Ke Xue: Shinichi and I are childhood friends

Hakuba Tan understood something after a brief thought. He looked at Yuya with hesitation, and finally asked the question in his heart.

"I heard that every time Kid went to the Suzuki Group to steal things, he would be caught by their second daughter, Suzuki Sonoko.

Although he was not caught in the end, it seems that a lot of photos were taken. It is said that... there are also photos of the two of them?"

"I have a bold guess," Hakuba Tan looked at Yuya with deep eyes. The head office of the Suzuki Group is in Tokyo, and Yuya is the most famous detective in Tokyo. In this case...

"Did you plan those actions behind the scenes?"

Yuya waved his hands repeatedly: "Hey, hey, don't talk nonsense, those things have nothing to do with me..."

Hakuba Tan frowned slightly: Not him? Who is it?

He had fought with Kid once, and he knew very well how difficult Kid was.

That Suzuki Sonoko was just a little girl from a rich family. How could she have the ability to catch the trace of Kaito Kid?

Could it be Kudo Shinichi? But Kudo Shinichi has been missing for quite some time.

While Hakuba Tan was thinking about it, Yuya also said something he hadn't finished yet: "...I just helped Sonoko to decipher the code in the Kid's notice letter, so that she knew where and when Kaito Kid would appear. As for what happened to Kid, it has nothing to do with me."

If others knew that Suzuki Sonoko's fanatical fan behavior was all his masterpiece, wouldn't his reputation be damaged?

Hakuba Tan: "...Can you finish your words at once?" He wasted so many brain cells!

The two suddenly started discussing Kaito Kid, and even Koshimizu Nanatsuki joined in halfway.

Hattori Heiji next to him was a little confused, and he asked Conan in a low voice.

"Are Kamiya and Hakuba familiar with each other?"

Conan whispered back: "If I remember correctly, they have met once, right? Maybe they left contact information and sent emails to each other?"

"But they are discussing Kid, a thief that many people want to catch! Especially a certain police inspector..."

Hattori Heiji complained speechlessly: "There are also many people who don't want him to be caught, and they are his big fans." He remembered that he was fooled by Kid last time in Osaka, but Yuya had already cracked the code of the preview letter.

He and Conan were running around like headless flies, and Miss Suzuki had already staked out in advance with the help of Yuya, and it seems that they even took a photo together?

This is probably the only photo with Kid in the world, right?

Suddenly, he remembered the unpleasant memories.

Hattori Heiji complained somewhat dissatisfiedly: "Hey, isn't our focus now the Detective Koshien competition? What are you discussing Kid for?"

The three people who were talking excitedly were stunned when they heard this, looked at each other awkwardly, and turned their faces away and pretended to cough.

Hattori Heiji and Conan immediately lowered their dead fish eyes.

"Hmm," Hakuba coughed hard with his fist covering his mouth, and said seriously, "Then the content of the second question is to find the high school detective who solved the secret room of the lavender villa. Everyone agrees with this premise, right?"

Yuya added: "In addition, perhaps the origin of the screw is also part of the answer."

Conan suddenly said: "Assuming that the young lady really committed suicide, what was the reason for the suicide?"

Hatsuori Heiji pinched his chin and said: "In this way, there are actually three questions for the second question?"

Yuya looked at Tokatsu Junya and Koshimizu Nanatsuki and asked: "Do you two have anything to add?"

Koshimizu Nanatsuki smiled slightly: "No, you have said it all."

Tokatsu Junya has calmed down after this period of time. He thinks he should not be exposed, so he pretends to say: "But now we don't have any clues about the detective, how can we investigate?"

Koshimizu Nanatsuki couldn't help but look at him.

She wanted to expose Tokatsu Junya directly, but doing so would most likely expose herself, and there would be no way to avenge her best friend.

Yes, although Nanatsuki Koshimizu's killing intent has calmed down, she still hasn't given up the idea of ​​revenge. If there is a chance, she will still do it without hesitation.

Because her best friend is dead, and even if Tokatsu Junya reveals that his reasoning is wrong and causes the suspect to commit suicide, the punishment he will receive will not be very severe or even no punishment.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu will never allow such a thing to happen.

Is there any way to expose Tokatsu Junya without exposing himself? Nanatsuki Koshimizu thought quickly.

