The world of science is unscientific

I'll pretend that Mami never existed.

The recess education session has ended.

Eri Kisaki smiled with satisfaction.

This is really good.

With a slightly older and very reliable older brother as their pillar of support, Xiaolan and her friends would have far fewer worries.

Let's take another look at Kogoro Mouri, who's still fast asleep.

She suddenly became furious.

"Huh? Who put a handkerchief in my mouth?!"

At this moment, Kogoro Mouri suddenly woke up and started shouting, attracting the attention of the other audience members.

Yusuke Suzuki acted quickly, grabbing the bumbling detective and saying, "Teacher, keep your voice down, there are a lot of people here."

"Ah? Oh... I remember now."

Kogoro Mouri yawned, picked up the handkerchief and examined it closely; it seemed to be Ran's.

He shifted his gaze.

Yusuke Suzuki turned his head back to him. "Teacher, it was me too. Your snoring is too loud. People will complain."

"Oh? I see..."

The bumbling detective yawned again, showing no intention of pursuing the matter further. After noticing that something was amiss, he began to ask questions.

After listening, he said nonchalantly, "This is probably part of the program's arrangement."

Yusuke Suzuki was shocked.

No, you've completely forgotten what we saw and heard this afternoon, haven't you?

No normal person who knows the background of the matter would say such a thing.

Yes, he must be trying to comfort Ran and the others in this way!

Yusuke Suzuki felt he had found the right answer.

"Huh? Where's Conan?"

At this moment, Ran Mouri finally realized that Conan was missing.

"I bet he ran off to where the weirdo was." Sonoko Suzuki waved her hand dismissively. "There are plenty of staff up there; they should have caught that brat by now. Don't worry."

"But......"

Ran Mouri was still worried. "I think I should go and find him."

As soon as he finished speaking, the curtain on the stage was drawn back open.

Everyone turned to look at that spot immediately.

The singer, who was the female lead in the play, also came out.

"Miss Ashimi, you're done so quickly?" Sonoko Suzuki asked, somewhat puzzled.

Yusuke Suzuki shook his head. "That's Miss Renka."

Just then, Conan appeared out of nowhere and said he was just going to pee.

This is the first time he's urinated today. It seems Conan doesn't really have any health problems. He probably only went to the toilet frequently before because he was nervous at crime scenes.

Ran Mouri felt relieved and turned her attention back to the stage.

Although a minor incident occurred, the theater quieted down again as the performance continued.

Then the bumbling detective fell asleep again.

This time, there were no unexpected incidents, the rehearsal ended smoothly, and the audience gave it a warm round of applause.

After most of the audience had left, Yusuke Suzuki and his group went backstage.

I didn't see Ashimi Kazube; she said she went to rest.

Although Kogoro Mouri hadn't watched any of the plot, he still highly praised the performances of Tamanosuke Ito and others.

In the end, the female lead was replaced by Kataoka Renka.

Ito Tamanosuke clenched his fists, feeling that he was still being controlled by that weirdo.

But he couldn't find a way to exert his strength.

Judging from Kataoka Renka's performance today, there's no problem with her playing the lead role.

We'll discuss everything after tomorrow's performance.

So he pushed four, five, and six, and sent Suzuki Yusuke and his party away from the theater.

"It seems Mr. Tamanosuke really values ​​this performance," Ran Mouri remarked.

"Well, I hope everything goes well tomorrow."

Seeing that Ai Haibara was so cold that she had goosebumps, Yusuke Suzuki told everyone to go to the hotel to rest first.

Chapter 858 A Crime with Incoherent Preface

Generally speaking, hotels are Yusuke Suzuki's domain.

But the current situation doesn't allow it; sleeping in the same room as Ai Haibara would make me look like a pervert.

So the little girl was taken away by Eri Kisaki.

Yusuke Suzuki refused to take care of Conan and left him with Kogoro Mouri.

I fall asleep quickly when I'm resting alone.

When they opened their eyes again, Kataoka Renka rushed over and told everyone that Ito Tamanosuke had been arrested by the police on suspicion of murder.

what?

Is Ashimi Kazube really planning to destroy Tamanosuke Ito and his theater troupe?

Or did I guess wrong, and the real culprit is Tatsuhiko Rausu?

He flatters Kataoka Renka, then kills his love rival.

In the world of Detective Conan, this is considered a standard and reasonable motive.

Everyone then questioned Kataoka Renka in detail.

Ito Tamanosuke was found this morning in front of the monument, holding a bloodstained knife and wearing the strange man's clothes.

The person who was killed was the staff member who had sounded rather impatient earlier.

Ito Tamanosuke claimed that he was unconscious at the time, and that he had just woken up like this, and that he knew nothing.

"Dad, Yusuke, let's hurry to the police station."

Ran Mouri naturally didn't believe that Tamanosuke Ito would kill someone. Her face showed worry. "This is definitely a frame-up!"

Without hesitation, the bumbling detective immediately stood up. "Eri, you stay here and take care of the little girl. Yusuke, let's go!"

The little sister is Ito Megumi.

She was crying and clinging to Conan, hoping he could help rescue her brother.

Need I say more? Of course we have to save them!

Conan caught up with Yusuke Suzuki and the others.

After arriving at the police station, Kogoro Mouri quickly obtained visitation rights.

Upon entering, I was surprised to find that Tatsuhiko Rausu was also there.

Where did this person get the information?

Oh, he's a local, and the heir to a conglomerate, so naturally he's well-informed.

But they were quickly proven wrong.

The reason why Tatsuhiko Rausu was there was because Tamanosuke Ito received a letter with his signature on it.

The letter reads, "I want to discuss the Lotus Flower with you. Wait for me in the open space in front of the monument."

Rausu Tatsuhiko himself received the same letter, but the location was changed to a park, and the signature was changed to Ito Tamanosuke.

He said he saw Ashimi at the park.

As a result, Ashimi Kazube was also summoned to the police station.

She used a note to explain where she was doing vocal exercises.

This is a bit confusing.

Kogoro Mouri, posing as a detective, inquired about the details of the scene from the police, only to be told that the test results were not yet available.

There was nothing else they could do but leave.

Eri Kisaki called to say they were at the theater.

So Yusuke Suzuki took the lead in moving the venue.

Ai Haibara and Eri Kisaki are taking care of Megumi Ito together, so he definitely has to go there.

On the way, Conan found an opportunity to strike up a conversation, "When I went to chase that weirdo yesterday, I heard his voice in Miss Renhua's room. He was saying some encouraging things. But I didn't find him. I guess it was something like a loudspeaker."

Yusuke Suzuki nodded. "Then we can probably still find tape recorders and such in Tatsuhiko Rausu's car or house."

"Considering his status as the head of a conglomerate, it's more likely that he'll find it in the car."

Conan looked puzzled. "You've already ruled him out as a suspect? Why?"

"Do you think I would personally commit murder?" Suzuki Yusuke glanced at Conan.

Conan was taken aback when he was asked the question.

Indeed, people like my buddy would almost never do something as suicidal as murder, which would drag them into an abyss.

The same goes for Tatsuhiko Rausu.

However, this is not a strong argument to rule out the other party's suspicion.
