Conan’s World Stand-in: Chapter 63 A real bandage freak?

"Ah? It's not very good, no matter what, you are also a guest..." Takahashi was startled when he heard the words, and he refused without thinking.

"It's as if you're not a guest, Mr. Takahashi." Guan Dounan smiled and turned his back on the guest, pulling Takahashi out, "I'm really interested in prop making and handcrafting. Mr. Bridge, let's chat as we walk."

"Ah, this, this..."

Takahashi didn't have the weight that a 200-pound fat man should have, so he was pulled by Guan Dounan and walked out involuntarily. The resistance from his hand also allowed Guan Dounan to verify his guess again - Takahashi's weight is far less than he said, so he must have really done a disguise.

"I don't seem to have heard Senior Guan mention that he is interested in this before..." Suzuki Yuanzi looked at Guan Dounan's back and was a little disappointed, "I originally wanted to invite him to play board games, but I heard that board games are especially helpful. The relationship between two people..."

"Let's not talk about board games, but boys should all be interested in things like mechanics and repairs, right? I remember seeing several uncles and young boys getting together in the park before. Chatting or doing activities, just staring at the excavator under construction for a long time..." Xiaolan said suddenly, and put forward her own guess.

"Is that so? I really don't understand them..." Sonoko tilted his head, still not quite understanding the beauty of repairing things, "It seems that it will rain soon in this weather, I hope they can repair the roof as soon as possible. Don't let anything happen."

…

"Then, classmate Guan, please pass me the glue over there, yes, it's the black one."

On the roof, Gaoqiao, who was dragged out by Guan Dounan, very "voluntarily" began to repair the roof, and he did a good job. However, although Guan Dounan said that repairing the roof with him was just an excuse, he couldn't really just stand on the side and do nothing, and also help him hand tools, hold a wooden board or something.

"Mr. Takahashi, when Miss Suzuki mentioned the name 'Atsuko' just now, your reaction was a little strange. Did something happen?"

Passing the glue to Takahashi, Guan Dounan asked in a chatty manner. When Takahashi heard this question, his body shuddered, and he almost failed to hold the bottle of glue.

"...Atsuko, used to be a member of our club. She's a very lively and cheerful girl." Takahashi turned around and said in a dull voice, "However, two years ago...she committed suicide."

"Suicide...for what?"

"...Everyone is already dead, and there is no suicide note left, and I don't know. However, I think something hurts my heart, such as being betrayed by a friend, or losing hope for my future. ."

Takahashi tapped the waterproof material with a wooden hammer one after another, hitting the waterproof layer just a little more firmly.

"For example, your own work was plagiarized by a friend?"

Takahashi's hand suddenly stopped, he turned his head sharply, and looked at Guan Dounan in disbelief. The latter still had a flat face, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

"Looks like I'm right?" Guan Dounan pointed at Takahashi's face, "Your expression has already said a lot..."

"...Yes, it's because of plagiarism, because of that guy, Chikako Ikeda!" Takahashi slowly lowered his head, his voice seemed to be stuck in his throat, and gritted his teeth, "The night before Atsuko committed suicide, she Called me, I was crying all the time on the phone, saying things like 'I'm so naive', 'I'm so stupid', I didn't think it was good, I went to her the next day and found that she had hanged herself …”

"Because there were no other suspicious signs at the scene, the police closed the case with suicide. Three days later, I suddenly received a stack of manuscripts from Atsuko in my mailbox, which contained a script written by her, but there was no signature…"

"At the time, I still didn't understand why she sent me that manuscript, but two years later, just two months ago, I saw on TV a TV series signed by the screenwriter and signed by Chikiko Ikeda. Although the characters The name and setting, as well as the details of some events, have changed, but that's what Atsuko's manuscript can't be wrong!"

Takahashi's emotions suddenly became excited, and the wooden hammer in his hand was shaking.

"I once went to Atsuko to question and showed her the manuscript. But she said that this was the script that Atsuko discussed and discussed with her at the beginning, and it was led by her, so this work was originally It should be hers... but if that's the case, how could Atsuko choose to commit suicide!"

"However, I can't refute what she said. I don't have any evidence to prove that the story was not created by Chikako Ikeda, and there is no evidence to prove that she forced Atsuko to death... Unless she was restrained by the guilt in her heart and took the initiative to say it. The truth. It's a pity..." Takahashi shook his head and lowered his hands weakly, "It's impossible, I can't do anything..."

"…I'm very sorry."

Guan Dounan didn't know what to say. If he used his ability, or let Asai be honest to read the memory of Chikako Ikeda, he would naturally be able to investigate the truth of the year. However, the main contradiction of this incident is "plagiarism", which is something that needs to be made public and given to everyone to read, evaluate and judge. Obviously, the truth investigated with the power of a stand-in cannot be directly put in front of the public, or even explained to Takahashi himself. .

However, since he can tell the truth here, the murder of the bandage monster that might have happened should not happen, right? After all, he has already put himself in the position with the most criminal motives. Once Chikako Ikeda has an accident, he will immediately be suspected of him.

Well...unless he's going to silence his insider. Guan Dounan glanced at Gao Qiao, the fat man with only a fat face seemed to be back to normal at this time, knocking on the roof one after another to block the leaking gap.

It doesn't look like it, and even if he does, let's see who is stronger between Bandage Freak and Xiao Hei.

"what!!"

There was a terrified scream from the villa below them~www.mtlnovel.com~ I heard the voice was a woman, and it seemed that Xiaolan made it?

"Hey, what happened? Is it okay?"

Guan Dounan was lying on the roof and asked loudly, while Gao Qiao was lying beside him, looking down with his head outstretched.

"Bang, bandage..." Xiaolan's trembling voice came from inside, "Just now, there was a strange man covered in bandages, holding an axe and trying to kill Conan. I kicked it when I found out, and then..."

"The bandaged monster, along with the axe, disappeared out of thin air... It disappeared after being kicked by Sister Xiao Lan."

Conan took the second half of the sentence, and there was some fright in his tone. But Guan Dounan read other information from it—Xiao Lan can get in touch with the bandage weirdo, so at least it should not be a stand-in, or not an ordinary stand-in.

Does this guy have another backhand? Guan Dounan looked at Takahashi next to him, his face was facing downwards, his expression was unclear, but his body seemed to tremble slightly, whether it was excitement or fear.
