Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

"Really, Cheng...Yi, where's your script?"

"I forgot it in the room, help me find the script of Arimori-senpai..."

In the backstage of the theater, Gaocheng took Nanase to find a script in the prop box. Suddenly, the heroine Yuyo Takashima, who was rehearsing on the front stage, quarreled and pushed down Hidaka Orie.

"You give me enough!"

"What's wrong?" Gao Cheng and the two were surprised.

"This guy has been making mistakes since just now," Tomoyo Takashima said angrily, "This time there is a scout watching the game, I don't want to be dragged down by this kind of person! Teacher, why don't you take Hidaka out of this drama?" Get rid of it!"

"Tomoyo, you're talking too much!"

"Then I won't act, hum!"

There was a lot of noise around the stage, and in the end Tomoyo Takashima put down his burden and left, leaving Hidaka weeping in a low voice.

"Senior Hidaka, are you okay?" Gao Cheng helped Hidaka Oriue with some embarrassment, just started the rehearsal and it was like this, what is this drama department here for...

"I'm fine."

Hidaka Orie bit his lip, wiped the corners of his eyes suddenly, turned and ran away.

"Don't worry about it," Yuji Arimori walked up to Gaocheng, "Tomoyo has always been so self-willed, I'll be fine tomorrow..."

"Ah, Yumori-senpai!" Gao Cheng saw Yumori and remembered to take the script to the sound room, "Sorry..."

"It's nothing, I just came to check the props too." Arimori smiled, and led Gao Cheng back to the sound room.

"Ms. Ogata," a beautiful girl in a long skirt walked out of the backstage of the stage, "I remember the lines, so I will replace Tomoyo."

Ogata shook his head: "Impossible, the game is less than two weeks away, it's definitely too late to change roles now..."

"Who is that girl?" Gao Cheng looked at the stage in surprise through the glass window of the audio room, "Has there been such a beautiful girl before?"

"She's Kiryu."

Arimori smiled and said, "How is it? Surprised, right?"

"Eh? She's that Obasan-like girl with glasses?!" Gao Cheng threw himself to the window and stared at the stage closely, "What that kid Nanase said is actually true, it's like a different person at all. In that case It's okay to use her instead of the heroine..."

"It's too late. This play will take a lot of preparation time. Changing actors is almost equivalent to doing it all over again, and now there are not enough actors in the department..."

Yuji Arimori looked at the stage, with regret on his face: "It would be great if Rika was still around, she is more suitable than anyone else to be the heroine."

"Li Jia?" Gao Cheng asked suspiciously, "Who is the Li Jia you are talking about, and is he also a member of the drama department?"

"Ah um," Arimori came back to his senses, as if he didn't want to talk more, and instead took the script and said, "Come on, let me tell you how to play the corresponding sound effects during the performance."

...

"Boom!"

During dinner time, thunder rumbled outside the villa, and the storm blew over the entire island, only the inside of the villa was quite calm.

Gao Cheng and Nanase walked into the restaurant on the first floor together. There were already two unknown customers beside a long western-style dining table, a successful person wearing glasses, and a teenager who looked like he was just a high school student. .

"Yi, it's a luxurious feast!" Nanase's attention was completely attracted by the food on the table, and she pulled Gao Cheng to the seat by the window at the end.

"Everyone hasn't come yet..."

"It's okay, let's find a seat first."

"Hey," the high school boy stood by the window, glanced at Gao Cheng and the two, and reminded, "There are signs on the seats, sit in your own seat."

"what?"

It was only then that Nanase noticed that there was a sign with their respective names on the table, and his and Gao Cheng's seats were on the side near the door.

"Hug, I'm sorry..."

Gao Cheng then sat down in his seat,

He gave the boy a strange look.

With a cold appearance, his temperament is very different from that of ordinary high school students...

"Are they the residents before us?" Nanase whispered, "It feels weird."

"You don't have the right to talk about others," Gao Cheng looked away, turned to Nanase and asked, "By the way, is there someone named Li Jia in your drama department?"

Nanase's face changed drastically, and she said in surprise, "How do you know?"

"I heard from Arimori-senpai just now, do you have any questions?"

"Actually, Tomoyo-senpai is acting as the heroine instead of Rika-senpai..."

Nanase's face was not very good-looking: "Pika-senpai is a born drama actor, better than anyone else, but a month ago, she accidentally splashed sulfuric acid on her face, and even surgery couldn't cure it... After that, she Just committed suicide, and it was in front of our eyes... She jumped off the building saying the lines of the weirdo at the opera house, and I can't forget it until now..."

"Nanase, don't mention this matter again," Yuji Yumori walked into the restaurant and interrupted Nanase, "Everyone wants to forget this matter as soon as possible."

"Ah, sorry!"

Members of the drama department rushed to the restaurant one after another, enjoying Western-style food around the dining table, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.

