Conan and I start the hell-level main line

Chapter 63: Natsume Star's long-silent Death Halo

In a dark space, a man dressed in black stood in the center of the darkness.

At this moment, a blue light appeared in front of the man, and a huge electronic screen appeared in front of him.

Lines of garbled code appeared on the electronic screen, with strange and disorganized characters running around everywhere, and a mechanical voice sounded.

"Hennessy, did you receive the message from Disano?"

"Received, Boss"

"Okay, apart from the decision-making group, you are the one I trust the most in the entire organization. So the next phase of the organization's plan will be handed over to you."

"I will do my best to live up to your trust."

"Di Sano said that the thing has been found. Those people should notice it soon. You have to get it before they find out!"

"Yes, sir!" A dark light flashed in Hennessy's hollow dark circles.

……

"Mr. Hennessy, are you looking for me?" Fu Huashi came to Hennessy's lounge.

Hennessy watched Yoko Okino's performance as usual, cheering excitedly like a pervert.

Fu Hua Shi(?_?): This guy can really compete with Maori Kogoro.

"Fu Huashi, you're here. Come, come, I need your help with something~"

"I don't want to order Yoko Okino merchandise anymore."

"No, it's a serious matter."

"I am no longer a member of the comprehensive team. There is no need to push the task to me. If you want to give it to me, give it to Black Russia." (Black Russia: Thank you.)

"Weren't you very interested in the organization before? Do you want to know the secrets of the organization?" Hennessy said with a smirk.

"What!" Fu Huashi became serious. Of course he wanted to know the truth about this organization surrounded by layers of mysteries. This was his obsession as a die-hard fan not only in his past life but also in this life.

"Help me get something."

"what?"

"Hey, a mask..."

……

"Natsume boy, today is your first internship as a detective authorized by me, Maori Kogoro. Take a good look at how I, the famous detective Maori Kogoro, work."

"Okay, Mr. Maori."

In the antique collector's house, Conan and Xiaolan, who check in every day, are watching the jumping fish in the garden; Maori Kogoro and Natsume Hoshi are discussing the investigation of an affair with the head of the family, Marudenjiro.

"There's no doubt about it. Your wife is currently having an affair." Kogoro Mouri handed him a photo.

"Please look at the woman in the photo. There is a mole on her face. That woman is your wife, Ms. Maru Ineko."

Marudenjiro clutched the photo tightly, his expression grim and he looked dead.

Natsume Hoshi: Uncle, you have to be strong!

"So, who is this man next to you?"

"It's not clear yet, I'm still investigating." Natsume Xing replied.

Ding Dong~ Marudenjiro looked in the direction of the door, suppressed his anger, and said, "Excuse me, I'll ask the guests to go to the reception room for a while, I'll be back soon."

Well, he's never coming back.

Kogoro Mouri was waiting boredly while Natsume Hoshi was observing the house. He knew very well why he came here.

……

"Mask? What the hell is that?" Fu Huashi asked Hennessy curiously. The organization actually wanted a mask? Was the organization going to hold a stage show?

"Go to Marudenjiro's house. He bought a white Noh mask at an auction a few years ago. What you need to do is bring that Noh mask back."

"What's so special about that mask?"

"I'll tell you when I get it back."

"He's an antique collector. How can I get it? Should I buy it from him? How much funding does the organization give?"

"0 yen, figure it out yourself." Hennessy ignored him and continued chasing stars.

"Forehead---"

……

"Nice noodles, nice noodles, do I have to steal them?" Natsume Xing looked out the window and thought. The confused Kogoro beside him fell asleep while waiting.

"Ah!!!" At this time, a scream resounded through the sky.

Conan, Xiaolan, Natsume Hoshi and Maori Kogoro, who had just taken a nap, rushed over without hesitation as if they had received a signal about the case.

But when they came to the screaming point, Natsume saw an unforgettable scene, as if he saw a ghost.

In the pile of grass in the yard was a dead person. It was not the originally assumed deceased Marudenjiro, but... his wife Maru Ineko.

What happened?! Why was she the one who died?

"Natsume-san, it's bad. Mr. Maru was also killed in the reception room."

what? ! ! !

Why is it different from the original? Two people died. Wait, Conan and Marudenjiro died. I am also a detective. Could it be... Could it be...

