Conan Rick's Investigator

"Me?"

Yuanshan Heye was stunned. Although she heard Qin Zhibo mention the magic dog and the stage flame, she was not good at reasoning and could not understand the deeper meaning.

But for Conan and Hattori Heiji, there is still a thorny problem.

That means Qin Zhibo also saw through the trick of "fake flame", which means Qin Zhibo also knew who the criminal was.

In this case, who gets the credit?

Hattori Heiji turned to look at Qin Zhibo and was about to ask the latter's opinion, but Qin Zhibo had already stood up and put the bowl into the sink.

"I'm done eating, you guys can do whatever you want..."

Are we free?

Hattori Heiji and Conan watched Qin Zhibo's back, and they didn't look at each other until he left the dining room.

Does this mean that the credit for this time is given to us?

……

Qin Zhibo walked out of the dining room and walked to Inufucheng's front hall.

When passing by the living room, I saw Mouri Kogoro and Yamamura Cao sorting out the case.

I saw Yamamura Cao sitting on a chair with his hands on his knees, like a child being scolded by the teacher.

He lowered his head and responded one after another. He was obviously sleepy.

On the other hand, Mouri Kogoro was still very energetic and continued to explain the contents of the case.

This kind of professionalism is still very worthy of praise.

Qin Zhibo did not come forward to disturb them, but walked directly through the living room and came to the vestibule of Inufucheng.

Throwing the [Hook Claw] towards the wall, and then using his strength to kick against the wall, he left Inubushi Castle.

Leaving Quanfu City at this time is naturally to search for what Qin Zhibo believes to be the "truth".

I just read the seven chapters of Xuanjun's secret scripture and found out that the strange bead is Liaodan, which has the function of allowing the user's consciousness to travel back in time and space.

And when Shinichi Kudo died, he happened to be holding this bead in his hand.

Whether this was Shinichi Kudo's own wish or forced in by the murderer,

All of this indicates that the origin of this bead is Inufu City.

This reminded Qin Zhibo of the old man he met on the way here who gave directions to the group.

The old man warned them not to go to Inufu City, otherwise they would be caught up by the "demon dog" and end up in a tragic end.

At first, Qin Zhibo thought it was the story told by Yukihime - the head of the Inubushi family in the Meiji period accidentally killed a loyal dog and died in a fire.

But now it seems that the story told by the old man and the story told by Xing Ji are probably not the same version.

Because the old man mentioned "catching up".

Overtaken, most likely refers to being overtaken by the Hounds of Tindalos.

Judging from the antiquity of the book Xuanjun Seven Chapters Secret Scripture itself, it is likely that this book was the property of the Inubushi family in the past.

So what exactly is the "legend" that the old man is talking about?

Qin Zhibo's intuition tells him that this is very likely to allow him to solve all the mysteries...

Judging from the old man walking alone on the mountain road with a crutch, his home should be nearby, not far from Inufushi Castle.

Qin Zhibo took out the [Mountain Bike] from the system toolbar, sat down on the seat, and then began to cast the finding spell.

During the day, the old man’s iconic face, like a dead tree, was still vivid in his mind.

Qin Zhibo's thoughts moved slightly, and a clear direction appeared in his mind.

He opened his eyes suddenly, turned the front of the car and rode firmly in that direction.

……

Half an hour later, a small house in the woods near the foot of the mountain appeared in front of us.

Compared with the grandeur and luxury of Inubushi City, this house is not much better than the cabin on the edge of the swamp. It is like being exiled.

The house lights were out.

But it's natural, after all, it's almost two o'clock in the middle of the night.

Qin Zhibo parked his bicycle, walked to the door of the room and knocked gently.

Tuk, Tuk, Tuk...

After knocking more than ten times in a row, the windows of the house lit up, and at the same time an old voice came.

"Who is it... in the middle of the night?"

Qin Zhibo quickly responded, "I'm sorry to disturb your rest. I was going to Inufu City during the day, and we met on the way..."

"Could you please open the door now? I need to consult you about something."

Qin Zhibo's tone was very polite and he also used honorifics.

The old man in the room paused and asked, "What's going on? Someone died in the Inufushi family again?"

"You guessed right, someone did die..."

Seeing the old man's interest, Qin Zhibo took advantage of the situation and continued, "So I want to ask you about the legend you told me during the day about the curse of the demon dog in Inufu City."

“Is that so…”

The old man hesitated for a moment, then moved to the door and opened it.

He looked up at Qin Zhibo and murmured, "It's rare for a young person to want to listen to an old man like me. Come in..."

"Thanks."

Qin Zhibo followed the old man into the room and closed the door behind him.

……

In Quanfu City, the lights gradually went out.

After a whole night of investigating the case, although the murderer has not yet been found, it is still time to sleep.

