Chapter 267 Murder Case

"I say, Huiyuan, are you done yet?"

After making Haibara cry four times, Conan couldn't bear it anymore and pulled Haibara aside to confront her while Xiaolan and Sonoko went to the bathroom.

Huihara Ai put her hands on her hips and looked dead, "I'm just doing my duty as a child."

Conan was about to go crazy: "Then when did I bully you?"

"That's helping you establish a good image as a naughty kid."

"Is this a good image? Can you check your conscience?"

"No."

Haibara Ai righteously rejected the suggestion of touching her conscience and took a lollipop and stuffed it into her mouth.

Conan was stunned by this action and thought of Jinpei Matsuda... and Gin.

Just when Conan was about to ask her where she bought the lollipop, a somewhat familiar figure passed by Haibara Ai and walked into the public bathroom through the corridor.

Conan's pupils shrank: "Hey, Huibara!"

"how?"

At his signal, Haibara Ai turned her head and just happened to see the half figure with long black hair entering the men's restroom.

The bare arms...

"...!"

Sure enough, that person followed.

"Hey, Haibara, isn't he the one wearing a vest in the middle of winter last time..." Conan's face was solemn.

He remembered that at that time, Huiyuan Ai sensed that there was someone from the organization in the car. Although Huiyuan later told him that it was unlikely to be this person, but...

What if the perception is wrong?
Huihara Ai silently turned her head and glanced at him: "He is wearing a vest this time too."

Conan: "..."

This is not the point!
"I mean, he's the guy on the bus last time." Conan emphasized his point and frowned as he stared at the passage leading to the bathroom.

Ai Huihara noticed Conan's suspicion and continued in a calm tone: "So? You think he is suspicious again?"

Conan squinted his eyes: "Didn't you say last time that you could sense the organization's aura?"

"That was after this person got on the bus... Don't forget, he got on the bus right after Mr. Lin and Hiroki."

Haibara Ai leaned against the wall, not feeling nervous at all, just tired - tired of trying to hide from Conan the fact that the group of people around him were all Gin's men.

In a sense, she felt that Conan was also pitiful.

Just at this moment, another person passed by them and walked towards the toilet, but this time Conan no longer paid attention to others, but stared at Huihara Ai with a scrutinizing look:

"You've been acting a little weird lately."

"……what?"

Haibara Ai's heart skipped a beat, but she continued to pretend nothing had happened and held the lollipop in her mouth.

Did she fail to act well and was discovered to have a problem? But after returning from Nishitama, her alcohol level has remained normal...

"You've been..." Conan stared at her and found the problem. "Have you gained weight? Your face has become round."

Just say why it looks different from before.

Is it because of eating candy?
"So, Haibara probably didn't eat sweets before..."

Conan secretly remembered this.

But how could Huiyuan Ai know? She just touched her fist and clenched it:

Saying she's fat? Edogawa is really asking for trouble.

Although she has indeed become a little rounder recently...

Just as Huiyuan was thinking about how to fight back, a terrible scream suddenly came from the toilet at the end of the corridor:

"Ahhh!!" And it's a male.

Conan reacted instantly and rushed into the passage reflexively.

There are men's and women's restrooms on the left and right sides of the end of the passage. When Conan passed by, he saw the man who had just passed by them sitting at the door on the right, constantly backing away.

The screams alarmed the others.

Xiaolan and Sonoko, who had just come out of the women's bathroom opposite, looked at the wide open door opposite, hugged each other and screamed at a high decibel.

When Conan arrived at the bathroom door and saw the scene inside, his eyes suddenly became sharp and a little shocked:

The cubicle door facing the entrance was completely open. A man in a brown suit was sitting on the toilet, with a kitchen knife stuck in his chest. Blood was flowing down his clothes and all over the floor...

But what shocked Conan was the long-haired man they were on the bus last time.

He was washing his hands in front of the sink as if nothing had happened!
Haibara Ai, who came later, also saw this shocking scene.

"Kill...kill someone!"

At this time, the man who was so scared that he was sitting on the ground, stretched out a trembling finger and pointed at the long-haired man in front of the sink.

But it's not over yet.

Just as he finished speaking, two people walked out from the room next to the tragedy and the room at the corner at the same time. They were also shocked when they saw the scene next to them.

Conan looked at the three people in the bathroom seriously, with a serious question mark on his forehead:

Who is the murderer?

Although at first glance, the murderer seemed obvious, it was the man he had seen before...

but.

He had never seen a murderer who would kill someone so brazenly and then wash his hands of the crime - it was so unscientific.

Haibara Ai also fell silent when she saw this scene.

Judging from the situation, it seems that this uncle who took good care of her will be regarded as a suspect...

Just when the atmosphere was tense, the long-haired man with several scars on his face finally finished washing his hands. He glanced coldly at the people blocking the bathroom and calmly took out his cell phone.

"Reporting a case, a dead body was found in the restroom on the third floor of Beihu Shopping Center, over."

After the call was connected, he simply said one sentence and hung up.

However, everyone shuddered when they heard the long-haired man's voice, even Huiyuan Ai was no exception:

This sound is really, too creepy.

Not only is it hoarse, but it also has a 'hissing' noise.

Haibara Ai looked at the other person blankly with a complicated expression.

She now knew why this Mr. Mirror had remained silent… He was simply too discerning and easily frightened.

——An important member of the Five Star Team, Noah has told her everything he can, and he also knows that Jing is actually the person arranged by Gin to protect her.

But at present, the two of them have not had any formal communication.

Of course, Haibara Ai asking Jing to help buy things doesn’t count as communication.

The two glanced at each other casually, neither showing any sign of acquaintance.

Death is here, everything is stable.

The man who was frightened and sat on the ground at first was an ordinary office employee named Shang Sanlu. Today was a rare day off, so he came to the mall to stroll around and relax.

He was probably convinced that Jing was the murderer, so he tried desperately to leave the scene.

However, the situation has not been fully understood yet, and according to the rules, no one at the scene can leave... So the "battle-hardened" Mao Lilan took the initiative to stop the other party.

The top three lanes were very excited and wanted to force their way out...

However, after Mao Lilan punched a hole in the wall, he became completely obedient.