I also have the Death Halo, so Maru Ineko is dead too. . Just like the last time Yoko Okino performed at the concert. .

No way, is the detective profession so poisonous?

Not long after, Inspector Megure, the 24-hour duty expert of the Metropolitan Police Department, arrived and cordoned off the scene.

"The deceased are the owner of this house, Mr. Marudenjiro, and his wife, Ms. Maru Inako."

"Mr. Maru was murdered in the reception room. The murder weapon was a samurai sword that went straight through his heart. Mrs. Maru also died of a knife wound, the same as Mr. Maru, but she fell in the bushes not far from the reception room."

Inspector Megure looked at the messy reception room. Knife marks were all over every corner of the room. It was very creepy to look at.

Conan carefully examined the bodies of the two. Maru Ineko's fatal wound was the knife wound on her chest that almost cut her body off.

The knife wound is so deep. And the way Marudenjiro died is also very strange. It seems that he was holding the knife in his hand in the wrong way.

"Brother Natsume, did you find anything?" Conan looked at Natsume Hoshi who was squatting beside the body analyzing it.

Natsume Hoshi is extremely nervous now. Things are different from the original now. If it can be confirmed that Marudenjiro was killed by Suwa Yuji, then who killed Maru Ineko?

"Ah, I don't know yet." Natsume Xing came back to his senses and shook his head.

The classic three-choice suspect has arrived. The suspects line up consciously and tell each of you what happened at the time of the crime.

Let’s meet suspect number one - Hatano Jiya, who was the extramarital affair partner of the deceased’s wife Maru Ineko. According to Hatano, they were out having fun the whole afternoon today and had no time to kill anyone.

Please welcome suspect number two - Suwa Yuji. He is a well-known kendo master. He borrowed some money from the deceased for working capital some time ago, and came today to repay the money as agreed.

Let’s meet the third suspect, Makoto Akutsu. As a sculptor, he was short of money, so he borrowed some money from the deceased. However, his business has been very bad recently, so he is temporarily unable to repay the debt. He hopes to be given a few days’ grace period.

OK, the three suspects have finished their statements. Please vote for the suspect. (Star Detective Mode)

"Natsume-san, you've also noticed that the reception room is full of knife marks, but the dragon that Akujin Cheng cares about the most is unharmed."

Natsume observed for a moment and said, "Well, the sculpture was not damaged, which is very strange. It feels a bit deliberate. And you also noticed that the telephone recorder is obviously abnormal. Mr. Suwa is very likely the murderer."

"That's right, so he is indeed the murderer of Mr. Maru, but who was the murderer of Mrs. Maru?" Conan touched his chin and thought.

"It is very likely that it was Mr. Suwa. After all, the body was located next to the reception room. It is possible that Mrs. Maru happened to witness the murder when she came back and was killed to silence her."

"It's certainly possible."

Inspector Megure was still in a state of panic. At this moment, Natsume suddenly said, "I already know who the murderer is."

"What, Brother Natsume, you know who the murderer is?" Inspector Megure looked over in surprise.

"That's right, the murderer is you, Mr. Suwa!" Natsume Hoshi imitated Conan's signature move and pointed at Suwa Yuji.

"Hey, kid, what are you talking about? If the murderer is Mr. Suwa, he would not have made the mistake of holding the knife upside down when killing Mr. Maru." Kogoro Mori taught him a lesson. A kid is a kid, he really doesn't learn seriously.

"No, Mr. Mori, Suwa did this on purpose, just like Mr. Akutsu's dragon statue is intact, it was all done on purpose to eliminate suspicion from himself."

"Inspector Megure, please do as I say and rearrange the drawers of the cabinet. First..."

Inspector Megure did as he was told, and finally, the knife marks on the cabinet revealed the hidden code, "Suwa"

Now that the evidence is irrefutable, Suwa Yuji smiled self-deprecatingly. There was no need to quibble anymore. He admitted that it was because Marudenjiro had sold the family heirloom sword Kikuchiyo that he had mortgaged. When he learned the truth, he was furious and killed him with a single blow.

Conan was very happy to see Natsume Hoshi's wonderful reasoning. Brother Natsume is really amazing.

Instead, Kogoro Mori curled his lips and nodded in praise with disdain.

But what Suwa Yuji said next shocked everyone present, "I admit that I did kill Mr. Maru, but I didn't kill Mrs. Maru!"
