Conan: I'm just an ordinary novelist

Yun Xianhe, who had been lying down at home for the whole afternoon, received a call from Conan.

The other party told him the follow-up of the case involving Officer Sato, and explained that they would take action tonight when the other party thought he was free.

"By the way, Brother Xianhe, do you know about the arson case?"

Yun Xianhe, who happened to be lying on the sofa, reached out and took the newspaper on the coffee table after hearing his words.

After casually glancing at the title above, Yun Xianhe raised his eyebrows slightly and said:

"Do you want to deduce with me where he will commit his next crime?"

"Well, the guy Ayumi met yesterday must be the arsonist. He muttered something to himself about 'foreplay to the festival'. I think he will continue to commit crimes. We need to find him as soon as possible."

"Hmm - didn't Officer Takagi and the others go to arrest them?"

"The one we caught was a pickpocket."

"The information is wrong."

The man who stood up slowly pinched his dizzy forehead, and casually took out the past newspapers that Zhu Fu Jingguang had collected from the bookshelf beside him.

After briefly reading a few reports, Yun Xianhe made some assumptions.

"The next location... will probably be Shinagawa."

"Huh?! How did you deduce that?!"

"You can find a map and circle the locations of the previous times and you will understand."

"Wait a mininute!"

Conan hung up the phone in the phone booth, ran to a nearby store and bought a magazine with a map.

The reason why I didn't use the bracelet Xianhe gave me to make a call was because it was too conspicuous.

At least he couldn't use it in public.

The three little ones on the side watched Conan run into the restaurant and followed him in confusion.

When the big word "fire" appeared, the three little ones were stunned for a moment.

Mitsuhiko, who had the fastest reaction, had already guessed it, but Conan understood everything instantly.

After discovering this, Conan turned around and wanted to explain to Officer Sato beside him.

It turned out that the other party was answering the phone.

"You mean you solved it?"

"Ok!"

Officer Takagi on the other end of the phone seemed very happy.

However, because the other party was on a mission this afternoon, he did not know that Officer Sato had already identified the murderer and planned to start arresting him in the evening.

Sato was about to talk to Takagi about this when the call was suddenly hung up.

"Ok?"

Looking at the interface showing the call was hung up, Sato sighed helplessly.

He turned around and sat in the chair, sending a message to Officer Chiba to confirm the action for the evening while gathering his strength.

At the same time, on the other side, Takagi, who was hiding in a phone booth to make a phone call and was discovered by Officer Shiratori, avoided the other party's questioning with a few words and turned around and ran away.

Officer Shiratori, who stayed where he was, looked at Takagi's somewhat excited figure and felt that he was suspicious.

However, neither of them noticed that the man in the phone booth next door was peeping.

·

Conan, who witnessed the whole process, blinked his eyes. Seeing that the other party was still busy, he planned to talk to Yun Xianhe first.

Seeing Conan running off to make a phone call again, the three little ones sat boredly at the dining table on the street arranged by Officer Sato.

At present, only Yuantai is eating very happily.

Ayumi, who accidentally saw a figure flashing outside the window, froze and her little face turned pale with fright.

"What's wrong with you, Ayumi?"

Mitsuhiko, who was standing by, was the first to notice something was wrong with his friend.

He reached out and grabbed Ayumi's hand, trying to calm her down.

Ayumi pointed at the man in the windbreaker who was about to walk away, her voice trembling:

"That's him! That bad guy I saw is him!"

"Huh?!" x2

The three kids looked at each other briefly, and then, while Officer Sato was not paying attention, they quietly left the restaurant.

·

the other side.

After running for a distance and making sure that Shiratori would not see him, Takagi took out his cell phone and called Sato.

"Mosimoxi?"

"Officer Takagi, why did you suddenly hang up the phone just now?"

"Ah, sorry, I actually wanted to tell you that I understand everything! About the message your father left before his death, and what 'Chou Si Lang' means..."

"Well... Officer Takagi, actually when I just left at noon today, that Xianhe brother already told me all the answers."

Gao Mu was stunned when he heard this.

