- It is very harsh, and you can't stand the error of the clock slowly for a second.
Judging from her behavior of blaming Kogoro Moori for being two minutes late, it seems that the other party's strictness about time has been integrated into her daily life.
Dealing with the other party may be tiring.
With such a character, it is understandable that the prisoner would ridicule him so much in the notice letter.
"Forget it, ma'am."
Just then, a middle-aged man with a big beard, a pipe in his mouth and a rough face, and a yellow-haired woman each came to the door of the mansion holding umbrellas.
The other party seemed to have heard what Rukako Hoshina said. He came over and closed the umbrella while smiling and smoothing things over: "It's like everyone inevitably needs to rest. Letting the clock take a breath occasionally can also make people relax.
In this case, what's wrong? "
"Ah, is the clock in your mouth alive, so there is no need to rest like a human being?" the middle-aged lady holding a red umbrella asked with a smile.
"No, clocks and people are the same!"
Just then, an old man wearing a raincoat walked up in the rain. The man walked up the stairs with a cane and said, "Just like people need physical examinations every once in a while to confirm their health, if you can't check for problems regularly, the clock will also be very fast." It just rusted and broke down.
Don¡¯t forget, while people are sleeping, clocks continue to work.
While recording time, the gears are constantly being worn, and the clockwork will gradually fail, right? "
Seeing the three people appearing one after another, Karasawa narrowed his eyes. He couldn't help but be careless. After all, Mouri Kogoro and Conan were here, which meant that a murder was definitely going to happen in this mansion today.
In other words, the warning letter that had been silent for the past two years is probably going to happen tonight, and the victim will naturally be the Rukako Hoshina next to her.
And the three people in front of him were naturally listed as the key targets of Tang Ze's attention.
Although many guests must have returned from the banquet today, these three arrived with Mouri Kogoro after all, and the number of people is a sensitive "choose one from the classic three" configuration, so naturally they have to be careful.
But just when he was about to ask for basic information about the three of them, Kogoro Mouri looked at Ruika Hoshina and asked with a smile: "Who are these three?"
¡°They are Mr. Sadago Abebe who designed this mansion, and Ms. Zhiqiu Zhou Fang who was responsible for the interior decoration.¡±
Rukako Hoshina smiled and looked at the last man to come and said with a smile: "As for the last man, he is Mr. Gutanshuo who made the big clock of this mansion.
The three of them are also guests attending the birthday party tonight. "
"I'm just here to check on the big clock. As for your birthday party, I'm just here to attend."
Who would have thought that after hearing what Rukako Hoshina said, the old man Gutan Lunzao said unceremoniously: "I'm sorry to give in, I'm going to fall in."
"I promised to take care of that big clock for the rest of my life. This is an agreement between me and my old friend."
"Um, who is my old friend?" Conan asked curiously, taking advantage of the convenience around him.
"It's the clockmaker we hired before. He is basically fully responsible for the clocks in this mansion."
When Rukako Hoshina said this, she crossed her arms and looked at Zhou Fangchiqiu and said, "I remember he is your brother, right?"
"Yes, thanks to my brother's kind words, I have the opportunity to take over the decoration work of this mansion."
After Zhou Fangzhiqiu answered with a smile, he seemed to have remembered something and walked towards him quickly, picked up the camera hanging on his chest and said with a smile: "I found a very beautiful carpet. Do you want to see the sample?"
¡°Let¡¯s wait and see.¡± Rukako Hoshina said with a smile, holding her hands.
"Okay." Zhou Fangzhiqiu nodded flatteringly.
"Okay, everyone, you'd better come inside. It's not convenient to talk while standing at the door." Rikako Hoshina stretched out her hand to make a gesture of invitation: "Come in and talk."
"Then please leave your umbrellas to me for safekeeping." The butler on the side stretched out his hands to signal everyone to hand over the umbrellas to him.
Mouri Kogoro, Karasawa and others handed the umbrellas to each other one after another, but Sadago said with a smile: "I don't need mine, this is a folding umbrella."
"Okay." After hearing Qingbian Dingwu's words, the butler did not force it.
After everyone called for umbrellas, they followed Rukako Hoshina and walked towards the interior of the mansion.He was explaining to everyone why he was so angry just now.
