30. Behind the wanted warrant
There is a photo of two people hanging on the wall of Uehara Shouzo's house, and it should be his parents who look like him. There was a picture of him and his brother on the wanted list on the TV table.
Conan and Uehara Morizo are sitting on the couch together, and Kamen Superman is playing on the TV.
"Brother, where are your parents?" Conan looked at the photo and asked knowingly.
In the face of Conan, a child, many people will unconsciously open their hearts and say something from their hearts, and the same is true for Shouzo Uehara.
"My parents died very young, and my brother brought me up." Maybe he hasn't talked to anyone for too long, and the long-term loneliness has also made him a little depressed, and he urgently needs to talk to someone. And Conan, a kid who doesn't know anything, is a very good person to talk to. He babbled on and on about some warm little things in his life and his brother, and Conan listened quietly without interrupting.
"My brother is Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, and it's because I haven't been married."
"What does your brother do?"
"My brother is a journalist!" Uehara pulled out a stack of newspapers from under the sofa cushions, and the stack was so well preserved that it was barely wrinkled. "These are all incidents that my brother has reported, and many people thank my brother for it!"
Conan flipped through the pages, and there were articles against the exploitation of workers by capital, discussing the extremely high suicide rate in Japan, labor intensity and other social problems, and often satirizing some inhumane capitalists and politicians. There are also scattered reports of cases in which the listeners are sad and the hearers cry, calling on people not to do wrong things, and some things are wrong for a lifetime.
One of the newspapers ridiculed a parliamentarian who focused only on the interests of the upper classes and ignored the lives of the people at the bottom.
Looking at these reports, Conan realized that this case was not so simple. As a journalist with such a sense of justice, how could he shoot three people and abscond in fear of crime? There must be some reason for this!
After thinking about it, Conan continued to flip through the newspaper and praised sincerely: "Your brother is really a great person, some of his views are very clear, and his three views are upright!" ”
"Yes, my brother is amazing!" Shousan also has a cult of his brother.
"And where did my brother go?" Conan pretended to bring up the topic unconsciously.
"My brother he... Something happened..."Uehara Shouzo's expression became depressed.
"What's wrong?"
"They said my brother killed someone, how could my brother kill someone!" Uehara Shouzo's emotions this month seem to be all vented in this sentence, he seems to be refuting something loudly, and a lot of tears are falling down.
Conan was also a little overwhelmed at this time, he felt a little sad in the face of a teenager's mental outburst, but he didn't know how to comfort the other party.
He calmed down quickly, and what he needed at this point was affirmation, not comfort. He said his inference from entering the house to the present: "Your brother is definitely not a murderer, there must be something else hidden in this!" ”
He said this not only to mean that he believed Uehara Shouzo's words, but also to calm his emotions. Nothing soothes this young man's flawed heart more than the approval of others.
"Really! Do you really believe it? The boy's eyes were full of tears, and his voice was hoarse, but full of longing.
Conan nodded heavily, "Let me introduce myself again, my name is Conan Edogawa, and I'm a detective who came to investigate your brother's incident!" ”
"Detective?" Although he felt that this child was joking, such a solemn attitude made him also infected.
"Tell me everything you know!" Conan's detective momentum is undoubtedly revealed at this moment.
Uehara Shouzo was impressed by his "domineering spirit", and told his brother about it 1510.
"My brother disappeared a month ago, when he was investigating an organization and arrived home in the middle of the night."
"Organization?!" Conan's eyes froze, and he couldn't help but think of the black-clothed organization.
"I don't know what the organization is, but it should be a criminal organization, and one night when my brother came back, I happened to get up to go to the bathroom, and my brother told me that he had filmed something, and he could quickly hand over the information to the police, and the criminal organization would be eliminated, and then he had a good rest.
Then the next day, the police came to the door and said that my brother had killed three people and absconded. ”
"Did you tell the police about that?"
So they heard it and began to search the house, and when they found nothing, they left. From time to time, the police or other people would come to me for questioning. They also checked my address book, and I even had the feeling that they were staring at me all the time waiting for my brother to show up. ”
If the police also have this attitude, then the matter will be more and more involved. Conan's face couldn't help but be more solemn.
When he heard Uehara say that someone was staring at him, he felt this way himself.
Conan didn't look out of the living room window, picked up the remote control, and turned up Kamen Superman's voice a little louder. He stepped off the couch, grabbed a notebook and a pen, and made a "shhhhh
He sat on the floor, with his back to the window, and wrote in his notebook: "Don't talk, I suspect there is a monitor." Someone is watching here, let's be natural and don't arouse suspicion. ”
Taiyuan Shouzo walked up to Conan, also with his back to the window, looking at what Conan wrote, quite surprised. He nodded, and had a new understanding of the child's strength.
Conan continues to write: Do you know what secret base your brother has? Or places that are frequented.
Taiyuan Shousan wrote: I don't know, my brother often goes to places other than newspapers at home.
Conan: Does your brother have any friends who have a very good relationship?
Shouzo Taiyuan: I don't know.
Conan: Did your brother tell you anything?
Taiyuan Shousan pondered hard, and finally remembered what his brother said to him one day.
"If I'm missing, don't worry about me, protect yourself. Remember! Your safety is the most important thing. Only when you're safe, I can let go of a lot of things. ”
He put the phrase down on paper.
Conan looked at this sentence in silence, this sentence already said a lot.
First of all, Taiyuan Temple is a reporter with a full sense of justice, then he is looking for news about an organization, and after he gets important news and plans to report it to the police, he becomes a murderer who absconds in fear of crime.
He was not arrested, as can be seen from the people who watched Shousan.
It can be seen from the sentence that he said that he got the information, and he has some things in his hands, and he can even publish them directly on the Internet or newspaper media, but he is restricted by the safety of his younger brother and cannot do so.
Once it is sorted out, the matter will be well resolved.
There is no need to find Taiyuan Temple, only Taiyuan Shousan is in a safe environment, and it won't be long before Taiyuan Temple will release the information in its hand, and then the organization will be arrested, and Taiyuan Temple's wanted will be lifted!
Conan wrote on paper: I already know what the truth of the matter is, and you do it now.....
