Conan's other self

First, he mentioned the "accident half a year ago" that was interrupted midway through, and then looking at Conan's appearance of listening carefully to the conversation, Maplehara had a vague feeling that something might happen tonight.

It's just that he has no memory of what is happening now and cannot match reality with memory.

Feng Yuan didn’t think much about it. If he tried to match everything in real life in his memory, he would not be able to get through life.

Xiaolan, Conan, and Yuanzi were chatting with their new acquaintances. Haiyuan Ai beside him couldn't help but covered his mouth and coughed again. Fengyuan turned his head and asked, "Would you like to sit at a nearby restaurant for a while?"

This is an open-air skating rink, and it's obviously warmer indoors.

Hui Yuan Ai shook his head, "No, it's time to set off the fireworks soon."

She wasn't very interested in the fireworks here, but she was here anyway, so it might as well take a look.

During these days, fireworks are set off at Dorobica Amusement Park at seven o'clock every night. The ice rink is also the best place to enjoy the fireworks and a nearby amusement castle, so many people gather here.

Xiaolan and Yuanzi came here because of this.

So did this group of people I just met.

After the handsome boy Oda Kunitomo left, Chihiro Itami, who fell down first, also said that he was going to the dressing room and would leave temporarily. Everyone else had their own things to do.

In the blink of an eye, these five people all dispersed, and they agreed with Xiaolan and Yuanzi who stayed where they were to treat them as a place to meet again.

There are always people who suddenly have something else to do just when things are about to begin. Like that group of people, so is the garden.

Then she suddenly wanted to go to the bathroom just as the fireworks were about to start, so she hurriedly slipped away on her skates. Xiaolan and her three children were left lying on the guardrail of the rink, looking at the sky, waiting for the fireworks. Performance.

Xiaolan took this opportunity to ask Haiyuan Ai a few questions with concern. Although Xiaolan felt that the child was a little cold, every question she had was answered seriously.

She thought the child was quite cute.

Boom——Bang——

At seven o'clock, the fireworks rose on time.

"Wow! So beautiful!" Xiaolan exclaimed, then looked at Haiyuan Ai, who was standing on her left and had just gotten acquainted with her, "Isn't that right, Xiao Ai?"

"Yes." Hui Yuarai responded softly.

"Indeed, especially the fireworks at the beginning are the most beautiful."

"Eh?" Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, turned her head and looked around, and found that the person who interrupted was Izumi Sano, whom she had met before, "You still came to see me."

"Yeah, I haven't seen it for a long time anyway."

"Huh! Fortunately I caught up." Misawa Koji also rushed over, panting, "Hey... where are Chihiro and your friend?"

"Didn't you meet them in the bathroom?" Xiaolan asked. They should both be in the bathroom.

"Did I miss it? The toilets here are being cleaned, so I changed my shoes and went to the other toilets." It was as if they had been agreed upon one after another, and Komatsu Raiko arrived just in time.

Then, a scream that almost echoed through the sky answered their doubts.

This is Sonoko's scream.

…

Suzuki Sonoko opened the door of the toilet cubicle and saw the body.

There was a pool of blood on Chihiro Itami's chest, and she was leaning against the cubicle, staring blankly. There were radioactive blood stains on the wall in front of her.

Beside her head, there was an S-shaped blood mark scratched with her finger on the wall of the cubicle.

Xiaolan, who followed Conan quickly, skillfully called the police, and then rushed back to pull Uncle Maori, who was sleeping in the car, to the scene.

Maplehara slowed down a little. Conan was there anyway, so he walked over. By the time he and Haibara Ai arrived, a large group of people had already gathered in the bathroom.

After watching for a while, Hui Yuan Ai couldn't help coughing again.

"It's okay," Haiyuan Ai said softly after noticing Feng Yuan's gaze, "You should just focus on the case."

"We are the police, please give way." As he was speaking, a familiar voice came from behind. It was Officer Takagi who squeezed in from the crowd of onlookers.

The police officers seemed to be doing business at an amusement park...

It came too fast.

Maplehara thought to himself, and then saw Police Department Megure squeeze in behind Officer Takagi.

"Anyone who has nothing to do with it, please leave!" Megure Police Department shouted, and then glanced at the death scene, "The death is really tragic, no one has gone in, right?"

"Yes, when we arrived, this boy was..."

Following Misawa Koji's gaze, Megure Police Department and Officer Takagi saw Conan who was meditating on the side.

"this means…"

Memu Police Department looked back skillfully.

"Oops! It's just a coincidence, it's just a coincidence!" Uncle Maori scratched his cheek in embarrassment, "Don't be angry, police department."

"Haha, I can't even get angry."

The Mumu Police Department was not angry. It was already past seven o'clock. He hadn't even finished the matter of the sniper killing of Kenzo Tenmayama and the disappearance of Representative Tonkou and his family. He happened to be passing by the amusement park when he received a call from the Metropolitan Police Department. I didn't even have a drink of water all day long.

Officer Takagi is obviously not familiar enough with Conan and does not understand why the Megure Police Department is unhappy. He knelt down with his gloves on and picked up the shotgun on the floor of the cubicle.

"Police department, the murder weapon should be this gun!"

"Okay, let's first investigate the gun number and see who it belongs to."

The case is important, and now the police department is no longer entangled.

"It's mine," Sano Izumi responded, "It's the shotgun I use to practice target shooting. It should be placed in an automatic locker with an electronic lock along with other people's guns..."

"Other people's guns?"

"Yes, Chihiro, me, and the three people behind me," Sano Izumi pointed at Misawa Koji and others, "we are all target shooting companions."

