What he thought was that after telling Shiraishi his reasoning, Shiraishi would go to the black cat to find out the situation for verification.
If you follow him, you will not only be able to overhear the case, but you may also be able to deduce where the black cat usually hides from where he hides, and you will be able to take more initiative in the future.
"The situation you mentioned does sound reasonable." Shiraishi first confirmed the logic of his reasoning.
Conan smiled and nodded, waiting for him to lead the way.
But soon he stopped laughing.
Because Shiraishi's next sentence was: "But the black cat is not here. I am here to participate in the dormitory, and he is not a member of the laboratory."
"...Not coming?" Conan was startled.
Although Shiraishi said it more euphemistically, his meaning was also very clear - everything Conan had just reasoned was all fantasy without factual basis.
"But..." When Conan can't find evidence, he will rely on logical thinking to complete the case, and when he can't find logic... he will trust his intuition.
His intuition told him that wherever the white stone appeared, the black cat might appear at any time.
Shiraishi didn't know that Conan was secretly cheating again.
But even if he knew, he wouldn't be too worried - as long as Conan still has a little respect for science, the matter of Shiraishi = Black Cat will not be exposed.
Now, Shiraishi is thinking about other things: "...Why do you think he would grab someone and hit him against the wall? He is not the person who would do such a thing."
...This is obviously what the Columbine is supposed to do.
That's not right, Yonehara-sensei is quite cute. Even Coren would never hit someone in the face unless absolutely necessary.
Black cats are even less capable. This vest should be more law-abiding and strict.
But now it seems that in Conan's eyes, Ma Jia's personality is actually mixed up?
If you think about it carefully, it is true that just like Haibara Ai has a radar to detect members of the organization, Conan actually has his own passive - 100% taking off other people's vests.
As long as the opportunity comes, he can peel through any number of layers.
In addition, Conan seems to have the ability to see through other people's camps.
Haibara Ai's radar would make mistakes one after another when encountering undercover elements like Akai Shuichi and Furitani Rei, but Conan almost never missed it. Even if he had some doubts about them at the beginning because of the plot needs, he would still be able to do it later.
Quickly separate the black and red sides.
That myself...
Shiraishi fell into thought.
Now it seems that the body is still very stable. After all, even the physical composition of Ma Jia is different, and he is indeed a kind and considerate good person. There is nothing wrong with this.
But the two vests, Black Cat and Column... are strictly speaking the same vest. In Conan's eyes, they seem to be gradually being merged under the influence of some science.
...It is simply a shame for a trumpet fanatic.
Fortunately, Conan has not seen the whole face of the vest, otherwise in order to avoid trouble, he would have to spend the fragments to perform the split.
After careful observation, I found that when Shiraishi denied that "black cats can carry people into walls", his tone was very serious, as if he really thought that... Conan's expression became more complicated.
A while ago, Akiko Sayama, who played the role of the Dark Baron and attacked the black cat, but was dragged into the room and beaten until her head was bleeding, appeared in his mind again.
Oh, no, Sayama Akiko's head seems to have been hit by a cup.
But it is true that the black cat later beat someone in the small dark room, although he was more measured and did not beat the person until he could not walk...
Thinking again about the criminals who were strangled, beaten, or anesthetized by black cats in the past... Conan gradually discovered that Shiraishi seemed to have a little misunderstanding about his partner.
However, there is nothing we can do about it. Looking back, Shiraishi was basically sleeping when the black cat was beating people...
Conan hesitated to speak, wanting to tell the truth and make Shiraishi sober up.
But I always feel that what I say now will be heard by the black cat. Although Shiraishi said that he didn't come, his intuition has always been very accurate, just in case the black cat sneaked over.
It was so cold in the snow, and if I was locked in an unheated cabinet, I might freeze to death.
For the safety of his life, Conan opened his mouth and swallowed all the words.
…
During dinner in the evening, the doorbell suddenly rang.
As soon as Shimoda Kohei went out, he saw Sugiyama leaning stiffly against the doorbell, with snow on his back and head, and his posture was very strange.
Shimoda Kohei was startled. But soon, he thought he understood - Sugiyama, a horror movie lover, must be playing a prank again.
So I took his arm and pulled him into the house.
Without the support of the wall, Sugiyama fell to the ground stiffly, and the snow on his body was also shaken off.
Except for Shiraishi and Yonehara Koko, everyone in the room was startled.
