Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

The next day, at Kaizuka Kita Police Station, Utsumi Yui returned to the office with his tired body, and his colleagues immediately greeted him curiously.

"How is it? Is the detective introduced by your classmate okay?"

"I don't know," Neihai rubbed his sore waist, "I've been researching on the spot for a long time, but there's nothing to gain, and now there's no news."

"No way? Isn't he a well-known detective all over the country?" The colleague was surprised, "I heard that he is very popular in the main hall."

Nei Hai was exhausted from this case, and said with a wry smile: "I won't rely on any detective anymore, even though that guy is a detective, he's just a kid who has just grown up... and he's still some kind of groupie. "

"The kind of what?"

"Anyway, I'll find out the truth myself."

The colleague smiled, looked at Utsumi, who was busy, and said, "You are the only one in the police station who is still holding on to this case. I think you might as well go to an expert."

Utsumi put down the case information and asked in confusion: "Expert? Besides that sleeping Kogoro, who else in Tokyo is better than Kido Takasei?"

"I'm not talking about detectives, I'm talking about scientists. It should be better to ask scientists for things like spontaneous combustion of the human body?"

"makes sense……"

Nei Hai was a little moved when he heard the words, and was about to ask how to find it, when his cell phone rang suddenly, it was Gao Cheng's call.

"It's that little detective." Neihai showed his colleague the screen with a wry smile, then turned to answer the phone.

"Officer Neihai," Gao Cheng stood in the corridor of the office, "Can you pick me up to the scene? There are some things I want to clarify."

"Hi?"

...

The location of the Sakuragawa incident.

Gao Cheng walked back and forth by the river, investigating the scene again.

This time, even the stone ducks in the middle of the river were not spared. A stone duck had black holes in its eyes, just like the statues and bulletin boards on the bank.

"Are these holes made by cigarette butts?"

"What?" Neihai stood beside him suspiciously. Seeing that Gao Cheng still had dark circles under his eyes, he said helplessly, "You've been thinking about this for the past two days? No way, not taking a good rest is bad for your health..."

"Show me the surrounding residents."

Gao Cheng suddenly turned around and walked towards the street first, Nei Hai was stunned and quickly followed.

"and many more!"

"To be honest," several young people holding their children in the children's playground responded, "Everyone is relieved. They are all annoying guys who come to make trouble every night."

"Yeah, I couldn't take it anymore without listening to the patrol police's warning," a shop uncle complained. "If killing people is not against the law, I would have killed them long ago."

"excuse me."

Gao Cheng was walking in the alley, and behind him Kaoru Utsumi was holding a notebook to explain.

"The rest will be asked when they go home at night, but they are almost the same. The residents here really hate the victims and their companions. If there is a murderer, it is likely to be someone nearby..."

"Is there any other useful clues, even small things." Gao Cheng interrupted.

I asked a lot of people, housewives, store owners... The only thing I know is that group of bad people are hated by people nearby.

"Small things?" Nei Hai asked confusedly.

"Sometimes details that are difficult for ordinary people to pay attention to can often explain a lot of problems."

"Well," Neihai murmured, "a little girl said that she saw a red thread in the sky... Maybe she just read it from a fairy tale. A child's imagination is really rich."

"The red line?" Gao Cheng raised his elbows and thought, "If you see that girl again, please ask carefully."

"Hey, hey, hey," Neihai said tiredly, "So, does the red line in the sky have anything to do with the spontaneous combustion of the human body?"

"do not know."

"do not know?!"

"However, I have found a lot of information," Gao Cheng pondered as he walked along the street, "If this incident is a homicide, the murder weapon is likely to be a laser gun. Isn't there such a thing in sci-fi movies that can melt people down?" The dropped laser gun?"

"Laser guns? Science fiction movies?" Nei Hai stopped in his tracks with an ugly expression on his face.

"What are you kidding! You called me here and thought you found something... What on earth do you take this case for? Someone was killed! You're not even twenty years old..."

"Are you sympathizing with the delinquent who was killed?" Gao Cheng turned around calmly and looked at Utsukaido, "I'm investigating this case just to find out the truth, it doesn't mean I'm on the side of the delinquent, his life and death It has nothing to do with me."

"what?"

"I'm sorry," Gao Cheng paused, then shook his head lightly, "I'm just a kid who has just grown up, so just pretend I didn't say anything."

"Damn it!" In the evening, at Kaizuka North Police Station, Utsumi scratched his hair frantically, "That stinky brat! He just threw my sister aside!"

The colleague smiled and said, "Don't you still despise others and say you want to investigate the truth yourself?"

"It's true to say that, but it's always easier to investigate with one more person, right?"

Nei Hai took a few mouthfuls of dinner sullenly, but he didn't have any appetite, and complained to his colleagues: "I just told him to investigate seriously, so I need to drive me back? What's more, he said that bad life and death have nothing to do with him , just want to find out the truth..."

"Even a detective is only 18 years old," my colleague laughed. "Is it normal to hate bad guys? People don't think so much like you, Obasan."

"Ou, Obasan?!" Nei Hai raised his eyebrows, "I'm only 28!"

"Yeah, I'm already 28."

"Woo hoo."

...

Along the Sakuragawa River, as night falls, every house lights up.

"Excuse me!" Gao Cheng went to a Jinsen's house and rang the doorbell.

This case was indeed as troublesome as he had imagined. Unlike other cases, the method of committing the crime had gone beyond his knowledge level, and he could only use a little groping and reasoning from the side.

A man opened the door suspiciously: "Who are you?"

"Ah, hello, Officer Utsumi from Kaizuka North Police Station asked me to come here," Gao Cheng asked after discussing, "May I ask you a few questions about the previous case?"

The man looked at Gao Chengdao: "Have you already told the police what you want to say?"

"This time it's an in-depth investigation, and it's a bit different from before," Gao Cheng said with a smile, "Well, is it convenient to come in and talk?"

The man's face changed, but he still nodded to welcome Gao Cheng into the room.

"Would you like something to drink?"

"Plain water is fine, thank you."

Gao Cheng stood in the room covered with tatami mats, taking advantage of the opportunity of the man pouring water, his eyes swept over every corner.

Eye-catching bookshelves and recording equipment, everything is well organized and very tidy.

After looking around, Gao Cheng went to the window and opened the curtains.

The house was right next to the crime scene and had a clear view of the river.

"Huh?" Gao Cheng suddenly stepped on a dent, and looked down to find a rough mark on the tatami on the ground, as if he had scratched it with his feet.

"Is there any problem?" The man appeared at the door holding a water glass.

"Ah," Gao Cheng retracted his gaze and smiled, "I think this house is quite nice, and I've always wanted to have bookshelves like this... Are these recording equipment?"

"Well," the man glanced at the marks on the tatami by the window, walked to the table and knelt down, "I am volunteering to read aloud for those with impaired eyesight."

"Oh? Reading aloud volunteers."

Gao Cheng looked at the full bookshelf again, looked at the man tentatively and asked, "Were you here when the crime happened?"

The man looked away and nodded: "But because those people are making noise again, I can't read the recording aloud..." 2kReading Network
