Chapter 387 Yusaku Chasing His Wife

Conan didn't have time to think about it, and instinctively shouted: "Who's there? Stand up!"

The person standing outside the door heard Conan's shout, quickly closed the door, and then disappeared.

The door was not locked. After it was closed, it opened again by itself due to a breeze.

"what happened?"

Everyone looked at Conan with puzzled eyes, and even Machiko, who was about to leave, stopped.

"Someone was standing there just now!" Conan said with a serious face, leading everyone to run out of the yard.

There was no one outside the yard.

Ze Yu yawned out of boredom.

As a 'human master', Yusaku Kudo was just a wild one, a rare human being. Ze Yu had no desire to capture him, so he let him leave.

Well, since there are elf masters who capture elves, there must also be human masters who capture humans.

Ze Yu thought so.

Seeing that there was no one outside the door, not even a shadow of a person, Yixing frowned in displeasure and said, "Little ghost, are you dazzled?"

Yoshiyuki has shifty eyes, and his personality and temper are as bad as his appearance, so he is the first to jump out and question Conan.

"Yeah, I think so too. Conan must be blind." Ze Yu nodded in agreement.

Nonsense, he can’t even recognize his own dad. If not blind, then what is that?
Conan looked at Ze Yu with an aggrieved look on his face, and then argued loudly: "I didn't see it wrongly, there really was a mysterious person standing here just now!"

"Don't be ridiculous, there's not even a single person here." Yixing said with a look of disbelief.

"That's not certain." Yukiko said faintly: "Maybe, that person is coming."

"Who?" Jing Ziru was stunned.

"Who else could it be? Weren't you discussing him just now?" Yukiko replied with a smile.

"Could it be... Mom's brother?" Hiromi said in disbelief: "Is he really planning to come here to fight for the inheritance?"

"Who knows?" Xiuhe's face was gloomy and he walked back to the yard.

"Since that person has left, let's go back. It's useless to stand here like an idiot."

Everyone followed Xiuhe and walked into the yard.

Ze Yu followed behind everyone and said silently: "Someone is going to die again."

His voice was so soft that only Conan, who was following him, could hear it.

Conan closed the door and locked it, and then heard what Ze Yu said.

"Xiao Yu, what do you mean?" Conan couldn't help but asked in a low voice.

"What else can I say?" Ze Yu put his hands behind his head and said casually, "There is such an ancient well in the yard. Someone will definitely drown again."

"An ancient well is something that won't just appear casually. Once it appears before your eyes, something is bound to happen."

After hearing Ze Yu's words, Conan fell into silence, as if thinking about something.

.........

After a while.

Everyone gathered in the living room and ate today's dinner, a piping hot hot pot.

Conan had no appetite. He wanted several times to sneak into the corridor and observe the ancient well to prevent any accidents from happening.

But no matter how many times he ran away, he was eventually caught by Yukiko and beaten.

Conan's butt was spanked by his mother, and he seemed a little discouraged and didn't dare to run around.

Although he was still a little uneasy, after being beaten, he had no choice but to compromise and stay in the living room with everyone, eating hot pot.

Conan was a little absent-minded while eating the hotpot, as he was always thinking about the ancient well.

Until a scream was heard outside the yard, which instantly ignited Conan's anxiety and he rushed out immediately. Just now, Hiromi went out to add firewood to the bath water, and the scream that came now was hers.

Conan rushed out of the living room and saw Hiromi paralyzed on the ground with fear, looking ahead with a look of horror.

"Hiromi, what's wrong?!"

Yukiko and others also ran out.

"I just saw a man wearing sunglasses standing outside that wooden door, looking at here..." Hiromi said fearfully.

Ze Yu walked out with a comfortable look on his face and said casually: "Conan, didn't you lock the door just now?"

"The door was pried open." Conan raised his head, glanced at the door, and said with a serious expression.

"Don't worry about this door." Ze Yu looked at the ancient well and shook his head.

"Let's collect the bodies first."

As soon as the words fell, everyone's faces changed drastically.

"Collect the bodies? What does that mean?" Yixing asked puzzledly with a gloomy face.

He subconsciously felt something was wrong.

"Let's go and take a look!" Conan's eyes became sharp, and he was the first to rush towards the ancient well.

Yukiko is the second one.

The others quickly followed.

Ze Yu was the last one to come over, and he walked over slowly, looking at everyone quietly.

Yixing grabbed the rope of the ancient well, pulled it hard, and lifted up the bucket of water in the well.

A heavy corpse floated out of the well along with the bucket.

Everyone recognized her identity immediately.

It’s Machiko!

She is dead.

Up to this point, both wives of the Yabuuchi family had died in this old well.

"what!"

Except for the two children, Conan and Ze Yu, the other two men present all screamed in fear.

On the contrary, some girls did not scream.

From beginning to end, Yukiko was very calm, and the passerby character Keiko can be ignored. As for Hiromi, she had just screamed once and now she has recovered, so naturally she will not scream again.

Of course, even though Hiromi didn't scream, she was still afraid and terrified in her heart.

"Why is this happening?" Hiromi muttered to herself in fear, "Who killed my second mother?"

Everyone in the yard was attracted by Hiromi's scream. They stood there, looking at the corpse in shock.

The same goes for the murderer hiding among the crowd.

After suppressing their fear, the two men, Yoshiyuki and Hidekazu, took a few steps forward, took Machiko's body out of the well, and gently placed it on the ground.

"Could it be that Second Mother committed suicide by jumping into the well?" Yixing said in disbelief.

"It's impossible. Who would commit suicide when they are about to get the money?" Ze Yu shook his head.

Conan walked over to the body, examined it, and then said solemnly: "Grandma Machiko was stabbed to death."

Compared to Yoshifusa, who is already 64 years old, and his deceased brother, Machiko, who is of the same generation, is actually very young, only 39 years old.

After all, she was the second wife married by the head of the Yabuuchi family, so it was impossible for her to be too old.

Although Machiko is only a few years older than Yukiko, if we talk about seniority, she is indeed Conan's grandmother and an old lady.