Conan was the first to react and rushed over. He squatted down and touched the dead man's neck, and found that the man was already cold - cold in every sense of the word.
If you look closely, you can see a wound with some ice on the back of Sugiyama's head.
Others also gathered around one after another.
Suddenly Nakamura Minori let out a scream. She stretched out her hand and pointed at the body: "There is also a word on the back of his hand, and it is indeed 'ミナゴロシ'. My previous reasoning was correct!"
...that of yours is clearly a wild guess.
While thinking about it, Shiraishi looked down and denied: "There is no voiced sound, this is 'コ'."
"...Maybe those two points were accidentally wiped out." Nakamura Minori chose to believe in herself.
Conan looked closer and found that the "コ" on the back of his hand was very clear.
It makes no sense that the main body was unscathed and only two spots were scratched off. What Shiraishi said should be correct.
"If you arrange them in the order of being attacked, the first one is the ミ in Shiraishi's brother's hand, then the ナ in Yonehara-sensei's hand, and then the uncle's コ. Together they are the ミナコ." Conan read it together, and it felt like
is a girl's name.
This is indeed a name. Upon hearing these three sounds, the faces of the three teachers next to me turned pale.
Among them, Shimoda Kohei’s reaction was the most exaggerated.
Yonehara Koko saw him holding his head with a look of horror on his face, as if he was seeing the end of the world, and he knew what he was doing.
Nakamura Minori was originally very scared, but when she saw Shimoda Kohei's appearance, her curiosity overcame her fear.
She tugged on Shimoda Kohei's sleeve in confusion: "Shimoda-sensei? What's wrong?"
"...Don't touch me! It has nothing to do with me!" Shimoda Kohei shook her head as if he was electrocuted and threw her hand away.
At this time, recalling the doorbell just now, Shimoda Kohei understood.
The corpse was unable to move on its own. The person who killed Sugiyama and then moved him to the door and pressed the doorbell must be Minako Mochizuki!
Shimoda Kohei's scalp was numb. He looked into the void and began to explode emotionally: "Go find Sugiyama! He suggested it, I just...!"
A gust of cold wind blew in from the door.
Shimoda Gengping suddenly stirred up his spirit, stopped tremblingly, turned around and ran towards the house.
On the way, Shiraishi pulled him and secretly posted the remaining half of the revenge license.
Then he pretended to be separated by Shimoda Kohei, let go of his hand, and looked at Shimoda Kohei's retreating back with concern.
There was a corpse on the ground. Although I don’t know why Shimoda Kohei suddenly became timid, at this time, of course, he still had to call the police first.
Afterwards, a few people returned to the restaurant and heated up the cold dinner.
Even though there are dead people, we still have to eat.
Shiraishi found a warm place to sit down.
I originally thought that the mission was almost completed. Unexpectedly, I secretly pressed the light screen to see that the mission time had been extended.
...How could Shimoda Kohei survive tonight?
…………
Shimoda Kohei hid in his room, leaning against the bed and shivering.
Suddenly, there was a cold wind blowing behind him. He thought he had forgotten to close the window, so he quickly stood up and wanted to walk over to close it - he was afraid that if he didn't close it quickly, something would come in later.
However, when I turned around, I saw that the window was tightly closed and locked.
The sky was dark, and the glass was like a dark mirror, reflecting the stunned Shimoda Kohei, and to his right, a little girl hanging from the ceiling.
Shimoda Kohei stared at the image of the girl in the window, his mind buzzed, and he wanted to run, but his legs were weak from fear.
With trembling lips, he turned his head and looked next to him, but there was nothing there, and there was no body of Minako Mochizuki.
Shimoda Kohei was startled, and thought with a hint of happiness that maybe it was just his eyesight.
Looking at the window again, the girl's image was indeed gone.
But immediately after, a few lines of blood words slowly appeared on it, dripping down:
"Kill you within three days
I will scatter the ashes into the snow for you.”
At the bottom, there was a strange smiling face covered in blood, as if there was a person with a face covered in blood lying on the window.
Shimoda Kohei choked in his throat, rolled his eyes, and fell down.
Two minutes later, a black cat came out of the corner of the room, walked around to look at him, and found that Kohei Shimoda was still alive, and the Revenge License had not been consumed.
...Based on what Shimoda Kohei said when he blew himself up just now, he must have found the wrong person.
Thinking of the keyword "three days" on the window just now, Shiraishi decided to wait and see.
