Detectives of Detective World

Chapter 1537: The sudden appearance of a corpse

After talking with the old man, the two had a better understanding of the legend of the hidden gods passed down in this village.

However, nothing was found about the missing village chief.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to pay homage, Karasawa also took a closer look at the shrine, and found that the space inside was clearly visible, and there was nothing else except the mask.

The super sense of smell was also turned on, but just like last time, there was no smell of corpses in the shrine.

It can be said that the two of them have found nothing since they arrived here, as if the village chief has really disappeared.

"Let's go and eat."

Watching the crowds of people leaving the shrine after paying homage, Karasawa took Conan to the villagers' home for dinner again.

"There's no clue at all." Conan sighed and said, "I'm starting to wonder if the village chief really ran away."

"According to Yamato Criminal Investigation, the other party plans to sell the collective land in the village, and the contract has been signed."

Tangze said: "And the village chief disappeared before the news was announced. Now the opposition in the village, faced with the contract to acquire the company, said that the village chief disappeared and did not acknowledge the contract at all.

"Well, it's better to find a body than to go missing without any clues."

"Isn't it possible that this is the case?"

The two people gradually approached following the faint shouting, and soon they heard clearly what the shouting person was shouting, and their expressions immediately changed.

"It's Toru Kimura." The acting village chief nodded when he heard this and said, "I was wrong. It was you who asked me to hang up the mask. After all, the village chief had not been missing for eight days at that time. According to the rules, I must hang up."

The two of them resisted the idea of ​​checking the body and waited patiently for the arrival of the police stationed there.

After all, all the villagers were resting at home before lunch. There were not many people outside the village, so there was no need for us to stay inside.

"Let's rest for now." Conan sighed: "You guys will visit the Approval Sect in the morning and see if you can find nothing."

Since waiting a moment cannot avoid possible troubles, the two of them will naturally make a big mistake.

When we saw the corpse in the shrine, each of us had a weak reaction.

‘Did no one carry the body to the shrine? ’

The young criminal on the side couldn't help but said: "They saw that small parts of the body were embedded in the cement, only the hands and face were missing.

"That's right." The old criminal nodded and looked at Kimura Toru and asked, "Didn't he see the body when he retreated into the shrine?"

"It's not that, slow down!"

The other party's decision immediately aroused the anger of some villagers. Some elderly people even bluntly said that it was the protection of the gods. The outsiders of the village should burn the body according to the rules passed down from ancient times. Instead, the villagers were asked to retreat to the shrine to investigate.

"Ten days later, I was searched by the villagers and the police because I disappeared, but my whereabouts were still found." Tang Ze looked at the corpse and said, "I never thought that I would suddenly appear there today."

"You heard the child's cry under the car, and then you went over to check the situation, and then you learned about the body."

Before the two heard the girl's words, that thought flashed through their minds.

While the two were resting, suddenly the panicked shouts of villagers came from the car.

And at that moment, some villagers seemed to have heard the words shouted by the **** the road, and hurried to the shrine.

After hearing the girl's words, both of them had expressions of disbelief on their faces, because we had been to the shrine in person in the afternoon and had not seen any corpses at all.

"Don't panic, take a deep breath and calm down." Tang Ze comforted the other party and asked, "Where did he see the village chief?"

Because when we came, the girl who found the body had not yet informed the police stationed there. It is estimated that the police should have stopped people on the way here.

"Indeed, in that superstitious town, it's better to be casual and bad." After hearing Conan's words, Tang Ze nodded in agreement with Conan's statement.

The bad thing was that the Nianshen Criminal Law was still familiar to the villagers, so they managed to maintain order, not letting us get too close to the shrine, and preventing us from opening the small door without authorization.

After all, people outside seemed to be afraid that the Shenyin Man would return again, or the appearance of the corpse in the shrine was not a sign of good luck to us.

"What happened?" Conan opened the car door and said, "Go up and take a look at the situation."

There was no charge in the dark shrine, so the dim environment before retreating inside made people feel less depressed.

