Chapter 191 Hot Spring Hotel Murder Case 3

After the call was hung up, Ling Shi didn't even have time to tell Conan to be careful, but it was not a problem for the system to find Conan and the others, since they had left a mark after all.

Lingshi took a lunch box packed by Huang Quan and found Ida Ko at the hotel to tell Conan the news he had just given on the phone.

Surprised, Ida Ko immediately calmed down and assigned tasks. Takagi took two people to find the staff to check the surveillance, and the others went with him to search the back mountain.

Zero Hour was not with them, otherwise he would have been easily discovered. His actions were too decisive. Would he have to say that he had installed a tracker on Conan?

It seems that it is not impossible. I will write it down and use this excuse next time. By the way, I will put a tracker in Conan’s phone so that Huang Quan can check it easily. Safety first.

When I was about to leave the hotel at midnight, I saw a familiar-looking woman walking in front of me in a kimono.

Zero Hour: ...system.

System: This is the proprietress. Host, you probably saw her when Officer Ida was recording his statement and looking for an alibi. The only difference was that she was wearing a purple kimono.

Midnight: No wonder, if it wasn’t something special I really wouldn’t be able to remember it, so where is she going now?

Lingshi stopped his hurried steps and followed her. It was not right to go out at this time. It was too coincidental, so it must be man-made.

At this time, the system said faintly,

System: Host, do you really not need me to spoil who the murderer is?

Zero Hour: No need, just let it go. Just keep an eye on Conan and don’t let him waste his time.

The law of the protagonist's halo being immortal is nonsense. Zero Hour was not sure that Conan still had these bugs to protect him. Not long after coming to this world, Zero Hour discovered its nature.

This world only leaves behind the plot and characters and blends them together to make them connected. Perhaps there will be a protagonist in this unique world. Then, in this chaotic world, who is the protagonist?

In addition, the place where Zero Hour brought Conan this time is an undeveloped area, so even if there are developments that have not appeared in the plot, there is no way to guarantee its safety.

System: It doesn’t matter, Conan is just following that woman.

The system retracted leisurely, and Lingshi continued to follow the woman in front of him out of the hotel and came to a place similar to a storage room.

She looked around and then walked in. After watching for a while and seeing nothing happening, she followed.

Peeping through the crack in the door, I saw the proprietress move a cabinet and then open a secret plywood door to reveal the offerings inside.

Judging from the photo, it was a man. I saw people there lighting incense and offering sacrifices at midnight, but I couldn't disturb them, so I just leaned against the wall outside and played with the system.

Then, with my keen hearing, I heard voices from inside.

"Hey, old man, I told you that you've spoiled your daughter, but you still don't believe me. Now you're capable of doing something like this."

The woman kept on talking to the man in the photo, and her voice choked with sobs at the end.

Maybe she was crying, Lingshi thought, it was really not nice to disturb others at this time, but he was the one who bumped into them anyway, wasn't it God who guided him here?

After waiting for a long time at midnight, the sobbing inside finally subsided, and the sound of things being moved and placed was heard again.

It's time to come out. Lingshi counted her steps. As soon as the boss lady walked out of the warehouse, Lingshi spoke behind her.

"Would you like to repeat what you just said to the officer?"

The woman turned around, and Ling Shi saw her expression turn ugly. Ling Shi shrugged and continued:

"Hurry up! The police have already started searching the mountain. It depends on whether she can act faster or the police can find her faster."

These words seemed to have hit the woman's most secret thoughts. Tears welled up in the corners of her already red eyes, and she began to confess in front of Lingshi.

Midnight: No, this is our standard routine. After revealing your cards, you must explain your helplessness and difficulties to whitewash yourself or just expose yourself as indifferent.

System: There are also those who pretend to be stupid and refuse to repent and try to escape!

Zero Hour: Who asked you this! ?

There was no choice. Anyway, there was no rush at midnight. The system indicated that the distance between Ida Kou and Conan was getting shorter and shorter.

So I decided to listen to the helplessness and motives of this lady's family.

This story is quite sad. A year ago, a fire broke out in this hotel. After the owner sent his wife and daughter out, he never escaped for the safety of all the guests.

The boss could have obviously escaped, but something went wrong when he was rescuing the last four people. In the end, the boss was left inside, and the four people ran out in a panic at the last moment of the collapse.

But unexpectedly, Yang Yu, the daughter of the deceased boss and his wife, and the receptionist who greeted them at midnight, actually believed that those four people had killed her father.

The proprietress couldn't control herself more and more as she spoke. She hadn't expected it at first, but when she saw that thing, she knew that the murderer was her daughter.

But what should she do? Stop her, turn her in to the police, or protect her only daughter? She passed by the police several times, delivering water, but she just couldn't make up her mind.

The proprietress covered her face with her hands, unable to contain herself. She couldn't bear it anymore. She had finally saved enough money to rebuild the hotel, but this happened again.

I have finished listening to the Zero Hour story, so I will share my thoughts. According to the system, Conan's story has also ended.

Ling Shi: "Then you can only consider two things now, tell her the truth, or don't tell her. Anyway, Miss Xiao Jing and the others probably won't tell her."

Zero Hour is not good at reasoning, but he understands a little about human nature and analysis.

If he guessed correctly, Miss Xiaojing ran away on purpose, and Mr. Huankou was an accomplice to lure out the murderer, Miss Yang Yu.

The deaths of the other two people made them discover clues. They must have discovered the problem. Of course, it is also possible that Miss Yang Yu made a mistake and let Miss Xiaojing escape.

Anyway, it was time to end it. Lingshi walked over with his hands in his pockets to welcome the returning victorious team, and looked back at the proprietress who had not yet reacted.

"Tell her the truth and let her reflect on the person she accidentally killed. Only then will she be punished and freed. Otherwise, she won't give up even if she thinks of the two enemies still alive."

"Ah, maybe she already knows. I don't know if my little pillow has investigated this place yet. Madam, think about it carefully. They should be back soon."

Lingshi didn't say anything else and walked back directly. He saw Officer Takagi and others also walked over and waited together. After all, they were waiting for the same group of people.

When Date Ko and his group came back, they saw Ling Shi teasing Takagi. They were so excited that they shouted.