…
In the old villa, there were some ventilation fans, and Shiraishi slipped into the corridor through the narrow vents.
During this period, it met Koko Yonehara who was about to kill someone, and acted cute and led her to an empty room.
Having been led by a cat once before, he picked up a person for nothing. This time, Yonehara Koko also wanted to see what the cat had planned.
She saw the cat enter a room, raised its paw and patted the bed twice, then walked over to check in confusion.
Without even looking twice, my ankle suddenly felt cold and I was knocked down by an anesthesia needle.
Shiraishi came to the door, changed back to his human form, gave Yonehara Koko a shot of Hongye brand anesthetic that was enough for her to sleep until the next day, then released the form, returned to her true body, and prepared to rest.
…
Conan couldn't sleep at all, he always felt that other events would happen.
But until dawn the next day, the villa was always very calm.
In the morning, Shiraishi secretly went to give Yonehara Koko another injection, planning to send her directly down the mountain to prevent her from killing someone again if she caught the opportunity.
The snowstorm stopped in the early morning, and the police arrived quickly.
They sent a car to take Yonehara Koko, who was "unconscious for unknown reasons," down the mountain, and then began to investigate the murder case.
Not long after, a car stopped at the door of the villa.
Suzuki Ayako was sitting in the driver's seat, and Professor Hirota and another student were sitting in the back seat.
They saw a group of police officers gathered around the dormitory area, and looked in suspiciously.
Shiraishi walked to the car and after a brief explanation, Suzuki Ayako sighed regretfully: "It seems that we won't be able to move in until the investigation results come out."
Professor Hirota, who was in the back row, twirled his beard and thought for a while, and suddenly remembered something: "I have a friend who is staying nearby, so why not go over and stay for one night?"
Suzuki Ayako said, "Are you talking about the teacher Banqiao you met on the road just now?"
——On the way here, they met Professor Hirota's acquaintance Masaru Itabashi, who was an old friend of Professor Hirota's in high school.
Professor Banqiao is now a tutor in the sculpture major and has several students.
"It's him." Professor Hirota nodded with a smile, "Didn't he just complain to us that there were too few people coming? Just in time, let's go over and give him some popularity."
"Then can you take us with you?" Suzuki Sonoko came over at some point, blinked at her sister, then looked at Professor Hirota, and said obediently, "We still have several days of vacation, and I and I
Xiaolan can squeeze into a room and let the kid sleep on the floor without taking up any space!"
"Haha, of course. We don't have many people coming to the laboratory, so the room must be enough." Professor Hirota nodded, "And more people come, and there is more heat. If we gather in the hall together, we can save a lot of heat."
"
"..." Shiraishi felt a little sympathetic after hearing this. How tight is the research laboratory's funding?
That's how things settled.
Several people returned to the villa where the murder had just occurred, registered their contact information with the police, then packed their luggage and prepared to visit other people's villas.
When he was going out, Shiraishi saw Shimoda Kohei standing by the car window, bending down and whispering something to Professor Hirota.
After getting closer, Shiraishi heard Professor Hirota's voice: "Okay, I have an impression of you. Haha, you are so nice and lively."
"..." Shimoda Kohei is going too?
Is this opening up some wonderful hidden plot...
…………
The funds of the Academy of Fine Arts next door seem to be much more abundant than those of Professor Hirota's family.
The villa rented by Teacher Banqiao is not only large in area but also has a good view. There is also a cliff in front of the villa, and under the cliff is a shallow pool of hot springs. Although it is being repaired this season and cannot be entered to play, the view from a distance is also very beautiful.
In such a big villa, before a group of them came to seek refuge, only three people lived there - a professor, plus two students, a boy and a girl.
The two students actually knew Shimoda Kohei, and after seeing him get off the bus, they came over to say hello in a familiar manner.
——Shimoda Kohei is an art teacher at Tedan Elementary School, and he and the other two were college classmates. Later, Shimoda Kohei was not interested in further studies, so he went to teach in elementary schools after graduation. The other two worked for a while, and felt that they should go to graduate school, so they decided to go back to school.
Together with my partner, I was admitted to Banqiao Sheng's research laboratory.
Shiraishi looked at the three people chatting together, and then took a special look at the taskbar.
There is no new task popping up above, it is still the same one as before.
The revenge license on Shimoda Kohei has still not been consumed.
...Is this considered a holiday for him?
I just haven’t skied much...
Shiraishi took out his newly bought skateboard from the car.