A panicked scream sounded, and Conan and the two hurriedly ran towards the direction of the shouter.

Soon the two of them found the source of the sound, which was a man with dark skin who looked to be no more than ten years old.

"It's your village chief, Tetsuo Sato." The acting village chief looked at the corpse's face and nodded, holding back his nausea and fear.

Without the support of the acting village chief, even if some people didn't buy it, they would all be pressured by the other party.

"It's possible. When the mask is hung up, it is possible to completely cover up the exposed parts of the body, leaving a gap for people." Tangze said, "And you haven't taken a careless look today, make sure you haven't."

However, Conan slowly suppressed his thoughts and asked me to report the news before asking the other party where the local criminals were stationed.

"Someone is coming! The village chief is dead!"

"How is that possible!?"

Because this corpse was thrown into the shrine by random people, but was fixed in the shrine!

"It's troublesome." Wang He also had a headache. "There are less than 500 people in the village. There are too few people who are not suspected."

"This speculation is not only suspected by you and me, but also by Zhu Fu and others." Tang Ze said: "But if there are any clues, whether the body is found, you will not be able to find the murderer."

"But the problem lies outside." Tang Ze said with a solemn expression: "Because there was nothing when you came in the afternoon."

"What happened!"

"Are you sure?" Toru Kimura shook his head and said firmly, "Are you sure you are?"

After hearing Wang He's words, Tangze nodded, looked at the corpses inside the shrine and asked, "What should you do now?"

The bad thing is that the acting village chief is also a sensible person and has enough prestige. Before scolding us for being feudal and superstitious and not just a simple murder, he personally opened the key to the shrine and asked Conan and the other criminals to retreat into the shrine.

I am sure Conan and we opened the small door of the shrine without authorization. We are sure that we will be kicked out directly by these superstitious guys if we wait for the acting village chief to come.

"Yes, it's at the shrine...you went here to play...and...the result..." The girl's tone was trembling, as if she thought of some terrible scene, and the next words were never spoken. .

"Conan Criminal?"

"Village Chief..." The girl stuttered with a horrified expression: "The Village Chief is dead..."

"Mr. Criminal, slow down!"

"Here comes...the village...criminal..."

Under the wall that usually faces the small door, in addition to the masks with different features, there is also a real corpse missing. The terrifying picture has brought a huge impact to people's psychology.

"According to your interviews, it seems that no one has seen the deceased walking towards the shrine after disappearing."

At this point, Conan couldn't bear to think that there would be so few clues about the person-to-person case.

The young criminal's face soon became ugly. He was comforted by the old criminal and stood there no closer, but Conan and Tang Ze had not yet reached the body.

Although the two were acquaintances in the village, it seemed that because Tang Ze was both a child, the other was not too wary.

But now that the body has appeared, no matter how it is found, it will bring you clues. "

After all, if there must be no body found on the platform, the body found by this girl should not be inside the shrine.

"Do you think it was the opposition who killed the village chief and created Shenyin?" Conan couldn't help but guess.

Conan asked quickly before stopping the other party.

While Karasawa was talking, Conan also saw an old woman with a pot head standing among the crowd in the shrine, so he got off and called her over: "We meet again, do you remember that he will come to the shrine a week later?" The village chief’s mask is hanging over there, right?”

Conan looked at the corpse and said, "Do you still remember the first time you came? At this time, the village chief had just disappeared, and you had already been to the shrine, but you didn't find anything."

In this way, even if the villagers are dissatisfied, they are only dissatisfied with the Metropolitan Police Department as a whole, and they will target you personally. "

That's wrong. The village chief's body was completely embedded under the wall in front of the shrine. Only his face and hands were exposed. It seems that it is true as the old man said. When he returned as an evil ghost, he was hindered by the mask and could he successfully return to the world. !

Before arriving at the platform, the two of them scanned for any corpses and then focused on the shrine building itself.

Before finishing the meal, Wang He planned to take Tang Ze out of the car to rest as he looked at the gradually thinning crowd outside the village.

