Conan: The truth lies only within the range of fire

Seeing the very bright mineral water bottle in Conan's hand, Feng Jianyuya asked in confusion: "What's going on?"

Toru Amuro explained: "This is the Tyndall effect. Simply put, it is a physical phenomenon caused by the characteristics of light. Milk particles are dispersed in water. When light enters the solution, it is scattered, making it appear brighter."

"I see!" Yuya Kazami looked at Mr. Kobayashi and exclaimed, "I didn't expect that elementary schools are now teaching such difficult knowledge. When I was in elementary school, I was still learning simple addition and arithmetic."

Teacher Xiaolin was also confused. Did the school teach the Tyndall phenomenon? It seems... not?

Conan observed the papers scattered on the ground: "The contents of these papers are all some information about meteorites."

Conan's eyes suddenly narrowed: "A yellow highlighter that was stepped on?"

Huiyuan Ai asked: "Is there anything wrong with this highlighter?"

Conan nodded and replied, "On the left hand of the body in the basement, there were traces of pink, blue and yellow fluorescent pens, but the only fluorescent pen in his chest pocket was not yellow.

There are also many shoe prints on the materials on the ground, which look like hiking shoe prints. I remember that the three people seemed to be wearing hiking shoes..."

Huiyuan Ai asked: "In other words, the murderer is one of those three people?"

Conan shook his head and replied, "The body in the basement committed suicide, so the footprints here could have been from one of the three people we met on the bus, who sneaked in here to get information about the meteorite."

Huihara Ai noticed the floor: "The tiles on the floor seem to have been hit by something. They are dented. What was used to hit them?"

Yuan Tai, who was acting as a lamp post and shining his watch on the mineral water bottle, looked at a stone under the table: "Could it be that thing? There is a very strange stone under the table."

Wakasa Rumi also picked up a stone: "There is also a strange stone here."

Wakasa Rumi put the two stones together to form a complete stone.

Ayumi was very supportive and said, "Wow, these two stones can actually be put together!"

Huiyuan Ai said confidently: "It seems that this stone was smashed into two pieces by someone on the ground."

Mitsuhiko looked at the stone in Wakasa Rumi's hand curiously and asked, "Is this stone a meteorite? It looks a bit like one!"

Teacher Kobayashi wondered, "If it was a meteorite, why did they smash it open?"

Conan looked at Huibara Ai and asked, "Huibara, do you have a magnet with you?"

"Yes, I have a compass with me."

Haibara Ai took out the compass she was carrying with her.

Conan took the compass from Haibara Ai and approached the stone in Wakasa Rumi's hand.

Conan returned the compass to Huihara Ai: "There is no reaction. In this case, this stone should not be a meteorite. Magnets usually react to meteorites."

Ayumi suddenly realized: "No wonder, that's why those three people are holding magnets!"

Mitsuhiko asked in confusion, "Hey, did you see they brought Ayumi?"

Ayumi said with certainty: "Yes! When I got off the bus, I saw that the magnets hanging on the backpacks of the three people were attracted together!"

Wakasa Rumi observed the stone in her hand and reminded: "Look carefully, this stone seems to have faded a little!"

Huihara Ai leaned over to take a look and said, "It seems that someone has painted this stone and faked it into a meteorite."

"But who would do that?"

"I think it's probably the ranch owner. He seems to be very short of money and has to close the ranch."

Ai Huihara guessed that it might be a meteorite forged by the rancher.

Yuan Tai saw a pile of magnets on a table: "There are so many magnets on this table! Aren't fake meteorites reactive to magnets? Then why are there so many magnets here?"

Feng Jianyu also guessed: "Could it be that the real meteorite has been replaced by someone, and the rancher accidentally picked up the meteorite, and then asked an expert to help identify its value, but when the other party sent the stone back, he said it was an ordinary stone. The rancher didn't believe it, and he tried his best to argue that this was impossible, but the other party ignored him.

It was probably at that time that the highlighter fell to the ground and was stepped on and broken. Then, after carefully examining the meteorite that was sent back, he found that it was actually a piece of colored stone. He finally realized that he had been deceived and committed suicide in despair. "

Amuro Toru looked at Kazami Yuya: "Tobita, your reasoning..."

Feng Jianyuya laughed dryly and said, "I just said it casually, sorry."

Amuro Toru said seriously: "I think you are right."

Conan also agreed: "I think so too! There is a toilet in the basement, and you have been locked in the basement for so long, but you didn't ask us for water and food, so there must be some supplies here, right?"

Yuya Kazami replied, "Yes, there is bread and water."

Conan concluded: "That is to say, the person who locked us up here doesn't want to kill us."

Feng Jianyu was also puzzled and asked: "If that's the case, why did he lock us up?"

Conan said in a deep voice: "He doesn't want us to get in his way, because he wants to seek revenge on the liar who pushed his brother to death!"

Kamiya Minatsuki looked at Amuro Toru with some depression, and then looked at Wakasa Rumi.

Because there are too many people, is it difficult to take action against Wakasa Rumi?

Or maybe that shogi piece isn't that important to Wakasa Rumi.

No, it should still be important. After all, when she learned that the shogi chess piece was lost, Wakasa Rumi's expression of fear, anger, and self-blame could not be fake.

His acting skills in throwing the phone into the bucket and breaking the window glass when he fell down were pretty average. There's no reason why his acting skills in throwing a chess piece would suddenly be so good.

Moreover, not many people paid attention to her at that time, so there was no need for Wakasa Rumi to show off her acting skills.

There were probably too many people and I didn't have a chance to do it.

Then we have to create an opportunity for Wakasa Rumi later~

Everyone was surprised to hear Conan say that Hatoyama Kaisuke wanted to avenge his brother on that liar.

Mitsuhiko immediately asked Conan: "You mean revenge? How is he going to do it?"

Teacher Kobayashi said worriedly, "Didn't he just say that he stole a lot of explosives? Could it be that he wanted to use the bombs to..."

Ayumi suddenly exclaimed, "I remember now! That place with a lot of burnt branches, there were a lot of thin, long stick-like things tied to the surrounding tree trunks!"

Conan's expression suddenly changed. The long, thin stick-like thing that Ayumi mentioned was most likely explosives!
