Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 762 Is it in the river?it's river
Maginot Line.

Construction began in 1928 and was completed in 1940, costing a total of 50 billion francs. It was built by France to resist the German army.

As a result, the German army directly bypassed the Maginot Line and launched a surprise attack from behind, which completely reduced the entire defense line to a display, thus becoming the second largest "French military miracle" after the "French military salute".

The current Maginot Line has become a well-known scenic spot that drives local tourism.

And "Magino" is also used to describe a seemingly insurmountable difficulty, but in fact it is vulnerable and even loses its own function.

"Hello, Maginot Line in Europe"

When Qin Zhibo put this word on Lei Katis, everyone's eyes widened, and the scene was tense for a while.

Especially Ray Katis, as a football star from Europe, naturally knows what the Maginot Line means.

It means you can't guard against anything!
Ray Katis was angry inside, his mustache was trembling, and his eyebrows were unconsciously knit together.

But even so, he didn't dare to attack.

Because his physical condition has long been corroded by drugs, he can only lower his value and go to the United States to play football.

As we all know, there is a fly in the ointment, so playing football in the United States will reduce the intensity of the game, and it will also allow the body of drug users to adapt.

If you continue to suck, Ray Katis will have to find a weaker place to play.

Now that he was said to be the "Maginot Line", Ray Katis knew what was going on in his heart and could only force a smile.

"Sir, it's a solid wall, not a Maginot"

"Oh~" Qin Zhibo pretended to know just now, and nodded suddenly, "Forgive my English is not very good."

Conan on the side looked at Qin Zhibo's clumsy acting skills, and couldn't help thinking about it.

Poor English?

It’s okay to fool others with this, but Conan knows that Qin Zhibo is a language expert who is proficient in Japanese, English, French, and Chinese.

And besides "Magino", everything else you speak is Japanese!
Conan looked up at the two, one was his favorite football star, the other was a detective he trusted, it was really difficult.

Just now Qin Zhibo's hint about sushi has already pointed out that the unscrupulous reporter's pre-death message is Ray Katis who wears the No. 8 jersey on the court.

But even so, Conan still has room in his heart.

Maybe a coincidence?
Or was it planted?

This possibility is very low, but Conan is willing to believe so.

He couldn't imagine that the football star he had admired for many years, the Ray Katis who fought on the football field, was actually a murderer.

But judging from Qin Zhibo's knowing provocation, Conan also confirmed Qin Zhibo's opinion.

Qin Zhibo is a detective with strong observation ability and reasoning ability.

When reasoning the case, Qin Zhibo would not intentionally do such a thing that had nothing to do with solving the case, he was a very pure person.

That is to say, Qin Zhibo has decided that Ray Katis is the murderer.

But why?
Why not just tell the truth?

As long as the pre-death information is announced, and the police conduct a careful investigation of Ray Katis and check the smoke reaction, the murderer should be determined.

Conan's eyes narrowed slightly, and his brain recalled the gentle side of Qin Zhibo in the last female idol attack case.

In order not to make Mao Lilan sad, after learning that Yue Yexue was the murderer, he did not immediately tell the police.

It is also because of Qin Zhibo's "be merciful" that Yue Yexue and Kusano Kaoru's previous feud was resolved, and Xiaolan's emotions were not affected by this incident.

This time Qin Zhibo also unlocked the message before his death at a glance, but he didn't tell the police directly, but gave various hints.

Is it
Does he want me to make an end by myself?
Suddenly enlightened, Conan's eyes widened slightly, and he looked at Qin Zhibo in disbelief.

This is obviously giving yourself a chance.

As a detective, instead of watching other people arrest his favorite idol, it is better to prove whether he is guilty or not by himself.

thank you.

Conan's eyes sharpened, and he ran out of the room.

Hattori Heiji saw that Conan had run away, and hurried to catch up.

"Hey, Conan the Worker"

Unlike Conan, he has nothing to do with football, and he is even less familiar with Ray Katis.

He mainly wanted to ask, if Qin Zhibo had given hints of the message before his death, would this reasoning duel still count?

Qin Zhibo saw Conan running away with an extremely serious expression on his face, and knew that Conan had become enlightened.

