I, Minami Kotori, Son of the Sun
Chapter 139 Chasing the Truth
"Master, welcome!" The maid bowed and was about to give the guests a sweet business smile, but she found that one of the visitors was an old friend. "Oh, it's Bai Xiaomei! Are you finally here for work today?"
So happy to meet my lovely colleagues!
"Shut, shut up! I'm not going to work today! What are you talking about!" Bai Li hurriedly stepped forward and covered the maid's mouth with his little hand, while chanting in a low voice at a high speed.
Don't ask, although she is not tall now, she can still touch the maid who bends over.
Unfortunately, the speed of sound propagation is 340 meters per second, and Conan heard every word of the conversation between the two.
"Hey, what do you mean by work?" Conan smiled evilly and nudged Bai Li's shoulder with his arm, "You don't mean to receive customers dressed like this, do you?"
Bai Li's face flushed, and when she was about to say something in rebuttal, someone spoke up for her.
"You little brat! So rude! What do you mean by entertaining guests? Do you want to taste the iron fist of this beautiful girl?" The maid showed her little fist gracefully, "Little sister Bai, your friend?"
"Not familiar!" Bai Li crossed his arms.
Seeing the shadow on his head getting bigger and bigger, Conan was frightened and gritted his teeth: "I'm sorry, sister, you are the most beautiful."
The famous detective used a trick that was his specialty - it was called pretending to be a child and being cute.
. . .
"Really? Dad, go cook me two more dishes!" Bai Li spoke without hesitation, obviously not considering himself an outsider.
"What? You are still my employee here. It's okay if you skip work every day. I still get your salary, and you are still not satisfied!" Dad also has a temper.
Originally, I had dragged these two kids to eat because I saw how much effort they put into my affairs. "Anyway, these dishes are good enough. Eat them if you want!"
"Who told your good employee to expose my identity?" Bai Li slapped the table. His good brother knew that he was working in a maid shop. How do you feel?
It's such a shameful play!
"That maid is so violent." Conan also said, he holds a grudge!
He was obviously a harmless kid who was just joking, but he almost got punched on the head again.
Why are the girls around me so violent? Sister Xiaoniao and Lan are fine...
Nowadays, any maid you meet will be so martial.
“…..I understand, you two little brats, eat slowly, otherwise you won’t be able to finish the food I’ve prepared.” Dad sighed, “Good kids, don’t waste food, understand?”
"I know." They said in unison, stretching out their voices like real kids.
"Really? The two little brats who were teasing each other just now are now united again." Dad smiled helplessly and rolled up his sleeves, "It's time to show off my specialty."
Looking at their father's departing back, Conan and Bai Li looked at each other and read a tacit understanding in each other's eyes.
"Let's unify the existing evidence." Bai Li took a sip of water and cleared his throat.
"Oh, I thought you were going to explain why you work in a maid shop first." Conan looked teasingly.
"Stop it!" Bai Li blushed and patted the table. "Dad cooks very quickly, we need to finish sorting it out as soon as possible."
"I understand." Conan got back to the point.
"First, there's the red sports car."
[Red sports car], this is one of the things Xiaozou recalled after watching the pictures from the scene.
It was said to have been seen near the scene, so it was suspected to be the suspect's means of transportation.
So, with the help of Dr. Agasa, they searched for red sports car models from ten years ago and counted the owners of the households at that time.
All of them were wealthy people. After all, in that era, it was not an ordinary family that could afford a two-door sports car.
"But there is basically no motive for committing the crime." Bai Li sighed.
"Well, I also tend to think that this clue may not be useful."
It is a bit too abstract for a mentally ill criminal to commit crimes in a sports car.
"Second, a tall man."
[Tall Man], Xiaozou once had an impression of a tall man. As far as he can remember, his height was probably about 1.8 meters or even 1.9 meters.
"But the criminal's profile should be between 1.65 and 1.75 meters tall." Bai Li scratched his head, "Isn't that the criminal?"
"If there was an eyewitness, there would be no way he didn't report it. For such a heinous case, any person with a conscience would report it to the police." Conan explained his thoughts.
"What if there is no conscience?" Bai Li asked back.
Conan was silent: "Then, let's assume that this man may be an accomplice. There are two criminals, and the tall man is here to pick them up."
"Then here comes the last clue, which is also the most incredible one." Bai Li continued, "Hey, do you remember when the forensic examination found the death?"
"Three o'clock in the morning of that day."
"Yes, but..."
"Xiao Zou said she saw her mother. The sun was shining brightly at that time, probably around noon." Conan finished, "Bai Li, I know I may be offensive, but can Xiao Zou's words really be used as a reference?"
There are too many inconsistencies, and none of them make sense.
"It is very likely that it is because it has been too long and the memory is distorted. Xiaozou has traumatic amnesia, so there is no guarantee..."
"But, we have no choice but to believe it, right?" Bai Li clenched his fists, "I have already promised her that I must find the murderer."
"Detective, do you want to give up too?"
"NO, I have not……"
"Then help me find the murderer! Great detective!" Bai Li shouted, "Didn't you say you would help her?"
Conan was silent. He looked at the trembling girl quietly: "I have already sworn to her, so I will keep trying to do it."
"But, Baili, don't you think you've been too tense?"
"What?" Bai Li was stunned.
"Xiao Zou doesn't want you to do this either. Solving a case takes time. If you are eager to find the truth, you will often be kept in the dark." Conan said calmly, "I have a hunch that there will always be an opportunity to make all the truth come to light."
In the near future.
Bai Li now looks just like himself who had just been shrunk by the Black Organization, with his mind full of revenge and finding out the truth.
"Paying attention only to the future and neglecting the present will not only hurt yourself, but also those around you." After Conan finished speaking, he was stunned. This was actually something he could say.
If it were in the past, he might have been even more reckless than Bai Li.
He has already tasted the price of wanting to reveal the truth in advance - that is this shrunken body.
"Relax a little, Bai Li," Conan advised.
"I understand, thank you." After a moment's silence, Bai Li nodded slowly.
She was indeed a little extreme. As Conan said, if a ten-year unsolved case could be solved overnight, the Japanese police would be real clowns.
Even Conan needs time.
If you are obsessed with revenge and ignore the feelings of those around you, you are putting the cart before the horse.
"Dad is truly a great father." Bai Li sighed.
It also takes great courage to hide the desire for revenge.
When Conan heard this, he knew that Bai Li had listened to him and smiled with relief.
As expected, what kind of god is this? She is just a weird and childish girl just like her appearance.
"My dear son, I really appreciate your concern for your father."
Conan twitched his lips and took back what he had just said: "Bai Li, you tm..."
"What? Don't get carried away just because I said a few words of truth! Your father is still your father!" Bai Li regained his former vitality.
Conan surprisingly did not refute.
"What are you doing? Are you going to say something?" Being stared at by Conan like that, Bai Li blushed slightly.
However, smiling and being funny are more suitable for you, Bai Li.
