Conan Rick's Investigator

In other words, the brain in front of us is now in a state of "knowing everything and telling it."

"What's your name?"

"Yoshito Matsunaka."

"Why are you in the Angel's House?"

"I am the steward of Angel's Mansion and the secretary of Mr. Yin Shichuan... Before his death, Mr. Yin Shichuan entrusted his will to me. I will stay here until the will is completed."

Such a young secretary?

Qin Zhibo was a little confused, but he also knew that his "brain" would not lie.

Qin Zhibo asked again: "What is the content of the will?"

The brain replied calmly, "It's a puzzle. The master left a puzzle. He asked all descendants who have the right to inherit the property to come and solve it according to the order of succession. Whoever solves the puzzle will inherit the master's entire property."

Puzzle?

Qin Zhibo was just about to ask what the puzzle was about when Minase Yangmeng suddenly flew back through the wall.

"somebody is coming!"

After receiving the message, Qin Zhibo quickly turned off the machine, returned all the buttons to their original positions, and without saying a word, turned around and went into the fireplace passage.

Considering that the other party might be a Mi-GO, and the MI-Go clan has telepathy, no one can hide nearby, and invisibility is useless, Qin Zhibo simply ran into the passage.

But after running for a while, he saw something on the ground. It was so dark that he could hardly see it clearly, but there was a light on it, which reminded Qin Zhibo that there was something there.

"This is the corpse I'm talking about!" Minase Yangmeng, who has night vision, reminded in time.

Qin Zhibo stopped and took out a nuclear lighter to observe it carefully.

It was a corpse piled with bones, its head facing the direction of the fireplace exit in the passage.

【Survey√】

[Corpse completion is less than 70%, unable to be investigated]

The investigation failed, possibly because the body was already highly skeletalized.

But according to Qin Zhibo's observation, although the corpse had completely turned to bones, the clothes wrapped around it did not look very worn, and did not look like they had been left there for at least a few years.

Moreover, there was no hair left on the body. Normal corpse decay would not cause even the hair to completely disappear.

Qin Zhibo moved the nuclear lighter closer and saw that the skull of the corpse was completely split into two halves.

This is not a natural crack, but a man-made cut. The cut is very flat, without even a hint of jerkyness.

"This corpse..."

Qin Zhibo murmured, guessing in his heart that the identity of this corpse was probably the "brain" just now, Matsunaka Yoshito.

Judging from the incision on the skull, human surgical precision cannot achieve such a smooth incision, it looks like a plastic model.

"Yang Meng, did you see clearly what the person who just came looked like?" Qin Zhibo stood up and asked.

Minase Yangmeng shook her head. "I came back as soon as I heard the voice. I didn't see what she looked like..."

"Then go up and take a look at who that person is."

Qin Zhibo sent the ghost Minase Yangmeng away again to collect intelligence, while he himself studied the corpse underground.

After a while, Minase Yangmeng floated back, shouting.

"I see clearly!"

"That person turned out to be the 'person' released from the machine just now!"

Minase Yangmeng's expression was not quite accurate, but Qin Zhibo understood it.

The person above is "Yoshito Matsunaka".

But considering that the real Yoshito Matsunaka now only has a brain left, the one above should be Mi-GO, disguised as Yoshito Matsunaka.

"Is that 'person' still up there now?"

"No, he packed all the machines and brains into a box and drove away..."

Ok?

Qin Zhibo was a little puzzled. This guy not only knew racial skills such as surgery and human disguise, but also human skills such as driving.

I'm afraid it's a MI-GO of a fairly high rank...

Could it be this?

Chapter 925: Encounter with the Young BaiGui Group

Teitan Elementary School, Beikacho, Tokyo.

The elementary school students finished school early on Wednesday. It was only 2 o'clock in the afternoon and they were already having fun on the playground.

Amidst all the laughter and joy, there was only one figure that seemed a little "rebellious".

Ai Haibara leaned against the sports equipment near the school gate, looking directly at the mother who came to pick up her child at the school gate. There was an indescribable sense of fragility between her brows.

"Ugh……"

Haibara Ai lowered her eyebrows and sighed weakly, but was caught by Conan who had been watching her from the side.

"Huh? Why is the elementary school student sighing?" Conan walked over with his schoolbag and asked jokingly.

Haibara Ai glanced at the smiling Conan, then turned her face away angrily, as if saying, "What do you care?"

Huiyuan Ai: (｀^′) Humph~

Conan: (￢?￢) Hey~

Conan has long been accustomed to Haibara Ai's personality, and now he occasionally goes up to her and teases her.

This is the behavior that only happens between friends, which shows that Conan has gradually regarded Haibara Ai as a friend with whom he can share his daily life.

When Haibara Ai first came to Dr. Agasa's house and revealed her identity after school, Conan remained quite wary of Haibara Ai.

After all, he was once a scientist of the Black Organization and studied the evil APTX-4869. Even if he defected, he cannot be directly classified as a good person.

Maybe he's just another bad guy who doesn't fit in with the organization's philosophy...

However, after all the events of this month, Conan's understanding of Haibara Ai has gradually deepened.

Female, 18 years old, pessimistic, sometimes fearless, sometimes weak, sometimes arrogant, sometimes humble, always harboring many "unspeakable secrets" in her heart...

