Chapter 1408 The mystery of the disappearance of the vampire(2/2)
"Uncle, why are you here?"
Hattori Heiji stretched his head and glanced out the window, and found that there was a small protruding room in the open space on the first floor outside the window. Qin Zhibo had to step on the roof of that room to gain a foothold in front of the second-floor window.
Qin Zhibo patted the dust on his clothes and explained: "I was also entrusted by someone to come here to witness the inheritance distribution ceremony."
When Conan heard this, he remembered that the important guest mentioned by the eldest daughter of the Yakura family turned out to be Qin Zhibo.
"But you're too late, aren't you? It's already night..." Conan complained lightly with his half-moon eyes drooping.
Qin Zhibo rubbed Conan's head and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, you don't have to be late for a good meal, right?"
"And it looks like I came just in time..."
Qin Zhibo understood what happened just now, then walked to the coffin to check.
At this time, the coffin lid remained open on the window sill. There was no one on the red cushion inside, and there was no body as Mao Lilan said.
However, Qin Zhibo took a quick glance and discovered that the hardware connecting the coffin lid to the coffin was stained with a small amount of red liquid.
"I'm not lying! That uncle's body was lying in the coffin just now, with a wooden stake stabbed in his chest!"
"He was covered in blood, wearing a black cloak, and he had pointy ears and teeth!"
"Just like the legendary vampire Count Dracula!"
Recalling the scene in their minds, Mao Lilan and Toyama Kazuye still looked nervous and uneasy.
At this time, Torakura Ernan, who was standing at the door with a square chin, recalled: "So, my brother seemed to have been given such a nickname when he was a child..."
The second man's wife raised the corners of her mouth, "That's because his name is Torakura Sakuya, so he is called 'Count Dracula'. It is indeed a nickname that only children use randomly."
The Japanese pronunciation of Tokura Oya is very close to Count Dracula.
This reminded Qin Zhibo of his previous experience with Dracula's vampire-related cases, and that person's surname was Hucang.
In fact, both Hucang and Yincang are similar to the word "Dracula".
At this time, the bespectacled woman standing behind added: "But that nickname doesn't come entirely from the name. If you trace the history of the Tokura family's ancestors..."
The old woman also echoed, "In addition, Koya has been showing several weird behaviors that are not like human beings recently. Maybe he has really been possessed by something weird, such as a vampire..."
At this moment, Qin Zhibo stood up from the coffin and interrupted.
"No matter whether Mr. Tokura is a human or a ghost, he is still lying in this coffin until just now."
"Look, there are stains of his blood on this hardware."
Qin Zhibo raised his finger and Conan and others looked over, only to find the blood stain that was not easy to detect.
"That's true!"
Officer Otaki took a closer look and found that it was indeed similar to the blood stains often seen at murder scenes.
Qin Zhibo reached out and touched the edge of the gap between the coffin board and the lining, and said: "There are also some mechanisms in this place..."
In Qin Zhibo's field of vision, he could see the investigation point inside the gap.
【Topographic Survey√】
[An electromagnet is installed in the gap]
"There is an electromagnet installed at the place I touched. It should be able to attract each other to the area on the edge of the coffin lid."
"As long as you use the remote control to control it, you can make the coffin unable to be opened at any time."
"This should be the reason why you couldn't open the coffin in the first place..."
What?
Conan and Hattori Heiji's expressions were shocked, and they hurriedly knelt down to check, and sure enough, they found a thin sandwich between the gaps in the coffin boards.
This interlayer surrounds the coffin. If they are all electromagnets, the suction force generated can indeed resist the pulling force of three and a half people.
"But if it's a remote control, it means at least someone must hold it to control it..."
Mouri Kogoro raised his chin and asked in confusion: "If the person in the coffin is dead at that time, who will be controlling the remote control?"
As soon as these words came out, Conan and Hattori Heiji had already turned their suspicious eyes on the Tokura family members behind them.
Obviously, when something like this happens, people at home will be suspected first.
But Qin Zhibo looked at the bottom of the coffin with a suspicious expression.
If we look at it as a traditional case, the murderer should indeed be these people.
But if you follow the instructions of the main mission, there is a high probability that the owner of this mansion is a real vampire.
A vampire cannot be killed easily.
Although Mao Lilan said that he was nailed to the heart by a wooden stake, and the wooden stake is the nemesis of vampires, this shows that the murderer may know the identity of the vampire of the owner of the bungalow and took action accordingly.
Then this person might also know the secret of vampires...
It's just that the "corpse" disappeared from the coffin, which makes people think of one of the abilities possessed by vampires - disembodiment.
At this moment, the pretty boy at the door and the three men in Tokura started arguing again.
The three men in Tokura were dissatisfied with the pretty boy treating his eldest brother as a monster, and angrily grabbed the pretty boy by his tie and questioned him.
But the pretty boy was still gushing, and smiled as if he didn't deserve a beating: "I'm not the only one who thinks so, right?"
"Right? Mr. Butler, didn't you invite these people here because you have the same idea as me?"
At this time, Butler Koga also came over after hearing the news and stood in the corridor.
"Yes, due to the various abnormal behaviors that the master has shown recently, which are really weird, I rashly invited Mr. Detective to attend this inheritance distribution meeting."
Everyone in the Tokura family was stunned, "Interpol?"
Officer Otaki stood up and introduced himself, and also revealed Kogoro Mouri's identity as a famous detective.
"Hello everyone, I am the sleeping Mouri Kogoro~"
Everyone looked at Mouri Kogoro in surprise, obviously they had heard of this name more or less.
At this time, the bespectacled woman turned to look at Qin Zhibo, who was standing in front of the coffin, and asked: "Who is this man? It seems that his reasoning ability is better..."
Mouri Kogoro pouted displeasedly.
Upon hearing this, Qin Zhibo turned around and introduced himself with a smile.
"Hello everyone, my name is Qin Zhibo, and I am a detective."
