Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 369: Serial mystery

At the Hattori family, Haibara and Hattori’s mother watched TV in the living room together. Dinner had been prepared for a long time and no one came back.

"Is dinner out tonight?" Mother Hattori looked worriedly at the entrance.

"Maybe it's another case," Huihara took out his cell phone as usual, "I'll make a call..."

"Xiao Ai?" At the scene of the crime, Gao Chengcai handed over the dry battery to the forensic staff for investigation. He was shocked when he received the call because Xiao Ai had completely forgotten about the case.

"Haha, something happened in Osaka Castle..." Gao Cheng swallowed and smiled dryly.

"Huh?" He Ye noticed Gao Cheng who was on the phone, "Is it Xiao Ai? Let's eat outside. I know there is a very good restaurant across the Osaka Castle Shinbashi, which happens to be nearby..."

"Idiot!" Hattori said in a bad mood, "There are all life cases. How can we have the time to eat?"

"It's okay," He Ye smiled and waved his hand. "I already called my dad and asked him to come over. Anyway, the police headquarters is nearby, and this incident is also somewhat related to my dad's previous case... La, let my dad take care of it later, Xiaolan, are you hungry too?"

"What's a joke?" Hattori shouted with a dark face, "Someone died right in front of us, how could I still be in the mood..."

Yu Guang noticed that Father He Ye had a serious face, and Hattori's voice became quieter: "How can you be in the mood to eat leisurely...Haha, so I think you just leave us alone, okay?"

"Don't eat it," He Ye looked at the recognizing server department contemptuously, and took Xiao Lan away. "Xiao Lan, let's eat it ourselves!"

Gao Cheng watched and Ye walked away and touched his stomach.

Not to mention it’s okay, when I say I’m really hungry, but these guys are embarrassed to go to dinner...

Yes, hurry up and find a way to solve the case.

"Xiao Ai," Gao Cheng asked intently, holding his mobile phone, "how much do you know about Japanese history? Especially Toyotomi Hideyoshi's..."

The Hattori next to him wiped his cold sweat and discussed the case with his future father-in-law.

"Every time Hideyoshi Taiko wins a war, he will put a small gourd on the horse seal, which later became the famous golden horse seal-the thousand-year-old dipper. If every small gourd is filled with gold, one Thousands are quite considerable, and eagerly adding historical value, it is almost invaluable."

Hattori guessed: "From the corpse that was burned to a scorched corpse 13 years ago, the scorched corpse discovered a few days ago, and the pottery fragments found on Mr. Kato this time... the three of them may all be coveting this treasure, and finally But was killed by someone who wanted to swallow it..."

Hattori looked at the group of people pointedly.

The old man’s face sinks slightly: "Police officer, can we also go to have dinner and come back? Because we have finished lunch and haven’t eaten anything yet..."

"Yes," the others followed along and left, "My clothes were soaked in the rain, so I have to go back to the hotel to change clothes..."

"We will be back soon because the hotel where we stayed is very close to here."

"Okay, okay," Officer Otaki said helplessly, "but you have to go back quickly, and there may be things to ask you later."

Gao Cheng frowned and hung up.

There are still too few clues...

Although I knew that the murderer should be among these people, there was no way to be sure who it was, and there was insufficient evidence.

Perhaps we should carefully investigate the identities of these people. It does not seem to be as simple as accidentally forming a tour group after getting acquainted on the Internet.

Especially the old man’s bad house, the sneaky phone call just now is also very problematic.

"Mr. Yuanshan," Gao Cheng found police officer Yuanshan He Ye's father, "have there been no clues about the murderer in the previous two cases?"

Yuanshan squinted slightly and watched the group of people leaving the house: "We have not found any more clues about this, but after the charred corpse was discovered thirteen years ago, several robbers and robberies occurred one after another, resulting in seven people. There is probably some connection between being killed."

"Robbery case?"

"Otaki!" Toyama looked dignified, and he passed his subordinate Police Officer Otaki to his subordinates, and whispered, "Find a few people to stare at the old man and don't be spotted."

"Yes," Officer Otaki responded hastily, "I'll go and explain to my subordinates right away!"

Gao Cheng stared blankly at Yuan Shan who continued to call in a deep voice.

It seems that he doesn't need to remind him, and Dad He Ye has already begun to suspect that the old man is in trouble.

If the house is a robber who haunted thirteen years ago, the suspicious phone call did provide an explanation.

But is Zuowu really the murderer?

Looks like that looks very jealous of the police, there is no reason to make things so big...

Gao Cheng touched his stomach with a sigh, and looked up at the roof of the castle tower where the dead man fell on fire.

Still have to wait for the police to investigate the identities of those people...Couldn't you have nothing to eat today?

"It's really you, Detective Kioto," Okita Souji and Kendo Club students walked out of the crowd under the umbrella to find Gao Cheng's side, "I knew you would be at the scene of the murder."

"Okita?"

Gao Cheng turned his head and almost collided with a big man. His tall and sturdy figure didn't look like a swordsman at all. He would stare at Gao Cheng with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

"It really seems," the big man said in surprise. "It's just like Brother Okita, just lazy and loose..."

"Sloppy?"

Gao Chengzuo smiled and didn't know how to respond to the big man. He simply asked Okita, "Why are you here? Didn't the high school game end yesterday?"

"We watched the college game again," Okita explained, "and everyone wants to have a good time by the way. Just now we happened to have a dinner nearby... By the way, Joto, is there anything we can help?"

Gao Cheng smiled bitterly: "No, no, the police have already taken over."

This is the home ground of the Osaka Prefecture Police. He is a detective who can only fight against him. How could he want a bunch of laymen to help?

Opposite Osaka Castle Shinbashi, Xiao Lan and Kazue were dining in the restaurant. Suddenly, they reacted and lost Conan, and hurriedly left the restaurant worriedly.

"There will be nothing wrong," He Ye comforted, "he should be together with them peacefully, and there are still a lot of police around, it is impossible for any more cases to happen..."

On the new bridge washed by the rain, a figure in a coat suddenly turned on the lighter and lit his clothes, and struggling to fall off the bridge with flames under the horrified eyes of Xiaolan.

"what?"

The two Xiaolan hurriedly ran to the bridge, but only saw the raging fire on the water.

"Come on!"

"It's the voice of Xiaolan and the others!" His Excellency Tianshou, Gao Cheng and Hattori looked towards Shimbashi together, but they continued to chat with Okita, and quickly ran towards Shimbashi with the police officer Toyama and his party.

"What happened?"

"That, there!" Xiaolan grabbed each other in fear, UU reading www.uukanshu.com pointed to the bridge.

Looking along, I saw an entire burning figure floating on the water, and there was no way of saving it.

"That is…"

Several police officers went down to the river to retrieve the corpse and lay it flat on the bank. Katagiri's staring faces could be seen.

"The deceased's name was Katagiri Maho, who was also a member of the tour group just now," Officer Otaki explained, "According to Kazuha and the others, she suddenly set a fire on her coat and fell off the side. …However, the main cause of her death was a heavy blow to the back of the head. I think she hit the stone pier when she fell...

"Does that mean suicide?"

Gao Cheng's eyes flickered.

It’s ‘ignited one’s own fire’ again...
