Conan's Beginning was Picked Up by Xiaolan

Chapter 56: End of the Mist Tengu Incident

When the two came up, the policeman was still here. After some interruption, Conan focused his attention on the wooden board below.

Xiao Cheng looked at Conan's expression and also came forward: "It's been a while since this was cut. It's hard to expect it to be like this in a short time."

"Xiaocheng, let's go down. Goodbye, uncle." Conan greeted Xiaocheng, and then said goodbye to the two police comrades.

Soon Erxiao arrived at the woods under the temple and started searching there.

"Conan, come here." Xiaocheng said to Conan while holding a piece of wood in his hand with tape behind it.

"Found it?" Conan trotted over.

"Hmm." Xiao Cheng had a proud look on his face. At the same time, he looked at a tree. There was someone behind the tree. Was it Xiunian?

And there was a sound of footsteps getting closer and closer to Conan and I. Who was this? Xiaocheng looked back and saw Xiaolan walking towards them angrily.

Xiao Cheng hid directly behind Conan: "Conan, take care of her."

Conan looked at the angry Xiaolan and asked, "What are you doing, Xiaocheng? How should I solve this problem?"

Xiaolan grabbed Conan by the collar and lifted him up. Xiaocheng grabbed the wooden board in his hand to avoid Xiaolan's ruthless grab and watched Conan being scolded like a grandson by Xiaolan.

That's so funny. Conan, listen to me. Go to Gotham and talk to a clown. Tell him to step down and you take his place.

Conan gave up after struggling for a while, and Xiaolan's voice kept nagging in Conan's ears for a long time.

Looking at Xiaocheng who was making faces at him, he almost lost his mind. Since they did the work together, shouldn't they share the blame?

Xiaocheng was looking at the scene in front of him, and heard the sound of footsteps again, which was getting farther and farther away. Did someone leave? Xiaocheng looked in the direction of the sound.

"You two are such a worry." Xiaolan looked at Erxiao helplessly. What if there really was a fog dog in this place and caught Erxiao?

Fortunately, Xiaolan was just thinking about it in her heart. If she said it out loud, Xiaocheng and Conan would probably laugh at her in their hearts.

As for why you don't smile in public? Do you want to get beaten?

When the three of them returned to the temple, they saw Inspector Megure was about to call up the team.

Just as Megure and Kogoro were discussing what to do with the car with a flat tire.

Megure said to leave it to him. Although Kogoro was unlucky, Kogoro had helped him solve many cases.

Just when Kogoro was about to hand the car keys to Megure, Conan stepped forward and snatched the keys away, then ran upstairs, where he planned to use an anesthetic needle.

But he didn't expect that the surface was too slippery. Kogoro slipped and fell in one step, hitting his head on the wooden railing. Xiaocheng, who had just come up, was shocked.

Conan also walked out from behind the wooden board at this time. He didn't expect that his uncle fainted by himself, which saved him the trouble of injecting anesthetic.

What happened next was very clear. Conan used the voice of Kogoro Mouri to begin telling the story of the case. The training room was very well sealed, and the murderer took advantage of this.

Where does the water come from when the skylight is poured in? Naturally, it comes from the waterfall, connected by wooden boards, so that the water from the waterfall can flow in.

When the room is filled with water, people can float up.

But the body would be soaked, so the murderer used a rubber boat. He heard from Kuannian that there were rubber boats in the temple.

Use an inflatable boat and wrap the body in plastic sheeting so it stays dry.

Next, use the tape to cover the gaps between the wooden boards, and then cover the gaps in the practice room.

Finally, a gap is smashed in the corner of the wall. Under the impact of the water flow, a big hole will naturally be directly washed out. This is the method used in this case.

Finally, Koshiro handed the broken wooden board to Inspector Megure as evidence. He then explained that in order to complete this technique, one had to be in the training room from midnight to six in the morning.

At this moment, Conan pointed his sword at Xiu Nian and said, "Master Xiu Nian, I remember you once said that you stayed in your room until three o'clock in the evening. If that's the case, you should have heard the sound."

"Around 2 o'clock last night, someone was frightened by the Tengu mask and screamed. Who was that person? Please answer."

Xiu Nian's heart gradually sank at this moment, but he still held on to this thought: "Of course I heard it, was it Miss Maori's scream?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the other three monks looked at Xiunian in disbelief.

It’s a pity that it wasn’t Xiaolan who screamed last night. Xiaocheng knew it was useless when he saw this.

Even without mentioning this, there are Xiunian's fingerprints on the tape on the wooden board in Megure's hand.

At this time, the three monks were surprised, but Xiunian had not come two years ago, so who accomplished the previous deeds?

Conan remembered his own judgment and the gap in the wooden board. He knew that the case two years ago was probably done by the abbot, and Xiu Nian and the dead Zhong Nian were probably brothers.

After Conan said that, Xiunian stopped struggling. The purpose of his coming here was to investigate his brother's death. After a year of investigation, he already knew the modus operandi.

But among the few people, he really didn't know who the murderer was, because no one wanted to talk about this matter. However, after they came yesterday, the abbot learned about the detective's reaction, which gave him some understanding.

Afterwards, he took wine to the abbot's room to drink. When the abbot got drunk, he asked him about the matter. Finally, the abbot admitted that the reason for killing Zhong Nian was very simple.

He just didn't want his granddaughter to abandon her engagement and give up being with the heir to the big temple and choose to be with Zhong Nian.

It was because Kikuno and Zhongnian had made an appointment to elope, and the abbot could not accept it at all.

In fact, when he finished speaking, Xiunian had no intention of killing anyone. He advised the abbot to surrender himself, but... the abbot said that it happened two years ago and no one would know about it.

That tone and that expression showed that he didn't care about his brother's life at all. Anger surged in his heart and he killed the abbot on impulse.

When he came back to his senses, he was out of ideas, so he repeated the last case using the same method, but... he was discovered.

"If you had visited this temple last time, I wouldn't be where I am today."

Tears welled up in Xiunian's eyes, and he felt fear and bitterness in his heart. He was not a brave person to begin with.

Xiao Cheng looked at him. It was karma and reincarnation. The abbot’s death was not unjust at all.

People asked you to surrender yourself, but you acted as if nothing happened. Two years have passed since the incident and there is basically no evidence.

If it were him, he would probably do the same. Looking at the crying Xiunian, he didn't know whether the other party had any regrets in her heart, but he knew that no one could blame the decision of the person in front of him.

Because in that kind of rage, who can say for sure that he won't kill someone? It's a pity for him...

The sun sets, and the fog dog appears? Perhaps it is just the outgrowth of human evil thoughts...
