Saturday, May 3, Kyoto, Pontocho, Sakuraya.

Lan and the others retreated, and the banquet became lively again, and in the cool mat downstairs near the Yachuan River, Lan and the others sat down on the three seats side by side, three U-shaped.

Ashbara, Ayumi, Motota, Mitsuhiko, and Conan are seated, and Motota sits alone at the U-shaped bottom.

Hattori, Dr. Asasa, and Yamazaki Ichizai, and Dr. Asa sit at the U-shaped bottom.

Mei Daizi, orchid, and leaves, and the garden have a seat, and the orchid and leaves sit at the U-shaped bottom.

Everyone is facing Kamogawa, next to Conan is Hattori, and next to Yamazaki is Midaiko. ……

Soon after, the moon came out, and Conan suddenly remembered what had happened before and fell into a trance.

"What are you thinking?" Hattori asked with a wicked smile and whispered.

"It's just remembering the time when I made an appointment to meet," Conan was a little wistful, "when I remember that two hours have passed......"

"It's not much. Hattori chuckled, "I left Waha dry for hours last time." ”

"But," Conan said warmly, "when I rushed over, I found that she was still there. ”

"And then she beat you up? Hattori asked with a wicked smile.

"No," Conan said softly, "she was happy and said, 'Great, I've been worried about what happened to you.'" ”

"Uh......" Hattori was stunned, then smiled, "That's when you found out that she wasn't just a childhood sweetheart." ”

"It's not like that. Conan blushed and looked up at the night sky, I knew this a long time ago, and she must still be waiting for me. ……

Next to him, He Ye whispered: "Look, Hattori and Conan, I don't know what they're talking about." ”

Yuan Zi smiled: "It must be a boy's business, don't worry." ”

"Actually, Kazuha," Lan looked at the night sky, "Actually, I envy you so much, because when you want to meet, you can see each other at any time." ”

"Ran. He Ye shouted worriedly.

"That," Yuan Zi diverted the subject, "Speaking of which, it's rare for Ah Zhen and I to meet." ”

"That's because people don't want to see you. Mei Daiko said.

"It's infuriating to say it. Sonoko gritted his teeth and said, "Don't let me find the guy who injured Ah Zhen's eye." ”

"Extinguish the fire, extinguish the fire," He Ye said with a smile, "If you have acne, then you won't be able to see him." ”

"You're just getting acne. Yuan immediately retorted.

At this time, Maori's presumptuous laughter came from upstairs, and Lan gritted his teeth and said, "Dad, he actually ......"

"Extinguish the fire, extinguish the fire," said Mei Daiko with a smile, "and there will be acne." ”

"You're just getting acne. Lan immediately retorted.

Hearing the same words, the four of them laughed together for no reason, and the atmosphere immediately improved. ……

Listening to the laughter of the four Lan people, Gray Yuan shook his head, adolescent girl syndrome, and then took a sip of tea, looked at the night sky, and looked at it, and the stars in the sky gradually formed the appearance of his sister. ……

Soon after, a scream rang out inside the Sakura House, and everyone was stunned for a moment, and Conan and Hattori immediately rushed in.

"Uncle is here again. Mei Daiko smiled.

"That's right, that's right. Yuan Zi smiled.

"You two. Lan dissatisfied.

"Let's take a look, too. Yuan Tai proposed.

Mitsuhiko and Ayumi responded: "The ...... of the young detective group"

"No, I can't. Yamazaki said, "Dr. Agasa, please take care of the four of them." ”

"Okay. Dr. Asasa said.

The Ayakoji Police Department appeared, showing his police ID, "Was there a screaming here just now?"

"That's right. He Ye said.

"But your Kyoto police came too fast. The garden said.

"I'm here to find someone. The Ayakoji Police Department said, "An antique dealer named Sakura Masazo, his house was on fire before. ”

"Ah, Mr. Sakura is inside. Lan said.

At this time, the squirrel from the Ayakoji Police Department jumped out, and the three of them stepped forward to watch, "It's so cute." ”

"Come here. Mei Daizi stepped forward and beckoned.

