"Don't quibble. You must have killed that person. There's no way anyone else could have done that except you." Natsume Hoshi stared at Suwa Yuji with a confident smile.

"No, it wasn't me, I only killed Mr. Maru!" Suwa Yuji tried his best to defend himself.

Conan's eyes trembled. Although he believed in Natsume Xing's reasoning, he always felt as if something was missing.

"You said you didn't kill her. Let's think about it. Mr. Akutsu and Mrs. Maru have no grudges against each other, and Mr. Hatano and Mrs. Maru were having an extramarital affair. They both have no motive. The only one who could have killed her is you." Kogoro Mouri agreed with him, and it was obvious that he also agreed with Natsume Hoshi's inference.

"And don't forget, Mrs. Maru also died from a knife wound, and it was a single blow that killed her. Here, Mr. Suwa is the only one who can use a samurai sword. How do you explain this?" Natsume Xing added.

"But, but I really didn't kill anyone, I didn't." Suwa Yuji shook his head vigorously. Inspector Megure behind him blocked Suwa Yuji's way to get up.

"Mr. Suwa, please come back to the bureau with me first."

Conan looked around and judged with his sixth sense as a detective that things could not be that simple. What had been missed?

The knife marks in the room were all made by Mr. Suwa, and the room was also very messy, probably caused by a fight, and Mrs. Maru's crime scene... well! The crime scene was intact, and I remember there were no other injuries on Mrs. Maru's body.

This means that Mrs. Wan did not resist. The lack of resistance means that the murderer was someone Mrs. Wan was familiar with, and she was not even on guard when the knife was held.

Also, I remember when Mrs. Maru came back... extramarital affair... I got it!

The murderer of Mrs. Maru was not Mr. Suwa, but someone else!

Conan looked over and saw Natsume Hoshi still pointing at Suwa Yuji. Conan was very anxious, but this was the only way to do it according to Natsume's plan. Uncle Mori, I'm sorry to have to trouble you.

Conan hid in the shadow behind the door, aimed his watch at Mouri Kogoro, and the anesthetic needle hit Mouri Kogoro's target-like back of the neck directly.

... Um, with this frequency of anesthesia, I don't know when the color will change.

Kogoro Mouri cooperated and sat down, entering the sleeping Kogoro mode.

The reasoning show of the sleeping Kogoro is on stage. Onlookers are requested to buy tickets.

"Natsume, your reasoning is wrong. He is not the murderer."

"What?" Natsume Hoshi looked over, very surprised. Logically speaking, the murderer should be Suwa Yuji who killed someone.

"Officer Megure, Natsume, please take a close look at the two crime scenes and see if there are any differences."

Upon hearing this, Natsume Xing observed carefully. It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but when he did, he was shocked. He seemed to understand.

"Could it be that……"

"That's right, the murderer of Mrs. Maru is actually the deceased Mr. Marudenjiro!"

"What!" Inspector Megure was a little confused. It turned out that the deceased killed another deceased.

"So that's it. It was an extramarital affair. Because you and Mr. Maori exposed Mrs. Maru's extramarital affair, Mr. Maru was furious and tried to interrogate Mrs. Maru to no avail, so he killed her directly." Natsume Xing said, suddenly realizing.

"That's right, because Mr. Maru also knows how to use a samurai sword, he was able to leave very deep wounds on Mrs. Maru. This is also a manifestation of Mr. Maru's extreme anger."

Yes, who wouldn’t be angry when finding out that they’ve been cheated on?

"So, the truth is that after Mr. Maru killed Mrs. Maru, he simply hid the body in the bushes, then went to the reception room to receive Mr. Suwa, and was eventually killed by him."

The truth of the case was finally revealed. Both people killed each other out of self-hatred. It's really sad.

Suwa Yuji smiled up at the sky, suddenly turned around, picked up a samurai sword displayed on the cabinet, rushed towards Mori Kogoro at lightning speed, and chopped him directly on the forehead.

In an instant, no one could react at all, and just when they thought Maori Kogoro was going to be split in half...

Swoosh! The blade stopped on Maori Kogoro's forehead. Under the shocked gazes of Xiaolan and Inspector Megure, Suwa Yuji slowly retracted the knife.

"You saw my sword approaching, but you didn't move at all. You are worthy of being the famous detective Mori Kogoro." Suwa Yuji bowed slightly to express his deepest respect.

Natsume Hoshi's eyes were serious. He almost wanted to knock down Suwa Yuji, but his years of organizational life and experience told him to stay calm.

But just now, he seemed to see Kogoro Mouri, who was obviously asleep, and his fingers seemed to move.

Illusion?

The case ended here, and Kogoro Mouri was inexplicably praised by Inspector Megure, and he felt very happy.

And he praised Natsume Hoshi's detective skills, saying that he was worthy of being his disciple and that his abilities were comparable to his. (Yes, yes, I am "extremely honored")

……

In the dark of night, in the house of this unfortunate collector, Fu Huashi climbed over the wall and easily broke into the interior without any effort.

Marudenjiro and Maru Ineko both passed away, and the maids hired by the mansion also went their separate ways. In the entire yard, there were only a few idiot policemen with little sense of presence left.

Fu Huashi came to the reception room and looked at the IOU from the crime scene on the ground, feeling mixed emotions.

My reasoning this time was a complete failure. What was I thinking before? I didn’t notice such an obvious clue and blindly pointed fingers at someone else. In the end, Inspector Megure looked down on me and told me to reflect on myself more. . .

Really, I still have the old habit of not observing carefully and relying on the original work. After careful reflection, it seems that the content of the original work is not very applicable now.

Especially this deceptive halo of death, is this something that all detectives possess?

Taking the key to the vault from the cabinet, Fu Huashi walked towards the vault and opened the door. There was a lot of money inside, but nothing special.

Nengmian, Nengmian, where is the Nengmian I am looking for?

Fu Hua Shi searched through the drawers one by one, and finally after a sweep, she found the white Noh mask that Hennessy mentioned. The information given matched, so this should be it.

Fu Huashi quickly cleaned up the traces at the scene and then quickly left the house. Halfway through, Fu Huashi looked at the Noh mask carefully.

How should I put it? It feels a bit ugly and a bit curious. How does this little thing relate to the secrets of the organization? What the hell? The secrets of the organization are put on the auction house?

However, thinking about what happened today, Fu Huashi suddenly had an idea.
