Conan's other self

"No, it should be a few minutes after four o'clock," Fengyuan stood next to Xiaolan and looked at Hattori Heiji, "Because..."

"...I heard it then, and heard the uncle's painful cry."

The scene was quiet for a moment.

"Xiaokong!" Mao Lilan quickly pulled Fengyuan away, "Don't talk nonsense, you can't disturb the adults in handling the case."

"Smelly brat!" Uncle Maoli said dissatisfiedly and couldn't help but clenched his fists. Isn't this child usually quite well-behaved? Wait a minute - isn't this Conan's brat pretending?

Uncle Maori looked at Fengyuan suspiciously.

The same is true for Xiaolan.

The biggest difference in appearance between Conan and Maplehara is naturally that one wears glasses and the other does not. But all you have to do is take it off...

However, the two of them wore different clothes today, and the child didn't seem to have a cold...

It should be Xiao Kong, right?

Maori and his daughter were hesitant, and the Mu Mu Police Department said to Maoli dissatisfied, "Hey! Maori! Take care of the children-"

"But, I really heard it," Maplehara looked at Hattori Heiji seriously, "just when we first walked into this room..."

"To be precise, it was when the aunt pushed the uncle." Fengyuan continued. Since he wasn't sure what to call someone of this age, he pointed at Mrs. Tsujimura beside him.

Mrs. Tsujimura's expression changed.

Hattori Heiji's expression also changed.

"Maoli!" Memu Police Department shouted again dissatisfied.

"Xiao Kong, stop making trouble——"

Xiaolan tries again to bring Fengyuan back.

But Hattori Heiji suddenly spoke.

"Wait a minute!" Hattori Heiji walked up to Feng Yuan, squatted down with a serious expression, "Hey, kid, are you sure you heard me?"

"Of course, my hearing is better than that of ordinary people! That's why I heard it! What was hidden under the sound of the opera," Kaedehara lowered his eyes and ended his gaze with Hattori Heiji, "...that uncle's screams ."

Opera sound?

The break here made Hattori Heiji couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Hattori Heiji knew that some people's ears were just easier to use than ordinary people. So although he didn't hear it, he couldn't conclude that the child was lying. And if what he said is true...

Wait, opera?

Ignoring Uncle Mouri and the Megure Police Department calling him, Hattori Heiji rushed directly to the bookshelf on the side, which contained a large number of classical music CDs.

Discussions began in the study room.

Xiaolan also looked confused.

"Ahem." Police Department Mumu came over a little embarrassed. He had just indirectly attacked the child. However, with Hattori Heiji's performance in front of him, it seems that he cannot simply think that this child is causing trouble.

"Xiao Kong," he said, shamelessly using Xiaolan's address, and Police Department Mumu tried to look kinder, "did you really hear me?"

Feng Yuan nodded and his eyes fell on Megure Police Department's pocket, as if he was curious about what was stuffed inside.

Only then did the Megu Police Department remember that the key was still in his pocket. This could be regarded as evidence, so he quickly reached out and tried to take out the key——

Snap.

The key fell on the floor.

Policeman Mu Mu struggled to bend down to reach the key.

Then he was startled by Hattori Heiji who ran back out of nowhere.

"F-Brother Hattori!"

"No, this isn't right!" Hattori Heiji bent down and stared at the keys on the ground, "It shouldn't be like this! Wait, what if..."

"Hattori?" Xiaolan shouted worriedly.

Hattori Heiji ignored him, turned around and ran out of the study.

"..."

The sound in the study became even noisier.

Originally, they were fascinated by the reasoning, but they were interrupted by a child with incomprehensible words. Forget it, the host ran away as if he had lost his mind.

The Megure Police Department quickly put aside the matter of collecting evidence from Maplehara, and instead comforted the Tsujimura family, and kept a closer eye on Mrs. Tsujimura.

Uncle Maoli looked confused, not knowing what happened.

Xiaolan was in a daze. It looked like Hattori had just run out, and she couldn't help but hallucinate Shinichi.

Is it because it’s been so long since I’ve seen Shinichi?

"Sister Xiaolan," Fengyuan's voice brought Xiaolan's soul back, "your phone is ringing."

"Eh? Oh..." Mao Lilan responded after coming back to her senses, took out her mobile phone from her pocket and took a look.

Then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Hattori Heiji told her before that Shinichi might come over, so she followed him, but she didn't expect that Shinichi actually called. Could it be...

"Shinichi!"

"It's me, Xiaolan."

Kudo Shinichi's voice sounded hoarse and he was panting heavily, but Xiaolan, who knew Shinichi had a cold, didn't think much about it.

"Why are you calling now?" Mao Lilan said as she walked towards the door. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she looked very happy, but her words were filled with impatience, "Could it be that I heard from Conan that a case happened again——"

"Listen to me first, Xiaolan," Xiaolan stopped subconsciously, "Fengyuan—is that kid Doyle, with you now?"

"Huh?" Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, then looked back at Fengyuan, and found that Fengyuan was also looking here, "Yes! What's wrong?"

"call…"

There was an exhale from the other side of the phone, like a sigh of relief.

"Shinichi? What's wrong?"

"It's okay, Xiaolan. By the way, I happen to be near you now. Do you want to come out and meet me?"

"Really? Don't lie to me! Where are you?"

Mao Lilan said as he trotted towards the door.

Feng Yuan watched Xiao Lan run away.

It seems that Conan has changed back to Kudo Shinichi.

temporary.

But nothing has changed.

This is what he expected.

This means that even though he traveled through time and became Kudo Shinichi, even though the original Kudo Shinichi is still there, it did not lead to an unscientific connection between him and Kudo Shinichi.

He remains an independent entity.

However, this was originally in line with his guess, so he was only slightly reassured.

He soon put this down.

Hattori Heiji came back soon, holding a lot of coiled fishing line.

There was some confusion and annoyance on his face, but these disappeared the moment he walked into the study.

Only confidence remains.

"Everyone!" Hattori Heiji said loudly, and the room became quiet. "There was an error in my reasoning just now, but it has been solved! Now, let me continue to explain the case!"

Hattori Heiji continued to reason.

Just like Maplehara said before, the murderer is Mrs. Tsujimura. She led everyone into the study, pretended to wake up Isao Tsujimura, and took the opportunity to stab him to death with a poisonous needle.

The sound was used to suppress the possible screams of the deceased, and the pile of books on the table was also used to prevent others from seeing the painful expression of the deceased at that moment.

The so-called secret room is just a trick used to mislead reasoning and frame others.

Behind the case is a story of revenge.

The deceased framed Mrs. Tsujimura's ex-husband twenty years ago, causing her unjust death in prison, and married Mrs. Tsujimura who was unaware of this.

Tsujimura's son's girlfriend Sachiko Katsuragi happened to be the daughter of Mrs. Tsujimura and her ex-husband. This aroused strong opposition from Isao Tsujimura, and only then did Mrs. Tsujimura realize the truth and decided to avenge her ex-husband.

Feng Yuan originally didn't want to care.

So he didn't stop Mrs. Tsujimura.

He has no interest in rescuing a character like diplomat Isao Tsujimura - let alone doing such a thing without being able to explain how he knew the full story.

Fengyuan didn't even bother to participate in solving the case.

But he agreed to Conan after all.

Not long after the reasoning ended, Xiaolan came back with Conan who had fallen asleep, looking a little disappointed.

Although Conan fell asleep, his breathing was still steady, so Maori and his party prepared to go home.

Hattori Heiji took advantage of everyone getting on the bus and deliberately pulled Maplehara behind, saying that he had to wait for the next taxi.

"Hey! Are you Kudo?"
