Kato Shinsuke is a liar.

If you use some artistic language to process this profession, he is a dreamer - gaining benefits by fabricating lies. The content of the lies includes packaging his own identity and past. He has more than 20 false certificates in his hand alone.

He has been smarter than ordinary children since he was a child, and he is very proud of it.

Sometimes he is a returnee student, sometimes a collector, sometimes a rich second generation who is stupid and rich... With this kind of skills, he has obtained wealth that many people can't get in their lifetime. Idiots with broken families, of course, deserve it. If they have a little bit of brains, they should know that there will be no pies in the sky, and free things are the most expensive things in the world.

Of course, these identities are not his own, most of them were forged by him through some means, and Kato Shinsuke's own real occupation is sales in luxury stores. He has come into contact with many rich people on weekdays, and it is almost not difficult to imitate them.

Not long ago, he accidentally learned about this small detective gathering held by Mr. Miyagawa. The one billion yuan bonus made him immediately tempted. First of all, he had to find a way to get involved. I believe that with my own talent, no matter what kind of riddle the rich man wants to know, he can give him a satisfactory answer.

However, the invitation this time is a recommendation system, and the invitation letters issued are fixed, and they are all famous detectives. Unless he has plastic surgery, he will definitely be recognized as a counterfeit.

Kato Shinsuke, who originally thought that one billion yen was about to fly away like this, didn't give up like this, and spent a lot of money to find a reliable source of news to see if there was any range that could be manipulated.For the greater benefits that may be obtained, Kato Shinsuke never cared about the initial investment, but his vision has always been good, and he earns more every time.

"There is one." After pushing the cocktail to him, the intelligence officer in the bar answered his question, "Do you know Sherlock Holmes?"

"Detective novel?" Kato Shinsuke asked, the bartender shook his head with a smile, and kept silent. Kato Shinsuke took out another envelope from his pocket, and the thickness of it could be seen from the appearance. The bartender put the envelope away, and then Reluctantly opened his mouth.

"It's a well-known detective in the Metropolitan Police Department recently. Maybe it's a pseudonym, maybe it's something else. No one cares who he is, but his genius in solving crimes makes him very popular. And he himself is a low-key person. I don’t accept any interviews, and I don’t accept requests to go out.” The bartender smiled and said, with a hint of mystery in his tone, “He received that invitation, but he is a mystic…”

"In other words, he won't go." Kato Shinsuke took up his words.

"Few people know what he looks like. He has never been interviewed, but he spread his reputation through word of mouth." The bartender whispered, his tone full of delusion, "Excellent candidate."

Excellent, I can pretend to be a candidate, even because of his low-key and mysterious character, there is no way to know his character, and the difficulty of playing the role is the lowest ever for Kato Shinsuke.

"Do you have any more news about Holmes?" Shinsuke Kato pulled out a card from his wallet and pushed it over, "Tell me everything."

……

Kato Shinsuke was full of confidence, feeling that the one billion bonus had already fallen into his pocket, and this time besides himself, he had a helper.It was his cousin Fangji Sakurai who played with him since he was a child. After he got out of prison, he couldn't find a job, so he came to join his rich cousin.

He didn't care what criminal record his cousin had. For him, the more people who ignored the law, the better he could help him. The two hit it off and planned this impostor together.

Things were progressing quite smoothly. Ordinary people knew very little about the real detective Sherlock Holmes, who was not a character in a novel, but he was a well-known name to those in the industry.After coming to the villa of the Miyagawa family in the suburbs, he received unprecedented respect and compliments. The well-known detective complimented him meticulously, and even the eldest lady of the family expressed his favor to him.

The excitement that Holmes' name brought to him was indescribable. Seeing a bunch of smart people who had appeared in newspapers praising him made Shinsuke Kato feel an unprecedented sense of accomplishment.

Except for the uninvited kid named Kudo Shinichi.

I don't know why, Kato Shinsuke felt that something was wrong with this kid when he saw him. Although he couldn't tell what was wrong, he had such an intuition, and this intuition had created huge energy in his past great achievements. This time he also decided to trust this intuition.

Because he wanted to pretend to be a detective, Shinsuke Kato went to check the information of Japanese detectives, and of course Shinichi Kudo was among them.He can't say he has a photographic memory, but he remembers clearly that Kudo Shinichi is definitely not what he looks like.

Met a colleague.

Although he had the idea of ​​competing with his peers in his heart, the temptation of one billion yen was even greater. In order to prevent this peer from vicious competition with him, Kato Shinsuke decided to act first and find a way to get him out first.

"Kudo Shinichi" still has accomplices, and several people have vouched for his identity. The owner here has no doubts, and even specially made up an invitation letter for Kudo Shinichi.

