Ke Xuezhuo's son-in-law

Chapter 285 The prisoner is Wutian Dog
  The next day, the police received a report and found a hanged body of a man in Shanni Temple.

After receiving the report, Officer Memu rushed to the temple with his troops without stopping, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw three familiar figures.

"Why is it you Maori brother again? I really don't know if you are entangled with something unclean."

Apart from Xiaolan, who rarely encounters them, the standard plague god duo, maybe Fujiwara is also nearby, no, he should be nearby.

"Where's Fujiwara? He should be with you too."

"Fujiwara is not here today, he didn't come this time, but you have to believe me, Officer Megure, this time it's really not because of me."

After Officer Megure ordered his men to start work, he glanced at Mouri Kogoro with great disdain, as if to say, 'Do you think I will believe you? ’

Regardless of whether Officer Megure believes it or not, Kogoro feels that this is not his problem. In other words, this case is calling him, the famous detective.

The preliminary investigation report came out soon.

"The deceased was Monk Tianyong, the abbot of this temple. The estimated time of death was between ten and twelve o'clock yesterday. The person who found the body was Master Kuan Nian in the temple, so it's you."

The young monk on the side nodded and continued, "Well, because I didn't see the abbot early in the morning, I looked around..."

After hearing this, Officer Megure turned his half-moon eyes and looked at Kogoro beside him, "In the end, I found the abbot in the training room. After hearing the cry, the one who ran over was Brother Maori who happened to be in this temple, right?"

"That's right, that's right."

Although Kogoro also felt that there was something in Officer Megure's words, he didn't care. The case must have brought him to this famous detective.

At this time, Conan walked around the house twice and quickly discovered something suspicious.

"Master Kuan Nian's eyes are very good..."

Seeing Conan appear at the crime scene, everyone's attention was quickly attracted to him.

"What's wrong? Have you discovered anything suspicious? Conan."

Officer Megure has always understood that Conan can often find many things that adults pay attention to, so he attaches great importance to Conan's words.

"Well, he is hanging from such a high ceiling. If it were me, I might not be able to find it so quickly."

"Yes."

Conan's words caught Officer Mu's attention, and he and Kogoro turned to look at Monk Kuan Nian at the same time.

"-This is still a bit strange, Master Kuan Nian. Could it be that you knew from the beginning that the abbot master was hanging from the ceiling?"

"Don't be kidding, I just..." When it came to the reason, he couldn't say it.

Just when Kogoro was 100% sure that he was the murderer, the monk on the side said, "Of course he can see it, because an identical case happened two years ago."

Upon hearing this, Officer Memu remembered that he had indeed been to Shanni Temple two years ago. It was also in the same situation at that time. The deceased at that time was a monk named Zhongnian.

"I still remember that it was Master Kuan Nian and Master Mu Nian who found the bodies at that time, right?"

"Well, it was the two of us. That was what happened during the rainy season when it rained non-stop..." At the end of the sentence, Monk Mu Nian pointed to the sofa wall beside him, "Same as that time. The difference is that today’s wooden boards are quite complete.”

"board?"

Conan and Kogoro simultaneously went to inspect the parts that were obviously not consistent with the tone of the surrounding wooden boards. "Are you saying this place was destroyed two years ago?"

"Well, it's because of the repairs two years ago that this place is now different from other places. At first, we thought it was a cave created by Zhongnian to escape from this room, but the lock on the room was not locked, and at that time we came The repair workers said that it is completely impossible to pry this place open in one day. The only one who can complete such a thing in one day is the legendary monster... the foggy dog!"

"Ah?! Misty Dog!"

The scream he heard last night flashed through Kogoro's mind. It was extremely terrifying. Maybe it was from that monster...

"It's really stupid. There is no such monster in the world." Officer Megure said decisively, and then arranged for the officer to go to the roof to check the beams.

Although Kogoro had doubts, he still didn't say anything. After all, according to scientific research, there are no such things as ghosts in the world. Maybe last night was his hallucination. Besides, didn’t that little Conan guy also say that Fujiwara was also on the mountain? But I called him this morning and found out that he was at the office. side.

During the conversation between several people, there was a result on the other side of the beam. As expected, it was another suicide case.

"Officer, this is indeed the same as two years ago. The dust is clearly visible on the beams on both sides, and there is no trace of any contact at all. Even though the beam in the middle may be dusty, it can only be hung with a rope. It's just up there, it's a suicide."

"Suicide case?"

Mouri Kogoro touched his beard and felt that it was unlikely that the monk Tianyong who had a passionate toast with him last night would commit suicide in such a confused way.

Conan also felt that it would be inappropriate to attribute this matter solely to a suicide case.

Officer Megure gave an explanation at this time, "Both the dead Zhongnian and Abbot Tianyong were relatively tall. If he committed suicide, it would be impossible for someone to carry him there without leaving any traces, so this can only be the death of Abbot Tianyong." I tied a circle on the beam with the rope, then put my own neck in the circle and jumped off the beam."

Conan looked left and right and didn't find anything unusual. After a brief thought, he felt that this was probably a suicide. However, this case seemed to be related to the case two years ago, but he didn't know it.

However, Kogoro firmly believed that it was homicide. The reason was that as a very happy abbot, it was impossible for him to lose his mind overnight and choose to commit suicide in such an awkward place.

"There are mountains and water here. If you really have that idea, why not jump off a cliff or jump into a lake?"

"Okay, don't make trouble, Brother Maori. If you have new clues, just tell them, but don't make up such nonsense reasons to hinder the police from handling the case."

Officer Megure thought for a while, "Since the abbot chose to commit suicide, he should have left something like a suicide note."

"There should be. Let's look for it separately."

Monk Xiunian, who was watching all this silently, looked at the abbot on the ground without saying a word.

But when he thought about witnessing Wutian Dog hanging the abbot on the beam in front of him last night, he avenged his brother's revenge for him...

"It turns out that the legend is true, the foggy dog ​​can really kill people..."

Conan did not interrupt after hearing this. After all, as a monk, he believed that those ghost legends could be understood, but he firmly believed that there would be no ghosts in the world, and that there were people behind every abnormal time.

"What happened two years ago must be related to what happened today. I will definitely find out..."
