My two-dimensional resident

At that moment, Mrs. Yamashita was instructing the nanny who had just arrived to take her daughter away. Upon hearing Conan's words, she showed a hint of surprise, and then quickly looked down to rummage through her purse.

She pulled out an identical spray bottle.

Conan was stunned when he saw that the spray bottle in Mrs. Yamashita's hand was exactly the same as the one he had found in the sewer.

After overhearing the conversation between the forensic doctor and Inspector Megure, he identified Mrs. Yamashita as the culprit.

Conan believes that the asthma spray was Mrs. Yamashita's tool for committing the crime. So he searches every corner around the area where he can hide something.

He finally found the spray in a sewer grate.

"Mrs. Yamashita, this spray is important evidence. Conan, my little brother..."

"Here you go, Miwako-neechan!"

Upon seeing this, Miwako Sato immediately took the spray from the two people's hands under the pretext of collecting evidence, and put on gloves.

Recalling what the forensic doctor had said, Miwako Sato immediately opened the caps of the two sprayers, holding one in each hand, and pressed the spray button while facing the ground.

The bottle in Mrs. Yamashita's hand was spraying a whitish mist, while the one Conan found was a pale yellow mixed with a hint of green, and it had a very pungent smell.

"This is chlorine gas!"

Miwako Sato gasped in surprise. She waved her hand to disperse the chlorine gas on the ground to prevent it from harming others.

"Mrs. Yamashita, is this bottle of chlorine yours?"

Sato Miwako held up the bottle in her hand and asked Mrs. Yamashita seriously.

"I...I don't know...I only brought one bottle. Really, officer..."

Mrs. Yamashita was still grieving the loss of her husband when she saw the police list her as a suspect, and she panicked instantly.

"Yes or no, we'll know once we take it back and check if your fingerprints are on it."

"Madam Yamashita, we now suspect that you poisoned your husband because you were unhappy that he left all his property to his son."

As soon as Miwako Sato finished speaking, the police officer next to her handcuffed Mrs. Yamashita.

"No, I didn't, I don't know anything..."

Conan looked at Mrs. Yamashita struggling in a panic and couldn't help but shake his head.

Despite having a strong motive for murder and solid evidence, he still refuses to admit it.

As with the cases he had solved in the past, the criminals would automatically confess and recount the crime after seeing the evidence.

'Did she try to resist? Did she wipe the fingerprints off the bottle?'

However, I heard she used to be a high school chemistry teacher. Chlorine gas doesn't just appear out of nowhere; there must be evidence...

Conan watched as Inspector Megure, who was dealing with reporters, looked delighted upon hearing that the suspect was Mrs. Yamashita.

He sighed inwardly, probably thinking that even without Kogoro Mouri, he could solve the case quickly this time.

He withdrew his gaze and walked towards Lin Tian at the back of the crowd. Feeling like a victor, he failed to notice the strange smile on the face of a little girl in the crowd.

She is Keiko Yamashita, the daughter adopted by Yamashita Mataichi and his current wife from an orphanage.

"8 minutes and 23 seconds, Conan, you're fast!"

Lin Tian looked at Conan, who had come up to him with a wary expression, and chuckled.

"Now that I have completed your task, can you tell me who you are? And who are those men in black?"

Conan watched Lin Tian warily, his tone calm.

"Sorry, I only said you were fast, not that you found the right killer..."

"what?"

Conan's eyes narrowed, staring at Lin Tian in disbelief.

Who else could it be but Mrs. Yamashita?

"Think carefully, why did Yamashita Yamaichi suddenly have an asthma attack?"

Why did that chlorine-filled spray bottle get stuck in the drain mesh? The mesh openings are much larger than the sprayer's!

Lin Tian ignored Conan's reaction and continued talking about the blind spots that they hadn't noticed.

"Why did Xiao's asthma suddenly flare up? Could it be...!"

! ”

Lin Tian's words made Conan feel like he had grasped something, overturning his previous conclusion about Mrs. Yamashita.

"These are the same batch of balloons that I bought for my daughter down the mountain. Maybe the answer you're looking for is inside."

Lin Tian took out the balloon he had bought from the clown earlier from his spatial backpack. The balloon contained a type of plant pollen, wormwood pollen.

"you mean!"

"Artemisia pollen!"

After seeing the balloon Lin Tian handed him, Conan recalled that when he first saw the deceased, there was a piece of balloon around him.

After figuring it out, Conan immediately grabbed the balloon and ran towards the crime scene. He had to find the balloon fragment!

"It's alright...it's only a small piece, but it's enough."

