I, Minami Kotori, Son of the Sun

Chapter 136: In the Name of Detective, I Swear

Back to the topic, the two children and the old couple who had just finished reminiscing about the past were now gathered in the hall of the villa.

The group sat around a round glass table and held a round table meeting.

Although the two children have become smaller in size, their intelligence is extraordinary. They are discussing the case enthusiastically.

"Ten years ago..." Conan couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If he had been born ten years earlier, he might have been able to catch this vicious murderer on the spot.

However, we cannot blame the Japanese police for their incompetence.

There were too few clues at the time, and due to the time constraints of the early 21st century, there was not so much surveillance.

DNA tracing technology is in its infancy and has only just begun to develop.

"Blood type A, seems to be of foreign mixed blood, has blonde hair, and is about twenty years old." This is almost all the information known.

"By the way, I also paid close attention to the police investigation at the time. It was said that the murderer was wearing a limited edition shoe that was only sold in Korea," Dad added.

"Limited edition? So, the murderer is still Korean?" Bai Li frowned, "In that case, it will be really difficult to solve the case..."

Conan also felt a little helpless: "In this case, the blonde hair mentioned earlier is also likely to be false information."

Koreans don't have naturally blonde hair. As a technological powerhouse with the most artificial beauties and handsome men, it's probably not easy to find someone who looks exactly like them nowadays.

The discussion was fruitless and we can only wait for the progress of Dr. Agasa's work.

"Doc! Have you found it?" The young detective, who knew nothing about electronic hacking, could only give orders with his mouth open.

He completely ignored Dr. Agasa's flustered and embarrassed appearance.

"Conan, please don't make things difficult for the doctor." For an outsider who wants to look through old files, the defense he has to break through must be very severe.

There was no expression on Xiaozou's face, but he must be very disappointed.

Bai Li also bit her lips. She had clearly promised to help her father and Xiao Zou find the murderer, but now...

"Anan, is there anything in the system mall that can be used to find the criminal? At worst, a prop that can travel through time will do." The system god, who has no concept of time, can only open his mouth to give orders to Black Starling.

"Correction! It's very difficult to travel through time. Your statement, Lord System God, is simply the opposite of what Tian Gang said." Anan first criticized the White-haired Loli God for speaking without thinking, and then answered Bai Li's question, "No, the system does not have the ability to solve cases."

After all, it is a system in charge of saving the world. Most of the abilities in the mall are related to fighting and killing, but there are plenty of abilities that can rule the world.

But to find a specific person from such a vast crowd is a bit inappropriate for this profession.

"The ability to travel through time is there, such as Decade's driver and ability, the ability inheritance of the mysterious four O, the Palagi bracelet, the Time Train Den-O Hellfire (Kamen Rider Den-O's train), etc."

Putting aside the invincible combat power that can destroy the sky, the earth, and the air in seconds, these abilities can enable one to travel through time and space.

"Uh, it's so expensive." Bai Li looked at the mall and twitched his lips. "Well, these are obviously things from the system mall. Shouldn't I, as the boss, set the price uniformly? I think 10 cents of points will be enough."

"..." Anan was silent for a moment, and gave an equally speechless answer, "Correction, you are now the boss's wife, not the boss."

“….” If you can’t set the price randomly, just say so directly. Why are you attacking her with your divine body?

"Even the cheapest train requires points." Bai Li smacked his lips. The little bird saved the world once, but only earned 5000 points.

This is simply out of reach.

"Or, I'll steal again..." Bai Li had a bold idea.

This is not the first time she has done embezzlement.

"Master System God, if you don't want to be captured by the God Realm again, I suggest you don't try it."

Bai Li nodded in fear. It was still too difficult to face that group of old guys.

"Additionally, the System God now has a physical body and may still suffer physical pain."

Physical suffering? Bai Li was stunned, recalling the last time he was captured in the God Realm.

As the god of the system, he relied on his intangible body and was only tortured by the devilish sounds of the gods, but he did not suffer any physical pain. If he went back now...

If the guys in heaven are all the same as that hairy angel, I'm afraid my treatment will be...

"That's terrible! Isn't this quite bad?" Bai Li blushed and gave up the idea of ​​taking the risk in horror.

The consequences are serious, really!

"Lord Bai Li, please have some tea." A gentle and intellectual voice sounded, bringing Bai Li back to the beautiful reality.

"That's great. It's great that the first person I see when I return to the human world is Miss Mingmei."

"No, no, it's all thanks to you." Miyano Akemi was flattered and waved her hands quickly.

"Hey, we're all family, don't be so polite." Bai Li said this, causing Dr. Agasa who was working hard to complain in his heart.

"This is obviously my home, it really is." Although, he was also happy to see the happy scene.

"Thank you, sister." Xiao Zou took the tea and nodded slightly to express her gratitude. Although her expression was indifferent, she was essentially a very polite and good child.

"It's black tea again." Xiaozou felt a little strange, because he also drank black tea at the bad angel's house just now.

Now we also drink black tea at Good Devil’s house.

Is black tea the premium beverage in both the heaven and the demon world?

Miyano Akemi smiled slightly, placed the pastries on the round table, and went to pour some coffee for the doctor.

Because of her status, she cannot go out casually now and is responsible for helping with housework at Dr. Agasa's house.

After the agreement with Kotori, he would occasionally come over and use the field of [Thousand Changes of Flowers] to accompany Miyano Akemi to go outside for some fresh air.

Of course, surfing the Internet is casual, and this is where the benefits of not using real names are reflected.

