Conan: I can hear the murderer's voice

The next day, Conan canceled the team building of the Junior Detective League, took his equipment and ambushed behind a telephone pole, secretly observing the situation of the house.

Just a few minutes later, a black car stopped in front of the house.

The man was walking briskly with his briefcase in hand, looking like a completely different person compared to the weak appearance he showed yesterday when he had to push himself to stand up.

[There is something wrong with this couple! ]

Conan saw the old man getting into a car, so he started his solar skateboard and followed behind.

[What is your purpose in coming to Beika Town? If you want to commit a crime, I will never let you succeed! ]

Earlier in Gunma Prefecture, the stupid detective inadvertently pointed out the biggest difference between Lin Xuan and other detectives.

Kudo Hattori always has to wait until the murderer has killed almost all the victims before he can solve the case, but Lin Xuan is able to find out the truth before the criminal continues to commit crimes.

Conan wanted to prove that he also had the ability to resolve the incident before it happened, so he paid so much attention to the elderly couple who bought a single-family house.

But even a famous detective could not have imagined that the suspects were his own parents, let alone that the person driving the car was actually Lin Xuan.

Kudo Yusaku looked at the image reflected in the rearview mirror and said with emotion:

"I didn't expect you to know Conan so well. He really caught up with us."

If Lin Xuan hadn't reminded him, Yousaku wouldn't have realized that he was being followed.

At this moment, Lin Xuan had a fluffy beard on his face, and even his skin color had become dark. Kudo Yukiko had made him look completely different.

Lin Xuan responded casually:

"I just happened to have worked with this kid on a few cases."

Yusaku still did not forget to win over Lin Xuan:

"I heard from my friends in the Metropolitan Police Department that you have solved many cases in Liben recently. You are even regarded as the savior of the police by the top brass. You are really young and capable!"

"Remember the Kudo Shinichi I mentioned to you before..."

Of course Lin Xuan knew that Conan was Shinichi, but Yusaku thought he didn't know.

Lin Xuan didn't want to break this window paper yet, so he interrupted directly:

"Unfortunately, I'm not interested in the other detectives' situations. After all, I could easily solve the case even if I were alone."

"Mr. Kudo will not object to the terms I agreed with your ladyship, right?"

Yusaku was speechless.

[Even if you want to win him over, don't rush. After all, it's hard to believe that a high school student has turned into an elementary school student. Saying it directly might backfire.]

[But as long as we have a good relationship with him, there is still a chance to use him to help Shinichi deal with the organization]

So the mystery novelist nodded and said:

"My wife and I have been living in the United States for a long time, and Shinichi is not in Beihua either. It would be best if you could help take care of the mansion."

Lin Xuan was ecstatic:

"Thank you very much for letting me stay here."

【Finally I have the opportunity to live in that classical European-style building! 】

In fact, with just one phone call, he could move to the Sonoko family's big villa.

The reason why Lin Xuan proposed to Yukiko to let her stay with him was because of Haibara Ai who lived in the professor's house next door.

[Being a neighbor to Xiao Ai, are you still worried that you won't have the chance to interact with her in the future? 】

Lin Xuan, who has riding skills, drove the car like a flash of lightning through the traffic and quickly took Yusaku to his destination, an antique shop in Chinatown.

Yusaku wanted to get inspiration from the owner's personal experience. The two were talking at the counter. Lin Xuan, who had a bored expression, reminded himself:

[It's boring but you have to hold it in. As long as you cooperate with them to scare the kids, you can get the key to Kudo's house]

Just then, a small figure sneaked in from the back door.

Conan Edogawa moved tiptoe among the piles of sundries, while secretly observing the suspicious people near the counter.

【What are the three of them discussing? 】

[Could it be a contraband transaction? ]

Conan continued to move forward, trying to hear more clearly.

In order to investigate the suspicious old man, he made preparations last night.

The leg-strengthening shoes that had kicked down several large trees were fully charged in advance, and the football belt and watch-shaped anesthetic gun were also loaded with the maximum amount of "ammunition".

Conan, now dressed in divine armor, is more reckless than ever.

[Even if discovered, you can easily create chaos and escape by launching an infinitely expanding football]

Thinking of this, Conan became more and more presumptuous, and the distance between him and Lin Xuan and others was no more than ten meters!

Lin Xuan didn't tolerate it either.

[You can only go here, not beyond]

He picked up the crossbow that the shop owner had hung on the wall, installed the crossbow arrows, and fired!

"Buzz!"

The arrow flew out in an instant, tearing through the air and accurately piercing through the tuft of hair on Conan's head, and finally nailed to the wall.

Conan couldn't help but touch his head. After confirming that he was still alive, he began to tremble involuntarily, and even the hair on his body stood up.

Apart from being hit with a club at the amusement park, he had never had another near-death experience.

[If the crossbow arrow had been one centimeter lower, my head would have exploded! ]

In Conan's eyes, the bearded man operating the crossbow looked like the god of death coming to claim his life!

The detective who had been so confident a minute ago no longer hesitated, he lowered his head and ran away.

Rushing out from the back door of the antique shop, Conan immediately started the solar skateboard and escaped.

[If there is a risk of overhearing the conversation, they will kill people to silence them! Even children are not spared]

[These criminals are far more dangerous than I thought! ]

Inside the antique shop, Kudo Yuu said to Lin Xuan in a reproachful tone:

"Even if Conan sneaked in, there's no need for him to use something so dangerous."

[It was a close call. Our family almost became extinct.]

But Lin Xuan said confidently:

"Don't worry, my accuracy with a crossbow is just as good as my gun."

Firearms skills not only greatly improved Lin Xuan's marksmanship, but also greatly improved the accuracy of other shooting weapons. At least he would never miss within a range of ten meters.

While Conan was running away on his skateboard, he called Takagi:

"Officer Takagi, there's an antique shop that's very suspicious, and there's an elderly couple who just moved to Beika Town..."

"I hope the police can investigate their background. The addresses of the antique shop and the single-family house are xxx and *** respectively."

Conan was used to issuing orders by pretending to be an imperial decree, and he thought that this time the police would definitely act according to his instructions.

However, Gao Mu's embarrassed voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Conan, from your description they do sound suspicious, but they may not be the criminals."

"Without solid evidence, it's difficult for me to investigate."

Cases occur every day in Beika Town, and police resources are very precious.

Before, Takagi almost became Conan's little brother, because the kid was Mouri Kogoro's detective assistant, and even Kudo Shinichi occasionally helped the police by making inferences through Conan.

However, the cases that have been giving the police a headache recently were all solved with the help of Lin Xuan, and had nothing to do with Kogoro. The several reasonings given by brother Kudo were actually wrong answers that misled the police.

In this situation, if Takagi breaks the rules again and obeys the elementary school student, he will definitely be scolded if his superiors or seniors find out.
