Ép. 77: Richard enquête sur la famille Dufour pour l'amour de jeunesse de Gerard, au milieu de morts mystérieuses.

77

Richard is recommended by Heizo Hartwell to the Dufour family (Zelda, Zoe who is married to Mitchell Gray, Butler Weathersbee, and Roland, who is a burn victim, wears bandages, and is engaged to Nancy Nesbit) to find Gerard's first love. Harley also makes his presence known, much to Conan's dismay. Gerard falls asleep during his birthday party. Mitchell leaves to find Roland but instead makes an unnerving phone call claiming Roland attacked him in the dark with a knife; Richard looks below the balcony to see, who appears to be, Roland clinching a knife with his bare teeth. They rush to the floor below them and find Mitchell's bloody corpse impaled on the picked fence with a puncture wound on the back of his hand. A two day search for Roland ends with authorities pulling his corpse from the fountain. He had apparently committed suicide by consuming poison for a fire he started years ago, but Conan believes that both men were murdered by the same person. (Source: Wikipedia)
