Conan: Tennis Boys' Scripted Murder

The next morning, the alarm clock rang at five o'clock. Kogoro Mouri crawled darkly on the bed. Getting up at this time was too much torture for him, a man who liked to stay up late.

Mouri Ran and Edogawa Conan also stayed in bed for a while before getting up to brush their teeth and wash their faces.

Only Mori Jusaburo got up and washed as soon as the alarm rang. He used to get up at this time to do morning training, but now he was staying at the Mori Detective Agency, so he needed to change.

The family hurriedly packed themselves up, rushed out of the house, and headed for Haneda Airport.

Maori Kogoro, who just caught up with the boarding, panted, "Huhu, I finally made it! I'm so tired."

Mao Lilan was sweating from the intense running. "Dad, you said that if you hadn't been staying in bed, time wouldn't be so tight!"

"Okay, we're already on the plane, let's take a good rest."

Conan had no way to interrupt the complaints of the Mori father and daughter, but Mori Jusaburo could.

When Mao Lilan put her bag on the overhead storage rack, the tennis balls she carried with her accidentally fell out of the bag.

Fortunately, several people nearby enthusiastically helped her catch the tennis ball, which prevented further panic.

"Thank you, thank you everyone."

Mao Lilan stuffed the tennis ball in her hand back into the bucket and turned back to her seat.

"Really? What did you bring a tennis ball for?"

"Ah, someone in my class heard that I was going to meet Nose, and asked me to get a few autographs from him. I don't have any special autograph paper, and the baseball at home was dirty because my dad got it dirty, so I had to bring out the tennis ball that Sonoko gave me."

"I remember that Nose was a baseball player, right?"

Hisaburo Mori has a good memory. He doesn't understand why Ran Mori chose tennis instead of baseball since both sports are ball sports but are ultimately two different sports.

"Then I'll wait until I get to Okinawa and go to a convenience store to see if they have autograph paper for sale."

So as soon as they got off the plane, Mao Lilan pulled Conan and ran all the way. She wanted to find what she needed as soon as possible and not waste time.

The two Mori brothers were left alone to face Mr. Teranishi who was sent by Nichimi TV to pick them up.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Teranishi, but I brought three family members with me. One of them is my daughter, and the other is a kid who lives in my house.

This is my cousin, Mori Jusaburo. Yesterday he helped the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department solve a murder case. Can we have him join the conversation? I think he can play a role in this show. "

Mr. Teranishi's eyes lit up when he heard about Mori Juzaburo's deeds. "Of course, Mr. Juzaburo is Mr. Mori's younger brother. Your family's genes are passed down through the same lineage. Mr. Juzaburo has already proven his ability. I think the producers will be even happier to know that he has joined."

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Teranishi."

Maori Kogoro felt a little embarrassed when he thought about the bet he made with his cousin. "Mr. Teranishi, are we going to meet Nose directly?"

Teranishi shook his head. "No, another reporter who is participating in the recording, Motoyama, hasn't arrived yet. We will go together later. He is coming from Miyazaki. There is only one flight at 8:15 these two days, and he won't arrive in Okinawa until 9:50. And Nose is still jogging at this time. We won't be able to see him even if we go now."

Because Motoyama Shoji had not arrived yet, the Mori family and Mr. Teranishi were waiting for him in the hall.

After a while, Masaharu Motoyama finally walked into the hall and joined them.

At this time, Conan did not stand with Mori Jusaburo and the others. He asked the security guard where the autograph paper was sold.

However, when everyone was about to leave, Motoyama Masaharu suddenly turned to look at Conan and said, "Little brother, we are leaving. Hurry up and follow us, or you will get lost."

It was this sentence that made Conan fall into deep thought, "Why did he know that I was with Uncle Maori and the others? Since he walked into the hall, I haven't talked to Ran and the others, and the distance between us is not that close. How did he know?"

Of course this thought flashed through his mind, and he trotted forward, sat on Mao Lilan's lap, and took Mr. Teranishi's car to the hotel where Mr. Nose was.

As soon as their car turned into the side road, they saw what appeared to be a person lying on the ground.

Mr. Teranishi stopped his car next to the man, and Motoyama Masaharu said to the "man", "Uncle, sleeping on the side of the road will catch a cold."

Conan and Kogoro Mouri's detective radars were activated, and the two got out of the car to check on "this person".

When they turned the man over, they heard Motoyama Masaharu say in the car, "The person lying there is Nose, Teranishi, please call an ambulance and the police."

This "call to the police" aroused Conan's suspicion again. Why was Masaharu Motoyama so sure that Mr. Nose had passed away and it was a homicide case?

Not long after, local police in Okinawa arrived at the scene. As soon as they saw Kogoro Mori's appearance, they felt that he looked familiar.

"Are you...Mr. Maori?"

Maori Kogoro was very proud when he was recognized, "Yes, I am the famous detective Maori Kogoro. I didn't expect you to recognize me."

"Haha, I'm very impressed by people who can eat so much."

The thing the police officer mentioned was the previous eating contest between Kogoro Mori and Heiji Hattori.

After the joke, the police officers calmed down their relaxed mood and stared at the deceased with heavy faces.

At this time, a young police officer ran over to Kogoro Mouri and his friends with a flight schedule and a pile of tennis balls.

"Officer, we found these two items during the search. I don't know if they were left by the deceased or the murderer."

Mao Lilan raised her hand weakly, "I'm sorry, these two things are mine. They might have fallen out when I was looking for my digital camera just now."

At this moment, everyone's attention is on those two things.

The murderer in this case, Masaharu Motoyama, saw the tennis balls and remembered what happened on the plane before. He thought that these were the only loopholes he had left, so he prepared to find an opportunity to get rid of them all.

The other person who was looking at the tennis ball was Maori Hisaburo. He remembered the actions of the people who helped Maori Ran pick up the tennis ball on the plane. The action of the person next to her catching the ball was related to baseball, while the actions of the others were relatively ordinary.

Kogoro Mori acts as the narrator, retelling the purpose of their coming here and how they discovered Norimitsu.

Suddenly, Conan said with admiration: "Mr. Motoyama is also a great detective!"

Kogoro Mori and the others were very curious about why Ke said that.

“Because it just rained, the rain washed away all the blood on Nose’s body, and he was out for a run, most people would think he died of a heart attack.

It would not be linked to the murder case, but Mr. Motoyama asked Mr. Teranishi to call the police right from the beginning. "
