Conan: Start from Lucky Three

Chapter 183 Mrs. Kudo, you don’t want to either.4k
The suspect in the attempted theft case has been identified, but can the police successfully arrest the suspect based on the clues given by Tachibana Shizuka?

Hard to say.

The reason was that there were too many unrelated people rushing into the scene. As long as the suspect was about to die and denied it, the police actually had no way to deal with her.

Let’s say I had never seen a theft scene before, so I followed other people in and looked around. Isn’t it normal to leave footprints at this time?
The rest, such as hair and fingerprints, can all be explained this way. The Metropolitan Police Department's detectives have always had a reputation for being "gentle." The suspect, a graduate student, might actually be able to manipulate the police with his verbal skills.

Tachibana Shizuka and Hattori Heiji simply handed over the suspected targets and clues to the detective in charge of the investigation.

As for whether they can catch people with these things, that is none of their business.

Tachibana Shizuka is not their parents. He can't tell them how to solve the problems without knowing the solution. Then he can teach them how to solve the cases step by step.

In fact, the world does not necessarily need high school students to save it.

After chatting with Tachibana Shizuka all the way, Hattori Heiji honestly almost forgot that a murder had occurred in the hotel.

When the two of them entered the scene, they happened to find Kudo Yukiko reasoning in front of everyone.

"Tsk, I thought he could find a way to make his mother fall asleep too, but he actually acted like a double act?"

Kudo Yukiko has great acting skills, and her husband and son are both proficient in reasoning, so her reasoning now looks pretty good.

Tachibana Shizuka didn't interrupt. After arriving at the scene, he first turned on the Eye of Insight to scan the scene, and then handed all the clues and evidence to Hattori Heiji.

Hattori Heiji deduced based on clues and evidence and eventually identified the suspect.

When Hattori Heiji locked in on the suspect, Kudo Yukiko's reasoning had just reached the final part.

"How about it?"

"Conan's reasoning is correct. That male graduate student must be the murderer of this incident."

Tachibana Shizuka glanced at the somewhat nervous male graduate student and reasoned that even the most slow-witted person would be able to realize that the "famous detective" Kudo Yukiko was talking about him.

But people always have a lucky mentality. As long as no one is named, the male graduate student is ready to hide himself in the crowd and be an inconspicuous person.

"But these two are really a perfect match, aren't they? One went to the hotel owner's office and searched everywhere but came back empty-handed. The other just went straight into the bedroom and robbed her?
This really is the case: men and women working together don’t get tired.”

This time, Tachibana Shizuka and Hattori Heiji were observing from a bystander perspective. From this bystander perspective, Tachibana Shizuka easily discovered that the male and female graduate student couple were not in harmony but actually were not together.

To be precise, it cannot be said that they are incompatible in nature. It can only be said that this criminal couple each has their own tensions.

The two men committed the crimes in secret, so now they are nervous and vigilant in different directions.

This behavior was fine when the two of them were standing separately, but now that they were subconsciously standing together, this subtle awkwardness was suddenly magnified a lot.

After staring at the criminal couple for a while, Tachibana Shizuka withdrew his gaze with a bit of boredom. The subsequent performance of these two couples was nothing more than kneeling down to confess or kneeling down to cry bitterly.

After all, one has to try to whitewash himself. If it were Tachibana Shizuka, he would do the same.

On the one hand, it can win the sympathy of others, and on the other hand, revealing some hidden facts will help the lawyer to help defend you in court.

No matter how ridiculous the story is, you have to have a story to tell. As for how many points this story is worth, and how much the sentence can be reduced, that depends on the judge's taste that day.

Just like the motive given by the male graduate student for murder now was that his boss wrote a fan fiction in which he slandered Holmes's sincere feelings.

He came to ask for an explanation, but the hotel owner had no intention of admitting his mistake. He even shamelessly humiliated him and his idol Sherlock Holmes.

Finally, he killed the hotel owner in a rage.

In general, it is because the fan fiction written by the boss is OOC, and he, a righteous fan, wants to execute the Dzi beads on behalf of his imaginary idol.

Considering what Tachibana Shizuka had heard and seen in Beika Town and Haido Town, this motive for murder was actually not that outrageous.

