Conan: Silence in the Dark
Chapter 23
"Mr. Shigeishi, can you come over for a moment?" asked Xiao Jing to Chongshi, who was packing up his things.
"Is there something going on?".
"Yes, there are some things I would like to discuss with you about the merits of the case. "
"Did you find anything? I'm going to call the police to come along?"
"No, isn't it a big deal, can I invite you over?" Xiao Jing asked again.
"Okay, I'll go over it. Shigeishi had doubts, but agreed.
"Excuse me. He said that Chongshi came to the guest room prepared for Xiaolan and sat down.
"Please use tea. Xiaolan said politely.
"Thank you, is Miss Maolilan looking for me for something??, isn't the garden there?" Shigeishi asked a question about himself before realizing that the garden was not here.
"Sister Yuanzi is not here, because it's better not to let Sister Yuanzi know about this matter first. As an answer, it is not Xiaolan who should be the eldest, but Xiaojing.
"What is it?" Shigeishi said again.
"Ahem. Xiao Jing coughed lightly and gave Conan a look, and Conan moved to the side closest to the heavy stone.
"Let me introduce myself first, my name is Mao Lijing, and this is my sister Mao Lilan. Those two don't matter, you know the names anyway. "
"Huh?" Shigeishi was a little confused about Xiao Jing's solemn self-introduction.
"Maybe you've heard my father's name too. Xiao Jing gave a hint.
"May I ask who my father is?"
"My father's name is Mori Kogoro, and he is a well-known detective. "
"That sleeping Maori Kogoro?".
"Yes. "
"I've heard of your father, a very famous man. "
"It's a prize. Xiao Jing put her hands on her knees and made a very standard thank you gift.
"Where, where. "
"So, you've heard that my father is much easier to do. We didn't have a clue about the case because we didn't have my father's sagacity, so I called my father for help. Xiao Jing said.
"Is it? So Mori Kogoro already knows the murderer?" Shigeishi's tone was still the same as before.
"Yes, with all due respect, my father meant to ask you to turn yourself in. Xiao Jing said directly.
"Is that so, does Mr. Maori suspect that I am a murderer?".
"Yes, allow me to paraphrase my father's reasoning. Xiao Jing sat up straight, and looked at Chongshi.
"I had a rare opportunity to get a glimpse of the detective's reasoning. "Chongshi is also a fearless reply.
"First of all, it was the head of the beginning who was shot. Also today I.cough.. My father really saw through the truth. "
"I want to hear about it. "
"The murderer seems to have used a timer to commit the crime, and when we saw the timer, we also used it as a tool to commit crimes, even Miss Yukina was deceived by you. "
"And what does a timer do?".
"It's a tool to make us think that anyone can commit crimes. Although it is said that in Noh, especially in the hands of experts like you, a performance can even be accurate to the second, but this is only a theory, and the slightest mistake can hurt yourself. Also, Conan confirmed that the stage was a little more slippery than usual because it had rained a few days ago and the floor had been re-waxed. "
"When you say this, you mean that the timer is not a tool for committing crimes, so what makes the arrow shot?".
"The people who shot the arrows weren't machines, they were people. "
"If your father said that, then you know that, right? How could I do such a thing on stage?"
"More on that later. And the first thing we suspect after the death of the head of the family is Mr. Toshiyuki Amagagawa, which is as you might expect. And because of Yukina's actions, we also began to doubt Yukina, and at first I also suspected that Yukina and Toshiyuki were accomplices. After all, on the surface, it seems that the relationship between the three brothers and sisters is not very good, but after all, they are brother and sister. "
"But I later realized that I was wrong, Miss Yukina was indeed killed because she wanted to be killed, but she was indeed killed by a real accomplice, a real accomplice of Miss Yukina's obedience to him. "
"And you are the one who planned this murder drama, and you pretended not to know and told Sister Yuanzi about the crime notice. And you, who are very familiar with the courtyard, naturally see our hiding place, and then just go around to the back of the stage and reappear, Miss Yukina must have been killed by you before we came. "
"But wasn't Mr. Shigeishi also attacked at that time?" Xiaolan asked at this time.
"But we didn't see him attacked directly, did we? Conan also heard Shigeishi's shout, and he had already lost it. Xiao Jing replied.
"But you also saw the figure of the murderer streaked across the night sky. "
"The modus operandi is actually very simple, we all thought that the murderer escaped with a small glider, but this is not the case. The killer we see is nothing more than a doll gliding along the piano line, and the doll can be recovered after the fact. "
"If you say that, how do you explain the matter of Toshiyuki? Your father guessed that it was a doll, but haven't I been with you ever since? Miss Sonoko has been taking care of me. How can I go and kill Toshiyuki?".
"Yes, we were there then. No matter how much you do, Mr. Shigeishi won't be able to do the doppelganger technique. Xiaolan also said.
"No, it can be done, it's the same way to kill the master. "
"Yes, then please go on. Shigeishi sat up and looked at Miss again.
"Okay, then please come in with Mr. Maho outside the door. "
"Mr. Butler?" Xiaolan looked out the door.
