About twenty minutes later, everyone gathered in the hall downstairs, and the highlight of the dinner party, the"magic show", kicked off.

"Ye Ling! Come and perform the magic trick from before!"Yuanzi ran to Ye Ling and asked expectantly. She believed that Ye Ling's magic would shock everyone.

Huang Yi was surprised,"Oh? Do you also perform magic tricks?"Everyone also looked at him curiously, because Ye Ling was not a member of the magic enthusiasts exchange group. They always thought that Ye Ling was here to make soy sauce.

Ye Ling was not here to perform, so he deliberately changed the topic.

"By the way, where did Mr. Hamano go?"

Hearing Ye Ling's words, everyone discovered that Hamano Toshiya was indeed not in the hall. Kuroda Naoko, who was wearing braids and glasses, volunteered and said:"He must still be upstairs. I'll call him."

So she went upstairs alone, while Ye Ling was pretending to prepare to perform magic. The reason why he was pretending was because he knew that magic would definitely fail. As expected, Ye Ling was not ready yet, and there was someone upstairs. There was a loud scream

"Yeah!!"

The screams resounded throughout the villa, and everyone was startled. Conan and Kaitou Kidd's costumed Doi Takeshu changed their expressions, and rushed upstairs, followed by Ye Ling and others. thereafter

……

When they arrived on the second floor, they saw Kuroda Naoko slumped on the ground, leaning against the corridor wall, pointing to the open door of Hamano Toshiya's room with a horrified look on her face - a textbook-level performance as the first discoverer.

"What happened?"Doi Tucker Shuren asked first before he arrived.

"Mr. Hamano……"Naoko Kuroda still pointed to the room, but did not dare to look over there.

Everyone ran to the door and looked inside. Although the two girls from Xiaolan Yuanzi were mentally prepared, they were so frightened that they covered their mouths and almost screamed. Hamano Toshiya fell on his back on the floor, tilting his head, the whites of his eyelids were slightly open, and there was an obvious strangulation mark on his neck. The scene was very scary.

Seeing the marks of strangulation, no matter how stupid you are, you will know that this is a homicide.

Doi Takesuki immediately ran into the room and squatted down to check. Araki also reacted and hurriedly ran to call the police on the landline because this was in the mountains and there was no cell phone signal.

After examination, Doi concluded:"Within half an hour of death, the cause of death was strangulation of the neck by a braid similar to shoelaces and suffocation."

Conan looked at the strangulation marks on Hamano's neck, and something strange flashed in his eyes.

Strange... Under normal circumstances, when someone strangles the neck, the deceased will definitely struggle hard before death, so scratches called Yoshikawa lines are left on the neck. Why does Hamano only have strangulation marks and no scratches on his neck? ?

Just as Conan was thinking, Huang Yize ran back and said,"I have called the police. The police said they would come right away."

After Ye Ling arrived at the scene, he disappeared without knowing where he went. Now he just came back and said after hearing what Huang Yi said. :"Then let's all stay out of each other's sight until the police arrive. In other words, keep an eye on each other"

"Why? Yuanzi asked in confusion, and everyone looked at him.

But Ye Ling explained:"I just observed the situation outside in the house and found that there was not even a single footprint in the snow around the villa." To put it bluntly, the murderer did not leave the villa, he is among us"

"What?"The party members were all horrified,"Is one of us the murderer?"

Conan also looked at Ye Ling in surprise, with a face full of disbelief.

Why...why is he so skilled?

The moment he saw the body, his first reaction was to check the body, but Ye Ling went directly to confirm whether anyone had left. Passing the villa. Conan's doubts about Ye Ling had disappeared, but now they were reunited.

Who is Ye Ling?

……

"Are there any gloves here?"Ye Ling asked Huang Yize.

Huang Yize didn't know what Ye Ling wanted the gloves for, but he still replied:"Yes, they are downstairs."

"Well, to avoid having to go it alone, I'll go get it with you."

Ye Ling and Huang Yi went downstairs and came back up soon. At this time, Ye Ling had already put on his gloves. He ignored everyone's gaze and walked directly into the house. Doi Takeshu immediately stopped him:"Wait! It's best to leave things at the crime scene untouched until the police arrive."

Seeing Ye Ling's attitude, everyone can guess that he wants to investigate, but he may be the murderer, so it's best for no one to touch anything in the house.

"Don't worry, you guys are monitoring me together, and I won't have a chance to do anything small."Ye Ling said:"And I won't move things around. I just want to confirm one thing."

Confirm one thing? Everyone was puzzled, and Doi finally did not stop him.

Ye Ling came to Hamano's body and squatted down, reached out and took out his mobile phone from his pocket. He turned on the screen and found that there was a password, so He directly grabbed Hamano's finger and unlocked it with his fingerprint.

"It's exactly what I thought."Ye Ling whispered to himself

"What happened?"Aragi asked in confusion.

Ye Ling raised his head, showed his phone to everyone, and said,"Mr. Hamano is a transparent person."

As soon as these words came out, there was a sensation on the scene. Conan and Doi hurriedly came over to check. They saw that there were many emails from financial institutions in Hamano's inbox, as well as verification information from a certain gambling website.

That one All the system messages on the website called him"Dear Mr. Transparent Man".

The truth was revealed. It turned out that the transparent man who failed to bet 10 million on Master Harui's performance was Toshiya Hamano.

Ye Ling browsed the contents of his mobile phone. After reading it once, he put the phone back into Hamano's pocket, stood up and added:"The 10 million that Mr. Hamano bet was not his own money, but a loan from a financial institution. He borrowed so much money and made a desperate bet that Master Chunjing's performance would fail. In the end, he guessed it right, as if he could predict the future."

Everyone's heart skipped a beat... Such a crazy move, and Hamano was previously a backstage staff member of the Yokohama Opera House, where Master Harui performed. After the incident, Hamano suddenly resigned...

Could it be said that Master Harui's performance accident was related to Hamano?

Thinking of this, Doi, dressed as Kaitou Kid, cast his eyes on Tanaka Takakue. When they first met, Kid recognized Takakue as Master Harui's granddaughter. Could it be that she was responsible for Revenge killed Toshiya Hamano?

……

The sudden murder disrupted the calm of the party. Before the police arrived, everyone decided to go downstairs to check everyone's shoes, because the strangulation marks on the neck of Hamano's body looked like shoelaces.

When they came to the place where they were changing shoes, everyone found that only Sonoko’s shoes on the women’s side had laces, while the shoes of Ye Ling, Conan and Takesuki Doi on the men’s side also had laces.

"No one’s shoelaces showed signs of being pulled vigorously. Conan said.
