Conan: I can hear the murderer's voice

Conan showed an excited look behind his glasses:

"Is the client also among these eight illegitimate children?"

Heiji nodded:

"Well, but a series of strange things happened in the mansion, and the gentleman was scared and moved back to Beika Town."

"At the same time, he is afraid that something bad will happen to him, so he is ready to publicly declare that he will voluntarily give up his inheritance of the Inufu family's property."

"But he was still afraid that his life would be taken away, so he wanted someone to investigate the strange things happening in the Inubushi mansion."

"I made an appointment on the phone to visit him in the morning, and the client will tell me everything in detail."

As a detective Conan is very interested in the incident, but what interests him even more is defeating Lin Xuan.

The chances of success are always better when joining forces with Hattori Heiji than going it alone.

So Conan looked at Lin Xuan and pretended to admire him:

"As long as Brother Lin Xuan helps investigate, we will be able to find out the truth soon."

Xiaolan felt more confused.

[When did this kid become so close to his senior? ]

Hattori Heiji played the good cop as agreed on the phone:

"Idiot, Lin Xuan must be busy."

"And he may not be able to find the truth. He will probably waste several weeks and find nothing."

The two of them had planned it long ago. Conan would flatter Hattori and be responsible for questioning in order to encourage Lin Xuan to participate in the investigation.

He Ye couldn't bear to listen any longer, she couldn't help but refute Hattori:

"Stupid Heiji, are you qualified to judge Lin Xuan?"

"Don't forget that the case that happened in Osaka was only solved thanks to Lin Xuan..."

Suddenly He Ye thought of something.

[I'm still mad at Lin Xuan, how can I speak up for him? ]

He Ye immediately shut up, stood up and pretended to look at the scenery outside the window to ease the embarrassment.

"Since He Ye said so, I will go meet the client tomorrow."

Despite knowing the purpose of the two detectives, Lin Xuan still agreed.

Mind reading and other system rewards give Lin Xuan the confidence to play detective games with Conan.

Only if he solves the case before Conan can he get more rewards.

Hattori Heiji smiled knowingly at the elementary school student.

[The plan was successful, Lin Xuan was fooled]

[Gather our wisdom and we must defeat him this time]

A barely perceptible sneer appeared at the corner of Lin Xuan's mouth.

[You must investigate carefully and quickly find evidence to help me solve the case]

It was already late at night.

Although she is a love rival of Kazuha, Xiaolan, who is kind-hearted by nature, still invites the two guests from afar to stay overnight at her home.

Lin Xuan also stayed in Kogoro's bedroom on the third floor overnight. Heiji and Conan shared a room, and the two girls slept together.

The next morning, Lin Xuan had just woken up when he heard a girl's voice outside the room.

"Senior, are you awake?"

"Yeah, I just opened my eyes."

Lin Xuan put on his clothes quickly.

Kazuha's voice also came from outside the door:

"That idiot Heiji and Conan are both missing! We can't contact them by phone."

Lin Xuan was slightly puzzled but immediately reacted:

"Maybe they sneaked off to meet the client. They wanted to find the evidence before me."

He Ye frowned:

"I asked Lin Xuan to help with the investigation, but it was too rude for me to go meet the client first."

Xiaolan's mouth corners droop:

"Conan has become a bad person."

But Lin Xuan himself did not feel offended at all. Anyway, he would use his mind reading ability to take advantage of all the clues found by the two detectives.

Moreover, the light bulb left on its own initiative, which made it convenient for him to have breakfast with the two beautiful girls.

Just as Lin Xuan guessed, Conan and Heiji have arrived at the client's door.

Conan stared at the nameplate hanging outside the door - "Kudo Shinichi", which is pronounced exactly the same as Kudo Shinichi in Neon language.

Heiji scratched his hair and said to his friend with a smile:

"I should have told you last night, but I was so focused on defeating Lin Xuan that I forgot everything else."

"Kudo, let's hear what troubles Shinichi Kudo is having."

As he said that, Hattori Heiji pressed the doorbell.

However, no one responded for two full minutes.

Conan rolled his eyes at him:

“Even if you want to meet with the client in advance, you must first confirm whether the other party has time.”

Heiji came to see the client in advance in order to obtain clues and deduce the truth of the incident first.

"Fool."

Heiji took out his cell phone:

"If you don't support me, why are you following me?"

Just then, a plump middle-aged woman opened the door and leaned half of her body out:

"who are you?"

Heiji quickly introduced himself:

"I'm Hattori Heiji. I was asked by my father to ask Mr. Kudo about the situation. We have already arranged to meet today."

The woman showed a surprised expression:

"Detective? I did hear Mr. Kudo mention it, but the time is…"

Heiji quickly said:

"I don't have many friends in Mihua, so I just came here because I was bored."

The fat woman breathed a sigh of relief, and she said with some distress:

"Mr. Kudo finally fell asleep. He has been suffering from insomnia and back pain recently."

"If I don't want to be killed by the demon dog, I'll be driven crazy by insomnia and back pain."

She looked at Hattori Heiji and changed her tone to one that left no room for doubt:

"Since it is not yet the agreed time, please do not disturb my employer's rest."

Conan and Heiji were dumbfounded.

In order to meet the client before Lin Xuan, they rushed here without even having breakfast.

[I have to wait until the appointed time? What's the point of getting up so early?]

But the fat woman blocked the entrance with her body, like one man blocking the pass from ten thousand.

Heiji had no choice but to obey:

"Okay, let's come back after breakfast."

The woman changed her attitude:

"In fact, Mr. Kudo may wake up suddenly. His sleep quality has always been poor. If you have something important to discuss and want to meet him earlier, you might as well come in and wait."

"If you don't mind, I can buy you breakfast on the way."

"Of course you must not go near the study and disturb Mr. Kudo's sleep."

The aunt is a maid sent by a housekeeping company. She comes to Kudo's house to work three days a week.

Responsible for preparing food for lunch that day and helping the owner clean up.

After asking about the maid's identity, Hattori and Conan entered Kudo's house.

After eating the bread, the two detectives waited in the hall boredly for time to pass.

Soon, only half an hour was left before the agreed time, and Heiji said helplessly:

"Lin Xuan, He Ye should be here soon. Our actions are in vain."

Conan also gave a wry smile.

Just then, a sharp alarm suddenly rang from the study.

Both Heiji and Conan had happy expressions on their faces.

[It turns out that Mr. Kudo set the alarm in advance! 】

[We can still communicate with the client before Lin Xuan arrives]

[Maybe we can get a decisive clue from the client! ]

However, the alarm rang for three full minutes without stopping, and no one came out of the study.

The experienced detectives realized that something was wrong and they immediately came to the door.

"Mr. Kudo? Mr. Kudo!"

Hattori Heiji pushed the door open while calling out the client's name.

However, the door did not move at all, as if it was welded to the wall.
