Conan's Silence in the Dark

The next afternoon, after the end of the incident, he came to the detective office to discuss John's incident with Kogoro, after all, Kogoro was also a direct discoverer, and the two were also old acquaintances.

"We're back*2" Shizune and Conan also returned from school soon after, and Conan saw Memu and Kogoro on the sofa and knew that the case must have come to an end, and the schoolbag was not put away, so he ran to listen to their conversation.

Xiao Jing put her bag away, sorted out the books on her small desk, and returned downstairs.

"Father, hasn't my sister come back yet?" Xiao Jing looked at the other rooms.

"Your sister and Yuanzi went to play and will come back later. Excuse me, did Sakaguchi say that? Didn't say anything else? Kogoro replied to Kozuki and said again to Mumu.

"Yes, that's not wrong at all, the presence of his assistant at the time can prove that he didn't lie." Mu Mu looked at his notebook and said.

"Please use." Xiao Jing carried two cups of tea on a tray and placed them in front of Kogoro and Mumu.

"Thank you." Mumu politely nodded to Xiao Jing in thanks.

"I remember my sister said last night that a junior high school student in the Sakaguchi family committed suicide, is it Sakaguchi's relative?" Xiao Jing asked with her hands behind her back.

"Well, it's Sakaguchi's son. I heard my colleagues say that thing, as if I couldn't think about it for a while because I was bullied by my classmates. Mumu replied.

"Could it be that the person who bullied his son at that time was Xiao Gang?" Kogoro asked at this time.

"Yes, it really is. I also heard from Sakaguchi that his son's diary wrote about being bullied by Xiaogang, and that he committed suicide because of this. Sakaguchi must have hated Kotsuya after reading his son's diary, and Sakaguchi's wife died early, and his son can be said to be his only relative. However, when he heard Sakaguchi say that when he was guarding the spirit, he forgave Xiao Gang when he saw Xiao Gang, who was constantly crying and making amends. The eye confirmed Kogoro's conjecture.

"Was Xiao Gang the only one who bullied his son at that time?" Kogoro then asked.

"It seems that yes, not long after that happened, Xiao Gang transferred to Kansai because of his father's work. Then two years later, Kotsuya returned to Tokyo after being admitted to a university, and moved next door to Mr. Sakaguchi this spring. "

"It's really fate." Kogoro sighed as he listened to Mumu's words.

Mr. Sakaguchi didn't expect to see Xiao Gang again, and he seemed to be shocked. However, I heard from neighbors that Sakaguchi seems to have forgotten the past, and often invites Xiao Gang to his house for dinner. "

"But actually, I think Mr. Sakaguchi still hates Kogaku."

"Is that so?" Memu asked Kogoro.

"I think Mr. Sakaguchi secretly trained John to attack people with a specific code word. Last night, Mr. Sakaguchi used a code word to tell John, and then John carried out the attack, and Mr. Sakaguchi's revenge plan finally came true. Kogoro reasoned.

"It shouldn't be like that." Mumu rejected Kogoro's reasoning in a very positive voice.

"Why so sure?"

"Have you forgotten, today when we took notes for Sakaguchi, we asked him to repeat what he said on the phone. And John, who was next to him at the time, listened to it and did not react at all. Memu told Kogoro the reason.

"Yes?" Kogoro asked dejectedly because his reasoning was rejected so quickly.

"I think this reasoning is quite wonderful, father." After listening to Kogoro's reasoning, Xiao Jing felt that this reasoning was still worth referring to.

"Well, the Maori brother doesn't have to be discouraged so quickly, maybe it's some other way." Mumu also said comfortingly.

"What are you thinking?" Xiao Jing turned to Conan, who was pensive on the side

"I also think that Sakaguchi may be using John to carry out a revenge plan."

"Also agree with my father's reasoning?"

"Well, I think it's a code code, and there are still doubts here." Conan nodded and replied.

"We can just go and see the scene." Xiao Jing understood what Conan meant by saying that there might be other things or sounds on the scene as reflection conditions.

"You're right!" Conan immediately agreed to Xiao Jing's proposal.

"Uncle, I'll go out and come back soon." Conan was indeed a serious activist, threw his bag at the entrance and ran out.

"Uh... This imp. Kogoro didn't react at all, and Conan had already run outside.

Xiao Jing watched Conan run out and was a little speechless, this washing machine really has a fully loaded case in his head? Are you really like those in your previous life who said IQ 150 EQ 015?

"Then I also take my leave, and I have an agreement with the insider to go back early." Mu Mu showed a rare shy expression, got up from the sofa and said.

"Then I won't keep you." Kogoro also got up to see him off.

"See you at the police department." Xiao Jing followed Kogoro and sent the curtain out the door.

About an hour later, Conan returned to the office.

"Conan, where have you been?" Xiaolan, who had returned before Conan, asked.

"I went to Mr. Sakaguchi." Conan changes into indoor shoes at the entrance.

"What are you doing there in Sakaguchi?" Kogoro asked as he pressed his finished cigarette into the ashtray.

"I was going to see John again, but unfortunately John was sent to the police station." Conan made the excuse he had come up with.

"Che, I thought you little devil went looking for clues." Kogoro seems to be a little used to Conan's behavior, at least Kogoro didn't guess wrong this time.

"Father, what clues you expect a schoolboy to find is problematic in itself." Xiao Jing looked at the cartoon playing on the TV and said.

"That's what I said, haha." Kogoro also felt that he was a little demanding, and smiled awkwardly.

