Conan's Beginning was Picked Up by Xiaolan

Chapter 55: Mist Tengu Incident 3

"Ha... eh..." Xiaocheng yawned and looked sleepily at Conan and Kogoro who were also drowsy beside him.

What a sin! Xiaolan woke them all up in the middle of the night because she wanted to go to the bathroom and was a little scared.

Why don't you just call Conan? Conan is just a tool anyway.

At this time, Xiaocheng also heard Xiaolan's footsteps behind him. He was already very familiar with Xiaolan's footsteps.

While Kogoro was still complaining, Xiaolan suddenly put her head next to Kogoro.

"Uh...ah..." Kogoro cried out in shock, what the hell is that?

"What? Actually, you're scared to death too." Xiaolan looked at the frightened Kogoro, and a look of dissatisfaction suddenly appeared on her face.

Xiaocheng couldn't help laughing, looking at Conan who was also frightened, "Xiaolan, you come at me so suddenly that anyone would be frightened."

At this time, Kuan Nian heard the noise and hurried over to ask what happened.

"No, nothing really happened." Kogoro didn't know how to say it directly. Could it be that he was frightened by his daughter?

"Master Kuannian, you should go back and have a good rest." Xiaolan was also sweating and realized that her previous behavior was a bit willful.

The four of them returned to their room, leaving Kuan Nian confused as to what was going on.

The next morning, Xiunian came over and called everyone to have breakfast.

But at this moment Xiunian yawned and seemed to be very sleepy. Xiunian also gave an explanation that she had studied the scriptures until late at night.

When they arrived at the dining place, Mu Nian complained to Xiaogolang about his screaming last night, which made him not sleep well. Xiaogolang was sweating and looked a little embarrassed.

But Xiaolan found that the abbot and Kuannian seemed to be absent. At this moment, Kuannian screamed. Xiaocheng was stunned. Did something happen last night?

Then they ran to the practice room, and when they arrived they saw Kuan Nian lying on the ground with a look of fear on his face.

Xiao Cheng looked up and saw that, sure enough, Abbot Tianyong was hung there by someone.

The group first called the police. Conan was thinking beside them. Xiaocheng had nothing to do, so he stayed next to Conan.

He discovered that being around Conan actually had its advantages, which was that he didn't have to use his brain much.

Anyway, he believed that Conan could solve any case.

It was not until Officer Megure arrived and began routine questioning that he was a little overwhelmed the moment he saw Kogoro. This guy really kills people wherever he goes.

When they started questioning, they were led to a case two years ago, which was exactly the same as this incident, and it happened that Inspector Megure was also in charge of that case.

The dead person was a practicing monk named Zhongnian. The discoverers were Kuannian and Munian. They then recounted their experience of discovering the body two years ago.

Conan walked to the big hole in the corner of the wall. How was such a big hole formed?

"This wall panel is very strong. What's even more amazing is that there isn't much debris around it. Don't you think so, Conan?"

Xiao Cheng was also surprised. He wondered if he slept too soundly last night and didn't hear the sound of someone hitting the wall. But it shouldn't be that serious.

Also, if an ordinary person were to break down the wall, it would be impossible for him to do so in a short time.

Sure enough, according to Mu Nian, the person who came to repair the wall said that if an ordinary person were to destroy this kind of wall and make such a big hole, it would probably take a whole day.

"Conan, this wall shouldn't have been destroyed."

Xiaocheng leaned close to Conan's ear and said, Xiaocheng believed that if the wall was really smashed, the ears of this body would definitely be able to hear it.

Listening to Xiaocheng's words and what Mu Nian mentioned about Mist Tengu.

There was also a police comrade on the beam who said that there were no signs of dragging or fighting on the beam. Conan felt like he knew something.

At this time, Inspector Megure also decided to rule it as a suicide, just like he did two years ago.

Because the cases are exactly the same, Xiaocheng doesn't believe it at all. He has now discovered that as long as someone dies around Conan.

He just doesn't believe it was suicide. Again, the same words, ridiculous aborigines, do you understand Conan or do I? No one in this world knows Conan better than me.

At this moment, the conversation of several people was attracted by crying sounds. It turned out that the abbot's granddaughter Kikuno threw herself on his body and cried.

Megure seemed to have some impression of this girl. Two years ago, she was also the one who threw herself on Zhongnian and cried bitterly. She was really getting more and more the same.

At this moment, a bald man behind Kikuno patted her on the shoulder. Kikuno seemed unable to hold on and fell into his arms.

After Mu Nian's explanation, I learned that the man was the heir of a large temple. The two had just gotten married a few days ago, and they had been engaged a long time ago.

Mu Nian was still very surprised when he knew this, because he always thought that Kikuno would be with Zhong Nian. After all, the two of them had a very good relationship at that time.

It was also because of this that the police inferred that Zhong Nian committed suicide because of this incident.

While the few people were trying to determine whether the abbot committed suicide because of this incident, they decided to look for the suicide note, leaving Conan and Xiaocheng alone where they were.

"Xiaocheng, do you think it was really suicide?" Conan frowned.

"How is it possible? It's murder. I guarantee it, absolute murder." Xiaocheng looked very confident. Conan, you still don't know yourself well enough.

"Ah? Why?" Conan was frightened by Xiaocheng's appearance, thinking that Xiaocheng had found some key evidence.

"Uh...there's no why. Isn't this what you should be thinking about? Is he the famous detective or am I the famous detective?" Xiaocheng looked at Conan with contempt.

Conan is no longer able to fight Xiao Cheng, so you don't know, then you? Huh?

At this time, Xiunian walked over and looked at Erxiao. She found that the two of them were still exploring the cave. She felt a little uneasy, so she stepped forward to ask.

Conan said a few words casually, then walked forward to check Xiunian's arm, which was delicate and tender, and asked Xiunian if she heard any sounds of destruction or screams last night.

"No, I have nothing because last night was a quiet night." Xiunian said.

"Didn't hear anything?" Conan was stunned for a moment and continued to ask.

Xiao Cheng sighed and said, "You're done, brother. Everyone heard your uncle's call last night, but you didn't hear it. And you still said you studied the scriptures until very late last night?"

After that, Xiunian said a few simple words and was then called away by Tunnian who came over.

Conan looked at Xiu Nian who was leaving, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"Conan, do you want to go down and take a look?" Xiaocheng jumped onto the wooden railing and looked down at the waterfall. It seemed that it rained quite heavily yesterday.

"Xiaocheng, it seems like we two have the same idea." Conan smiled when he heard Xiaocheng's words.

Xiao Cheng glanced down and thought, since this hole cannot be broken by an ordinary person in a short time, what if it was not broken?

In addition, there is no debris at the scene, so it is very likely that it was washed away by water. But how did the water get in?

"Before we go down, let's take a look up there."

Conan did not choose to go down first. He wanted to go up to see how the water got in.
