"Conan, you said that the Shadow Mage had already killed the Escape King before coming here?"

Several people outside gathered in Conan's room.

"Yes, isn't the last name of the escaped king Xishan? The radio said that he was murdered in his apartment, and there was a message on the computer desk next to Mr. Xishan."

"This is the first person - Shadow Mage."

Conan kept his hands on the bed frame, obviously still a little exhausted.

The expressions of the others who heard Conan's words also froze.

"So just now... the attack on Suzuki and Tanaka was done by the Shadow Mage?" Kuroda Naoko frowned, "He wanted to kill us all, but why?"

"I remember that not long ago, Shadow Master had a quarrel with Escape King and the others in the group because of Harui Fufu." Tanaka Takahirae touched his chin with an uncertain expression, "Could it be that he is holding a grudge against me because of this incident?"

"It's unlikely, right? Just because of a quarrel..." Huang Yi widened his eyes in disbelief.

"It's hard to say." Yin Jiu followed the back of the crowd and shook his head, "If the other party has a deep relationship with Mr. Chunjing Fengfu, he might have such thoughts."

"That's right. At that time, Shadow Mage said in the group that Master Chunjing Feng was killed by everyone."

Several people talked at once and reconstructed the quarrel at that time.

"Anyway, the enemy is in the open and we are in the dark. Maybe the Shadow Mage is still outside waiting for an opportunity to strike. Next, we should not disperse." Huang Yi thought for a while and came up with a solution. "Since the police have noticed it, we just need to wait for rescue here. We should be fine tomorrow morning. After all, the Shadow Mage is outside. As long as we don't disperse, he can't rush in and kill so many of us."

No, that's not right. The Shadow Mage can also hide among these people!

Conan listened to the descriptions of the crime by several people and checked the suspects in his mind.

Judging from the time when these people were divided into different groups, Mao Lilan, Sonoko and Araki can be completely ruled out, and the remaining people were assigned to work in different places.

And according to the location, the only people who can kill Hamano Arashi in a short time are... Doi Takeshu and Yin Jiu? !

Conan's heart trembled suddenly, and then an arc of electricity flashed through his mind.

By the way, Yin Jiu just directly mentioned that the quarrel was because of Chun Jing Feng Fu.

How did he know?

Also... Conan remembered that Yin Jiu seemed to be a student of Chun Jingfengfu, which made perfect sense from the perspective of the motive for the crime.

No... That's not right.

Conan was shocked but quickly denied his idea. Yin Jiu's health was too poor. Even if he used tools to transport the body, it would be a very difficult task for him.

Moreover, the deceased, Binye, was an adult male who was able to crush Yin Jiu in terms of strength, so it would be quite difficult to kill him.

Conan thought about it, then he pulled the hem of Doi Takeshu's clothes, acted like a spoiled child and said in a cute voice, "Brother Doi, I want to go to the bathroom, can you come with me?"

Doi Takeshu: “…” He felt that this voice would not bring good news.

Kuroba Kaito resigned himself to his fate and walked out with Conan by the hand, lowering his head. The elementary school student looked at him with scrutiny and vigilance.

"...You don't think I'm the murderer, do you?" Doi Takeshu suddenly had an idea and this thought popped into his mind.

“..?” Not you?

Conan, who was about to speak to test the waters, paused for a moment. "The only person who can fly here is Kaito Kidd. Isn't it right for me to suspect you first?"

Although Kaito Kid has never had a record of killing people, the character of this international criminal is always hard to predict.

Conan secretly opened the anesthetic needle watch vigilantly, "You are the one who told Yin Jiu the content of the group chat, right? If you didn't plan to commit the crime in advance and frame Yin Jiu, why did you take the initiative to give him the chat information in the group?"

"..." Kuroba Kaito was completely speechless. To say that this kid was slow was to say that people saw through his identity as a phantom thief at a glance, but to say that he was smart was to say, "Why don't you doubt Yin Jiu? His motives are much more reliable than mine."

"Yin Jiu... he is not in good health, and he was with me the whole time when the crime happened. If he only used the time when I had a brief blackout or went out to change the ice bucket to commit the crime, his physical condition would definitely not be able to complete it..." Conan subconsciously thought seriously and gave a negative answer, "And Yin Jiu just became my disciple. From an emotional point of view, he probably wouldn't want to kill someone to avenge his teacher just because of a few quarrels. His personality is far from being so extreme."

Kuroba Kaito: “…” Do you want to listen to what you are saying?

Kuroba Kaito really wanted to pull Yin Jiu, who appeared to be a vampire, in front of Conan and let him take a closer look at what kind of terrible monster this was.

The cunning vampire must have deceived many people with his weak personality!

"What you said makes sense." Doi Takeshu gritted his teeth and swallowed his anger, forcing himself to resist the urge to say something that would send the damn vampire to jail. He slowly and reluctantly explained, "But unfortunately, I'm not a prisoner either. So let's go back quickly, or you'll catch a cold again."

Kuroba Kaito urged to send away the lamb that had been bewitched by the vampire, but Conan just stood there in a daze.

"freeze..."

Hamano fell in the snow, and the time when the body was found cannot be confirmed to be the time of the crime. . . In other words, the body was frozen in the snow during this period of time.

"How long was it between the time Hamano left for the last time and the time you found his body?" Conan suddenly looked down at his watch.

"Between 8 and 9 o'clock." Kuroba Kaito wanted only to send Conan back, so he gave the answer without thinking.

"Sure enough..." Conan fell silent, thoughtfully.

"What are you two doing here?" Yin Jiu's voice suddenly appeared behind them, and Mao Lilan and Yuan Zi followed them. "You two have been out for too long. Don't get separated from the crowd when it's dangerous like this."

"Sister Xiaolan!" Conan ran back to the high school girl with his little legs, and then he looked up curiously, "When Miss Tanaka was attacked, was it because the window was broken and then the arrow appeared?"

"That's right. Conan, what are you thinking about? If an arrow enters the room, it will definitely break the glass first."

"Then did you see the trajectory of the arrow? Or when Sonoko-sama was attacked, did you see which direction the arrow came from?"

"No, I heard the sound of glass breaking and was so scared that I squatted down. Then I looked up and saw that the glass in the toilet was shattered by the arrow."

"I see..." Conan fell silent again.

"Okay, let's not stay outside any longer, let's go back." Yin Jiu's eyelashes drooped, Conan was reflected in his eyes. He had tried his best to blur the time of the crime and prevent the other party from getting involved. Unexpectedly, in just a few minutes, Conan had guessed it almost exactly like in the anime.

As expected of Kudo Shinichi, he can deduce the result with just a little hint.

Yin Jiu blinked to hide all his emotions in his eyes, then turned his gaze to Doi Takeshu who was following behind.

Kuroba Kaito: “…?” Blame me again?
