It was another music competition.
'Shinichi Kudo' came early.
If it wasn't for the fact that the band members couldn't be changed during the competition, he would have joined long ago.
A certain primary school detective looked at his other self from the corner of his eyes.
Hey hey!
You're not a member of the band.
Why are you here again?
'Shinichi Kudo' showed a fake smile that was used to coax a child.
How could he not know what he was thinking?
Of course, he wanted to protect Lan!
Also … he curled his lips. You're different. You're not a member of their band.
But he had been following them since the first time.
A certain primary school detective suddenly became a little guilty.
But he quickly expressed that it didn't matter. It was because he was a child!
This finally succeeded in making the high school detective speechless.
He actually used the reason of 'being a child'. This was really unbelievable.
At this time, Mauliland had already packed up.
The location this time was very far. Mōri Kogoro would send them there together.
Miss Ito didn't go with them this time.
A certain muddle-headed detective's car always met with some trouble.
For example, they actually got lost on the way.
Mauliland helplessly covered her head with one hand.
A certain primary school detective and the other high school detective's mouth twitched at the same time.
Fortunately, because the location this time was very far, they set off earlier than usual.
They set off a full day earlier.
This was a very remote town.
They didn't know where they got lost.
The map in the car couldn't confirm their location.
They could only think of a way to ask the people here.
However, this town looked very quiet.
They walked for a long time but didn't see anyone.
They walked on a little farther.
Then, they found a person lying on the ground in front of them.
A certain muddle-headed detective hurriedly stopped the car.
Conan Edogawa and 'Shinichi Kudo' immediately ran over from the car.
The Masumi Sera who had been following their car also came down to check.
This person was already dead.
And the time of death was less than two hours.
After some simple examination, a schoolboy detective came to this conclusion.
Shinichi Kudo, Masumi Sera, and Mōri Kogoro all shared the same opinion.
They looked around.
A certain confused detective asked Mauliland to call the police with a serious expression.
However, at this moment, Mauliland reminded him that they had just tried and there was no signal at all.
Mōri Kogoro's eyes immediately turned beady.
Indeed, he had forgotten about it.
There should be police officers in this town.
This was what Mauliland thought.
Thus, she immediately decided to run over to look for him.
It didn't take long for Mauliland to find the police.
It turned out that they were at the outermost side of the town.
Therefore, normally, no one would come here at all.
This was a town that wasn't considered small.
There was a very good shopping mall with many merchants.
However, even when they were inside, Mauliland's phone still had no signal at all.
The police officers here smiled a little embarrassedly.
There was nothing they could do about it.
There was a magnetic mountain in front of them.
All electronic devices would malfunction when they entered this place.
However, the people who had lived here for a long time had already thought of a solution.
Their house isolated the magnetic field.
This allowed other machines to be used as usual.
As for communicating with the outside world.
They also had the Internet and landline.
So that was it!
Mauliland expressed that she finally understood.
And this deceased. This town wasn't that small. The police also needed to investigate again.
In the end, they relied on his own driver's license to confirm his identity.
He was a team leader in a good company.
The police directly sent people to the company to find his colleagues, subordinates, and his family.
When she saw the body, his wife was simply devastated.
She just stood there and cried.
His colleagues didn't look sad at all.
When was the last time they saw him?
It wasn't a problem for the police here to encounter such a thing.
The wife said this morning.
And these colleagues said that it was noon today.
That was three hours ago.
This person had once shown up in their company.
At that time, he called a subordinate.
When the people in the company said this sentence, the man who was called couldn't help but show a somewhat embarrassed expression.
None of them knew what he said to this subordinate.
They only knew that after leaving, that subordinate threw a huge tantrum.
There was probably some argument?
Someone guessed so.
Meanwhile, the person whose identity was being guessed kept showing a meaningless smile.
He wanted to explain to them, but he didn't know how to explain.
At this time, the colleagues added.
They didn't know where he went after that.
The distance from their company to here.
A schoolboy detective stuck his head out to look at the map that the police took out.
This time was enough for them to go back and forth.
The man hurriedly waved his hands. It really wasn't him.
At that time, he was angry because of something else, something that happened before he saw him.
That person called him too suddenly.
So, he didn't even have time to release his previous emotions. Just like that, in front of that person, he had been holding back these emotions.
When their conversation finally ended.
When he finally left his office, these suppressed emotions made his original emotions even greater.
His girlfriend lost his work manuscript.
That team leader was a serious and somewhat harsh person.
Even if this matter didn't happen, he would definitely be scolded by him.
So he didn't feel anything special.
This person even looked at the people around him. They could prove that everyone was used to this.
This team leader was indeed not likable.
It was precisely because of this that these people reacted so coldly after seeing that he was dead.
Someone confirmed this person's words with a voice full of coldness.
This made that person very touched.
Fortunately.
Someone told the truth.
The victim's wife was in a bad mood at this moment.
She desperately grabbed that person.
He did it.
He must have done it.
Otherwise, why would her husband come to this place?
This place was full of curses, a place that no one would go near.
Who else could it be other than you?
A place full of curses?
Something flashed in the eyes of the elementary school detective and the high school detective.
That muddle-headed detective asked directly.
This made the police officer here a little embarrassed.
These things didn't conform to scientific common sense at all.
It was just some superstitions passed down from history.
This was the answer that the police officer finally gave.
It was always easy for some bizarre legends to appear in a closed place like this. If the people here hadn't gradually left, the people outside would have gradually come in.
This place would still be like before.
After saying so much, the elementary school detective still blinked his innocent eyes.
What kind of legend was it?
Everyone's eyes fell on the police officer.
In the end, the police officer could only sigh and say that it was a legend about greed.
A long, long time ago.
There was a very greedy and stingy mayor here.
He asked the people to give him all their savings.
He also asked them to do some very tiring and useless work.
Things like building a new house for him, redoing his pool because it didn't look good, and things like that.
He didn't give them any wages.
The people here were very angry.
But they didn't dare to do anything.
They just lived in this deep water day after day.
Some people lost their lives just like that. On that day, when all of them were working in the same place, the mayor was suddenly killed.
Legend said that he was lying in this place.
The police officer pointed to the land in front of them and said.
No one knew what was going on.
They were all together at that time.
But he was killed for no reason at all.
This was probably what God had asked his messenger to do in order to help them.
At that time, the incident ended with such an answer.
They lived a peaceful life for many years.
Just when they had completely forgotten about this matter, another person was killed in this place.
A lot of things that had been stolen were found on his body.
He died in the same way as the mayor many years ago.
The older people had lived through that era.
When they heard the news, some people took a look at the way this person died.
Then, they were surprised to find that even the way of death was exactly the same.
So, was he also …
The tyrannical and greedy mayor was a thief who stole a lot of people's property.
They seemed to be two very different people.
However, when these two people were put together, they could be labeled as the same person.
They were both greedy people.
They were greedy for things that belonged to others.
