Chapter 726: Opportunity, grasp, understand?

Under the gaze of Mouri Kogoro, the three of them felt a little embarrassed.

The three of them looked at each other, and tacitly chose the fox-eyed screenwriter as the representative, and asked: "You can even tell what kind of poison is used."

"Who are you?"

Hearing this, Qin Zhibo was puzzled that some people didn't know this common sense of life.

Cyanide, low dosage, quick effect, almond flavor, no negative reviews after 10 years of sales.

Cyanide is always available at home. There is no overnight grudge in life. Everyone in Mihua knows this.

Yes, this is not rice krispies.

When asked about his identity, Mouri Kogoro moved his shoulders and struck a handsome pose.

"Actually, my last name is Mouri, and I am the famous detective Kogoro Mouri."

After introducing his identity, Mouri Kogoro raised his voice again, "This is now a murder scene. No one is allowed to approach this dining table until the police arrive."

Yokohama is not far from Tokyo, and Mouri Kogoro's name is very useful here, and the onlookers immediately backed away.

The other three members of the crew could only walk aside obediently, but they saw Qin Zhibo wandering around the dining table again.

"Well, how can he be there?" the assistant director asked.

Mouri Kogoro glanced back and said angrily: "He will not touch the scene."

After the words fell, Mouri Kogoro also went back to investigate.

The three of them were still a little confused about what this meant. Mao Lilan on the side explained: "Actually, Mr. Qin is also a detective like my father."

"Qin"

Qin Zhibo also gradually gained celebrity status. The screenwriter Fox Eyes thought for a while and thought of his full name, "Is it the famous detective Qin Zhibo?"

Two famous detectives came to dinner together and instantly shocked the three members of the crew who were still alive.

Director Isogami, in particular, did not expect that among the few people Kawabata randomly invited before his death, he would choose two detectives.

How could it be such a coincidence?

Did this guy know that his death was imminent, so he specially called two famous detectives?

Isogami's hands were clenched tightly, and large beads of sweat remained on his temples. Fortunately, his beard was thick enough to hide the sweat secreted due to nervousness.

But now, he can only rely on the technique he has practiced dozens of times at home.

As a director, he knows that many things gain fame through flattery.

The same goes for famous detectives. As long as they report the solved cases and conceal their names from the unsolved cases, they will naturally become famous.

In other words, being a famous detective does not mean that he is invincible. As long as he can handle the subsequent inquiries well, he still has a chance of winning.

Isogami clenched his hands so hard that the blood vessels bulged, and he kept cheering himself up in his mind.

At the dining table, Qin Zhibo has already finished searching the investigation points.

The investigation points provided by the system's investigation function can often determine the reasoning direction of a case.

For Qin Zhibo, searching for investigation points in such a space that is smaller than a room is not even difficult for a primary school student, at most it is like a kindergarten.

Wherever it lights up, click there.

There is an investigation point in the lower half of Kawabata's body.

【Survey√】

[The pants that were spilled by the sauce are now dry, but the color is a bit strange]

The meaning of the investigation is unclear, but it can be regarded as a hint that this may be a key clue.

And on the dining table, there is an aboveboard investigation point.

【Survey√】

[This is a towel, it will be more interesting if you open it and look at it]

This towel for wiping your mouth after eating happened to be placed next to where Director Isogami sat.

The location of this investigation point is very telling, but Qin Zhibo cannot be 100% sure that the murderer is Isogami.

Recall that when Kawabata first "left the table", the scene was a bit chaotic and anyone had the opportunity to make some small moves.

Moreover, the method is not clear yet. If you just throw away a piece of evidence that you don’t know why it exists, the reasoning may fail, allowing old boy Conan to get in first and solve the case.

So Qin Zhibo decided to check what was in the towel first and understand the murder method.

But just when Qin Zhibo put on the magic extractor and was about to reach out for the towel, a shout suddenly came from the crowd.

"Don't move!"

Qin Zhibo looked over and saw someone walking out of the crowd.

"I saw what you did just now. Are you trying to sabotage the murder case?"

The short-haired man casually flashed his ID, put it back in his pocket, and stared at Qin Zhibo with a death stare.

Qin Zhibo also looked up and down at the man in front of him and saw the message above his head.

Henggou Shigego, 35 years old, police officer, social credit 2,400.

