Soon after

Mouri Kogoro and Ryuno came to the woods and found Ryuo Kei who had just finished practicing.

Beside Ryuno was a young woman in purple clothes.

"Hello, you should be Mr. Ryuo Kei, right?" Mouri Kogoro said straight to the point.

After seeing Mouri Kogoro and others, Ryuo Kei was slightly stunned and nodded: "Yes, I am."

"I am a detective from Tokyo, Mouri Kogoro. If you don't mind, I would like to ask you about the situation when you found Ryuo Koji's body."

Hearing this, Ryuo Kei said "Ah" in surprise, and then nodded.

Seeing that Tatsuo Kei's reaction was a little strange, Maori Kogoro stared at his face closely and asked suspiciously: "Do you have something to hide?"

"No, no. It's just that someone asked me the same question just now. It was a young detective with an Osaka accent."

"A young detective with an Osaka accent?!" Maori Kogoro was a little surprised to hear this familiar description.

Xiaolan also looked at Tatsuno and whispered: "Could it be..."

Tatsuno nodded: "Well, it should be Hattori Heiji and the others~"

Conan on the side had his long-lost glasses reflecting white light, and the corners of his mouth rose wildly.

At the same time

At the Torada family.

Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha found the "first discoverer" of the Torada family-Torada Shigeji.

He was the first to discover the body of his brother Torada Yoshiro.

"When I found the body, there was indeed a dead centipede next to it. Come to think of it, I seem to have seen centipede patterns at the annual sacrifice." Torada Shigeji frowned.

Fubuki Heiji asked: "Do you, Torada and Ryuo, have any connection with centipedes?"

"It seems that there is no connection, but I always see it at the sacrificial ceremony of horseback archery." Torada Shigeji recalled.

Toyama Kazuha frowned and said: "Could it be related to the Warring States generals? I remember that there were Warring States generals who decorated their helmets with dragonflies..."

Hearing the word "general", Torada Shigeji trembled slightly: "In addition to you, a detective just asked me a similar question."

"Detective?" Hattori Heiji was obviously interested.

"Yes, it seems to be a detective from Tokyo. I remember that his last name seems to be the same as that of a general! What was his name..."

"Is it Mori?!" Hattori Heiji was surprised.

Shigeji Torada smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes, yes! It's Mori from Mori Motonari!"

He Ye on the side also became interested and asked: "Are there other people around that uncle Mori?"

Seeing the two people in front of him so excited, Shigeji Torada was frightened and took a step back: "Yes, there are two young people and a child beside him. But I don't know their names..."

Hearing this, "excitement" flashed in the eyes of Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha.

Next, Hattori Heiji asked some questions about the incident.

And learned that six years ago, a man named Kai Gento also died in a strange accident.

This Kai Gento was a patrolman in Nagano Prefecture who had been a horse archer in the festival and was very popular with the local people.

Six years ago, he fell off a cliff during a practice and lost his life.

The first person to discover it at that time was Torada Yui, the widow of Shigeji Torada's deceased brother.

After asking, we learned that Torada Yui should be taking care of horses in a stable not far away.

After knowing this news, Hattori Heiji and his partner said goodbye to Torada Shigeji and prepared to go to the stable to meet Torada Yui.

Soon after

Hattori Heiji and his partner arrived in front of the stable.

Just as Hattori Heiji was about to push open the door of the stable, a woman's shouting came from the stable.

"Please let me go, my husband just passed away a few days ago! What happened six years ago, I..."

Hattori Heiji immediately reacted and someone was already asking Torada Yui about what happened.

As for who is asking Miss Yui... Hattori Heiji's face showed excitement, thinking: "It must be Kudo and the others!"

Thinking of this, Hattori Heiji went forward and pushed open the door of the stable, laughing: "Since she said so, you just let her go~ Uncle... eh?"

Before Hattori Heiji finished speaking, he suddenly found that the people in the stable were not Uncle Mori and the others.

The two people in the stable also looked at Hattori Heiji at this time.

A middle-aged man with a ponytail also turned his head and said coldly: "What do you want, kid!"

The man has a dark complexion, a stubble on his face, and wears a navy blue suit.

There is a big "X" scar on his left eye, and he holds a crutch in his left hand, which should be a problem with his left leg.After seeing the fierce look of the man, Hattori Heiji was frightened and took a step back, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly: "No, no, I'm fine. Excuse me... Have you seen a detective with a mustache and looks silly..."

Just then, a voice full of resentment sounded behind Hattori Heiji:-"A detective with a mustache and looks silly... Look back, does he look like this!!!"

Hattori Heiji: "(#°Д°)!!"

Mouri Kogoro raised his eyebrows and put his face in front of Hattori Heiji's face, staring at him intently.

"Ha, ha, uncle, I was just joking, joking..." Hattori Heiji scratched his hair embarrassedly.

At this time, Kazuha and Xiaolan on the side saw each other, and immediately crossed their hands in joy and stuck together.

Tatsuno and Conan also looked at Hattori Heiji and smiled and nodded.

A few seconds later, Maori Kogoro noticed the middle-aged man in the stable and looked at Hattori Heiji in confusion: "I say, who is that ferocious-looking guy?"

Hattori Heiji shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

The middle-aged man in the stable walked in front of everyone, reached out and took out a police officer's ID from his pocket, and said seriously: "I am the police officer in charge of this case, Yamato Gansuke, of the Nagano Prefecture Police Station."

After speaking, the man turned his head and looked at the woman behind him, and said rudely: "Okay, madam, I'll ask you again. Was there that thing six years ago?"

"Humph! Didn't I say I'm not in the mood to answer your question now!" The woman closed her eyes and said.

Hearing this, Officer Yamato grabbed the woman by the collar and yelled, "This is a matter of life and death! Stop talking nonsense and tell me!"

Just as Maori Kogoro was about to step forward to stop her, the woman suddenly said, "Okay, I know. I remember there was no dead centipede next to the body, only a dead horse..."

After hearing this, Officer Yamato immediately turned around and walked out of the stable, saying lightly, "Really? Sorry to bother you."

After Officer Yamato walked out of the stable, Maori Kogoro thought of something and asked, "Wait, do you know the centipede's Meaning? "

"It is impossible to determine at present. I can only say that if this case is not closed quickly, there will probably be more deaths one after another."

At this point, Officer Yamato suddenly looked at everyone and smiled: "It's like a battlefield in the Warring States Period."

Until Officer Yamato's back went away, Hattori Heiji complained: "This police officer is so weird. I think he is more like a criminal than a policeman!"

"Yeah, how can he treat beautiful women like this? !" Maori Kogoro also curled his lips.

After listening to the two, Xiaolan and Kazuha also nodded without refutation.

It was also the first time they saw such a "violent" policeman...

Tatsuno glanced at the woman in the stable and did not speak.

"Childhood sweethearts... When we meet again, she is already a married woman, and there may even be a suspicion of murder. No wonder Officer Yamato is so "irritable." "
