Conan Rick's Investigator

It's just that the two of them did not notice the murderer's existence at that time, but the guilty murderer thought that the two of them saw him.

So...

Thinking of this, Conan hurriedly wanted to ask Kogoro Mouri next to him to go to Dr. Chengji's house to confirm the situation.

But at this time, Kogoro Mori was surrounded by a group of people.

Just now, Masato Shimizu, the fishermen representative and the last candidate for village chief, arrived, and the families and supporters of Tatsuji Kuroiwa and Hideo Kawashima began to besiege Masato Shimizu again.

Because during the village chief election, Masato Shimizu's support rate always ranked third.

But if the first two are missing, then he will naturally become the village chief.

Of course, Shimizu Masato completely denied this groundless accusation.

"Now the famous detective Maori Kogoro is here, he can prove my innocence!"

"Isn't that right, Mr. Maori?"

Masato Shimizu, who had clearly said that he didn't know Kogoro Mori the day before yesterday, is now holding Kogoro Mori's arm tightly, just like you who doesn't pray at ordinary times but only seeks help from Buddha in an emergency.

"Um...well..."

Kogoro Mouri scratched his head in embarrassment, because even he himself felt that Masato Shimizu was a suspicious person.

Seeing that Kogoro Mouri was unable to get away for the time being, Conan turned to the confused onlooker nearby - Ran Mouri.

"Sister Xiaolan! Mr. Qin and Dr. Chengshi may be in danger!"

Hearing this, Ran Mouri immediately became serious and ran towards Asai Narimi's house with Conan at full speed.

……

Conan ran to the door of Asai Narumi's house and rushed forward to knock on the door hard.

"Qin Zhibo!"

"Doctor Chengshi!"

I called out his name twice and knocked on the door a few times, but there was no response from inside.

At this time, Conan already had a bad feeling in his heart.

Because when Conan passed by the clinic just now, he noticed that the clinic was closed today.

At this time, the voice of Mao Lilan came from behind.

"Get out of the way! Conan!"

Conan looked back and saw Ran Mouri in a standard karate charging stance, ready to break in.

Conan: Slipped away...

Make room for Mao Lilan, and Mao Lilan is ready to kick.

However, at this moment, the door lock clicked and a person walked out.

"Are you...going to demolish the house?"

Ran Mouri and Conan were dumbfounded when they saw Qin Zhibo, who looked calm.

How could this be?

Isn't that how it should be?

Conan was shocked that Qin Zhibo was not killed by him, and Mao Lilan had already introduced her purpose to Qin Zhibo.

After listening, Qin Zhibo nodded, and he understood.

"Dr. Cheng Shi and I are safe. If you don't believe me, you can come in and take a look."

Mao Lilan glanced at the entrance of the house and found that the curtains were still drawn. She shook her head and said embarrassedly: "No, no, we just..."

Before Mao Lilan could finish her words, Conan had already used his height advantage to bypass Qin Zhibo's legs and ran into the house.

"Hey!"

"Conan!"

……

Conan is never polite when others allow him to search a house.

This is what you asked me to search for. I have seen many requests like this in my life, and I agree to them every time.

And there must be a reason why Asai Narumi didn't go to work today.

Conan ran straight to the inner room and was stunned as soon as he entered the bedroom.

Chapter 103 The Brothers' Reasoning Show

Asai Narumi on the bed seemed to be very scared and wrapped the quilt tightly from the neck down, leaning against the pillow to greet Conan.

"Hi...Conan."

What surprised Conan was not that Asai Narimi was still alive, but that Asai Narimi looked extremely pale.

His face was pale, almost bloodless, his hair was disheveled, and he looked very listless.

This……

"Doctor Chengshi, are you sick?"

"Hmm... well, it's a little bit, ahem..."

Asai Narumi coughed twice, and Ran Mouri, who had just changed into slippers and came in, saw it. She immediately wanted to use her MAX level of caring attributes.

"Let me take care of you, Miss Chengshi."

"Is it a fever? Let me try."

After saying that, Mao Lilan walked forward and used her forehead to touch the temperature to measure the patient's temperature.

Seeing that Mao Lilan was so enthusiastic, Qin Zhibo of course had to stop her.

"I've already given her the medicine. Now she just needs to rest quietly."

Conan glanced at the bedside table and saw two opened boxes of medicine on it.

"Oh, is that so." Mao Lilan nodded with relief, and then said, "Then I will stay and take care of Miss Cheng Shi."

"I'm a woman, so it would be easier for me to take care of Miss Chengshi."

"Also, there's a new case in the village. Mr. Kuroiwa and Mr. Kawashima are missing. Mr. Qin, can you help with the investigation?"

