Conan: Another Famous Detective

Chapter 1007 The encounter between Xiaolan and Heye

"Everyone of the Tatsuo family." Akira Hanomiya said: "If our reasoning is correct, then Ms. Ayaka is probably one of the targets, so in the next time, I hope you can take good care of her and don't let her Act alone.”

"Ms. Ayaka, you are the same. No matter what happens when you go out, you must tell us until the murderer is caught. For the sake of your life, please cooperate."

"Yes! I understand!" Tatsuo Ayaka nodded.

After telling what had just happened, she seemed to have been relieved of a heavy burden and became much more relaxed.

The head of the Ryūwei family looked worried: "But, if the next target is Linghua, then is the murderer already hiding somewhere in our house? Otherwise, that sword..."

"Ah! This was actually done by us!" Hattori Heiji laughed.

Everyone in the Longwei family looked surprised at the same time.

Hanemiya Akira said with a smile: "We discovered Ms. Ayaka's abnormality yesterday, so we used this method to test her."

"The so-called figure in armor that Conan said he saw late at night was completely false. As for the red and black blood marks on the sword, it was just a mixture of chicken blood and soy sauce."

"Anyway, it's us who are inspecting it. In that case, you don't have the chance to distinguish whether the blood stains are real or fake."

"As for the door that suddenly closed..." Conan came to the door and picked up an extremely slender fishing line from the ground under the gaze of everyone in the Tatsuo family: "I just took advantage of you to be attracted by Ms. Ayaka. I secretly pulled the fishing line tied to the door."

"This..." Everyone in the Longwei family didn't know what to say for a moment.

"I'm very sorry for causing trouble to you. We will help clean up the blood stains on the sword." Meng Yu said.

"Uh, it's okay..." The head of the Longwei family said in a complicated tone.

"Okay, the investigation here is almost complete. We are going to go to the Torada family to have a look. After all, there is also a client there from six years ago!" Hanemiya Ming said with a smile.

Later, after helping to clean up the sword, Akira Hanomiya and his party returned to Torada's house.

Heye and Xiaolan, who had been notified before, were already waiting at the door.

"Heiji! You are finally back!" Kazuya said with excitement.

"Huh? What's wrong? You don't look good. Did you not sleep well yesterday?" Hattori Heiji frowned.

"Yes, yes!" He Ye nodded repeatedly: "You have no idea what we saw last night! Right Xiaolan?" He Ye cast a look of help at his best friend.

Xiaolan's expression was a little subtle, but she still nodded.

"What happened?" Hattori Heiji asked.

"Last night, a figure wearing armor appeared outside our room!" Heye said with lingering fear on his face.

"Have you seen it too?" Mouri Kogoro said in surprise.

"Ah? Do you also..." He Ye's eyes widened immediately.

"Uh, no, no!" Mouri Kogoro waved his hand: "Go on, what happened last night?"

"It's like this..." He Ye said: "Xiaolan and I were already asleep at the time, and then I was suddenly woken up by a scratching sound on the floor."

"I woke up Xiaolan and wanted her to accompany me out to see what was going on. Then, in a burst of lightning, we saw the ghost standing outside the door!"

"What does that ghost look like?" Hattori Heiji asked.

"It's just wearing armor and a helmet. There are a lot of hairs on the helmet. It looks a bit scary." Heye described it with gestures with his hands.

"Mao? It seems to be Takeda Shingen's Zou Fangxing's helmet?" Hattori Heiji frowned.

"I remember that Mr. Shigeji also had a set of armor used for sacrificial rituals in his room. Could it be that what Xiaolan and the others saw was that set?" Mouri Kogoro guessed.

"The helmets are different." Yu Gongming reminded: "But we don't rule out the possibility of just replacing the helmet."

"That, it is indeed possible that it is the armor used for sacrifices." Xiaolan suddenly said.

"Oh?" Everyone looked at Xiaolan.

Xiaolan took out a few ropes from her pocket: "Although I was a little scared at the time and didn't go out to look, when I left the room this morning, I found several such ropes in the corridor."

"If you tie these ropes to the helmet, maybe it can be disguised as a Suwa-style helmet."

"Eh? Xiaolan, when did you discover this? Why didn't I know?" Heye asked confused.

Xiaolan looked at Heye with some embarrassment: "That's when you asked me to come out and take a look in the morning..."

"Ah? That's it..." He Ye Qiao blushed. At that time, she was still a little scared of the figure last night. In the end, He Ye waited for Xiaolan to go out to see the situation first before she dared to go out.

"If the helmet is a disguise, then Mr. Shigeji's suspicion is very high." Mouri Kogoro said.

"Not necessarily." Xiaolan shook her head slightly.

"Ah? Xiaolan, what else did you find?" Mouri Kogoro said in surprise.

"Come with me, it may not be clear here." Xiaolan said.

Afterwards, everyone followed Xiaolan to the door of the guest room where they lived.

"Look over there." Xiaolan pointed to the yard below the corridor.

After a few people took a look, Yu Gongming immediately noticed something unusual: "Those footprints..."

"It seems like the printing on the straw sandals leads all the way to the back door." Conan said.

"Did an outsider commit the crime?" Mouri Kogoro asked, touching his chin.

"Not necessarily. It's also possible that he was a family member who was trying to create suspicion and pretended to be an outsider committing the crime." Hattori Heiji said.

"I'm more curious, why did that person do this?" Meng Yu showed doubts.

"Then let's deduce it from the results." Yu Gongming said: "The current result is that Xiaolan and Ye were frightened and told us about this matter. Based on our habits, we will definitely investigate this matter. "

"Oh? If that's the case, based on the clues about Suwa's helmet, we might return to the Tatsuo family and ask them about relevant matters." Hattori Heiji said.

"Then, someone will know about this. Judging from her reaction today, I'm afraid she will be scared enough, right?" Conan said lightly.

"So, this is a drunkard who doesn't care about drinking..." Yu Gongming said with a playful smile.

"However, I'm afraid this trick won't work now." Hattori Heiji said with a smile.

"Yes, with our explanation, Ms. Ayaka will probably not act without authorization, but to be on the safe side, how about you go back and help look after Ms. Ayaka, lest the murderer comes up with any new tricks?" Akira Hamiya said. .

"Okay, then I'll go to Tatsuo's house. If you have any clues, please contact me." Mouri Kogoro said.

"No problem!" Yu Gongming nodded.

Afterwards, Mouri Kogoro left.
