"So, did the teacher want to investigate the fire at the beginning?"

Tanjiro paused slightly, "But, if you want to investigate now, it will be very difficult, right?"

After all, nearly ten years have passed.

Tanjiro doesn't know much about modern investigative technology, but if it's in his time...

It will probably be completely impossible to start.

"Well, it will indeed be a little difficult." Gojo Satoru rubbed his chin and nodded.

"But if what Tiannei said is true, then Jie disappeared after the fire."

Among them, there must be a connection.

As for the possibility of Xia Youjie's death in the fire, Gojo Satoru didn't take it into consideration at all.

This is a kind of intuition, but also a kind of trust.

Trust in Xia Youjie's strength.

I believe that such a fire will never devour the lives of friends.

"Indeed." Tanjiro nodded.

"Then where does the teacher want to start the investigation?"

Tanjiro · good student raised his hand to ask a question.

"It feels like it's going to be a very difficult thing."

"Huh?" But hearing Tanjirou's words, Gojo Satoru raised his head in surprise.

"No, who said we're going to investigate?"

Gojo Satoru asked back quite naturally, as if he was genuinely puzzled and unbelievable by Tanjiro's words just now.

"Eh?" Tanjiro's hands were frozen in mid-air.

Now it was his turn to be confused.

"But we're not investigating fires..."

Tanjiro's mind was a little knotted, he really couldn't keep up with Gojo Satoru's brain circuits.

Obviously Gojo Satoru said to investigate, but now he tells him that they don't need to investigate?

Tanjiro was about to be stunned by the tongue-twister-like logic.

"Yes, it is indeed necessary to investigate."

However, Gojo Satoru didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said.

"But we're not going to investigate."

He bit the word 'we' emphatically.

Seeing that Tanjiro was still confused, and seemed unable to understand what he meant, the white-haired conjurer sighed slightly.

This child is a little too naive.

"Isn't there that Kansai high school student detective here?"

The five points of enlightenment mean something.

The detectives have been sent to the front, and if you obediently go to find clues to waste your brain, it is more or less not very bright.

Oh no.Gojo Satoru tilted his head and added something in his heart.

Simple children like Tanjiro are not included.

"what--?"

As if he couldn't believe what he heard, Hattori Heiji asked back in disbelief.

"You want to ask us to investigate the fire ten years ago?"

He could guess that Gojo Satoru was talking about the fire that happened near the Nonomiya Shrine.

But... like Tanjiro said, it's been almost ten years.

The original fire scene had already been renovated and reorganized, and it was almost impossible to find previous clues, let alone investigate other things.

Therefore, Gojo Satoru not only threw them a problem, but also dropped a bomb.

"Brother Heiji is a super-super powerful detective!" Conan tugged Hattori Heiji's sleeve.

"So even though this commission is difficult, Brother Heiji can investigate clearly."

"Isn't that right, Brother Heiji?"

"What are you talking about! Work—"

Hattori Heiji suddenly twitched at the corner of his mouth and his face changed drastically.

While gasping for air, he laughed awkwardly at Gojo Wujo.

"Yes, yes, I will definitely investigate the fire."

Hattori Heiji put his hands behind his back without a trace, grabbed the hand that was still clutching his waist, and tried to pull it out, trying to make people let go.

'What are you doing! '

Grinning his teeth in pain, he glanced at Conan who finally let go.

'idiot!You almost revealed my identity! '

Conan didn't show any weakness, and also stared back.

"Then, I leave it to the two detectives."

How could the little actions of the two be hidden from the six eyes.Gojo Satoru didn't tell the truth, but the smile on the corner of his mouth widened.

But now that he has accepted this commission, Hattori Heiji and Conan will not be idle.

"So, why on earth do you want to help that guy investigate this matter?" Heiji Hattori asked while squatting on the side of the road, looking at the vehicles coming and going on the street, holding his chin.

Conan's actions at this time are similar to him.

"Because I feel that this should also be a very important clue."

"When did you become an intuitive creature..." Hattori Heiji whispered.

He stood up, patted the dust off his clothes, and then turned the cap on his head to the back of his head.

"All the answers, let's start the investigation!"

The first step in their investigation is to find out where the fire happened.

Hattori Heiji only remembered a rough idea, probably near the Nonomiya Shrine.However, he didn't know the more detailed location.

