Chapter 273: 15 Minutes of Silence (1)

"Thank you just now!"

In the process of Mitsuhiko's explanation to Mayo, Motota had already run from the same place to the table over there, thanking the short-haired woman.

"It's okay, does your stomach still hurt now?" The short-haired woman saw that it was Yuan Tai, and a smile appeared on her face.

"It's over!" Motota touched his stomach.

"Because Yuantai's stomach recovery ability is very strong!"

The children and the short-haired woman chatted word by word.

While chatting, Conan noticed that there were two men sitting on the sofa opposite the woman.

One of the men was fair-skinned, wore glasses, and was wrapped in a gray diamond-shaped down jacket. The other is a man with a slightly darker complexion with a slightly prickly hairstyle.

The two men stared at the short-haired woman and the children who were communicating, whispering something to each other without saying a word, but it was a little far away for Conan to hear clearly.

Those two people......

Conan frowned slightly, and before he could think about it, the darker-skinned man suddenly looked at them, raised his voice and asked, "Well, could you be the detective, Mr. Kogoro Maori?"

At the mention of his name, Maori Kogoro's boring expression changed, he half-clenched his fists, put it to his mouth and pretended to cough lightly: "That's right, it's Detective Maori Kogoro!"

"Huh! You're that famous detective! The short-haired woman exclaimed, and the black-haired man sitting next to her, who had brought back the lost children, poked his head and looked at Mori Kogoro's side.

"That's really the case...... "The slightly darkened man's eyes flashed with a dark light, and then asked in a tentative tone, "Mr. Maori, are you here to investigate the case or something?"

Seeing the trace of apprehension hidden in the eyes of the man when he was questioning, Mayo raised his eyebrows and stared at them with some judgment.

Hmm, the souls of these two people don't seem to be bad?

The ominous blood that was wrapped around their bodies was actually related...... It seems that this trip is going to add a new and interesting story.

Misunderstood that it was because of work, Mori Kogoro glanced at him: "No, no, we actually heard that the snow festival in Kitanomura was opened, and we specially brought the children over to participate in the snow festival."

Dr. Asa nodded in agreement, "yes, yes, no one is going to work with a child."

"Yes." When the man heard this, the darkness in his eyes dissipated, and his expression became relaxed.

The man with glasses next to him carefully observed Mori Kogoro's expression and confirmed that the other party was really not lying, so he looked away, his gaze met the man next to him, and the corners of his mouth rose for a moment.

"Ahaha." The atmosphere was a little stiff, and Mori Kogoro laughed dryly to try to lighten the mood.

But Conan stared at the two intently, a trace of doubt crossed his eyes.

This village, it seems that there is a bit of a disharmony somewhere.

In other words, these people who "come here" have different purposes......

Then, the two sides began to blow each other's business, and the identities of several other people were also known.

The darker-skinned man next to the glasses man was called Keisuke Yamao, the short brown ponytail woman with glasses across from them was called Mizuki Tono, and the nurse who had seen Motota before was called Fuyumi Tachimoto, and Conan, who had brought back before and almost froze to death outside, their man was called Takehiko Muto, and the man with glasses was called Naogo Hikawa.

These people are all original residents of the old Kitanosawa Village, and they are also the best childhood friends and elementary school classmates.

Of course, there were only five of them in that class at that time.

They had not seen each other in eight years, their elementary school classmates and childhood friends.

"Then why haven't you seen each other for eight years?"

Hearing this, Conan couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, that's because of that." Hikawa took out a cut corner of an old newspaper from his thick coat and spread it on the table.

Keisuke Yamao, who was beside him, immediately turned his head when he saw the newspaper, not wanting to see the old newspaper at all.

In that old newspaper, there was a report about him - Keisuke Yamao, 26 years old, a hit-and-run suspect in Yukitanosawa Village.

Mizuki Tono on the opposite side also turned his head and put on a pose that he didn't want to look.

"Glacier!" Rigen Fuyumi frowned and looked at Hikawa Shanggo.

Maori Kogoro also frowned: "Suspect? I would like to ask you why you haven't seen each other in the past eight years, it can't be because one of you has entered the police station, right?"

"Daddy!" This time, it was Mori Ran's turn to warn Mori Kogoro. However, her gaze glanced at the opposite side from time to time.

Actually, that's what she thinks, too.

Hikawa shrugged his shoulders and said, "Eight years ago, he was living in Tokyo. Then on the way to the old village where my grandmother lived alone, a girl was accidentally hit and killed. This guy was also stunned at the time, so he actually left the girl's body there and fled directly back to the village. Then, a few hours later, he ran again and turned himself in to the police. ”

Conan was stunned for a moment: "Huh? Uncle, are you going to turn yourself in?"

Keisuke Yamao let out a faint "um", "If the car crashes like that, sooner or later it won't be found, so it's better to turn yourself in." And that's what I deserve. ”

"More than that! This guy actually owes a lot of gambling debts to the underground bank! It's a bit of a slump now! "Hikawa Shogo made no secret of his schadenfreude and exposed Keisuke Yamao's shortcomings.

And Keisuke Yamao didn't even get angry, just looked to the side unnaturally.

"Hmm~That's the only way~" Mayo looked at them meaningfully, dragging out his voice.

"No, in the end, after this guy turned himself in, the court also issued a verdict. Speeding, drunk driving, hit-and-run, plus being in the driver's license suspension period at the time, all added up to being released in the summer of this year. Hikawa snorted, as if mocking Keisuke Yamao.

"So it was while Mr. Yamao was serving his sentence that the village ......" Sonoko Suzuki frowned.

"That's right, the village had just decided to build a reservoir at that time, and after this guy was imprisoned, the village was also flooded by the reservoir." Takehiko Muto said, clasping his hands.

"Moreover, Yamao's grandmother fell ill because of her grandson's affairs and passed away soon after." Rigen Fuyumi sighed.

"So she doesn't have time to move to a new village?" Hearing this, Mao Lilan frowned and said carefully.

Several people nodded silently.

"Another point, the victim who killed this guy was actually Mizuki's sister Natsuki, who was only an adult at the time." Seeing that everyone fell silent, Glacier Shangwu's eyes flashed with malice, and another exciting news broke out, which made everyone look at it in surprise.

Of course, among these "people", except for the real world.

The real world, who wasn't really interested in these things, yawned boredly, and his eyes were sleepy.

Sure enough, every time Kudo Shinichi followed, something strange would happen.

You can be found by a case without a case.