Yuya pinched his chin and suddenly said, "Have you ever thought that the detective is among us?"

"What?" Everyone was shocked and looked at Yuya in surprise, especially Tokatsu Junya, whose expression was very surprised.Li almost lost control.

Hattori Heiji said in a deep voice: "What do you mean by this?"

Yuya analyzed slowly: "I felt strange from the beginning. Let's not talk about the four of us. Why did the organizer spend so much effort to invite Hakuba, who is far away in England?"

Hakuba Tan was also stunned. He really hadn't considered this issue. It was just that his mother-in-law cried and begged him to participate, saying that she wanted to let others know that in addition to Kamiya Yuya and Kudo Shinichi, there was also Hakuba Tan in Tokyo's high school detectives, so he came to participate in this Detective Koshien.

Others also pondered.

Yuya continued: "Usually, the reason for doing this is because there is something special about Hakuba, who is different from us, or maybe all of us have something in common."

"Differences? Common points?"

Several people looked at Hakuba Tan carefully, making him a little uncomfortable.

"Hey, don't look at me with such a scary look." Hakuba Tan laughed dryly. It's not a good feeling to be suspected.

"I know!" Conan suddenly slapped his palm.

Others looked at Conan subconsciously.

Conan had a well-behaved expression on his face: "The similarity and difference between Brother Baiba and us is that he speaks fluent Neon, but his accent is a bit strange."

Baiba Tan was stunned and immediately understood: "So that's it. Because I have been living abroad for a long time, although I still speak fluent Neon, I will inevitably have some English accents. It sounds like a foreigner, right?"

Everyone nodded in understanding.

Baiba Tan suddenly pointed at Hattori Heiji: "If that's the case, isn't this reckless detective the same? The accent of speaking."

"Ah?" Hattori Heiji's forehead popped up a well, "Are you kidding, Osaka accent is the standard Neon language, okay!"

"Sorry," Baiba Tan shrugged his shoulders, "Although it's a bit rude, I still think so."

Hattori Heiji's face darkened. Is this guy deliberately looking for trouble?

"Puchi..." A sound of trying to hold back laughter came from below.

Hattori Heiji looked down and saw Conan covering his mouth to hold back laughter, his face red.

Noticing Hattori Heiji glaring at him, Conan quickly explained: "Sorry, sorry, I didn't mean it. I just suddenly remembered that we went to see Teacher Judy together that day, and it seemed to be a similar conversation?"

Hattori Heiji recalled the scene of that day, and suddenly, his face became darker.

Yuya and Hakuba Tan didn't know what the two were talking about, but they just looked at them, one laughing.jpg and the other not laughing.jpg, and they felt a little funny.

It was like two children arguing about something.

Hattori Heiji felt that he was insulted, no, the insult might be a bit serious, anyway, he was offended.

He knew very well that he was not the high school detective who unlocked the secret room, and Hakuba Tan was most likely not either - although this guy was a bit arrogant, he had a strong reasoning ability and was a man who dared to do and take responsibility.

Then the remaining people...

Looking around the room, first of all, Yuya is ruled out - let's not talk about whether this guy might have misunderstood the incident, just his standard spoken language is really hard to find fault with, which is inconsistent with the common points between him and Hakuba Tan;

As for Nanatsuki Koshimizu, although he was selected as the southern representative, he has never shown a particularly strong reasoning ability. The only action he took was to solve the method of the locked room. After that, he has always been "Me too" and "I think so too", and inexplicably became a repeater.

Sure enough, he is a new detective who has only solved 100 cases, and he is still a rookie.

Hattori Heiji temporarily listed Nanatsuki Koshimizu as a suspect candidate in his heart.

Conan set his eyes on Junya Tokatsu.

Suspicious, this person is very suspicious!

First of all, the method of solving the locked room is faster than Yuya, which is simply unheard of.

You know, in terms of reasoning ability and speed of solving cases, even Kudo Shinichi has to say: You win, Kamiya Yuya.

And this Tokitsu Junya can actually solve the secret room method before Yuya? Doesn't that mean he has defeated Yuya?

In other words, Tokitsu Junya > Kamiya Yuya > Kudo Shinichi (Conan) > Hattori Heiji.