Conan picked up a small, thumb-sized piece of balloon from the ground and carefully carried it. Then he turned his gaze to Inspector Megure, who was still being interviewed.

'With so many people, it's difficult for me to use an anesthetic needle...'

Just as Conan was struggling with his decision, Lin Tian suddenly appeared in front of Inspector Megure and calmly said...

"Inspector Megure, you've arrested the wrong person. Mrs. Yamashita is not the murderer at all!"

"What? Who are you?!" Inspector Megure was still reveling in the reporter's flattery.

Now that someone has explicitly stated that they arrested the wrong person, he glared angrily at them.

"A detective driven by interest."

"Damn it, another detective! Kogoro Mouri isn't here, and now this brat has shown up..." Inspector Megure thought to himself.

"Kid, we've found Mrs. Yamashita's motive and evidence for the murder."

"Please, you don't even know the real cause of Yamashita's death. Is it too ridiculous to assume that Yamashita's wife is the murderer based on a will that even Yamashita's wife agreed to?"

Lin Tian had already read the memories in Yamashita's mind when she was taken away by Sato Miwako. The so-called will was actually something that Yamashita had proposed to Yamashita again.

"We have preliminarily determined the cause of death. Without a further autopsy by a forensic doctor, the case is not yet closed, and we cannot disclose further details."

Inspector Megure looked at Lin Tian with a stern expression, refusing to reveal their preliminary cause of death in front of the reporters.

After all, the actual autopsy report hasn't been released yet, so they can't easily reveal their inferences.

"Is that so? Then you can investigate thoroughly." Lin Tian chuckled at Inspector Megure.

He then turned his gaze to the reporters present and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am a detective who is just doing this out of interest. Today, I have come across such a brutal and inhumane murder case here."

They definitely won't ignore it. I just found the murderers. They are the clown who was selling balloons just now, and Inst, the eternally child whom the deceased adopted from the orphanage.

"What? You must be joking. How could an eight-year-old girl kill someone?"

"And what's with the clown selling balloons?"

When everyone saw Lin Tian's astonishing statement, they immediately looked at him as if he were a madman.

They wouldn't believe such an absurd truth.

"That's enough! If you cause any more trouble here, I have the right to arrest you!"

Inspector Megure stared at Lin Tian with a grim face.

"Is that so, Officer? I think you should listen to the prisoner's statement before drawing any conclusions."

Lin Tian raised his hand and snapped his fingers. The two unconscious bodies standing at the back of the crowd suddenly came to life and walked into the crowd.

“Officer, we confess! I added wormwood pollen, which can cause Mr. Yamashita’s allergy, to the balloons I was selling. Then I had Keiko pop the balloons at the right time to trigger Mr. Yamashita’s asthma.”

"That bottle of chlorine-filled spray was what I prepared. In my mother's panic, I replaced the real medical spray..."

The middle-aged man and Keiko Yamashita, as if they had suddenly repented, began to recount their crimes.

"You're only eight years old. Why are you doing this?"

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure pointed at Keiko Yamashita and said angrily that he never expected an eight-year-old girl to cruelly murder her adoptive father.

“I’m 31 this year…” After saying that, Keiko Yamashita took off her braces, revealing two rows of decayed, yellow teeth that only the elderly have.

"Ah! A 31-year-old girl, could it be that rare disease?"

A reporter, looking at Keiko Yamashita's yellow teeth, couldn't help but shout.

"I remember now..."

"That's an extremely rare disease; I never imagined our country had it too..."

......

At this moment, Inspector Megure's understanding was once again refreshed.

Looking at the two prisoners who sincerely confessed their crimes, he finally revealed the reason why he killed Mr. Yamashita and framed Mrs. Yamashita: they had actually left all their property to Yamashita's own son.

Her adopted daughter didn't receive a single penny. Outraged, Keiko Yamashita conspired with a friend from the orphanage 20 years ago to commit this crime.

"Where is the detective?"

After his subordinates took the two prisoners away, Inspector Megure looked around, trying to find Lin Tian.

But at this moment, Lin Tian led a tagalong into the water park.

"How did you know they were the murderers? And why did they confess willingly? The police had already identified Mrs. Yamashita as the murderer. Why?"

Conan ran up to Lin Tian, ​​blocking his way, and asked with a puzzled look.

"Just simple magic."

Lin Tian looked at Conan, a wicked smile playing on his lips.

For a powerful superhuman, influencing the minds of two ordinary people and getting them to tell the truth is not difficult.

"Is it really magic?"

Conan felt a pang of anxiety as he looked at Lin Tian's mischievous smile and tentatively asked a question.