In the Haido Hotel incident, Conan saw that Haibara Ai was forced to engage in poison research.

During the Full Moon Night incident, Conan saw Haibara Ai's determination to sacrifice for her friends.

Even though she was as cowardly as she was, and was trembling all over with fear at the sight of Gin's car, she still dared to block the gun of fate.

After several times, Conan's mentality gradually changed. He no longer regarded her as a "tool" who could provide continuous intelligence, but as someone he really wanted to protect.

Of course, this protection is based on the maintenance of fairness and justice, as well as a bit of sympathy and compassion among friends.

Because of this, after school, the other three kids were waiting in the classroom to see if anyone would come to commission the Junior Detective Team. Only he quietly followed Haibara Ai downstairs and protected her secretly.

Based on the last intelligence analysis, Conan guessed that the next person to attack Haibara Ai would be "Michael", Haibara Ai's brother-in-law.

Although he is my brother-in-law, he probably won't kill me, but we can't take it lightly.

Conan also hopes to work together with his brother-in-law to wipe out the Black Organization, this evil nest.

Of course, Conan went downstairs with his schoolbag on his back, and he believed from the bottom of his heart that the Junior Detective Team would not accept the commission.

The three little ones wait in the classroom every day after school for commissions to come, but in fact they are just playing Kamen Rider cards in the classroom.

But today is a little different——

"Conan! Gather! Gather—"

Genta Kojima shouted at the playground from upstairs in his shrill hoarse voice, and Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya next to him also echoed him.

"Someone has commissioned the Junior Detective Team to handle the case! The point is, she really... hehe~"

As he spoke, Mitsuhiko smiled embarrassedly, and the blush on his face revealed the reason for his smile.

……

When they went upstairs, Conan and Haibara Ai saw the little client this time, a little brown-haired girl with twin ponytails.

"Hello..."

"I'm Yuriko Matsunaka from the next class. Please take care of me."

The little girl bowed to several people very formally. She seemed to have been well-educated. Her quiet voice and shy expression made Genta and Mitsuhiko very moved.

Yuanta whispered devilishly into Conan's ear, "How is it? It's super cute, right? It makes me full of motivation~"

Conan, who looks like a child but has a mind that is above average, is helpless and can only say "hmm" in boredom.

Compared to Genta, who overestimates his own abilities and insists on poking fun at the handsome Conan to lower his own competitiveness, Mitsuhiko silently admires him with a slightly flushed face.

Ayumi observed the boys' expressions with a squint, pouting, and not hiding her disgust at all.

Just like what is shown in TV dramas, men are really all pigs!

Genta and Mitsuhiko, the Tongkong is already full of new girls.

Conan...Conan was not mesmerized!

Conan is the best after all!

Ayumi became even more certain of the object of her admiration in her heart and smiled sweetly.

After observing silently for a while, Haibara Ai was amused by the pure relationship between men and women unique to this age group, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

After waiting for a while and seeing that no one spoke, Conan was the first to ask.

"Matsunaka-san, what can I ask of you?"

"Well..." Matsunaka Yuriko replied timidly, "Can we go to a nearby park to talk about it?"

Before Conan could ask why, Genta and Mitsuhiko had already agreed with a "yes, yes" and even quickly put on their backpacks.

CONAN: These guys...

There was no way, the thin arms could not twist the big thick legs, so the Junior Detective Team had to change the venue first.

……

After a while, the Junior Detective Team and Yuriko Matsunaka came to the nearby Beika Park. They found a stone table and sat down to continue discussing the commission.

"Well, my mom passed away last year due to illness, and my dad also died in a car accident not long after I was born. I'm now being adopted by an orphanage."

"I always thought I had no relatives in this world. But just a few days ago, a person who was said to be a relative of my mother's found me.

"The man introduced himself as 'Clock'..."

"Clock?" Hearing this strange name, Conan couldn't help but ask, "Is it the clock of that clock?"

"Yes." Yuriko Matsunaka nodded.

"He had no first or last name, just 'Clock'."

"Mr. Zhong said that my mother had a grandfather, my great-grandfather, named Yin Shichuan Gangsan. He was a stock investor and seemed to have made a lot of money from stocks."

"But Mr. Clock said that my great-grandfather also died last winter and left a will."

"The will is a puzzle. As long as the heir can solve the puzzle within 24 hours, they can obtain all of my great-grandfather's property. Otherwise, they will lose the inheritance right forever."

"Mr. Zhong also said that all the previous heirs who challenged the puzzle ended in failure. Now it's my turn, the 17th heir..."

"I was a little scared at first. The adults didn't know how to solve the puzzle, and I, a little kid..."

"But Mr. Zhong said that my elementary school has an outstanding young detective team, and that even if I seek help from outsiders, it would still comply with the rules of the will..."

After hearing this, the members of the Junior Detective League finally understood the real reason why Yuriko Matsunaka came to them.

"So it was that 'Clock' who asked you to come and discuss this with us?" Yuantai asked.

"Yeah." Yuriko Matsuzaka nodded weakly.

This made Genta and Mitsuhiko feel both excited and disappointed.

The excitement was that the reputation of the "Junior Detective Team" was so widespread that even the adults outside had heard of it.
