Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

At Hattori's house, Haibara and Hattori's mother watched TV in the living room. Dinner had been prepared for a long time and no one came back.

"Are you eating out for dinner today?" Hattori's mother worriedly looked at the entrance.

"Maybe it's because of another case." Huiyuan took out his mobile phone as usual, "Just make a call..."

"Xiao Ai?" At the scene of the crime, Gao Chengcai handed over the dry battery to the forensic personnel for investigation. When he received the call, he was shocked because he had completely forgotten about Xiao Ai.

"Haha, something happened here in Osaka City..." Gao Cheng swallowed his saliva and laughed dryly.

"Huh?" He Ye noticed Gao Cheng who was on the phone, "Is it Xiao Ai? Let's eat outside. I know there is a very good restaurant opposite the Shinbashi in Osaka Castle, which happens to be nearby..."

"Idiot!" Hattori said angrily, "There are murders, how can we have time to eat?"

"It's okay." He Ye smiled and waved his hands, "I have already called my dad to tell him to come over, anyway, the police headquarters is nearby, and this incident is also related to my dad's previous case... Okay That's it, I'll leave it to my dad later, Xiaolan, are you hungry too?"

"Are you kidding me?" Hattori yelled with a dark face, "Someone died right in front of us, how could he still be in the mood..."

From the corner of his eye, he noticed the serious face of He Ye's father who came over, and Hattori's voice lowered: "How could it be possible to have a leisurely meal...haha, so I think you can leave us alone and go to eat with Xiaolan first, okay?"

"If you don't eat it, you'll fall," Heye looked at Hattori with contempt, and pulled Xiaolan away, "Xiaolan, let's eat by ourselves!"

Gao Cheng watched He and Ye walk away, and touched his belly.

It’s okay not to say, but I’m really hungry when I say it, but these guys are embarrassed to eat after making a fuss...

Well, hurry up and find a way to solve the case.

"Xiao Ai," Gao Cheng asked intently while holding his mobile phone, "How much do you know about Japanese history? Especially Toyotomi Hideyoshi..."

Hattori next to him wiped off his cold sweat and discussed the case with his future father-in-law.

"Every time Taiko Hideyoshi won a war, he would hang a small gourd on the horse seal, which later became the famous golden horse seal - Qiancheng Piaotan,

If each little gourd was filled with gold, a thousand would be quite a fortune, and, eagerly added to the historical value, would be almost priceless. "

Hattori guessed: "Judging from the burnt corpse 13 years ago and the scorched corpse discovered a few days ago, and the pottery fragments found on Mr. Kato this time...the three of them may be coveting this treasure. In the end, he was killed by someone who wanted to swallow it alone..."

Hattori looked pointedly at the tour group.

The old man's face darkened: "Officer, can we also go to have dinner before coming back? Because we haven't eaten anything since we finished lunch..."

"Yeah," said the others, "my clothes got wet from the rain, so I have to go back to the hotel to change..."

"We'll be back right away, because the hotel we're staying at is pretty close."

"Okay, okay," Police Officer Otaki said helplessly, "but you have to go and come back quickly, there may be something I want to ask you later."

Gao Cheng frowned and hung up the phone.

There are still too few clues...

Although it is known that the murderer should be among these people, it is impossible to determine who it is, and there is not enough evidence.

Perhaps we should investigate the identities of these people more carefully. It seems that it is not as simple as forming a tour group by accident after meeting on the Internet.

Especially for the old man who is in a bad house, and the sneaky phone call just now is also very problematic.

"Mr. Yuan Shan," Gao Cheng approached He Ye's father, police officer Yuan Shan, "Didn't there be any clues to the murderer in the previous two cases?"

Yuan Shan narrowed his eyes slightly and watched the group of Zaowu leave: "We didn't find any more clues about this, but after the charred corpse was found thirteen years ago, several robberies happened one after another, killing seven people. Killed, there may be some connection between them."

"The robber case?"

"Otaki!" Yuan Shan looked dignified, and after saying a word, he handed over to his subordinate, Police Officer Otaki, and ordered in a low voice, "Find some people to keep an eye on that old man, so that he won't be discovered."

"Yes," Officer Otaki hurriedly responded, "I'll go and explain to my subordinates right away!"

Gao Cheng stared blankly at Yuan Shan who continued to call in a deep voice.

It seems that he doesn't need to remind him, and Papa Heye has already begun to suspect that the old man is messed up.

If the bad house was a robber who haunted it thirteen years ago, that suspicious phone call would indeed have an explanation.

But is Bad House really the murderer?

Looking at it like that, I am afraid of the police, there is no reason to make such a big fuss...

Gao Cheng sighed and touched his stomach, and looked up at the roof of the castle tower where the deceased fell on fire.

We still have to wait for the police to investigate the identities of those people... Maybe there is nothing to eat today?

"It's really you, Detective Kido," Okita Souji and his classmates from the Kendo Club walked out of the crowd with umbrellas to find Gaocheng, "I knew you would be at the murder scene."

"Okita?"

Gao Cheng turned his head and almost collided with a big man. His tall and strong figure did not look like a swordsman at all, so he would look at Gao Cheng closely with his thick eyebrows and big eyes.

"It really looks like it," the big man said in surprise, "it's almost like the Okita brothers, but the posture is lazy and loose..."

"Loose and loose?"

Gao Cheng smiled stiffly and didn't know how to respond to the big man, so he simply asked Okita, "Why are you here? Didn't the high school competition end yesterday?"

"We watched the university game again," Okita explained, "and we all wanted to have a good time by the way, and we happened to have dinner nearby just now...By the way, Kido, is there anything we can do to help?"

Gao Cheng smiled wryly: "No, no need, the police have already taken over."

This is the home ground of the Osaka Prefectural Police. As a famous detective, he can only help out. How could he ask a bunch of laymen for help?

...

Opposite the Shinbashi in Osaka Castle, Xiao Lan and He Ye were dining in a restaurant, suddenly realized that they had lost Conan, and left the restaurant in a hurry.

"It's going to be fine," He Ye comforted, "He should be with Heji and the others, and there are a lot of policemen around, it's impossible for any more cases to happen..."

On the new bridge washed by the pattering rain, a figure in a coat suddenly turned on a lighter and lit his clothes. Under Xiaolan's horrified eyes, he struggled and fell off the bridge with flames.

"what?"

The two of Xiaolan ran to the bridge in a hurry, but only saw the fire raging on the water.

"Come on, come on!"

"It's Ran's voice!" Your Excellency Tenshou, Gao Cheng and Hattori looked towards the direction of Shimbashi together. They didn't care to continue chatting with Okita, and quickly followed Officer Yuanshan and his party to Shimbashi.

"What happened?"

"That, there!" Xiaolan grabbed each other in fear and pointed to the bridge.

Looking along, I saw a completely burned figure floating on the water, and it didn't look like it could be saved.

"That is……"

Several police officers went down to the river to pick up the body and laid it flat on the bank. You could see the staring Katagiri face.

"The name of the deceased is Katagiri Maho, and she was also a member of the tour group just now," Police Officer Otaki explained, "According to Kazuha and the others' description, she suddenly ignited fire on her coat, and then fell off ...However, the main cause of her death was a severe blow to the back of her head, I think she hit the stone pier when she fell..."

"Does that mean suicide?"

Gao Cheng's eyes flicked.

It's 'self-immolation' again...
