Chapter 781: Terrifying legend

~5 min read 833 words

Everyone took off their coats and handed them to the maids.

After Nagara Haruka took off her coat, she revealed a purple dress, which looked a bit like a fortune teller.

"Akaso-san, come and see, there are so many masks here."

Mouri Ran subconsciously scanned the room, and her eyes were immediately attracted by the glass display cabinets, pulling Akaso Kaze over.

I saw that in the glass display cabinets, various masks were placed, and most of the masks were very rare masks.

"Eh? What is this thing?"

Conan's eyes scanned the masks and suddenly noticed a strange remote control placed next to the glass display cabinet.

This bear child didn't wait for an answer and directly picked up the remote control and pressed the button on it.

As the remote control button fell, the red curtains on the walls on both sides of the hall slowly opened, revealing the wooden shelves hidden behind the curtains.

Everyone's eyes were immediately attracted by these masks because the color of these masks was that very pure pale white, extremely eye-catching.

The pale mask had no nose, and the two corners of the mask's eyes were very narrow.

A mouth like a new moon curved slightly upward, revealing an arrogant sneer, making the viewer feel terrified.

And there were hundreds of such masks displayed in the entire Mask Hall!

"What happened?"

"So many masks!"

"What is going on with these masks?"

Looking at the identical white masks on the wooden shelf, everyone showed uncertain expressions.

Although these white masks looked very simple on the outside, far less exquisite than the masks in the glass display cabinet, putting so many masks together made people feel extra depressed and creepy.

Akaso Kaze's eyes narrowed slightly.

From the perspective of the Eye of Space, there were no souls or ghosts on these masks.

But every mask was covered with thick black mist, lingering, forming a sharp contrast with the white body, looking very weird.

Seeing these masks, Nagara Haruka's face turned pale for no reason, and she took two steps back, just leaning on Akaso Kaze.

Feeling the fortune teller's body shivering, Akaso Kaze felt that this Nagara Haruka was a bit interesting.

It seems that she wasn't just talking nonsense at the door just now, but really had some intuition.

It shows that this girl still has some real skills.

He reached out and placed it gently on Nagara Haruka's waist, sending her some magic power.

Nagara Haruka immediately felt much better.

She looked back and looked at Akaso Kaze gratefully.

【Ding, Nagara Haruka has a favorable impression of you; current favorability is 2.】

Akaso Kaze raised his eyebrows; this favorability is really easy to come by.

"These are all Schouler's masks."

An old voice suddenly sounded.

A noble old lady appeared at the door, with silver-gray hair and a red shawl. Although her face was old, she still had charm vaguely, and she was followed by a short-haired woman wearing glasses.

The noble old lady in front of her was the owner of this mansion, Su Fang Hongzi, and next to her was her secretary, Inaba Kazuyo.

"It is truly an honor for you all to come."

Su Fang Hongzi smiled and nodded slightly, saying to Akaso Kaze: "Akaso-sama, what do you think? Is my proudest collection okay?"

Akaso Kaze smiled without saying a word.

You put so many weird things at home and are invaded by black energy every day; it's really lucky that you didn't die.

Nagara Haruka had already recovered her composure at this time, and she suddenly asked: "Su Fang-sama, the Xiao Bu'er masks you mentioned just now refer to these masks placed on the wall?"

"Yes, these are the legendary two hundred masks completed by the sculptor Xiao Bu'er Kangdeleisi from Spain shortly before his death."

Nagara Haruka's face changed slightly: "Sure enough, this is the legendary cursed mask."

"Cursed mask?!"

Mouri Kogoro and Conan's expressions changed suddenly after hearing this.

The strange letter pinned to the dead tree blocking the road earlier, the writer called himself the Cursed Mask Messenger.

Mouri Kogoro couldn't help but ask: "Su Fang-sama, why are these masks called cursed masks?"

"Because Xiao Bu'er Kangdeleisi was a tragic sculptor. Although he was gifted, he was jealous of his brother who was jealous of him, fell into the trap set by his brother, and finally his reputation, status, and property were all snatched away by his brother."

Su Fang Hongzi looked at the white masks on the wall and said with regret: "Since being betrayed by his own brother, Xiao Bu'er has been completely desperate for human nature, and it seems like he was possessed by something, constantly carving these masks."

"Just after the two hundredth mask was carved, Xiao Bu'er cut his own throat with a carving knife and ended his life."

"The masks scattered around his remains at that time were all stained with blood, as if they were sucking his blood." ===== CHAPTER 783 =====
