Conan: I'm just an ordinary novelist
Chapter 54 That is Uncle Maori's detective life
After receiving the report, Inspector Megure arrived at the scene and began to investigate with his men.
When he saw Kogoro Mori present, Megure Juzo showed an expression that showed as expected.
Kogoro Mouri seemed not to notice the speechless look on Inspector Megure's face. He happily walked up to him and shared with him some things he had discovered before.
When hearing Kuan Nian recounting the events that happened two years ago, Yun Xianhe hummed slightly.
Is it the same scene as today?
He thought that two years ago someone had let water into the room to drown someone, and then made a hole in the wall to let the person be washed directly down, thus creating a horrific scene as if he was attacked by an incredible beast.
Just hanging it up? What's so unspeakable about that?
"Brother Xianhe, have you found anything?"
"?"
Yun Xianhe came back to his senses and looked at Megure Jusan who was standing in front of him. He smiled and shook his head at him, pointing to his throat.
"Hmm? You want me to see the neck of the corpse? Is there anything strange about the wound?"
"..."
Conan noticed this and pulled the corner of his mouth, helping to explain:
"No, Officer Megure, Brother Xianhe is sick and can't speak."
"a ha ha ha…"
Realizing his misunderstanding, Megure Jusan smiled awkwardly.
He patted Yun Xianhe on the shoulder, comforted him and told him to have a good rest before continuing to search for clues.
The progress of the case investigation has been hindered.
Everyone was puzzled by this method, which was almost the same as two years ago and there was no clue found.
Conan, who found some suspicious points, walked to Yun Xianhe, put his hands in his pockets and watched the inspectors take the body away.
During this time, a lady in pink hurried over and cried very sadly. Inspector Megure said that she seemed to be the abbot's granddaughter.
"I remember that she was the one crying beside Master Zhongnian's body two years ago."
Inspector Megure said this as if lamenting the fickleness of fate.
Zhong Nian looked at the abbot's body with some sadness, and continued:
"Well, she used to come to this temple occasionally to relax. But she hasn't been here since that incident."
"That person is..."
Maori Kogoro pointed at the person standing behind Miss Kikuno, and Mu Nian took a look and replied:
"He is Miss Kikuno's husband. They just got married a few days ago. ... I always thought that Miss Kikuno would end up with Tadashi."
Maori Kogoro seemed surprised:
"With the deceased monk Zhongnian?"
"Yes, because the relationship between the two of them has always been very good."
Having said this, Mu Nian turned his head away as if he couldn't bear it.
Tun Nian behind him added:
"It seems that Miss Kikuno's marriage has dealt a heavy blow to Senior Brother Zhongnian. That's why he did such a stupid thing..."
"Could it be that the abbot is also because of this..."
Listening to several people gradually defining this case as suicide and running back to look for the suicide note, Yun Xianhe frowned slightly.
He turned his head to look at Miss Kikuno who was leaning against another person and crying, his heterochromatic eyes showed no emotion.
wrong.
If the scene had been the same two years ago, it would definitely not have been suicide.
Against the relationship? But you wouldn't kill the other person, would you?
And that lady, does she know how the person she loved died...
For a moment, Yun Xianhe inexplicably felt that the crying sound was a bit harsh for no reason.
"...or the strange sound of something being destroyed, or someone screaming..."
"No! I heard nothing, for it was a very quiet night last night."
"You didn't hear anything?"
"Ah."
The only unreasonable person has been found.
Yun Xianhe turned his head slightly to look at Xiunian who was still talking to Conan, and lowered his eyes slightly.
Replicate the technique two years later...revenge?
Conan stood there and looked at Xiu Nian who was called away by Tun Nian and the others, with a serious expression:
"Xianhe, is there any connection between these two cases?"
Yun Xianhe pondered for a moment and gestured out four words:
'You'll reap what you sow.'
If his inference is correct,
Judging from the abbot's abnormal attitude last night, the case two years ago must have been committed by him.
At the very least, you can be a witness or an insider.
"Is this so..."
Looking at the little detective who seemed a little lost, Yun Xianhe patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.
"You have to get used to the fact that there are always people in this world who have the answer but can't find the way."
And under the influence of the world's "emotional amplification", they are more likely to go to extremes.
Conan let out a long breath and forced himself to focus on the modus operandi of the case.
Yun Xianhe followed Conan slowly, witnessing him unraveling the entire case.
All the evidence was exactly consistent with his speculation.
Standing in the short grass, Yun Xianhe watched Conan, who had spotted the wooden fragments and was about to reach out to grab them, and he quickly knocked on the other's head.
"Ah, hiss——what's wrong, Xianhe?"
Yun Xianhe handed a clean handkerchief to Conan with an expressionless face.
The latter paused in rubbing his head and laughed awkwardly twice.
Preserve the evidence.
Although the fragments have been found, there are still a lot of questions that have not been figured out.
