"Absolutely impossible!"

The sudden childish voice startled Hattori Heiji. He turned his head and saw Edogawa Conan leaning against the door frame with his hands in his pockets, with a sour face and a lot of negative words in his mouth.

Conan Edogawa said the reason why he denied Hattori Heiji's guess: "I checked the rooms he had been to immediately after the incident. There were no signs of the steel wire being removed from the curtains, and there were no signs of steel wire being pulled or rubbed on the railings."

He became more and more confident as he spoke: "Among the three of them, the one who was in the room closest to the crime scene was Ray Curtis. But after pressing the switch, it would take at least 10 seconds to climb up the stairs and reach the crime scene."

Probably to make his words more convincing, Edogawa Conan stepped closer to Hattori Heiji and said, "Lei's left knee joint was injured in the past, so it is absolutely impossible for him to commit the crime within 3 seconds. As for Mike, he is undergoing rehabilitation because of a strained Achilles tendon. Rika's pace is originally slow."

He raised his head with a relaxed smile on his face: "So it is impossible for the three of them to commit the crime during that time."

However, Hattori Heiji was not convinced by Conan Edogawa's seemingly reasonable reasoning. Instead, he frowned and stared at Conan Edogawa with a serious face: "I say, Kudo, you are very strange today!"

Edogawa Conan was stunned: "Huh?"

Hattori Heiji leaned over and got close to Edogawa Conan, staring into his eyes. "Logically speaking, a qualified detective would definitely raise doubts from various angles about this guy with a vague alibi. You, Kudo Shinichi, are known as the 'Kanto Kudo' along with me, so how could you possibly investigate a case like this?"

Edogawa Conan's eyes unconsciously shifted away: "Really?"

He turned away from Hattori Heiji and said, "Well, even if they get to the crime scene, it will take another 5 seconds for the people in the room to come out and answer the door after hearing the knock. Anyway, it's impossible no matter how I think about it!"

Perhaps when people feel guilty or embarrassed, they can't help but do something else to divert their attention, so Edogawa Conan unconsciously groped and opened the cabinet door next to him.

Hattori Heiji's gaze followed the actions of Edogawa Conan. When Edogawa Conan himself didn't know what he had opened, Hattori Heiji noticed a foreign object that shouldn't be in the cabinet opened by Edogawa Conan.

"Hey! Kudo, what is that?"

"Huh?" Edogawa Conan turned his head and looked: "What's wrong? It's just a mop."

Hattori Heiji was helpless at this moment, and even wanted to laugh: "Will there be a mop in the hotel room?"

Edogawa Conan still pretended to be relaxed: "This is indeed not right."

As soon as the words fell, they both looked at the light switch by the door.

Edogawa Conan pursed his lips.

Hattori Heiji lowered his eyebrows slightly: "Kudo, this is possible now. The other two may not be able to commit the crime, but if he gets used to using that thing, he can control the lighting in the room from a distance."

Edogawa Conan gritted his teeth slightly, but still smiled and turned back to refute Hattori Heiji's words: "What are you talking about? He doesn't have such a thing on him, and the room also..."

Hattori Heiji couldn't stand it any longer, he interrupted Edogawa Conan's sophistry: "Listen to what you are saying! Such a small tool, it's not a problem to hide a few!"

Edogawa Conan was interrupted by Hattori Heiji, and finally showed his true colors, revealing the frustration and embarrassment he had been suppressing since the murder happened: "Stop talking nonsense! There is absolutely no such thing! I will definitely prove it! Just wait and see!"

After saying that, he threw the mop in his hand and ran out of the room.

Hattori Heiji was shocked by Edogawa Conan's sudden outburst and took a half step back. Looking at Edogawa Conan running away, Hattori Heiji sighed in his heart.

Kudo, don’t you often mention Sherlock Holmes’ famous quote to me?

Once all the impossibilities have been eliminated, whatever remains, no matter how unbelievable it may be, is the absolute fact.

Isn't this what you always follow? Kudo!

Conan Edogawa ran as fast as he could and when he reached the bathroom door, he just happened to meet Ray Curtis, Mike Nord and Rica Barre coming out of the bathroom.

Ray Katis put one arm on Rica Barre's shoulder, taking away half of the gravity, but he was still limping and crying out in pain from time to time, his facial expression looking a little hideous in pain.

Mike Nord asked Ray Curtis with concern: "Are you okay?"

Ray Katis stroked his right knee with one hand: "It's okay, but my old injury still hurts a lot."

Mike Nord couldn't help much and could only say, "Take care of yourself."

Ray Katis seemed to have recovered a little: "It's okay, just take some medicine."

Seeing this, Mike Nord joked: "You must take good care of yourself. If the steel fortress rusts, it will be worthless!"

Ray Curtis smiled and skipped the topic: "Let's go get something to drink."

Ever since he saw Ray Curtis reaching out to touch his right knee, Edogawa Conan has been standing there in a daze, his eyes wide open, with a look of disbelief.

It wasn't until the three of them turned around the corridor that Edogawa Conan came to his senses. He quickly ran into the bathroom where the three of them came out, pulled open the cabinet door under the sink, pulled out the trash can inside without any hesitation, and then pulled the trash inside into the bathroom and dumped it all on the ground.

There were mostly paper balls in the trash can, and there was no sound when they fell to the ground, only a crisp "ding-ling" sound fell into Edogawa Conan's ears.

Conan Edogawa's eyes immediately fell on the tiny metal tool that looked like a small screwdriver. He squatted down, unfolded the handkerchief he was carrying and picked up the metal tool.

This is……

At this time, Suzuki Sonoko's voice came from outside the door: "Speaking of which, it suddenly occurred to me that we heard this in a snack bar the day before yesterday? Something about bandages or clogs, or something like that."

Mao Lilan thought for a moment and said, "Now that you mention it, it seems that there is. We thought it was strange at the time, but later the food was so delicious that we forgot to ask."

Edogawa Conan listened to the conversation between the two and seemed to understand something. He lowered his head, trembling all over, with a bitter smile on his face.

I see! It turns out to be like this!

hateful! ! !

Toyama Kazuha became excited because of Suzuki Sonoko's words: "Could this be a clue? Should we go tell Heiji and the others?"

Si Xuanyu tilted his head slightly: "Sure, then why not let Conan pass on a message?"

Everyone was stunned. Where is Conan?

Edogawa Conan was also stunned, then he looked up and saw Hiroki Sawada standing in front of him.
