Uncle Mouri fainted and fell to the ground, while Conan held his chin, frowned and thought about Yasuo Uehara's hiding place.
While thinking, Conan suddenly remembered the island-wide self-defense team's search for Hamada Koji and Uehara Yasuo in the afternoon.
Under normal circumstances, the Shikishima Self-Defense Team members would search various places on the island and would find some traces no matter what. However, they found nothing all afternoon long. This is so wrong!
Could it be that……
Conan reached out and patted his forehead, and he suddenly understood——
Assuming that Kinoshita Goro knew Yasuo Uehara's hiding place from the beginning, he would definitely ask to search the area nearby in order to avoid that place being exposed! He remembered that Kinoshita Goro said in the afternoon that he would lead a part of the self-defense team in the southern part of Shikishima
Things to search for…
In this way, Yasuo Uehara's hiding place is in the south of the island!
However, the southern part of the island is also very large, and it is still very difficult to find a specific location...
Conan thought about this and immediately said to the self-defense team members around him: "Uncles, Mr. Kinoshita knows where Mr. Uehara is, and he is probably going there to kill him now! So, please gather people and quickly kill Mr. Kinoshita and Uehara."
Find it, sir..."
"Huh?" The surrounding self-defense members looked confused, then laughed loudly, "Little brother, what are you talking nonsense about? How could Mr. Kinoshita kill someone?"
"He is recognized as a good guy in our village! Absolutely impossible!"
"My little friend, it's wrong to doubt others so casually."
"..."
"Sorry, I'm really sorry, Conan is acting up again." Xiaolan apologized to the people around her, then hugged Conan and said, "Conan, you can't! You are really naughty!"
"...but..." Conan looked anxious, and then suddenly had an idea——
The people on the island didn't believe what he said, but that guy would definitely believe it!
That magic stick has a very strong appeal on the island. If he said the same thing, it would definitely be very effective!
Conan thought about this, broke away from Xiaolan, and ran to the corner with the walkie-talkie...
…
"Master Yunwen, is the murderer really in front?"
In the south of Shikishima, in the woods leading to the residential area, Mikami Takeo and others followed Shu Yunwen and asked in a low voice.
"...It's not clear yet, but it's very likely..." Shu Yunwen looked around and answered, then continued, "...the Yin Qi and ghost Qi on your island are too strong and seriously interfere with it.
This has influenced my judgment. If we were in a city with little yin or ghost energy, I would be able to find him by following the breath left by the prisoner..."
"Yes, really?"
Mikami Takeo stopped talking, and everyone walked a few dozen meters ahead. Cheng Shi's voice came into Shu Yunwen's mind: "... Mr. Yunwen, we saw the prisoner. He is about 150 meters ahead.
The position. But he was limping, maybe he was injured..."
"Limp?" Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment and asked, "Can you see clearly who that person is?"
"...Because the trees are blocking the view, I can't see clearly...But, I feel like it's Mr. Kinoshita." Narumi replied, and then added, "...His speed suddenly increased a bit, maybe he noticed you."
"Mr. Kinoshita?" Shu Yunwen narrowed his eyes, "...Follow him closely!"
As Shu Yunwen spoke, his pace quickened a lot.
Cheng Shi and Mingmei were tracking from the front, constantly reporting the situation to Shu Yunwen.
Everyone walked another hundred meters forward, and Cheng Shi's voice came into Shu Yunwen's mind again: "...Sir Yunwen, that man fell down and couldn't walk anymore. He is now hiding in a pit behind a locust tree.
in……"
"...We can see his face clearly. He is Mr. Kinoshita, that's right!"
"Is it really Kinoshita Goro?" Shu Yunwen frowned and led everyone to walk quickly, and soon they arrived not far from the pit where Kinoshita Goro was hiding. He saw that the pit was filled with gloomy and ghostly aura. Obviously he was the murderer!
Shu Yunwen stopped, Haibara Ai, Mikami Takeo and others also stopped. Mikami Takeo immediately asked in a low voice: "Master Yunwen, why don't you leave?"
Shu Yunwen did not answer. He stared at the pit and said softly: "Mr. Kinoshita Goro, if you haven't come out yet, do you plan to hide in that pit for the rest of your life?"
