Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

"And there was yellow powder on her sleeves, which looked like lily pollen." Chi Feichi looked at the bouquet of fresh lilies on the glass cabinet again, "When we first visited this room, There was no pollen on her sleeves yet. It must have been after we left the room that she reached to the vase while adjusting the table mirror and accidentally let pollen rub on her sleeve. I have not seen lilies anywhere else in this house. It's probably only in this room, and if that's the case..."

"Then, the pollen on her sleeves can be evidence that she adjusted the mirror!" Koshimizu Nanatsuki said clearly.

Conan nodded in agreement.

Now that we know the modus operandi, the murderer, and the evidence, and confirmed that everyone thought the same, the incident can be considered solved.

This time the case was solved in Chi Feichi's speed mode. However, the clues to this incident seemed a little too obvious, allowing him to keep up with Chi Feichi's speed. Thinking of this, he was still in a good mood.

Next, what they have to do is...

"Is it now up to Nanatsuki-san to complete the reasoning?" Conan looked up at Koshizu Nanatsuki and asked.

Yuesui Nanatsuki looked at Chi Feichi hesitantly, "This..."

Chi Feichi could see that Nanatsuki Koshizui was a little moved. Thinking that this incident was simple and could be solved by Nanatsuki Koshizui, he nodded in support, "Conan and I don't need to solve the case to gain fame. It's up to you to do it." good."

Although the "Fruit Talent Show" program that Yuesui will be going to next weekend will also have incidents, it will also increase Yuesui's reputation. In addition, the attention paid to the time of Shirakawa Misuzu's death may make Yuesui Shui's reputation has risen too fast in a short period of time, exceeding his psychological expectations. However, the method of this incident is not complicated. Yue Shui has the ability to find out the truth and seems to want to reason. He really doesn't want to stop Yue Shui.

Even if Yueshui solves two high-profile cases in a row and his reputation increases too much, it won't necessarily leave Yueshui with endless commissions... right?

"Where's Mr. Mori?" Koshizui Nanatsuki looked at Kogoro Mori, still hesitant, and reminded in a low voice, "If so many reporters don't pay attention to this incident, it doesn't matter who solves the case, but this incident There is a lot of media attention. If Mr. Mori and I were both present and I solved the case in the end, there might be rumors going against Mr. Mori, such as that he lost a competition with his juniors. ...I believe that Mr. Chi, you can tell most newspapers not to report randomly, but there must be people you can't control, those who just want attention, regardless of whether they hurt others or offend others. Random reporting is the most troublesome. Mr. Mori may be sad when he sees those remarks..."

Conan also thought about it seriously.

That's right. There are reporters and TV crews everywhere now, and among them there must be some crazy gossip newspapers who just want attention. If Uncle Kogoro doesn't show any performance in solving the case, someone will probably use the topic to say something about Uncle Kogoro. In name only and so on.

I won’t say whether Uncle Kogoro will be sad or not, but such remarks also damage the relationship between the two offices...

"Then you and the teacher will complete the reasoning together, so that no one will gossip." Chi Feichi said to Koshizu Nanatsuki, and glanced at Conan with lowered eyes.

Conan understood immediately, quietly ran to the door, opened the cover of the watch, and shot an anesthetic needle at Mouri Kogoro's neck.

"But Mr. Mori..." Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked at where Kogoro Mori was standing, and saw Kogoro Mori staggering to the door as if he was drunk, and then slid to the ground with his back against the wall, and was stunned for a moment. He said seriously, "It seems there is no problem."

"Mr. Mori?" The police officer leading the team had never seen the scene of 'Sleeping Kogoro' and was startled by Kogoro Mori's weird behavior. "You, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing," Conan stood in the corridor outside the door, leaning against the wall, using a bow-tie voice changer to produce the voice of Kogoro Mouri. "I was just thinking that it's time to put an end to today's farce!"

Koshizui Nanatsuki and Chi Feichi stood in front of the glass cabinet. They turned their heads and whispered to Chi Feichi, "It's different when there are people behind you. Mr. Maori is very impressive now..."

Chi Feichi: "..."

Is Yueshui talking about some bad joke?

"Because the confidence conveyed by Mr. Mori is so strong, it seems that all you need to do is listen to his reasoning," Koshimizu Nanatsuki said thoughtfully, "I think it doesn't matter if I don't participate in the reasoning."

Chi Feichi: "..."

It has been agreed that his teacher Maori and Yueshui will share the fame brought about by this incident. Conan is already in place. He will definitely not forget Yueshui later. It is probably impossible for Yueshui to listen in next time. ?

Seeing Maori Kogoro's serious expression, Mao Lilan's eyes lit up and she took the initiative to ask, "Dad, do you already know what happened in today's fire?"