He could no longer hear what Sato said afterwards. He only knew that Yun Xianhe solved the puzzle before him.

So, he can't talk to Officer Sato.

"Officer Takagi?"

"Yes!"

The shout from the other end of the phone successfully brought Takagi back to his senses.

Hearing the other party's energetic voice, Takagi smiled.

Well, it doesn’t seem to matter who solves it, as long as Officer Sato is in high spirits.

"Haha, Xianzaku is really amazing. Many of Inspector Megure's cases were solved with the help of him and Detective Maori. Then I, uh!"

boom!

The phone fell to the ground, and there was a slight electric sound in the conversation.

Sato took the phone away for a moment and looked at it, then tentatively called out:

"Officer Takagi? Takagi! What's wrong with you? Hear a reply!!"

In the dark night, the murderer threw away the stone he had used to commit the crime, hung up the phone with a smile, and then carried the unfortunate guy away who was alone on the street late at night.

·

"Okay, I understand. Go home early at night, otherwise Xiaolan will worry about you."

"Hai Hai..."

After finishing his phone call with Yun Xianhe, Conan sighed with his half-moon eyes.

I don’t know why, but I feel like most of the people around me are trying to become housewives recently.

"Mitsuhiko, you guys..."

Conan, who had just returned to the restaurant, saw Sato and Chiba at a glance, but the three children who were supposed to be sitting by the bed waiting for them were gone!

Even the dining table was cleared!

"What about people?!"

He asked why it was so quiet! Did the three of them sneak away? Or were they killed by the murderer?

"Report the place and time you last saw him to the headquarters' centralized command room immediately! I can confirm that Officer Takagi has been attacked! And it was when I was on the phone with him! I think the other party is very likely to have set the fire."

"Officer Sato! Have you seen Ayumi and the others?"

Sato, who was interrupted, looked back at the dining table. A new guest had just sat down and was even stunned for a moment because of her gaze.

"What, those kids are missing too?!"

A kind waiter nearby gave a message:

"Are you talking about those three kids? I just saw them running out to chase someone."

"Could it be possible that they saw the arsonist?!"

When Conan thought of this possibility, he felt a chill down his spine. He quickly took out his detective badge from his pocket and sent a message to the three little guys.

Sato was stunned when he heard Conan's guess:

"So, who attacked Officer Takagi?"

The two cases are intertwined and the situation is confusing.

Sato and Conan split up into two groups and successfully captured the criminals at around midnight.

When Sato learned from Shikano that the place where Takagi was knocked unconscious was exactly where the arsonist had committed the crime, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

"So, in order to protect the remains of Officer Sato's father, Officer Takagi came out with the iron window?"

Sitting on the carpet, Yun Xianhe was bored and placed the white piece on the chessboard, then picked up the black piece.

Conan on the opposite side was reading with great relish the manuscript of a detective novel that Yun Xianhe had written some time ago.

There are already five characters who have appeared in the show, and there is a big dispute. Let him figure out who will take action first.

"Well, when Officer Sato arrived, he thought the man had died in the line of duty and burst into tears."

"Wow, are Officer Takagi and Officer Sato a couple?"

"I'm not sure. Maybe they like each other? But no one has said it out loud."

"Like you and Xiaolan?"

“…Hey, hey.”

"Humph--"

The black piece landed and the white piece was surrounded, but the situation reversed again in the next second.

Conan glanced at the chessboard that was completely occupied with no place to place pieces, and said with half-moon eyes:

"You can't defeat yourself?"

“It’s just that the place isn’t big enough.”

Yun Xianhe casually threw the remaining chess pieces into the box and took the unfinished manuscript from Conan:

"Wait until I finish writing before you read it."

"Hehe, I already know who the murderer is!"

"Oh, I haven't even finished writing the entire case, and you figured it out?"

The hero's tone was teasing.

The little detective, who had only read the beginning of a case, scratched his head embarrassedly, his eyes wandering:

"My dad said he's already writing it."

"Ah."

I hope so, otherwise he will have to find an opportunity to ask more people to help him to urge the manuscript to be submitted.