Conan frowned as he looked at the pieces of wooden board, trying to connect all the clues he had found together.
"Tape...why is there tape on this?"
The man hiding in the forest looked gloomily at the two people, one big and one small, standing in the bushes, with his hands hanging at his sides slightly clenched.
Yun Xianhe turned his head as if he sensed something, and happened to see the grass next to the tree move slightly.
…did you find it?
"Conan - Xianhe-kun -"
Yun Xianhe looked up and saw Xiaolan standing not far away calling for people, so he led Conan back.
"What are you doing here?"
"Brother Xianhe brought me here. He said we can find clues related to the case here, right?"
"Really? Xianhe?"
The speechless hero paused, nodded with dead eyes, and slightly exerted force on the hand pressing on the little detective's head.
You are very good at shirking responsibility.
Conan inexplicably understood what Yun Xianhe wanted to say, smiled obediently, and thanked the other party for his silent cooperation.
Conan frowned as he returned to the crime scene.
All the clues are there, but to prove that the method can be completed, the most crucial step is still needed.
Looking at the little detective who was thinking hard, Yun Xianhe turned his head and glanced at the sky outside.
If he finished it now, he could still go back and catch Mr. Guang's dinner.
Thinking of this, the brave man reached out and touched the little detective's shoulder, then lifted him up and faced him towards a wall.
Conan blinked blankly, and when he saw the cherry blossom stuck on the wall, an idea flashed in his mind.
He got it!
Yun Xianhe's voice is hoarse, so it is impossible to ask him to help solve the case.
So this glorious responsibility fell on our uncle Maori again.
Yun Xianhe, who was waiting upstairs to help with the technique, looked at Maori Kogoro who was staggering down after receiving an injection of anesthetic and subconsciously shrank his neck.
Uncle Maori's neck is indestructible.
The mystery show begins.
Yun Xianhe had just put on the tape he had borrowed from the inspector when he heard Inspector Megure say in the room:
"But there's still some distance between the skylight and the waterfall. It's impossible to bring the water into this room just right."
"Of course, Xianhe."
Several people present looked up at the small skylight above.
Yun Xianhe first peeked inside, waved to the few people to signal them to step back, and then he placed the wooden board on the skylight window.
"Wow!"
The sudden shout startled Yun Xianhe, and he quickly removed the board. When he leaned forward, he saw Officer Megure, who was speechless and soaked all over.
"..."
"..."
The two looked at each other in silence. Yun Xianhe opened his mouth and wanted to say sorry but found that he couldn't make a sound.
Conan, who was hiding behind Kogoro, coughed twice and changed the subject to continue talking about the technique.
After hearing the entire technique, even Megure Jusan found it unbelievable.
"So, who is the person who committed this crime?"
Yun Xianhe, who had just walked downstairs, handed the wooden window fragment that Conan had just mentioned to Megure Jusan, and then stood beside the sleeping Mouri Kogoro to block the small angle where Conan might be discovered.
"Master Xiu Nian, I remember you said that you were studying scriptures in your room until three in the morning last night, right?
In that case, you should have heard the sound.
Around 2 o'clock last night, one of us was startled by a Tengu mask in the toilet and screamed. "
The young detective's tone became stern.
"Who is that person? Well, please answer me."
Looking at the stunned Xiunian, Mu Nian was still a little bit unconvinced and called out to her softly:
"Xiu, Xiu Nian?"
"I, of course I heard it. It was Miss Maori's loud scream."
After coming back to her senses, Xiu Nian pointed at Mao Li Ran and gave her answer.
However, he was still making up a lie and did not notice the hesitant expressions of his senior brothers.
He scratched the back of his head with a shy expression:
"I was shocked. There's nothing I can do if Miss Maori is scared or frightened."
"Xiunian, how could you..."
It seemed that Tun Nian's voice was too unbelievable, and Xiunian was slightly stunned.
Conan, who had seen through everything, gave the answer in Kogoro's voice:
"Master Xiu Nian, it wasn't Xiao Lan who screamed at that time, but me. Well, it's normal that you didn't hear it, because you stayed in this room with rumbling water sounds all night."
"But what you just said cannot be used as evidence."
Inspector Megure asked the most crucial question.
Yun Xianhe sighed slightly and pointed to the pocket in his hand.
Conan, who was hiding behind Maori Kogoro, spoke:
"The evidence is in your hands, officer."
"Hmm? This window fragment?"
"Yes, that is the only evidence of the crime that the criminal forgot to recover."
Suddenly remembering something, Xiunian opened her mouth in horror, as if she wanted to say a few words to defend herself.
"Now I can bet my detective life that the evidence is definitely on the tape on that fragment, Master Xiu Nian, it is your fingerprint."
After hearing this, Yun Xianhe frowned and tilted his head, and gestured to Conan who was hiding behind him:
"You are now using Uncle Maori's detective life."
"..."
