Ke Xue: Ai-chan and I have an agreement

Chapter 553 Uncle Maori's Epiphany

At the crime scene, Conan's eyes were like scanners, not missing any clues.

But he really had no idea where the murder weapon had gone.

Yuichi Shiina had been in the restaurant area, which was part of today's filming location.

Conan didn't believe that he would go there alone to hang out. There must be something in the restaurant that he didn't know about.

So, just to be on the safe side.

He went back into the restaurant.

As a result, he actually found some things after searching.

A ball of cotton with a faint smell of kerosene.

However, when looking at this cotton ball, Conan always felt that he was only one step away from the truth.

But he just couldn't figure it out, which made him feel a little annoyed.

Just at this moment, Mao Lilan suddenly came over.

Conan looked around, then raised his face and called sweetly, "Sister Xiaolan."

Seeing this, Mao Lilan covered her mouth and smiled.

When there are people around, Conan always calls her like this.

Although he himself said that this would hide his identity well, but just from the feeling, it was not bad...

Instead of making fun of his thoughts, Mao Lilan quietly leaned over and repeated Shiina Yuichi's words in his ear.

After listening to what Mao Lilan said, and combining it with his previous discoveries, the string that had been tense in his head suddenly broke.

Thoughts came to him like a spring, instantly solving his doubts.

But the joy on his face did not last long and was replaced by a feeling of regret.

Didn’t this guy Shiina Yuichi say he wasn’t interested?

Isn't this another step ahead?

Conan subconsciously looked at the beautiful smile so close to him, and had some guesses in his mind.

Most likely it was Xiaolan who asked.

How can it be repaired?

Conan suddenly felt sad from the bottom of his heart.

You don't even ask me for help at this moment when you need to use your brain? Xiaolan!

I feel so sad~

However, it was Shiina Yuichi's words that opened his mind.

He already had ideas about the location of the murder weapon and the real murderer.

The only remaining question is why that person did such a thing?

Or are all the things that Kazami Yoshiki said before his death true?

After new questions popped up in his mind, Conan's eyes flashed, and he soon noticed the figure of Uncle Maori reflected in the mirror embedded in a door not far away.

In recent years, Uncle Maori has also noticed Conan, and the leisurely expression on his face suddenly changed.

Just as he strode around the corner of the corridor, before he saw Conan, Masato shouted sharply, "Conan, you little brat!"

The next second, his eyes widened in confusion.

There was no sign of Conan at this end of the corridor.

Ok?

Uncle Maori scratched his head in confusion. Did he see it wrong?

Then he looked carefully at the mirror embedded in the door.

Shouldn't it?

I shouldn't be suffering from presbyopia yet, right?

With such doubts in mind, Uncle Maori walked back to the crime scene.

As for Conan, who had hidden with Mouri Ran early in the morning, his face was full of surprise.

He untied it.

He finally understood why that person did that at that time!

Ran Mouri, who was standing by, looked at Conan's expression with a faint smile on her face.

She liked to see Conan's smile that was filled with confidence and wisdom.

Although she didn't quite understand why Conan took her into hiding.

That's her father!

Conan did not notice the expression on Ran Mouri's face, but walked quickly towards the mirrored door. After careful observation, he confirmed what he was thinking.

The corridor they were in now was a "『"-shaped corridor. As long as the door at the corner was opened to the right angle, they could see the scene at the other end of the corridor.

This is why Uncle Maori discovered Conan.

After figuring out the whole story, Conan turned his attention back to the crime scene.

Next, he just had to let Uncle Maori fall asleep and then start reasoning.

As he was thinking this, Conan began to move stealthily towards the crime scene.

At this time, Uncle Maori took the excuse of returning to the scene to investigate and borrowed a pair of gloves from the police forensic personnel to look through the evidence.

Except for the coat and gloves used by the murderer when committing the crime.

There is also a pack of cigarettes and a lighter, which are all the relics of Kazami Yoshiki.