Conan listened to the conversation between Xiaojing and Kogoro with a wry smile, and also sat on the sofa like Xiaojing and watched the anime playing on the TV in front of him; No, it's rare for you to have the same hobby as your peers! Is it easy for me to pretend to be a schoolboy? Knowing that I am Shinichi, you still come to ridicule me.............

"But today I went to find that the main unit of Sakaguchi's wireless phone is a wired microphone, but last night I only put the wireless subcomputer in the living room, why is that?" Conan naturally went to investigate clues, and in order to solve the case, Conan was too lazy to calculate with Xiao Jing.

"Hmm. That's why. Xiao Jing expressionlessly repeated Conan's hint of selling cute, which may be a curious question in the eyes of Xiaoran and Kogoro, but in Conan's eyes, it seemed to be saying; You continue to die, for fear that others will not know that you are the new couple, right?

"There must be a reason for this!" Kogoro seemed to have thought of something and got up.

"Because it was a wireless phone that could move, let Xiao Gang walk up the stairs. You see, it's impossible to get a wired microphone to the second floor, so Sakaguchi put the wireless sub-machine microphone in the living room! Kogoro explained, pointing to the phone on the table.

"So Dad, do you still think that Mr. Sakaguchi called John to attack Xiao Gang?" Xiaolan, who was cleaning up the trash, asked as she poured the contents of the ashtray into the prepared garbage bag.

"Yes, the phone call made me more convinced! But I still don't know what that important attack code word is, hateful! Kogoro clenched his hand unwillingly.

"By the way, our house bell won't ring." But Mr. Sakaguchi's bell rings every hour. Conan continued.

"Clock? That's right! It was exactly eight o'clock when John attacked Xiao Gang, I understand! My detective Maori Kogoro solved this puzzle easily! Hahaha! I'll give Mumu a call. At Conan's prompt, Kogoro felt that he had solved the mystery and began to get carried away again.

After receiving the call, Memu asked Officer Sato, who was still at work, to handle it on his behalf, and Sato saw that it was only dusk and was not yet shrouded in night, so he contacted Mr. Sakaguchi to verify Kogoro's reasoning.

Kogoro and Sato's group, as well as Sakaguchi, gathered in the backyard where John was placed.

"What are you trying to say? Officer Sato. Sakaguchi asked with some displeasure.

"We want to do an experiment, Mr. Sakaguchi." Sato gave Takagi a look, and Takagi ran to the cage where John was kept.

"Now please repeat what you said to John last night as I instructed." Sato saw that Takagi had already stood up and thought to Sakaguchi and said.

"This... All right. Sakaguchi replied hesitantly, but agreed. Xiao Jing could see from his expression that he already knew that the police were still suspicious of him.

Takagi saw Sakaguchi agree, took out the tape recorder from his pocket and played the pre-recorded clock hourly tone.

Everyone quietly watched John's reaction, only Xiao Jing glanced at it and turned to look at Sakaguchi.

"It's useless." Sakaguchi couldn't see the panic at all, just the nervousness of a normal person being suspicious.

“？？" Conan next to him showed a questioning expression to Xiao Jing after hearing Xiao Jing's whispered words.

"Mr. Sakaguchi, trouble you to start." Sato waited for the clock sound to finish and let Sakaguchi start.

"Okay." Sakaguchi whispered back.

"John, how are you? How are you? John. Sakaguchi repeated the words on the phone.

"Trouble you to be louder." Sato saw that John didn't react and asked Sakaguchi to amplify his voice a bit.

Sakaguchi repeated out loud again. But John remained unmoved, and only called John twice in response.

The experiment ended with Kogoro and Conan looking disbelieving.

"Strange, it shouldn't be wrong." Kogoro who returned to the office collapsed on the sofa and was still tangled.

"Sure enough, using a dog to avenge his deceased son is dad, you think too much." Xiaoran said to Kogoro.

"There's not much we can do now, but when we investigated, we found that Sakaguchi took John out every Sunday for three months. Mr. Sakaguchi is saying that Big John can let go of the suburban area. Takagi took out the case notepad and said. By the way, Ichikagi and Sato are now sitting opposite Kogoro, while Shizune sits on Sato's lap and is held by Sato.

"He must have used that time to train John!" Kogoro still refuses to give up.

"But we don't have proof." Sato blocked Kogoro's words back.

"One more thing to tell you, although unfortunately, John will be executed tomorrow night, I'm sorry." This is an order from above, there is no way. And Mr. Sakaguchi has agreed. Sato said as he touched Xiao Jing's head apologetically.

"Although I don't know much about the type of John dog, the lifespan of large dogs is generally about 9 to 12 years. John should have been about the age to die, so Sakaguchi would have agreed. Xiao Jing was unmoved by Sato's movements, still staring at the book in her hand.

"In other words, I have always felt that Xiao Jing is very knowledgeable since I saw Xiao Jing!" Sato said.

"Because Xiaojing likes to read all kinds of books since she was sensible, when other children are playing, she holds the books in her father's or mother's study and looks at them, and we were shocked before." Ran answered for Sato.

"Maybe Xiao Jing will be a big teacher in the future." The teacher here means to be very outstanding in a certain field.

"I will become a lawyer like my mother." Xiao Jing was not shy to say her goal.

"Like Teacher Yingli?"

"Hmm." Xiao Jing replied in the affirmative.

Sato and Takagi then exchanged pleasantries with Kogoro for a while and then left.
