Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World
Chapter 358: Murder in the Sky Gallery: The Real and Fake Kudo Shinichi Duo Revealed
Kaito Kid, dressed as Kudo Shinichi, seemed to sense the burning gaze of Mao Lilan, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously. He turned around, with a charming smile on his face, and called softly: "Xiao Lan!"
Mao Lilan thought of the plan that Kudo Yuki had secretly told her before, and secretly encouraged herself. She quickly walked in front of Kaito Kid, pouted angrily, and asked angrily: "Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming?"
"S-Sorry, I'm really pressed for time and don't have time to contact you."
"But you have time to contact Conan, but no time to call me?"
Conan crouched down, hiding behind Kaito Kid, picked up the bow voice changer and put it close to his mouth, and said in a panic: "Xiaolan, I'm really sorry. I thought I could catch Kaito Kid quickly and go back to find you immediately. I thought I wouldn't run into you here, so I didn't contact you specifically."
"Aren't we dating? How could you do this!"
Suzuki Sonoko stood aside, her hands clasped tightly in front of her chest, her face flushed with excitement, and she kept encouraging herself in her heart: "Come on, Xiaolan! Don't let him fool you!"
That look seemed even more exciting than when he was in love.
Kaito Kid put his hands in his pockets handsomely, leaned slightly sideways, his cheeks flushed with shyness, imitated Conan's mouth shape, and whispered softly: "Xiaolan, don't you understand? As long as I see you, I don't want to leave, I just want to stay with you. But there are still many cases waiting for me to solve, so I can only hide this thought for now."
When Mao Lilan heard this, she felt a surge of heat rushing up her cheeks, and her face suddenly became hot. She lowered her head, tugged at the corners of her clothes with both hands, and murmured softly: "You...you only know how to say nice things."
Kaito Kidd turned around shyly and walked away quickly.
Conan followed closely and turned away, still muttering, "Really? Don't let me say such things, idiot."
Mao Lilan saw Conan speaking with the bow-tie voice changer in his hand, and she suddenly realized what was going on. The temperature on her cheeks rose a little, her eyes were full of surprise and shyness, and she called softly: "Shinichi..."
Suzuki Sonoko stroked her chin and thought to herself: "This kid's performance today was unexpected. It seems he has made progress."
Kudo Yuki stood not far away, taking in all of this, her lips slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile, and whispered teasingly: "It's really worth coming here today, I didn't expect to be able to enjoy such a wonderful confession scene."
Shushu lay in his pocket, his two chubby paws clinging to the edge, his eyes rolling around in excitement, muttering happily: "Xiaoxue, I've finally opened my eyes. This is the first time I've seen such an exciting 'big melon'!"
Kudo Yuki responded telepathically: "Shu Shu, I have to go solve the case, you just stay here and play for a while.
She looked at Mao Lilan and said cheerfully, "Xiao Lan, I'm going to go to the scene to help first, we'll talk later."
After saying this, he turned around and walked quickly towards the crime scene.
When Kudo Yuki found Kaito Kid and Conan, what caught her eye was Kaito Kid making an OK gesture to Conan with a smug look on his face. The corners of his mouth seemed to be saying: "How is it? I've got it done!"
Conan looked up at the ceiling helplessly, holding his forehead with his hand, as if he didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Kaito Kid's performance. He responded silently with his eyes: [It was too "excellent", it really made me angry.]
Kudo Yuki took out her phone and quickly sent a text message to Kuroba Kaito:
Little boy, I have a shocking news for you. Your father, Kuroba Toichi, and Shinichi and I's father, Kudo Yusaku, are twin brothers. Kudo Yusaku was raised by his mother, while Kuroba Toichi lived with his father. In terms of kinship, you are Shinichi and I's cousin.
Don't be too surprised yet, we'll talk about other questions later.
The phone in Kaito Kid's pocket vibrated. He was slightly startled, took out his phone, unlocked the screen, and what came into his sight was a text message from Kudo Yuki.
Conan moved closer curiously, and their heads were so close that they were almost touching.
Kaito Kidd's expression changed from initial confusion to shock in an instant, with disbelief written all over his face, and he blurted out: "This... How is this possible?"
Conan was also shocked by the news. He frowned and stared at the phone screen. His eyes behind the lenses flashed with thought: "Sister Xue wouldn't joke about this kind of thing. It seems that our relationship is far more complicated than I thought."
