Saturday, February 21, evening, Takashi Ishida's house.

Behind the account books, forensic personnel found a recording from the previous night in Takashi Ishida's mobile phone, which was no longer powered.

"Ishida, I'm telling you, no matter what you say, I won't be working with you anymore, unless you're willing to share less. ”

"What's the less?"

"You can only take what you sell, and only 30%. ”

"It's impossible, I want at least half of the benefits. ”

"Then there's no need to talk about it, now the network is very developed, I can sell those pets through the Internet, so I don't need you at all, I also look at our previous partnership, this is a discount for you." ”

"Ha, if you want to get rid of me and do it alone, let me tell you, what you just said, I have already recorded it, as long as I process it and hand it over to the police......"

"Bastard, give me my phone. ”

"Don't give. ”

"Do you give ...... or not"

Something was knocked over during the scramble, and the phone was dropped somewhere.

"Ah, damn it, I got stung, quick, get me to the hospital. ”

"The African king scorpion is not poisonous, why are you so nervous?"

"Bastard, I'm allergic. ”

"Really?"

"What am I lying to you for? I'm not feeling good right now, take me to the hospital. ”

"Then tell me first who you are through and where you are getting the goods. ”

"You want to do it on your own? ”

"Then let's spend it, and see who consumes whom. ”

"Bastard ......"

"Scold, scold, you scold slowly, I'll clean up here first. ”

Then there was the sound of tidying up, and then Takashi Ishida asked, "Hey, Shirai, how many unicorns do you have here, is that just this one?"

"Hey, Shirai, you speak. ”

"Bai, Baijing, please, you, don't scare me. ”

"Ahh

"No, it's out of gas. ”

"Plop. ”

Takashi Ishida seemed to sit on the ground with his butt on his shoulder, and after a long while, he muttered, "How, what to do......"

And at this point, the recording is gone.

Officer Chiba said, "It seems that the phone was out of battery at that time. ”

"Now the whole thing is clear. Officer Sato said, "Mr. Shirai and Mr. Ishida had a conflict over the sharing of profits from pet trafficking, and during a scuffle, they overturned the pet box containing the African king scorpion, and Mr. Shirai was accidentally stung by the African king scorpion, and Mr. Ishida died when he saw him die. ”

Officer Chiba said, "There is also a pet box containing two unicorns, one of which has escaped somewhere in the room. ”

Officer Takagi said, "That's because Mr. Ishida didn't look for it in a panic, and then he went home and packed his things to escape, but in a panic, he overturned the pet box containing the golden scorpion, and was stung by the frightened golden scorpion and poisoned to death." ”

"yes, that's how the whole thing should be. Officer Chiba said, "It's a pity that I don't know who the upper family is." ”

Officer Sato said, "Mr. Ishida kept his mobile phone on after that, probably just to record the name of the family, but he didn't record the name, but he helped us figure out the whole thing. ”

Officer Takagi laughed, "He must have forgotten in a hurry." ”

Officer Chiba smiled, "Anyway, we can call it a day, and we still have time to have a drink." ”

"Before we go, we have to send Conan and the four children home. Officer Sato said helplessly.

"Hey, hey. The four of Conan laughed dryly. ……

Night, Miyamoto family.

Oda Nobumi conducted a video conversation via satellite from Zayir, Africa, "My lord, the Divine Organization slaughtered a village of more than 200 people in Uganda today, and the Uganda side hopes that Zayir will send troops to jointly encircle and suppress the Divine Organization, and President Zayir hopes that Ishimine Hoya will send people to participate in the battle. ”

"We don't participate in this kind of formal action, but we can lend them equipment. Yamazaki said, "If the little president wants us to participate, you can ask him to pay for the mercenary mission, and whoever wants to go will go." ”

"Yes, sir. Oda Nobumi said.

Miyamoto Miyako asked, "Is Africa in chaos right now?"

"The main problem at the moment is that the conflict in the countries of Northwest Africa has been exacerbated by drought, and the reason why Royal Dutch Shell announced production cuts two days ago is largely because of this, especially the conflict in the Nigeria Delta, which has shut down all the local oil and gas platforms," Oda said. ”

"The second is the Somali civil war in East Africa, and the third is the inter-ethnic conflict in Darfur between Central Sudan and South Sudan. ”

"In addition, the Salafester Voice and Militant Organization in northern Africa and the Divine Organization in southern Africa are two large organizations that cross regions and cause headaches for various countries, and there are hundreds of opposition forces in African countries, large and small, and there are many armed underground and semi-underground forces caused by corruption. ”

"In our refugee camps, we are now reporting tens of thousands of people every month, and the chaos in Africa in general is getting worse. ”

"The U.S.-led coalition is strengthening cooperation with a number of African countries and is preparing to meddle in North and East Africa in the name of counterterrorism. ”

"That's about it. ”

"It sounds like a mess. ”

"Then let's stop here. Yamazaki said. ……

Sunday, February 22, afternoon, Ginza.

Ran and Mei Daiko are asked by Sonoko to go shopping, and Yamazaki follows them, and on the way, Yamazaki and the three find Ran looking sullen.

However, after asking, I realized that Lan was actually worried about the duty problem.

Mei Daizi asked puzzledly, "What's wrong with this?"

"That's it, that's the ......," Lan couldn't say.

"Ah, I see. Yuan Zi laughed, "It must be the one." ”

Midaiko asked, "What?"

"That's it," Yuan Zi said with a smile, "Lan's biggest fear, there has been a legend recently that the school is haunted." ”

"Really, and that kind of thing?" asked Midaiko.