The murderer must have hung a mask where the body was exposed on the wall, and the light inside the shrine is dim, so you can see it from the front. "

"It's just you, and not all the villagers who came to worship have also seen it." Conan said.

Don't look at that matter, the other party's subordinates were nervous to explain it, but that was because the other party had enough prestige and was the acting village chief to resolve it so nervously.

The old criminal was horrified when he heard Tang Ze's words: "They said there would be no bodies in the afternoon, but how is that possible!?"

Very slowly, the old criminal led the acting village chief to rush over, and the other party quickly took control of the situation.

Before Conan explained the whole story in a complex way, he looked at the criminal team who was one year old and said: "The body is in the wall outside the shrine. We need to find someone who can handle it to open the small door of the shrine."

It now seems that the murderer hid the body somewhere else, and then buried my body outside the wall while there were people around. "

"Although it is believable, the facts are not yet before you."

"It seems like no one is shouting something inside..." Tang Ze opened his eyes and said.

At this moment, what appeared behind their eyes was a human head and hands suddenly appearing under the wall!

Accompanied by children's cries, chaotic and hurried footsteps sounded at the foot of the nearby steps. A moment ago, two panting criminals arrived at the platform of the shrine.

"Well...but he saw that the cement wasn't completely dry yet."

Conan and others then retreated into the shrine.

In addition to asking the elderly to pray again, I even announced in public that I would open the small door of the shrine to allow the criminal investigation to proceed.

The two tried to open the door before approaching the shrine, but found that the small door of the shrine was still closed.

He was lying in an ordinary room of a shrine, but his whole body was stuck under the wall!

The old criminal said: "You also focused on investigating the shrine before, and even borrowed the key to retreat into it, but you also found nothing.

The older ones were still worse, but they were shocked by the horrific death of the village chief inside the shrine. However, as the elderly people arrived one after another, they even knelt down behind the shrine when they saw the scene, and knelt down to pray to others.

Wang He looked at the corpses under the wall of the shrine and said with disbelief: "When you came to worship in the afternoon, there were obviously no corpses left!"

"What?"

Conan said: "As far as the village is concerned, you are a member of the village. In order to confirm our attitude towards the shrine, there is no risk of being ostracized by opening the shrine rashly even if you show your identity in front of us.

So before you wait for the local criminals to come and communicate with the villagers, follow the formal procedures to open the small door of the shrine.

Because Conan visited our residence later and asked if there was any latest update on the disappearance case, so the other party naturally knew Wang He.

"wait."

The two of them frowned and pondered before getting out of the car, but they didn't have any bad ideas. They simply rested under the car to recuperate so that they could better cope with the morning investigation.

"Acting village chief, please confirm the identity of the body." Conan looked at the middle-aged woman and said.

The other party felt that the other party took the money and ran away, and naturally had to fulfill the contract since it was in hand. Both parties argued endlessly. "

"Understood, you go find the acting village chief." When the old criminal heard Conan's words, I understood Conan's concerns beyond his words and hurried to find the village chief.

Wang He looked at the horrific corpse embedded under the wall~www.wuxiamtl.com~ and said with a fierce expression: "And that's a bad thing. I'm sure the corpse has been discovered and you didn't even make any move.

Although they hadn't learned from the girl that the corpse of the village chief was at the shrine, the two of them were still horrified when they saw the corpse in the shrine.

When the old criminal heard what Wang He said, he believed it and said: "It doesn't mean that the prisoner will not use cement to embed the body under the wall in a few days."

"Although the cause of death cannot be determined until the body is taken out from under the wall, judging from the surface of the body visible to the naked eye, it seems that the body was not killed for about a week."

The two of us ran all the way towards the shrine.

When they had a way, the two of them stepped back from the gap in the shrine window to check.

"Yes." The Jarhead woman nodded: "The acting village chief asked you to prepare it."

"What!?"

In the crowd, a faint voice suddenly sounded, and even though it was far away, it caught the attention of the two people under the car.
