Conan and Gin are both my brothers, what's wrong with meeting them once?

Ryuji Takeda never expected that Robert would go to pay respects to Misa so soon.

"Are you really going this late?"

Robert nodded: "The moonlight should be shining right into the valley along the way right now, so it's not dark and there won't be any danger."

Kazuha's eyes lit up: "Will the moonlight shine into the valley? Can I go with you?"

"of course."

"What about Ran?" Kazuha asked with a smile. "Would you like to come along?"

Ran nodded in agreement, and then Conan called out from the side, "Ran-neechan!"

"What? Conan, are you going too?"

Conan pulled out an earring phone made by Agasa from his pocket: "Wear this, so you can contact me in time if anything happens."

Kazuha smiled and said to Ran, "Although I'm not very familiar with this little brother, I always feel like he's very jealous of you."

Xiaolan blushed and quickly covered her face by putting on her earrings.

Conan, taking the opportunity to drink soup, muttered under his breath, "Please, I'm not jealous at all..."

Kudo Kazuma raised his hand and covered his head: "This is the mutual appreciation between the jealous king of Kansai and the jealous king of Kanto. From some perspectives, Kazuha understands you."

After all, Kazuha was the one who matured earlier and was prone to jealousy, much like Shinichi Kudo.

Conan pursed his lips, tacitly agreeing.

After seeing Robert, Ran, and Kazuha off, Yoko Takeda was about to take her two daughters to take a bath, and asked Ryuji Takeda to make sure to add firewood and boil water.

Yuzo Takeda, who had drunk quite a bit, staggered away.

The three returned to the room where they had eaten. Kogoro Mori had also drunk too much and was fast asleep on the tatami mat, while the maids of the Takeda family were cleaning up the leftover food on the table.

The three of them helped tidy up, and then asked the maid to find a blanket for Kogoro Mouri to cover him with.

Once only the three of them and a dazed Kogoro Mouri remained in the room, Conan frowned slightly and said, "Something's not right about this house."

Heiji Hattori: "I think so too..."

"Forget about riddles," Kudo Kazuma interrupted their pretentious act. "Can't you just say what you think or discover?"

Heiji Hattori was clearly taken aback for a moment, but Conan was more used to Kazuma Kudo's behavior and said directly, "Misa, Sae, and Emi, the names of these three sisters seem to form a cycle, more like names that only real sisters would have."

Hattori Heiji pointed to the table they had used for their meal earlier: "The number of fish is wrong."

“We met Robert, who was lost, on the road. It is said that the three of us—me, Ye, and Robert—arrived suddenly, but we were only two fish short of the amount we bought per person. This shows that the person who bought the fish knew that Robert would come, which does not match Robert’s claim that he was lost.”

After he finished speaking, he looked at Kazuma Kudo.

Kazuma Kudo shrugged: "Robert hasn't been here for three years. He could get lost in this house. How did he know where Miss Misa's grave is?"

"You know, he only learned of Miss Misa's death after arriving here, and during that time he never asked where Miss Misa's grave was, he just drove straight there. Considering Hattori's discovery, perhaps..."

Conan and Heiji Hattori asked in unison, "Is there something wrong with Robert?"

Does that mean that Ran and Kazuha, who went out with him, might be in danger?

Conan immediately called Ran.

"They're still on their way, but the weather outside looks bad, it seems to be raining over there, so Robert is going to bring them back." Conan reassured Heiji Hattori, "I specifically told Ran to take good care of herself and Kazuha."

Hattori Heiji asked in confusion, "If this isn't even a hint, how will she understand it?"

Conan nodded confidently: "Ran might not have understood before, but now she can understand what I mean."

The three were quietly waiting in the room for Ran and Kazuha to return when they suddenly heard Takeda Yuzo shouting something outside.

It turned out that after drinking, he went to help Shinichi Takeda make puppets, but he couldn't find Shinichi Takeda anywhere and searched everywhere without success.

"Where's the warehouse?"

"I've looked, but it's not there."

"What about the second floor of the warehouse?"

"We couldn't find it either..."

“That’s strange. Why is the window on the second floor of the warehouse open?” Ryuji Takeda frowned. “Someone died there, and everyone avoids that area. No one should be opening the window…”

When the group arrived at the warehouse, after Takeda Ryuji turned on the lights, they found nothing unusual on the first floor. They then went up to the second floor, only to find that the door to the second floor was locked from the inside.

Kudo Kazuma intended to imitate Ran and kick down the door, but Takeda Yuzo went to get an axe. Hattori took the axe and started hacking at the lock on the wooden door...

Kudo Kazuma was speechless—with that kind of speed, why not go find the key? Just because he's in the warehouse, does that make finding an axe easier?

When the door opened, the scene inside startled everyone.

In the dimly lit warehouse, strings used to control the puppets hung from the ceiling, forming a spiderweb-like web. Shinichi Takeda was suspended dead within this web, resembling prey entangled in a spider's web…

Judging from the fact that the body was already cold, Shinichi Takeda had been dead for at least an hour.

In other words, he died not long after leaving the banquet.

With Ran not around, Kudo Kazuma decided to go out and call the police himself.

Then the police told him some news—because of the heavy rain, a landslide on the mountain blocked the road, and they probably wouldn't be able to arrive until the next day. Anyway, since Detective Kogoro Mouri was there, he could only trouble Detective Mouri for now…

Such a familiar situation made Kazuma Kudo sigh, "As expected of the world of Detective Conan, if there's even a chance, they'll immediately turn you into a locked-room mystery."

After learning that the police couldn't come, everyone else felt a bit helpless.

“It seems we'll have to investigate this ourselves.” Hattori Heiji looked up at the only ventilation window on the second floor of the warehouse. “But how did the culprit escape? Did they use a rope and escape through the ventilation window?”

“Impossible,” Ryuji Takeda explained. “That air vent is too small; at most, it can only let a small child through.”

Conan and Heiji Hattori were both taken aback: "What?"

"The warehouse door was locked from the inside. If the murderer couldn't get out through the air vent, wouldn't that be a locked-room murder?"

“It’s not exactly a locked room, and the air vent isn’t too small.” Kudo Kazuma tilted his head. “The murderer can’t go out through the air vent, but the murder weapon can come in. For example, Hattori, if you were standing at the window, I could definitely hit you from the outside.”

"I suspect the killer set up some kind of trap, but I don't know much about these things, so it's up to you guys."

After saying that, he put his hands in his pockets and walked out, saying, "I'm not feeling well, I'm going to rest. Good luck to you guys."

He was feeling a bit unwell before, but after absorbing Shinichi Takeda's soul and also absorbing a small amount of the remaining soul of Negishi on the first floor, he is now fine.

Not participating in solving cases is simply laziness.