Since Conan was busy solving the case, Qin Zhibo didn't want to go downstairs, and going down the steps would easily affect his abdominal injury.

So, Qin Zhibo asked the hotel waiter for a chair, and sat quietly in the corridor to drink tea.

Not far away, Ray Katis was wary of Qin Zhibo at first.

After all, referring to the "bronze wall and iron wall" as the "Maginot Line of Defense" seems to mean something.

But seeing Qin Zhibo suddenly give up and sitting on a chair drinking tea, he was even more surprised.

what happened?

Didn't the detective solve the case?
Although Ray Cattis didn't know what was going on, the half-blood detective seemed to be beginning to lie flat.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the only detective in the room who was still working.

I saw Mori Kogoro in a white suit holding his chin, still thinking hard about the message before he died.

Suddenly, Kogoro Mouri had an idea and thought of the "answer".

"tape"

"3 mulberry."

"Band-san, that's right! It's Mr. Bando!"

Through transliteration, Mori Kogoro came up with a very accurate name.

"Very well, just find a person named Bando among the invited guests!"

Ray Katis breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this answer.

Find!
Let him find enough!
On the contrary, in the corridor at the door, Qin Zhibo, who was listening attentively, was a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, Kogoro Mori made a mistake and was half right.

Got it right, but not quite right, leading him to a completely wrong answer.

In fact, sometimes, Qin Zhibo felt that Mori Kogoro was also very wise and foolish, and occasionally he could get the right answer.

Even if you don't know the correct answer, you can always accurately hit the wrong answer, which is also a kind of ability.

This can also be seen from his rather weird character card with erratic upper and lower limits.

But most of the time, Mori Kogoro is greater than mentally handicapped.

On the third floor, Conan and Hattori Heiji came to the room where Ray Katis was in charge of turning on the lights.

In fact, even without Qin Zhibo's reminder, the unscrupulous reporter would have died in the area that Ray Katis was in charge of, and he would have received considerable suspicion.

However, because Ray Katis turned off the lights in the room on the third floor first, gunshots were heard on the fourth floor soon.

This extremely small time difference became the evidence for Ray Katis' crime.

If the murderer was Ray Cattis, he would have to find a way to turn off the lights in the third-floor room on the fourth floor.

What is intriguing is that the room on the third floor is facing the staircase leading to the fourth floor, which is very coincidental.

Hattori Heiji and Conan worked together, and the tall enough Hattori Heiji confirmed whether the room light switch had a voice control unit or a timer switch.

Conan searched the room for a while, but found nothing unusual.

But when he walked out of the room, Conan glanced at the wardrobe next to the entrance.

Conan was quite impressed with the wardrobe in this hotel room.

A while ago, Yusaku and Yukiko came back and played tricks on themselves with Dr. Ali.

At that time, when I was trying to track down the secrets of the so-called "Black Organization", I hid in this closet and was spoofed by Yuzuo.

Thinking of this, Conan casually opened the cabinet door.

There is a mop quietly placed inside.

Seeing this mop, Conan glanced at the switch of the lamp again, and had a flash of inspiration.

这 是
A murder plan came to mind.

"Kudou, there is nothing wrong with this lamp."

After checking the switch, Hattori Heiji turned his head, and just saw the mop in Conan's hand, and his expression was stunned.

At this moment, what Hattori Heiji saw was not a simple mop, but a killing tool.

"Kudou, what you have in your hand is."

"found in the closet"

I found a mop pole in the closet, is it in the river?

The two looked at each other and thought it was very river.

"If that person really did it, he should still find that thing on him."

"Well, oh." Conan had a very bad premonition in his heart, and all the evidence pointed to what Qin Zhibo revealed.

It's just that because Qin Zhibo had already revealed it, the blow to Conan would not be that great.

Hattori Heiji looked at the disappointed expression of his best friend, and couldn't help feeling a little worried.

"Are you okay, Kudo?"

"...Well, it's okay, let's find evidence."

In the banquet hall on the second floor, the police are checking the smoke reaction of the cuffs for everyone.

Mori Kogoro stood at the door of the inspection room and asked everyone who came out, "Are you Mr. Bando?"

This is a kind of persistent spirit from the uncle, which can't help but move people.

Qin Zhibo sat on a chair, staring at Ray Katis among the crowd.

