Detective Conan: Knifeman? I'm a good citizen of Beihua

Conan raised his head and stared at the building in front of him without blinking, his expression serious and earnest.

Then, a figure stood in front of Conan.

Conan looked away and looked at the white-haired young man in front of him with some surprise: "Mr. Shirakawa?"

"How's it going, Conan? Any ideas?"

Conan: "Uh... I guess so."

Baichuan Qiu smiled, her eyes curved: "Oh? Really? As expected of a high school student..."

Conan suddenly interrupted Shirakawa Qiu and looked around nervously: "Mr. Shirakawa, what are you talking about!"

Don't deliberately expose his true identity when he is busy!

Baichuan Qiu raised his hand to apologize: "Sorry, sorry, I will speak softly next time."

Conan: "..."Thank you, it's not much better.

"Mr. Shirakawa, do you have any idea?"

"Me? I don't know."

What does this have to do with him?

It's just...

Baichuan Qiu raised his head, rubbed his chin meaningfully, and sighed softly: "Ah~ What a failure~"

Failed performance~

Conan raised his head and looked at Shirakawa Qiu with resentment: "Mr. Shirakawa clearly has an idea, right?"

"Maybe, but who can be sure until the truth comes out?" Bai Chuanqiu gave a vague answer, then seemed to remember something and raised a finger curiously, "Actually, if possible, you can also try to anesthetize me once."

"I don't mind being a tool in this case~"

Conan: "Eh?"

"To be honest, I'm still a little curious about the effect of this."

Baichuan Qiu held his chin with his hand, looking serious.

As a "loyal fan" of Gin, the system also paid special attention to Gin's movements when stealing the script next door. So Shirakawa knew that once when Conan confronted Gin, he shot Gin with an anesthetic needle and almost knocked him down.

If Gin had not decisively shot himself, Conan would have become famous in one battle - the first person who could knock Gin down directly!

As expected of you, Conan!

So what kind of anesthetic is it?

Baichuan Qiu admitted that he was eager to try.

Facing Mr. Shirakawa's serious expression, Conan couldn't help but shed a cold sweat and quietly took a step back: "Mr. Shirakawa, you are joking, right?"

Bai Chuanqiu looked at the child: "Do I look like I'm joking?"

Trying to see if the medicine works? What if I get shot later...

A flash of scarlet flashed in Baichuan Qiu's eyes, as if some dangerous nerve was stimulated and began to become active. Even his usual gentle smile became mysterious and dark under the sharp edge of the shark's teeth.

Conan covered his watch with his hands. The danger alarm kept flashing above his head. He showed an embarrassed smile on his face and trotted to the other side: "Ah, there seems to be something strange here. I'll go and take a look. Maybe it's a clue--"

Mr. Shirakawa is emitting that strange aura again. It's so scary. I'd better run away first...

Baichuan Qiu stood up and watched Conan run to the other side. He shrugged and sighed helplessly: "Tsk, how can a child be so opinionated?"

Even if you prick him, he won't get angry.

The system whispered, "But right now, the host really looks like the big bad wolf who kidnapped Little Red Riding Hood."

Shirakawa Akane: "...Read less fairy tales."

Twenty minutes passed in the on-site investigation. Conan had been observing the situation downstairs. Finally, his eyes locked on a wall somewhere in the building and he found an important clue to the case.

Conan, who got the final clue, looked at Shirakawa Akane, then looked at Mouri Kogoro over there, and still pointed his watch at Mouri Kogoro.

"For this case, I think we should thoroughly investigate the workers at the scene... Ouch—"

Kogoro Mouri was still talking to Juzo Megure, but suddenly he stood up straight and stumbled to sit on the steps beside him.

Megure Jusan's eyes lit up, "Eh? Is it coming?"

finally come!

The sleeping Kogoro Mouri!

Everyone immediately stopped moving and looked at the "sleeping Kogoro Mouri" with anticipation.

Bai Chuanqiu held his forehead.

Very good, the police are now used to such strange appearances.

hehe--

"Actually, there's no need to investigate. I think it's a complete waste of time because I already know who the murderer is."

Kogoro Mouri lowered his head and spoke in a firm and steady voice.

"Eh? But you just asked me to investigate the workers on the construction site, Maori..."

"Uh... ahem, that's not important anymore, Officer Megure, because the murderer isn't a worker at the scene, but one of the people we came with today!"

Megure Jusan: "What?"

Everyone turned their heads and their eyes fell on the people behind them.

There are quite a few suspects today, including Yasumasa Hori, Yoko Nakata, the security manager, the engineering manager, the materials manager... and Shirakawa Akira, who is not sure if he can be considered a suspect.

The engineering supervisor is a tall, somewhat thin man who is mainly responsible for construction technology and quality control.

The safety supervisor is a rare woman who is responsible for safety management on the construction site.

The materials manager is a short, fat man with a constant smile on his face. He is mainly responsible for the procurement, allocation and management of materials and equipment.

If we talk about the motive for the murder, these three supervisors are the most likely ones. After all, Chuan Junhangping is the general manager, and there are bound to be some frictions in everyone's daily work, and there will definitely be many conflicts in this back and forth.

Those disputes at work could have become the motive for today's murder.

On the contrary, Yasumasa Hori, Yoko Nakata, and Akira Shirakawa have the least relationship with Funashin Kohei, and there is basically no reason to kill Funashin Kohei.

So Megure Jusan's attention focused on these three supervisors.

"Ahem, as for the murderer, please keep it a secret for now. I'd like to ask Inspector Megure to find the murder weapon first."

Megure Jusan was stunned for a moment, then said, "Where is the murder weapon?"

They had searched many places, even looking through the bricks piled up all over the construction site, but they couldn't find any bricks that looked like the murder weapon.

"It's naturally very difficult for the police to find the murder weapon because the murderer had built it into the wall and it became part of the wall. No one would be able to find it that way."

"what?"

Megure Juzo and the other police officers present were dumbfounded.

"I just saw a truckload of unused cement mortar not far from here. I think the murderer must have laid the brick nearby. Inspector Megure, please take someone to search the inner wall of the first floor of this building."

Compared with the frame structure of the upper floor, a part of the wall on the first floor has been built, and the top is still made of bricks, so the murderer can easily hide the murder weapon inside.

The initial setting time of cement mortar is about 1-3 hours. It hasn't been that long now. As long as the police conduct a careful inspection, they will be able to find the murder weapon quickly.

Sure enough, after a while, Takagi Wataru brought bricks covered with cement: "Found it!"