Kaito Kid scratched his head, a bitter smile appeared on his face: "No wonder I felt inexplicably close to you and Sister Xue when I first saw you, and I always felt that the three of us looked a bit alike. So this is the relationship."
Conan pushed his glasses and his expression became serious: "Don't say anything yet, we'll look into this matter in detail later. The most urgent task is to solve this case and help you clear the suspicion."
Kaito Kidd returned to his usual carefree self, with a casual smile on his face: "Of course, with the help of a famous detective like you, plus my wisdom, this case will definitely be solved easily!"
As the two were talking, Bai Ma Tan walked over calmly. His eyes scanned the two of them and asked, "What are you talking about so intently?"
Kaito Kid quickly put his phone back into his pocket with his usual smile on his face: "Nothing, just discussing the clues of this case, Hakuba Detective, what did you find?"
Hakuba raised his eyebrows slightly and stared at Kaito Kidd, trying to find a flaw in his answer: "There is no substantial progress for the time being. However, I am curious about what you think, who is most likely to be the murderer?"
Kudo Yuki stood aside, watching Hakuba watching the two of them interacting with interest, pursed her lips and smiled slightly, breaking the deadlock: "Ah, three great detectives, do you have any new ideas?"
Hakuba turned around after hearing the sound, stroked his chin, and looked at Kaito Kid again. "Before I ask them about the details, I want to ask you first, based on your inference, who is most likely to be the murderer?"
Kudo Yuki's heart moved, and she moved in front of Conan without leaving a trace to provide some cover for her younger brother.
Conan took the opportunity to walk to the side and whispered into the bow voice changer in his hand, making the sound come from the direction of Kaito Kid.
Kaito Kid pretended to be thinking seriously about the truth of the case, and slowly said: "Based on the current situation, Mr. Kase, the head of the technical department who was beside President Yoshida when the power went out, is the most suspicious.
However, the president's wife, Ms. Caiyue, and the secretary, Mr. Uechi, are also suspects. Have you noticed? The perfumes on those two people are exactly the same. Maybe there is an unusual relationship between them. "
Bai Ba Tan pulled the corner of his mouth with a smile, his eyebrows slightly raised, and a hint of provocation flashed in his eyes: "Is that all? I thought you, who are called the savior of the island police, would have more exciting insights."
Conan was beside Kaito Kid and quickly whispered to the Bowtie Voice Changer, "Hey, don't be provoked by him."
Kaito Kid put one hand on his waist and continued, "Oh, yes. There is actually another possibility. If President Yoshida committed suicide, there would be a pistol next to his body. Under normal circumstances, it would be easy to assume that he committed suicide..."
When Kudo Yuki heard this, she realized that Kaito Kid's train of thought seemed to have deviated from the previous discussion between her and Conan, and he was not on the same rhythm as Conan. She was afraid that Hakuba Tan would seize the opportunity to ask further questions.
So he quickly answered before Hakuba Detective: "Shinichi, you didn't forget, did you? That pistol is equipped with a silencer. Hakuba Detective, are you going to point this out?"
A hint of recognition flashed across Hakuba's eyes, and he whispered softly, "Yes, Miss Kudo's reaction is indeed fast enough. It is difficult to commit suicide by pointing a silenced pistol at the temple, judging from the body movements.
Moreover, even if he really committed suicide in this way, there would definitely be scorch marks on his temple from the contact with the muzzle of the gun. Besides, if he chose suicide with all his heart, there would be no reason to install a silencer. Therefore, this can only be murder, Kudo Shinichi, what do you think? "
He once again pointed the finger at Kaito Kidd.
Conan was nervous for a moment and responded directly: "Ah, so..."
Bai Ma Tan immediately made a gesture to keep quiet, "Shh, I'm talking to him, please don't interrupt."
He put his hand over Conan's mouth.
Conan could only make a "wuwuwu" sound, and his hands and feet kept gesticulating, looking very funny.
Hakuba turned a deaf ear to Conan's words, frowned slightly, suspicion surged in his cold eyes, staring at Kaito Kid, and opened his thin lips slightly: "Then let me change the question, are you really Kudo Shinichi?"
Kaito Kidd's mind raced and he remembered how Kudo Yuki had dealt with a similar situation before.
