Conan reborn as a detective

Chapter 307

The third day of the mermaid event.

Gao Cheng and Hui Yuan stood together in front of the smoky shrine warehouse, silently watching the busy firefighters on the island.

When he arrived here, the fire could not be stopped, and the warehouse burned all night, and it was completely burnt down like three years ago, turning into a charred ruin.

Also found a charred corpse...

"Although it was burnt black," said the firefighter in the Shimashiro family's house with a tired face, "it can still be seen, wearing glasses and wearing blue clothes... probably the dead body of Saori whose whereabouts are unknown. Bar……"

"But, but..." He Ye and Xiaolan trembled in shock, "The person we saw in the yard... Could it be a ghost?"

Changshou Po walked tremblingly to the side of the corridor yard, and ignored everyone, but kept shouting hoarsely in the house: "Jun Hui! Where are you, Jun Hui?"

Hattori watched the old man walk by, and asked strangely, "Miss Jun Hui hasn't come back yet?"

"Well," He Ye looked at the lonely longevity woman and said worriedly, "I'd better follow the old woman to have a look..."

"I'll go too."

Heye and Xiaolan ran away in a hurry, following up with the longevity woman who disappeared around the corner, Conan looked serious at this scene, and said softly: "Hey, Hattori, I remember Miss Junhui said that she had only seen a dentist before. Right? If you ask her by her name, you should be able to immediately know which dentist it is..."

Hattori's face froze, and he turned slightly pale: "You idiot...what are you talking about? Could it be..."

"Stop pretending!" Conan said in a deep voice, "You should think of it like me now, right? I have a... ominous premonition..."

Gao Cheng came back to his senses, looked away from the ruins, walked to the yard and looked at Conan and the two without speaking.

Outside Changshoupo's bedroom, Heye and Xiaolan closed the wooden door with ease, with worried expressions still on their brows.

"How is it?" Gao Cheng asked, "Where is the longevity woman?"

"I fell asleep for the time being, but I'm still talking about Miss Junhui..."

Xiaolan worried: "Could something happen to Miss Jun Hui?"

Gao Cheng smiled and comforted him: "Don't worry, Miss Jun Hui will be fine."

Of course nothing will happen, and I am still alive and well, right under my nose...

Gao Cheng calmly looked at Changshou Po's bedroom.

After the whole incident became clear and all the impossibilities were eliminated, the final truth was presented to him. No matter how unexpected it was, facts are facts, and the long-lived woman should be Junhui Shimashiro.

Just one last message...

At noon, a phone call was made to the shrine. Uncle Mao Li answered the phone and announced to everyone in a deep voice: "After comparing the tooth shape of the corpse with the records left by Miss Junhui during the treatment...the information is completely consistent..."

"what?"

"how can that be?"

Hattori swallowed dryly, and clenched his teeth tightly: "Damn it! If we had been more cautious yesterday..."

"Miss Junhui..." Xiaolan and the two girls wiped away their tears, "So good Miss Junhui..."

He Ye directly sobbed and cried: "Miss Jun Hui was still with us last night, woo woo woo..."

Hattori looked at Kazuha who was crying bitterly, and said with condensed eyes: "No matter who the murderer is, one thing is certain, that is, he must not be allowed to continue to go unpunished... He is simply a person who does not take human life seriously. The murderer!"

"But why did the murderer kill Miss Jun Hui? The previous few times were all for the arrow of the dugong?"

Uncle Mao Li asked strangely: "And why does Miss Jun Hui dress like a yarn?"

"I'm afraid Miss Junhui bumped into something, and after killing Miss Junhui, she wanted to confuse the public," Hattori thought, "There was a glass door in the corridor that was broken last night, it seems to be here to steal the autograph book... that door Uncle Wei is very suspicious, I heard that his fingerprints were also found on the life buoy, but now the police can't find anyone else..."

After a pause, Hattori subconsciously wanted to call Kudo, met Conan's gaze and changed his words in time: "How about this, Kido, uncle, after seeing the longevity woman, let's go out and look for it..."

Gao Cheng interrupted: "Let me come to Changshou Po... Xiao Ai and I will stay and take care of that old woman."

