Conan: I can hear the murderer's voice

Lin Xuan agreed without hesitation.

Ever since he mastered the ability to appraise treasures, he has wanted to meet the phantom thief who has the police under his thumb.

And regardless of whether Kidd can be caught or not, Jirokichi will not let the detective make a wasted trip.

However, the notice that Kidd sent clearly stated that he would not visit the art museum until next Friday, while events happen every day in Beika Town.

Two days later in the evening, Inspector Megure brought his immediate superior, Officer Matsumoto, to Kudo's residence to visit Lin Xuan.

The conspicuous knife wound on his left eye made Matsumoto Kiyonaga look stern and scary, but he was particularly enthusiastic in front of Lin Xuan.

The manager of the Investigation Division 1 smiled, and Matsumoto took the initiative to extend his hand and said:

"Brother Lin Xuan, I have long heard of your great name, and today I finally have the opportunity to meet you."

"The previous serial explosions were all thanks to your help."

Lin Xuan is not stupid.

[It has been some time since the explosion]

[The bonus from the Metropolitan Police Department has already been received. Manager Matsumoto is visiting me now. He must be asking me for something else.]

He shook hands with Matsumoto Seicho politely and asked:

"The two leaders of the Investigation Division 1 came to see me at this time. I think they have something to discuss."

The administrator touched the shocking scar on his left eye, and then told Lin Xuan an event that happened twenty years ago.

At that time, the young police officer Matsumoto chased a whistling serial killer to the dock. Unexpectedly, the murderer pulled out a Ribonu knife and attacked Matsumoto. His left eye was seriously injured at that time.

But despite being injured, Matsumoto still managed to grab the weapon and slash the murderer with a knife.

"Twenty years have passed, and the statute of limitations for the serial murder case is about to expire."

Matsumoto Kiyoshi sneered, making his face look even more terrifying:

"I didn't expect that this scar would start to ache again just before the expiration date. It's like a reminder that I must not let that bastard get away!"

Megure explained to Lin Xuan why they were here:

"Brother Lin Xuan, the administrator wants to use your wisdom to arrest the murderer before the pursuit period expires."

Lin Xuan was speechless.

[It is you police officers who wasted more than 20 years and failed to find out the truth. What does it have to do with me? ]

Lin Xuan has helped the police solve several complex and brain-burning cases, but he will not let himself become a tool of the police.

Otherwise, with so many unsolved cases, Lin Xuan would be exhausted to death.

The high school detective was about to decline politely, but Inspector Megure's voice made him change his mind.

[Mori-san should have taken Conan and Ran to Shodo Kurumi's house]

[They don’t know about the serial killer yet, hope they don’t get into danger]

Realizing that this incident was related to the god of death, Lin Xuan's attitude immediately took a 180-degree turn.

Only by deducing the truth in front of Conan can he gain new skills.

At the same time, Lin Xuan would not stand by and watch Xiaolan die even though he knew she was in danger.

The administrator took a photo from his briefcase and placed it on the table:

"This is the wealthy Ms. Shodo Kurumi. She is blind, but she bought a lottery ticket last week and won 100 million yen."

Although the lady in the photo has taken good care of herself, time has left traces on her face. She is at least 35 years old.

"In an interview with the media, Ms. Zhuang Tang said she wanted to give the lottery ticket to her first love when she was a child."

"Although she is blind, she remembers that her first love was seriously injured when he tried to save her when she was a child, leaving a large 'I'-shaped scar that stretched from one armpit to the other."

Lin Xuan, who was intrigued, had already come to the conclusion by listening to the words of Manager Matsumoto:

"So this wealthy auntie decided to use her scars to find her missing first love, her savior."

"Once the interview is released, there will definitely be people with scars who want to defraud money and try to take advantage of the situation."

"The management officer feels that the serial killer from 20 years ago might have approached Ms. Shodo for the 100 million yen."

Matsumoto Kiyonaga's face was full of surprise, and he was glad that he came to Lin Xuan for help.

[He can deduce these things in an instant. He is indeed a genius favored by the top management! ]

[With Lin Xuan's help, we will definitely be able to catch that bastard before the statute of limitations expires! ]

Inspector Megure was no longer surprised. He continued to explain the situation:

"We just received news that even Zhuang Tang herself can't tell who her first love is."

"So in the afternoon she and the housekeeper went to the Maori Detective Agency and hired Brother Maori to help."

Next, Megure changed his tone to a negotiation:

"Should we first have Takagi Chiba keep an eye on the Shodou family's villa and inform Brother Maori to secretly investigate those suspicious men with scars on their bodies?"

Lin Xuan said directly:

"That's not necessary. Just find a car to take me to Zhuang Tang's house. I will find the murderer tonight."

After all, Kudo Shinichi was also a famous detective. If he couldn't arrive quickly and solve the case before Conan, Lin Xuan would have to wait until next time to gain new abilities.

Manager Matsumoto still has some concerns:

"Mauri entered the mansion as a detective and may have alerted the enemy."

"If any other detectives entered the Zhuangtang residence tonight, the murderer might have done something extreme in desperation."

Twenty years ago, the administrator had a fight with a serial killer. He almost lost an eye and he will never forget how cruel the killer's methods were.

However, Lin Xuan said indifferently:

"Don't worry, as long as you show up as Xiaolan's boyfriend, the murderer won't suspect you."

As he spoke, Lin Xuan took out his mobile phone, found a familiar contact name, clicked it, and typed the kana characters.

At the same time, Zhuangtangzhai Restaurant.

Sitting on both sides of the long table were the Mori family, the villa owner, Shodo Kurumi, the bespectacled butler Hotani Taisuke, and two special guests who were as hostile as fire and water.

They all read the news reports and claimed to be the wealthy woman's childhood love who wanted to claim the lottery ticket worth 100 million yen.

The man with brown hair and a square face was named Nanmu, and he had scars across his back.

His competitor, Mr. Halftime, has dark skin, black dreadlocks, and scars across his chest.

The scars of both of them matched the description given by Ms. Zhuang Tang during the interview. After all, it happened almost 30 years ago and she is blind, so Ms. Zhuang Tang claims that she could not recognize her first love.

That's why the rich woman hired Maori to help.

Nanmu and Banchang seemed to want to prove that they were not fakes, and they kept mocking each other during the meal:

"You actually destroyed Miss Walnut's childhood memories for money. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"

"Oh, you're describing yourself, right? Obviously, I'm Miss Kurumi's first love."

The atmosphere in the restaurant became depressing due to the constant quarrel between the two people, and even the kind-hearted butler couldn't help but frown slightly.

Just then, Xiaolan's cell phone vibrated slightly.

When she turned on the screen and saw the text sent by her senior, the girl's face instantly flushed.