Instantly, his face was replaced with Kudo Shinichi's signature brilliant smile, and a cunning flashed in his eyes: "Hey, Detective Hakuba, didn't I tell you that I was just testing you to see if the famous detective could detect this small mistake in reasoning? Why, this little test has confused you?"
"So you want to say that you deliberately said it wrong?" Bai Batan's eyes were full of suspicion, "But there is no way to prove this matter. Even whether you are the high school detective is very suspicious in itself. It is completely hard to believe!"
He took a step forward, looking more imposing.
Kaito Kid and Hakuba Tani looked at each other and calmly told the story: "Mr. Murohashi, who was shot dead in the first-class compartment B on the Suzuki Express, used the same reasoning as you just said.
If someone were to commit suicide by pointing a silencer at their temple, there would be burn marks on their temple. And there is really no reason for someone who is planning to commit suicide to install a silencer. The news on the Internet is very detailed.
Moreover, at that time, Kaito Kid had already sent out a notice that he would take away the gems that were planned to be exhibited on that train. Because of the murder, the entire exhibition was forced to be cancelled.
If he is the White Horse Detective who pays special attention to the word Kidd as the legend says, there is no way he has not read the news. Isn't this a way to prove my identity?"
"Let's just say so." Although Bai Ma Tan said this, the doubt in his eyes had not completely disappeared.
At this time, Officer Nakamori, who was not far away, shouted impatiently to them, "Hey, why don't you guys come over and listen to the recorded statement?"
"I'll be there right away!" Bai Batan responded, then turned and ran towards Officer Nakamori with quick steps and a bit of impatience.
Conan looked at Hakuba's back and muttered, "It's too dangerous. I told you not to talk nonsense."
Kaito Kid leaned down slightly and responded in a low voice: "Hey, did I scare you?"
"Come to think of it, you were on that train as well."
"Yes, I just suddenly remembered this matter, so I took the opportunity to test Bai Ma."
When Kudo Yuki saw Hakuba Tan looking behind him again, she looked back with a smile.
The white horse detective realized that he had been discovered, seemed a little embarrassed, and quickened his pace and ran away.
Kudo Yuki turned around and teased, "Shinichi, why did you think of imitating my temper to test Hakuba Tan?"
Kaito Kid scratched his head and said with a silly smile: "Hehe, I see that you usually deal with various situations with ease, so I thought I would imitate you, maybe I can get away with it."
The three of them talked as they walked towards the place where their confessions were to be recorded, their steps hurried, with a search for the truth.
When they arrived, Suzuki Jirokichi looked around the room, trying to find some clues. He stroked his chin and asked, "Oh, is this the room that the Yoshida Industry staff used when they added this sky showroom?"
Kasei Masuo had a hint of nervousness on his face, his eyes flickering, and he quickly nodded in response: "Yes, we originally planned to remove it after the incident with Kaito Kid is over tonight. There are cardboard boxes inside."
"It seems like a lot of media have come to the guard room." Officer Nakamori frowned, feeling a little worried. He strode forward, opened the door and checked. He saw that the corner was filled with boxes of all sizes, like a small mountain.
Suzuki Jirokichi also looked inside. Looking at the simple environment, he frowned with a hint of disgust on his face: "Forget it, it's just a pity that I can't see the footage from the security camera."
"You can use this computer to watch that." Kasei Masuo said, walked quickly into the room, turned on the computer, and quickly typed on the keyboard with both hands to call up the surveillance footage.
"Look!" Kasezao shouted, with a tone of seeking credit in his voice.
Kudo Yuki and her group also came in to investigate, their eyes fixed on the screen.
Suzuki Jirokichi leaned over the screen, looked at the clear surveillance footage, and nodded with satisfaction: "Oh, that's it."
Officer Nakamori took over the conversation: "Then let's start with Minister Kase, shall we?"
"Okay." Kasei Masuo cleared his throat, his expression turned serious, and he recounted what had happened.
Officer Nakamori was shocked, his eyes widened. "What! President Yoshida re-inspected the showroom? In the short time before the final inspection was over?"
"Yes, he said there were some things he wanted to confirm, and asked us to give him some time. Do you want to take a look? I think there should be a video of the incident."
As soon as Kasetsuo finished speaking, he operated the computer again and called up the video. Everyone involuntarily moved closer to the computer screen and stared at the video, as if they wanted to find out the truth from the flickering images.