Hattori looked at Gao Cheng strangely, confused why Gao Cheng was not in a hurry to solve the case.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you here."

……

Outside Changshou Po's bedroom, Uncle Mori, Hattori, and Ye left the Shimashiroya Shrine, while Gao Cheng and the others stayed behind, kneeling in silence at the door, reluctantly talking about the charred corpse in the warehouse.

"Really? Jun Hui is gone too..." The old man was lying on the bed with an old face and lifeless, as if he might close his eyes forever at any time.

Xiaolan blamed herself with tears in her eyes: "It's all because we didn't follow Miss Junhui, if Miss Junhui didn't go to the warehouse alone..."

The old man's voice was tired: "The young lives are gone one by one, but I drag this body to continue to linger... Sorry, can you let me be alone?"

"Old lady," Conan asked anxiously, "I heard that the old lady asked someone to relocate the mermaid's grave to the mountain two years ago. Who did you ask?"

"What's the use of asking?" The old man shook his head slightly, closed his eyes and said sadly, "Because even that person left me and left..."

"That's it."

"Okay, Conan, don't ask so many questions at this time."

Feeling guilty, Xiaolan dragged Conan away, but Gao Cheng didn't leave, but stayed with Huiyuan.

Changshou Po opened her eyes unconsciously, and saw Gao Cheng leaning quietly against the door, and said weakly, "Is there anything else?"

"Old lady...or should I call you Miss Junhui?"

Gao Cheng asked calmly, seeing the old man's expression unchanged, he continued: "The police have already started searching for Mr. Kadowaki, and I believe they will be found soon."

"Really?" The old man's eyes dimmed, "When did you find out?"

"It felt a little uncoordinated at the beginning, but Miss Junhui's makeup skills are really amazing. I never thought that the longevity woman who lived 130 years old is actually Miss Junhui in disguise..."

Gao Cheng crossed his arms and said calmly: "The first case is that Miss Shoumei was hanged on the Mermaid Waterfall, the second case was that Miss Naoko was strangled to death and hung on a fishing net, and the third case, 'Miss Junhui ' burnt to death in warehouses...

"If it's just a single case, it may not be possible to determine the murderer, but all the mysteries can be solved when connected together. Miss Shoumei and Miss Naoko's drawing of the dugong arrow is the key to the case. Miss Junhui, you have planned it in advance everything, right?"

Looking at the silent old man, Gao Cheng continued: "The reason why Ms. Shoumei was disguised as an accidental death is to prevent the police from launching an investigation because of the homicide, so as to facilitate the killing of Ms. Naoko later. It happened that the weather was bad that day and the police couldn't come , your plan went well, and then, taking advantage of the police being attracted by the footprints, you deliberately said that you would come back to check the roster, and then burned 'Miss Junhui' to death in the warehouse under the pretext of throwing off Xiaolan and the others...

"However, that charred corpse is actually Saori Kadowaki who was killed a few days ago. The so-called tooth shape is just a trap... That's right, the one who went to the dentist before should be Miss Saori who stole her insurance card , and lent her her insurance card to let her receive treatment as you...

"Even Miss Saori that Xiaolan and the others saw was dressed up by you, right? Because Miss Saori often runs away from home, leaving spare clothes and glasses here..."

The eyes of the old man in the house trembled, and the horror at Gao Cheng's words could no longer be hidden in his eyes.

Gao Cheng paused, did not continue, listened to the sound of the waves outside the shrine and asked: "Is the sea behind this?"

"Yes," said the old man, looking at the blue sky, "Going out from behind the shrine is the sea..."

"Hatori called Miss Saori, and the first call I heard was the sound of waves and... the sobbing of a woman..."

Gao Cheng stood up straight with his back to the bedroom, put his hands in like this, took a deep breath and said, "You were crying at that time, right? It was at the warehouse, next to Miss Saori's body... Miss Junhui, just now , Xiaolan and the others are still grieving over your death, and they don't believe that kind Miss Junhui will be killed..."

"Really?" The old man turned his head away, his voice choked with sobs.

"Go and surrender," Gao Cheng bowed, and carelessly pulled Hui Yuan away, "I won't tell anyone else."
