285. What Is More Terrifying Than Ghosts And Gods Is The Human Heart
Mouri Kogoro asked: "Why is there such a name as Cursed Mask?"
Su Fang explained: "Because Xiaobre Candres is a tragic sculptor. Although he is extremely talented, he fell into the trap set by his jealous brother. In the end, his status, reputation and even property were robbed. There was not a single bit left. From then on, Xiaobre completely despaired of human nature. As if he was possessed by something, he kept carving these masks. After he finished carving the 200th one, he actually ended his life. At that time The masks scattered around his body were all stained with blood."
"The scene looked like these masks were sucking his blood, so that's why the name Cursed Mask came into being."
Nagara added: "His reputation was restored after his death, and these masks were scattered into the hands of different people. Unexpectedly, most of the people who owned these masks ended up in tragedy. A certain bank in Eagle Country The day after he got one of the masks, the general manager accidentally fell off his horse while riding a horse and "died away."
"There was a jeweler from Faguo who was attacked by robbers and died as a result."
Su Fang continued: "I don't know when, but everyone in 06 thought that these masks would suck the blood of the holder. From then on, everyone avoided these masks."
Matsudaira was a little worried: "But now that you have collected these two hundred masks, are you really going to be fine?"
Su Fang replied: "You can rest assured that I have already asked a powerful psychic to seal all the curses on these masks.
Wu Fan complained in his heart: "It's getting more and more outrageous...even the psychic has moved out?"
Even Conan was a little speechless: "This thing is really getting more and more supernatural now."
Mouri Kogoro said: "But Ms. Su Fang, in the real world, human evil thoughts are probably more terrifying than any curse.'
Wu Fan said in his heart: "In short, what is more terrifying than ghosts and gods is the human heart. There is also a famous saying, the ghosts did not hurt me at all, but people left me completely injured."
Su Fang asked: "Why do you say that?"
Mouri Kogoro took out the paper he had picked up before and said, "To be honest, I was blocked by a big tree on the way here just now, and this paper was nailed to the tree."
"Mr. Mouri, to be honest, I received the same letter as this three days ago." Katagiri said.
Matsudaira echoed: "I also received the same letter."
Nagara said: "Me too."
Mouri Kogoro's face changed greatly: "Is there such a thing?"
Wu Fan fell into deep thought: "It seems this is not a simple prank."
At this moment, a man came over: "My company also received a strange letter.
Su Fang asked: "Winter, why did you arrive so late?"
Dong Dong took a letter and said: "I am touring the country. If I am a little late, please don't worry about me.
Conan asked: "Who is that person?"
Ran Mouri said: "Conan, you don't know?"
Wu Fan smiled and said, "Actually, I don't know either."
"Then let me tell you, he is the most popular rock singer now, Touya Aikawa." Ran Mouri replied.
At this time, winter has arrived in front of everyone.
Mouri Kogoro asked: "What strange letter did you receive?"
"The sender's name was not written on the letter, and even the addressee was written quite strangely."
Mouri Kogoro took the envelope, and Wu Fan came over curiously.
"This person wrote very neatly in order to hide his handwriting. Can I open it and take a look?"
"Well, that's up to you."
The contents of the envelope are as follows:
Tonight, the Cursed Mask will suck blood, and the messenger of the Cursed Mask will be corrected.
After everyone heard this, their expressions changed drastically.
Wu Fan thought to himself: "If the previous letter was just a warning, this should be Chi Guoguo's murderous warning. The so-called blood sucking actually means that someone will die, and it will be the same as the sculptor's death. "
Mouri Kogoro looked at Su Fang: "Ms. Su Fang, I don't think it would be better to call the police on this matter."
Su Fang said disapprovingly: "I don't think you need to take it to heart. Ever since I started engaging in charity, threatening letters like this have never stopped."
Soon, heavy snow fell outside.
At this time, everyone in the restaurant was eating with gusto, and Mouri Kogoro even screamed.
"This beef tongue soup is really delicious, and this bottle of red wine is not usually available. It's really great."
Wu Fan looked at Mouri Kogoro with half-moon eyes: "It's so embarrassing..."
Su Fang said: "To be honest, I am very grateful to you all for agreeing to be guests of this charity gala hosted by me so readily.
Katagiri asked: "Ms. Su Fang, I wonder if I can take the liberty of asking you a question?"
"Just say it."
"How did you come up with the idea of holding a charity gala for children who lost family members in car accidents?"
"Actually, I started engaging in charity as early as 15 years ago, but just five years ago, the woman who had been taking care of me all these years had a hit-and-run incident."
Mouri Kogoro asked: "Hit and run?"
"Yes, since then I can no longer remain indifferent to car accidents."
Inaba said: "Although the outside world often criticizes our president for seeking reputation, this is definitely not the case."
Ran Mouri asked: "What happened to the person who took care of you?"
Touya suddenly said: "She committed suicide. In fact, that woman was my mother.
Songping was a little surprised: "Is it your mother?"
"My father passed away when I was very young. After my mother died, I moved around and lived with relatives. I suffered a lot during that time. Fortunately, Teacher Su Fang helped me in all aspects. They provided assistance, so I am where I am today, all thanks to the teacher’s cultivation.”
"Actually, in addition to taking care of my daily life, my mother in winter is also my most important friend."
Dong Dong continued: "Actually, this publicity company has lost quite a few family members like me due to car accidents.
Inaba pushed up his glasses and said: "Yes, the teacher has been committed to helping these orphans caused by car accidents become independent."
