The Black Detective of the Detective Conan World

He was about to speak when he suddenly felt his heart leap violently, as if an invisible hand had tightly gripped his heart!

Intense pain surged through me!

And the bones in his body seemed to be about to melt!

puff.

Conan fell to the ground.

Ran was shocked to see this and rushed over to hug him: "Conan! Conan, what's wrong? Ah! It's so hot! You have such a high fever?"

Inspector Megure also saw Conan collapse and immediately ordered his men, "Go get a doctor!"

The diplomat's son, Tsujimura Takayoshi, added, "Take him to my room first and let him rest on the bed."

Ran quickly picked up Conan and ran over.

Naoto Hayashi looked at this scene and felt that it looked somewhat familiar.

This seems to be... a plot where Conan temporarily returns to his original body as Shinichi Kudo?

It turns out that it was recovered in this case.

Knowing that he wouldn't die, Naoto Hayashi sent another little bee to follow him, intending to witness the event.

In addition, he had collected all the clues in the room, and he even saw clearly how the murderer made his move and how he dropped the weapon.

However, he couldn't figure out many of the details.

It's okay, it doesn't matter if you don't understand, just leave it to Kogoro Mouri to think about.

Even if he's a complete idiot, he's still a detective and is quite familiar with many criminals' methods and mindsets.

It shouldn't be difficult to deduce the truth.

He immediately went to Kogoro Mouri's side and began to whisper in his ear.

At this point, Hattori Heiji confidently deduced the truth of the case. After finding the evidence, he immediately summoned the police and began to conduct reasoning and demonstration.

He used the fishing line he found to secure one end to the key with tape, and threaded the other end through the deceased's trouser pocket, extending it to the outside of the study door.

Then he closed the door, gently pulled the fishing line, and sure enough, the key was pulled through the crack in the door into the deceased's pocket. Then he pulled hard and retracted the fishing line.

"Oh!!" The police officers present exclaimed in surprise.

Hattori Heiji said confidently, "Based on the clues at the scene and this method, the only person who had time to carry out the murder was you..."

……

Meanwhile, after settling Conan into bed, Ran ran off to find a doctor.

As soon as she left, Conan groaned, and after a violent tremor, his body miraculously grew larger and larger, eventually returning to the body of high school student Shinichi Kudo!

Conan… no, Shinichi Kudo gasped for breath, overjoyed.

Although I don't know exactly what happened, I only realized how precious it was after I got it back.

Conan Edogawa wouldn't even be a dog! My own body is much better!

Shinichi Kudo was overjoyed.

However, the increase in his size did not improve his cold. He was still sweating profusely, had a headache, blurred vision, and felt weak all over.

He took off his undershirt and casually grabbed a blue suit belonging to Takayoshi Tsujimura from the room and put it on.

At that moment, he remembered the murder that had occurred in the study, and despite his weakness, he got up and rushed to the study.

The little bee hiding in the corner witnessed the entire transformation, and Lin Zhiren was amazed, feeling that the trip was worthwhile.

When Shinichi Kudo arrived at the study door, he heard Heiji Hattori's voice inside:

"...The only one who had time to carry out the murder was you..."

"Mr. Tsujimura Toshimitsu!"

Shinichi Kudo wore a smile that said, "You're nothing special."

He immediately stood confidently at the door and began to speak in an extremely pretentious manner.

"He's not the culprit!"

"He's not the culprit!"

Almost simultaneously, another voice uttered the same words; it was Kogoro Mouri!

For a moment, the scene was filled with a bloody, gruesome atmosphere.

Inspector Megure's eyes widened: "Kudo, my brother?!"

Kogoro glared at him angrily: "It's you, you brat?!"

Hattori Heiji looked surprised: "You're Kudo Shinichi?"

The others didn't recognize Shinichi Kudo and were wondering who this young man who looked like a high school student was.

Just then, Ran, who had been searching everywhere for Conan, rushed over. Upon seeing the person in front of her, she was immediately startled and stopped in her tracks.

The Shinichi Kudo she had been longing for had actually appeared right in front of her!

However, after the initial shock and surprise, what welled up in my heart was endless grievance and resentment!

"Where...where have you been?! Do you know what I...I..." Xiaolan's voice gradually choked up, and tears streamed down her face.

"I was so worried about you, but you..."

"Don't cry..."

Shinichi Kudo was completely stumped.

Kogoro Mori glared at him fiercely, then repeated with a cold laugh, "The culprit is not this old man."

Inspector Megure's attention immediately shifted from Kudo back to the case, and he asked in surprise, "Mouri, who is the culprit?"

Shinichi Kudo was caught off guard by Ran's crying and flustered, unable to get a word in edgewise. He could only watch helplessly as Kogoro Mouri started showing off.

Just now, Naoto Hayashi told Kogoro Mouri the clues, and he was like Sherlock Holmes, instantly figuring out all the clues and seeing through the truth!

"The art of armchair strategizing, Kuroko." Kogoro mocked Hattori Heiji first, causing his anger to surge.

Then the analysis began.

First, the method of moving the key with fishing line is not working. The key cannot be put into the deceased's sitting pocket because the sitting position will cause folds in the pocket to obstruct it. Even if it is put in, the key is not facing the right direction.

Hattori Heiji refused to believe it and tried it, only to find that it really didn't work, and he immediately became withdrawn.

Since the method of creating a locked room failed, it means that this case was not a locked-room murder! Therefore, there is still one person suspected of murder!