It was a policeman whom I didn’t recognize, and he was dispatched quite quickly.

Qin Zhibo retracted his hand and said with a smile: "Mr. policeman, don't get me wrong. My name is Qin Zhibo. I am a detective. I am just checking the scene a little."

According to the rules of this world, if you show your identity as a detective at a murder scene, you will often get respect and courtesy from the police.

But just when Qin Zhibo thought it would be the same this time, Henggou Chongwu didn't follow the routine.

"Qin Zhibo?"

"The name sounds familiar"

"But this is a murder scene now. Non-related personnel like you, please step aside."

Although Henggou Shigego said "please", his attitude was not polite at all, and he rejected Qin Zhibo's idea of ​​continuing to investigate the towels on the table.

Qin Zhibo obediently walked to the side. Although he was a little angry, he also admired the policeman.

He is a breath of fresh air among the police who does not flatter the detectives but believes in his own philosophy of handling cases.

I'm just afraid that his ability is not worthy of his unruly character.

Mouri Kogoro on the side saw his colleague shivering in front of the police, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he stepped forward with a confident expression.

"Ahem, this police officer, let me introduce the case."

"Stand back!"

Just when Mouri Kogoro was about to show off himself and let his peers see the difference in fame, he was scolded by Yokomori Jugo.

However, Yokomori Juugo only stared at Mouri Kogoro for a second and realized that he looked familiar.

"I seem to have seen your face somewhere before"

Mouri Kogoro, who had just been scolded, was full of expectations, but the next second, Yokomori Shigego said something shocking.

"Are you a wanted fugitive?"

"Ah?" Mouri Kogoro was startled and his eyes widened. He never thought that one day his evil nemesis would be viewed in this way.

"I'm that Mouri Kogoro!"

"Oh." Yokomori Shigego still had a stern expression, "So you are the sleeping Mouri Kogoro."

When he heard that his nickname was called by the wrong name, Mouri Kogoro's face darkened.

"My name is Sleeping Mouri Kogoro."

"Isn't it the same?"

"How can these be the same? Sleeping is active, and torpor is passive."

"It all looks the same to me."

Qin Zhibo + Conan: Really accurate at judging people.

After saying that, Yokomori Shigego stopped entangled with Mouri Kogoro and turned around to assign work to his subordinates.

In fact, it's not that Yokomori Shigego didn't really know Qin Zhibo and Mouri Kogoro, he just wanted to give the two famous detectives some power.

Nowadays, it is common for Japanese police to rely on detectives, which makes Shigego Yokomori seriously dissatisfied.

After all, private detectives, like lawyers, are paid professions.

Private detectives also need to take an oath. They can apply for a consulting business license to start business. The threshold is low, and with a little fame, they can give advice to the police when handling cases.

Moreover, private detectives have caused a lot of troubles, including commercial espionage, invasion of privacy, extortion, leaking case-related secrets, etc.

In short, Yokomori Jugo decided to solve the case himself this time, slap the famous detective in the face, and tell other police officers, especially his twin brother who is a superstitious detective.

Without detectives, the Japanese police can still solve the case!

Mouri Kogoro and Qin Zhibo, who were driven aside, could only watch the police busy at the murder scene.

At this time, Mao Lilan also remembered that this face looked familiar, very similar to the Henggou Sengo Police Department in Shizuoka Prefecture.

When Mouri Kogoro and Conan took a closer look, they were indeed carved from the same mold, except for the different head shapes.

This made Mouri Kogoro suddenly enlightened, thinking that it was Henggou himself, who had sharpened his ambition because he made a mistake and was demoted. He did not dare to recognize these acquaintances, so he pretended to be indifferent.

"This guy is watching me go over and expose him!"

Just as Mouri Kogoro was about to walk over, Qin Zhibo stretched out his hand to stop him.

"This should be the brother of the Henggou police officer. Don't get the wrong person."

Mao Lilan also remembered, "By the way, Officer Henggou mentioned last time that he has a twin brother who is also a policeman."

Mouri Kogoro scratched his head, "Really? The two brothers look quite similar. Why are there such big differences in their personalities?"

When the keyword "twin brothers" was mentioned, Conan on the side looked thoughtful.