After Shu Yunwen finished speaking, Mikami Takeo and the others had different expressions. After a few seconds, they heard some noises coming from the pit. Kinoshita Goro, who was dirty and embarrassed, crawled out of the pit and leaned against the Sophora japonica next to him.
Supporting his body on the tree: "...Sure enough, Lord Yunwen, I still can't escape your eyes..."
"... As you have all seen, I have two ghost servants. It is easy for them to find you in the woods." Cheng Shi flashed next to Shu Yunwen, "... Look at the Yin Qi you have now.
Ghost, you should be the one who killed Yasuo Uehara in the cave, right?"
"That's right, I was the one who killed Yasuo Uehara." Kinoshita Goro didn't even defend himself and directly confessed.
"Mr. Kinoshita, the person who killed Yasuo Uehara was really you? Why did you do that?!" Takeo Mikami glared at Goro Kinoshita.
"Why? Of course it's for the billion yen of gold hidden on the island!" Kinoshita Goro said, his gentle expression suddenly turned ferocious, "...that's one billion yen! A whole billion yen! Three
Chief Uemura, haven’t you always wanted to keep that billion yen for yourself?!”
"You, you..." Mikami Takeo pointed at Kinoshita Goro and was speechless. The surrounding self-defense team members looked at Kinoshita Goro with expressions as if they were looking at strangers——
They never thought that Kinoshita Goro, who was considered kind by everyone, actually had this unknown side.
Kinoshita Goro sat down slowly, as if he had given up on himself, and whispered the cause and effect: "...Three months ago, after the Ryujin suddenly appeared, I found Hamada's behavior very strange. Then suddenly on the island
After the ghost of the navy appeared and Hamada was stabbed at night, I invited him to stay at my house temporarily and wanted to get the news from his mouth..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "...However, that guy Hamada was very vigilant and did not leak any words. Just when I was slowly losing my patience, Yasuo Uehara appeared!"
"I eavesdropped on the conversation between the two of them and found out that Hamada and Uehara were both crew members on the Ryujin. Seven years ago, they pushed the ship owner off the ship on a typhoon night in order to seize one billion yen of gold from the ship owner.
Then Hamada wanted to monopolize the gold and pushed Uehara into the sea. After that, Hamada hid the Ryujin near the naval cave, then went to the island, deliberately burned his face, and became a
Lighthouse Keeper…”
Shu Yunwen and others were listening to Kinoshita Goro's story. Suddenly, the walkie-talkie on a self-defense team member next to him rang, and Conan's voice came from it: "Brother Yunwen, are you here? I am Conan, and I have something important to attend to."
Let me tell you..."
"...Ah?" Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, then took the walkie-talkie from the hands of the self-defense team members, "Conan? What important thing do you have?"
"...It's like this. I just went to Mr. Kinoshita Goro's house and made an incredible discovery." Conan's voice was urgent. "...The person who used Hamada's body to frame my uncle was Kinoshita Goro, and he is going to kill him now.
Uehara Yasuo. I only deduced that Uehara Yasuo is somewhere in the southern part of Shikishima. I don’t know the specific location, so I would like to ask for your help. Let the self-defense team members on the island be dispatched to search the southern part of the island..."
"Uh... you are talking about this..." Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, turned to look at Kinoshita Goro, and said into the intercom, "... Uehara Yasuo has been killed. I just caught Kinoshita Goro.
Listening to his story... Do you want to come over and listen together?"
"Huh?" Conan was confused on the other side of the intercom, "What did you say?"
"Kinoshita Goro has been captured..."
Shu Yunwen's voice came from the intercom, and Conan's mouth twitched, and he squatted on the ground and drew circles——
Damn! This guy caught Kinoshita Goro? Doesn’t that mean that this guy went out for a while and actually found the place where Yasuo Uehara was hiding?
In other words, what is the point of him looking for clues and reasoning here, Hun Dan?!
Conan was feeling depressed when Xiaolan's voice came from not far away: "Dad, you just said you figured it out and had the inside story of the case. What did you mean? Do you want to reason? Everyone is waiting.
, why didn’t you say a word?”
"Uh..." Conan turned to look at Uncle Maori - yes! He seemed to have stunned Uncle Maori~
However, Uncle Maoli seems to have received another injection in vain today. That guy Shu Yunwen has caught the murderer, but he still has a woolly reasoning...
