Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

The police asked Xiaolong again this morning," Nishimura Shiho put away his phone and said, "It was Yang Xiaolong, the son of the head of the regiment, and this time he was the only one who didn't have an alibi. "

"Could you introduce us to the people from the acrobatic troupe later?" Gao Cheng suggested.

Because of what happened yesterday, I haven't had time to meet the people from the acrobatic troupe. If you don't even know the people, the investigation is just a joke.

It is true that the law forbids a private eye, but that is not possible if he is left alone.

The truth is the truth and will not be affected by his identity.

"I've been waiting for a long time," the restaurant waiter brought a plate of hairy crabs, and said embarrassedly, "I can't make dry pot beef for the time being, do you want to change the dish?"

"Then let's switch to stir-fried potatoes." Gao Cheng glanced at the menu and said.

The time in the world of Conan is a bit confusing, but the current Shanghai is 2016. He came to this restaurant that year and was very impressed by the fried potatoes here. Compared with any Shanghai specialties, he likes to eat them more, and only this dish is added with sugar Not so strange.

When the waiter left, Nishimura Shiho couldn't help being surprised and said: "So what Sonoko said is true, Kido-kun is a language genius, proficient in eight languages..."

"what?"

Gao Cheng looked at Yuanzi suspiciously.

What is proficient in eight languages?

You can learn Chinese from the very beginning, Japanese is for traveling benefits, English is for drawing cards, and others, you can also know a few words of Portuguese, Korean, Thai... Do Xiba and Sawadika count?

According to the system standards, the only ones who are really proficient in English are those who can be teachers.

"It's so sweet." After the dish was served, Yuanzi took a bite of the dry-stir-fried potatoes, and his eyebrows jumped up. "But it's delicious, Ah Cheng, how do you know this dish?"

"There are introductions on the TV." Gao Cheng made a universal excuse.

It was already afternoon after dinner, and the Bund was just as in his impression, crowded with people before evening. Fortunately, it was not a holiday, and there was no need for police officers and soldiers to maintain order.

Because of the theater case, the original travel plan was not implemented, and everyone followed the big ship after a meal.

"Hello,

"The current person in charge of the acrobatic troupe, Sou Todo, after being introduced by Nishimura to formally meet Gaocheng and the others, he enthusiastically handed out a business card, "I am Sou Todo, the producer of the Young's Acrobatic Troupe, and the two are the famous detective Mori. Kogoro and Kido Takasei, right? It’s such an honor to be able to meet both of you in Shanghai at the same time... There was something wrong with yesterday’s performance, but I will definitely let you two have fun next time..."

Gao Cheng didn't intend to deal with these people, and stood quietly at the back to let the uncle come forward.

This kind of thing is more suitable for an uncle, who is older and more experienced, and looks stupid in some aspects, it is easy to lower the vigilance of the other party, and inadvertently show his feet.

Fujido quickly left on the pretext that he still had work to do. He obviously didn't want to have too much contact with the detective, but Uncle Mori didn't care either, and couldn't move his eyes away from the beautiful girls in the acrobatic troupe.

Although there was no performance today, several key members of the acrobatic troupe stayed on board.

Leader Yang's adopted daughter, Yang Leili, who is about the same age as Yuanzi and Xiaolan, looks like a sister next door but is very precocious. She was the temporary actor who played the mermaid yesterday.

Then there is Yuji Koda, the photographer who made the photo album of the acrobatic troupe. He has long curly hair like wool, wearing a black vest and leather pants. When they arrived at Gaocheng, they took several pictures in silence.

There are also stage managers, an old man named Zhou Liangyou, and a young man named Shi Damin.

The last person I met was Yang Xiaolong who had just returned from the Public Security Bureau, a boy with a weird temper who didn't know how to deal with people very much, and returned to his room with a frowning face without even saying hello.

Only these people live in the ship, either Nishimura Shiho who does not have his own residence, or Mr. Zhou who stays on the ship for some reason.

At the same time, these people are also the object of suspicion by the police.

There are metal detectors at the entrance of the theater, so the people living on the boat are most likely to be the murderers of Captain Yang, and Yang Xiaolong, who has no alibi and has been arguing with his father, is the most suspect.

Especially yesterday, when the victim named Maruzhenna was killed, Yang Xiaolong did not have an alibi.

If it weren't for the fact that the murder weapon had not been found, the police would have arrested Yang Xiaolong directly.

The members of the troupe were quite jealous of "Silan", and Gao Cheng didn't intend to ask more questions, but asked Takagi from Japan to help investigate several Japanese in the acrobatic troupe, including a friend from the garden of Nishimura Shiho.

If there is no problem with the identity, there should be a result soon.

On the stage of the theater, Gao Cheng finally had the opportunity to inspect it carefully. When Yang Leili, the adopted daughter of the head of the group, visited the stage of the acrobatic troupe, he inspected around the water tank.

"This is the water tank used for the murloc performance," Yang Leili introduced, "I practiced it before, but it was too difficult, so today's first performance is not very good..."

Gao Cheng stood beside the water tank, and the scene of the crime occurred again in his mind.

The brightly colored female floating corpse in the water, the scene of both terror and beauty, is probably hard for everyone to forget that night, and maybe they will dream about ghosts and the like.

Of course, in Gao Cheng's eyes, it was just one detail clue after another.

Judging from the bleeding, the death time was very short.

He had seen the group photo of the acrobatic troupe carefully just now. He had seen the murdered foreign girl during her performance. In one of the shows before the murloc show, the foreign girl was still performing a turntable.

That is to say, the case happened right after the scene. Considering the time it took to dispose of the body, he might have been killed right after the scene.

It happened that Yang Xiaolong's turn was assisted in the show after the turntable. It was also at that time that Yang Xiaolong didn't show up for some reason, so he was suspected by the police.

Gao Cheng recalled yesterday's performance.

Yang Xiaolong reappeared when he was performing Crossing the Circle. Unlike others, he didn't wear shoes, which seemed unnatural. After that, he disappeared again until he appeared on the stage as a murloc wearing a mask and coir raincoat in the murloc show. body.

If it is a real murderer, there is no need to be so obvious, the alibi is too coincidental, it feels like being used by the real murderer.

If this Yang Xiaolong really wants to kill someone, he can do it at any time in private, and there is no reason for the corpse to suddenly appear on the stage and cause panic.

Two things can be confirmed. First, the murderer needs to use Yang Xiaolong as a cover to interfere with the police investigation, just like using Si Lan's curse to cover up his real motive. Second, the murderer must have some purpose in making the corpse appear on the stage.

Judging from the results, the police immediately sealed off the scene and then searched... It seems that there is no benefit to the murderer, the later the body is found, the better.

Gao Cheng pondered and compared slowly, the poster of the Bund Theater flashed in his mind.

"Leili," Gao Cheng turned around and asked, "I remember there was a bear in your poster, right? There was also a performance of a bear in the program list, but why didn't you see it yesterday?"

"this……"

"Mr. Todo changed it," Shiho Nishimura explained. "Because Marugena couldn't be found, the finale show was changed to Naughty, and Naughty is the bear in the poster."

"Switch the order?"

Gao Cheng grasped the only possibility.

The show ended because of the dead body, so the finale bear didn't have to appear on stage.

If that's what the Killer is for, why the Killer doesn't want Bear on stage...

Will the murderer be exposed?

"Can you take me to see Naughty?" Gao Cheng asked with interest under Yang Leili's puzzled eyes.

Although there are still some things that are not clear, it seems that he is going to crack the case again this time.

There are too many threads to help him find the killer.
