People Are in Conan: the Origin of the Beginning of the Body

　　"There seems to be no more sugar at home. I'll go buy some sugar," the old woman said in a hoarse voice. "But, the two of you, aren't you with the other three children?"

　　"Uh, this, it's enough for a few of them to go," Conan smiled and took out the detective badge. "Let them buy the sugar by the way, and there is no need for the mother-in-law to run again..."

　　How could he explain, could it be that he stayed because he was worried about something happening?

　　"Huh?" The old woman looked at Conan in confusion as she used the detective badge to contact Conan, and stared blankly.

　　"Are you all right, mother-in-law?"

　　"No, no, is this a phone?"

　　"It's a walkie-talkie. It's a little small, but it often breaks down and the power is not enough..."

　　Conan used the detective badge to talk to Ayumi about the sugar, and happened to see the identification expert Mie coming from the stairs.

　　"Old lady," Sanzhong said happily when he saw that the old man hadn't gone far, "Can I get my phone? Because there may be important things..."

　　The old woman squinted her eyes and nodded: "Okay, I don't have to go out to buy sugar... But let's say it first, no matter what you say, our Guanye family will not sell that hanging scroll."

　　"In fact, Mr. Jinqu is right, it is wiser to hand over the Thor hanging scroll to professional collectors as soon as possible..."

　　"Hmph, did you take his money?"

　　The old man opened the door without a good face.

　　"The phone is in the living room, take it and leave quickly..."

　　"Don't get me wrong, I'm just speaking objectively."

　　Sanzhong walked into the living room with some embarrassment, and was suddenly startled by the chaos of the living room: "What, what's going on?"

　　"what happened?"

　　Conan followed into the living room, and suddenly found that the whole living room seemed to be turned over by someone, the glass door of the balcony was open, the curtains were fluttering in the wind, miscellaneous things were scattered all over the place, and there was a fax machine beside it. Nonstop, fax paper blows all over the place.

　　"It's a document faxed by Mr. Guanye..."

　　"It doesn't seem to be just the living room," Xiao Ai whispered outside, "The bedroom here has also been turned over."

　　"It's really strange," the old woman said in confusion, "I was fine when I went out just now..."

　　"Did a thief ever come in?"

　　Conan picked up a piece of fax paper: "Mother-in-law, did you have a fax when you went out?"

　　"It should be," Sanzhong helped, "because I called just now, and when the old lady hung up, there was a sound of the fax machine starting."

　　Conan silently put down the fax paper and looked towards the balcony: "First, let's see if there is anything left in the house."

　　It only took a few minutes for the old lady to go out, it was too weird.

　　……

　　Kazumo, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Genta all returned to Kanno's house after a while, along with Kanno's housewife who forgot to bring her wallet back. Everyone was almost taken aback by what happened in the house. .

　　"Only the Thor hanging scroll here was stolen. Sure enough, a thief came in..."

　　Mitsuhiko and Genta followed and looked at the place where the scroll was originally hanging.

　　"It's abominable. Not only did they steal the paintings, but they also turned the house in a mess."

　　"I-I see," Sanzhong said with an ugly face, "let's call the police first..."

　　"It won't be too late to call the police again."

　　Conan interrupted: "Someone sneaked into the house just a few minutes after the old lady went out. It seems that it is not as simple as a thief. In such a short time, sneaking in, rummaging, stealing pictures and then escaping... Isn't it too fast? And at that time The old lady and I were not far from the door, and no one came in or out at all..."

　　"Could it have come from Yangtai?" Mitsuhiko said, "Isn't this often the case on TV? The thief climbed down the rope from the roof..."

　　Conan smiled and said: "Then why did you choose this room? The curtains in the living room are all drawn, and the glass door should be closed before, so you can't see the inside of the house from the outside at all, and you play sling games outside during the day, isn't it? Is it easy to spot?"

　　Mitsuhiko hesitantly said: "This, maybe the thief has been hiding there on the balcony, and then heard the old woman call and said she had to go out before coming in..."