He has successfully passed the smoke reaction test and chatted with two other sports stars.

In fact, the gunpowder smoke reaction can be detected on Ray Katis, but the police's gunpowder smoke detection is relatively "perfunctory", and only checks the cuff position.

However, on the feet of Ray Katis, there are also investigation points
However, Qin Zhibo also discovered some new problems while observing Ray Katis' every move.

That is, he yawns frequently, and his listlessness looks more like a drug addict than an athlete.

If this is the case, there seems to be a motive for the murder.

After a while, Ray Katis teamed up with two other sports stars to find Officer Otaki.

"Mr. Police, I suppose we can leave now?"

"Both of them said they wanted to go back to the hotel, take a shower and relax."

Ray Katis claimed that he was the only one who could speak Japanese, and said that the other two wanted to go back to the hotel.

In fact, he wanted to go back and take some medicine to improve himself.

Narcotics are like gangrene attached to the bone, once it is touched, the body cannot leave it.

This is not a psychological effect, but a physiological effect. If you stop smoking, you will feel unbearable pain all over your body.

Police officer Otaki was a little embarrassed, and spread his palms, "But if this is the case, our police work will not be easy to carry out."

Ray Katis replied, "But haven't we all passed the smoke test?"

"If the police have any questions, we live on the top floor of this hotel, and you can go upstairs to find us at any time."

Ray Cartis was sensible and moved with emotion, which made Officer Otaki a little shaken.

There is an unwritten rule within the police that when handling cases involving foreign celebrities, the police must be cautious.

In particular, these three people are not from other places, but American sports stars.

".Well, if there are any questions you want to ask later, I'll go upstairs to find you."

"no problem."

Ray Katis responded with a smile on his face, actually heaved a sigh of relief.

At this moment, he could only pretend to be relaxed on the surface, but in reality he felt uncomfortable all over.

My knees hurt, my muscles are sore, and my head is sleepy. I can finally go back and breathe some refreshment.

But just as Lei Katis was about to turn around and leave, Qin Zhibo came over.

"You can't go."

"Huh?" Ray Katis was puzzled, "Are you talking about me?"

Qin Zhibo nodded.

After finally being able to leave, Ray Katis was a little angry when he was stopped again.

In addition, what Qin Zhibo called "Europe's Maginot Line" just now made him even more angry.

"Sir, why can't I go?"

"You have to give a reason, otherwise"

Ray Katis' tone was already angry, but Qin Zhibo remained unmoved and responded lightly.

"Otherwise what do you want?"

"Is the lawyer's letter a warning?"

Officer Otaki saw the tense posture of the two, and hurriedly stepped forward to reconcile: "You two, don't be angry."

At this moment, Hattori Heiji came over from nowhere, "Well~ Officer Otaki, there is no need to worry."

"Uncle Qin actually wanted Lei to meet a fan, nothing else."

"Really? Uncle?"

Looking at the confident expression on Hattori Heiji's face, Qin Zhibo knew that Conan had done everything well.

"Yes." Qin Zhibo showed a kind smile.

Ray Katis looked at the inexplicable and strange smiles on the faces of the two, and felt a little terrified in his heart.

But after all, as long as you finish meeting the fans, you can go back to the room to "work hard", and you can only agree.

"Since the fans want to see me, let's go"

Just like that, Hattori Heiji led Ray Katis to the third floor.

Under Hattori Heiji's instructions, Ray Katis walked up the third floor slowly.

When you come to the stairs on the third floor, a mechanism is in front of you.

It was a mop pole held against the wall with another closet door pressed onto the wooden pole.

Seeing this familiar mechanism, Ray Katis was startled, and hurried over to take it away.

But at this moment, there was a stern voice from the stairs behind him.

"thunder!"

"Catch the ball!"

Ray Katis subconsciously turned around and saw a football flying past the stairs.

He quickly raised his hand to block, but even though the angle of his hands was just right, his right knee trembled involuntarily, causing his face to catch the ball.

Under the heavy blow of the football, Ray Katis fell to the ground.

On the steps, Conan closed the foot-enhancing shoes with moderate strength adjustment, and said.

"I didn't believe it at first"

"The once iron wall has really degenerated into the Maginot Line."
