Conan: I can hear the murderer's voice

When Lin Xuan and Conan arrived, the only thing left in the room was a corpse lying in a pool of blood and Maori who was knocked unconscious.

Twenty minutes later, the old policeman who was about to retire came slowly to the hospital on a broken bicycle.

Kogoro Mori's "trouble" these days not only disgusted the hospital, but also consumed the trust of the local police station.

However, a murder really happened tonight. The victim was Dr. Oe who worked in this hospital, and the murder weapon was a knife inserted into the victim's chest.

The old policeman quickly reported the situation, and soon the county headquarters criminal policeman Yamamura Cao came with a group of local police officers to provide support.

Lin Xuan was asking the nurse in the corridor about the deceased's interpersonal relationships when Xiaolan came over to ask for help:

"Senior, the police officer insisted that Dad was the murderer and even removed the plaster to check if Dad's leg had healed."

[I actually suspected Kogoro]

"Don't be afraid. As long as I'm here, you won't be wronged."

After comforting the girl, the two returned to Kogoro Mouri's ward together.

The ward was particularly lively at this moment. The local police surrounded Mao Li's entire ward. Shancuncao even held down Mao Li's broken leg in a cast and tried to open it for a thorough inspection.

Maori Kogoro blushed and spoke angrily:

"I said I was knocked unconscious as soon as I entered the room. I was woken up by those two little devils."

"And I've already said that there are murders in the hospital every night. Instead of investigating it properly, you treat me like a lunatic."

Maori thought that the local police officers were just a bunch of good-for-nothings. He continued to accuse them:

"If you could take responsibility, how could Dr. Dajiang die tragically?"

These accusations made Shancuncao very unhappy, and he responded:

"Mouri Kogoro, we suspect you are the murderer. Please cooperate with the investigation!"

Initially, the local police station also admired this famous detective, but more than ten days of nonsense made their attitude towards Mao Li change from admiration to disgust.

Moreover, Yamamura So had just received a report that made him certain that Kogoro was the murderer.

The smell of gunpowder in the air became thicker and thicker. Conan also heard the quarrel and returned to the ward. The Death God Elementary School Student retorted:

"My uncle broke a leg and couldn't walk without crutches. How could you kill a healthy adult male in this situation?"

Shancun Cao stared at the plaster on Maoli's leg and said:

“That’s why we need Mr. Maori’s cooperation and let the hospital re-examine his leg injury.”

"His leg has long been healed, he just pretended to be like this to avoid punishment."

"If he's not the murderer, why should I be afraid?"

"Even if you are a great detective, you can't escape legal punishment!"

Maori snorted coldly:

"Removing the cast before the bone has healed will lead to secondary injury unless you can provide evidence."

"Otherwise I would never agree to such an impolite request!"

This unwillingness to cooperate only increased Shancun Cao's suspicion of Maori.

Xiaolan became more and more uneasy, and her body began to tremble slightly.

Lin Xuan held the girl's hand tightly to comfort her. He asked the leading police officer:

"So what's the motive? Why would a famous detective risk his own reputation by killing a doctor at a country hospital?"

"Because Mr. Maori has gone crazy. It's a pity, but that's the truth."

A doctor in a white coat entered the ward.

Xiaolan couldn't believe it:

"Dr. Shirai, that's impossible. What you said is not true."

Shirai is Kogoro's attending physician, and it was he who called Xiaolan and suggested that the patient be sent to a large hospital in Tokyo for a thorough brain examination.

It was also the motive for murder provided by Shirai that made Yamamura Sou suspect that Mori was the murderer.

The attending physician continued:

"Perhaps it was because of the title of famous detective and the pressure of solving the case that Mr. Maori gradually became mentally ill."

Lin Xuan was speechless.

【Brother, what are you talking about? 】

[What kind of pressure can a person who solves crimes by relying on his neck have? 】

"The reason why you have hallucinations every night recently is that Mr. Maori's subconscious mind hopes that a murder will happen in the hospital so that he can have a chance to show his talents as a famous detective."

"I think it was the subconscious desire that prompted Mr. Maori to kill Oe tonight."

For the first time, Maori's eyes showed confusion.

[Even Dr. Shirai said so, am I really crazy? ]

The murderer jumped out in front of Lin Xuan.

[I didn’t expect that even the famous detective could be fooled by me]

[Let Maori Kogoro take the blame for me. What other murderer can do that? ]

Lin Xuan interrupted Shirai who was opening a glass of champagne in his mind:

"What he saw was not an illusion, because we also saw someone killing someone in the ward across the street. Right, Conan?"

Conan rarely agreed with Lin Xuan's opinion, and he added:

"The alarm in the ward rang and we were all woken up. Then a murder happened in the ward opposite."

"My uncle had just woken up from bed at that time. He had no time to commit the crime!"

Lin Xuan took apart the top of the desk lamp on the bedside table, and everyone discovered that the lighting lamp also had an alarm clock function.

After checking the internal structure of the desk lamp, Shancuncao was dumbfounded.

"Could it be that someone wants to frame Maori Kogoro?"

Doctor Shirai pretended to be surprised:

"Who replaced the desk lamp? The desk lamps in our hospital clearly don't have an alarm function."

But the murderer certainly had another idea in mind.

[I didn’t expect that high school and elementary school students could be so observant]

[But I can even control the police and the famous detective, let alone you? ]

At this time, the police forensic department rushed to the ward. He hesitated but still reported truthfully:

"The fingerprint on the murder weapon has been matched. It's Kogoro Maori's fingerprint."

After hearing this report, Yamamura Cao's eyes lit up immediately, and the doubts about the lamp were instantly thrown to the back of his mind. He asked Maori Kogoro again:

"Detective, do you have anything else to say?"

Kogoro said helplessly:

"I was knocked unconscious by the real murderer, so of course he could use my hand to grab the murder weapon and leave fingerprints."

[This idiot, can't even think of this? ]

But Yamamura Tsao had already suspected Mao Li of committing the crime, and the fingerprints on the murder weapon became irrefutable evidence:

"No matter how famous they are or how powerful their background is, I will never let any criminal go! Arrest them!"

The police were about to take action, and Conan quickly reminded them:

"Lin Xuan and I also witnessed the murder with our own eyes. The uncle is not the murderer."

Yamamura Cao used his genius mind to perfect his reasoning:

"Since you are here to visit the patient, you must be Maori Kogoro's relatives and friends."

"Hehehe, I know everything. You gave false testimony to protect the criminal, right?"

"Not only that, they are also suspected of being accomplices."

"If Maori's leg injury heals, he can kill people himself."

"If the broken leg hasn't healed yet, then he is an accomplice to murder."

[I am such a genius, my reasoning is impeccable and perfect! ]

Yamamura Cao was overjoyed, and in his capacity as a detective at the county headquarters, he ordered the local police:

"Catch them, catch them, catch them all and take them back for interrogation."