There are many people who are more outrageous than him.

But in terms of novelty, the male graduate student's motive for murder is still somewhat unique.

Other people kill for someone or something, but this guy kills for a person who doesn't exist in reality.

Well done, well done! It is because of the existence of people like them that Beika Town has become more and more abnormal.

"Alright, alright, stop whining. You haven't been shot yet, and judging by the court's behavior, you probably won't get the death penalty.

Let's talk about something serious. Where is the original edition of "A Study in Scarlet"?

Tachibana Shizuka had just specifically asked the detective and found out that they did not find the first edition of "A Study in Scarlet" that the hotel owner had always been proud of at the scene.

This means that the murderer took away the book "A Study in Scarlet" after killing the person.

It's not necessarily a case of theft. Maybe the murderer came here just for the book "A Study in Scarlet"?

The male graduate student's sobbing stopped abruptly, and he raised his head woodenly and looked at Tachibana Shizuka.

"Brother, you're really stubborn, aren't you? I've cried and said all this inconsolable grief, and yet you're still obsessed with that book, 'A Study in Scarlet'?"
Your long paragraph makes me look stupid just now!
It's not necessarily that other people can't hear the nonsense in the motive for murder, but the problem is that the person kneeling on the ground and repenting is a murderer who had killed someone not long ago.

If you expose him at this time, can you guarantee that he will just smile awkwardly instead of attacking you and dragging you down with him?

Tachibana Shizuka can guarantee that.

Because he was carrying the Equality Device. No matter if the opponent was a prime minister or a beggar, if this thing hit the vital part, there would be basically no chance of survival.

After the murderer's confession was interrupted by Tachibana Shizuka, the detectives at the scene finally remembered their duties.

Several detectives handcuffed the male graduate student and took him to a police car. As for the female graduate student, her mental defenses were extremely fragile because her boyfriend had been arrested.

The leading police captain just said a few words to her, and she simply admitted to her crime of attempted theft.

Then he was also escorted into the car by the criminal police.

This made the rest of the tourists in the tour group seem a little confused.

The organizer and sponsor of the tour group were completely wiped out. Everyone had already seen the test questions that were originally used.

The prize was turned into evidence and taken back by the local detectives, which made them all confused. Let's go! We just left home not long ago, and we have to go back now?

Let's not leave. There seems to be no point in staying here. Is it better to just stand by the cliff and enjoy the mountain breeze?
"Hattori, help me get Conan away. I want to have a chat with Mrs. Kudo." When Tachibana Shizuka and Kudo Yukiko met eyes, they knew that both sides were ready to show their cards.

So he asked Hattori Heiji to take Conan away.

Upon hearing this, Hattori Heiji came to Conan without saying a word and picked him up with one hand.

"Hey, kid, were you very active on the scene just now?"

Just now at the scene, Kudo Yukiko was responsible for orally narrating the reasoning process, and Conan was the one responsible for the practice.

Others thought that this was Kudo Yukiko's style, but in fact, Kudo Yukiko just memorized these reasonings by rote.

But forget it when it comes to asking her to practice the technique, she can't even figure out how to manipulate a fishing line.

"Wait, what are you doing?!" Conan was suddenly lifted into the air by Hattori Heiji, and his two short legs flapped continuously.

He even stretched out his hands towards Kudo Yukiko, trying to ask his mother to save his life.

Unfortunately, Conan's mother only had eyes for Tachibana Shizuka at the moment, and chose to turn a blind eye to her own son Kudo Yukiko's call for help and watch him die.

Since he won’t die anyway, he might as well consider it as an opportunity to train Shinichi’s social skills!

"Come on, kid, let's have a good chat. I'm very curious about you!" Hattori Heiji is increasingly showing signs of evolving into a fun-loving person.

Hattori Heiji still has complicated feelings towards Kudo Shinichi, who was once his rival.

There is competition to see who is better, but there is also mutual admiration between fellow high school detectives.

But now all these complicated emotions have vanished into thin air - what savior of the Japanese police, what Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era, what Kudo of Kanto
I play the savior of the Japanese police, the Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era, and the Kudo of Kanto!

One is better than three. Is there anything happier than this?
Hattori Heiji was like a weird old man who robbed a decent woman, and he walked away with Conan with a grin.

