Conan: Naruto

A new day, the sun is shining.

The client's Japanese-style [School-made] super-large courtyard.

"Click."

It is the sound of stones hitting the shore under the influence of gravity after the long bamboo pipes used to divert water from small ponds are filled with water.

"Wow!"

Xiaolan squatted on the shore, with her elbows bent and her forearms overlapping and placed on her thighs across her front.

She watched a fish jump out of the water, and exclaimed with joy:

"This fish jumped out again~!"

"It's rare for a Maori detective to take us out for dinner..."

Not far from Xiaolan's left, Kudo Shinichi squatted on the rocks on the shore, put his mouth against Dongfang Haoyue's ear on the right, and whispered angrily:

"But he said he was going to come over here...!

How could there be a detective in the world who came to report the results of an affair investigation and brought two children with him! "

"No matter what he said, he took us to dinner~!"

Dongfang Haoyue, who was squatting on the stone, put her mouth next to Kudo Shinichi's ear, and persuasively said:

"The little fish here are so cute, let's forgive Maori Detective~!"

"Haoyue is still considerate as always..."

Before Kudo Shinichi finished speaking, suddenly!

"Squeak."

It was the sound of the courtyard gate being opened.

A mysterious person walked into the courtyard with steady and powerful steps, and walked straight to the door of the client's house.

"Is it the client's guest~?"

Dongfang Haoyue looked back curiously, and only saw a pair of black leather shoes, the others were blocked by thick and tall bushes.

"probably."

Kudo Shinichi glanced back at the mysterious man, then continued to look at the fish in the pond.

After 19 seconds.

"Crack."

It was the sound of the sliding side door of the house being opened.

When the three of Xiaolan heard the movement, they turned their heads to look at the side door at the same time, and found...

The burly client stood inside the door, holding the door frame with his left hand, looked back at Kogoro Mori sitting on the tatami, and said goodbye apologetically:

"Sorry, I went to the main entrance to open the door for the guests.

I'll be back as soon as I've taken the guest to another house. "

Before the words were finished, the client walked towards the main entrance along the long corridor built around the house, with an angry expression on his face.

Dongfang Haoyue stuck it to Kudo Shinichi's ear, and whispered secretly:

"That person seems very unhappy."

"Ah."

Kudo Shinichi posted it to Dongfang Haoyue's ear, and explained sympathetically:

"After all, the Maori detective found out that the man's wife had cheated, so it's a problem if you don't get angry!"

"Makes sense..."

Dongfang Haoyue nodded approvingly.

after a while.

"Dulululu."

It is the landline phone's continuous and repeated ringtones.

"Noisy!!"

Lying in the corridor under the eaves, Mori Kogoro, who was sleeping peacefully with his hands behind his head, was disturbed by the noise and stood up abruptly.

He clenched his hands excitedly, turned his head to look at the landline phone on the desk in the corridor, and accused angrily:

"What the hell is that guy doing, why isn't he answering the phone?!"

Xiaolan stood up, looked at Mori Kogoro, and calmly explained:

"He just went to another house far away, so he shouldn't be able to hear the ringing of the phone here."

"Ah, damn it!"

Mori Kogoro walked to the desk, and was about to reach out to pick up the phone, but found that the phone was automatically disconnected, and complained angrily:

"No one answered the phone for too long, so I hung up automatically!"

1 minutes later.

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi, who were standing in the courtyard with their hands in their pockets, heard a strange voice, their eyes froze, and they suddenly turned their heads to look in the same direction.

Haoyue quickly opened the system panel, looked at the rapidly rising energy points, put Xinyi on her back, and quickly ran towards the direction of the sound.

"Conan, Haoyue!!"

Xiaolan noticed that Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi were running farther and farther, and hurriedly chased after them.

When Kogoro Mouri heard the movement, he stood up resolutely and chased after Xiaolan, and asked helplessly:

"Hey, where are you going?!"

On the other side, Kudo Shinichi lay on Dongfang Haoyue's shoulder, looked up at the single-family house that was getting closer and closer, and said with a solemn expression:

"It sounded like someone was banging or scraping something.

It made me feel quite uncomfortable. "

"Well, it's like the teacher drew a sharp and harsh mark on the blackboard with chalk."

Dongfang Haoyue nodded approvingly, kicked open the locked door of the house in front of her, and found...

The room is full of traces of random scratches by knives, even the ceiling is no exception.

There is also a middle-aged man with a beard on the left and right sides of the nose standing in the middle of the room.

He was wearing a black suit, white shirt, black tie, a pair of black leather shoes on his feet, and a long iron knife with red blood on the front half in his hand.

In addition, the client whose back was leaning against the wall was continuously bleeding from the chest, gradually soaking the generous coat on his body.

Silver light danced between Dongfang Haoyue's fingers, and without hesitation, she shot eight embroidery needles past the middle-aged man who had just turned to face Haoyue.

The embroidery needles collided with each other in mid-air to change the trajectory of the action, and precisely hit eight parts behind the man, making the man's limbs immobile.

Under the extremely strange flight path and extremely fast firing speed of the embroidery needle, he has no room for resistance.

In the next second, the middle-aged man fell forward limply and lay heavily on the ground.

Because of this, he couldn't hold the long knife in his hand, causing the long knife to fall to the ground along with the gravity of the earth, making a crisp collision sound.

At this time, Mao Li Xiaowulang, who ran behind Dongfang Haoyue, saw the scene inside the house clearly, and immediately turned his head to look at Xiaolan on the left, and said solemnly:

"Xiaolan, go to the police!"

"Yes!"

Feeling a little scared, Xiaolan was instructed to quickly regain her senses and rushed to the main house, intending to use the landline phone in the main house to call the police.

Mori Kogoro ignored Kudo Shinichi, who was tying up the middle-aged man, and went straight to the client, half kneeling on the ground, and stretched out his hand to feel the pulse of the client.

Five seconds later, Kogoro shook his head regretfully, and told him calmly:

"He is dead."

Mori Kogoro turned to look at the middle-aged man whose embroidery needle had been taken back and tied up, and asked calmly:

"Who are you?

Why kill Mr. Marudenjiro? "

"It never occurred to me that I, who have practiced kendo for decades, would one day be defeated by a few small embroidery needles."

The middle-aged man who was helped up by Kudo Shinichi and sat on the ground looked up at the ceiling, feeling disappointed and said:

"There are people beyond human beings, and there is sky beyond the sky. Now even children can skillfully use ropes to tie me up, and even subdue me with embroidery needles...

What kind of things have I practiced in the past half of my life..."

The tone of the middle-aged man is full of despair of doubting life.
