Conan: About the fact that I have a black brother

"Well... may I ask what the reason is?" asked Uehara Yui.

Shui Yuechun lowered his head and continued drinking tea, changing the subject: "Officer, I am not in the mood to talk about this right now. After all, my daughter just passed away."

The two of them felt a little awkward, and then they saw Shui Yuechun stand up, as if he was going to see them off. They couldn't stay any longer, so they just got up and left.

The two then went to Shangtang's home. The Shangtang couple had gray hair and looked sad, as if they were deeply affected by their daughter's death.

The two walked into the house and saw Shangtang Sijia's portrait placed on the TV cabinet in the living room, and a strong smell of medicine hit them.

Mr. Shangtang explained: "It's grandma. She is seriously ill because of Sijia's matter. Please take care of her."

"No, no, please accept my condolences. We will find the murderer as soon as possible." Uehara Yui comforted.

"The murderer? Who else could it be except the girl who shared the dormitory with Jia Jia!" Mrs. Shangtang almost squeezed out the words through her teeth, "Who else could have done it except her! If it wasn't her, why is she the only one alive in the entire dormitory! Why doesn't she die! Why doesn't she die!"

"Madam Shangtang, please calm down. This matter has not yet been concluded."

Seeing his wife was very emotional, Mr. Shangtang quickly walked forward and gently patted her shoulder, trying to calm her down: "Xingzi, can you calm down first? Don't be so excited."

However, the wife did not appreciate it. She slapped her husband's hand away and said, "Shut up! You have never cared about our daughter's affairs, and now you have the nerve to say such sarcastic words!" Her eyes were full of anger and disappointment.

Then, the lady in charge turned her gaze to Lin Xiaochen. The anger in her eyes was not diminished at all. She glared at the two of them viciously and shouted sharply: "You salary thieves only know how to shield criminals! Have you been to their house first? That Qiuyue is exactly like her mother. On the surface, she looks like a decent person, but who knows how many dirty and filthy thoughts she has hidden behind the scenes! You must have been deceived by them!" Her tone was firm and resolute, as if she had a deep prejudice against Qiuyue and her daughter.

Facing the accusation from the lady in the hall, Lin Xiaochen's face turned a little ugly, but he still tried to remain calm, but his tone was particularly stiff. He responded: "Madam, please calm down first. We will naturally make an accurate judgment based on the facts. I hope you can control your emotions, otherwise, the record you made here may have a negative impact on our investigation."

Although his words were polite, the implicit warning in them could not be ignored.

Mr. Sh pulled his wife aside and said, "Alright! Stop making trouble! You also want to find the murderer as soon as possible and seek justice for your daughter, right?"

Mrs. Shangtang suddenly covered her face and started to cry. Mr. Shangtang pulled her back to the sofa and nodded to the police: "Thank you for your hard work, officers. Let's sit down and talk."

"We also learned before that Miss Shangtang and Miss Qiuyue had a dormitory conflict. Do you two know what it is specifically about?"

"Sijia said before that Qiuyue seemed to have a lot of grievances against her and always interrupted her when she was communicating with her classmates. I don't know much else."

"Humph, that Qiuyue is simply a shrew, full of swear words, and I can't even understand what she's saying. I don't know how much grievance Jiajia has suffered during this period of time. It's just a chat with classmates, it's ok for her to be isolated, but she doesn't allow others to chat. She deserves to be isolated!"

Lin Xiaochen tightly grasped the pen in his hand, frowning, with a hint of anger in his eyes. He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and then continued to ask: "Okay, then does this happen every time? Does Qiuyue interrupt your daughter's conversation with her classmates?"

"I don't know. But Jia Jia has complained to us many times."

Lin Xiaochen nodded to show that he understood.

He paused, then asked, "Okay, in addition to this disagreement, do you know of any other problems? For example, work and rest time, living habits, etc."

The lady was silent for a moment, as if thinking about something, but finally shook her head and whispered, "Not sure..."

Lin Xiaochen frowned slightly, thought for a while, and changed the subject: "So, what do you know about Miss Shangtang's social circle? Does she have any close friends?"

"Hmm..." Madam Shangtang thought for a moment and replied, "There should be quite a few. They often play games online together."

Hearing this, Lin Xiaochen's heart moved, and he continued to ask: "Then do you know if Miss Shangtang has a boyfriend?"

"What? Boyfriend?" Mrs. Shangtang's voice was like a thunder, suddenly exploding in the air, high-pitched and sharp. Her eyes were wide open, and her face was full of disbelief.

"You don't know?" Lin Xiaochen asked in pretended surprise, muttering to himself: Could it be that the lady on the throne really knows nothing about her daughter's love life?

"I don't know. She never mentioned it to me." Mrs. Shangtang frowned tightly, with a hint of dissatisfaction and worry in her tone. "How long have they been dating?"

Lin Xiaochen hesitated for a moment and answered vaguely: "Well... the time is not too long, nor too short."

Then, Lin Xiaochen quickly changed the subject, trying to ease the atmosphere, "Oh, by the way, does Miss Shangtang have any hobbies? For example, makeup, traveling, or musical instruments?"

"She really likes to put on makeup. She often paints herself in fancy colors and talks about co cosplay. I don't understand what that is." Mrs. Shangtang shook her head helplessly. "As for the rest, she just likes playing games."

Lin Xiaochen nodded silently, thinking: It turns out that Miss Shangtang is also a fan of the second dimension, which is quite unexpected for him. However, this is also good, and he can start from these aspects in the future.

"Okay, we understand."

"Later, my colleagues may come to understand the situation. I hope you two will cooperate with me." Seeing that he had asked almost all the questions, Lin Xiaochen stood up to leave, but he heard the sound of ping-pong coming from the inner room.

As the door was pushed open, an old man with white hair walked out, crying and complaining: "Officer, you must do something for my poor granddaughter. She is so young, she is just a child... You must not let the murderer escape..."

Lin Xiaochen hadn't seen this kind of situation for a long time, and for a moment he was a little overwhelmed. Uehara Yui was much more experienced than him, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, grandma, we will never let any bad guy go. Just rest assured and take care of your health and wait for news."
