Chapter 439 The Onibaba Legend Murder Case 3

They brought her body inside since it was raining outside.

Yuuki checked her body and shook his head, "Not good, the carotid artery was cut by a sharp tool, and she had lost too much blood."

"It's already too late," Haibara said.

"H - hey, d - don't talk nonsense!!" Fuuga was scared. He didn't expect his patron to be killed by someone in this mountain.

"The question is who did it and with what tool? And why did he have to do it on the mountain?" Yuuki said.

Conan also thought the same and felt this case was quite strange.

"Sharp tool in the mountain...Could it be..."

"...."

"Ya....Yamanba!!!"

"Oh, dear because of the rain both of the ambulance and the police need more than 1 hour to get her...." Iwae said and closed the door.

Mitsuhiko, who heard the sound, turned his head and startled, "UWAAAAAA!!" He looked at Iwae and thought this was a real Yamanba.

"Do you still think I'm a real Yamanba?" Iwae looked quite speechless.

"May I use the bathroom for a while?" Adachi asked.

"I don't mind," Iwae said.

Adachi wanted to clean the blood on his hands but he wasn't sure where the bathroom was, "Where?"

"Go through the sliding door next to the fish tank if you're looking for the bathroom, turn left and it's at the end of the corridor," Fuuga said.

"See it before the kitchen."

They were waiting for an hour and the police came to check the criminal location.

Yuuki looked at this police officer and saw him quite familiar with Conan. He knew that this police must have seen Conan in a lot of cases. He had learned the name of this police officer is Misao Yamamura.

Misao started to describe the criminal chronology to everyone and checked whether it was true, "So? According to the chronology, when everyone got to where the body was, someone was already by its side...."

"Ah, that'd be me," Adachi answered.

"Eh? No way! You're the culprit???" Misao looked at him with surprise.

"Ah...No..." Adachi was quite perplexed by this detective. He explained that he heard the scream earlier and hurriedly came to the outside to help her only it was already too late. He also told him that he didn't see anyone since it was too dark.

"Do you have any relationship with the victim?" Misao asked.

"No," Adachi said.

"She is a client of both me and Adachi-San," Fuuga answered.

Misao started to ask the grandma and his group. He looked at Conan with an annoyed expression and thought that this kid had been cursed by someone. He looked at him and was quite surprised at his name, "Yuuki Ichijou, where have I heard that name?"

Yuuki took off his glasses and said, "Probably my manga or you saw me on the TV."

Misao was surprised to see him, "Ah, I'm your fan!! Please, sign my shirt! Ah, can you also take a photo with me?"

His actions made everyone look at him with speechless expressions. They weren't sure whether this guy was reliable or not.

"Sure, but we need to solve this case first," Yuuki answered.

"Ahem, good, we need to solve this case as soon as possible," Misao looked very spirited when he heard that he would get his sign and photo.

"Do you know anything?" Conan asked him.

"Hmm, I'm not sure, first we need to find the weapon before we can start," Yuuki answered.

"That's true," Conan nodded.

They knew that the culprit must be using a sharp weapon to kill her. They could only wait for the police to find the weapon until they could continue with their progress.

---

"We have concluded that both the culprit and the weapon are inside this house," Misao said.

"What! How can you conclude something like that! Show us the evidence before you make that kind of conclusion!" Fuuga became agitated when they included him as a suspect.

"Fuuga, calm down," Adachi held on to his shoulder.

Misao got annoyed by him and said, "We didn't find anything outside, there is also no footprints before we can clear your account we need you to show us every sharp object you have!"

They didn't have any choice and showed any sharp object they had in their luggage and inside this house.

"T - this, why did you bring a lot of sharp objects!!" Misao looked at them with a suspicious expression.

"It's obvious that we came here to camp," Agasa shook his head looking at him.

Misao checked everyone and used a luminol test but the test was negative. They couldn't find a trace of blood coming from those sharp objects.

Yuuki looked at the dirty floor and frowned. He remembered that it was Conan who didn't wear his shoes when he went outside. He wore his sandals and it was fine. He suddenly remembered that everyone was using a different kind of footwear during that time.

'If I'm not wrong, it should be him,' Yuuki thought, but he still couldn't find the weapon. He looked around and noticed Ayumi was looking at the goldfish with a worried expression.

"Ayumi, what's wrong?" Yuuki asked.

"Ah, Onii-Chan, the goldfish is thirsty," Ayumi answered.

"Thirsty?" Yuuki titled his head.

"Yeah, look the water has decreased from before," Ayumi pointed her finger at the dirt mark on the aquarium.

"This is?" Yuuki was surprised looking at that something. He knew that this was the weapon that was used by the killer to kill Akene.

"Ayumi, don't give them water, they're not thirsty," Yuuki said.

"Eh?" Ayumi looked surprised.

"They have done a lot of hard work, let them take a rest for a while since I have solved this case," Yuuki said while looking at the killer.