"It's true, wasn't there an accident at the school before? The deceased was a male classmate named Hideaki Hosaka. "Four strange things have happened about him lately. ”

"What is it?" asked Midaiko.

"Afternoon tea, please. "The garden took the opportunity to increase the size.

"Forget it. Mei Daiko smiled, "Anyway, I don't believe that there are ghosts in our school, and I don't believe that you can endure the garden." ”

"Hey, you have to pay for the ticket to listen to the story. The garden protested.

"Not really. Mei Daizi smiled proudly.

"Okay, I'll bear with it. Yuan Zi gritted his teeth and said.

"Please. Mei Daizi smiled, "Nalan, you can say it yourself, at most my brother and I will accompany you on duty." ”

"Okay, that's it. Lan said.

"Look. Mei Daiko smiled at the garden.

"Damn. The garden complained.

"First of all," Lan said, a little frightened, "in the crying classroom, someone in the empty warehouse, heard the crying. ”

Midaiko asked, "What does it matter?"

"The chair where Hideaki Hosaka sat before his death was in that warehouse, and the name engraved by Hideaki Hosaka was on the table. Sonoko said in an eerie tone, "It must be Hideaki Hosaka who is crying." ”

"Nine times out of ten," Yamazaki laughs, "the windows of the warehouse where the miscellaneous items are stored are not as large as the windows of the classrooms, the windows are small, and when the wind blows, there is a whirring sound of the wind." ”

"That's how it should be. Mei Daiko said.

"That's right. Lan said.

"Then the second thing," said Sonoko, "the books in the library, the last books that Hideaki Hosaka borrowed before his death, have recently appeared under the desk in the library. ”

"Needless to say, someone must have played a prank. Mei Daiko said.

"That's right, it's a prank," Sonoko said in an eerie tone, "it's just the ghost of Hideaki Hosaka, otherwise it wouldn't be just a book borrowed by Hideaki Hosaka." ”

"Garden. Lan said with some fear.

"Let's go through this article first, it's not clear now. Yamazaki said.

"The third thing, the staircase of the damned. Sonoko said in an eerie tone, "It's the staircase where Hideaki Hosaka slipped and fell to his death, and there are thirteen steps. ”

"Thirteen stairs?" said Mei Daiko with a smile, "Don't make me laugh, because the number thirteen is unlucky, so the stairs in the school are twelve." ”

"That's why it's a curse. "When you step on the thirteenth step, you're in another world." ”

Mei Daizi smiled: "You have read too many novels. ”

Yuanzi said: "No, this is what Lan is most worried about." ”

"Uh-huh. Lan nodded worriedly.

Mei Daizi smiled: "Okay, really, we'll accompany you tomorrow." ”

"Thank you then. Lan said happily.

Yamazaki asked, "Sonoko, what else is there?"

"The fourth thing, the staircase where the accident happened, the floor is always wet. Sonoko said in an eerie tone, "Those are the tears of Hideaki Hosaka's ghost." ”

Mei Daizi smiled: "Ha, then he can really cry." ”

"Okay, let's have afternoon tea, that's it. Yamazaki said. ……

The next day, Monday, February 23rd, morning, Maori House.

Lan's exclamation woke up Conan and Maori, and the two rushed over to take a look, only to find that Lan was just having a nightmare, and he couldn't cry or laugh for a while.

At breakfast, Conan asked, "Sister Lan, what did you dream about in the morning?"

"It's just," Lan was a little embarrassed, "it's the ghost of the school." ”

"Ah, speaking of which, Sister Lan, you have to be on duty. Conan laughed.

"Really, Lan, did you learn karate for nothing?" said Maori angrily, "just use your karate to kill them." ”

Lan shouted, "Dad, karate won't work against ghosts." ”

Conan said: "Sister Lan, don't worry, it must be a rumor created by someone, there are no ghosts in this world." ”

"Well, as the daughter of my famous detective Mori Kogoro, how can you just let such rumors spread around?" Mori smirked, "Go ahead and find out the culprit." ”

Lan asked in surprise, "Dad, are you going too?"

"Who said that?" Maori laughed, "I support you mentally, come on!"

Lan pouted and complained, "Really. ”

"Now, Sister Lan, I'll go with you. Conan said.

Lan said, "No need, Mei Daizi and Yuan Zi said they would be with me." ”

Conan said, "Then I'll come back in the afternoon, and we'll find this prisoner together." ”

Lan said angrily: "Conan, you are thinking about the incident at all." ”

Conan laughed dryly, "That's just by the way, by the way." ”……

In the morning, Teidan High School.

Ran, Midaiko, Yamazaki, and Sonoko meet Ran's partner on duty, Shumi Tsukamoto, the chief general of the karate club.

"Morning, senior sister. ”

"Morning, Ran, Midaiko, Sonoko, and you," Shumi Tsukamoto said after a moment's thought, "By the way, you're Yamazaki." Then he joked, "To be honest, I think Yamazaki should go for plastic surgery." ”

In the laughter of Mei Daiko, Yuanzi, and Lan, Yamazaki said helplessly: "I don't think about it." ”

Sumi Tsukamoto asked, "By the way, why did you three come so early?"

Mei Daizi smiled: "It's not that ghost legend yet, Lan is most afraid of those things." ”

"So we accompanied Lan to find out the truth. Yuan Zi smiled.

"It's okay," Shumi Tsukamoto said with a smile clenching her fists, "If you let me know who did it, I will make him look good." ”

Lan said: "It's not too early, senior sister, let's start." ”……
