My neighbor's name is Conan

Chapter 837 Confirming the Murderer

Just when Toyama Kazuha and Mao Li Ran were about to agree, they heard Xiao Ba's call outside the door.

Mao Lilan listened for a while and said, "It's Xiao Ba's cry!"

"Hachi, will he be in danger?" Yuanshan Heye said with some concern, then looked at Mao Lilan and said, "Let's bring Hachi in!"

"Yeah!" After hearing what Toyama Kazuha said, Mouri Ran looked at her and nodded, then she reached out and opened the door and walked out hesitantly.

Fortunately, the magic dog had left and could no longer be seen in the yard. Toyama Kazuha and Mao Li Ran hurriedly ran towards the doghouse, and then saw Xiao Ba standing in front of the doghouse, and nothing had happened.

The two breathed a sigh of relief and then called Hattori Heiji.

While waiting for Aoki Matsu and others to return to Inubushi Castle, Toyama Kazuha and Mao Li Ran were in front of Kohachi's doghouse. Seeing this, Hattori Heiji first breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he looked at the two men and asked, "Really? Did you really see the dog burning?"

Yuanshan and Ye nodded seriously, "Well, we saw it, right, Xiaolan?"

"Well, it's not some fluorescent paint." Mao Lilan nodded in agreement: "Although it has disappeared now, the place where the dog ran left footprints of fire."

After hearing what Mao Lilan said, Shancun Cao shone the flashlight on the footprints over there and said: "It is indeed the same burn marks as on the cliff."

Maori Kogoro turned his head and looked at Toyama Kazuha and Maori Ran and said, "By the way, where did that dog come from?"

Yuanshan Heye pointed to the back corner and said, "It's right inside there."

Qing Musong, who had been squatting down to observe the footprints left by the demon dog, said with some confusion: "The footprints left by the demon dog here are very strange."

"Eh?!"

After hearing what Qing Musong said, everyone turned their heads and looked at him in confusion.

Qing Musong pointed at the footprints on the ground and said, "Look, judging from the distance between the footprints, there should be footprints in this area, right? But only here is it suddenly empty, and only here is the ground messy."

Mao Lilan looked at it and said, "Brother Aoki, this seems to be the place where Kazuha fell." Then she looked towards Yuanshan Kazuha.

Yuanshan Heye looked at the ground thoughtfully and said, "Well, I remember that I seemed to smell a very strange smell after I fell."

Hearing this, Hattori Heiji quickly asked, "Strange smell? What is that smell?"

"Hmm!" Yuanshan Heye thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be the smell of rotten onions. Anyway, it is a very pungent smell."

【onion!?】

Several people were stunned.

Mao Lilan suddenly thought of something at this time. "Ah! Oh, and after we ran into the house to take shelter, we ran out to see Xiao Ba right away. It seemed to be alive."

Conan was stunned when he heard this. "Huh? Alive?"

Upon hearing this, Shancun Cao said as a matter of course: "Of course, it attacked you all."

"No, I'm not talking about the demon dog, I'm talking about the burning footprints." Mao Lilan explained: "It made a 'crackling' sound, and it seemed to be jumping around. You saw it too, Kazuha, right? Xiao Xi and Kenji also came out with it."

"Yes! I saw it too!" Yuanshan Heye nodded and replied, "It's as if there is a soul beating in the footprints."

Upon hearing this, Yamamura Cao looked at the two and complained, "But you are so brave to go out. What if the demon dog is still there?"

Yuanshan Heye heard this and said, "Because we are really worried about Xiaoba!"

Mao Lilan then said: "What if it is eaten by the demon dog?"

"I finally figured out the route the demon dog took to get in..." Maori Kogoro suddenly said, "It came in through the back door. After the lock was removed, the door was left open, and there were dog footprints on it, which means..."

Maori Kogoro walked towards Inubushi Yukihime and the other three and said, "The murderer who brought this demon dog into this mansion is most likely one of the four of you who were in the mansion at the time, because it would be impossible for the unconscious Suo Po to do it."

Qing Musong heard this and asked, "Xiao Lan, you said you went to the yard to feed Xiao Ba, right? Who asked you to do that?"

"It was Miss Yukihime." Mao Lilan replied: "But she said that it was because the other three people refused..."

