Chapter 825 Maori, help me up

 An hour later, the Metropolitan Police Department.

 Office of the Fire Search Team Leader.

 Chief Gong was sitting on a chair and lying on the table. He was so weak that he couldn't move.

“What do you think you are arguing with Feichi?” Mouri Kogoro said speechlessly. “It’s just a snake. If you tell it to attack the police, it won’t understand.”

The bowmaster also realized that he was having a trance, and said with a dark face, "Humph, I think it is very smart. As soon as I let go, it also let go. When I said 'return', it didn't plan to attack again!"

 He felt that the snake was deliberately biting him to force him to compromise!

Hattori Heiji’s half-moon eyes, why does he feel that there are so many weird things in the police force?

For example, the squirrel police officer Ayanokōji who has difficulty communicating, or the fire alarm man in front of me who can compete with snakes for a long time...

 Conan turned to look at Chi Feichi, "Brother Chi, how long will Officer Gongzhang be in this state?"

“I’m not sure, it depends on your physical condition,” Chi Feichi said.

 If the bowmaster doesn't give an injection, there's nothing he can do, just stay paralyzed.

 “Dong dong!”

 There was a knock on the office door.

 “Officer Archer!”

 The bowmaster, who tilted his head to the table and put his face on the table, was silent for a moment, "Maoli, help me up."

"Ah, okay!" Mouri Kogoro helped the bowmaster up, letting the bowmaster's center of gravity fall on the chair, and then bent the bowmaster's right hand, letting his elbow fall on the table, and supporting his head with his hand, "Like this

Is that okay?”

 “Help me move the files on the table again,” the bow commander reminded.

 Mouri Kogoro understood and moved the document to the bowmaster's elbow.

 “Please come in!”

When the young policeman came in, he saw his boss sitting behind his desk, holding his head with one hand and looking down at the documents on the table. Although he couldn't see his boss's expression clearly, there was an inexplicable sense of seriousness that made him unable to bear it.

He stood up straight and said, "Officer Gongzhang! Xuantian still can't explain the process of arson. He only said that he was sleepwalking."

“I understand, let him rest for a while,” Chief Gong didn’t raise his head, and couldn’t raise his head. “It’s late today. I’ll take him to the psychiatric department of the hospital for an evaluation tomorrow.”

The young policeman saw that the bow commander was calm and motionless, and he immediately stood in awe, "Yes! Then I won't disturb you anymore!"

After the young policeman left, Mouri Kogoro, who was standing aside, looked at the bow commander and said thoughtfully, "It was probably like this when I was sleeping and reasoning."

Conan laughed dryly, "Sleeping Kogoro" sometimes appears in this posture, but at least Officer Gongshang speaks for himself...

“Speaking of which, could Uncle Xuanta really be the murderer?” Hattori Heiji touched his chin and asked doubtfully, “With his personality, it’s really hard for people to believe that he could be an arsonist.”

The bow commander maintained his position of holding his head with one hand while reading the information on the table, and said aloud, "Actually, we had suspected Xuantian before, because in Lishan Town where the first arson case was committed, he stood among the crowd watching, watching

I shed tears while burning the fire, muttering to myself 'Dad, Dad'..."

 “Dad?” Hattori Heiji frowned.

“His father was a firefighter,” Gongzhang explained. “When he was in elementary school, his father died trying to rescue people trapped in a sea of ​​fire.”

Hattori Heiji was startled, "Does that mean he set the fire because..."

"Well, our police have also thought about it. Maybe he set the fire in memory of his father," Gong Zhang said. "Looking at the fire, he probably had the illusion that every time a fire ignited, his father would be there."

Will arrive quickly!"

“Missing is the wrong word,” Chi Feichi couldn’t help but correct him. “No one would miss his father with something that took away his life.”

Hattori Heiji, Conan, and Mouri Kogoro choked, feeling like something was stuck in their throats, but they really didn't know what to say.

Chief Gong stared at the document on the table with the text lying down, and sighed, "I don't think he will miss his father in this way. I met him once in the park before, and he said nothing for half an hour.

Without saying a word, I told him that I would talk to him next time if I had anything to say. After I got up and left, I saw him desperately looking for something in the grass next to the bench in the distance. After a while, it started to rain lightly, and he got up.

, seeing the relieved look on his face, I understood that he was looking for the cigarette butts I had left smoking, which was the cause of the fire that killed his father."

Hattori Heiji thought back and said, "Come to think of it, Uncle Xuanta also subconsciously helped Officer Yunaga stomp out the cigarette butts that fell on the ground."

"I really can't imagine that he would set fire to someone else's house," the bowmaster paused, "but since he said he set the fire while sleepwalking, let's wait until the results of his examination come out tomorrow."

Hattori Heiji felt uncomfortable and looked at Chi Feichi, "Brother Feichi, you don't think that Uncle Xuantian is an arsonist, do you?"

Chi Feichi said 'hmm', "I have seen patients with sleepwalking. During sleepwalking, the patient has difficulty concentrating, slow reaction, and poor exercise level. If he leaves the room and enters an unfamiliar environment, there will be certain dangers.

Sex, such as falling or tripping. If he was not in the hospital, he might have fallen from a building, fallen into the water, or been in a car accident while sleepwalking. Xuenta was able to sleepwalk all the way from Cupido Town to the arson site such as Rishan and other places without any harm.

It is impossible no matter how you think about using arson tools to set a fire."