After all, if you really want to count, they were only seven years old at that time, and it is already rare to have an impression.

"The old people in this area may still have an impression of the fire ten years ago."

Conan frowned, carefully studying the map in his hand.

"Then I'll go to the police to investigate." Hattori Heiji also took out his mobile phone, ready to start making calls.

"If there is no accident, the police should have a record of the fire ten years ago."

After finalizing the preliminary investigation plan, the two quickly began to split up.

But obviously, the progress of the matter is not as easy as they imagined.

"what--"

Hattori Heiji couldn't help but raised his head and shouted.

"Why is there only a part of the dossier on that fire!"

I found it after searching, but most of the important content inside has been blurred, and looking at it is equivalent to looking at it for nothing.

"The people around here are also very secretive about the fire, and they are not willing to go into details at all."

Conan is also inevitably frustrated.

The young people in the neighborhood basically didn't know about the fire, and the older generation knew, but he was interrupted before he could ask a few words.

"This thing is a curse!"

"This is Lord Vulcan's anger!"

People of the older generation repeated such rhetoric, and they refused to continue to elaborate.

"Hey, Hattori." Conan said suddenly, "Don't you think it looks alike?"

Just like the inexplicable case before, it seemed that a pair of invisible hands moved quietly, silently trying to hide all this under the shadows.

"That's true." After hearing what Conan said, Hattori said seriously.

It's just that these two roads are almost blocked, and their investigation is undoubtedly another difficulty.

"But the approximate location is finally clear."

"On Geye Highway."*

"If you're on the main road..." Conan looked at the map, "Maybe there are shops that still have the surveillance records from that time?"

"What are you thinking, Kudo?"

This time, it was Heiji Hattori's turn to mock Conan.

"Let's not talk about how much the surrounding shops have changed in the past ten years. At that time, there were very few shops with surveillance cameras."

What's more, the video ten years ago is very likely to have been deleted and overwritten, and they can't find it at all.

"Yes!" Conan knocked on the head.

He was confused just now, such a simple matter could be ignored by him.

In that case, they are really in a dilemma of no way to investigate.

"Then... what about Nonomiya Shrine?"

Conan suddenly raised a possibility.

"Nonomiya Shrine is a shrine that worships the god of fire. There is such a big fire in the surrounding area, it is impossible that there are no clues at all."

Hattori Heiji also hit the head.

That's right, because they paid too much attention to the fire itself, they actually ignored the latest clue.

It is a pity that the news that this clue can get is not satisfactory.

"The fire ten years ago..." Riko Tenuchi frowned, her face a little stiff.

"At that time, Kuroi and I had just arrived at the Nonomiya Shrine, so we only heard about it."

lie.

Riko Tennouchi pursed her lips.

But this is an unwritten rule in the magic world, and the existence of the magic world is not easily revealed to ordinary people.

She didn't quite understand what Wujo Satoru wanted to investigate with the help of these two detectives, but she had to lie to deceive these two young detectives who were not afraid of tigers.

"Huh? You two are back."

Intentionally or not, Gojo Satoru just happened to pass by here with Tanjiro.

"Well, did you find anything?"

"Um……"

Hattori Heiji reluctantly told the white-haired man the incomplete information they had investigated.

"We need more time for more detailed matters—"

"No, it's enough."

Gojo Satoru abruptly interrupted Hattori Heiji's words.

His blue eyes were clearly seen through the gaps in the sunglasses, and Hattori Heiji could clearly see the sharp coldness hidden in those eyes.

'Rotten Orange is trying to cover it up - it looks like there was definitely something in that fire that they were trying so hard to bury. '

'However, knowing this, it is much easier to check. '

Gojo Satoru had a lot of thoughts in his heart, but on the surface he waved at Hattori Heiji and the others.

"Then, thank you for your hard work."

"That's the end of the investigation. I will pay you later."

Hattori Heiji/Conan: ...Hello!

Isn't this kind of investigation without beginning and end really playing detective?

"Ah, oh, right."

Suddenly remembering something again, Gojo Satoru returned with a low voice.

"To be on the safe side, it's better for you not to go to Shibuya recently."

He lowered his head slightly, and looked straight at the passionate young man in front of him with six eyes.An invisible deterrent successfully made the two of them freeze in place.

"There seems to be something wrong over there."