Yuanshan Heye continued: "Maybe the murderer had expected that we would be the ones to feed the dogs."

[Indeed, based on this alone, everyone is still a suspect.]

Hearing this, Hattori Heiji said to the two girls: "However, it is certain that someone is raising a demon dog next to this mansion."

"That's right. If they were too far away, we wouldn't be able to immediately attack Sister Xiaolan who came to feed the dogs." Conan also said.

Upon hearing this, Qing Musong said, "Now there is one more problem that we need to figure out."

"What's the problem?" Shancuncao asked quickly.

"That is, what is the purpose of the demon dog that suddenly appeared!" Qing Musong said.

"What do you mean?" asked Kogoro Mouri.

Qing Musong explained: "You know, it is Miss Xingji who usually feeds Xiao Ba. The other three people all refused Miss Xingji's request to help feed the dog. Logically, it should have been Miss Xingji who fed Xiao Ba just now.

Xiaolan and the others helped to feed Xiaoba out of kindness. In such a short time, how did the murderer know that it must be Xiaolan and Ye who would feed the dog tonight! Instead of Miss Xingji who was rejected by the three at the same time and had no choice but to feed the dog by herself?

So did the demon dog just now deliberately rush towards people, or did it just want to prove to everyone that the demon dog is not fictional? This question is very important. If it was going towards Miss Yuki..."

[Someone wants to kill Miss Yuki! ]

This is the thought that came to many people's minds after listening to Aoki Matsu's words.

"That makes sense." Shancun Cao looked at everyone and asked, "So, do you have any clear clues? For example, have you ever heard a dog barking in this forest?"

Inufushi Chiaki immediately responded, "Come to think of it, the second victim, Miwako, once told me about it, and we went to see it together! She said there was a strange hut with barking sounds coming from it, but we were too scared and didn't go in."

Upon hearing this, Kogoro Mouri said angrily: "What did you say?!" Why didn't you say it earlier!

Hattori Heiji immediately asked: "Where is the hut?!"

Seeing this, Inufushi Chiaki said fearfully, "It's next to the swamp where Migako drowned."

"Take us there now!" said Hattori Heiji.

Inufushi Chiaki said hesitantly, "Shall we go now?"

Hattori Heiji explained: "If we go right away, we might be able to find out more about the mechanism of the demon dog."

"That's right." Maori Kogoro also agreed. "If there is a murderer among you, there should be no time to destroy all the evidence."

Inufushi Chiaki said in embarrassment: "But I have to rush back to the hospital tonight because it is my turn to be on duty."

Maori Kogoro immediately suggested, "After we check the hut, I'll drive you there right away!"

Hattori Heiji then threatened, "If you were to walk through the forest to the hospital alone, you would be scared, right?

Inufushi Chiaki felt a little guilty when he heard this and said, "But, at that time, I was just following Migako, and I didn't know exactly where the swamp was."

Inubushi Yukihime said at this time: "If you want to go to the swamp, I can take you there! Because I am very familiar with that forest! And it is not far from here."

"Okay, then we'll trouble Mr. Chiaki and Ms. Yuki to take us there. Maruta, you stay to protect Xiaolan and the others." Aoki Matsu said, and then looked at Inubushi Zenya and Inubushi Koko. "Ms. Koko and Mr. Zenya, you two should stay in the living room with Xiaolan and the others until we and Inspector Yamamura come back. This way, we can try to clear the suspicion on you two."

"Okay." Maruda Ayumi responded.

Inubushi Zenya and Inubushi Koko's expressions changed, but they still accepted Aoki Matsu's kindness.

Then Aoki Matsu and his friends, along with Brother Cao, followed Inubushi Yukihime and Inubushi Chiaki and headed for the swamp. On the way, Aoki Matsu took out his cell phone and sent a text message to Maruta Ayumi, saying that there was something he needed to check carefully.

Soon, several people arrived at the swamp under the leadership of the Inufu brothers and sisters.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Hattori Heiji looked at the swamp in front of him and said, "Oh~ This is the swamp!"

Conan looked around and then turned to Yamamura So and asked, "Hey~ I heard that there will be fire around this swamp. Is it true?"

Shancun Cao nodded and replied, "Yes, but there are only traces of burning in some places."

Maori Kogoro looked at Inufushi Chiaki and asked, "So, where is the small house you mentioned?"

