Conan: Another Famous Detective

"Ah? The case is related to me?" Officer Yamamura was startled.

Akira Hanomiya briefly explained the situation here. Of course, he appropriately concealed the part where Sawali threatened the office with a pistol and a bomb.

After hearing this, Officer Yamamura asked slightly uneasily: "Then... according to Detective Hanomiya's opinion, isn't that aura suicidal?"

"Judging from the current situation, the possibility of homicide is indeed higher." Yu Gongming said calmly.

"Wow! Didn't I make an unjust, false and wrong case? It's over! I'm going to be punished by the superiors now..." Officer Yamamura muttered anxiously.

Hanomiya Akira rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Officer Yamamura, don't worry. I am investigating this case now. If you can provide important clues, the truth will be revealed by then, and you will have made up for your fault."

Officer Yamamura was overjoyed: "Really? That's great! What does Detective Hanomiya want to know? I will definitely tell you everything!"

Yu Gongming secretly laughed in his heart that this guy was so easy to fool, but he said seriously: "When the police inspected the scene, did they find any bloody palm prints on the bathroom foot mat?"

"Um...it seems that there are indeed similar traces." Officer Yamamura said with some embarrassment.

When the forensic officers told him about it, he didn't pay attention at all because he thought it was a suicide.

"So, did anyone notice anything suspicious before and after the incident?" Yu Gongming continued to ask.

"Suspicious things..." Officer Yamamura recalled for a while and said: "In this case, a guest living in the next room next to the deceased once reported something to the police."

"According to what he said, he was about to leave the room at that time, and then he saw Ms. Mitsui running out of the deceased's room 205 with a very scary look on her face. The witness was so frightened that the witness immediately hid in the room."

Yu Gongming silently wrote down this clue and asked: "Is there any more?"

"Well, this... because it was handled as a suicide case at the time, there was not much investigation..." Officer Yamamura's voice became lower and lower.

Yu Gongming twitched the corner of his mouth. Police Officer Yamamura was indeed unreliable.

In desperation, he could only exchange a few casual greetings and then hung up the phone.

"How's it going? Are there any clues?" Sera looked at Yu Gongming expectantly.

Akira Hanomiya replied: "There is a more valuable clue. Witnesses saw Ms. Mitsui running out of Ms. Baihong's room 205 with a pale face."

Ms. Guangjing’s expression changed!

Zeli looked at Ms. Mitsui with cold eyes: "I also know about this matter. After the incident, I conducted a detailed investigation on these three people."

"Er Ping is a very neurotic person. Even if she sees other people's slippers not arranged properly, she will be very uncomfortable. My sister is more informal, so I don't get along with her."

"There is also this hot spring place. She always goes to the hot springs, maybe just to wash away the blood splattered on her hands."

"Wait! There is a reason why I did that!" Ms. Mitsui quickly explained: "I had a bad stomach that day, and I started having colic again when I was in Ms. Weihong's room, so I wanted to borrow the toilet."

"In the end, she said that she would not let me in immediately. In fact, I knew that she just wanted to embarrass me. She clearly went to the big bathhouse to take a bath, not in the bathroom at all."

"Huh? How do you know she went to the bathhouse to take a bath?" Zeli asked a little unkindly.

Ms. Mitsui said: "Because I was in a hurry to leave, I accidentally put on the wrong slippers. Those shoes were not only wet, but also very warm!"

"Eh? That's not right! When I went to her room, I saw that her slippers were neatly arranged, and they were not warm at all!" Ms. Erping asked in confusion.

"Ah? How could that happen?" Ms. Guangjing also looked confused.

"I think you were wearing your own slippers, right?" Ms. Tangchi guessed, "Maybe you have the kind of body that produces oil?"

"It's really rude of you to do this! I have dry skin!" Ms. Mitsui said in dissatisfaction.

"You old ladies are so noisy!" Zeli glared at the three of them: "Don't disturb Detective Hanomiya's investigation!"

Several female writers immediately shrank their necks in fear.

Zeli snorted and suddenly showed a trace of nostalgia: "But speaking of it, my sister used to think I was too noisy, so she gave me a strange nickname called Yingniao."

"Warbler?" Yu Gongming looked thoughtful, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

"I understand!" Akira Hanamiya, Conan, and Sera said almost at the same time.

The rest of the people immediately looked at the three of them.

"What do you understand?" Mouri Kogoro asked doubtfully.

Conan showed a confident smile: "I understand what kind of rules Ms. Weihong uses to give her nickname!"

"Oh? Little brother Conan, have you thought about it too?" Sera looked at Conan with interest.

Conan's confident smile suddenly froze.

"Tch~ I forgot that there is this guy of unknown origin... But forget it, with Yumiya helping to cover, it won't be a big problem."

Muttering in his heart, Conan adjusted his expression and nodded generously:

"If my reasoning is correct, then the rules for nicknames for Ms. Weihong are..."

"Color." Yu Gongming smiled.

Sera and Conan smiled at the same time.

Obviously, Yu Gongming's answer coincided with theirs.

"Color?" Xiaolan guessed hesitantly: "Are you using specific colors to associate with animals?"

"Yes." Yu Gongming said with a smile: "Let me come to the conclusion directly. The elephant is Ms. Erping, and her husband is the master of printing. The elephant refers to her husband using white ivory to carve the seal."

"The fox is Ms. Yuchi. She works in a bakery. Many people are used to baking bread into fox color, which is the color of the toast that Ms. Yuchi bakes in the bakery."

"As for the last Ms. Mitsui, she is a mouse. Her family runs a stone shop, and mouse-gray stone is a very common type of stone."

"By the way, Mr. Sawaguri's nickname of Warbler is because he is the captain of the Green Cap Survival Team, which matches the color of Warbler, which represents the color green. It was through this that I came up with this rule."

Upon hearing this, Zeli immediately locked his eyes on Ms. Mitsui: "In other words, are you the murderer of my sister? Damn you!"

"No...it's not me!" Ms. Mitsui shook her head wildly with fear on her face: "Let's not talk about whether Detective Hanomiya's reasoning is correct or not. Even if I am indeed a mouse, I really did not kill Ms. Weihong!"

"You still want to make excuses now?" Zeli gritted his teeth and glared at Ms. Mitsui: "Detective Hanomiya, since you have deduced the murderer, you must have obtained evidence of her crime, right?"

Yu Gongming shook his head: "Mr. Zeli, please be patient. I didn't say that Ms. Mitsui was the murderer!"

Zeli was stunned for a moment, then said with a look of disbelief: "Impossible! She was the last person to enter my sister's room, and then my sister was killed. Who else could she be if she wasn't the murderer?"
