Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

This made Gao Yuanyao very sad.

After completing their studies.

Gao Yuanyao returned to his hometown once again.

Among the pile of letters.

Takato Yoichi discovered the notebook that Chikamiya Suzuko had sent him.

The notebook contained Suzuko Chikamiya's magic tricks and techniques.

Later, Gao Yuanyao returned to the island nation.

He heard that Chikamiya Reiko's disciple had established the Fantasy Magic Troupe after Chikamiya Reiko's death.

Therefore, Gao Yuanyao wanted to go and see for himself.

But what surprised Gao Yuanyao the most that time was...

The programs performed by the Fantasy Magic Troupe are all in Chikamiya Suzuko's notebook.

In particular, the 'living doll' is said to have been invented by the mountain god and his three companions.

However, there are clear records in Chikamiya Suzuko's notebook.

Therefore, Takato Yoichi began to suspect the unexpected death of Chikamiya Suzuko.

To find out the reason.

Takato Haruka joined the Fantasy Magic Troupe and became its manager.

A few days ago.

Gao Yuanyao returned from shopping.

At the entrance to the rest area, I overheard the conversation between the mountain god Fumio, Yurama, Yuumi, and Sakonji.

"I only wanted to scare her and get her notebook," said Shigeo Yamagami. "But I didn't expect that the wooden board on the ceiling would break, causing her to fall off."

Xi Hai said, "I don't think that's a coincidence."

"What."

Yumi continued, "I heard from Sakuraba that Sakonji tampered with the ceiling before we went there."

Upon hearing this, Gao Yuanyao was furious.

Therefore, Takato Yoichi came up with this plan to kill.

……

After Gao Yuanyao finished speaking.

Sakonji spoke first: "Officer, he's a serial killer. How can you take his words seriously?"

Seeing that no one spoke.

Sakonji took a notebook out of his inner pocket and threw it in front of Takato Yoichi, saying, "See this? This is the notebook."

"You killed Chikamiya Suzuko, didn't you?" Inspector Kenmochi asked, grabbing Sakonji by the collar.

"This notebook was given to me by Professor Kinmiya. Besides, how can you say I killed someone based on this notebook alone? You have no evidence, so don't try anything reckless, or I'll have my lawyer sue you," Sakonji said contemptuously.

Gao Yuanyao didn't say anything, but picked up the notebook and flipped through it.

"Officer, Sakonji is right, so let's not say anything more."

"what?"

Everyone was quite surprised to hear what Takato Yoichi said.

Gao Yuanyao had previously killed three people in succession.

How could someone say something like that now?

However, Takato Yoichi ignored everyone and continued, "Mr. Sakonji, can I have this notebook back? After all, it is my mother's keepsake."

Sakonji shrugged and said, "Whatever, I've already memorized everything in the notebook anyway."

"That would be great." Gao Yuanyao said, revealing a strange smile.

Gao Yuanyao didn't give anyone a chance to speak and said again, "Officer, take me away. I'll be satisfied as long as I get my mother's belongings back."

Regarding Takato Yoichi's strange behavior.

Kindaichi had his suspicions, but he didn't know why.

But for Zhiyong, he just thought of it as a good show.

Zhiyong didn't really care about the final outcome.

Zhiyong returned to his room.

Haibara Mi and Ai were still sitting.

"Why didn't you rest?" Zhiyong asked curiously.

"I was a little worried because you didn't come back," Haibara Mi replied.

Zhiyong smiled and said, "Now that everything is over, let's get some rest. We can spend the whole day here tomorrow, and then we'll take the train back to Tokyo the day after tomorrow."

"What was the final result?" Haibara Mi asked.

Aren't you tired?

"I just had a nap, so I'm not tired yet. Tell us about this case."

"Well."

Zhiyong then recounted the entire process.

"Mr. Takato is really pitiful, but why did he let Sakonji go in the end?" Haibara Mi asked in confusion.

“He’s already killed three people, so he won’t care about killing one more. He definitely won’t let Sakonji go. But we don’t know what he’ll do next. After all, Takato Yoichi isn’t an ordinary murderer,” Ai analyzed.

"That's right, Takato Yoichi only let Sakonji go after he saw Sakonji's notebook."

"Could there be something wrong with that notebook?" Ai asked doubtfully.

“Back then, Suzuko Konmiya wrote in two notebooks. She gave one to her son, and the one she kept with her was obtained by Sakonji and others. I suspect that there must be a trap in the notebook that Sakonji obtained.”

"Is there a trap in the notebook?" Haibara Mi asked suspiciously.

"That should be the case. After all, Chikamiya Reiko's brilliant achievements show that she is very intelligent. She should have discovered that her disciple had a problem long ago. Therefore, she had already set a trap in the notebook. She just didn't expect that someone would kill her."

"Never mind, we can't guess anyway, let's get some rest." Haibara Mi said, getting up.

"You should get some rest."

On the second day.

After the three of them got up and washed, they left the inn.

This place is relatively underdeveloped now.

The surrounding area is all swamps and wetlands, so the living environment is not very good.

After the jadeite rough stones have been mined.

There's not much room for development in the local area.

Zhiyong is not here for tourism.

The main goal is to see if we can encounter the special substance needed for space.

After a day of sightseeing.

Zhi Yong did not find the special substance that could enhance the space.

Zhiyong had expected this result long ago.

Therefore, I wasn't too disappointed.

I rested at the hotel for another night.

When the train arrived at dawn, the three of them boarded it and returned to Tokyo.

Just as Zhiyong had guessed.

There is a magic trick in the notebook that is a trap.

Takato Yoichi saw this magic trick.

That's why he obediently allowed the police to arrest him.

That way, Sakonji will be at ease.

Just as Gao Yuanyao had guessed.

Now, he is the only one left in the leadership of the Fantasy Magic Troupe.

Therefore, he prepared a personal magic show.

A few days later.

Zhiyong saw it in the newspaper.

Sakonji was burned to death in a fire while performing magic.

……

Chapter 232 Kogoro Mouri is about to face revenge.

I returned to Tokyo.

Zhiyong got busy again.

School matters, company matters, and matters related to career advancement.

"What? Uncle Mori is being retaliated against?"

Although Zhiyong no longer uses collecting ghosts as the main means of expanding his space.

But I've already gotten used to going to the Mouri Detective Agency.

After all, I've gotten used to this kind of life where things happen all the time.
