Conan: The truth lies only within the range of fire

There are still 20 minutes before Kogoro Mori's speech begins.

On the escalator.

Yuantai and the other two were taking the escalator downstairs.

Ayumi asked in confusion: "Huh? Where's Conan?"

Mitsuhiko guessed: "Conan should still be with Xiaolan and the others."

Yuan Tai was a little anxious: "If you don't go now, the competition will start soon!"

Huiyuan Ai, who hadn't gotten on the escalator yet, shouted to Yuanta and the other two, "How about this, I'll go call him, and you guys go over first!"

In the lounge.

Mao Lilan shook Mao Li Kogoro who had fallen asleep: "Dad, wake up! Dad!"

Maori Kogoro opened his eyes and asked with a big tongue: "What's wrong? I showed a wonderful sleep again... No! It should be a wonderful reasoning! Is there? But, I don't remember..."

After saying that, Kogoro Mouri leaned on the table and fell asleep again.

Kamiya Minatsuki was not drunk and was playing with his mobile phone on the sofa.

In his phone was a table sent to him by Yuuto Obara, showing the profits of the Phantom Troupe and Akatsuki from the sale of weapons.

Conan looked at the sleeping Kogoro Mouri with an impressed expression.

The door of the lounge opened. Huihara Ai first glanced at the snoring Maori Kogoro, and then looked at Conan: "I knew things would turn out like this. I think you should use your voice changer to help him give the speech, how about it?"

Hearing Haibara Ai's sarcastic remarks, Conan snorted: "It's not funny at all."

"what!"

Suddenly a scream was heard.

Conan and Haibara Ai were both stunned.

Mao Lilan also heard it and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

Conan and Haibara Ai ran directly towards the place where the sound came from.

Kamiya Minatsuki was a little surprised. Could something have happened again?

Kamiya Minatsuki suddenly clapped his hands: "Damn, that kid seemed to be here just now, as if he didn't go to watch the game."

Kamiya Minatsuki was so engrossed in looking at the table that he forgot about Conan.

...

Conan and Haibara Ai ran to the place where the sound came from and found staff member Furui Norihiro sitting on the ground in front of Kenichiro Inogoshi's lounge with a look of horror on his face.

Conan asked, "What happened?"

Furui Jibao raised his hand tremblingly and pointed to the ground: "Ground, on the ground."

Conan and Haibara Ai looked at the ground and saw a lot of red liquid seeping out from the crack in the door.

is blood!

Gu Jingjibao said in a trembling voice: "Zhu, Mr. Zhu Yue asked me to bring him a cup of coffee. After I brought the coffee, I knocked on the door but no one answered."

Conan took out the small handkerchief he carried with him, wrapped it around his hand and tried to open the door.

But the door wouldn't open after a small gap, as if something was blocking it from behind.

Huiyuan Ai frowned and said: "It seems to be blocked by something. Judging from the bloodstains, it should be..."

Conan nodded seriously and said, "Yes, there is nothing wrong with that! Huibara, you watch here and don't let anyone open this door!"

Conan ran directly outside the theater and looked for the window of Kenichiro Inogoshi's lounge.

Conan found the window of Kenichiro Inogoshi's lounge, climbed up and looked inside the lounge. It was just as Conan and Haibara Ai had expected.

Blocking the door is the body of Kenichiro Inogoshi!

Kenichiro Inogoshi was sitting on a chair with its back against the door. His body was covered in blood, which flowed along the legs of the table to the ground and through the gap in the door to the outside of the lounge.

"Sure enough, it's not because the door is locked, but because the body is blocking the door. Wait! So..."

While Conan was thinking, a figure stood beside him.

It is staff Mei Tsukuba.

Mei Tsukuba looked at the body in the lounge through the window and said in a deep voice, "Yes, this is a closed room murder case! Right?"

Mei Tsukuba looked at Conan with a smile and asked.

Conan looked at Tsukuba Mei in surprise.

"Tsk, someone is dead again. You little brat should be locked up in a small dark room. Only in this way can you not come out to harm others."

Kamiya Minatsuki walked up to Conan while making sarcastic remarks and looked at Inogoshi Kenichiro in the lounge.

Conan curled his lips, ignored Kamiya Minazuki, and said to Tsukuba Mei: "Sister Mei, call the police quickly!"

Mei Tsukuba took out her cell phone and called the police.

Soon, the hardworking Officer Megure arrived here with Officers Takagi, Chiba, and a group of his subordinates.

While the police were investigating and collecting evidence at the scene.

Huihara Ai asked Conan: "What should we do? The game is about to start, let's leave it to the police."

Conan put his hands in his pockets and said seriously: "Of course I know this, but..."

"Officer Megure, I think there should be some clues left here. Please investigate carefully."

With the unremitting efforts of Maori Ran, she finally succeeded in waking up Maori Kogoro, and now brought Maori Kogoro here.

Officer Megure replied, "Okay, got it. Takagi, Chiba, take someone to check it again carefully!"

"Yes!"

Ai Huihara said to Conan: "Look, the famous detective is sober now, and the detective Kamiya is here too, right?"

Conan looked at Kogoro Mouri and Minatsuki Kamiya with a speechless look. It would be strange if Conan could feel at ease with these two detectives being together.

In order not to disrupt the scene, the police smashed the glass and directly climbed through the window into the lounge.

Officer Chiba reports what he found out from his investigation to Officer Megure.

"The deceased is actor Kenichiro Igoe, 48 years old. After Mr. Maori's speech, he had to attend an interview, so he was waiting to go on stage in this lounge. The exact cause of his death still needs to wait for the autopsy results to come out.

However, he must have been stabbed in the heart, causing excessive blood loss and death. Also, please take a look at this."

Officer Chiba took out an evidence bag, which contained a pocket watch.

"We found this in the left pocket of the deceased's shirt. The crack on this pocket watch is the same shape as the blade of the murder weapon, so it should have been damaged when the deceased was stabbed in the heart."

Inspector Megure saw the time when his pocket watch stopped and guessed: "That means the crime happened at 2:50, but the question is..."

Inspector Megure looked around the lounge.

Officer Takagi, who understood what Officer Megure wanted to say, replied, "Yes, the situation here is equivalent to a secret room. Judging from the scene, the door of the lounge can only be opened 5 centimeters wide, and it is impossible for people to enter or exit through the door. The window that was just broken was also locked before, and there is no sign of any tampering."

Inspector Megure raised a question: "It's a closed room murder case... Then how did the murderer kill Mr. Inokoshi and leave the room?"
