Conan: Silence in the Dark

"Huh?" Katsuo looked at him suspiciously.

"I want to ask, including the organizer, you have a total of thirteen numbers, right?" Asukayama Kenji deliberately glanced at Xiao Jing and Xiao Ai.

"Yes, exactly thirteen... numbers. Is there any problem?" Katsuo Koichi wanted to answer that it was thirteen at first, but after noticing Xiao Jing and Xiao Ai sitting on a chair, he said.

"Look over there. Kenji Asukayama pointed to the bed No. 1, which was located directly behind Koichi.

Everyone's eyes looked at the man who was already sleeping peacefully on the bed.

Xiao Jing noticed that Katsuo Koichi seemed to have just found out, and his eyes were full of questions.

"Does anyone know this one?" asked Katsuo Koichi immediately.

"I don't know. "

"I don't know. "

"Isn't it Zero?".

"One more?".

“......."

Everyone discussed as if they had nothing to do with the man in the bed.

"Logically speaking, isn't it true that only those who know the password of this place and the door will enter here?" asked Koichi Katsuo.

"Theoretically, that's how it should be. Katsuo nodded.

"So what now?" said Ikuka Motoshima with some concern.

"First, let's start voting. "Katsuo Koichi.

"Vote?" Sumiko Maruya.

"What do you want to vote on?" asked Kim Youxiang.

"Vote on whether or not we do it, but if anyone wants to leave here, they can leave the room at any time. Because it's not about forcing people to commit suicide, it's about following a decision of free will. Katsuo replied.

"What if anyone objects?" asked Xiao Jing, who was also here for her purpose.

"The principle here is unanimous agreement, and even if one person disagrees, then everyone has to discuss it collectively. Of course, those who oppose it must give their reasons. Katsuo replied.

"So now it's time to vote on whether to do it immediately, or to make a decision after discussing this matter. "Tomorrow's Hill Kenji Road.

"Of course, it was carried out immediately! It's rare that people have made so many preparations to come here, and now they have to stop because of completely unrelated people? You also want to do it immediately!!" Jiang Lijia, who was wearing a lace dress, was obviously dressed up carefully, and indeed put a lot of effort into what she said.

"Even if you ask me, I can't answer for a while. Maruya Sumiko, who was questioned by Jiang Lijia, said helplessly.

"The vote is not a matter of suspension or not, but of whether it should be implemented immediately or after a little discussion. Because if you don't want to do it, you can leave. Katsuo explained to Jiang Lijia, who was a little emotional.

"Then let's vote quickly!" Jiang Lijia said simply after hearing this.

"Then the vote will now begin. After Katsuo finished speaking, everyone was quiet for the time being.

"Raise your hand if you are in favor of immediate implementation. "

"Those who oppose enforcement, please raise your hand. "

As a result, except for Xiao Jing and Xiao Ai, and Hiroshi Takahata, who came later, everyone else was in favor.

"Then let's talk about it for about an hour and a half. Katsuo said.

"Why isn't everyone against it?" said Hiroyuki Takahata a strangely.

"It's our side that wants to ask you, why are you objecting?" Jin Youxiang asked rhetorically.

"Don't you think it's strange that there are people here who don't belong to our collective at all?" asked Hiroyuki Takahata.

"I guess that's it, huh? Let's call Zero for the time being, where did Zero know about this banquet? "Kenji Asukayama speculated.

"Maybe it's the person who was brushed down by the psychological test of the Internet? because he was not convinced, so he came?" Jin Youxiang guessed.

"Is that so?" asked Koichi Katsuo, who was the organizer.

"I don't know, I only sent you the location here. Katsuo shook his head.

"Anyway, Zero has already gone first. He didn't get in our way!" Jiang Lijia asserted.

"People who are indeed dead will not come back to life even after we discuss them. Daisuke Aibe agreed.

"That's true. Several of the other ladies nodded in agreement.

"No, I'm here to end it all with a happy end, but I can't let go of this situation now!" Hiroyuki Takahata announced loudly.

"Speaking of which, Katsuo-kun. Nanami Ryozo, a diminutive teenager, raised his hand.

"What is it?".

"We left a suicide note, right?".

"Are you saying that we are making a joint statement to a third party? I uploaded all the data to a server that I could trust. The password and account number were recorded in my family's suicide note, and the police found them so that they could be known. Katsuo replied.

"Then there must not be a word about Zero on it, and the police won't find it suspicious?" Ryozo Nanami said his question.

