Act 409: The Strange Tenant (1)
"Ah...... Actually, it's ......" Conan couldn't stand her aggressive eyes, hesitated for a while, and said: "It's Hanazuka, Mizuka revealed the information to Teacher Judy that the toxin in Hanazuka Shichen's body had disappeared, and it was discovered by Gin." Now I'm back in ICPO Tokyo......"
"What? Is this true? Gray Yuan's pupils began to tremble, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or worried.
Happily, he finally left the devil's cave and no longer had to live in fear. Not only that, but you can meet at any time in the future.
The worry is that Gin will not let him go, and if he meets again, maybe who will die and who will die......
"Ah...... Something happened! Suddenly, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya pointed behind Ai and Conan.
Everyone looked in the direction of their fingertips, and a boy was holding a letter of entrustment and wanted to stuff it into Yuantai's shoe cabinet.
The boy named Kaito Sugiura heard a voice and turned his head to meet Conan's eyes.
When he told Conan and the others what he was asking for, the rain just stopped.
Walking on the way out of school, Mitsuhiko thought about it and said, "I see, your father is the landlord of a small apartment, and there are four tenants who rent from your father, and one of them has suspicious behavior every night, right? That's why you want to ask our Junior Detectives to find out what this person is doing......"
Conan thought for a while and said, "Then let's go and see it tomorrow, tomorrow is Saturday, there is no class." ”
Kairen said: "My house is in 23 2-chome, Rice Flower Town, and it is an apartment called Trojan Horse Village. See you tomorrow, black and white...... Ah no, Edogawa-san. ”
Sugiura smiled shyly and ran away first. The Junior Detective Corps, who remained in place, was confused.
"Black and white? What does black and white mean? ”
"Is he trying to say goodbye?"
……
The Junior Detective Corps accepted the commission, and the Kairen ran back to the Wooden Horse Village apartment with great excitement. Pushing open the door, I couldn't wait to take off my shoes and finish my homework so that I could play chess with my father. As a result, I was in too much of a hurry and didn't pay attention to the road. As soon as I entered the door, my shoes tripped over the threshold and fell like a dog eating.
"Ah...... It hurts. Kairen struggled to get up and looked at the wound in his ankle.
"Are you alright......"
At this time, a tenant named Ryuhei Hosoi saw the landlord's son fall to the ground, and quickly took out a band-aid from his pocket and helped him stick it on the wound.
Kairen sniffed and looked at the person in front of him, and said obediently, "Thank you, Uncle Hosoi." ”
"Be careful next time......" Ryuhei Hosoi said, pushing open the door and walking out.
"Huh? You're back. A pink, chestnut-haired girl who was cleaning the room looked at him with a smile.
"Yes, Sister Tsubasas." Even if you fall, you can't hide the excitement in your eyes.
Seeing the wound on her leg, Okiya quipped, "Did you encounter anything happy?" Don't pay attention to your feet...... Have you forgotten? The threshold for the entrance to the apartment is quite high. ”
"I just wanted to get home and do my homework quickly, because my friends from school are coming to see me tomorrow morning."
"Oh?" Okiya stopped what he was doing, smiling meaningfully with his broom in both hands. "So, you must be a good friend, right?"
Sugiura scratched his head and said, "Actually, it's not counted, it's just that the boy who is coming is very famous in our school, so we must not snub them." ”
"That's ......" Okiya's eyes flashed with mystery, and he continued to ask, "So, what's that boy's name?" ”
Kaito didn't know what Okiya was thinking, and replied without hesitation, "Oh, his name is Edogawa Conan. ”
The next day, Conan and the other children of the detective group arrived at what Kai called the Trojan Horse Cottage Apartment. However, when several people arrived, they found that the walls and tiles of the apartment had collapsed, and the beams and pillars and the floor were all black, which looked like traces of fire. Not only that, but from time to time there were crows screaming in the sky, and the dilapidated and depressed scene made several people wonder if they were in the wrong place.
"Rice Flower Town, 2-chome, 23 Bandi, Trojan Horse Village Apartment." It wasn't until the door number in front of the apartment was confirmed that the detective team children confirmed that they had not made a mistake.
But how could it be like this in just one night?
The scattered black and white chess pieces, various models of cars that have been burned to black charcoal, and a few police cars parked outside, nothing is an illusion.
"No...... the children covered their mouths in horror, unable to believe what was in front of them.
Gray Yuan frowned, "I just remembered that I heard the siren of a fire truck late last night. ”
"So, what about the boy?" Ayumi asked nervously, "How is Kairen-san?" ”
"Will it be ...... in this fire" Mitsuhiko didn't dare to think about it anymore and closed his eyes.
At this moment, a rough man's voice came from behind them: "No, the child who called the man is safe." Although there were some burns, I was fortunately rescued by firefighters. Now in a coma in the hospital......"
"Really? That's great! ”
"Bow Chief's Police Department?!" Conan recognized him at a glance and stepped forward to say hello.
"Oh, it's a Maori ghost. After the Red Horse case, I never saw him again. The Bow Commander Police Department responded.
"And then, did anyone die in this fire?" Conan asked, frowning.
"It was a blessing in the midst of misfortune that no one was killed. However, Kairen's father is the landlord here, and now he is being treated intensively in the hospital. ”
"So, at the time of the fire, Kairen's relatives and other tenants escaped without any problems, right?"
Bow Commander replied, "This child's mother happened to be on a trip, and we just contacted her. There were also four tenants here, all of whom happened to be out at the time of the fire. ”
"Could it be that one of these four people is the arsonist?" Filled with indignation, Won Tai began to express his opinion.
"What?"
Ayumi also said kindly: "Yesterday, the Kairen classmate told us that one of these four people has a strange behavior and wants us to come over to confirm." ”
After listening to the children's words, the bow chief fell into deep thought. At this time, the police officer who was searching came over with an unburned notebook.
"Bow Chief, we found this in the rubble."
The bow chief hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took the dark green notebook.
After turning a few pages, he suddenly realized: "Isn't this the diary of a classmate who opened it?" I'll take a look at ......"
The bow chief turned to the last page, marked the fourth of July, yesterday's diary, and began to read:
"I woke up early this morning and the weather was terrible, but I still had to go to school. But red people can sleep lazy today. When I was washing, I found that the garbage had already been sorted, so I didn't have to spend any more time getting it, just throw it out. The blue man is still so diligent and helps a lot. After coming back from school, I fell in the hallway, but the white man was about to go out, which was really nice......"