"I'm sorry to bother you so much. Saying that, the housekeeper also sat down next to Chongshi in Xiaojing's expectations.
"You were the one who shot the boss and pushed Toshiyuki off the cliff to his death, right? Xiao Jing said directly after the housekeeper sat down.
"Me?".
"Sister Yuan may have noticed this before me, as a housekeeper, Mr. Zhen Fansheng said too much. As a housekeeper, you won't leak the inside information of the head of the family to outsiders at will, and it is your disclosure that makes us feel that Toshiyuki Amagawa is the most suspicious person. "
"If my guess is correct, you've already planned the accidental death of Keiyuki Amagawa right?"
"This is ultimately just your guess, do you have any evidence?" asked Mr. Shigeishi, the butler, who was already a little flustered, calmly.
"Unfortunately, no. Xiao Jing said.
"Then it can only be said that this is speculation and not reasoning. "
"That's why I asked Mr. Shigeishi to come over. Can Mr. Butler spread out his palms?" Xiao Jing looked at the butler.
"Yes, yes. The butler stretched out his hands without resistance.
"Even if the butler may be wearing gloves, things like piano strings can still be strangled or even cut, but your hands were still intact yesterday. Xiao Jing pointed to the butler's hand, and vaguely saw the strangulation marks.
Nor can that be proof. "
"That's exactly what you said. Xiao Jing said and shook her head.
"Killing Toshiyuki in a short period of time requires recovering the doll and piano string, and not exposing himself to the police. Mr. Butler is very tired after doing these things, I think the doll or the piano string or even the traces of killing Yukina or Toshiyuki have not been completely erased, right? "
"Hey, is that why your father persuaded me to turn myself in?".
This is also my father's respect for your character. "
"Thank you so much. Chongshi bowed solemnly like Xiao Jing at the beginning.
"I killed people. Shigeishi stood up and said.
"Zhen Fansheng and I can't stand it for a long time, we can't stand this system and their behavior. "
"I've been serving for twenty years, but the head of the family, Minzhi and even Qizhi don't treat me as a human being. The butler followed suit.
"Whether it is strength, fame, or even the popularity of the disciples in the sect, I am much higher, but because I have no blood relationship, I have to be below those people. Shigeishi walked to the door and opened it.
"But isn't it because of this that you intend to set up your own door!" asked the garden outside the door, with a weeping voice.
"This world is not so naïve. If I really stand on my own, the head of the portal will not sit idly by, no matter what I do, he will crush me. Your father knows also, our purpose. After Chongshi finished speaking, he looked back at Xiao Jing.
"Is it so important to you to usurp the position of the head of the Seven Courtyards?" Xiao Jing also asked.
"The Seven Courtyards have slowly declined, and they have long lost their former glory. And it's something that's important to me. "
"Ah, it was planned. It's really bad luck to take advantage of you as a woman and pull out the Maori detective. Chongshi said with a pretended sigh.
"Smack!".
"I misjudged you!" said aloud after the garden.
"Really, this is also a star's face. Shigeishi said as he picked up the glasses that had been knocked away by the garden and put them back on.
"Compare that, Mr. Maho Sheng, let's go. So saying, he brushed the garden and left.
"I'm so sorry guys. After Zhen Fansheng finished speaking, he also left.
"Damn, I was deceived so easily!" said Yuan Zi gritted his teeth afterwards and walked in front.
"Alright, alright, there's a big forest waiting for you!"
"Xiao Jing is right, how could my garden give up the whole forest for a yellow leaf! Ah, I forgot to take your mobile phone charger to wait here for you. He went to get it without looking back.
"Why did Mr. Shigeishi still say that kind of thing back then?" Xiaolan asked suddenly.
"A bad guy has to look like a bad guy. Xiao Jing replied.
"Huh?" Xiao Ai looked a little questioning at the explanation.
"This is called the last gentleness of a man, remember not to tell the garden, but maybe she already knows. Xiao Jing explained in a low voice.
"Anyway, it will be fine in a few days. Conan didn't care, as if he was used to it.
"Actually, the whole thing is that Mr. Shigeishi is too stupid. Xiao Jing concluded.
"Maybe it's just a moment of incomprehension that led to this result. Conan also said regretfully.
"No, no, no, you're going to be wrong, I mean Mr. Shigeishi was thinking too simply. "
"What do you mean?" asked Xiao Ai as well.
"Mr. Shigeishi should have stopped the plan when he had already dealt with Sister Sonoko, and then with Sister Sonoko's relationship, he would definitely be able to stand on his own, and be crushed with the strength of the Suzuki Foundation? "
"Your garden sister will kill you if she hears it. Xiao Ai patted Xiao Jing's head with her hand to teach her a lesson.
"No, no, no, you underestimate my status in Sister Yuanzi's mind, as long as I say it's Conan, she will definitely believe me. "
"Hey, hey, are you really okay to say it in front of me?" Conan said speechlessly.
"That doesn't seem like a bad idea. Xiao Jing lowered her head and said.
"What are you thinking again?" asked Xiao Ai.
"I mean, it's good to find someone rich and powerful, and then be a little white face. Xiao Jing explained.
"You kid really need to be educated!" said Xiao Ai.
