Conan: Naruto

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi looked at each other, thinking and denying in their hearts:

"Officer Megure said...the prisoner is walking in the water?

almost impossible.

According to our observation of Room [-], there is no sign of pool water contamination inside the room.

So...what methods did the prisoner use..."

When Dongfang Haoyue and Kudou Shinichi thought of this, their hearts were filled with doubts and confusion.

after a while.

"Officer Mumu!"

Detective Takagi trotted back to his original position, looked at Officer Megure cautiously, and reported with slight hesitation:

"The investigation revealed ... guests did not see the inmates walking in the water."

"Takagi, are you sure there are no witnesses?"

Officer Megure was stunned for a moment and looked at Detective Takagi with a hint of surprise.

"Yes."

Detective Takagi looked at Officer Megure calmly and reported the report meticulously:

"Except for Room [-], there were at least four people in other rooms. They all said... they only saw small or large boats transporting food and sake passing outside the window."

"Is the prisoner capable of diving?"

Mouri Kogoro looked at Detective Takagi seriously.

"Theoretically impossible."

Detective Takagi looked at Mouri Kogoro and described carefully:

"The depth of the water is about fifty centimeters, so diving is almost impossible."

"Even if the pool water can really accommodate prisoners diving, there should be traces of moisture in Room [-], but there are no~"

Kudo Shinichi put his hands behind his head and looked at Mouri Kogoro with a smile.

Dongfang Haoyue looked at Kogoro innocently, about to agree.

"I stress again, do not interfere with the adults' handling of the case."

Mouri Kogoro's aura was extremely fierce, and he stared at Kudo Shinichi expressionlessly.

"I-I'm talking to myself!!"

Kudo Shinichi was startled, and shrank into Dongfang Haoyue's arms with a slight panic. His head was buried in Haoyue's collarbone, his lips moved slightly, and he said in a timid voice:

"Talking to myself!"

"Really."

Mouri Kogoro curled his lips and looked at Kudo Shinichi speechlessly.

Dongfang Haoyue resisted the itching of her collarbone touching Shinichi's lips, looked at Kogoro in surprise, and said with rapid thoughts in her heart:

"Here we go again...don't interfere with your master's handling of the case again.

Could it be that Detective Maori is hinting at us to leave the crime scene again?

But what should we do after leaving...?

It’s so nerve-wracking...Why didn’t the Maori Detective give more complete hints? I have a hard time guessing! ! ! "

Dongfang Haoyue held his head in his hands and went crazy in his mind, but in reality his hands reflexively wrapped around Kudou Shinichi's waist, making Shinichi blush and extremely shy.

Xiaolan stood in the middle behind them, covering her slightly hot right cheek with her right hand, looking at this scene with a peach blossom face, and said excitedly in her heart:

"Ju, he actually hugged me!

Obviously there are so many people present! !

God! ! ! "

"all in all."

Officer Memu held his chin with his right hand, stared at the mahogany bridge, and made a steady judgment:

"Since no one from outside entered the classical building, it must have been a guest inside the building who brutally murdered Keizo Kaneda."

Officer Megure put down his right hand, looked at Professor Iwama calmly, and asked according to police practice:

"At 25:[-] tonight, Professor Iwama, where are you?"

"Mr. Police Officer, I have been staying in room three."

Professor Iwama smiled and looked at Officer Megure warmly.

"Oh, I remembered!"

Mouri Kogoro slapped his thigh with a crisp sound, looked at Officer Megure with excitement, and recalled in a serious tone:

"At that time, Professor Iwama was shouting and searching for his glasses. He seemed very eager and unstable."

"Yes, it is."

Professor Iwama looked at Kogoro Mouri slightly embarrassed, and said frankly:

"I was looking for contact lenses and even accidentally knocked over my dinner plate."

"Not only that, I saw you closed the window."

Mouri Kogoro looked at Professor Iwama, smiled generously and acknowledged:

"Professor Iwama, you do have a sufficient alibi."

"Hearing you say that, I feel more at ease."

Professor Iwama breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Mouri Kogoro with a little joy.

"Mr. Arai."

Officer Megure looked at Arai Ryuichi, who had a drop of cold sweat flowing down his cheek, and confirmed rigorously:

"I heard you came back here after the murder, right?"

"Correct."

Arai Ryuichi looked at Officer Megure and tried his best to speak calmly:

"After Kaneda left room three, Professor Iwama asked me to buy cigarettes for him."

Ryuichi Arai took out the cigarettes from his coat pocket and showed them to Officer Megure, and calmly explained:

"So I went to a convenience store outside to buy cigarettes."

"Honestly."

Anzai Kyoko withdrew her gaze from Arai Ryuichi, looked at Officer Megure calmly, and said gently and sincerely:

"Because our store did not sell the cigarettes that customers wanted, I told Mr. Arai... the location of the convenience store."

"It took me about 10 minutes to walk over."

Ryuichi Arai looked slightly panicked and took back the cigarette, took out his wallet, rummaged for the receipt and handed it to Officer Megure, pretending to be calm and said:

"Here is my receipt."

"The time on the receipt is [-]:[-] tonight."

Officer Megure took the receipt, observed it carefully, pondered for a moment, looked back and forth at Professor Iwama and Arai Ryuichi, and cautiously concluded:

"Your alibi looks perfect."

"It seems like the prisoners are probably other guests."

Mouri Kogoro put his hands in his trouser pockets and looked at Officer Megure calmly.

After hearing this, Professor Iwama and Arai Takashi looked at each other and smiled, extremely happy.

Kudo Shinichi, who returned to his original position and got out of his shy mood, put his hands in his pockets, looked back and forth between Iwama and Arai, and calmly judged in his heart:

"Do not.

The number of people in other guest rooms is all four or more, so it is almost impossible to hide it from the sight of Miss Anzai and other guests in the same room.

Then...only Professor Iwama and Arai Ryuichi, who are alone, have the possibility of committing the crime. "

Dongfang Haoyue stood quietly on the left side of Kudou Shinichi, watching Professor Iwama and Arai Ryuichi attentively, and made a calm judgment in his heart:

"According to the rules of plot reasoning, the prisoner must be one of them.

The question is...who is the culprit?

Ryuichi Arai's receipts may have been forged, and Professor Iwama may have used a tape recorder to pretend to be searching for contact lenses in the guest room.

As for the window Iwama closed while searching for his glasses...perhaps some special technique was used.

Hiss... Thinking about it this way, Detective Mori hinted that we left the scene of the crime because he wanted us to secretly investigate the room No. [-] and expose Iwama's method of closing the window even though he was not in the room? "

Dongfang Haoyue thought about it carefully and thought with deep admiration:

"It turns out... Detective Mori discovered Professor Iwama's problem at that time.

Just when Iwama was yelling and looking for his glasses, Detective Mori already had suspicions about Iwama!

According to the rules of plot reasoning... the criminal who is exposed on the spot by the Maori detective without collecting clues is basically innocent. The hints provided by the Maori detective unintentionally usually point to the real criminal.

To sum up...the probability that Professor Iwama is the criminal is extremely high! "

Dongfang Haoyue thought about this, glanced at the calm Kogoro Mouri with determination, then looked at Professor Iwama with a calm face, and made a cautious decision in his heart:

"The top priority is to find an opportunity to investigate the suspicious clues in Room [-], dismantle Professor Iwama's alibi, and bring him to justice."