However, when he was plotting secretly with Fangyoshi Sakurai, when his impulsive cousin said "You are also a fake Sherlock Holmes, what if you are exposed by him", he heard something outside the door , When the door was opened, that fake Kudo Shinichi was standing there.

Shinsuke Kato, who had murderous intent at that time, touched the folding knife in his pocket, and there was Fangkichi Sakurai next to him. It was absolutely easy for two adults to face a thin and thin underage.However, "Kudo Shinichi" was lucky. Someone came to him. It was the blond man who claimed to be Kudo Shinichi's cousin. He looked at him very dangerously. Kato Shinsuke decided to give up temporarily and find another opportunity.

He has always been lucky. Although the signal was interrupted, he found an old newspaper with a photo of Kudo Shinichi. This newspaper confirmed his idea. Next, he only needs to disclose this matter at the most appropriate time. This "Kudo Shinichi" will be driven away.

The most suitable time came soon. Someone died. When everyone was a suspect, Kato Shinsuke took the opportunity to announce that Kudo Shinichi was an imposter. Once there was any doubt, trust would collapse.

He told the story that the boy was a counterfeit, and presented very reliable evidence. Of course, the people who had secured the boy did not respond, while the other two detectives on his side and the Miyagawa family Everyone has doubts about that boy.

"It must be you! Misato has always been careful, she must have found out that you are a liar and was revenged by you!" The husband of the deceased, Eiji Miyagawa rushed up with red eyes, but was stopped by Amuro Toru .

"Mr. Miyagawa, please don't slander others at will. This kind of behavior can legally sue you for defamation." Toru Amuro stopped him, separating Eiji Miyagawa from Shiomi Kazuon.

"You are in the same group!" Junko Miyagawa stood beside Kato Shinsuke and accused angrily, "I saw you and Misato talking alone that day, you must be threatening her! My brother didn't drive you away, I also sent you a new invitation letter, you actually did such a vicious thing!"

As soon as Junko Miyagawa said the words, everyone's eyes turned to Shiomi Kazuo.

Looking at the boy's unchanged expression, Kato Shinsuke suddenly felt a sense of disobedience: the other party was calm for no reason.After being exposed as a liar, even he would feel flustered, but that young man remained calm as if it was someone else who was exposed...

"This is the worst reasoning I've ever heard in my life." The boy's tone was a little mocking, with his hands behind his back, those words had no effect on him, and he still stood there with ease, "I don't like to talk to strangers. No one can explain my behavior, but since my reputation is affected today, I will make an exception as long as I can."

His confident words made everyone present unconsciously quiet down, waiting for what he was about to say.

"First of all, I want to correct your most important mistake, sir." Xijian Heyin raised his voice, and there was a kind of excitement in his tone that he couldn't detect himself. The corners of his mouth raised unconsciously, and said softly, "As a detective , must be inferred based on clues.”

"If reasoning is not based on clues, the result is often to distort the facts to conform to the reasoning, instead of making the reasoning conform to the facts themselves (Note 1)." Conan unconsciously continued his words, and after he finished speaking, the whole room The eyes of everyone focused on him, and he explained with some embarrassment, "It's from Holmes, I mean in the novel... Brother Xinyi told me, um, brother Xinyi."

Conan, who had applied three patches in a row, decided to keep his mouth shut and stop talking. Fortunately, most of the people at the scene didn't have time to care about what an elementary school student who seemed to read widely said.

"So, what exactly are you trying to say." Sakurai Fangkichi was a little confused, and said, "Does this have anything to do with you being a counterfeit...Uh!"

Xijian Heyin, who had his back turned to him, turned around suddenly, and the front end of the cane in his hand was about to touch his nose in the next second.

"I don't like people interrupting me." Xijian Kazuo looked at him with very indifferent eyes. He didn't know if it was the illusion of Fangji Sakurai. He felt that this young man was especially impatient with him.

Obviously that brat was the one who really interrupted him just now, he just answered a sentence, why was he the one who was scolded?

Sakurai Fangkichi wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his hand, even he himself didn't notice that he was a little afraid of that boy for no reason.

"Let's start from the very beginning." Shiomi Kazune put his hands on the top of the cane, and said in a calm tone, "Since Miss Misato filed for divorce from the cheating Mr. Miyagawa last month."

Eiji Miyagawa's pupils dilated instantly, his lips were tightly pursed, and he glared angrily at Xiami Heyin, but Xiomi Heyin's expression did not change, and he could even feel from his expression that he sincerely felt that this case was very important. boring.

"Brother?" Miya Chuanhui looked at Eishi Miyagawa in surprise, but the latter did not refute. Miya Chuanhui's face turned pale, "Is it true?"