"Then who locked the electronic lock on the automatic locker?"

"It's me, but everyone knows the password," said Komatsu Raiko in the crowd, "because when everyone came here before, they set the password as the homonym for target shooting companion [9017]."

So checking the owner of the gun won't work, and since they've only had target practice during the day, checking for smoke reactions won't work either.

According to Oda Kunitomo, their guns are all disassembled and stored. Not only can you not see the guns inside from the outside of the box, but the guns are also disassembled and stored, making it impossible for ordinary people to assemble them easily.

So the case is a classic choice of four, and the prisoner is most likely one of the four.

However, the procedures that should be followed still need to be followed. The Mumu Police Department soon sent someone to see if anyone noticed anyone acting suspiciously when the crime occurred.

Suzuki Sonoko raised her hand.

"I-I saw it."

"What?" The Mumu Police Department looked happy.

"Really, Sonoko?"

Suzuki Sonoko recalled:

"Well, there was a sign at the door of the bathroom that said it was being cleaned, and there was no response when I knocked on the door, so I stood at the door and waited."

"The fireworks started to set off, so I walked away from the door and went to a nearby window to watch the fireworks. Just then, I saw a weird man wearing a hooded coat coming out..."

Unfortunately, Sonoko didn't see the prisoner's face clearly, so the clue ended here.

The Memu Police Department and Uncle Maori fell into deep thought.

Conan stood aside and glanced at the S-shaped blood stain that seemed to be left by the deceased.

Sano Izumi's last name is pronounced sano. If you think that the blood stains are a death message left by the deceased, then this undoubtedly points to Sano Izumi...

But Chihiro Itami was shot to death with a shotgun placed close to the heart, so it was impossible to leave a death message after being shot.

The murderer is completely superfluous.

"Don't you go and take a look?" Haiyuan Ai said to Fengyuan. The scene in the compartment could hardly be seen from where the two of them were.

After saying that, she couldn't help coughing again.

"Why don't you go sit in a warm place?" Fengyuan said, "Or I'll accompany you back to the car first."

"Ah, Mr. Detective, are you concerned about me?"

"That's right," Feng Yuan said without changing his expression, "Your coughing is so disturbing that I can't concentrate on the case at all."

"...I'm really sorry about that." Hui Yuan Ai turned his head away, his eyes wandering, "...I wish you could have solved the case as soon as possible."

Feng Yuan felt that what Hai Yuan Ai said made sense.

There are always some prisoners who think their designs are clever, but fail to notice even the most basic things.

So even though Fengyuan actually had no impression of the case in front of him, his observation skills still helped a lot.

"...I'll come as soon as I go."

Maplehara said, and then walked towards Conan in the crowd.

Haiyuan Ai was a little surprised, because Fengyuan seemed to have never seen the death scene...

"Conan." Fengyuan shouted, pulling Conan aside who was thinking.

"Fengyuan! I was just about to tell you," Conan said. Fengyuan didn't believe his lies. "The deceased's hand was always in his pocket..."

"Look here." Fengyuan interrupted Conan's reasoning rudely and pointed to the ground nearby.

Conan was stunned for a moment, looked down, and then saw two black red spots on the ground.

"..."

"Yes." Fengyuan said, "And there is still blood on the blades of someone's skates. She didn't even notice it."

Really boring.

Conan thought to himself.

…

The murderer is none other than Izumi Sano.

Sano Izumi, like many other murderers, was unwilling to simply kill someone and run away. He accidentally got the blood of the deceased while leaving an S-shaped blood stain in a mysterious way.

Although this was enough, Conan still answered several other questions stubbornly through Uncle Maori's voice.

For example, the murderer used a five-yuan coin to make a hissing sound, which made Yuanzi think that the subsequent gunfire was the sound of fireworks.

Another example is the deceased's hand that was always in her pocket. In fact, she blindly typed "KIX" on her mobile phone as a death message, which refers to the three-character abbreviation of Kansai International Airport in Izumisano City, Osaka, which implies Sano Izumi.

In fact, except for Oda Kunitomo, including Mr. Narita who died six months ago, all the surnames are after the location of the airport.

This is why Chihiro Itami said that Kunitomo Oda was "unsociable".

After a moment of silence, Sano Izumi confessed and began to describe his motive for the murder.

"Narita committed suicide. I had a cold at home that day. Narita called me from the shooting range and told me that he was betrayed by a friend... Chihiro and Oda had a relationship..."

"But wasn't Oda dating you at the time?"

"Yes! He clearly knows——"

"She is lying." Oda Kunitomo said, "That woman always talks nonsense like this."

"Then why didn't you tell Narita that day?" Sano Izumi asked, "He said he asked you, but you were absent-minded and ignored him."

"...The sad thing is that I didn't pay attention to what he said," Oda Kunitomo said after a moment of silence, "because I have been thinking about you at home with a cold."

"..."

This is just a misunderstanding.

This misunderstanding aggravated Sano Izumi's murderous thoughts and was also the reason why she complicated the murder. She wanted to blame Oda Kunito for not watching the fireworks, so she had no alibi.

This misunderstanding also caused Sano Izumi and Oda to break up half a year ago.

"Can I really trust you?" Sano Izumi said when being taken away by Officer Takagi, "From now on, no matter how far away we are..."

"Well, don't worry," Oda said in a deep voice, "I am a persistent and clinging man."

…

No one knows the final end of the story caused by the misunderstanding, but for Maplehara and his party, today's case is considered over.

Feng Yuan glanced at Hai Yuan Ai who couldn't help coughing again.

"Come on, cold man."

"I know, a misfit."
