The famous criminal in the world of Conan

"Last night," Maori Kogoro recalled, "actually we didn't do anything last night. We just slept in the side room. But there was one thing......"

"What?" Bai Masong asked.

Maori Kogoro scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Last night, Xiaolan pretended to be a ghost and scared us. Our screams caused several masters to not sleep well."

"I didn't mean it." Xiaolan also blushed and stuck out her tongue.

"Apart from this, is there nothing else?" Bai Masong asked.

"No more." said Kogoro Mori.

Baimasong nodded and turned to find the four monks from Shanni Temple.

Watching Bai Masong leave after asking questions, Conan thought to himself.

Inspector Hakuba should still be thinking of using his "criminal psychology" to solve the case, so as long as I take the lead and use his crime-solving techniques first, I can solve the case before him!

Thinking about it, Conan began to apply the formula.

First, we need to rule out the possibility of the murderer committing the crime while on the run and look for the murderer inside the temple. Then, we need to find several possible suspects.

Well, we have successfully identified the four monks of Shanni Temple. Then, we need to find the least suspicious person among the four. He is most likely the most suspicious!

The least suspicious, the least suspicious......

Damn, this case doesn't look like a murder! These four people don't seem to be able to do it! There is no such thing as the least suspicious person!

Conan analyzed it over and over again, but found that he could not see anything at all.

Damn it, Inspector Hakuba lied!

..............................

On the other side, Bai Masong began to interrogate the four monks.

The first person to discover the body was Monk Kuan Nian.

"Master Kuannian, what did you do last night? Did you hear any noise?" Bai Masong asked.

"I was sleeping in my room last night. I heard Detective Maori's scream in the middle of the night, so I went out to check. Then I went back to sleep." Kuan Nian said.

"Well," Bai Masong wrote it down and continued to ask, "It was you who found the host's body this morning, right?"

"Yes." Kuan Nian replied.

"The body was hung on the beam. Normally, ordinary people would not look up there. How come you were able to find the host's body first?"

"This, this is because......" Kuan Nian said hurriedly.

"This is because Senior Brother Zhongnian also died in that place two years ago, and that was the body we found at that time. It is natural for Kuannian to think this way." Mu Nian, who was listening at the side, rushed to answer.

"Well, that makes sense." Bai Masong agreed.

Then he continued to ask the monk Mu Nian and the monk Tun Nian the same question.

Mu Nian and Tun Nian also gave similar answers, except they said they didn't go out to check.

"By the way, where is Master Xiu Nian?" Bai Masong discovered that one person was missing.

"Xiu Nian seems to have gone out. We don't know where she went, and she didn't say where she was going." Kuan Nian said.

Hmm? Bai Masong narrowed his eyes. Running around at this time was not something a normal person should do.

At this time, Sato Miwako had also finished inspecting the scene and came to report to Bai Masong.

"Inspector Hakuba, no fingerprints were found on the ropes and the axe at the scene, including on the clothes of the chief priest Tennaga. Just like what Officer Megure said about the case two years ago, the scene was very clean and we found nothing."

Miwako Sato was a little depressed.

Bai Masong nodded, he had expected such a result.

Sato Miwako said with a headache: "This case is not suitable for the techniques you taught me, Inspector Hakuba."

"If it doesn't fit, don't use it," Bai Masong said calmly, "It's better to have no books than to believe in them blindly. Skills are always skills, and strength is the foundation."

"I may have forgotten to mention that these techniques are nothing more than some tips I have summed up. They may be useful, but they cannot be applied to all cases."

"You can use it appropriately, but in the end, we still have to speak based on the existing evidence. Don't be too superstitious, otherwise it will easily lead to wrongful convictions."

In fact, this is just like when we were in school, there would always be sayings like "three long and one short, choose the shortest" or "three short and one long, choose the longest". It may be a little useful, but it cannot be applied to all questions.

And when you know the answer to every question, you won’t need it.

"Then, Inspector Hakuba, can you teach me the real hard-core reasoning?" Sato Miwako hurriedly asked.

But as soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it.

Because Bai Masong was looking at her as if she were an idiot, as if to say, if I could teach you, I would have taught you a long time ago, this is just how your brain is.

"Hehe, hehe." Sato Miwako lowered her head embarrassedly.

I feel a little ashamed of my own stupidity.

Bai Masong ignored her thoughts and said, "Come on, accompany me to the foot of the mountain."

"Huh? Go, what for?" Sato Miwako asked subconsciously.

What else can you do?

Bai Ma looked at her speechlessly and said coldly: "Find evidence!"

"Oh oh oh..."

....................................

Shanni Temple is built halfway up a mountain. At the foot of the mountain is a large grassland, and next to the grassland is a lush forest.

"Inspector Hakuba, do you already know the method of committing the crime?" asked Miwako Sato curiously.

"Yeah." Bai Masong said.

"Huh? So amazing?" Sato Miwako looked in awe, and then curiously asked, "Tell me quickly, tell me quickly, how did you do it?"

Miwako Sato didn't realize that when she was talking to Bai Masong, she had gradually begun to show the appearance of a little girl, and her tone was a little coquettish, seeming very close.

Of course, Bai Masong did not pay attention to these details. In response to Sato Miwako's question, he simply said, "Let's find clues first, and we'll talk about the modus operandi later."

"Oh, okay." Sato Miwako agreed, "Then what clues should we find?"

"It's a piece of wooden board with tape on it," said Bai Masong.

After saying that, the two separated on the grass and searched on their own.

"Inspector Baiba, we found it!"

Miwako Sato shouted excitedly.

Bai Masong heard the sound and looked over, only to see Sato Miwako running towards him holding a piece of broken wood with tape on it.

"Inspector Hakuba, take a look, is this it?" Sato Miwako said with a smile on her face, holding up the wooden board as if to ask for credit.

"Yes, it's him." Bai Masong looked carefully and nodded.

"Let's go, let's go back." Bai Masong said lightly.

"Oh." Miwako's smile gradually calmed down.

"Well done. Keep working hard in the future." Bai Masong added a compliment.

"Hehe, it's okay." Her smile returned.