Previously at the Kinoshita family villa in Shizuoka Prefecture, the murderer who killed President Majima was believed to be the twin brother of the yellow-haired man in the arcade.

However, it was later learned that the yellow-haired man was an only child and had no brothers, and he was judged to be another person who looked very much like the yellow-haired man.

But in yesterday's case in the Tou Shen Forest, Mike Hama said that there was supposed to be another person in the forest, with yellow hair and a very tall figure.

These two adjectives coincide with the murderer of President Majima, and are also the same as the yellow-haired man in the previous arcade incident.

The similarity between the first two points is easy to understand. It was Kinoshita Tomonori who asked the murderer to kill President Majima, so it is reasonable for the murderer to appear in the Togami Forest.

It was only the first incident that happened. The deceased in the arcade case, the yellow-haired man, was confirmed by the police to have been poisoned by tetrodotoxin, and his body was also examined.

How can a dead person come back to life even if his body is stolen?

This is the most incomprehensible, and it is also the main basis for the police to insist that the yellow-haired man and the murderer of President Majima are two people, with the witness statement of Mao Lilan.

But if we follow this idea, how did the yellow-haired man's body disappear? And why did it disappear?

To resurrect the corpse?

This idea was a bit too crazy, but Conan frowned and had to consider this situation.

Sherlock Holmes has a famous saying that is regarded as truth by later generations.

When all impossible conclusions are eliminated, no matter how bizarre or unbelievable the rest are, they are irrefutable facts.

Now, it is not yet to the point of ruling out all impossible conclusions.

But there must be a reason why the yellow-haired man's body disappeared.

If the body was stolen, it must be an organized and premeditated crime, so that the body could be transported away without leaving a trace while the police were transporting the body.

Human organ theft gang?

The police seem to think so now.

However, due to the limitations of the police force, the living people who are killed every day cannot be investigated, and the investigation of the whereabouts of a dead body can only be postponed indefinitely.

Then if the corpse came to life and walked away on its own, everything that follows would be easy to explain.

The thought sent shivers down Conan's body.

Although I have seen some unusual things before, floating skulls, strange pink animal corpses, and a fire tornado that seemed to be controlled by someone.

But for the detective, the resurrection of the dead is the real thing that can defeat the detective's worldview.

It can make all logical reasoning futile and plunge reason into irremediable madness.

Is resurrection of the dead really possible?

If this kind of thing really exists, it must be an authority that only gods have, and it is a restricted area of ​​life that humans can never touch.

Is it really?

Thinking of this, Conan looked down at his palms.

The tender fair skin and petite body should not have been possessed by the seventeen-year-old me.

If the resurrection of dead bodies is a forbidden area of ​​life, then what is the reversal of physical age?

It turned out that I had unknowingly crossed the restricted area that humans should not touch.

If the indelible traces given by time on the body can be erased, then the resurrection of the dead body will only return the body to the state before the passage of life.

Conan remembered that Haihara Ai had said the principle of APTX-4869 before. Although he didn't understand it very well, it had a scientific basis.

It seems that when I see Haiyuan next time, I will ask her if "corpse resurrection" is possible.

While Conan was thinking about the mystery of life, Mao Lilan, who had nothing to do, told Qin Zhibo about an impostor.

"Oh? There is such a thing?"

As the instigator, Qin Zhibo pretended to be six parts surprised, three parts angry, and one part indifferent.

"I'm very sorry, we didn't catch the fake person and let him escape."

The guilty Mao Lilan bowed to Qin Zhibo. As soon as he straightened his back, his eyes turned white and his brain went into a trance.

Mouri Kogoro and Qin Zhibo quickly helped the person sit down on the chair next to him, and then touched his forehead. The temperature was a bit hot.

"You have a fever, Xiaolan!"

"Go to the hospital, Sister Xiaolan!"

Mouri Kogoro was a little anxious, and Conan also stopped thinking about life and ran over to show concern.

But Mao Lilan still forced a smile and shook her head.

"It's okay, I can still hold on."

Mao Lilan's so-called persistence was naturally to insist on waiting until the police finished questioning her.

Qin Zhibo took a look at Henggou Shigego's investigation progress. He couldn't say it was very fast. He could only say that he was going as fast as the bastard. He was still investigating whether the roast duck had been poisoned.

In this case, don't blame me for not giving you a chance.

You can't control it yourself!