"For a person with poor concentration, poor reaction and motor skills, it is really difficult to run so far to set fire," Hattori Heiji frowned, "Even if he subconsciously remembered it when he was walking around during the day,

The terrain, when he sleepwalks to set fire, there may be no obstacles during the day on the road..."

“Perhaps he sleepwalks every night,” Mouri Kogoro guessed, “It’s just that it was only the three times before... no, it’s four times now, and only these four times he successfully set fires.”

"It's very simple to verify," Chi Feichi raised his eyes and looked at Maori Kogoro with a calm tone, "See if there are any unnatural bruises or scratches on his body."

 Mori Kogoro, Hattori Heiji, and Conan suddenly changed their expressions.

“Maoli, help me go to the interrogation room,” the bow leader immediately said solemnly, “let them check Xuantian’s body for such injuries!”

 “I’ll go right away!” Mouri Kogoro nodded seriously and hurriedly turned around and went out.

 Half an hour later, Mouri Kogoro came back with the results——

No!

 There are no bruises or wounds on Xuenta Lundoku's body.

Hattori Heiji's lips showed a smile, "That's strange. He sleepwalked such a long distance and his clothes were stained with mud, which means he had fallen, but he didn't have any injuries or even bruises on his body."

“Someone soiled Mr. Genda’s clothes and left footprints in his house, making him mistakenly think that his sleepwalking had relapsed?” Mouri Kogoro touched his chin, “But why did you do this?”

"Don't you understand yet? Uncle?" Hattori Heiji smiled and said firmly, "The person who made Mr. Xuanda mistakenly think that he was sleepwalking is probably the real murderer of this serial arson case, so that Mr. Xuanda can take the initiative to replace him.

He is charged with arson!"

 Conan nodded. Every time there was a fire, there was a red horse sent by Xuantian.

 If the coincidence is too great, then it is no longer a coincidence.

But it seems that he has seen or heard of this situation somewhere...

Hattori Heiji also frowned and thought for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up, he looked at Conan, and both spoke out.

 “ABC Murders!”

 “ABC murder case?” Mouri Kogoro was confused.

"A case in Agatha Christie's famous detective Poirot series," Chi Feichi explained to his blank-faced teacher, "those whose names have the same initial letters as the names of their places of residence are killed in the order of ABC, and

Placing the ABC timetable next to the corpse makes people think that this is a serial killing incident, and the real target of the criminal is only people with names starting with the letter C. This is done to cover up the planned killing with the disorder of unplanned killing.

Orderliness.”

 Mouri Kogoro continued to look blank.

 Unplanned... disordered... covering up orderly...

"That's right," Hattori Heiji said with a smile on his lips and a firm look, "This arson case was set in the order of 1-chome, 2-chome, and 3-chome. It was probably to cover up the murder of Mrs. Morokaku who lived in 4-chome.

The real purpose, and the cowardly Uncle Xuantian is exactly the same as the person in the novel who was controlled by a real criminal, mistakenly believed that he was a murderer, and was taken away by the police."

"If the arson was to cover up the purpose of murder, other people related to Mrs. Zhujiao would be very suspicious," Conan said, "For example, Mr. Zhujiao, if he found out that his wife was having an affair, he might kill her who was unfaithful to him.

's wife."

"And Miss Gondo Izuko," Hattori Heiji looked at Chi Feichi, "Her reaction when she saw Feichi was so strange. If she was downstairs in Feichi's apartment before, it was to observe the location of the arson.

, then she saw Brother Fei Chi at the door of her sister’s house, and she was worried that Brother Fei Chi had discovered her intentions and found her sister’s house, so she was scared and ran away, which makes sense.”

"Hmm..." Conan always felt that it didn't look like it. Gondo Ketsuko seemed to have only fear at the time and no guilt. However, Gandou Ketsuko was indeed suspicious, "Then there is the Feng Shui master. The deceased took a video of their affair. Using

To threaten him and his wife to divorce, he may also achieve the purpose of killing by setting fire..."

Chi Feichi looked at the two of them silently and analyzed each sentence one by one.

A detective is really a waste of time when he encounters a case. The person he met for the first time, Gong Zhang, was still there, so he didn't hide his ability.

As Conan said this, he also felt that he had lost his temper. He quickly smiled and said to Mouri Kogoro, "Uncle, how did you do when I imitated your reasoning just now?"

"You're still far behind, kid!" Mouri Kogoro looked arrogant and took out his phone to check the time. "It's already four o'clock in the morning, and it's too late to go to bed. We'd better wait until tomorrow morning to go to those three people.

Ask about the situation there!”

 Hattori Heiji looked around and said, "Then let's do something to pass the time."

"I……"

As soon as Chi Feichi spoke, he was interrupted by Conan.

 “Don’t tell scary stories,” Conan waved his arms, “I’m not sleepy at all!”

 “How can Brother Chi know how to tell horror stories?” Hattori Heiji became interested.

 “Don’t say it, don’t say it!” Conan covered his ears.

 Hattori Heiji suddenly became happy, "I said, work..."

 Conan:“!”

  Chi Feichi: “……”

 The detective also has a more promiscuous teammate.

"Conan..." Hattori Heiji forcibly twisted the sound, slowed down, and rubbed Conan's head with a smile, "So you are still afraid of those things?"

 Conan Half-Moon Eyes, why does he think it’s dangerous to be with Hattori?
