Conan: Another Famous Detective

Conan looked at the miniature city-like model in front of him, and the corners of his mouth gradually raised:

"So that's it. Because of my relationship, Mayor Okamoto stepped down, and the town building plan of Nishitama City was immediately stopped. The efforts of the designer of this town building plan were also wasted, so he has a grudge against me..."

"Based on the previous discussion with Hanomiya, the criminal responsible for this serial bombing case, including the previous serial arson case, is Moritani Teiji!"

Conan frowned again when he thought of this.

"It's just that this is just speculation after all. There is currently no concrete evidence to prove... Wait, according to Hanomiya's account, when he was in Greenland Park, the prisoner was disguised as a man wearing a coat, sunglasses and a hat. A man with a beard...maybe..."

Conan's eyes lit up, he turned off the lights, closed the door, left the exhibition room, and walked towards the study.

Coming to the study, turning on the light, Conan began to search around.

"Well... there is a humanoid armor here... you can use the feathers on it... eh? Found it, a black ball pen and scissors!"

Conan got what he wanted and was about to leave the study when he glanced casually and paused.

"Strange, why is there a lighter on the low table in the study? I remember that Teiji Moritani always used matches to light his pipes when he smoked, and if it is for guests, the lighter should be placed in the living room..."

Conan came to the low table, picked up the exquisite lighter and looked at it carefully:

"Huh? There is a knob at the bottom of the lighter. Open it and take a look..."

Conan turned the knob. As soon as the knob left the lighter, a battery fell out with a "click" sound.

"Oh? Battery? Could it be that this lighter is..." Conan's expression moved slightly, and the next moment, the corners of his mouth gradually raised:

"Hmph! Now Moritani Teiji can't deny it no matter what!"

…………

In the living room.

"Well, these are the people I have issues with, but most of them are normal competitions between peers, or some conflicts in design concepts. I feel there is no need to do such crazy things just for this matter..." Moritani Emperor Erdao.

"We will investigate the people you mentioned one by one when we return. Thank you for your help. We will contact you again if anything happens in the future. Sorry for bothering you." Officer Memu stood up and was about to leave.

"It doesn't matter. It is a citizen's duty to cooperate with the police investigation. In fact, I can't help much." Moritani Teiji said with a smile.

Officer Memu was about to say a few words when his cell phone suddenly rang.

"Ah! Sorry, it's my mobile phone." Yu Gongming took out his mobile phone with a smile and answered the call.

"Hello! Hanomiya, I am Kudo Shinichi."

"Oh? Kudo?" Akira Yumiya raised his eyebrows.

"Is this the call from Brother Kudo?" Officer Megure asked in surprise.

"Hanomiya, please send everyone to the exhibition room on the second floor. I already know who the murderer of this case is!"

"I understand." Yu Gongming nodded slightly, put down the phone, and said to Officer Megure and others:

"Let's go to the exhibition room on the second floor. Kudo said that he already knows the murderer of this serial bombing."

"What!?" Except for Mengyu, everyone looked shocked.

"I think Kudo will explain it in detail when we get to the exhibition room." Akira Hanomiya said with a smile.

"Professor Moritani, can we visit your exhibition room?" Officer Megure looked at Moritani Teiji.

"Of course, but I have to go to the study to get something first." Moritani Teiji's expression was a little unnatural.

…………

Moritani Teiji closed the door of the study room, put something he was holding into his coat pocket without leaving a trace, then turned around and said to the people waiting outside: "Sorry for the long wait, the exhibition room is on the second floor, please follow me. I come."

Under the guidance of Moritani Teiji, several people came to the exhibition room.

Opening the door of the exhibition room, Moritani Teiji glanced at him, and his expression suddenly changed!

The model of Nishitama City, which was originally covered with black cloth, was now completely exposed to the light!

But he clearly remembered that when he left the exhibition room for the last time, the model was still covered in black cloth.

The unexpected change cast a haze over Moritani Teiji's heart.

Everyone entered the exhibition room.

Officer Shiratori looked around curiously, examining the photos of buildings on the wall, while Officer Megure looked at Akira Hanomiya:

"Brother Hanomiya, please let Brother Kudo start."

Akira Hanomiya nodded slightly and put the phone to his ear: "Kudo, we have arrived at the exhibition room. I will turn on the speakerphone and leave the rest of the time to you."

With that said, Yu Gongming had already pressed the hands-free button.

The voice belonging to Shinichi echoed in the exhibition room:

"Please come to the exhibition room. Next, I will tell you who the real murderer of this series of explosions and arson incidents is!"

"Who is it?" Officer Megure asked cooperatively.

Officer Megure is very familiar with this detective reasoning process!

"The perpetrator of today's serial explosions, including the previous serial arson incidents, is...Professor Moritani Teiji!"

"What!?"

"How can this be!?"

Officers Megure and Shiratori were in disbelief at Shinichi's conclusion.

"Everyone, please be patient and listen to me first..." Shinichi said calmly:

"Professor Moritani is a very excellent architect. He especially admires British classical symmetrical architecture. He has a persistence in left-right symmetry that is difficult for ordinary people to understand."

"According to my investigation, Professor Moritani's original name was Sadaharu, and later it was changed to the symmetrical Teiji. In addition, according to the descriptions of Hanomiya and Mengyu, Professor Moritani's afternoon tea snacks, from the presentation to the style, are also Symmetrical."

"It can be seen from these details that Professor Moritani is almost paranoid about symmetry!"

"After he turned 30, he designed the Ring Line Sumida Canal Bridge. From then on he began to become famous and designed a variety of outstanding buildings."

"Perhaps from a certain moment, he thought about destroying the works of his youth that did not conform to his symmetrical aesthetic."

"Oh? He criticized some current architects on the day of afternoon tea, and just now in the living room, he was indeed quite dissatisfied with the architecture of his youth." Akira Hanomiya opened his mouth in time to add arguments for Shinichi.

"Yes, take a closer look at the burned buildings and the Sumida Canal Bridge that was almost blown up today." Shinichi said.

Officer Shiratori and Officer Megure immediately came to those photos and observed them carefully.

Officer Shiratori, who has some research on architecture, immediately discovered the problem: "Sure enough, including the Sumida Canal Bridge, the four houses that were previously burned by arson, including Kurokawa, Mizushima, Yasuda, and Akutsu, are not completely symmetrical! "

"So, Professor Moritani does have a motive for committing the crime... But since his main target is the building he built when he was young, why would he challenge you?" Officer Megure asked doubtfully.

"I think I know the reason." Yu Gongming smiled.
