Conan reborn as a detective

Chapter 427 Girl's Day Doll 4
"Sorry, I've been weird since just now..."

Fatty Jinqu couldn't help asking: "Who is this young man? I always feel familiar..."

Next to him, Sanzhong narrowed his eyes: "Could it be the famous Kido detective?"

"That's right!" Ayumi said boldly, "Brother Kido is a famous detective who can solve any case, if you steal the scroll, you should admit it quickly!"

"Ah?" The fat man stammered profusely with sweat, "Even if that's the case, I really didn't steal the painting!"

"But only uncle is the most suspected, and there is no alibi!" Mitsuhiko turned to Gao Cheng with a positive expression, "Right, Brother Kido?"

Gao Cheng's mouth twitched slightly.

"Mr. Jin Qu is indeed the most suspicious person, but the prisoner should not be him..."

"Ah? Isn't it?" Mitsuhiko looked disappointed, "Who the hell stole the scroll?"

Gao Cheng looked at the silent old woman, paused, and said under the gaze of everyone: "There are two doubts. Although the living room and bedroom have been flipped, the flipped positions are not high. If they are slightly higher, they will not be moved." But... the other thing is these Girl's Day dolls."

"What happened to the doll?"

"Look carefully, is there any change from what was placed before?"

Gao Cheng took the camera and called up the photos he had taken earlier.

"The positions of the emperor and the queen are reversed, and the positions of the other 13 dolls are also somewhat deviated..."

"Really, really!" Ayumi leaned in front of the camera screen.

"So what?" Xiao Ai looked at the wall where the painting scroll was originally hanging. "Do you want to say that the prisoner accidentally hit the shelf and knocked off the doll when he took the scroll, and then put the doll in the wrong place when he rearranged it?"

"I see!" Mitsuhiko said excitedly, "The prisoner is someone who doesn't know how to place dolls, so it's obviously Mr. Jinqu. He said that he doesn't have a daughter, so he's not interested in dolls..."

Gao Cheng said with a smile: "The only thing wrong is the positions of the emperor and empress. If you want to rearrange so many dolls within a few minutes, it is impossible for those who are not familiar with it... In fact, the positions of the emperor and empress are just different from before. , I don’t quite understand if there is a mistake, maybe it’s another way of putting it..."

"Brother Kido is right," Conan interjected, "This kind of arrangement should be the traditional one in Kyoto, right, old woman?"

The old man closed his eyes lightly: "There are indeed many people in Kyoto who do this kind of pose..."

Guanye housewife looked at the old man worriedly: "Mom..."

"Hey," Fatty Jinqu said in surprise, "Could it be that the culprit is really the old lady herself?"

"It's not a prisoner," Gao Cheng continued, "but the one who hid the scroll is indeed the old lady...Mr. Mie is an expert. He can tell that these are dolls from Kyoto, and he obviously knows the traditional way of placing them. However, he and Mrs. Guan Ye has seen Ayumi's arrangement, there is no need to change it specially, and they don't have time to do these things, the only one who can do it is an old lady who directs and acts by herself..."

"Where is the painting scroll?" Jin Qu looked at the doll stand on the seven steps in confusion, "Why did the old lady knock down this table?"

Gao Cheng didn't answer directly: "Take all these dolls away first... The dolls are not actually the reason why the mother-in-law will rearrange the dolls because they were knocked over while running away. You can know by removing the red felt..."

"This is……"

Jinqu and the others helped to remove the dolls and lifted up the red carpet on the steps, all of them were startled by the scrolls spread out and hidden under the red carpet.

"It turns out that it's hard to see the painting without removing all the dolls... How did you know?"

"This is because the dolls placed on the slender sticks are slightly inclined forward. The thick sticks can be placed on top and covered with red felt, but the thin sticks can't..."

Gao Cheng silently looked at the silent old man: "But it's still hard to detect. My mother-in-law probably wants to wait for the police to come and search, and then secretly put away the dolls while they are packing up."

"But," Guan Ye looked at the hanging scrolls spread out on the shelf, "how could Mom do such a thing..."

Jin Qu said: "Could it be that, old lady, do you really want to pretend that the painting scroll was stolen and defraud the insurance money?"

"I wouldn't do that kind of damned thing..."

The old man was a little older, looking at the Thunder God hanging scroll quietly: "Because this scroll is the patron saint of Guan Ye's family, I did this to hide it, and I will talk about it when my son comes back to see it... Guan Ye I can no longer repeat my past mistakes..."

"mistake?"

"Another Fengshen scroll that Mr. Jinqu collected was actually found in the warehouse of my husband's house, just like the Thor scroll, but when my son and his wife got married, they had no money to buy a house, so I sold Fengshen. Tell my husband on a company trip..."

The old man said melancholy with his hands behind his back: "Who knew that the passenger boat my husband was on sank, and the big typhoon they encountered was like a wind blowing up..."

Jin Qu's tongue trembled: "Then, that Fengshen is a cursed scroll?"

"There's no curse," the old man shook his head. "Isn't this often the case? The doll is placed next to the child's pillow to eliminate the bad luck Zog's stand-in. Perhaps these two paintings also bear the disaster that befalls us on behalf of our Guanye family. So please don't interfere with this Thor painting scroll, we will not sell it."

"Uh...haha," Jin Qu waved his hands sweating profusely, "It's enough for me to have Fengshen, just pretend I didn't say it..."

Hearing this, the old man let go of his worries, took a silent look in the room, and turned to Gao Chengdao: "Detective Chenghu, I have caused you trouble, take me to the police station now..."

"Why are you going to the police station?" Gao Cheng shook his head and smiled, "Grandma is just joking, and besides, I'm not a policeman, just a passer-by detective who wants to drink some sweet wine... I'm hungry after staying for so long gone."

The old man was stunned, and the creases on his face parted: "I'll cook for you right away."

……

At the stairs on the 6th floor, Xiao Ai folded her arms and leaned gently on the side like a little adult, with a sentimental smile on her face.

The afterglow of the setting sun is facing the steps, and through the French windows, you can see the sunset glow of the whole sky. The houses and streets are dyed red, like a world of blood.

How many times can I see this sad color...

"Sometimes the sunset is also very beautiful, right?" Gao Cheng walked under the reflection of the setting sun and looked at the sky, "Xiao Ai, Ayumi didn't want those Dolls for Girls' Day, or..."

Xiao Ai turned her head away: "No, I'm not a child anymore."

Ayumi came over with a camera and Genta, and when she saw Gaocheng and Xiaoai standing under the sunset, she pursed her lips and said, "Brother Kido, classmate Haibara, let's take another photo together."

"it's here?"

　It has been delayed for several days, and I will start writing the full moon chapter tomorrow, and the update time will be as early as possible in the future
