Conan’s Sin System

"I think this should be a code."

Looking at the poker card photos on the phone, Shinichi Takada said.

Azusa Enomoto asked in confusion: "After seeing these photos, his brother also didn't know what they meant?"

"Yes."

Yoko Okino nodded: "When we plan to find Mr. Kankang, we will think about what these photos mean together. I asked him to send the photos to me, but in the end no one could solve it."

Shinichi Takada asked: "Have you sent a message or called Mr. Kankang?"

Yoko Okino replied: "Yes, Mr. Fuugo called several times, but Mr. Kankang's phone seems to be turned off."

"Did you look around the villa?" Ran Maori asked.

“We looked for him.”

Yoko Okino nodded: “At that time, only Mr. Fuugo and I could walk easily. We even searched the woods around the villa, but we still couldn’t find him. Mr. Hiroshima and I couldn’t just leave, so we canceled many work schedules and stayed in the villa to help find him. However, on the morning of the fourth day...”

“Mr. Fuugo suddenly remembered that when he was a child, he would play poker with his brother Mr. Kanko in the attic room, so he wondered if Mr. Kanko would be there.”

“Yoko, do you know why they played in the attic?” Shinichi Takada asked.

Yoko Okino: “I heard that their parents are very strict and will not buy toys for them. So after they were taken to the villa, they would always hide in the attic room to play without telling their parents. Therefore, Mr. Fuugo thought that his brother Mr. Kanko might be in the attic.”

Shinichi Takada nodded and motioned for Yoko Okino to continue.

Yoko Okino saw this and said, "So we went to the attic, but the ladder leading to the attic was locked in the attic and couldn't be lowered, so we called the police and asked them to break the attic window to look inside."

"When the police arrived, they found Mr. Kan'yasu inside, but he was hit by a crossbow in the back and had unfortunately died."

Hearing this, Shinichi Takada said, "The police broke the window to get in, which means the window was closed at the time?"

"Yes."

Yoko Okino nodded.

Takada Shinichi immediately said, "So, this is a murder in a closed room."

"When we were looking for someone in the woods, we found a crossbow around the villa. How did the murderer lock Mr. Guankang in the attic? What about the photo of the playing cards sent to his brother? Moreover, since he could send photos with his mobile phone, why didn't he call the police directly?"

"There are too many doubts. I can't figure it out. This matter has made me unable to sleep."

"Shinichi, please, you must help me solve these doubts."

Okino Yoko has too many doubtsShe wanted to know the truth, so after thinking for a long time and still not being able to figure it out, she decided to come to Takada Shinichi for help.

"Leave it to me, Yoko."

Takada Shinichi smiled and said, "I am a professional in detective work. Many doubts that you can't solve are nothing to me."

Uncovering the truth of the incident is a good thing, and it will deduct sin points, but the four women next to him are all his women, so of course he has to perform well in front of them. It's impossible that he can't even handle such a small case.

"Well, Shinichi, I know you can do it."

Okino Yoko nodded with a smile, full of confidence in Takada Shinichi's ability.

Mouri Ran, Enomoto Azusa, and Miyano Akemi didn't think Takada Shinichi would be stumped by this incident.

In terms of trust in Shinichi Takada's ability, Mao Lilan, Okino Yoko and other women have the same attitude. They believe in Shinichi Takada unconditionally. This may be due to the blindness of love, but it is also related to the fact that Shinichi Takada has always been omnipotent in front of them.

Shinichi Takada said at this time: "Although this is a closed room murder case, from the bloodstains and footsteps in the corridor, it can be judged that Mr. Guankang should have been shot in the corridor and fled to the attic. The question now is, why didn't he call for help, but hid in the attic and sent a message with a hidden code to his brother, which made it so troublesome?"

"This is also something I can't understand."

Okino Yoko agreed with this.

"That..."

Azusa Enomoto looked at Yoko Okino and said, "Miss Yoko, do you have any photos of the people who were in the villa with you at that time? It's really hard to imagine them just by listening to what you said."

Ran Maori nodded and agreed, "I think so too."

"Wait a moment, I remember we took photos together."

Yoko Okino picked up the phone on the table, operated it, called up a photo, and then put the phone back on the table.

"｀ 々This is a photo of them taken together at that time. Because I took it, I am not in it."

Shinichi Takada and others leaned over to look at it.

Ran Maori asked, "Who are these people?"

Yoko Okino introduced Shinichi Takada and others.

The young man on the far left wearing glasses and leaning on a cane is Hijima Wanye, a producer of Nichimi TV; the short, pot-bellied man in the middle is the victim of this case, Baba Kan'yasu; the tall, thin man on the right with a bandage on his left hand is Makawa Fuugo; the woman in the wheelchair is Baba Himi.

Except for Baba Kan'yasu who was killed, the other people all have injuries on their bodies. At present, we can only think that this is just a coincidence.

After looking at the photo, Shinichi Takada said to Yoko Okino: "The photo with the code before (Ma Ma Zhao) has many identical playing cards on it, which means there are many decks in the attic.Poker cards, did Mr. Fuugo say anything about this?

"Mr. Fuugo did say this."

Okino Yoko nodded and said, "He said that when the two brothers went to the villa area to play when they were young, they were afraid of being discovered by their parents, so every summer vacation when they went to the villa area, they would bring a new deck of playing cards, and leave the playing cards in the attic afterwards, so there are about five or six decks of playing cards in the attic."

"That makes sense."

Takada Shin nodded. Although it is still impossible to determine who the murderer is, it is certain that there is something wrong with Baba Fuugo.

The reason is also very simple. Since Baba Kankang sent a photo with a code to Baba Fuugo, he must have thought that Baba Fuugo understood the meaning of the code, but it turned out that he died in the attic. Obviously, his trusted brother Baba Fuugo did not save him.