"Mr. Miyagawa's company was co-founded with his wife after marriage. If you divorce Ms. Misato, you will lose a lot of money, and your company will probably declare bankruptcy because of this. This is your painstaking effort. Naturally, you will not agree to this matter." You apologized and begged Miss Misato, but Miss Misato refused to forgive you, if it wasn’t for this puzzle-solving party held by your father, Miss Misato would have left here long ago.”

"So Mr. Miyagawa and Ms. Misato are counted separately in this bet?" Mao Lilan recalled Miss Misato's words at that time, and finally felt a little wrong.

"Then there is Miss Junko." Xijian Kazuon continued without giving the others a chance to respond, "You found out about this by accident, and your relationship with Miss Misato has always been bad, and I very much hope that Mr. Miyagawa will get along with her soon. I want to take this opportunity to add fuel to the flames. A reminder, a corkscrew...I don't like pushing ladies, or do you want me to go on?"

When Shiomi Kazuo said the first half, Miyagawa Junko still had an expression of indignation, but when she heard the keyword, her face turned pale, she took half a step back, shook her head, and murmured Said, "Impossible, it wasn't me...I didn't..."

"You said you didn't want to force the lady, so that's what you did?" Shinsuke Kato, who was standing next to Junko Miyagawa, said indignantly. Although he also felt that something was wrong, he had no way out, and he had to continue acting. .At least he wants to catch Miyagawa Junko, no matter what, Miyagawa Junko has fallen in love with him and will definitely keep him.

Xi Jian Heyin closed his eyes and sighed impatiently.

"I understand!" Conan's eyes lit up after listening to Xiomi Kazune's words just now, as if he had found the end of a woolen thread, as long as he grabbed the end of that thread, he could tidy up the messy woolen thread.

Hearing Conan's words, Xijian Heyin turned his gaze to him, the little detective looked up at him, Xijian Heyin nodded to him, although they didn't say anything, but at this moment their thinking overlapped, and they learned the same thing the truth.

"Understood what?" Mori Kogoro showed a confused expression. He knew that Conan had learned a lot from Shiomi Heyin, but he felt that Xiomi Heyin didn't say anything, "So who is the murderer, Mr. Miyagawa?" Or Miss Junko?"

Most of the people present are detectives, or have family members like Okiya Subaru, but his mind is also extremely fast. If he gets the same clues, he will definitely know the answer.

However, they also just arrived, and they don’t have the innate knowledge of Xiomi Kazune (Note 2), nor are they as familiar as Conan and Shiomi Kazune. For the same sentence, Conan can get more information from the perspective of habit, Finally, come to a conclusion faster.

"Although the two of them did have the intention to kill Miss Misato, the one who actually killed Miss Misato—" Conan lowered his head and pushed his glasses, and the corners of his mouth curled up, the glasses flashed a reflection, "It was him .”

Seeing the object Conan pointed at, everyone showed a surprised expression.

"Wait, why me? I don't know her at all!" The counterfeit Watson, Sakurai Fangkichi showed a flustered look, and retorted, "What the hell are you talking about, you little brat, you are so uneducated! "

"Someone gave you a sum of money to follow this gentleman, help him impersonate Sherlock Holmes, and gave you a proposal to call yourself Watson." Xi Jian Heyin's voice was very cold, he had already Get it all figured out.

Moriarty.

No, Moriarty didn't actually plan this.After all, for Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson is his Achilles' heel, and he can tolerate others pretending to be him, which can be easily dismantled for him.But he would never allow others to tarnish the friendship between him and Watson. Moriarty knew this very well. Use it in such a boring place.

Moreover, Moriarty was himself, and he would not forget whether he had done this kind of thing or not.

He also had calculations in his mind who did it. He still remembered that woman asked him who Sherlock cared about most. At that time, he was not thinking about it, and casually said Watson's name.

It's really not a big deal to watch the excitement, that woman Belmode.

If he had said that Sherlock cared about Moriarty the most, would this impostor have called himself Moriarty?

In the end, Xijian Heyin decided to credit Moriarty, anyway, he didn't have to worry about debts, and he would cause trouble for Moriarty when he returned.

Fangyoshi Sakurai took half a step back, showing a frightened expression. Even when he was told that he was a murderer just now, he didn't panic, but now, he was really scared.

Who the hell is he and how did he know?Even Shinsuke Kato didn't know about this matter, he obviously hid it well...

Xijian Heyin was impatient, Holmes' emotions affected him, and he couldn't take a good look at this guy who used Watson's name.

After listening to Xijian Heyin's words, Conan looked at him in a daze, but after seeing the detective with a dark face, he decided to let him explain the case.

He felt that if the detective was really forced to explain, maybe the detective would do something... He couldn't bear the consequences.

