"Little Xun! Are you interested in going to that diplomat's place together?”Kudo Shinichi took out a set of fitting clothes from Maori Kogoro's closet and changed into them. He looked at the lazy Mud Mountain Xunxun and asked speechlessly.
"I think you just want to use this body to meet Sister Xiaolan as soon as possible. Then, you can encounter some other case and compete with that black panther from Kansai in terms of detective ability, right?”? Tushan Xunxun looked at Kudo Shinichi, who was playing with his hair, with disdain. After spending so much time with him, Tushan Xunxun had a deep understanding of Kudo Shinichi's temper and luck.
" Hey, hey…" Kudo Shinichi's eyelids twitched as he looked at Mud Mountain Seeker, who was clearly looking down on him.
"Looks like you don't have to look for them. They've already returned.”? Before Kudo Shinichi could say anything, Tushan Xunxun suddenly sensed something and said calmly, as if he was watching a good show.
"What?"? Because Tushan Xunxun's voice was too soft, Kudo Shinichi couldn't hear her clearly. He asked in confusion.
However, before Mud Mountain could repeat himself, Kudo Shinichi heard the crisp sound of the door opening. Almost instantly, Kudo Shinichi became nervous. Although Kudo Shinichi had suggested to go to Xiaolan and the others, he was not ready at all, nor did he find a good excuse to explain himself.
"Eh? What are you doing here?”However, no matter how nervous Kudo Shinichi was, the door was eventually opened. Maori Kogoro, who walked into the room, was surprised to see Kudo Shinichi standing on the floor of his house, nervously swallowing his saliva.
"Forget it. I'm not here to look for you anyway. Where's Conan? Didn't he say that the kid was seriously ill? I dropped a murder case to look for him!”However, it seemed like Maori had no intention of letting Kudo Shinichi explain. Instead, he intentionally changed the topic for Kudo Shinichi.
"Ah, that child! When I came here, I found that he had a serious fever, so I sent him to the hospital. He's already receiving treatment now, so he should be fine.”Kudo Shinichi's eyes lit up as he quickly explained.
"Shinichi! Where have you been these past few days?" Xiaolan, who was following behind Mao Li, was also shocked when she heard Mao Li's words. She hurriedly ran over and shouted at Kudo Shinichi with red eyes. If one listened carefully, one could even hear the sobbing tone in Xiao Lan's voice.
" I…" Kudo Shinichi looked at Xiaolan, who was on the verge of tears, and felt terrible. In fact, Kudo was already hesitating whether or not to tell Xiaolan the truth.
? Seeing the two struggling, Mud Mountain Hunter felt a headache coming on. But as Redline Immortal, it was his duty to connect the two. He couldn't force them to do anything that didn't conform to the rules. Of course, this was Red Line Immortal's rule. People like Tushan Yaya didn't care about this at all. It was common for them to kidnap the victim and beat her with the memory hammer. Otherwise, how could Tushan Yaya have such a freakish 100% success rate?
"Uncle Mao Li, didn't you say that there's still a murder case that hasn't been solved? It just so happened that it wasn't far away, so he went over directly.”He shook his head. Even though he wanted to tell Lan and the others about Kudo, he still needed Kudo's approval. Otherwise, his mission rating would be lowered.
Mao Li was also stunned for a moment, but he quickly understood what Tushan Xunxun meant. He deliberately provoked Kudo, who had already recovered from his sweet talk with Xiaolan, and said,""I, Detective Mao Li, can solve such a small case by myself. Why is this kid following me? Xiao Lan, come with me. I'll show you how I solve cases!”
Mao Li then dragged the agitated Xiao Lan out. Kudo Shinichi had no choice but to chase after him. He didn't see Mao Li's obvious intention at all. He just thought that this uncle's daughter complex was acting up again. After all, this had happened countless times since he was young.
…………………………
"So, the murderer is you, old sir!”Roughly fifteen minutes later, Mao Li and the others returned to the crime scene. When they reached the door of the study, they heard Hattori's dull sentence. This was because Kudo Shinichi did not appear in this case at all. This detective from Kansai also found it very boring. Therefore, when he pronounced the verdict, he was very weak.
"Oh? Was that so? Then, how did you determine that this old gentleman is a mortal? Moreover, where is the evidence?”Just as the old man was about to plead guilty, a confident but weak voice attracted the attention of everyone present.
