Conan: Money Talks

The night was very long.

Xiaolan, who was lying in the middle, tossed and turned but couldn't fall asleep.

The scene of Mist Tengu running around in the corridor outside kept appearing in her mind, and the sound of the waterfall outside the corridor now sounded like the sound of Mist Tengu passing over the roof.

Xiaolan buried her head in the quilt, but as soon as she closed her eyes, Mist Tengu seemed to be right in front of her.

She was so scared that she had to keep her eyes open.

"Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

Just when Xiaolan was bored, Gong Benhan's voice suddenly came from her ear.

"Are you afraid of that Mist Tengu again? I've already told you that there's no such thing as that."

Miyamoto Han touched Xiaolan's head lovingly.

"But I'm still very scared!"

Xiaolan said weakly.

"Well, then come over to my side."

Miyamoto Han opened his arms to her,"I really can't do anything with you, you're just like a little child."

Xiaolan blushed and hummed, then moved to Miyamoto Han's bed like a kitten.

Miyamoto Han's strong arms hugged her tightly, and the two of them hugged face to face. Xiaolan felt much more at ease at this moment, and her head rested gently in Miyamoto Han's arms.

Miyamoto Han fell asleep again quickly, but Xiaolan was still not sleepy at all, and her hand gently stroked Miyamoto Han's eyebrows.

In the middle of the night, Miyamoto Han, who was in a deep sleep, heard Xiaolan's voice next to him again

"Han~"

Miyamoto Han opened his sleepy eyes

"What's wrong? Xiaolan"

"I want to go to the toilet~"

Xiaolan's voice was soft.

"Let's go, it's the third room on the right after exiting the toilet"

"I don't dare to go!" Xiaolan shook Gong Benhan's arm.

"Oh, I really can't do anything with you!"

Miyamoto Han rubbed his eyelids that felt like they were filled with lead. No matter how strong his sleepiness was, it was nothing in front of his girlfriend!

As a result, he sent her to the door of the toilet, and Xiaolan didn't dare to go in alone.

"Come with me!"

Xiaolan said so, and Gong Benhan had no choice but to agree and accompany her in.

"Turn your head away!"

"It's not like I haven't seen it before!" Miyamoto Han honestly turned his head towards the direction of the mirror.

After coming out, it was Miyamoto Han who couldn't sleep! After going to the toilet, Xiaolan found a Mist Tengu mask from somewhere, put it on her head, and prepared to go back to scare Conan and her father.

Miyamoto Han really couldn't understand who would be scared by such a boring thing.

As a result,

Maori Kogoro and Conan were really scared. The two were woken up in the middle of the night, and a Xiaolan wearing a Mist Tengu mask appeared in front of them.

The two screamed.

In an instant, the temple was brightly lit!

Kuan Nian ran over first.

He opened the sliding door of Miyamoto Han and others' room, and asked loudly:"What happened?"

Kogoro had to apologize to everyone who ran over.

It seemed that no one slept well all night!

It was Xiunian who came to wake them up for breakfast the next day.

Xiunian only said two sentences and yawned, seeming very sleepy.

"You look very sleepy, Master Xiu Nian. Maori Kogoro asked

"That's because I was reciting scriptures until very late last night."

After saying that, he closed the sliding door and left.

During the vegetarian meal, Mu Nian kept yawning, and Kogoro still asked.

Mu Nian pointed at his forehead and cursed:"It's all because of your screaming last night. I have been worried, so I couldn't sleep well at all!" Tun Nian on the opposite side also did not sleep all night because of the influence of Maori Kogoro last night.

"By the way, where are Master Kuan Nian and the host?"

Xiaolan looked around but didn't see them, so she asked.

Tun Nian replied weakly,"That's because the host wasn't there early in the morning, so Brother Kuan Nian went to look for him. Maybe he's secretly drinking in a room again."

Xiaolan lowered her head in boredom and ate the vegetarian meal on the table.

Before she had taken a few bites, there was a scream from outside!

Everyone stood up.

"This is Kuan Nian's voice!" Tun Nian said.

The voice seemed to come from the training room, so they quickly dropped their bowls and chopsticks and ran to the training room.

At the door of the training room, Kuan Nian slumped on the ground.

His eyes were wide open, and his mouth was open enough to fit an egg. His hand was trembling as he pointed to the ceiling.

Miyamoto Han and others looked in the direction of the finger.

Above the ceiling, the abbot was hanging on the beam with his eyes wide open and his mouth cracked.

Soon, the police arrived at the scene. What they didn't expect was that Shanni Temple was also under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Police Department, so the police who came was still the Inspector Megure, who they were very familiar with.

Tenneng presided over The police quickly took the body down from the beam.

The deceased who hanged himself was the temple's abbot, Tenyong. The approximate time of death was between 10pm and 12pm. The person who discovered the body was Master Kuannien, a practicing monk in the temple.

This was the result of the preliminary investigation by the police forensic personnel.

When Inspector Megure saw Maori Kogoro and Miyamoto Kan, his eyes widened. There were always these two people at the scene of death, and of course there was Conan.

Conan was good at grasping the key points. He smiled and asked Kuannien,"Master Kuannien, your intuition is really accurate. Because the abbot, he was hanging from such a high ceiling. If it were me, I would not have discovered it so quickly!"

After hearing what Conan said, Inspector Megure and Maori Kogoro were alert all of a sudden, and looked at him sternly at the same time.

"Yes! Master Kuan Nian, this is indeed very strange, can you explain it? Or maybe you knew from the beginning that the host would be hanging from the ceiling, right?"

Kuan Nian was sweating and took a step back,"How could it be me! Just before, before……"

"Of course, because the same incident happened in this practice room before!" Before Kuannian could explain, Mu Nian spoke up.

Inspector Megure also remembered it at this time, and immediately clenched his right fist and hit the palm of his left hand, saying:"I remember that such a case happened before, and I was in charge at that time. I remember that the monk who died was called Zhongnian, and the ones who found the dead were Master Mu Nian and Master Kuannian, right?"

The two nodded at the same time.
