Ke Xue: Ai-chan and I have an agreement

Professor Hirota's crime scene.

A police officer with a pineapple haircut is dispatching forensic personnel to investigate the scene.

At the same time, witnesses of the incident were also sought for testimony.

"Eh? Isn't your name Conan?"

When asking about Yuichi Shiina, Toshiko Hirota raised a question.

Ok?

Everyone present looked at Shiina Yuichi.

Conan: ...Haha, this guy...

Yuichi Shiina was also very embarrassed. He used someone else's name on a whim and was exposed.

"Actually, my name is Shiina Yuichi. I made a little joke when I was on the phone with Professor Hirota earlier."

The pineapple-headed police officer looked at Shiina Yuichi with suspicion.

"Don't look at me like this, I have actually solved a few cases. The famous detective Maori Kogoro thinks I will be a rising star in the detective world!"

In order to clear himself of suspicion, Yuichi Shiina directly used the tiger's skin and pulled out Kogoro Mori.

"Oh, you actually know Mr. Maori."

Sure enough, this pineapple-headed police officer is also one of Kogoro Mouri's admirers.

It can be said that in the world of Detective Conan, most of the police are fans of Uncle Mouri.

Conan laughed beside him and watched his performance quietly. This guy probably spoke no more than twenty sentences to Uncle Maori.

He is also a rising star, but Conan also admits that this guy is really good at solving cases.

But this time, I will definitely be the winner!

"Officer Yokomizo, it looks like the cause of death was the trophy decoration hitting the back of the head." A bespectacled forensic officer said to the man with the pineapple head.

"As expected." Detective Yokomizo said with a look of complete understanding. "It looks like an accidental death."

"Was it an accidental death?" Dr. Agasa didn't understand the case, but he wondered if this conclusion was too arbitrary.

You've only been here for less than half an hour, right?

"It's very likely. My guess is that Professor Hirota wanted to take something from the bookcase, put his foot on it, and then lost his balance."

"The entire bookcase fell down, and Professor Hirota's head hit the decoration that had fallen to the ground earlier."

Shiina Yuichi: ...Inference? Aren't you policemen concerned with evidence?

Although the explanation is reasonable, Conan doesn't think so.

First of all, the books were scattered everywhere, making the scene look very messy. The telephone that was originally placed on the cabinet fell to the ground but the microphone on it did not fall out.

is it possible?

There was even an open book covering it.

Isn't it obvious that someone has tampered with this?

With Conan's incisive hint, Officer Yokomizo realized that this was a closed-room murder case.

Shiina Yuichi, who watched the whole process from the side, had a twitching mouth.

The protagonist is so good. Even if he gives hints to the police, it won’t arouse suspicion. He also has to find a way to clear himself of suspicion.

This damn protagonist halo.

With an idea in mind, Officer Yokomizo quickly identified the suspect.

While waiting for the suspect, Conan pulled on the corner of Shiina Yuichi's clothes.

"Tell me, what method did the murderer use to make the scene look like a secret room?"

Conan thought that since his identity was exposed, he could share his discovery with Shiina Yuichi openly.

Moreover, among the cases that Shiina Yuichi had solved before, two were solved faster than his, which made him always competitive against Shiina Yuichi.

"do not know."

Shiina Yuichi reached out and ruffled Conan's hair, his tone was a little flat, and he seemed a little uninterested?

Ok?

What's wrong with him? Why does he seem strange? Is he not interested in this case?

Conan doesn’t quite understand Shiina Yuichi’s attitude. We are all detectives, so what’s wrong with sharing our discoveries?

Looking at Shiina Yuichi, who didn't want to get involved in the case at all, Conan felt a little depressed.

Never mind, he can solve the case by himself.

Soon, Conan noticed the message on the landline, and with his assistance, Officer Yokomizo also began to listen to the message.

There are thirteen messages in total.

One of them, named Shirakura Yang, made a total of ten calls, and there was a long blank space in the message box of one of the calls.

"Is this guy calling too much? If no one answers, wouldn't it be better for him to come earlier?" Shiina Yuichi thought speechlessly.

Conan and the others also became suspicious of the phone call.

Just then, Shirakura Yang arrived at the scene.

Although he explained that he came because Professor Hirota did not answer the phone, judging from the expressions of Conan and Officer Yokomizo.

