Conan: I can hear the murderer's voice

Chapter 166 The Killer Hiding in the Crowd

In order to be able to participate in the investigation, Conan even found a father for himself.

Mao Li was very pleased with the flattery, and the famous detective asked the client for his opinion:

"What the little devil said makes some sense."

"I want to take my daughter and this guy who's been eating and drinking with me for free."

The middle-aged president, who looked afraid of death, said quickly:

"As long as you can find the killer Silver Fox and protect me, I will pay for all your expenses."

Ever since Huibara was saved by Lin Xuan last time, Conan can no longer brag about himself or belittle Lin Xuan in front of the children.

Otherwise, Xiao Ai's ferocious eyes would immediately pierce you.

What made Conan even more depressed was that even the doctor started to defend Lin Xuan out of gratitude.

[They all forget that Kudo Shinichi is also a famous detective who can solve cases on his own]

[Finally I can get away from Lin Xuan. I want to show my skills in this case.]

However, the next day, when the Maori family arrived at the ticket office at the foot of the mountain.

When Conan saw Lin Xuan and Sato wearing couple outfits, his mood sank to the bottom again.

[Lin Xuan, the lingering ghost, why are you here too? 】

Seeing the senior and the policewoman snuggling together, as if they were an inseparable whole, Xiaolan couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat.

[Has Officer Sato succeeded? ]

[My chest hurts, I am unwilling to accept this]

Lin Xuan quickly pulled Sato to explain to Xiaolan:

"Inspector Megure thought this was a good opportunity to arrest Silver Fox, so he asked me and Officer Sato to pretend to be a couple."

The high school girl breathed a sigh of relief, as if the whole world had become a better place in an instant.

Sato frowned slightly and asked Lin Xuan pitifully:

"What do you mean by pretend couple? Just because I'm older, I'm not qualified to be a real couple with you?"

As Sato said this, he pulled Lin Xuan's left arm hard in a provocative manner, allowing the detective to clearly feel the changes in the shapes of the two soft pineapples.

Xiaolan was not willing to be outdone and stared at Lin Xuan with wide eyes:

"Senior, do you prefer Officer Sato?"

The eyes of the cold female police officer and the cute female high school student were equally passionate, urging Lin Xuan to make a decision.

Lin Xuan couldn't give up anyone.

[Only children do multiple-choice questions. You are all my wings]

Conan, who had always been the center of attention, couldn't help but feel secretly delighted.

[Humph, a man who has multiple relationships at the same time, do you really think he can balance every relationship? ]

[Xiaolan will see your true face one day, and then she will definitely come back to me]

It was the president who was afraid of being killed who spoke up to rescue Lin Xuan from the Shura Field. The middle-aged man lowered his voice and asked:

"Police officer? Pretending to be a couple? What's going on?"

Sato put aside his jealousy with his love rival and explained the situation to the unlucky president:

"The police chief sent me to protect your safety and find an opportunity to arrest Silver Fox. Don't worry, Lin Xuan and I look like a couple and will never let anyone know."

The agency president had a complicated expression on his face, but he quickly changed it to a grateful expression:

"Then please."

Conan did not ignore the client's fleeting abnormality.

[People who are afraid of death should be happy to have criminal police protecting them]

[This president's expression is not right]

Conan could only notice that the expression was abnormal.

Lin Xuan directly determined through his inner voice that there was something wrong with the president who pretended to be afraid.

[Damn it! I didn’t expect the note to stick to me like a dog-skin plaster]

[Killing the Silver Fox will become more difficult. Never mind. Just adapt to the situation.]

Lin Xuan couldn't help but look at him with admiration.

[The president is not actually afraid, but is ready to kill the serial killer himself]

[Even want to turn the famous detective into a tool]

Before they bought their tickets, a dark-skinned young man approached them.

Sato, Maori, Conan and the president who was targeted by the killer suddenly became nervous.

After all, no one knows the appearance, age and gender of the silver fox.

The only thing that is certain is that the killer will kill the president today.

"There are so many unfamiliar faces. Is this your first time climbing this mountain?"

"I am a student at Mihua University. I have been climbing mountains and exercising with my elders since junior high school."

"If you run into trouble on the road, I can help you. I'll contact the hut first and ask the administrator to prepare food in advance."

There is a safe house near the top of the mountain for climbers to rest and shelter from the wind and rain.

The administrators staying in the safe house will also provide tourists with food to replenish their energy.

After saying a few words, the college student walked skillfully to a telephone booth in the distance.

Telecom operators rarely build base stations in remote mountainous areas. There is no signal in many deep mountains and forests, and the only way to contact the safe houses in the mountains is by phone.

When Conan saw the college student pick up the receiver with his left hand, his eyes immediately flashed with excitement.

[Like the killer, both are left-handed]

[Although there is no other evidence, be careful when he approaches the client]

After buying the tickets, everyone set out to climb the mountain.

In addition to the dark-skinned college student, they also met a corporate slave in his forties who looked listless.

A man with long hair who claims to be a writer.

And another couple who were carrying huge mountaineering bags and deliberately keeping a distance from Lin Xuan and his group.

Sato hugged Lin Xuan's arm and put his ear close to his ear, whispering like a real couple:

"Silver Fox will definitely take action today. Who among the five of them is more suspicious?"

Lin Xuan stroked Sato's back and shook his head gently:

"It's hard to say without evidence."

Lin Xuanyou listened to the thoughts of the five mountaineering tourists, and none of them expressed any suspicious thoughts at the time.

But mind reading is passive listening, not active reading.

Therefore, the climbers cannot be ruled out as suspects.

Lin Xuan's body had been strengthened many times, so even though the mountain road was rugged, it did not consume much physical strength.

But the rest of the team needed a break.

In this way, sometimes Lin Xuan and his group walked in the front, and sometimes other climbers were ahead.

Everything went peacefully for three hours, during which time no one approached the president.

This made Kogoro wonder whether the killer should give up his action.

But a sudden scream not far away reminded the detectives and criminal police that the incident had already happened!

Lin Xuan Conan rushed over immediately. The one who made the frightened scream came from the depressed company employee.

The office worker was standing next to a small cliff, about twenty meters away from the bottom of the cliff.

Next to the bloody rock at the bottom of the cliff lay the body of the college student with only half of his head left.

It seemed that the college student accidentally fell from above and hit the rock, breaking his head.

In the blink of an eye, there were only four of the five suspicious climbers left.

"You guy! You must be the Silver Fox! The serial killer!"

The targeted president was like an enraged beast. He roared and rushed towards the office slave, knocked him to the ground with one punch, and was about to continue the violence while riding on him.

"President! Please calm down!"

"It looks more like an accident."

Sato and Kogoro rushed over to separate the two.

Lin Xuan also confirmed again through his mind's voice that the company employee who was knocked down by the fist had no idea what was going on.
