Science solves cases? No, I am an immortal cultivator!

After seeing the bloodstains on the handle of the murder weapon, Kitagawa Taki raised the corners of his mouth slightly. It was just as he had guessed.

Kitagawa Taki walked out the door and found Shimokasa Honami. "Ms. Honami, could you help me find a dagger with a small hole on the end?"

Shimokasa Honami was slightly stunned, then immediately agreed.

After a while, Shimokasa Honami came back with a dagger.

Officer Megure asked curiously, "Brother Kitagawa, what is this?"

Kitagawa Taki said: "I know Aikawa Touya's method, Inspector, you can go to the next room and I will show you."

Inspector Megure nodded blankly. How come he didn't understand anything?

After they arrived at the next room, Kitagawa Taki first put the dagger onto the elastic band, and then used the elastic band to put on the mask.

He did not honestly put on all 200 masks, but only put on dozens of them to verify whether it was possible.

After putting on the masks, Kitagawa Taki retracted the elastic band and stacked the masks one by one.

The dagger stood up due to the elastic band and pressed against the mouth of the first mask.

Inspector Megure suddenly realized: "No wonder only that mask has so much blood on it, while some masks only have blood on the mouth."

"But is this enough distance?" Kogoro Mouri estimated the distance between the dagger and the bed and felt that even if all two hundred masks were put on, it would not be able to reach the bed.

"This is an elastic band. Just push it with something and the dagger will extend."

As he spoke, Kitagawa Taki demonstrated it.

"Finally, just cut the elastic holding the mask and dagger."

Kitagawa Taki cut the elastic band with a knife, and the mask fell to the ground with a clatter.

The people in the next room widened their eyes instantly. This almost perfectly replicated the crime scene.

"As expected of Mr. Kitagawa! So amazing!"

Takagi Wataru was a little excited. He had only heard about Kitagawa Taki from Inspector Megure before, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, he found that his reputation was indeed well-deserved.

"Brother Gao Mu, I have to trouble you to collect these masks again."

Inspector Megure smiled and patted Takagi Wataru's shoulder.

Takagi Wataru was busy packing up his mask, and Kitagawa Taki also came to the next room to inquire about the news with Inspector Megure.

Beichuan Taki casually asked, "Inspector, is there any progress in the case of the Beihu City Hotel last time?"

Officer Megure's expression froze, and he shook his head, "No."

"We performed an autopsy on Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi and found an unknown toxin in his system."

"That's it."

I don’t know if it’s because the police’s detection level is not good enough, but Kitagawa Taki is relieved anyway, as long as they can’t find anything.

……

The case has been basically solved, but the mask as evidence needs to be taken away by the police for the time being.

Takagi Shigeru divided the two hundred masks into several stacks and placed them aside, while Kitagawa Taki took advantage of everyone's inattention and simply waved his hand to put all the masks into the space on his bracelet.

When Takagi Wataru looked back, the mask was gone.

"Inspector, the mask... has disappeared!"

Takagi Shigeru swallowed and spoke hesitantly.

When Inspector Megure was about to withdraw his team, he looked back and saw that as Takagi Wataru had said, so many masks had disappeared.

"This……"

The strange phenomenon makes people feel cold.

Thinking of the legend of the cursed mask, everyone present felt a little creepy.

Maori Kogoro murmured: "Could it be that Aichuan Fuuya was killed by the mask?"

"Dad!" Xiaolan was a little scared.

Koizumi Hongzi secretly glanced at Kitagawa Taki. She didn't know what means Kitagawa Taki used to make his mask disappear in front of everyone.

Kitagawa Taki has already taken action, so she has to express her opinion.

Koizumi Hongzi found the two twin sisters.

Because Sufang Hongzi passed away, the two sisters could no longer stay in this villa.

So it didn't take much effort for Koizumi Hongzi to "coax" the two of them to her villa.

As for the whereabouts of the mask, the police searched the entire villa but did not find any trace of the mask, so they had to let the case go.

……

Rice Flower Hospital.

Conan couldn't stay in the hospital any longer and strongly demanded to be discharged.

"Is everything really alright, Shinichi?"

Yukiko Fujimine was still a little worried, after all, it was a gunshot wound.

"It's really okay, Mom."

Conan couldn't remember how long he had been trying to persuade her.

He had had enough of the smell of this hospital these days.

"Okay then." Fujimine Yukiko instructed, "Shinichi, now that you're discharged from the hospital, I can't take care of you like this anymore. You have to take care of yourself."

She knew that Conan would definitely go straight back to the Mouri Detective Agency after being discharged from the hospital.

"I know, I'm not a child anymore."

Fujimine Yukiko covered her mouth and laughed: "But aren't you just a child now?"

"I……"

Conan was speechless. How could they still have a pleasant chat? It was indeed his mother who exposed his scars like this.

At this time, Conan's cell phone rang.

"Dad?"

Conan answered the phone.

Kudo Yusaku got straight to the point: "Shinichi, I've made some progress in the investigation you asked me to investigate about Kitagawa Taki's study abroad."

"What do you mean?" Conan sat up with a start.

"It should be no problem." Kudo Yusaku pondered for a moment and continued, "Kitagawa Taki's life as a student in New York was very simple. He basically went from one place to another: working and going to school."

Conan was silent for a moment, then said, "I understand."

Kudo Yusaku changed the subject, "But there might be something wrong. You were also in New York during that time."

"Hmm?" Conan began to recall what happened during his time in New York.

"The Silver-haired Killer, do you remember him? He once fled to the apartment that Kitagawa Taki rented when he was being pursued by the FBI."

The Silver-haired Killer, also known as the Highway Devil, Conan certainly remembers that during that period, the matter of the Silver-haired Killer was a very hot topic.

"But this Silver-haired Killer wasn't the real Silver-haired Killer. The police later found his body somewhere else. Based on the estimated time of death, he died long before the Silver-haired Killer appeared."

Conan's eyes narrowed, "That silver-haired killer is someone impersonating him."

"Dad, do you suspect that someone from the Black Organization is impersonating the Silver-haired Killer?" Conan asked.

Kudo Yusaku said: "Well, because I heard that there is a person called 'Thousand Faces Witch' in that organization, who is said to be able to disguise herself as anyone."

Conan said in a deep voice: "So, it is very likely that Kitagawa Taki had some contact with the Black Organization at that time."

Kudo Yusaku reminded: "Shinichi, these are just our guesses, don't act rashly."

"Don't worry, Dad, I know."