Sorry, I don't believe it!

Yuichi Shiina didn't care who the murderer was. His goal was to get the disk, but there was no trace of the disk on the computer desk at the scene.

There is no relevant information stored in the computer.

It's very likely that someone took it away.

Then, the last call came.

It was a call from an insurance agent from an insurance company.

Shiina Yuichi temporarily lived in Bengbu.

Although the voice was a little different, he could recognize it as Vodka's voice.

Okay, okay, you are doing a side job behind the organization’s back, right?

Gin can no longer support you, so you need to go out and make a living?

Unlike Shiina Yuichi's happy mood, Conan also recognized that the person on the other end of the phone was Vodka.

Could it be that they were responsible for this case?

Snapped!

Shiina Yuichi looked at the thoughtful Conan and patted his head gently.

"Don't worry, it's not them." Shiina Yuichi concluded, "They won't leave their voices here."

Conan thought about it and realized that given the methods used by that organization, they would not leave such obvious clues.

He slapped Shiina Yuichi's hand away. Why did this guy always like to tie his hair?

What else could it be because of?

It feels good.

However, this phone call also gave Shiina Yuichi a clue that the organization was clearing out traces of Miyano Akemi.

This shows that the organization has intensified its efforts to track down Miyano Shiho.

But there is no need to worry too much. As long as no information about Miyano Shiho is found, the search intensity will weaken in a week or two.

"They should have had some contact with Professor Hirota. Their purpose should be the same as ours, that disk."

"If the recycling fails, there will be a penalty for Vodka."

Shiina Yuichi said with some gloating.

Conan also breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know why, even though Shiina Yuichi was also a member of the brewery, he always felt at ease when he heard that he and Gin and the others were not getting along.

Putting aside the matter of the Black Organization for the moment, Conan turned his attention back to the case at hand.

After a while, the three suspects arrived.

First there was Mr. Hoshishi, who wanted to get a letter of recommendation from Professor Hirota for his daughter, and then there was Mr. Morioka, who had an appointment to play chess with Professor Hirota but couldn't wait for him.

And Shirakura Yo who wants to get back the photos of him dressed as a woman.

Shiina Yuichi glanced at Bai Cangyang and shook his head in disappointment.

As expected, even in Nanliang, one needs to rely on appearance.

His evaluation is that he is not as good as Asai Narimi.

After briefly asking the three people about the time they arrived.

Shiina Yuichi found that Shirakura Yang's eyes were a little strange. He was always secretly looking at the phone when others were talking.

Is there anything there?

At this time, the forensic personnel were checking the message tape in the landline phone, and Bai Cangyang's expression became a little nervous.

Shiina Yuichi took a look at the tapes that had been pulled out. There were a few unclear marks on them. Shiina Yuichi walked forward to take a look.

It looks like... a fingerprint.

That tingling feeling came over him, and Shiina Yuichi turned back coldly to meet the source of the gaze.

It was Shirakura Yang.

This malicious look was familiar to him. Was he trying to kill me?

Shiina Yuichi could see the murderous intent hidden in his eyes.

Humph, you're done.

Yuichi Shiina was basically certain that the person who killed Professor Hirota was this Shirakura Yo.

But he didn't want to get involved in solving the case.

Shiina Yuichi glanced at Conan who was still walking back and forth in front of the evidence and gave a sinister smile.

"Conan, come here." Shiina Yuichi waved at Conan.

"What's wrong?" Conan just had some ideas when he was called over by Shiina Yuichi.

"That Shirakura Yang is the murderer, and the evidence is in the tape on the answering machine."

"And I suspect his motive is inseparable from his cross-dressing. Plus, Professor Hirota likes to put photos on disks, so he will definitely take all the disks away, maybe leaving them at his home or in his car."

"Think about it, this room is a secret room. If he wants to get out, he must use the key, but the key is under the book in the room. Obviously, he used some method to get it there."

"Combined with the video tape I told you about before, the only things that can be used in the room are the books and the chess pieces scattered on the floor."

"You taste it, you taste it carefully."

Shiina Yuichi talked a lot and Conan's eyes widened.

Has he solved the case again?

Faster than him?

"Since you know the murderer and have evidence, why don't you tell it yourself?" Conan questioned.

"Because I don't want to take notes." Shiina Yuichi said bluntly.

Conan: ...
