Conan: Naruto

"A year ago, I recovered from my lower back injury."

Kenzo Tajima sighed and said nothing more.

"Actually, what I don't quite understand is...why Miss Itoe is here."

Shinichi Kudo stood on the left of Tamanosuke Ito, looking at Kenzo Tajima in confusion.

"I killed Tiefu Jinshi, and I have already let go of my heart."

Kenzo Tajima never looked up.

He narrated smoothly:

"Unexpectedly, someone put a blank piece of paper under the door of my room and asked me to meet here at nine o'clock in the evening.

In desperation, I had no choice but to come here beforehand, activate the lift platform of the stage first, and then block the lift platform with a brittle wooden board that had been chopped several times with a knife.

Then Ms. Itoe came here, stepped on the brittle board, and fell into the basement of the stage. "

"how come......"

Ito Tamanosuke said incomprehensibly:

"Although I can't be sure who the real Edo boy is, I sent a blank sheet of paper to everyone, but how could the secret code I wrote attract Ms. Itoe..."

"Can I see that blank sheet of paper?"

Kudo Shinichi looked at Tamanosuke Ito in surprise.

Tamanosuke regained his composure, looked down at Shinichi, and explained seriously:

"I didn't write the extra note."

"I have a note from the regimental commander in my coat pocket."

Kenzo Tajima closed his eyes, unwilling to say more.

"excuse me."

Kudo Shinichi squatted down, put on a pair of unpacked police gloves, helped Tajima Kenzo to sit up, and carried out a detailed body search.

After 16 seconds.

Dongfang Haoyue dragged Ito Hui, who had regained her composure, to the left of Kudo Shinichi.

Shinichi stood up, unfolded a folded white paper in his hand, looked down at the white paper, and read calmly:

"Itoe.

I know of your crime.

At nine o'clock tonight, meet on the stage of Mihua Theater. "

Kudo Shinichi thought for a while, and analyzed calmly:

"Itoe can be converted to itoe.

If you unfold it...itarotoedokozo. "

Dongfang Haoyue heard this, looked at the white paper carefully, and thought in surprise:

"Shinichi read it just now...Itaro sent a letter to the Edo boy.

No wonder Tamanosuke Ito was able to use this blank paper to draw out the real Edo boy, Kenzo Tajima, but...

I still can't understand why Ms. Itoe, who has nothing to do with the code, came here. "

"え is pronounced as e."

Kudo Shinichi shook his head, regretfully said:

"Because Ms. Itoe's full name is おぎわらいとえ, she interpreted the e in the code as a homonym え, and mistakenly thought that the leader asked her to come here, so..."

"So she fell into the trap I set..."

Kenzo Tajima sighed deeply, looked ahead, and said with a sense of loss:

"I thought that the person who knew my true identity was Ms. Itoe. Seeing her dead, the stone hanging from her heart fell to the ground, and she calmly hid the brittle board. As a result, the leader happened to see my crime...

I thought to myself, if I don't do anything, I will..."

"I plan to kill him together."

Dongfang Haoyue looked at Kenzo Tajima indifferently, and said flatly:

"In order to hide the crime of theft, he committed murder one after another.

So far, you have no room for regret. "

"Come and see the police with us."

As usual, Kudo Shinichi reached into the inner pocket of Dongfang Haoyue's jacket, took out the rope, squatted down, and expertly tied up Kenzo Tajima.

"You guys are so professional..."

Ito Hui stared blankly at Dongfang Haoyue and then at Kudo Shinichi, feeling admiration for a moment.

"Actually, I was the one who was wrong..."

Ito Tamanosuke looked at Tajima Kenzo who was being bound by Kudo Shinichi, knelt down suddenly, put his hands on the ground, lowered his head, closed his eyes, and said with great regret:

"If I hadn't insisted on asking the theater troupe to perform the plot about the Edo boy, neither Mr. Kinshishi nor Miss Itoe would have died...It's all my fault..."

"sorry Sorry......"

Kenzo Tajima sat on the wooden board of the stage, staring blankly at Tamanosuke Ito in front of him, and suddenly shed two lines of muddy tears, his lips trembling.

--------

The next day, the sun was shining.

The dressing room of the Mihua Theater.

"Hey, sister Lily."

Wearing a blue costume and a men's wig, Kudo Shinichi ran to the left of Shirai Yuri who was putting on makeup, looked up at Yuri, and said innocently and curiously:

"May I ask... how old are you~?"

"Well... 22 years old."

Wearing a light pink costume and a delicate light blue headgear, Shirai Yuri put down the lipstick in her hand, looked at Kudo Shinichi reflected in the makeup mirror, and asked with a puzzled smile:

"Kid Conan, who is in charge of the guest performance today, why are you asking my age~?"

"Ah ha ha!"

Kudo Shinichi smiled embarrassingly, ran towards Dongfang Haoyue who was far behind on the left, raised his left hand high, waved it repeatedly, and said flickeringly without looking back:

"I'm just curious, bye~~~"

"what......"

Shirai Yuri looked at Kudo Shinichi running farther and farther with a confused face, she regained her composure, smiled cutely, stood up, turned around, and walked straight to the open door of the dressing room.

On the other side, Yi Donghui, who was wearing a pink costume and a delicate red headgear, was standing on the left of Dongfang Haoyue, handed out a prop long sword in his hand, looked at Haoyue with a smile, and seriously suggested:

"Hey, Haoyue, try wearing this long sword!"

"Good~"

Dongfang Haoyue, who was wearing a red costume and a lady's waist-length wig, looked at Yi Donghui, smiled slightly, took the long sword without thinking, and put it on her waist skillfully.

At the same time, Kudo Shinichi stopped on the right side of Haoyue, turned his head to the left, looked at Haoyue carefully, and thoughtfully analyzed in his heart:

"Miss Lily's cuteness is not low, but Haoyue did not express her liking for Lily.

From this point of view, Haoyue only likes cute girls over 22 years old.

Hmm... In other words, Miyano Akemi, whom Haoyue likes, is at least 23 years old.

Very good, I have another piece of key information! "

--------

It's a new day and the moon is shining brightly.

The villa of Daizo Kurokawa, the director of Kurokawa Hospital.

More police cars were parked outside the gate of the villa and in the courtyard of the villa.

Some police officers stood meticulously near the police car with their hands behind their backs.

--------

Villa, relatively spacious study.

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi stood side by side not far from the left front of the gate.

They looked solemnly at Daizo Kurokawa, lying on the mahogany floor two meters ahead, wearing a burgundy coat, with silver hair, a large amount of red blood spilling from the back of his head, and his hands above his head.

After three seconds.

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi retracted their gazes at the same time, looked around, carefully observed the slightly messy scene of the crime, and found...
