~7 min read 1,229 words

"Oh? Besides us, there are three others?"

"Yes, there are two teenagers and one lady. Among them, Mr. Hattori and Mr. Kudo both refused the invitation because they had things to do."

"Then who is the other lady?"

"It's me," a woman in a long white suit jacket walked out from behind; she was wearing gloves and holding a spray bottle in her hand.

"Long time no see, Miss Gunma Ikumi," Hakuba Saguru greeted her.

"Long time no see."

Her eyebrows were slightly raised, and her long eyeliner carried a cold and glamorous look.

"Miss Gunma is a former prosecutor of the Metropolitan Police Department," Hakuba Saguru introduced her identity to everyone with a smile.

Gunma Ikumi scanned the room, her beautiful big eyes stopping on Akaso Kaze.

"You must be the famous Lord Akaso Kaze."

"I heard that you are now a senior consultant for the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department."

Akaso Kaze smiled slightly, "Just helping out with small things along the way."

Seeing Akaso Kaze receiving the attention of a beauty, Mogi Harufumi felt a bit jealous, and he asked the maid: "Now that everyone is almost here, when will your master come out?"

A group of people had been here for so long, and they had only seen this one maid, but the master who invited them had not appeared.

"No need to ask, she doesn't know who the master is at all," Akaso Kaze said casually.

"Ah? No way." Everyone looked at the maid in surprise.

The maid was also very surprised: "How did you know? I really haven't seen the master until now."

"Hmm? Didn't you go to send the invitations?" Mogi Harufumi asked.

"That list was obtained during my maid interview. But that interview was too weird."

"Weird?" Hearing this word, everyone looked at her in unison.

The maid recalled the situation at that time and slowly told the story.

"Because the treatment for this job was very good, there were many people who came for the interview at that time. But when I walked into the interview room, I found that there was no one inside."

"There was only a computer and a banquet manual in the room, and besides that, there was a guest list on the table,"

"I read those documents according to the instructions on the computer, and then a sound suddenly rang out, and the computer screen displayed a line of words: [You have been hired]."

"So you didn't know why you were hired at that time?"

Hakuba Saguru held his chin, and the interest in his eyes began to grow.

"Yes. My contact with the master was through phone and email, so I don't know who the master is or what they look like."

"That's quite interesting; I suddenly feel a bit eager to try."

Hakuba Saguru deliberately glanced at Akaso Kaze.

The detectives present seemed to see the undercurrents hidden behind, and their expressions all became excited.

"That's really great; there are more and more puzzles for this banquet. When I saw that weird handle on the door, I was excited to death," Mogi Harufumi curled his lips and smiled.

Hearing him mention the door handle, everyone turned to look at the door.

There was something like a mark on the door, but the light was dim, and it was hard to distinguish what it was.

"It's not just the door handle!" Gunma Ikumi took the spray bottle in her hand and sprayed it towards the stair railing; she slightly covered the light with her hand, and spots of fluorescence emanated from the railing.

"I think that's probably the bloodstains left 40 years ago."

"Besides the bloodstains on the door, there are bloodstains on the wall, bloodstains dripping on the floor, and even some furniture is stained with a lot of blood."

"Although they were wiped off at the time, there are traces of blood almost everywhere in this mansion."

"Great, it was worth coming back to the country from so far away. To be able to uncover the secret hidden under this mansion for 40 years. Just thinking about it, I'm already extremely excited!"

There was light in Hakuba Saguru's eyes.

Looking at this dim villa, it was like seeing a very charming modern lady.

Akaso Kaze looked at these self-satisfied detectives indifferently and said nothing.

This mansion was a bit eerie, especially under the gaze of the Space Eye, where wisps of black energy were emerging everywhere.

But in an instant, they disappeared, which was very weird.

This mansion, I'm afraid, is not as simple as a house of gold.

Akaso Kaze perked up.

There was still some time before dinner, and the famous detectives all went around to investigate, wanting to find out the secret of this mansion.

Akaso Kaze was also strolling around.

Just as he turned the corner, he happened to see Mouri Kogoro played by Kaito Kid, so he reached out and beckoned.

Kaito Kid hurried over.

"Lord Akaso, what do you want with me?"

Akaso Kaze smiled, "Kaito Kid, you actually dare to meet me?"

Kaito Kid thought to himself, he really knew.

He hurriedly accompanied with a smile and said: "I specifically called to ask before, and I knew you weren't on the list, so I dared to come. If I had known you were here, even if you gave me a few guts, I wouldn't have dared to come."

Akaso Kaze looked at his pitiful appearance and couldn't be bothered to scare him.

"Alright, as long as you don't provoke me, I can't be bothered to care about you, but what are you here for this time? There are no gems to steal here."

Hearing Akaso Kaze say this, Kaito Kid breathed a sigh of relief.

"Because someone used my name to invite famous detectives everywhere, I stole Detective Mouri's invitation and came to see what's going on here."

Akaso Kaze waved his hand, "Go do your investigation, and if you have any findings, let me see them first."

Kaito Kid agreed with a bitter face.

Being summoned and dismissed like this, how did he feel like he had become the Onmyoji's little brother?

0 ......... .......

The entire mansion covers a huge area; looking down from above, you can see it is a square loop layout with a small courtyard in the middle.

Akaso Kaze is currently on the third floor; all the detectives' bedrooms are on the third floor, but they are located in different parts of the corridor, far apart from each other.

He walked around the corridor, and all the rooms were locked, but they couldn't stop the Space Eye.

Walking in the corridor, Akaso Kaze could always feel a tricky gaze coming from behind.

Someone was monitoring through a camera.

Akaso Kaze ignored her and came to the fourth floor of the mansion.

The layout of the fourth floor is roughly the same as the third floor, and there are some micro-cameras, and dark stains can be seen from time to time on the scarlet carpet.

According to Gunma Ikumi's previous statement, this might be bloodstains.

The situation on the fourth floor is the same as the third floor, and most of the room doors are locked.

Akaso Kaze finally pushed open the door of one of the rooms.

Of course, before that, he first used an illusion to block the monitoring.
