Conan: I can hear the murderer's voice

Chapter 108 You are the murderer!

The rural police officers listened to the county headquarters detective Yamamura Cao, and Yamamura Cao obeyed Lin Xuan's words. In the ward, Lin Xuan said that he would check according to Dr. Shirai's advice.

This made the murderer extremely inflated, and he thought he had the detective and the criminal police in his hands.

He was no longer on guard and examined Kogoro Mouri's body carefully as if no crime had ever happened.

"Mr. Maori, your leg only needs about ten more days to heal before the plaster can be removed."

"As for being knocked unconscious by a surprise attack from behind, there is a big bump on my head but it's nothing serious."

As soon as the attending physician finished examining the patient, Lin Xuan brought the police officers back to the ward.

Only Lin Xuan's expression was no different from before. The police officers all glared at Shirai fiercely.

Before dawn, Shirai felt uneasy again and he swallowed nervously.

Trying to calm down, the murderer was about to speak probingly, but Yamamura Cao had already spoken:

"Dr. Shirai, you are in danger of killing Dr. Oe. Please come with us to the police station."

Fear and surprise made Shirai's hair stand up. In order to prevent his trembling hands from being seen, the prisoner had to hide his hands in the pockets of his white coat.

[What happened? Why did the police identify me as the murderer? ]

[Could it be that guy betrayed me? ]

[No, it's impossible. He has no reason to do this.]

The police officer from the local police station took out a silver bracelet and was about to help Shirai put it on.

Shirai finally reacted and he took a few steps back until his back hit the cold wall.

The prisoner knew that he could not be a match for so many policemen. He looked at Lin Xuan, who was being used by him, and asked:

"Why should you arrest me?"

In fact, not only Shirai, but also the Mori father and daughter who stayed in the room were equally confused at the moment.

Lin Xuan said something that stirred up a storm in the prisoner's heart:

"Because you are the murderer of Dr. Oe."

"The old dean is about to retire, and he needs to choose a successor between you and Dr. Dajiang."

"The victim was more capable in every aspect, so you killed your competitor in order to inherit the hospital."

Shirai was even more terrified when Lin Xuan accurately pointed out his motive for the crime, but he still defended himself:

"It's true that Dajiang and I have a rivalry, but I won't kill anyone for it!"

In order to clear himself, Shirai began to attack the high school detective:

"Didn't you say before that you wanted to present evidence? Was that just a high-sounding cliché?"

"If you want to accuse me of being a criminal, you have to produce evidence!"

"It's ridiculous for a high school kid to pretend to play a detective game!"

[It's no use suspecting me, you can't find any evidence]

Shancun Cao was furious:

"You actually insulted the famous detective? What are you still standing there for! Arrest him!"

His superiors had reminded him that if he could not gain Lin Xuan's forgiveness he would have to pack up and leave.

Shancun Cao must perform well to let Lin Xuan know that he realizes his mistake.

Soon, the prisoner was surrounded by police officers in a corner of the ward.

Shirai was dumbfounded:

[The police officer does not play by the rules at all]

[You can arrest people without evidence? ]

The murderer protested loudly:

"Why should you arrest me?"

"My lawyer will not let you off if you treat taxpayers like this!"

"I'm not the murderer! I didn't kill anyone! It's unfair!"

But Police Officer Liben didn't bother to pay any attention to him.

Instead, it was Lin Xuan who stopped them from arresting Shirai directly. He smiled and said:

"Whether it's reasoning or arresting someone, we need evidence. Since the murderer refuses to accept it, let me reveal the full picture of this case."

Lin Xuan took out the police intercom borrowed from Shancuncao and pressed a button:

"Conan, are you ready?"

A helpless and tired voice came from the intercom:

"Uncle, Sister Lan, have you seen me? I'm in the opposite ward."

Conan was in a very low mood. He thought that Lin Xuan was being fooled by the criminal and he finally had a chance to win in the reasoning.

However, Lin Xuan was just teasing the prisoner just now, and Conan was going to be his supporting actor again.

The Maori father and daughter looked across, and although the distance was too far and the scene was a little blurry, they could still see Conan standing in the room and waving at them.

Kogoro noticed something was wrong, and he confirmed with Yamamura Sou:

"Where's the body?"

The case occurred in the middle of the night, and given the efficiency of the local police station, they would have to wait until dawn to start moving the body.

Not only the body of the deceased in the room opposite, but even the large bloodstains on the ground had disappeared.

The county headquarters detective touched his head awkwardly. Even though Lin Xuan had explained it, Yamamura Cao still couldn't understand how the murderer had carried out the scheme.

Lin Xuan issued a new instruction via the intercom:

"You can turn on the lights now."

In an instant, Conan in the opposite room disappeared.

The victim's body and a large pool of blood on the ground reappeared, and the forensic police officer stood in front of the light switch in the room with a walkie-talkie in hand.

Xiaolan thought she was hallucinating, she rubbed her eyes hard, but when she opened her eyes, she saw the same scene.

【Why did Conan disappear in an instant? 】

Lin Xuan ordered again:

"Turn off the lights."

The officer moved his finger to the light switch.

The next second, police officer, the body and large amount of blood at the crime scene disappeared.

Conan reappeared in the room and waved at them.

Kogoro is a detective after all, and he finally reacted after seeing the obvious clues:

"Is it a mirror? A trick using the mirror!"

But Xiaolan still didn't understand. She looked confused and asked Lin Xuan for help:

"Senior, what's going on?"

Lin Xuan patiently explained to her:

"There are no other strong light sources near the rural hospital, and the inpatient department is still a one-story U-shaped building."

"In the dark of night, just open the window, and the window glass and the black wall can temporarily form a mirror, reflecting the scenes happening in other rooms!"

Kogoro said belatedly:

"So that's how it is. The scenes I saw late at night every day actually happened in other rooms!"

[No wonder I always come up empty-handed every time I rush over]

Lin Xuan nodded and continued to explain:

"Not only that, even your waking up in the middle of the night is carefully planned."

"When Conan and I were woken up on the first night, we discovered that the lamp on the bedside table in the ward had been converted into a hidden alarm clock."

"And when you take certain medications, even if the alarm goes off, you still have to sleep a few minutes longer before you wake up, and by then the lamp on the bedside table has long stopped ringing."

Kogoro Mouri looked at Shirai, who prescribed medicine for him, with suspicion. This was the first time he doubted his attending physician since he was hospitalized.

[Damn it, they actually saw through my trick! ]

Although she was terrified, Shirai could still defend herself as long as the detective had no evidence:

"Ridiculous! I don't know anything about mirrors."

"And what's the point of me going to so much trouble to prank Mr. Maori?"

Lin Xuan shook his head and said:

"This is no idle prank for you,"

"You didn't hesitate to kill Dr. Oe in order to smoothly inherit the hospital, and you needed someone to take the blame for you."

"You took advantage of Kogoro Mori's respect for life and sense of justice to make him a scapegoat."