"That's right, that's why we're against it. Hanako and I just wanted to leave quietly, not commit suicide as murder suspects. Xiao Jing followed.

"Hey, the suspect? No, we didn't kill anyone. Maruya Sumiko, who is weak in appearance and personality, said with some fear.

"Then just revise it. Jin Youxiang said.

"Revision?" "Sumiko Maruya.

"Yes, you can do it, just write down what is happening now and upload it again. Katsuo took out his mobile phone and said.

"Tsk, smartphones are so convenient now. Xiao Wai whispered.

"Then that's it!" Jiang Lijia urged again.

"No, one more thing. Nanami Ryozo continued.

"Number 1, your bed is occupied, what are you going to do?" asked Ryozo Nanami.

"What?" said Katsuo Koichi, a little puzzled.

"You already knew. "

"Huh?".

"I can't imagine that as a host, the only person who knows all of us knows nothing about that person. Ryozo Nanami pushed his glasses.

"Indeed, as the host, you are the most suspicious. Xiao Jing agreed.

"You're really... Will you sleep here?" asked Nanami again.

"What do you mean?".

"I see. Although Xiao Jing originally kept up with the rhythm, her thoughts didn't completely keep up, but now that she speaks, Xiao Jing also understands what Nanami Ryozo means.

"Indeed, you just have to wait for us to sleep forever and leave, and the people here plus the zero on your bed are the thirteenth. Everyone's eyes sharpened when they looked at No. 1.

"When you think about it, you do have a point. Our implementation plan is to seal the room with sealing tape and finish it with carbon monoxide, and of course we also prepare medication to put everyone to sleep. Since you have this doubt, then I will be the first person to fall asleep, what do you think?" said Katsuo Koichi without panic at all.

"Since you've talked about it to this extent, I'm sorry that I'm thinking too much. Nanami Ryozo also apologized calmly after hearing him say this.

"Then that's the matter!Let's vote again, we have explained in the suicide note that we will not be treated as murderers!!" Jiang Lijia said to Xiao Jing and Xiao Wailing.

"That's not the problem. Xiao Ai waved his hand and walked to the side of No. 1's bed.

"No, I don't. Xiao Jing looked around under the bed.

"What's not?" asked Jin Youxiang.

"No shoes. The answer was Kenji Asuyama.

"Katsuo-kun, did you put the wheelchair at the door here in the first place?" asked Kenji Asukayama later.

"No, there's no such device here. Katsuo shook his head.

"Then let me confirm a moment. With that, Kenji Asukayama came to bed No. 1 and removed the part of the sheet that was covering Zero's feet.

"Really, children are so curious! If you go on like this, you can't do it at all!" Jiang Lijia complained as she looked at Xiao Jing and Xiao Ai here and there.

"I have a proposal. Jin Youxiang raised his hand.

"We can't go on and on, and it's already evening. I propose that each of us have only one right to request a discussion. After that, if only he is against it, then the rest of the people will ask him to leave. Jin Youxiang said.

"That's it, otherwise when will it be!" Jiang Lijia immediately agreed.

"That's right. "

"I agree. "

"That's right. "

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is not a place for forced suicide. Katsuo Koichi said with some trouble.

"If you don't want to participate, wouldn't it be better to leave?" Jiang Lijia said.

"I agree, what does the big brother think. Xiao Jing also said as the person who had just raised his hand to oppose it.

"Well... bar. Hiroyuki Takahata had no choice but to agree.

"If you all agree, I don't care, then start voting. After Kenji Asukayama returned to his seat, Koichi Katsuo announced.

"Your rights have been used!" Jiang Lijia looked at Hiroyuki Takahata with a very vicious look.

"Big brother, don't worry. Xiao Jing saw that it was rare for someone to oppose the execution as much as herself, and she felt that she had found an ally and was naturally comforted. At the same time, it also implies that he still has the right to stop once.

"So what if they still won't give up after we use the discussion?" whispered.

"I don't know, when they take sleeping pills, we tear the seal open and call the police?"

"Let's take a look first, and I'll talk about it next time. Little lamented.

"Then this time I won't ask for approval, and those who oppose please raise your hand. Katsuo announced at this time.

"Three votes against. "

"???" Everyone looked at Kenji Asukayama, who had just agreed.

"I've been thinking about this for a long time, and I feel the need to use my own opportunity to discuss it. Guys, I think it's him killing!".

"Did he find out too?" Xiao Ai looked at his face and solemnly said that he killed Kenji Asukyama.

"Is Conan's world full of cases?" Xiao Jing didn't know whether to be happy or wryly smiling now.
