenchuan Shiguo said angrily, "How could I do anything?! When I developed the photos, Xiaolan was always beside me!"

"That's right, Dad," Xiaolan helped explain, "Sister Shiguo didn't do anything strange, and in order to prevent her fingerprints from being left on the camera, she even put on gloves when taking out the film..."

"In this case……"

Uncle Mao Li struggled to think hard, but still frowned and couldn't figure out why.

"If only I could find something to wipe off the blood on Mr. Ergaki's face."

"Hasn't it been checked? There is no blood on everyone's clothes."

"Yeah," the bearded man snorted, "the murderer must be that strange man, can we go back and rest first?"

"But……"

"Good night, everyone."

"Miss Shiguo," Gao Cheng frowned when he saw the two bearded people who were in a hurry to leave, and asked Fenchuan Shiguo, "Mr. Eryuan hurt his finger yesterday, right?"

"That's right," Fenchuan Shiguo said in a daze, "he was clumsy when cutting chocolate, so he accidentally cut his left thumb, although it was not serious, but when he saw the blood, he was frightened and shouted You screamed so much that your clothes were stained with blood..."

"Is there a lot of blood?"

"Fortunately, it's just crying and making a fuss for a while..."

"Has he always hung the camera on his body?" Gao Cheng thought of Eryuan who had been shown a few times in the video.

"Well, what's the problem?"

"No."

Gao Cheng smiled slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly.

After wearing the goggles, the photo with black shadows happened to be the last negative, and only the last photo was taken outside during the day, plus the previous consecutive black photos...

If the murderer hadn't been nervous and set up a reverse trap to deliberately solve these doubts, then there is only one possibility. The murderer forged the time of the deceased's death in order to prove his alibi. With...

In fact, the killer had absolutely no reason to set a reverse trap.

In this case, shouldn't he help others to create an alibi, but ignore his own psychopathic murderer?

Gao Cheng walked out of the living room alone, and suddenly saw two bearded men enter the victim's room with serious faces.

These two guys...