Only after he could no longer hear Conan's call did Tachibana Shizuka walk up to Kudo Yukiko.

What surprised Tachibana Shizuka was that it was Kudo Yukiko who spoke first.

"Although it's a little late, I am very grateful to Mr. Tachibana for saving my son's life." Kudo Yukiko thanked Tachibana Shizuka very seriously with a rare serious attitude.

By the way, if Kudo Yukiko hadn't reminded Tachibana Shizuka, I would have almost forgotten that he had saved Conan's life.

This is probably the main reason why Conan has such complicated emotions towards him. No matter what Conan wants to do to Tachibana Shizuka, he always has to think of the fact that Tachibana Shizuka once saved his life.

Or the kind that risked their lives to save others.
The bad thing about being a good person is that all kinds of rules and regulations always form layers of constraints on them, making it difficult for them to move forward at certain times.

"It just happened. Although I had some doubts at the time, I wasn't sure. If I wasn't sure, I couldn't let a child die in front of me.

Or will you give me his life in exchange for my own survival?"

Tachibana Shizuka's words were all very well, but in reality, the situation wasn't that dangerous at all. The one holding the gun wasn't Numabuchi Kiichirō, but Tachibana Shizuka.

Throwing Conan away also means not wanting Conan to see something he shouldn't see.

All in all, this was a beautiful misunderstanding, and Tachibana Shizuka didn't take it to heart.

But looking at Kudo Yukiko's appearance, is the Kudo family taking it seriously?

"No matter what, it's a fact that you saved Shinichi's life." Kudo Yukiko made her showdown in this way.

"Verbal thanks are ultimately insincere. Tachibana-san, if there's anything you need from the Kudo family, please feel free to ask."

Tachibana Shizuka suddenly grinned: "The criminal organization that made Kudo shrink. Can you find a way to wipe them out?

Or maybe we could just uproot them, or at worst expel all of them from Japan, right?"

As soon as Tachibana Shizuka finished speaking, Kudo Yukiko's expression suddenly became quite ugly - if they could do this, would the couple still be separated in two countries, with the husband responsible for finding clues and the wife responsible for raising the children?

Does Kudo Yukiko really like taking care of children? Who the hell would want to take care of a 17 or 18-year-old who is as naughty as a 6 or 7-year-old?

Yukiko Kudo thinks she is also a child! It hasn't been long since she started taking care of Conan, but she already feels tired.

Kudo Yukiko finally sighed and said helplessly: "Don't joke, Tachibana-san, you know our family can't do these things at all."

Tachibana Shizuka looked innocent: "But the problem is, apart from this matter, there is nothing your family can do to help me?"

Shizuka Tachibana's connections include the Hattori family, the Suzuki family, and the Ooka family. With these connections, Shizuka Tachibana doesn't need any other useless social interactions.

To put it bluntly, if the three of them can't do it, there are probably few people in Japan who can accomplish it.

What's more, Tachibana Shizuka doesn't have any other needs.

"I thought you would make Shinichi disappear from Xiaolan's sight forever?" Kudo Yukiko still spoke tentatively.

"Disappeared from Xiaolan's sight? Why? Do you think Kudo would cause any interference to me?"

Tachibana Shizuka was quite disdainful of the shrunken Kudo, also known as Conan: "If nothing else, tell me, if Kudo can't change back, does that mean Xiaolan has to wait for him for ten years?

Or do you want Xiaolan to marry him, a kid who has taken some mysterious drugs and has developed side effects, is incurable, and is ten years older than him?"

Tachibana Shizuka narrowed his eyes and unscrupulously expressed his dissatisfaction with the Kudo family: "As a human being, at least you can't be so selfish, Mrs. Kudo?"

"Since you've come to confront me, let's be direct. If you can find a way to turn Conan back into Kudo and successfully defeat that organization.

I'm totally fine with Kudo coming back to compete with me, if I lose it's because I'm not as skilled as him."

"But if you haven't settled anything yet, and you still want Conan to use his current identity to stir up trouble, or to put the trouble at the winery on Xiaolan's family.

Then you will find that there are many things I can do. Madam, you don’t want the whole world to know about your son’s condition, right?
Mrs. Kudo? "