Conan was busy eating dessert, but he couldn't go to the scene to investigate, so it was still just talk and the case progressed very slowly.

. . .

Finally, things took a turn for the better, and the turning point was naturally the search results of Dr. Agasa.

The case files from that year were turned out by Dr. Agasa's genius hacking skills.

"It shouldn't leave any traces, right?"

"Don't worry, I'm a talented hibachiist!" Dr. Agasa laughed and patted his belly to assure.

"Hehe." Conan laughed twice expressionlessly, then grabbed the chair and started reading the files directly.

“First, the photos.”

Ten years later, the pictures of the crime scene are still clearly preserved in the electronic files.

This is a good thing for the investigation, but...

The dim light shone on the ground, and several scarlet and black tracks could be vaguely seen twisting forward on the ground.

That was blood, blood that had solidified and turned black.

From the bedrooms on the second floor, to the corridors, to the living room on the first floor, it's everywhere.

Looking closely, there are shocking blood stains on the ceiling.

Broken furniture was scattered all over the floor, the pieces stained with blood.

The originally snow-white wall was particularly eye-catching because of a few blurry bloody handprints.

The photos told them that the victim had struggled violently.

She died in agony.

This is no longer an ordinary murder, it is a massacre.

“Who is that person…” Conan’s hands were shaking as he clicked the mouse. Even he had never seen such a vicious criminal.

Criminals? Can such behavior really be called human?

"The murderer seems to be mentally ill." Although he was extremely angry in his heart, Conan still forced himself to stay calm and gave a description of the criminal that matched his initial impression.

The last picture is the appearance of the victim.

If it weren't for the markings above, it would be completely unrecognizable. It was originally a living person.

In the middle of the floor, a corpse was twisted and lying on the ground, with blood gushing out from the surrounding area, forming a shocking pool of blood. The deep red blood soaked the ground.

"There was a strong stench of decay and dozens of fatal stab wounds on the body. It is estimated that 15 of the stab wounds were inflicted after the victim's death."

Conan recited in a deep voice, and everyone present was silent.

“Dad…” Bai Li gently squeezed his father’s hand.

Those hands with bulging veins, trembling, anger, and helplessness.

"I, I'm fine." Dad tried to speak in a calm tone, "I will answer any questions you have, don't worry about me."

He has been enduring this torture for ten years. On every sleepless night, he would think of his pretty and lovely wife ten years ago and that nightmare-like day.

He's used to it.

Are you used to it?

"Dad, did your family have any enemies at that time?"

"No, I work away from home, and my wife is the only one at home taking care of Xiaozou. We have a good relationship with our neighbors and have never had any enemies."

Besides, what kind of deep hatred would make the murderer stab the person dozens of times to vent his anger after death?

It's really unimaginable.

"So, it can only be someone with mental problems?" Transnational criminals, mental disorders, a long time ago, and technological limitations.

Conan frowned. Even if he was at the crime scene, it would probably be difficult to solve the case.

The clues are too messy to be connected together.

"The forensic identification shows that the murder occurred at 2004 a.m. on July 7, 19. At 3 a.m. on the same day, there were signs of use of the computer in the victim's home. It is speculated that it was used by the murderer. The search keywords are..."

【time】

"Time?" Bai Li asked in confusion, "Do you want to type in the search bar to find out the time?"

"But in that case, the time bar in the lower right corner of the computer desktop would be enough. There's no need to do that." Conan retorted.

How could the criminal stay at home for so long after killing Xiaozou's mother?

Wait, if that's the case, why is Xiaozou still alive? If that's the case, it's possible that the murderer fled in a hurry and didn't have time to kill her...

"What exactly is going on?"

Time? It was as if time was out of order. What on earth was this prisoner doing?

The possibility of mental illness was overturned again. Can a mentally ill, murderous and bloodthirsty guy really use a computer?

[The bathroom also showed signs of being used, and it seemed that the perpetrator was able to calmly take a bath after killing the victim.]

Conan was almost unable to think. What was going on? Was this criminal suffering from schizophrenia?

The rare, omnipotent detective had no clue at this moment.

It's as unbelievable as a top student encountering a weird math problem that he can't solve.

"Xiao Zou..." Bai Li turned around, "Xiao Zou! How did you get in?"

Didn't I tell Sister Mingmei to keep an eye on her...

"Sorry, it's my fault." Miyano Akemi bowed and said.

But Xiaozou insisted on coming in, and Mingmei couldn't stop him.

She couldn't judge right from wrong. The Miyano sisters also lost their parents at a young age, so they could empathize with her even more.

She always wanted to take revenge on the organization and rescue her precious sister.

"Sister, I'm fine." Xiao Zou came over and gently squeezed Bai Li's hand.

"Then, can you recall what happened that day?" Conan said solemnly. The key to breaking the deadlock may lie with Xiaozou.

What did she witness that day? How to explain the prisoner's inconsistent and disjointed behavior?

What does "time" mean?

"Conan! You!" Bai Li was anxious. What she could say had already been told to her by Xiao Zou before. Now, it would only irritate Xiao Zou's wound!

"Looking at the photos, maybe I can remember something again." Xiao Zou gently hugged Bai Li.

My sister really cares about me.

Because of this, she couldn't back down any longer.

Conan pushed his glasses up. He felt Xiaozou's courage: "I swear, in the name of the famous detective, I will find the real murderer who killed your mother and bring him to justice."

This is his response.

Detectives should exist for this moment.