"Huh?" Ayakoji noticed that his squirrel was scared, and then obediently jumped over, standing motionless in the palm of Midaiko's palm.

"Who are you?" asked the Ayakoji Police Department.

Mei Daizi smiled: "Don't worry, I won't hurt this little guy." As he spoke, he put the squirrel in Ayumi's hand.

Yamazaki diverted the subject, "Police, let's go and have a look first, please." As he spoke, he led the way into Sakuraya, followed the sound and the smell of blood, and went to a guest room.

There were some people outside the room, but the road was not blocked, and before Yamazaki and Ayakoji could go up, Conan came out and was thrown out.

"Stinky boy, don't mess around the scene, go and let Lan call the police. Maori shouted without looking back.

"Uncle, the police have arrived. Yamazaki said, "This is the Ayakoji Police Department." ”

The Ayakoji Police Department showed her police ID, "Detective Maori, what's going on here?"

Hattori said, "Mr. Sakura Masazo has been killed. ”

"What!" Ayakoji was taken aback and immediately rushed into the room.

On the ground, Mr. Sakura Masazo was lying in a pool of blood, and the blood came out of his neck and had already flowed all over the ground.

Yamazaki said: "Uncle, the Ayakoji Police Department is here to find Mr. Sakura Masazo, and his house is on fire. ”

Maori said: "It's too much of a coincidence that there was a murder here and a fire there." ”

"Needless to say, there must be something inside. Hattori asked the Ayakoji Police Department, "You're a criminal policeman, shouldn't you be in charge of the fire?"

The Ayakoji Police Department said, "Because we suspect that Mr. Sakura Masazo is one of the Genji Hotaru thieves. ”

"Huh?" Māori was surprised.

"There was a call from a public phone to ask about turning himself in," said the Ayakoji Police Department, "and we investigated and found that this person was probably Mr. Sakura Masazo, and there was a witness who had bought something at Mr. Sakura's antique shop, and Mr. Sakura Masazo happened to be seen near the phone booth that day." ”

Hattori said, "If you are in the antiques business, you will help sell stolen goods." ”

Maori said: "It must have been his companions who found out that he was going to turn himself in, so they killed him and burned his shop to destroy the evidence of their sale of stolen goods." ”

"If there were eight of them, it would have happened that they had two more, one for killing and one for arson," Hattori said. ”

"I went to the hostess and the front desk to ask who had been here tonight," Maori said. ”……

The result of the inquiry was that the guests received by the hostess were still here, and the front desk said that a man wearing a mask and hat had once come in to borrow the bathroom and left quickly.

"That's it. "When I went to the bathroom from the door, I happened to pass by the room. ”

"But, uncle, aren't you upstairs?" asked Yamazaki, "why is Mr. Sakura Masazo in the downstairs guest room?"

"He said he wanted to get some sleep, and the upstairs rooms were full, so he slept downstairs," Maori said. ”

Yamazaki asked, "That's strange, how did this man find Mr. Sakura-masazo?"

"It must be on a mobile phone. Conan said.

"I see, it's the inner ghost. Maori said.

The Ayakoji Police Department said, "It is also possible that Mr. Sakura Masazo contacted him himself. ”

"But I didn't find out he had a cell phone. Hattori said.

"That's to take it. Maori said.

"But the murder weapon is still at the scene. Conan said.

The Ayakoji Police Department asked, "You want to say that if the murderer took the mobile phone, then the murder weapon can also be taken away, right?"

"Yes. Conan said.

At this time, a large number of police rushed over, and the Ayakoji Police Department stepped forward to command, and soon after, the Shiratori Police Department and the Otaki Police Department also arrived.

"Mr. Maori, I actually met you here. "I suddenly felt that Mr. Mori should move his family to Kyoto, and our work at the Metropolitan Police Department would be much easier." ”

Maori laughed dryly twice, but did not answer.

"Heiji, what's the situation?" asked the Otaki Police Department.