"Among the entire mansion, the only exception is the big clock. It has rarely slowed down in the past ten years."
Rukako Hoshina smiled and said, "But this is also because the master who makes the clock comes to make adjustments in person every year, so it's no wonder.
If you are interested, how about going up to the bell tower with me and taking a look inside? "
Perhaps because she felt that the atmosphere was a little too stiff, Rukako Hoshina quickly changed the topic in an attempt to lighten the atmosphere.
And everyone was not used to the stiff atmosphere just now, so they all agreed and agreed.
Under the leadership of Rukako Hoshina, everyone came to the inside of the bell tower.
In fact, they had already seen the big clock when they came to this mansion to park the car. After all, the huge clock stood tall next to the mansion. People who saw it naturally wanted to take a look at it unconsciously.
Going upstairs in the dark, Rukako Hoshina turned on the lights on the wall, and the scene inside the clock tower was also displayed in front of everyone.
"Wow, that's awesome!" Xiaolan looked at the huge assembled gears in front of her through the guardrail and couldn't help but sigh.
"Indeed, this is the first time I've seen it." Ayako stood next to Xiaolan and echoed: "I didn't expect the inside of the huge bell tower to look like this."
"Yes, this is really shocking." Mouri Kogoro said while looking at the huge rotating gears.
Xiaolan on the side looked at the rotating gears, then walked towards the room, and saw the gears connected to a horizontal iron pillar leading to the wall.
There must be a pointer outside the wall.
Next to the iron pillar, there is a small door.
"What's behind this door?" Xiaolan reached out curiously and opened the square door, "Wow, sister Ayako, look, this is the face of this big clock, facing the backyard."
"This is really good." Tang Ze and Conan couldn't help but admired after they got closer and looked at the distant scenery from a high place.
However, the scenery in the distance only attracted attention for a moment. Soon, Tang Ze and Conan's eyes were focused on the grass in the backyard.
In the continuous heavy rain, Gutan Lunzao, who had met once before, was standing in front of a large well sealed by an iron net, clasping his hands to pay homage to something.
¡°Isn¡¯t that the Mr. Gutan we met before?¡±
Conan looked at the Gutan rotation below and asked curiously: "Why would he worship at that well?"
"Because my brother died there."
After hearing Conan's words, Zhou Fangzhiqiu walked to the window and looked at the well below and said: "My brother was a watchmaker in the Hoshida family during his lifetime, but when he was repairing the digital dial of the big clock, he was blown down by the strong wind. "
¡°Actually, before this mansion was renovated, there was that well.¡±
"It's too dangerous and there have been accidents before, so I plan to wait until next week to find someone to seal the well."
"Then, I will go down and pay homage to him later." Qingbian Dingwu said and walked to the window and looked down the yard: "After all, the deceased Zhou Fang was also my childhood playmate."
¡°Then please help me and pay my respects.¡±
As the younger sister on the side, Zhou Fangzhiqiu heard what Qingbian Dingwu said, but she said something that reminded her of ruthlessness, turned around and left.
"Aren't you going to worship your brother yourself?" Mouri Kogoro on the side heard what Zhou Fangzhiqiu said, and couldn't help but look at the other person's retreating back and asked: "After all, you are his sister, right?"
"Actually, I went to my brother's grave this morning." Zhou Fang Zhiqiu turned to look at everyone and said, "After all, today is my brother's death anniversary."
"It's the death anniversary" Mouri Kogoro heard this and said: "That means the accident happened on my wife's birthday"
"Yes." Zhou Fangzhiqiu nodded.
"For more details, let's talk about it in my room."
Rukako Hoshina didn't seem to want to mention it in front of everyone. She smiled and looked at Karasawa and Ayako: "Are you two coming too? I also want to ask two famous detectives to help me find out the source of the threatening letter. Find out the identity of the sender.¡±
Rukako Hoshina looked a little sharp, obviously very angry with the prisoner who had sent her threatening letters for three consecutive years.
Tangze and the others were naturally non-committal about this. After everyone got off the bell tower together, they followed each other to the other party's room to learn more detailed information from the other party.