And the reason he came here was for this lighter.

He carried a lighter with him, but for some reason it couldn't light a fire.

As an old smoker, I feel uncomfortable if I don’t light up a cigarette when I think about something.

Just as he put the cigarette in his mouth and tried to light it secretly without the knowledge of the police forensic investigators, he found that he couldn't light it.

It's exactly the same as his lighter.

This is really a ghost.

Uncle Maori's expression suddenly became speechless, but soon he seemed to remember something and fell into deep thought as he looked at the lighter in his hand.

Conan was also lost in thought.

Conan sneaked to the door and stood in a daze holding his anesthetic needle watch, with a helpless expression on his face.

Just now he remembered that he had already used the anesthetic needle in the restaurant.

For a moment, he didn't know what to do.

Looking at Uncle Maori who had already stood up, Conan could only make other plans, and at the same time he couldn't help but complain in his heart.

This Kazami Yoshiki is really unlucky.

Kazami Yoshiki: ??? Didn't you want to show off? Can you blame me for this?

After much thought, Conan decided to let Uncle Maori perform on his own this time.

After all, he has found all the clues. As long as he tells Uncle Maori everything, even he can easily solve the case this time.

Thinking of this, Conan came directly to Uncle Maori and said with an innocent face, "Uncle, I found a lot of clues. Do you want to listen to them? Maybe they will help solve the case."

Uncle Maori put his hands in his pockets, glanced at them calmly, and then said with disdain, "I don't need to hear this at all, just find a place to stay."

After saying that, Uncle Maori left the crime scene on his own.

Looking at his departing back, Conan couldn't help feeling confused.

Could it be that Uncle Maori already knows who the murderer is?

Based on Uncle Maori's previous performance, Conan followed him doubtfully.

Uncle Maori just happened to run into Shiina Yuichi.

"Where have you been for all this time?" Uncle Maori looked at Shiina Yuichi with some suspicion.

Didn’t this guy really like solving cases before?

what is it today?

Shiina Yuichi: !!!

Shiina Yuichi: Defamation! This is defamation! I want to see my lawyer!

"I'm hungry, so I went to find something to eat. How's the case going?" Although Shiina Yuichi had already noticed Conan, he still couldn't help but ask an extra question.

"Almost." Uncle Maori said in a deep voice, with a slightly gloomy expression on his face.

Shiina Yuichi quickly realized that something was wrong.

This time it was the uncle who took action?

Thinking of this, Shiina Yuichi organized some words and then said, "Maybe if you come forward, the result will be better."

Uncle Maori was stunned when he heard this, and then he showed an expression that said, "As expected."

"You really know it, right?" Uncle Maori took a deep breath and smiled a more relaxed smile. "You're right. I really have to take charge of this case."

As he spoke, Uncle Maori opened the door next to him, and inside were Yucheng Liuli and others.

Uncle Maori had a very clear goal. He went straight to Yucheng Liuli and said that he had some private matters that he wanted to talk about alone.

Yucheng Liuli naturally agreed happily.

The two of them walked together towards an empty room.

Conan, who had been watching from the sidelines, saw this situation and his face suddenly changed. He took a step forward to follow, but a hand grabbed the back of Fate's neck.

When Conan turned around and found that it was Shiina Yuichi, his expression suddenly became a little displeased.

"Why are you stopping me? Uncle has the wrong person."

Unexpectedly, Shiina Yuichi shook his head in denial and said, "You are mistaken. The uncle didn't find the wrong person."

Just as Conan was about to explain, he heard Shiina Yuichi's words with a hint of profound meaning.

"Finding the real murderer is only his secondary goal. The most important thing is that the uncle wants to save the woman's future life."

Although he was a little confused, he still lowered his head when facing Shiina Yuichi's gray-brown eyes.

Damn it, did he lose to the uncle again this time?

Which step went wrong?