"That's right. Hattori told him about the situation, and when they rushed into the room, Mr. Sakura Masazo was already dead, and the cause of death was that the carotid artery was severed, and it is said that he entered the room at about half past seven in the evening, and at about eight forty in the evening, someone passing by smelled a strange smell, and couldn't help but open the room to take a look, and it turned out that it was the smell of blood. ……

The forensic staff were working, and the investigators were taking notes for all the guests in the Sakura House, and Dr. Asa and the others, who were enjoying the mat outside, were spared.

There are four people who can bow and arrow, the artist Chiga Suzu, the artist Harutaro Mizuo, the bookseller Saijo Taiga, and the monk Ryuen.

Yamakura Tae shouted: "Mr. Officer, you won't suspect our family Ah Suzu, when the Genji Hotaru thieves group started committing crimes, Ah Ling was still young. ”

Maori said: "But today ......"

Yamakura Tae shouted: "What are you kidding, in addition to our normal university studies, our family Ah Ling also has to learn to review piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, tea ceremony, cooking, flower arrangement, dance, and singing, etc., every day is full of homework, how can I have time to join any thief group to help them kill people." ”

"It's amazing. ”

Mei Daizi, Lan, Yuanzi, and Ye couldn't help but praise.

The Ayakoji Police Department said, "I have a little doubt about Miss Chiga Suzu, I heard that Miss Chiga Suzu receives a sum of money every three months or so. ”

"This," Yamakura Tae weakened, "that's the living expenses given by Suzu's father." ”

The Ayakoji Police Department asked, "So, who is Miss Chiga's father?"

"I dare to save my life, he is definitely not a thief, and he has nothing to do with these events, I can't say anything else. Tae Yamakura said.

The Shiratori Police Department said: "I believe that Miss Chiga Suzu is not a murderer, as an artist, she will not kill people in the store, which will have a great impact on the future business of the store and is related to her future." ”

The Ayakoji Police Department said: "In order to help her father get away with his crime, it is understandable for her to do this. ”

"Ahem," said the Otaki Police Department, "I'll leave this for the time being, as well as Mr. Harutaro Mizuo, Mr. Saijo Taiga, and Monk Ryuen. ”

"I don't have much to say about today's incident. Saijo Taiga said, "But just because we know archery doesn't mean that we have anything to do with today's incident. ”

"That's right. "It's two different things entirely. ”

"Amitabha. "Ryuen monks and monks are in the same way.

Ayakoji Police Department said, "Of course, we will investigate all guests. ”

Harutaro Mizuo said, "And those guests who left before the incident. ”

Saijo Taiga said, "And it cannot be ruled out that someone sneaked in through the window to commit the murder. ”

The Ayakoji Police Department said, "We will also consider this. ”……

The investigators found Mr. Sakura's mobile phone in the water tank in the bathroom, which added to the suspicion.

If it's an internal criminal, is it trying to use a mobile phone to create the illusion of an external criminal?

If it is an external criminal, if you do not take away the murder weapon and mobile phone, is it to create the illusion of an internal criminal?

Is it that someone from the outside came in from the outside and killed him after being contacted by Sakura Masazo on his mobile phone, and then left the murder weapon and mobile phone in Sakuraya in order to save trouble?

Or did the people inside kill Sakura when he was alone, and he couldn't leave, so he left the murder weapon, and then used the damage to the mobile phone to create the illusion that Sakura Masazo had used his mobile phone to contact the outside world?

Before the results of the mobile phone survey come out, there is no clue, and this time is as little as two or three days, and it is possible that the survey will not come out. ……

After the end, Mori returned to Sannoji Temple, and the others returned to Fushimi Momoyama Castle's inn. ……

Sunday, May 4, Kyoto, Yamanoji Temple.

When I got up in the morning, Yamazaki called a taxi, and I only booked a hotel room in Fushimi Momoyama Castle for one night, and I was going to go home the next night, but now it seems that this is not necessarily the case, so I have to move here first and then find a place to live, if not, I can only live in the temple with Mori.

Entering the door, Hattori looked at the cherry blossom tree and looked a little dazed.

He Ye pushed the Hattori, "What are you looking at?" ”

"No, nothing. Hattori was a little embarrassed and walked in quickly.

Conan thought of what Hattori said and understood, it turned out to be the land of first love. ……
