Chapter 824 You Repent
"Maybe it's the butler?" Martin casually speculated: "The butler has been in the mansion for a long time and can set up those traps. As for the motive... is the master's fiancée actually his daughter? Or is the butler and the fiancée true love? So he killed the master as well?"
"Oh... I am innocent." The old housekeeper's voice sounded from behind: "I have no relationship with the master's fiancée, and I have never murdered the master."
Vampire Martin turned around and said, "Oh, you didn't run away, but walked towards me instead?"
"Several young masters and young ladies just ran out of the mansion, shouting that there was a vampire attack... My old bones can't run anymore, so I thought I might as well come and see what's going on." The old butler explained, squinting his eyes to carefully examine Martin's appearance: "This gentleman... is the vampire?"
"Today only, guaranteed genuine." Martin said with a playful expression.
"Don't worry, this guy won't attack humans casually..." Hattori Heiji comforted the old butler: "And don't worry about him framing you. This guy always talks nonsense, and we don't believe it."
"Tsk." Martin was unhappy: "If you talk like that, I have to taste someone to see if he tastes like blood, chocolate or coffee."
"What coffee... I'm not that dark! How could I be as dark as blood!" Hattori Heiji was furious.
"Forget it. If it tastes like soy sauce, wouldn't it be very salty?" Martin shook his head again and said in disgust, "When people in Tianjin say a dish is very salty, they say it can choke people like a tiger. As a vampire, I'm already a tiger spirit. What can I do if I get choked again?"
"Besides, physics says that black absorbs heat. What if a hot-blooded young man like you burns my mouth?"
"Then you try it! Come on!"
"Wait! Stop arguing!" Sera Masumi suddenly had an idea: "Isn't there another person who has lived in this mansion for a long time and has the motive to avenge his fiancée? The daughter of the fiancée who works as a maid here!"
The maid had a weak aura and presence. Every time she appeared, she was either serving or heating up the dishes. Conan and Hattori Heiji forgot about this person.
"Yes! Uncle Butler! Where is the maid now?" Conan was awakened and asked anxiously.
The old housekeeper recalled: "Xiao Guang...the three young ladies asked her to borrow the refrigerator key before. She should have followed them, right?"
The refrigerator in the Torakura family's kitchen is locked. If Xiaolan and the others want to put the extra dumplings into the refrigerator, they need to ask the chef or the maid for the key.
Refrigerator... Conan suddenly thought that if the criminal was the maid Xiaoguang, then Torakura Moriyo, who had been missing for a long time, was probably also killed and was probably hidden in the refrigerator. If Xiaolan and the others opened the refrigerator and found Torakura Moriyo's body, she might...
Thinking of this, Conan hurriedly ran towards the kitchen, and Hattori Heiji and Sera Masumi followed him.
When I was almost at the kitchen, I heard the girls screaming again and quickened my pace.
However, after rushing into the kitchen, the dangerous scene they worried about did not happen. They saw Xiaolan and the other two leaning back against the refrigerator as if they were frightened, and the maid stood in front of the cupboard, with her head down, making grunting sounds as if a wild beast was swallowing blood.
"He Ye, what happened!"
Yuanshan Heye raised a trembling finger: "Miss Xiaoguang just rushed up and scared us..."
Hattori Heiji walked up to her and patted the maid who was still grunting and had no other reaction: "What are you doing?"
The maid turned around, not gnashing her teeth and sucking blood, but holding a dumpling in her mouth.
It turns out that the maid Xiaoguang was supposed to have dinner at the same time as the guests, but due to various unexpected events, the dinner time was delayed again and again. When it was time for dinner, she had other work to do, so she didn't have dinner. Then she heard that Xiaolan and the others were going to put the extra dumplings in the refrigerator, and she followed them after borrowing the key. After smelling the tempting aroma, she couldn't help but rush up to eat. After that, Conan asked the maid Xiaoguang some questions, and it turned out that she had an alibi when various events happened. And talking about her mother's death, Xiaoguang was very surprised that her mother was killed by someone. She always thought it was just an accident, and her expression didn't look like a disguise.
"What should we do, great detective?" Martin said leisurely, "Those guys are almost running into the woods."
"They will run away because they are scared by you." Conan sighed helplessly: "Do you have any solution?"
"Well... maybe there is?" Martin thought for a moment, then turned into a puff of black smoke and flew out.
This time it was the old butler and the maid Xiaoguang's turn to be frightened. Now the only person in the house who was not frightened by Martin was the chef.
Within a few minutes, the black smoke floated back, and when it dispersed, Tokura Mina was revealed wrapped in the black smoke.
In Tokura Mina's mind, she ran out of the mansion and onto the street. Just as she was about to run away from the minions of the vampire, her eyes suddenly went dark.
When the darkness dissipated, she found herself in the kitchen. She didn't recognize that this was the kitchen of the Yin Cang family, she just felt that the vampire was going to cook her into a dish.
"Help! Help!..." As Inakura Mina shouted for help, a hand patted her shoulder.
Torahara Mina turned around and met a pair of red eyes.
A purple light flashed in the red eyes, and then also flashed in Torahara Mina's eyes.
Inakura Mina, who had just been shouting loudly, suddenly became quiet.
"What kind of vampire are you? You can also control minds?" Sera Masumi complained.
Martin said confidently: "There are so many versions of vampires, and there are also vampires who can stop time. You, confess your crimes."
"I... I plead guilty... I am just too cute..." Inakura Mina said a string of incomprehensible words. It seemed that she was not the murderer, and these were the only crimes she knew she had committed.
"Why didn't you use this idea earlier!" Hattori Heiji accused.
Martin rolled his eyes at him: "I'm Batman, not Batman."
Martin then repeated the previous steps and did the same thing after capturing another person: "Confess your crimes."
"First, it was my eldest brother who committed the sin of arrogance... Second,..."
Then the cycle repeated itself, and all the people in the Torakan family were captured and controlled by Martin. It was only after Hanekawa Johei was captured that he confessed his crimes.
"I killed that old woman and Torakoto Masanobu who was to inherit the estate. After that, I will kill all the people who could get the estate. I will kill that maid and put the blame on her. Then the estate will belong to that stupid woman. I will marry that stupid woman first and then kill her. Everything will be mine..."