As for the "that person" that Xijian Heyin said, Conan also took it for granted that it was Moriarty, so it made sense.

"Because Ms. Misato discovered your secret. But you were invited by Ms. Junko. In order to win, Ms. Misato once negotiated with you, but you agreed to her on the surface, but secretly planned to murder her." Conan Said, with a very firm tone, and continued, "At the same time, Mr. Miyagawa was the one who had the intention to kill Miss Misato. Miss Junko was an accomplice. After Miss Misato struggled, she turned a deaf ear to it, and finally led to Miss Misato's death. .”

"Is that where the blood stain came from?" Amuro Toru also understood, showing a suddenly realized expression.

"That's right, Mr. Miyagawa gave Ms. Misato sleeping pills. Ms. Misato was a little sleepy during the fixed piano time every day. Sister Xiaolan said that she didn't hear the sound of the piano today, right?"

"Well, I usually hear Miss Miri's piano sound at this time, but today it only played for a while, and then stopped." Mao Lilan recalled.

"After Miss Misato felt sleepy, she wanted to go back to her room to rest, but she could only sit on the sofa temporarily after the effect of the medicine. Miss Junko who passed by realized something, and told the servants around her not to disturb Miss Misato, and sent everyone They all rushed to another place. Then they were killed by the murderer who had been paying attention to her. Miss Misato had already been killed when Mr. Miyagawa came, and the blood on the ground was wiped twice in order to conceal this incident."

Every time Conan said a word, the faces of the few people he mentioned turned pale.

Xijian Heyin sighed, and continued Conan's words, "The real reason why you want to kill her is because you knew each other before."

After hearing this, Sakurai Fangkichi finally relaxed, showing a calm expression, "Yes, I knew her before."

Then he told about the things he had helped Miss Miri, and said, "I helped her do a few things that were not on the stage, and I went to jail because of it. She still remembers me, when I appeared with my cousin She knew what was going on when she was there. I originally wanted to threaten her, but I was threatened in the opposite direction. For the mission that person gave me, I decided to kill her."

When Sakurai Fangkichi was talking about the task, he stared at Shiomi Kazuo, as if he knew he would understand, and his tone was full of sarcasm, "You didn't save her either."

His words are obviously rubbish, and now that everyone knows the truth, they will not be affected by such words.

In theory, this is the case, but Xijian Heyin looked in the direction of the room where Miss Misato died, showing a sad expression, "I told her to be careful before, and she said she handled it well. I should pay more attention She has some."

Although there is no way to contact the police now, there are still many servants in the manor. They temporarily locked Fangkichi Sakurai in a closed room and handed it over to the police after the time came to resume traffic.

Things seemed to come to an end, but Soma Kengo remembered another thing.He was already far away from Shinsuke Kato, and the identity of Kato who came with Fangyoshi Sakurai seemed suspicious.Even if he is really Sherlock Holmes, he can't even tell that there are murderers around him, which shows that his level is really average.

"But, you are indeed not Kudo Shinichi, right?" Soma Kengo stared at Shiomi Kazuo, and said in a low tone, "Kudou Shinichi was not invited either, the reason why you came here pretending to be him... What are you? who?"

"I could think of a thousand ways to prove my identity in a second, but let's just leave it to the facts."

Hearing his words, Xijian Kazuo took out a pipe from his coat pocket, held it in his hand, and finally smiled.

Kato Shinsuke, who was hit hard, also raised his head at this time. He seemed to know something, showed an expression of disbelief, and suddenly turned around and ran outside. Everyone was stunned by this change, but he was surprised. Standing at the door, Toru Amuro, who had been prepared for a long time, fell to the ground with an elbow, and lay on the ground in embarrassment, Kato Shinsuke's face turned green.

Xijian Kazuo squatted down in front of him, and said with a smile, "To play Sherlock Holmes, you must at least understand a little reasoning, right? From the beginning to the end, you are only right about the fact that I am not Kudo Shinichi. But it is a pity, you proved it I'm not Kudo Shinichi, so I can only take back your Sherlock experience card, thank you, Mr. Liar."

As he finished speaking the last word, a crisp sound appeared behind Kato Shinsuke. Kato Shinsuke had a pair of handcuffs on his hands, and looked at him dully. Kato Shinsuke's voice trembled, and he could feel My heartbeat was abnormally fast, and I couldn't stabilize my emotions at all, "You... who the hell are you..."

"Sherlock Holmes."

The boy stood with his back to him, the name seemed to be unsealed, and after he said it, the whole person's aura also changed dramatically.Like a sharp sword that reveals the truth, just standing there gives people indescribable convincing power.

What comes out of his mouth must be the truth.

Xi Jian Heyin turned his head away, looked at him from the corner of his eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly turned up, and added:

"truly."