Is it possible? Absolutely impossible!

But let's make a bold guess. If Tokitsu Junya is the high school detective who solved the secret room of Lavender Villa, then he knew the answer from the beginning, and it makes sense that he solved the method so quickly.

In this way, everything becomes reasonable.

Of course, Conan would not think that the other party is suspicious just because of this kind of idealistic idea, nor would he tolerate others.People who are better than you.

And the other party has become strange since he mentioned the lavender villa incident. He is not as arrogant as at the beginning, and even his strange habit of speaking has disappeared.

Wait, habit of speaking?

Conan's eyes lit up, and he opened his mouth and said in a childlike voice: "Speaking of which, the tone of that big brother's speech is also a bit strange."

"Huh?" Several people looked at Conan in confusion.

Conan put his hands behind his head and said innocently: "That brother, didn't he always call himself "young man, young man" before? Isn't this strange?"

Tokatsu Junya's face changed slightly, and he laughed dryly: "This, this is just my personal speaking habit, there is nothing strange about it, right?"

Hattori Heiji looked at Tokatsu Junya inquiringly. Some people do have some strange habits of speaking, which is normal, but in the current situation, it becomes abnormal.

Conan suddenly said, "It's strange, big brother, since when did you stop using 'xiaosheng' and start using me? It seems like since ..."

He lowered his head slightly, and the light reflected by his glasses covered his eyes. He said in a deep voice: "... since we mentioned the lavender villa incident, right?"

This time, everyone noticed something was wrong and looked at Shijin Junya with suspicion.

Shijin Junya was a little flustered. What's wrong with this kid? Is his observation so sharp?

He forced a smile: "Don't joke, little brother, do you want to say that I am the high school student detective?"

Conan blinked and said innocently: "I didn't say that, I just think your accent is a little strange."

Shijin Junya choked and couldn't speak.

Tokizu Junya pointed at Nanatsuki Koshimizu: "What about her?"

Yuya, Hakuba Tan, Hattori Heiji, Conan, the four of them looked at Nanatsuki Koshimizu for a while, and finally shook their heads together: "I don't think her accent is strange."

"But let's list her as a suspect candidate."

Tokizu Junya was silent. He also knew that there was nothing wrong with Nanatsuki Koshimizu's words, but he just wanted to drag someone else into the water to confuse the audience, so that the probability of being discovered would be lower.

But obviously he failed. These three big and one small are not easy to fool.

Yuya clapped his hands and said: "Okay, so the suspects are Hakuba Tan, Hattori Heiji, and Tokizu Junya, and the suspect candidates are me and Nanatsuki Koshimizu. Do you have any opinions?"

Everyone shook their heads to show that they had no opinions, but they felt a little weird in their hearts-this feeling of being treated as a suspect and having to admit that they are suspects...

Don't say it, it's quite fresh!

"Well," Hakuba Detective coughed lightly, "Although the suspect has been confirmed temporarily, are there any clues other than the strange tone of voice?"

To be precise, this is not a clue, because they deduced it themselves.

Yuya touched his chin and looked at the file: "So far, the only information we have is this file. I suggest reading it carefully from beginning to end. Before, we only read the part about the secret room of the villa. We haven't read the other contents carefully, right?"

No one objected, so each person divided a few pages and started reading. After reading the one in his hand, he exchanged it with others in order.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked at the few pages of the file in her hand absent-mindedly. This file was obtained before she set off. Even she herself did not have time to check it carefully. She only read the part about the secret room technique. Otherwise, she would not have recreated the secret room so completely.

Will there be any information in it that can identify the detective?

Soon, Yuya said: "I have some discoveries here."

Others hurried over.

Yuya pointed to a section and said, "This is the transcript of the detective's statement. It explains the locked room technique, which is the same as what we know."

"But he didn't mention the degree of rust when it comes to the screws, which means..."

Hattori Heiji took over the conversation and said, "He didn't find it?"

Hakuba Tan objected, "Being able to unlock this locked room shows that this detective has some skills. He shouldn't have missed such an obvious problem, right?"

Even they could find the problem with the screws through the photo, so the detective holding the real thing should have seen it more clearly.

"I think he might have found it, but didn't say it."