The Inubushi family is large enough to have guest rooms for everyone.

Yamamura didn't want to stay overnight in the mansion where the demon dog was infested, so he drove back in the police car.

Mao Lilan, Yuan Shan and Ye were also afraid of the devil dog, so they insisted that they all sleep together in Datongbu, so that they could feel more at ease.

But despite this, after having the experience of directly attacking the devil dog, Mao Lilan, whose willpower was only 40, was still too scared to sleep.

It seems as if there is a demon dog appearing outside the thin sliding door of the guest room at all times.

What's even more unfortunate is that the more you dare not go out, the worse your health will be.

"Kazuha, Kazuha..."

Mao Lilan gently pushed Yuanshan and

leaf.

Yuan Shan and Ye were a little bolder than Mao Lilan and had already fallen asleep for most of the time.

She looked at her best friend sleepily, "Xiaolan, what's wrong?"

"Um..." Mao Lilan showed an embarrassed look, "Can you accompany me to the bathroom?"

"OK."

Kazuha didn't complain. Just as he was about to get up, Mouri Kogoro on the other side complained in a rough voice.

"Really? You're not a child, are you afraid to go to the bathroom by yourself?"

The two girls looked at Mouri Kogoro and were surprised to find that Mouri Kogoro was not sleeping either. He was resting his head on his arms and seemed to be resting with his eyes closed.

Mao Lilan blushed a little and quickly explained: "But we were just attacked by a demon dog in this yard..."

"Yeah, the demon dog might appear in the house again. It's scary just thinking about it." Toyama Kazuha also helped Mao Lilan explain, "And by the way, uncle, aren't you still awake?"

Upon hearing this, Mouri Kogoro opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling, choosing not to talk.

Of course, he himself is not afraid of the devil dog, because he firmly believes that any evil will eventually be brought to justice.

However, the appearance of the devil dog in the mansion, and the fact that Mao Lilan and Toyama Kazuye were the ones who picked the dogs to feed, still made him frightened.

In order to prevent the murderer from committing crimes again at night, he chose to stay vigil.

Except when he is unreliable, Mouri Kogoro is still a reliable adult.

"Well, you're still a little concerned about the case, right?"

Mouri Kogoro hesitated, then turned to look at the two beds on the other side.

Those are the beds of Hattori Heiji and Conan respectively.

Both of them had their bodies hidden on their backs, but these voices did not wake them up. They seemed to be sleeping soundly.

"But the four-eyed brat and the Osaka detective weren't affected at all and were sleeping soundly..."

"Of course..." Mao Lilan explained to her old father, "They seem to have already known who the murderer is..."

When Mouri Kogoro heard this, his body stood up as if he was electrified.

"What!"

"Do they know who the murderer is?"

"Have they already known which of these adopted children is the murderer?"

Mouri Kogoro repeated it again in disbelief.

Because even Qin Zhibo, who had always been far ahead of others in solving the case, did not say anything about this case.

Just those two brats?

Toyama Kazuha nodded, "Yes, Heiji also said that the quiz show I showed him was very helpful to him."

"A quiz show?"

"What kind of quiz show is this!"

Mouri Kogoro, who also wanted to solve the case quickly, asked Toyama and Ye anxiously.

But at this moment, turbulent footsteps came from the corridor at the door of the guest room.

Chapter 1237 Detective Version Legend and Investigator Version Legend

Hearing the commotion coming from the corridor, Mouri Kogoro rushed out immediately, and then closed the sliding door with his backhand.

In the corridor, Inufukaoko and Inufuchen were also having a conversation.

"What happened?" Kogoro Mouri walked forward and asked with a serious face.

Kaozi's expression seemed a little frightened, and he replied, "Just now, my mother seemed to have woken up and even crawled out from under the quilt..."

"Ms. Suchen is awake?"

"Yeah, but now I've fainted again..."

Kaozi turned to Zenya and said, "Mr. Zenya, please go and call the others. I feel like my mother is about to explain that matter..."

Upon hearing "that thing", Zenya's eyes were shocked and he quickly turned around and walked to the other side of the corridor.

That matter may naturally be the division of the inheritance that everyone in the Inubushi family is currently concerned about.

When Suo Chen was still sober, he once said that he would divide the inheritance into 8 equal parts for each of his adopted children.

But now that her four adopted children have passed away before her, the issue of inheritance division must also be reconsidered.

Mouri Kogoro followed Inufukako and rushed to Saomi's bedroom first.

In the guest room, Mao Lilan and Yuanshan Kazuye, who were separated by the sliding door, heard the conversation outside and learned that Ms. Suo Chen, who had been offline, might have woken up.

Although they only came here temporarily, out of politeness, they should still go and visit.

Thinking of this, the two girls crawled to Hattori Heiji and Conan's beds respectively, trying to wake them up.