"It's you! Mrs. Tsujimura!"

Kogoro Mouri pointed his finger, and Mrs. Tsujimura in the crowd was struck as if by lightning, her whole body trembling.

Everyone was stunned.

Hattori Heiji stammered, "But, when we came in, Mr. Tsujimura Isao was already..."

“Dead? No, no.” Kogoro shook his finger, his eyes narrowing slightly. “He was just sitting quietly at the table, his face hidden by books. Was he dead? He was just asleep.”

A thought flashed through Hattori Heiji's mind: "I understand! Mr. Tsujimura Isao drank sleeping pills, was forced into a sitting position by the murderer... and then, after the door was opened, was stabbed with a poisoned needle and died from the poison!"

Kogoro Mouri said with a deep look in his eyes, "That's right! Right in front of us, the murderer put on this show to make us detectives her... alibis!"

Mrs. Tsujimura's face turned pale and then red, and her body trembled slightly. After a long while, she exhaled and said coldly, "As expected of a famous detective, Kogoro Mouri."

Shinichi Kudo: It's over...

Inspector Megure: Aya!

Naoto Hayashi: LOL!

Chapter 68 The title of the famous detective shines even brighter

Mrs. Tsujimura confessed.

There was nothing she could do even if she didn't confess; she was still wearing the key ring containing the poison needle.

In addition, there were indeed traces of sleeping pills in the deceased's body, which can be confirmed by examining the corpse.

Previously, everyone was only misled by the poison needle killing method and subconsciously ignored other possibilities.

After Kogoro Mouri's deduction, Mrs. Tsujimura readily confessed to her crime.

Then he confessed to the reasons for his crime.

The reason is Sachiko Katsuragi! When Takayoshi Tsujimura brought back photos of his new girlfriend, Isao Tsujimura and Mrs. Tsujimura were stunned. They recognized her at a glance as Mrs. Tsujimura's daughter with her ex-husband!

Because she looks exactly like Mrs. Tsujimura when she was young!

Tsujimura Isao was shocked and furious, and inadvertently revealed the truth: twenty years ago, he framed Mrs. Tsujimura's ex-husband and imprisoned him, then used dishonest means to take Mrs. Tsujimura's body, and finally killed that ex-husband in prison.

Upon seeing Katsuragi Sachiko's photo, he suspected that this person had come to avenge his father!

Mrs. Tsujimura also thought so.

So the couple secretly hired detectives to investigate Sachiko Katsuragi, and coincidentally, they both approached Kogoro Mouri.

However, Mrs. Tsujimura did not really want to investigate; instead, she wanted to use the detective to create her own alibi and ultimately kill her husband, Isao Tsujimura!

To avenge her ex-husband!

Upon hearing this intricate tale of grievances, Xing Shuoji was filled with unease.

Murder is murder, and no amount of reasoning can cover up the fact that it is a crime.

Mrs. Tsujimura was taken away.

Katsuragi Sachiko covered her face and wept bitterly.

Kogoro Mouri successfully solves another case, further solidifying his reputation as a renowned detective.

Inspector Megure was also very pleased. His younger brother had defeated the young punk from Kansai. This time, Kanto had won!

As for Naoto Hayashi... he won miserably.

He absorbed the diplomat's soul; it tasted somewhat sweet and sour like oranges, with a rich fruity aroma—quite nice.

In addition, Naoto Hayashi also gained merit by revealing the real culprit.

They also picked up the sins that the murderer had dropped.

Meanwhile, Ran's longing and yearning for Shinichi, whom she hadn't seen in so long, grew stronger. Tears welled up in her eyes as she choked back sobs, complaining about why he had been missing for so long.

Shinichi Kudo also had a lot to say to Ran and wanted to express his feelings.

But before he could even finish preparing, that feeling of being torn apart all over his body came back again!

An unimaginable surge of heat coursed through his body, as if it were about to melt his bones completely.

Shinichi Kudo sensed something was wrong; it seemed he was about to turn back into Conan!

Ran, confused, rushed to find a doctor, while Hattori Heiji chattered incessantly beside her.

"Your detectives in Kanto are pretty good. That Uncle Mori looks unreliable, but I didn't expect him to be able to deduce the truth faster than me. And you, kid, you did alright too. You were able to analyze the truth just from what others relayed about the case... Hmm, you win this time."

Shinichi Kudo endured the pain and gritted his teeth, saying, "There's no such thing as winning or losing in deduction, because... there's only ever one truth in this world, and that's what we're after."

Hattori Heiji was stunned.

This kid is such a show-off.

Naoto Hayashi walked over and saw that Shinichi Kudo was trembling all over, obviously about to transform. If he didn't help cover him up, he would probably be exposed to everyone.

He grabbed Shinichi Kudo and led him out of the room.

Ran ran over from afar with a doctor. Shinichi Kudo grabbed Naoto Hayashi's collar and said with difficulty, "No...no..."

Naoto Hayashi understood what he meant, so he turned a corner in the corridor and found an empty room to hide in.

Shinichi Kudo felt as if boiling water was surging inside him, steam billowing from his pores, and his entire body began to shrink in front of Naoto Hayashi!

Get smaller!

In a matter of moments, he transformed from Shinichi Kudo back into Conan Edogawa!

The once well-fitting blue suit had been transformed into an oversized coat that completely enveloped him.

Naoto Hayashi pulled Conan up; he looked like he had just been pulled out of the water, his clothes soaked with sweat.