Inufushi Chiaki lowered his head slightly when he heard this, as if he had told a lie and was feeling flustered. "Well, well..."

Inufushi Chiaki said as he shone the flashlight around. When the flashlight shone on the small house across the pool, Inufushi Chiaki said excitedly: "That's it! It seems to be that old house!"

Maori Kogoro was also a little excited when he heard this and said, "Then let's break into the demon dog's lair and take a look!"

Aoki Matsu couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard that. Uncle Maori is so immature.

After seeing the location of the hut, Kogoro Mori and his companions walked downstairs.

"Everyone! Be careful with your steps!" Inufushi Yukihime warned, "This swamp is bottomless!"

At this time, Inufushi Chiaki did not follow them. Noticing this, Hattori Heiji turned around and looked at him and said, "Aren't you coming with us?"

Inufushi Chiaki said fearfully: "How can I get over there? I'll just wait for you in the car!"

Aoki Matsu glanced at Inufushi Chiaki and his suspicion of him increased.

Please, at this time, the murderer keeps killing the lone adopted children of Inubushi, and Inubushi Chiaki dares to stay here alone instead of joining forces with Aoki Matsu and others.

If he was as skilled as Mao Lilan, then Aoki Matsu could barely understand it. But Inufushi Chiaki had always been very cowardly and afraid.

It was obvious that he wanted to stay here alone, which was totally inconsistent with his previous image and personality.

When things go wrong, there must be a demon!

Now, a likely suspect has finally emerged in this case.

It’s not easy!

Unfortunately, Aoki Matsu is alone now and has no "equipment", so there is no way to track him.

Hearing this, Hattori Heiji said, "Oh, okay!"

After hearing what Inubushi Chiaki said, Hattori Heiji didn't care. He just said it and followed them to the cabin with Conan.

Aoki Matsu was walking at the back, but halfway through, he turned around and saw that Inubushi Chiaki was standing there and he could not see his current location, so he went back directly - he was going to follow Inubushi Chiaki.

As for the cottage.

There are Hattori Heiji and Conan!

If these two people couldn't find any clues, Qing Musong felt that he probably wouldn't be able to find any clues either.

In this case, it would be better to follow Inufushi Chihuang.

If Inubushi Chiaki is not the murderer, then Aoki Matsu will pretend to be a good person and protect him secretly. If Inubushi Chiaki is the murderer, he will most likely take advantage of this opportunity to do something bad, and Aoki Matsu may not be able to catch him!

It was already dark, so Qing Musong bent down and touched it stealthily.

As expected, Inubushi Chiaki was not seen next to the car.

Qing Musong looked around and touched that part upwards, and saw a white person with his back to the car, seemingly whistling in a certain direction.

Then Qing Musong saw a black shadow quickly rush out and pounce on the white man. The black shadow did not bite the other person, but was very close to him.

Then Qing Musong saw the white man draping a white thing over the black shadow. The next second, the white thing turned fiery red and looked like a burning demon dog.

With the light, Aoki Matsu discovered that the white man was Inubushi Chiaki, and the black shadow was a dog. The "clothes" the dog was wearing turned out to be - red LED lights!

So that's how the demon dog came about!

Needless to say, Inubushi Chiaki is the murderer!

Aoki Matsu remembered the LED Tron Dance that he saw international superstar Michael Jackson perform at a concert in his previous life.

It’s just that they only use lines to create the human shape, instead of using a large area to cover the whole person.

Afterwards, Aoki Matsu saw that Inufushi Chiaki tied something on the "demon dog"'s body, but he couldn't see it clearly because it was a bit far away.

Soon Inubushi Chiaki was ready and started acting.

What kind of play?

Of course, it’s a scene where you pretend to fight with a demon dog!

Moreover, the place where Inufushi Chiaki ran was just outside the window of the cabin.

Aoki Matsu hid to the side for a while. Because it was dark, Inubushi Chiaki did not notice Aoki Matsu and ran straight past him.

The "demon dog" also followed behind Inufushi Chiaki and ran after him.

Then Aoki Matsu saw that after the "demon dog" ran past, "flames" were burning on the road.

After Inubushi Chiaki and the "demon dog" ran away, Aoki Matsu went forward to check the fire, and then instantly understood the modus operandi.
