Liangsi carefully followed the stairs to the basement, and only then did light gradually rise from the darkness.
"The light came from behind that door.”The young policeman hid behind Liangsi and said while trembling.
The door was ajar. Liangsi walked over gently and saw a room separated by a fence through the crack in the door. It was like a prison cell.
"You must have had a nightmare again, but it was already five years ago. Quickly forget about him. After all, the dead won't come back.”The woman in black knelt in front of the fence and said sadly.
"Ah!" Shrill screams suddenly erupted from the fence, and the young policeman was so scared that he took a few steps back. Only then did Liangsi see a young man locked inside.
"Alright, alright, hurry up and eat.”The woman in black tried to comfort the young man and handed him the food.
"I didn't lock you up here to make you suffer, do you know that, Akio? Mom is doing this for your future.”The woman's face was filled with tears.
"Is this your so-called love?”
Liangsi pushed the door open and walked into the room. The young policeman tried to hold him back, but he was too strong, so he could only follow behind him and stand in front of the woman in black.
"Who are you? How did you find this place?”The woman looked at them in surprise and quickly picked up a fruit knife from the ground.
"The house that I haven't lived in for five years is actually spotless. Even the curtains are so new. There was also the small wooden door in the grass. Compared to the ancient building, it seemed much newer. This was done five years ago, right? It was to hide the fact that there was someone in the house and to get your son off the hook!”
"What do you mean?" The woman was ready to attack.
"Five years ago, your husband was killed, and you and your son disappeared. So you've been here all along. Why would he be willing to stay in a place without sunlight? It's probably because you want to help your son get away with it!”
"Ah!" The young man cried out in pain. For the past five years, he had been in this dark place, and he had been repenting all the time.
Five years ago, in the spring, Akio failed his third college entrance examination again. As the head of the family, his father was furious and extremely disappointed in him. He even said that he was the scum of the family.
Akio, who had been oppressed, could no longer endure his father's harsh humiliation. In a fit of anger, he picked up the candlestick on the table and accidentally killed his father.
After her mother found out, she faked the scene as a robbery and murder in an attempt to get Akio off the hook. However, Akio, who felt guilty, wanted to turn himself in. In order to protect her son, her mother had no choice but to lock him in the basement and wait for the retroactive period to expire.
"Let your son turn himself in, Madam.”The young policeman shouted at the woman.
Akio's tears ran down his thin face. This was the first time his mother had heard her son's inner thoughts. She realized that her love had always been a burden to him. She opened the cell door with trembling hands.
"I want to atone for my sins."
Akio sobbed as he reached out his hands. The young police officer handcuffed him.
"Chirp!"
Little Bat brought good news again.
"Congratulations, Master, for finding the real murderer. You are rewarded with 50 pet food, 1 feeding times, and a chance to draw a lottery.”
As he spoke, a colorful wheel appeared in front of Liangsi. After waiting for more than ten seconds, Liangsi shouted," Stop!"
" Beautiful " Liangsi was very satisfied with this skill.
The other police officer heard the noise and came over. The two of them took the mother and son away.
After collecting the evidence, Liangsi was about to leave when he heard some rustling outside the door.
"Hey, what did you find?" It was a hoarse boy's voice.
"Uh, there's no devil."
"Let's split up and look around. This place is so big.”
Then, he heard footsteps leaving.
"Eh? The voice just now was a little familiar, like…like Conan!!”Liangsi suddenly understood and quickly chased after him. The figure that he could endure even if he turned into ashes was Conan!
"So he brought a group of little ghosts to explore.”Coming to his door for nothing and letting him play, Liangsi wouldn't miss this opportunity.
Liangsi still remembered that when she searched Akio's room, she saw many of his childhood toys.
He rummaged around and indeed found many treasures. Liangsi fixed a string of small colored lights on a mask and put on a black cloak. He also took the plastic bone sickle that was standing at the door. Liangsi, who had adjusted his tone, hid at the side and waited for an opportunity to move.
While Conan was patiently searching, a strange black shadow suddenly appeared in the distance. Before he could think about it, he chased after her.
The black shadow ran and stopped, as if it was luring him forward. However, when they reached the end of the corridor, the black shadow disappeared.
The thunder outside was getting louder and louder. Conan's heart was trembling. He stood up and wanted to return the way he came.
"We should leave immediately." Conan mumbled to himself to boost his courage.
Conan wanted to shout, but he was so nervous that his throat was dry. After running a few steps, he fell to the ground.
" Why don't you stay and accompany me…" An ethereal voice echoed in the corridor.
The monster waved the bone sickle in its hand and stabbed at Conan. A bolt of lightning streaked across the night sky, and Conan seemed to see his own flesh and blood splattering.
"He's too weak. A few drops of ketchup and he's already so scared.”
Liangsi, who hadn't had enough fun, took off his mask and threw Conan into the grass outside the door.
As for his other friends, they had already been coaxed home by Ryoji using Conan's voice.
