Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

He bought three cell phones. He kept one for himself, gave one to Miwako, and kept one for the coffee shop.

Zhiyong had originally planned to give one to each of Kogoro Mouri and Ran.

However, Zhiyong's relationship with them is not yet close enough for him to give them such expensive gifts.

Even if Zhiyong offered it, they wouldn't accept it.

Zhiyong bought the phone so that the Junior Detective League could easily contact him as their advisor.

For this matter, Zhiyong even treated them to a meal and gave them his phone number.

They were told to call him if they encountered any cases.

Zhiyong also contributed some money as operating funds for the Junior Detective Club.

This time, an opportunity finally presented itself, so they called Zhiyong to inform him.

On the phone, Ayumi told Zhiyong.

The juvenile detective club received a request from their classmates to help find their lost cat.

While searching for the cat, they found the body in a bathroom; they have already called the police.

Zhiyong hung up the phone and immediately rode his motorcycle to the address they had given him.

When we arrived at the scene, it had already been cordoned off by the police.

However, when the police saw that it was Zhiyong, they did not stop him and let him enter the scene.

The main reason is still because of Miwako.

Inspector Megure was speechless when he saw Tomoyuki.

However, he had already gotten used to it and just turned a blind eye.

Zhiyong asked about the situation of Bumei and the others.

Ayumi told Zhiyong.

It turns out that after school today...

A classmate commissioned them to find their missing cat using several very rare Super Golden Kamen Rider cards.

They searched for a long time but couldn't find it.

When they finally found the place, they discovered that the cat had come out of the house, and the cat was covered in blood.

They initially thought the cat was injured.

However, after examining the cat, they found no injuries, and the blood was all from other places.

The blood on the cat hadn't dried yet.

Therefore, Conan deduced that something had happened at this house, so he climbed over the wall into the yard.

Through the window where the cat was coming out, they found a man covered in blood lying on the bathroom floor.

But after they called the police.

Inspector Megure led them to the bathroom, where the body had disappeared.

From the time Conan and his friends called the police to the arrival of Inspector Megure and his team, there were fifteen minutes in between.

Conan and his friends kept watching from the front door, but didn't see anyone coming in or out of the house.

Inspector Megure deduced that the body was likely hidden somewhere in the room, so they are currently searching for it.

After listening to their story, Zhiyong felt as if he had seen it in Detective Conan.

But as time went on,

Aside from those particularly moving or special events that I can remember clearly, I can't recall many others.

However, Zhiyong also believed that what Conan and the others said was true.

After all, Conan's physical abilities are no joke.

Of course, there is another reason.

The spatial reminder can collect ghosts, so Ayumi and the others were right; there really are dead people here.

Zhiyong only knew the general location, but not the exact location of the body.

Miwako Sato is not here today.

Zhi Yong had no intention of getting involved in the case.

His main task in coming here was to collect ghosts.

Since Conan and his friends saw the body, and the body wasn't taken out, it's likely that the body is still inside the house.

Although the police are not good at reasoning, finding a body should be very easy for them.

Let the police handle these matters; he can just watch the show from the sidelines.

Zhiyong looked around and found that besides the police, it was only Conan and his friends.

He asked Conan curiously, "How did the police get in? Why didn't we see the owner of this house?"

Conan replied, "When we arrived, the homeowner opened the door, but we didn't find a body. He was very angry and thought we were playing a prank. He's gone upstairs to rest now. He also said that his brother will be back in a little while, and we should ask his brother if we need anything."

"What about the cat? Didn't you say it was covered in blood? We'll know once we get it tested, won't we?"

"We thought the evidence was conclusive, so we let our classmate take the cat back to clean it."

Is this still Conan?

Their way of handling things is truly speechless.

At that moment, someone reported to Inspector Megure.

"Officer, that man's brother is back."

After the man was let in by the police, he saw the police searching everywhere and hurriedly said, "What... what's going on here?"

Zhiyong just saw what the ghost looked like.

Upon seeing this person, I realized that he looked exactly like the ghost I had just taken in, except for his hairstyle, the fact that he didn't have a beard, and he wasn't wearing glasses.

At this moment, Zhiyong felt that he understood a little, but there were still some things he didn't understand.

Inspector Megure explained, "It's nothing. These kids said they found a body in your house."

Upon hearing this, the man's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly asked, "What? A body was found in my house? Has something happened to my brother?"

"No, your brother is fine. He was the one who opened the door for us just now," Inspector Megure quickly explained.

"Oh, I see." The man breathed a sigh of relief.

"I don't know, how many brothers do you have?" Zhiyong asked.

"It's just my brother and me," the man said, puzzled.

"Are you twins?" Zhiyong asked again.

“Yes,” the person replied.

Zhiyong was certain that the dead man was his brother, and that this man was the one who killed him.

Just then, from the room next door, there was a "clang" sound of porcelain falling and shattering.

Inspector Megure led the way hurriedly.

It turned out that Genta had taken a teapot from the cabinet, but he dropped it and it broke on the ground.

Inspector Megure rushed over and said, "How could you be so careless?"

The man said very kindly, "It's alright, it's alright, it's not a big deal, it's just a teapot."

Just then, an angry roar came from upstairs, saying, "You're making a lot of noise, can you please be quiet?"

Zhiyong lifted Yuantai down and said, "You guys better behave yourselves. Let the police do the search. You can't help here and will only disrupt their work."

Now that Yuan Tai realized he had caused trouble, he stopped talking.

The person walked to the top of the stairs and asked, "Brother Heyou, are you on the second floor now?"

Inspector Megure said somewhat embarrassedly, "Yes, he seems quite angry right now. May I ask what your brother does for a living?"

“My brother is a freelance writer. He usually writes at home, so he often spends a lot of time at home. By the way, this is my business card.”

As he spoke, the man took out a business card and gave it to Inspector Megure.

Inspector Megure took the business card, looked at it, and said, "Tanaka Tomofumi. Do you work at a securities firm? And, are there only two of you brothers in this house?"

“Yes, this house belongs to me. My brother is staying here temporarily,” Tanaka Tomofumi replied.

……

Chapter 37 Dark under the lamp

Zhiyong also felt something was strange. The appearance of a ghost was definitely real, and the one who died must be his brother. But how could he still talk?

As Zhiyong looked down, he saw a leaf fall onto Tanaka Tomofumi's trousers.

After a while, Inspector Megure had searched almost every room, but he still couldn't find the body.

Inspector Megure said to Tomofumi Tanaka, "We've searched under the eaves and under the beds, but we haven't searched the rooms on the second floor yet. Can we search the second floor?"

"No problem, just be careful not to disturb my brother, then it's fine," Tanaka Tomofumi said with a smile.

Tanaka Tomofumi led everyone to the second floor.

He knocked on the door and called out, "Brother!" Receiving no reply, he called out again, "Brother!"

Then, Tomofumi Tanaka opened the door, went inside, walked behind the man, looked at him, and turned back to whisper to Inspector Megure, "It's okay, he seems to be asleep."

Inspector Megure glanced at it as well, and without any doubt, said, "It seems so."

As he spoke, he and several police officers entered the room to search it.

No one expected that the criminal would be so bold as to place the corpse so openly in front of them.

The room wasn't large, and there wasn't much furniture. There was basically nowhere to hide, so we finished looking at it very quickly.

Inspector Megure drew back the curtains and saw a large tree behind it. He said, "There's a really big tree behind there. That tree is..."
