Conan's Strongest Uncle
Chapter 0024 Warring States Scroll
Mouri Kogoro was holding Haibara in his left hand and Xiao Ran in his right hand. He looked at the few people who were scattered away, his eyes narrowed slightly.
If Mouri Kogoro remembers correctly, the members of Japan's Warring States Travel Agency should be looking for the treasure known as the Golden King left by Toyotomi Shūkichi, one of the three heroes of the Warring States Period.
However, according to the anime plot, the treasure of the Golden King does not seem to exist.
It was stolen by the big thief long ago, and a group of them are all in vain.
Mouri Kogoro didn't care about these people. Anyway, they were not good things. At most, they just got points when the case appeared.
The group followed Xiao Ran into a takoyaki shop and began to taste Osaka's specialty takoyaki.
After entering the restaurant, the originally bright sky changed suddenly, a light rain started to fall, and the whole sky became dark.
Xiao Ran looked at the rain outside the window with a small face, and looked distressed: "Oh, I didn't expect it to rain all of a sudden. I was thinking of having fun in the afternoon."
Kazuha also had a look of pity: "Yes, I originally wanted to take you to see the Tenjin Festival, as well as the temple fairs next to the river bank. If it rains, I can only soak up the soup."
The two girls sighed, but Haibara on the side didn't respond. She was always happy and didn't like to move. She didn't care about going out to play. The key is to be with Mouri Kogoro!
His short legs kicked Mouri Kogoro from time to time, and from time to time he opened his mouth to bite down the octopus balls that Mouri Kogoro handed over, his eyes full of smiles.
Kazuha turned his head to look at Xiao Ran, and whispered, "Xiao Ran, why don't we stop playing in the afternoon, I know a cow and milk hot spring, which is good for the skin, why don't we go to the hot spring in the afternoon!"
Xiao Ran's big eyes suddenly lit up.
...
At this moment, there was a sound of an explosion outside, which attracted tourists to look up one by one.
"Look, someone above set himself on fire!"
Countless people looked up at the Tianshou Pavilion above. On the top of the Tianshou Pavilion, a man was burning with white flames.
Hattori Heiji and Conan rushed out immediately after hearing this, Mouri Kogoro raised his eyebrows, took the toilet paper aside and wiped the ketchup from Haibara's mouth, and then ordered: "You guys continue to eat, I'll go see what's outside. Happening."
Then he picked up his umbrella and walked out.
Soon he saw a group of people on the left side of the tower, and across the crowd, he saw Hattori Heiji and Conan surrounded by a charred corpse.
Hattori Heiji kept pressing the charred corpse's heart, performing CPR operations, and Conan was on the phone, planning to call an ambulance.
Mouri Kogoro stepped forward, knocked down the charred corpse with his hand, and instantly found out its condition.
This guy couldn't die any longer, not because he was burned to death, but because he fell to his head and fell to the ground.
"Heiji, he is helpless, call the police!"
Hattori Heiji sighed and stood up: "Uncle, he stretched out his hand to hold this umbrella just now, it should be a death message!"
After saying that, Hattori Heiji called Officer Otaki, and then he took Conan and ran to the castle tower.
...
Not long after, Officer Otaki, who had only met yesterday, appeared on the side of the Tianshou Pavilion.
The members of the group of Warring States Travel Agency also all gathered over, one by one holding umbrellas and watching.
The middle-aged woman Katagiri Maho said slyly: "I didn't expect Mr. Kato to make such a choice, obviously he looked very happy when we traveled together!"
The bald old man Zaowu Youxian sighed: "It's hard for one person to see another person clearly. Maybe he is happy on the surface, but he is actually very painful inside."
Otaki Goro looked at the scorched corpse in the field carefully, because he heard Mouri Kogoro's scolding yesterday, so he is looking for clues very seriously at this moment.
After a while, Otaki Goro raised his head from the platform and turned to look at Mouri Kogoro: "Mouri-kun, this deceased should have committed suicide. The crowd said that he climbed up to the fourth of the Tianshou Pavilion by himself when it was raining. The eaves of the building, and then set fire to self-immolation there, and rolled down with white flames all over."
"He's still wearing a sweater that is easy to burn, and it's raining again. How could he roll down like this without committing suicide, right?"
Hearing Ohtaki Goro's reasoning, Mouri Kogoro sneered in his heart.
This guy, like Megure Jūuuzou, likes to push his case to suicide the most.
In fact, the Japanese police generally like to do this. As long as the motive for suicide is found, the case can be closed. There is no need to find the murderer and find evidence at all, so the detection rate will be higher.
Mix and mix and you can climb up!
This is Otaki Goro's favorite and most accustomed practice.
But at this time, Conan and Hattori Heiji returned from the search of the castle tower.
Hattori Heiji said, "Officer Otaki, it's too early to draw conclusions. This is what we found when we climbed to the roof of the castle tower."
Hattori Heiji pulls out a lighter in a plastic bag.
Otaki Goro looked puzzled: "Heiji, doesn't this mean that the deceased committed suicide?"
Hattori Heiji shook his head and said: "How could a person who commits suicide close the lid of the lighter, and what is even more suspicious is that I found a small fan under the lighter that was not exposed to the rain. I guess it should be placed in the original place. Something else is right."
Hearing this inference, Otaki Goro still felt far-fetched.
The forensic staff on the side said, "Inspector, the belongings of the deceased have been sorted out."
The crowd immediately gathered around and saw a wallet, a mobile phone, a key, a small fragment, and a scroll.
Otaki Goro opened the scroll, and saw that it was burnt and dilapidated, with only a dragon character written on it.
Several people in the same tour group on the side saw the scroll, and their eyes lit up.
Mouri Kogoro, wearing gloves, was about to pick up the scroll: "Lend me take a look."
Then open the reel and expose it to the rain. After the rain gets wet, the information will be revealed on the top.
Hattori Heiji, Conan, Otaki Goro and the others gathered around in amazement.
The exposed traces are in the shape of a gourd, and there are some words written on it, but they were burned to the point of being unable to form a sentence, and I don't know what it means!
"Wow, Detective Mouri, how did you know this scroll has to be watered for information to surface?"
Mouri Kogoro pointed to where the scroll was burnt, and there were a few traces of paper in the gap.
"It's very simple. I saw that although the edges of the scroll paper were glued together, there were many layers of paper marks on the burned place. The ancients liked to leave messages on the paper inside. It is a way of secret letter, just Give it a try, it really has some content!"
Hearing this, everyone was full of admiration.
At this time Xiao Ran's voice sounded: "Dad, what are you doing here?"
The three girls who were not waiting for Mouri Kogoro in the restaurant came out.