Hattori looked over almost as soon as the voice appeared. What he saw was clearly Hattori's target, the high school detective with the same name, Kudo Shinichi.
"Ah, Kudo Shinichi, you're finally here. Unfortunately, you're too late this time. Because I have both the modus operandi and the evidence. I hope that we can have a good competition next time.”However, even though Kudo Shinichi appeared in front of him, Hattori still felt regretful. What else could he say? He could only say that he was unlucky. This competition had already ended before it even started.
"Oh? I'm very curious about this case. Detective from Kansai, can you please explain the situation to me?”Although the persuasion department had already said that the case was over, Kudo still had a strange intuition. This case did not seem to be that simple.
"Since you don't want to give up, I'll restore it for you again. Officer Megure, please help me take out the key so that I can show it to Detective Kudo again."”Hattori smiled confidently. He had no reason not to believe his own deduction.
However, Megure, who had put his hand in his pocket, was suddenly stunned. The way he looked at Hattori changed slightly.
"What's wrong, Officer Megure?" Hattori looked at Officer Megure, who had not moved for a long time. He had a bad feeling. However, after going through his reasoning from the beginning to the end, Hattori did not find any mistakes in his reasoning.
"This is Heiji Hattori, right? The modus operandi you mentioned is probably not enough evidence to accuse this old gentleman!”Megure hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he said something that made Hattori freeze.
"How, how is that possible? Officer Megure, didn't I already restore the scene for you? You also saw the key slip into your pocket.”Hattori laughed dryly and said in disbelief.
"It's true. Although this key entered my pocket, it didn't enter my inner pocket. But when we found the body, the key was in the inner pocket. And I'm a little thinner than the victim. In that case, this reasoning doesn't hold water.”Mu Mu also heaved a sigh of relief. If this case was really solved by the people from Kansai, his reputation as a police department would be tarnished. Fortunately, this detective was not rigorous enough to make such a mistake.
Kudo took this opportunity to understand the situation at the scene from Mao Li and the surrounding police officers. He even carefully looked at the key left at the scene. After everything was done, Kudo's understanding of the case became clearer and clearer.
"Officer Megure, I think I know who the murderer is.”Kudo Shinichi looked at the key one last time and pieced together the clues in his mind. Then, he walked to Megure's side confidently and said,"
During this time, Kudo Shin did not pay any attention to Hattori, who was still in a daze. This was actually a test for him. If he could walk out of this setback, then he would still have the right to compete with him. Otherwise, he would just be a loser.
"Oh? Was that so? Brother Kudo, then you know who the murderer is!”Megure was very happy to hear Kudo Shinichi's words. This case was actually very tricky. He had no clue until now. Now that he heard Kudo's words, he heaved a sigh of relief.
"Yes, Officer Megure. First of all, the deceased was actually still alive before you came in. The real time of death will probably be after you enter.”Kudo Shinichi's words were also shocking. His first sentence directly overturned Hattori's and everyone's belief.
"What?! " Then, the criminal is…" Although Hattori was a little confused because of his failure, this did not prevent him from listening to Kudo Shinichi's reasoning. Especially when Kudo said that he had found the murderer. When Kudo Shinichi said the first line of his deduction, Hattori instantly found the murderer because the only person who had come into contact with the deceased was the deceased's wife.
"Yes, it's her. Mrs. Jiang, the Duke of Shi Village. Look carefully at the key of the deceased. The ornament on the key can be opened, and Mrs. Tsuchimura used this to hide the murder weapon, the poisoned iron needle. Then, when she pretended to wake up the deceased, she just had to insert the needle into the body. Because the speaker was on, the subtle pain of the deceased could not be heard.”Kudo Shinichi quickly revealed the entire process of the case, as well as the murderer, which shocked everyone present.
But in fact, this matter was not as difficult as they thought. In fact, it was just that the bystanders saw it clearly. The reason why Hattori's deduction was wrong was because he was in the scene at that time and fell into the murderer's trap.
In the end, Shi Village confessed everything, and everyone who knew the truth could not help but fall silent. This was a pitiful woman. Her husband had been killed by the deceased 15 years ago, and 15 years later, this woman's daughter had fallen in love with the deceased's son, and the woman had found out the truth about that year. According to human relations, it was really not a big deal for this woman to kill the deceased. However, the law was like this. Even if the murderer was sometimes very sympathetic, he still had to be punished by the law. Perhaps this was the so-called fairness?
