Conan Moslin

Chapter 240 The Duke of Darkness (20) Sleeping

Do you feel like you’ve skipped a lot of things?

It’s okay, let’s talk about what Conan did during this time.

He followed several police officers who were inspecting the 21st floor to the interrogation room on the 4th floor, and used the tape he had prepared earlier to lock up Mr. Maori and others from the outside.

He presented Miss Sayama's alibi, and several people went to the front desk to find out the situation.

He took Kogoro Mouri to the bar. This time he was not kicked out by the waiter. Instead, he learned from the bartender that Kogoro Mouri had been given sleeping pills.

"What? Why didn't Kuroba tell me about this?" Kogoro Mouri was shocked when he heard the bartender's words.

The bartender wiped the glass quietly, not surprised: "When she mentioned this matter, she was interrupted by the lady who was with you."

"So they went outside..."

"Then I don't know, sir."

The few of them finally arrived at the open-air restaurant downstairs and found Jincheng's alibi.

Conan also found his fountain pen that was leaking ink and could not be used, and then asked about the topic of "wind".

at the same time.

"You said the policeman who was knocked unconscious was a karate master?"

Kogoro Mouri grabbed the police officer who raised this question, and became very proud as he watched the other person nod in panic.

"Good! I know who the murderer is!"

Having eliminated all the truth, Kogoro Mouri confidently gave the wrong answer and asked the police to gather all the relevant people together again.

This up and down journey that lasted for several hours was finally coming to an end.

When Conan heard Uncle Maori's words, he realized that the situation was not good, so he tore up the notebook quickly and handed the recorded paper to the police officer who went upstairs, completing the preliminary work for Maori Kogoro.

Members of the tour group got off the elevator one after another, and some of them had sweaty palms.

Li An and Xiao Lan, who had a time difference with the police officers who were calling for help, went downstairs ahead of them with the two witnesses.

The night is still dark.

The area downstairs had already been cleared, with only the police officer and a waiter who was left for questioning left there.

The long tablecloth on the round table almost dragged the ground, and the chairs were neatly tucked under the table.

Only through the gaps between the chairs could one cautiously glimpse a barely perceptible red light in the darkness under a few tables, flickering like breathing.

"Dad! I found Mr. Maeda's alibi!" Mao Lilan shouted to her father.

"What did you say?!"

Kogoro Mori was suddenly interrupted, and all his original considerations were completely overturned at this moment.

He was surprised to see his daughter pulling two breathless girls behind her, her eyes gleaming with a light he hadn't seen in a long time.

Something seemed to have changed.

"Mr. Maeda had met these two ladies at the time of the incident!" Mao Lilan said seriously.

The two girls said in unison: "There is absolutely no doubt about this!"

Kogoro Mouri was stunned for a full half minute, and his expression gradually changed from certainty to confusion.

"Then... who could be the murderer?"

"Mr. Mori...you?" Officer Yokomizo was a little incredulous.

Maori Kogoro forced a smile: "No problem, I know who the murderer is!"

Kuroba Kuriyasu did not get involved in the conversation of the others. He followed slowly behind Xiaolan and the others, and was then pulled by Conan to the side of the flowers and plants.

She glanced at Conan's smiling face and heard him acting coquettishly: "Sister Li An——"

Li An took the note from him and glanced at it.

It only took her three seconds to go from smiling to exhausted.

"Please spare me..." She held her forehead and spoke weakly, "I can't hold on that long, you go find Mr. Maori."

Conan was stunned.

Mao Lilan handed the evidence of the two ladies to the police officer and took a photo. She thanked them very sincerely and planned to send them away and return home.

But after hearing that the person solving the case was the famous detective Mouri Kogoro, the two were unwilling to leave.

"We are both fans of Detective Maori! We won't disturb Mr. Maori from investigating the case!" said the more lively girl.

The gentler girl also spoke up: "We'll just watch here and won't come close to disturb you."

"All right……"

Mao Lilan returned to the home field of reasoning.

I don’t know how many times the tour group has gathered together.

Zhuozhuo's eyes have been focused.

The key clue of Maori Ran obviously gave Maori Kogoro a great shock. He thought silently for a long time before he barely connected the broken string in his mind.

He sorted out his notes, sorted out the mess in his mind, and then spoke dryly.

"Okay, now I want to confirm with you the victim's alibi for falling to his death at ten o'clock."

"First, Mr. Jincheng and Ms. Lin, as well as Ms. Kamijou and Kuroba. The waiter at the open-air restaurant saw you during the time you fell from the building."

"As for Dr. Agasa and Haibara Ai, Mr. Terai can prove it."

"Ms. Sayama and Mr. Maeda Satoshi..." He hesitated for a moment, but still said, "The front desk has Ms. Sayama's phone records, and my daughter Xiaolan found a witness for Mr. Maeda."

After analyzing each point one by one, he gradually regained his confidence: "So, the only person whose alibi is still unclear is Mr. Konno who was reading the email in the room!"

Konno Shiro raised his head, his originally calm tone now tinged with dissatisfaction: "You mean... I am the murderer?"

"After the murderer carelessly committed the crime, he stole the Duke of Darkness's clothes from the office where Mr. Jiang Yuan's body was placed. Unfortunately, Miss Sayama and her friends saw them in the elevator."

"I got a piece of news from the police officer." Maori Kogoro walked over to him, "The police officer who was knocked unconscious in the office is actually a karate master!"

"Mr. Maeda has an alibi, so..."

Kogoro Mori raised his fist.

"Everyone listen, we must not be fooled by his appearance. In fact, he is hiding the truth. In fact, he is a karate master!"

Boom!

A big lump appeared on Shiro Konno's head. He shook his head and touched it. When he reacted, anger burst out of his eyes.

"What are you doing!"

Maori Kogoro withdrew his hand awkwardly: "Uh...it doesn't seem to be the case."

"Are you done yet?" Kamijou Hideko couldn't bear to listen anymore.

There is nothing interesting in this detective's notes. How did he become a famous detective?

Edogawa Conan looked up and saw the signal light on the balcony began to flash, the experiment was ready.

He didn't have time to communicate with Li An to explain the situation. He raised his wrist without hesitation, and the anesthetic needle on his watch was aimed at Maori Kogoro who was forced to sit not far behind Li An.

Kamijou Hideko slammed the table and said, "Who is the murderer? Tell me!"

"Mr. Maori, please don't waste time and tell us quickly, okay?" Officer Yokomizo was also a little anxious.

An anesthetic needle that was difficult to see with the naked eye passed through the invisible hole of the watch and pierced straight into the detective's neck.

As soon as it came into contact, the thin needle naturally penetrated the skin and melted into it.

Kogoro Mori fell into a deep sleep almost immediately.

"Mr. Maori!" "Dad!"

Surprised voices came one after another, and Li An also widened his eyes slightly.

This... is too blatant, right?

Conan Edogawa gave soul to this sleeping actor. He trotted around Kurian, supported Kogoro's crooked shoulder, and adjusted the red bow tie at his collar.

A serious and steady voice came from the sleeping Kogoro Mouri.

"I think our joke ends here."

The double act actors are in place, and now the show is about to begin.
