Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 133 This is the consequence of not having read books
Behind Natsukawa, Conan strode down the stairs.

"Uncle Mori, let's go down the cliff and check the situation!" Conan called out as soon as he came downstairs and saw Kogoro Mori.

"I see!"

Kogoro Mouri nodded solemnly.

He had just checked and found a stream below the cliff. If Xiu Nian and Tian Yong were lucky enough to fall into the stream, they might survive.

Conan was still quite relieved. Although Uncle Mori was unreliable most of the time, he was never ambiguous when it came to murder cases like this.

After the two left, Xia Chuan thought for a moment and said to Xiao Lan, "Xiao Lan, contact the hospital. Falling from such a height, even if you're not seriously injured, you'll be severely maimed. It's safer to call an ambulance."

"understood."

Ten minutes later.

At the edge of the grass below the mountain temple, Natsukawa held up a candlestick to light up Kogoro Mori's room.

The grass was growing very well because of the ample moisture, and it was almost as tall as Conan. But that made it a little harder to find Tenaga and Shunen who had fallen down.

Kogoro Mori bent over and groped around for more than ten minutes before finally finding the kayak.

"Seriously, what on earth happened? Why did Abbot Tenyō and Shūnen fall down?"

Kogoro Mouri was still completely bewildered.

While setting up the lighting, Xia Chuan explained, laying out Conan's reasoning in its entirety, and adding his own details.

"So, Abbot Tenyō is the murderer who killed Chūnen two years ago?"

Xia Chuan shook his head and then nodded: "There shouldn't be any mistake. Conan's reasoning is all learned from you, Uncle Mori. The case is reasonable and the logic is self-consistent, so the reasoning should be correct."

Kogoro Mouri, focusing on the phrase 'learning from himself,' laughed and scratched the back of his head somewhat embarrassedly: "Having followed me for so long, it's normal that he's learned some of my skills. No wonder I always bring him along when solving cases. Finally, he's putting him to some use. It seems Conan has potential!"

"."

Xia Chuan remained silent, his lips twitching slightly.

Conan's choice of Uncle Mori as his drug subject wasn't without reason; his confidence and narcissism are truly unparalleled.

Fortunately, it was getting dark, and Kogoro Mouri was searching for Amanaga and Hidenori, so he didn't notice anything wrong with Natsukawa's expression.

"Uncle Mori, Uncle Natsukawa, I've found Abbot Ten'ei!" Conan, who was searching alone with his own lighting equipment, suddenly looked up and shouted.

Xia Chuan looked up and saw that Conan's position was very close to the stream, but still a few meters away, forming a straight line with the kayak and the training room.

However, if he hadn't fallen into the water, Abbot Tenyō's chances of survival would have been zero.

After all, he fell from a meditation room that was forty or fifty meters high. If he hadn't fallen into the water, he would have been smashed to pieces.

Despite being somewhat prepared, the two still frowned when they saw Abbot Ten'yō's slightly cracked body.

A little disgusting.

“Abbot Tianyong should have died five or six hours earlier. He was probably strangled beforehand and then hung from the beam to pretend to commit suicide.”

Conan stood beside the corpse, not frowning at all, carefully examining it, occasionally turning over the somewhat deformed body.

On the surface, Abbot Tianyong had a very obvious ligature mark on his neck.

The ligature marks were purplish-blue, indicating that the death had occurred some time ago.

“Abbot Tianyong’s body is here. Xiu Nian was spurted out before him, when the water pressure was greater, so it was probably a little later.” Xia Chuan’s gaze was fixed on the stream, but he didn’t find any trace of blood.

"The stream is too shallow; I doubt anyone who falls in would survive."

Xia Chuan shook his head and sighed, picked up a branch from the side, and tested the water level.

The water level was about fifty centimeters; anyone who fell in would surely die. Finally, Xiu Nian's body was found by the three men five meters across the stream.

Perhaps because of her higher weight, Xiu Nian's death was even more gruesome.

His expression before death was filled with fear, and his wide-open eyes represented his longing for this world.

He smashed the wooden plank, clearly intending to wait for the water to recede before escaping from that spot, but he didn't realize that smashing the plank would cause him to be swept away by the current as well.

Or perhaps he overestimated himself, thinking he could withstand such turbulence.

"This is the consequence of not having read books. He probably didn't realize that the powerful current caused by breaking that wooden plank would sweep him straight out!"

Xia Chuan glanced back at Yoel, who was standing at the edge of the grass, or more precisely, at Anya in Yoel's arms.

Did you hear that? Without education, your crimes will be full of loopholes, and even running away will turn into courting death.

Anya: ─━_─━
Natsukawa's deduction was confirmed by Conan.

As expected of a man who can connect a training room with a water reservoir, his reasoning ability is one ten-thousandth of that of a washing machine!

Xiu Nian had been a monk for a year by the time he was eighteen. He probably hadn't studied much in the previous years, so it's normal that he didn't understand water flow and water pressure. He might not have even been to school at all.

The police arrived half an hour late.

Inspector Megure entered the temple, leaning on his cane.

The cane was an IV stand, and a bottle, possibly containing glucose or something similar, was hanging on it.

Anyone who saw this would call him a model worker; he deserves to be a police inspector.

"Inspector Megure, what's wrong with you?" Kogoro Mouri asked with some concern.

As a former colleague, he had a particularly good relationship with Inspector Megure, so he couldn't help but feel curious and worried at this moment.

"Hmph!!" Inspector Megure didn't answer, but waved his hand to signal the officers to go and examine the body.

In addition, the confessions were being conducted in an orderly manner, and the remaining three monks in the temple were all called up.

Kuan Nian, who was pulled out of bed, hurriedly said, "Officer, this has nothing to do with me. I was sleeping the whole time and was only just woken up by you. I know nothing about this."

"."

Tun Nian and Mu Nian were puzzled. They still didn't know what had happened and were wondering why Xiu Nian and Abbot Tian Yong hadn't appeared.

"Wait a minute, Senior Brother Kuan Nian, I heard Xiu Nian's cries earlier and wanted to go out and check, but you told me to just go and check and told me to keep sleeping. Why are you doing this now?" Mu Nian was completely bewildered, not knowing what her senior brother was up to.

Could the arrival of the police be related to Brother Kuan Nian?
Inspector Megure sighed and said, "It's just a routine questioning. Please don't be nervous, everyone. We have roughly identified the culprit. Now we just need your cooperation in giving your statements."

Next, Inspector Megure briefly recounted the details of the case.

Tun Nian and Mu Nian were dumbfounded. Their master was gone, and their junior brother was gone too?
This...this is too good!

Surprised and terrified, they were also somewhat restless. So what if he's dead? Now that Master Tianyong is dead, the important thing is who will inherit Shanni Temple.

Although Shanni Temple is located in a remote and sparsely populated area, it still has its share of incense offerings. If one can inherit this temple, one will at least be set for life.

The monks cooperated fully in taking statements, and Kuan Nian seemed to be afraid of something the whole time.

However, Inspector Megure didn't seem to care. Perhaps the deaths of the abbot and his junior apprentice were too much of a blow to him, which is normal and only shows that the master and apprentice had a very good relationship.

"Inspector Megure!" A police officer stepped forward and whispered a few words in Inspector Megure's ear.

The case is now very clear.