Gao Cheng sandwiched a piece of bread, which felt pretty good, almost comparable to the high-end cuisine at Lihua Sijing's birthday party, but unfortunately there was no high-end red wine.

At this time, a middle-aged man in a suit walked in outside the restaurant, with a scar on his face, but his manner was very elegant: "Welcome to the Opera House Hotel, are you satisfied with the food?"

"Well, it's delicious!" Gao Cheng bit the bread and said, "Can I have another... two more?"

"Uh... as long as you like it," Kuisawa nodded towards the servant, and said casually, "I'm the master here, Kuisawa, if you have any requirements, you can tell me."

"It's too embarrassing..." Nanase pulled Gao Cheng who was not eating with embarrassment.

As a big detective classmate, he really didn't pay attention to his image, no wonder he said he wanted to change his identity when he came here...

"Strange," Ogata-sensei looked at the empty seat next to him, "Where's Hidaka? Why haven't you come here yet?"

"Maybe still in the room..."

"It's her again," Tomoyo Takashima dissatisfied, "don't worry about her."

"Let me go and have a look," Gao Cheng volunteered, "Her room is..."

"It's the one on the far right on the second floor."

"Dong dong!" On the second floor, after Gao Cheng passed a corridor, he knocked on the door outside Hidaka Zhie's room, but found that the door was not closed tightly.

"Miss Hidaka? Can I come in?"

Pushing open a crack in the door, there seemed to be no one inside, even the lights were off.

"Senior Rigao?" Gao Cheng looked at the bed, the quilt hadn't been moved, only a bag was placed there.

"Crack!" Amidst a burst of lightning and thunder, Hidaka's room was brightly lit, and an inexplicable sense of terror pervaded the air.

"Could it be..."

Gao Cheng rushed into the room, looked left and right, ran to the bathroom, and opened the bathroom curtain with a swipe.

"Ah!" Hidaka Ori'e's miserable cry suddenly echoed in the villa, accompanied by the rumbling thunder that clearly entered Gao Cheng's ears, as if wailing before death.

"Sister Rigao?!" Gao Cheng was startled, put down the curtain, and looked back to the outside of the room with a tense expression.

Where did the sound come from in the villa, and it kept echoing in the corridor...

"Kiroto!" Nanase ran up the stairs, just bumping into Gao Cheng, "What happened?"

"I don't know, senior sister Rigao is not in the room!" Gao Cheng looked at the dark corridor with serious eyes, "Maybe something happened..."

The premonition came true, and the trip really didn't go so smoothly...

"Ridao!" Others downstairs also left the restaurant to look around.

"Can you find someone?"

"Damn it, what happened?"

Gao Cheng searched on the second floor, then ran downstairs in a hurry, when a sudden bell rang.

"what is this?"

"It's the opening bell of the theater!" Nanase said in surprise.

"Over there!"

Through the promenade connecting the villas, Gao Cheng followed the crowd to the theater. After seeing the stage with concentrated lights, Gao Cheng's eyes narrowed.

In the dim theater, heavy iron lighting equipment hit Hidaka Orie's plump and petite body in the middle of the stage, blood scattered all around, and in the staggered lights, Hidaka Orie's eyes were dull, only one The hand was stretched out straight as if trying to grab something, but it was powerless to hang on the steel frame.

"How did this happen?" Everyone in the drama department was frightened by the horrible scene before them, and looked at the bloody Rigao corpse in disbelief.

"There was such an accident..."

"It wasn't an accident, it was murder!" The high school boy appeared at the scene at some point, walked to the stage and picked up the lighting equipment sling, "Someone cut it with a knife. If it was a natural fracture, there should be burrs on the section." Yeah...someone deliberately cut the wire and the lighting fixture fell on her on stage."

"what?"

Everyone looked at the boy in surprise: "Who are you?"

"I'm a high school detective," the boy put his hands in his pockets and looked around the stage, "Xiaoqiao Kenjian."

"High school detective?"

Nanase came to her senses and hurriedly looked at Gao Cheng who was also walking on the stage. She opened her mouth without saying a word, but said in a low voice, "Kiroto, he is also a detective..."

"Know."

Gao Cheng ignored it, but looked at Hidaka Ori-e in a pool of blood with a complicated expression, because she was lying on the ground, even her breasts were exposed, but she was not attractive at all, this originally cute girl was like a doll at the moment Usually, pale without a trace of blood, completely lost vitality.

"Even the dead body looks so beautiful, what a pity girl." The successful man in glasses in the restaurant walked onto the stage after everyone removed the steel frame of the lamp, still carrying a briefcase in his hand.

"You are……"

"I'm Yingzuo Yu, working as a private doctor in Yokohama."

The man pushed his glasses, looked at Gao Cheng and the others with a smile: "You are friends of this little girl, are you convenient for me to do the autopsy?"