　　"Let's not say that there is still a fax machine in the house, there may be people waiting for faxes at home. The strangest thing is that the prisoner turned over the living room and bedroom, but in the end he only stole the hanging scroll, knowing the value of the painting There are not many people, it can be seen that the original purpose of the prisoner was for that painting..."

　　Conan turned his attention to the girl's festival doll next to him: "Since I know this painting so well, I should also know that the scroll is hanging here."

　　Conan nodded and said, "Yes, there is no reason for thieves targeting scrolls to mess up other rooms unless..."

　　"Unless it is deliberately pretending to be an ordinary theft scene," Conan laughed, "the reason for this is that the prisoner does not have a clear alibi, so as not to be suspected after the incident... In other words, the prisoner is aware of the picture. The hanging scroll is valuable, and it is easy to be suspected of being stolen because of the hanging scroll.”

　　The bald fat man suddenly appeared at the door and said in amazement, "What happened? What a mess here..."

　　"It's this uncle," Mitsuhiko and Yuantai grabbed Fatty, "he is the most suspicious!"

　　"Ah?" Fatty said stunned, "What are you talking about? I just came to see Sanzhong and didn't go back to see..."

　　"Then uncle, do you have an alibi?"

　　"I originally planned to stay at my house with Mr. Mie until the evening. Wait, what about the Thor hanging scroll?"

　　The fat man was in a cold sweat and looked at the crowd inquiringly.

　　"I'm afraid it was stolen," Mie also looked at Fatty suspiciously, "Mr. Jin Qu was indeed with me before, but when I couldn't find my phone to make a call, he went out for something..."

　　"Hey, I just went out to buy cigarettes," Fatty said with sweat on his face, "Why do you suspect me when the painting is gone? Maybe it was hidden by the Guanye family, after all, you can get 2 million You don’t have to sell paintings yet, right?”

　　Ayumi asked Conan quietly: "Conan, is the culprit the fat man."

　　Conan said: "Mr. Jinqu is indeed the most suspicious person, but the culprit should not be him..."

　　"Ah? Isn't it?" Mitsuhiko looked disappointed, "Who the hell stole the scroll?"

　　Conan said to the old woman: "There are two doubts, although the living room and bedroom have been turned over, but the position where they have been turned over is not high, and it has not been moved if it is slightly higher... The other is these Dolls for Girls' Day...   …”

　　"What happened to the doll?"

　　"Look carefully, is there any change from what was placed before?"

　　Conan took Ayumi's camera and recalled the photos he had taken before.

　　"The positions of the emperor and the queen are reversed, and the positions of the other 13 dolls are also somewhat deviated..."

　　"Really, really!" Ayumi leaned in front of the camera screen.

　　"So what?" Xiao Ai looked at the wall where the painting scroll was originally hanging. "Do you want to say that the prisoner accidentally hit the shelf and knocked off the doll when he took the scroll, and then put the doll in the wrong place when he rearranged it?"

　　"I see!" Mitsuhiko said excitedly, "The prisoner is someone who doesn't know how to place dolls, so it's obviously Mr. Jinqu. He said that he doesn't have a daughter, so he's not interested in dolls..."

　　Conan said: "The only thing that is wrong is the position of the emperor and the queen. If you want to reposition so many dolls in a few minutes, it is impossible for people who are not familiar with it... In fact, the positions of the emperor and the queen are only different from before. There are I don't really understand if there is no mistake, maybe it's another way of putting it..."

　　Xiao Ai asked, "This arrangement should be the traditional arrangement in Kyoto, right, old lady?"

　　The old man closed his eyes lightly: "There are indeed many people in Kyoto who do this kind of pose..."

　　Guanye housewife looked at the old man worriedly: "Mom..."

　　"Hey," Fatty Jinqu said in surprise, "Could it be that the culprit is really the old lady herself?"

　　"No criminals."

