Corpse collector in Conan

"Hold Mr. Xinghe and Sonoko's arms." When Mao Lilan answered, Conan realized that he had accidentally blurted out what was on his mind.

Immediately afterwards, he saw Mao Lilan walking towards Xinghe Tongwu and Suzuki Sonoko in order to explain: "Just like this..."

"I know!" Conan got in front of her, hugged Xinghe Tongwu's legs, and separated the two of them, "It's like this, right."

Mao Lilan was startled and said with a smile: "Absolutely."

"You're hugging him so tightly." Police Department Memu looked at Conan's strong little hands, "Then the murderer must not have been the one who went upstairs."

With this in mind, he turned to the others: "What were you doing during the power outage?"

——Although it cannot be ruled out that outsiders broke in and committed the crime, based on his experience, the possibility of insiders committing the crime is actually higher. In other words, all of these people are suspects...except Brother Jiang Xia.

After hearing what Megure Police Department said, Riki Iida guessed what the police officer was thinking. He pushed up his sunglasses and said, "This matter has nothing to do with me. When the power went out, I was resting in the room directly below the library."

Mrs. Masakage nodded: "At that time, I was going to the lounge to wake him up for dinner. Unexpectedly, the power went out as soon as I opened the door, but I still saw that Iida was in the house at that time."

"That's it." Police Department Megu touched his chin and realized something was wrong, "So you two don't have a chance to carry the body. He shouldn't be the murderer. Then the only thing left is..."

He turned his head and looked at Maya Hashimoto.

Conan didn't expect the Memu Police Department to be so upbeat, so he smiled secretly.

"..." Maya Hashimoto was immediately bathed in the police's gaze - he was all too familiar with this gaze, and the painful experiences before and after joining the job came flooding back.

Fortunately, after hard work, people will always make progress. Hashimoto Maya immediately found his alibi skillfully, "I was not alone at that time. I was chatting with Mr. Jiang Xia."

Maya Hashimoto thanked the kind detective in her heart, and then said jokingly: "Speaking of being alone - Conan took the flowers I gave him and played alone for a long time."

After a pause, thinking about the threat this kid might bring when he grows up, he turned around and said as if nothing had happened: "But during the power outage, this kid was with me and Jiang Xia, and he also had no time to move the body. ”

The Memu Police Department was amused by his words and leaned over to touch Conan's head: "He can't move even if he wants to, right Conan."

Conan: "..." You can't move it! Don't underestimate the power of elementary school students. I dragged Uncle Maori around after being knocked unconscious by an anesthesia needle... Well, no, that's not the point. The point is why did Maya Hashimoto suddenly say such a thing?

"To suspect me, a primary school student, as a serious suspect..." Conan was suddenly startled, "This guy must have guessed something."

Thinking of his identity that could not be revealed, Conan felt as if a ladle of cold water had been poured on him. He showed an innocent smile like a child: "Yes, Uncle Hashimoto's idea is really scary. How can I, a child, kill someone?"

Maya Hashimoto: "..." Huh.

…

After some investigation, the Mumu Police Department felt a little worried.

——Although there are many people in this family, when they gather together in twos and threes, they all happen to have alibi. Do we really have to look outside and look for needles in a haystack of outsiders who may have committed crimes?

"Speaking of which, the murderer who went to such trouble to steal a magic notebook must be a magician."

The Megure Police Department tried their best to narrow the scope of their work: "There should be many people who know Master Shokage. Not to mention the magician, even I used to watch him perform when I was a child - he and his beautiful assistant, in Tokyo at that time A beautiful scenery. However, I heard that he seems to have disappeared..."

Mrs. Zhengying sighed: "Yes, the time he disappeared was exactly 10 years ago today."

Jiang Xia: "Didn't you report the crime?"

Mrs. Zhengying shook her head and smiled bitterly: "He is the kind of person who leaves at any time and often disappears suddenly for ten days and a half, so I didn't pay attention at first. But who knew that this time, he would be gone for more than a year.

"Six months after he left, Iida, Xinghe and Zhanzi also moved away one after another. It was not until today, ten years later, that everyone reunited for the first time."

Mumu Police Department rubbed his chin and muttered: "I haven't been back for ten years, but something happened as soon as I came back today... Who is taking the lead in this gathering of yours?"

"It's me." Iida, who looked like a big brother, pushed up his sunglasses and explained, "Every year on this day, I come here - it just so happened that this year three of our classmates planned to come to a joint performance, so I took the opportunity to bring them I invited them all over and wanted to chat while having a meal, but who knew... alas."

Mrs. Zhengying heard the suspicion of the Memu Police Department and said quickly: "I usually live here alone, and I rarely go to the second floor - maybe the thief didn't come here specifically today, but has been here several times. Only today was discovered.”

"This...this makes some sense." Police Department Megure had to admit that this was correct. He sighed and could only think from another angle, "Does Mr. Masekage have any acquaintances with bad character? - —The person who can think of stealing the Magic Notes must have a certain understanding of Mr. Zhengying."

Xinghe Tongwu frowned and thought for a while: "No. Master is relatively solitary, and the friends he usually makes are..."

"Ah, I remembered!" Mrs. Zhengying suddenly interrupted their conversation and said in fear:

"There has been a similar person in the past few years - he came to visit and said he wanted to meet my husband, and he came back several times."

“My husband had disappeared for a long time at that time and had long lost his reputation. I thought the visitor was a fan of his, so I was moved by him and invited him to visit my husband’s library.

"But who would have expected that he would roar angrily as soon as he entered the door, shouting something like, 'Get out of here, you liar who steals people's ideas and can only do juggling!'..."

She turned to Iida Riki: "I told you about this, right."

Iida Riki was stunned for a moment: "Ah... yes, that's right."

Maya Hashimoto looked at these two weird-looking people and quietly retreated behind Jiang Xia.

The Mumu Police Department became interested: "What kind of person is he? Please describe his appearance in detail, and I will ask people to search nearby - the murderer has not been away for too long, and hunting for him while it is hot may be fruitful. "

"This..." Mrs. Zhengying was a little embarrassed, "Actually, this happened five years ago. I was very scared at the time and didn't dare to look further. Looking back now, I have actually forgotten his appearance - but since then Since then, I often feel that there are subtle changes in the furnishings in my home, as if some invisible person has been quietly rummaging through the room..."
