Detective Conan: Twelve Death Warlocks

Chapter 56: Conan's absence

"I'm leaving first, Sister Xiaolan." Conan said goodbye to them and got into Dr. A Li's yellow Volkswagen antique Beetle.

The weather outside is perfect now, so everyone from the Young Detective Team decided to go camping. Kogoro Mori pressed the cigarette butt in his mouth into the ashtray on the table and asked casually: "How is it? That little devil.

Gone?"

"The doctor took them camping, but in my impression, I basically never went camping in private before my second year in junior high school!"

"Of course it is. The detective boy reads detective novels at home all day long, and the eldest lady of the Suzuki Consortium has a luxurious villa in various cities. Where is the chance of camping?"

Mao Lilan seemed to think that there was nothing wrong with this, and couldn't help feeling a little helpless.

When someone rang the doorbell, Mao Lilan reached out to open the door. A woman in her early thirties came in. Mao Lilan was a little surprised. The other person asked: "Is Mr. Mao Li here?"

"Dad, we have a visitor coming!"

"Huh?" Mouri Kogoro lowered the newspaper in front of him and saw the person coming. The person was very polite and bowed to Moori Kogoro: "Hello, Mr. Mouri, my name is Hirota Minami, whom I contacted before.

"

"Oh? You are Miss Hirota, please sit down."

Mao Lilan went upstairs to make tea, and Mao Li Kogoro walked around the desk and asked her to sit on the sofa: "Ms. Hirota, please sit down. You didn't explain the matter on the phone before. In fact, I

I've been waiting for you for a long time." Sitting on the sofa, Mouri Kogoro looked at her with a expression on his face.

Hirota Minami took out a report form from his bag and looked at Mouri Kogoro opposite: "Mr. Mouri, this is the police investigation report. In fact, a friend of mine was killed in my house, and after the police

After an investigation, they believed that my husband killed him. So the night before yesterday, my husband was arrested by the police."

Mouri Kogoro touched his chin lightly, then looked at Hirota Minami, and asked with some uncertainty: "Ms. Hirota, I don't think you have any ambiguity with your friend.

relationship!"

Guang Tiannan felt a little embarrassed, and then nodded lightly: "That's right."

"Oh? Then this must be a love killing? This kind of thing is quite common." While talking, Maori Kogoro read all the investigation reports. Mao Lilan walked in with tea and put it down in front of the two of them.

Then he said goodbye and left immediately.

"What's the situation at the scene? I think he hasn't been destroyed yet."

"Well... in fact, after my husband was taken away by the police, my father-in-law thought that this was an ominous sign at home, so he cleared everything out of the scene."

"That is to say, there are no clues at the scene of the crime?" Mouri Kogoro touched his chin and suddenly fell into deep thought. Judging from the current situation, everything points to Mr. Hirota, who is most likely to have committed the crime.

And he also had sufficient motive to kill.

"Then why did the victim go to your house? Also, where were you when the crime occurred?"

"I went out at the time, and we wanted to negotiate about this. To be honest, I was guilty of passion, so I wanted to invite him to our house to talk things over. Moreover, the victim and my husband were friends, so

My husband feels that after all, it is a relatively private matter and should not be discussed outside."

"That's right! Then I know. You wanted to take the blame for your husband, right? In other words, it was possible that the real murderer was you!"

"Mr. Mori, what nonsense are you talking about? I had a clear alibi at the street store at that time."

"Ah?" Maori Kogoro was very surprised, but then he frowned slightly, "By the way, you said that your father-in-law cleaned up the scene. So has your father-in-law always lived in your house?" Maori

Kogoro looked at the photo taken by the police in his hand and frowned slightly.

"Yes."

Mouri Kogoro nodded slightly, then picked up a photo from it, with a vague smile on his face: "I think I have solved all the conspiracy in this."

Hirota Nanda was surprised when he heard what Mouri Kogoro said!

Officer Megure also brought Shinichi Hirota, who was arrested as a suspect, to Hirota's house. Officer Megure looked at Kogoro Mori hesitantly: "Brother Mori, are you sure? Mr. Shinichi Hirota.

He is not the murderer, how is this possible?"

"Officer Megure, maybe this is the case, because besides Mr. Hirota Shinichi, there is one person in this house who does not have an alibi."

"Oh? You mean..." Everyone looked at Hirota Shinichi's father, Taro Hirota.

"Brother Maori, what is going on? Why did Mr. Taro Hirota kill the victim and blame it on his own son?"

"That's not framing the blame, but deliberately using his own son to take the blame."

Everyone's expressions changed, and Mouri Kogoro seemed to be very sure of his reasoning. Moori Kogoro looked at Hirota Shinichi: "Mr. Shinichi, I don't think you have thought of it at all! His own father actually

Knowing this, you have no choice but to take the blame for your father, right?"

Everyone looked at Hirota Shinichi, who said nothing, which made Mouri Kogoro even more aware that his inference was correct.

"Shinichi Hirota!" Shinichi Hirota couldn't help but trembled, "I think that's what you think, right?"

"Shinichi..." Hirota Minami looked at him, a little surprised.

"Actually, this is why Ms. Hirota came to see me." Mouri Kogoro seemed a little helpless, and then he looked up at Taro Hirota, "This is because Taro Hirota has an affair with his daughter-in-law. In fact, he

I was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so I used the fact that the victim was drunk and had some kind of relationship with the drugged Miss Hirota to blackmail Miss Hirota. Mr. Shinichi, I’m afraid you don’t know about this!

"Actually, Ms. Hirota wanted to tell you about this, but you broke the news. As a last resort, Ms. Hirota took a trick and lured the victim into a trap when Mr. Taro Hirota was alone at home. So

, you know what happened next! As for the items you saw that can point to the evidence of the murderer, I have handed over the photos taken by the police to Officer Megure. I will not say more about other things. "

At this time, Conan was listening to a few of them singing Masked Superman's theme song "Servant of the Masked Superman" on the mountain road. When he took out his mobile phone to check information, he happened to see some media reporting on this matter, and he couldn't help but be frightened.

I was shocked. Is uncle so sharp today?