Ran Mao Li is full of love, but Qin Zhibo naturally cannot let Ran Mao Li stay to take care of Ma Sheng Shi.

Otherwise, the gender issue will definitely be exposed.

"No need, I can take care of her."

"As for the missing person case, I'll look into it once her condition stabilizes."

Mr. Qin will personally take care of Dr. Cheng Shi...

Ran Mouri and Conan squeezed their eyes wide open again.

But having said this, Ran Mouri and Conan felt embarrassed to continue disturbing her, so they left with red faces.

Only after the two left did Asai Narumi dare to take off the quilt wrapped around him. Hidden under the quilt was his faintly visible Adam's apple and his flat chest.

"It seems the villagers haven't noticed that Nishimoto Kenya is missing yet, but it's only a matter of time before they find him."

Qin Zhibo was thinking about the next plan in his mind.

At this moment, Ma Sheng, who was lying on the bed, said weakly, "Did something happen last night?"

Ever since waking up, Asami has had a very vague memory of last night.

I only remember that I went there with the determination to die, and faced the black muzzle of Kawashima Hideo's gun in the ruins of the fire.

Afterwards, Masami had a strange dream.

In the dream, on an orange-yellow planet, a king in ragged yellow clothes was in a lost ancient city.

She was indescribably majestic, like a Father God, and she reached out her hand to him...

Just as Masashi was losing consciousness because he recalled the strange scenes in his dream again, Qin Zhibo grabbed his shoulders.

"If you believe me, don't think about it, and don't explore it..."

"Otherwise you'll be lost in it!"

"Understand?"

Looking at Qin Zhibo's extremely serious face, the confused Ma Chengshi nodded.

When he touched Ma Chengshi's shoulder, Qin Zhibo once again investigated his current will.

[Will: 40]

Unlike his own roller coaster-like will, Ma Shengshi's will was permanently damaged.

……

After confirming the safety of Qin Zhibo and Dr. Cheng Shi, Conan and Mao Lilan returned to the community center again.

At the community center, under the mediation of Kogoro Mori, everyone agreed to mobilize the entire village's manpower to search for the missing persons.

However, during the mobilization process, the villagers discovered that Ken Nishimoto was also missing.

Since Ken Nishimoto lives alone and his residence is somewhat remote, it was not discovered until now.

Kogoro Mouri immediately went to Ken Nishimoto's house to investigate, and as expected, with Conan's reminder, he found the phone on the table.

"Uncle, maybe there's some information on the phone?"

"Oh... um."

Kogoro Mouri obediently picked up the phone and easily found two text messages sent by Ken Nishimoto to Tatsuji Kuroiwa and Hideo Kawashima.

The content of the text message was naturally a meeting appointment between the three of them, and the meeting place was on the top of a mountain west of the village.

However, when Kogoro Mori announced the results of his investigation, the faces of the surrounding villagers all looked very ugly, and they whispered to each other.

"Excuse me, what's going on?" Kogoro Mouri asked the old policeman next to him in confusion.

The old policeman explained, "Actually, the top of the west mountain is where Aso Keiji's family lived. It's been abandoned since the fire twelve years ago."

"The villagers think it's a spooky place and don't dare go there."

After listening to the explanation of the old policeman, Kogoro Mouri became even more determined.

"That's right!"

"From the text messages, it seems they're conducting some shady business. They're very afraid of the police and a famous detective like me, so they must have chosen to meet in a place ordinary people wouldn't go."

"That's it, let's go!"

Conan admired Kogoro Mouri's courage this time, and even Conan could not think of any obvious loopholes in Kogoro Mouri's reasoning this time.

But somehow, Conan always felt that everything was going too smoothly...

Why didn't Nishimoto Ken carry his cell phone with him? He left it at home, waiting to be discovered.

It seems that we can only find the three missing people first and then figure out what is going on.

……

After reaching the top of the west mountain, it didn't take long for the villagers to find Kuroiwa Tatsuji and Nishimoto Ken at the former site of Keiji Aso's home.

There was no need for a careful autopsy to tell that both men were dead from the bullet holes on their foreheads.

"Xiaolan! Call the police immediately!"

Ran Mouri did her job - calling the police, while Kogoro Mouri also did his job - performing an autopsy.

"The time of death was at least ten hours, which means it was around midnight."

"The two men must have been shot by the same person. Of the three, only Kawashima Hideo is not here, so the culprit can only be him..."

Kogoro Mouri was performing an autopsy while Conan was looking at the surrounding grass with his hands in his pockets.

The grass on the old site was unusually messy, as if it had been blown by a strong wind, but there should have been no strong wind on the entire island yesterday.