　　Conan raised his head and said, "But it's the old woman who hid the scroll. That's right... Mr. Mie is an expert. He can see that these are dolls from Kyoto, and he obviously knows the traditional way of placing them, but he and Mrs. Guanye both read it. There's no need to change the way of Bumei, and they don't have time to do these things, the only thing that can be done is the old woman who directs and acts..."

　　"Where is the painting scroll?" Jin Qu looked at the doll stand on the seven steps in confusion, "Why did the old lady knock down this table?"

　　"Take these dolls away first... The dolls are not actually knocked over when they were running away. The reason why the mother-in-law will re-arrange the dolls, you will know when you lift the red felt..."

　　"This is……"

　　Jinqu and the others helped to remove the dolls and lifted up the red carpet on the steps, all of them were startled by the scrolls spread out and hidden under the red carpet.

　　"It turns out that it's hard to see the painting without removing all the dolls... How did you know?"

　　"This is because the dolls placed on the slender sticks are slightly inclined forward. The thick sticks can be placed on top and covered with red felt, but the thin sticks can't..."

　　Conan looked at the old lady: "But it's still hard to detect it. My mother-in-law probably wanted to wait for the police to come and search, and then secretly put away the dolls while they were packing up."

　　"But," Guan Ye looked at the hanging scrolls spread out on the shelf, "how could Mom do such a thing..."

　　Jin Qu said: "Could it be that, old lady, do you really want to pretend that the painting scroll was stolen and defraud the insurance money?"

　　"I wouldn't do that kind of damned thing..."

　　The old man became a little older, and quietly looked at the Thor hanging scroll: "Because this scroll is the patron saint of the Guanye family, I did this to hide it and wait for my son to come back and look at it... Guanye I can no longer repeat my past mistakes..."

　　"mistake?"

　　"Another Fengshen scroll that Mr. Jinqu collected was actually found in the warehouse of my husband's house, just like the Thor scroll, but when my son and his wife got married, they had no money to buy a house, so I sold Fengshen. Tell my husband on a company trip..."

　　The old man said melancholy with his hands behind his back: "Who knew that the passenger boat my husband was on sank, and the big typhoon they encountered was like a wind blowing up..."

　　Jin Qu's tongue trembled: "Then, that Fengshen is a cursed scroll?"

　　"There's no curse," the old man shook his head. "Isn't this often the case? The doll is placed next to the child's pillow to eliminate the bad luck Zog's stand-in. Perhaps these two paintings also bear the disaster that befalls us on behalf of our Guanye family. So please don't interfere with this Thor painting scroll, we will not sell it."

　　"Uh...haha," Jin Qu waved his hands sweating profusely, "It's enough for me to have Fengshen, just pretend I didn't say it..."

　　The incident was resolved, and the juvenile detective team left the old woman's house.

　　"Goodbye then..."

　　The teenage detectives said goodbye to each other and went to their respective homes.

　　Xiao Ai also walked to her house, and Conan followed and said, "Student Huiyuan, let's visit Miss Mizuno Rina together, in the name of bringing your classmates to her house, how about you?"

　　Xiao Ai looked at Conan coldly and shook her head: "Not much..."

　　Conan said anxiously: "Haiyuan, it's all right, why don't you agree? If I go alone, there is no suitable excuse, it's inconvenient, and if the two of us are alone, we will hold Miss Shui Wulianai alone. Another person can secretly investigate."

　　Xiao Ai said, "So, Conan, are you sure you can hold down Miss Mizuno Rina?"

　　Conan sighed and said, "All I can say is, do your best.".

Chapter 378

　　Xiao Ai and Conan came to the door of Mizuna Rina's house and rang the doorbell.

　　Shui Wulianai happily opened the door. She thought it was Ye Fan, but she didn't expect Ye Fan's sister, Xiao Ai.

　　Shui Wulianai said unexpectedly: "You are... Xiao Ai..."

　　Xiao Ai showed a sweet smirk and said, "Excuse me, Sister Reina, my classmate Conan and I want to play with my sister."

　　Conan also said politely, "Sister, I'm sorry..."