"Is this the sleeping Mouri Kogoro?" Shirakawa Saori also asked in surprise.

"Yes, I already know the truth about this incident," the sleeping Mouri Kogoro lowered his head and said in a serious tone, "Actually, the fire that occurred in this room was someone who wanted to kill someone. Not only me, but also Nanatsuki and Fei Chi saw the trap designed by Miss Shirakawa Misuzu. Nanatsuki, I’ll leave the mirror on the glass cabinet to you, and then you will recreate the technique on the spot. Just give it a try!”

"Ah, I see."

After Yuesui Nanatsuki came to his senses, he responded, turned to Chi Feichi, asked for gloves, put them on, put the three table mirrors back on the glass cabinet, and adjusted the placement of the table mirrors according to the notches on the table mirrors. position and mirror angle.

Conan continued to use the identity of Moori Kogoro and asked the police to find a flashlight. He also borrowed a subordinate from the leading policeman to help with the experiment. He asked the policeman to stand in front of the glass window with the flashlight, raise the flashlight high, and imitate the afternoon. Around two o'clock, the glass curtain wall of the building opposite reflected sunlight into the room.

The light simulated by the flashlight shines into the room from the window, is reflected by the dressing mirror on the opposite wall to the top of the glass cabinet, falls on the three table mirrors, and then is reflected by the mirrors of the three table mirrors onto the oil painting. Finally, the sunlight reflected by the three table mirrors It converged into a big light spot on the oil painting, which is where the oil painting caught fire.

'Sleeping Mouri Kogoro' and Koshizui Nanatsuki demonstrated the technique while explaining their reasoning one by one. They quickly explained the not-so-complicated technique in detail, and then pointed out that the murderer was everyone. After leaving the room, Chiharu Shirakawa stayed in the room to adjust the mirror when she had the opportunity.

In addition, after Shirakawa Misuzu went to her room to sleep in the afternoon, Shirakawa Chiharu left the teahouse and deliberately ran out when Nakanishi Yuka was driving out, allowing Nakanishi Yuka to drive into the pond. This was also a part of Shirakawa Chiharu's murder plan. The purpose was to let Shirakawa Misuzu, who was in the room at the time, open the curtains so that the sunlight reflected by the glass curtain wall of the opposite building could shine into the room and ignite the oil paintings...

During the reasoning, Conan used the identity of Mouri Kogoro to confirm with other people in the Shirakawa family - only this room had lilies.

In this way, the lily pollen on Shirakawa Chiharu's sleeves became evidence that she had adjusted the table mirror.

After Koshimizu Nanatsuki pointed out the pollen on Shirakawa Chiharu's sleeves, Shirakawa Chiharu could no longer deny or quibble, lowered her head and fell into silence.

When Kyousuke Shirakawa saw Chiharu Shirakawa's reaction, he already guessed the answer, "Chiharu..."

"Sister Chiharu..." Shirakawa Saori called out with a trembling voice, and asked with some collapse, "Why?! Why did you kill your mother?!"

"Miss Chiharu..." Chiharu Shirakawa murmured. When Kyousuke Shirakawa and Saori Shirakawa looked puzzled, she raised her eyes and looked at the two of them. Her voice was still as gentle and soft as before, but her eyes were dull and mocking, "That No matter how long it takes, a woman will still only call me 'Miss Chiharu', but when she calls you, she will call me 'Kyosuke' or 'Saori'. She will never call me that."

Shirakawa Saori asked in disbelief, "Is it because of this?"

"Actually, when I heard that my father was going to remarry her, I was really happy. After all, she is a big star that I admire very much." Shirakawa Chiharu smiled and turned to look at other people in the room with a smile on her face. Dissipated, "I know that I am the spoiler brought by my father, so I work hard in all aspects and want to please her. I never behave willfully and help with housework is always completed quickly, but that woman just They will reply to me, 'Miss Chiharu, you did a good job', 'Miss Chiharu, thank you', 'Miss Chiharu, no way', Miss Chiharu, Miss Chiharu, Miss Chiharu..."

Hearing Shirakawa Chiharu whisper the name Shirakawa Misuzu called her like a man possessed, everyone else in the room remained silent with complicated emotions and listened quietly.

Chiharu Shirakawa said, hatred suddenly welling up in her eyes, "Just last week, I passed by her room and heard her talking on the phone to someone else. She said on the phone that I was just a bottle of oil brought by her husband. , the only children with the blood of Misuzu Shirakawa are Kyousuke and Saori, and the property is also not even a dime for me, a loser... I obviously want to get her approval so hard, But after all these years, she still thinks her only children are Kyosuke and Saori!"
