After seeing off Officer Takagi, the four opened the door of the detective office and walked in.

Xiaolan went to the kitchen to make tea, but Mori Kogoro couldn't wait any longer, he was thirsty and hungry at the moment, so he went to the refrigerator to get a bottle of beer, opened the lid and drank it.

"Phew! I feel like I'm alive again."

Yuge went to the bathroom, threw the disposable gloves hidden in the bag into the toilet, pressed the drain button, watched the two gloves being flushed down and disappeared, then turned around and went to the sink to turn on the faucet to wash handwashing.

Walking out of the bathroom, I heard Maori Kogoro yelling in the living room that he was about to starve to death, and asked Xiaolan to make a midnight snack.

"Then I'll make some bowls of ramen for everyone! I just bought the ingredients yesterday." Seeing Yuge approaching, Xiaolan hurriedly asked, "Yuge, what do you think?"

"Okay, thank you Xiaolan." Yuge smiled and thanked, but did not accompany her to help in the kitchen as usual.

Conan sat on the sofa with his head down and held his teacup but didn't drink, and didn't know what he was thinking.Mori Kogoro sat behind his desk, with his feet up on the table, threw away the empty drink bottle in his hand, and reopened a bottle with a "snap".

Yu Ge also sat on the sofa, took a sip from the teacup on the coffee table.The warm tea slides down the throat and into the stomach, and the whole body is instantly warmed up.

Yuge shook the cup in his hand, and the clear tea water rippled in circles under the light.

"Uncle, why did you show up there today?" Yuge looked up at Kogoro Mouri, who leaned back on the back of his chair, "Don't say anything about handling the entrustment, I don't believe it."

I still remember that when the statement was made at the police station, Mori Kogoro, as an acquaintance and the only adult, took the lead in being questioned.He said that he recently received a commission for a case. During the investigation, he found a man who was suspected to be a fugitive who committed a murder more than ten years ago. He was excited and couldn't help but imprison him privately. It was wrong, so I called the police.

I didn't expect my uncle to say that. Although Yu Ge had doubts in his heart, he didn't show it at the time.

As the investigation deepened, as the only family member who survived the tragedy that year, Yuge also followed his uncle's wishes and cooperated with the interrogation.Especially about how to lead that man into that building, and how he was tied up because he was afraid that he would run away. There are no other scars outside these two points are enough to prove the authenticity of Yuge's words, and I have received a lot of surprised or sympathetic eyes.

I thought it was a small case, but I didn't expect it to be involved in a murder and robbery case more than ten years ago. The police officer Takagi who led the team felt that the matter was of great importance, so he immediately contacted the chief police officer, Mu Mu. The lights are already brightly lit, as if the work process of the day has started in advance.

Perhaps because of his uncle's relationship with the police station or because of his title as a detective, the police easily believed his words.But Yuge didn't really believe it, maybe even if she didn't ask, uncle would still want to ask her.

Mori Kogoro was silent for a moment, put his legs back, straightened his back, leaned forward, and looked at her with piercing eyes, "Yuge, tell the truth, have you recovered your memory a long time ago?"

"Yes!" Yuge narrowed his eyes, and now, there is no need to hide it anymore.

Conan, who was full of "identity to be exposed" and "did that man really commit suicide in fear of crime?", heard the conversation between the two, and immediately came back to his senses, and sat quietly listening.

"When did you recover?"

"It's been many years!" Yuge heard the faint sound of "chopping chopping" vegetables coming from the kitchen, and the sound of water washing the dishes, "...Ah, it was about the year when grandparents passed away. Bar!"

After finishing speaking, Yuge suddenly laughed softly, "My parents must be protecting me, so I remembered it, and I finally found the executioner."

"..." Mao Li sighed, with a complicated expression on his face, "Since you remembered it, why didn't you tell me or the police?"

"There are so many murderers who fled outside, and the police caught a few more." Yu Ge's tone was still calm, not rushing. "I can't trust them...... Uncle's words, the police can't do anything about it, uncle is a detective, so what?"

"..." Although Kogoro Mouri is not happy about being called a useless detective, since he became famous, which case has not been solved easily?But the person who said him happened to be his niece, and he knew in his heart that there was really nothing he could do, otherwise he wouldn't have searched hard for more than a year after quitting his job as a police officer and found no clue.Kogoro Mori, who was somewhat guilty, pretended not to hear the last sentence, "Then why didn't you tell me after you found the murderer? You were so bold as to go to him alone. After all, he had killed someone before, so you didn't Do you think you might be in danger?"

Conan smiled "hehe" in his heart, uncle, have you forgotten that the man was tied up when you saw him?And who told them to rest assured the night before yesterday that the girl has the ability to protect herself, and none of the big guys are her opponents?

"Because I'm not sure yet! If I want to ask clearly, I won't wrong a good person. What danger could there be? As soon as I asked clearly, Conan appeared, and then my uncle and Xiaolan also came." Yuge turned to look at Conan , "Isn't it, Conan?"

Conan, who was listening seriously, suddenly heard his name, and those deep pupils who couldn't see his emotions slanted at him as if he didn't care. Sister Yuge is very powerful, that man is not her match at all, by the way, sister Yuge, what you said to the police just now is true, is it true?"

Conan, who was too clever and astute, took the opportunity to ask his doubts. Kogoro Mori couldn't help but look at him attentively. Of course Yuge knew what Conan was referring to. In order for the police to catch another suspect as soon as possible, Yuge this time Without any concealment, I told what happened that night that I knew from the beginning to the end, except...

"it is true."

"Sister Yuge, you seem to have missed something." Conan's glasses reflected a white light under the light, "When I was standing outside the door, I heard you say that it was because the man didn't open the cabinet at that time, so You got away with it and you didn't tell the police. Why?"

"...Forgot, besides, it doesn't matter if you don't talk about the trivial matters?" Yuge finished speaking calmly, and took a sip of tea calmly.

Conan frowned and looked at Yuge, doubting her perfunctory answer. If it was something so small that he would forget it, why did he mention it in that broken house?Is there something else hidden in it?

At this moment, Xiaolan walked out of the kitchen with a bowl in her hand, and the aroma of the food immediately permeated the whole living room. Maybe they were really hungry, so the three of them stopped talking and went to the dining table at the same time.

"Happy birthday! Yu Ge," Yu Ge took the chopsticks and was about to start, when he suddenly received Xiaolan's blessing.

Yuge raised her head, and Xiaolan continued with a face full of embarrassment, "I'm sorry, Yuge, I wanted to spend this birthday with you, but I didn't expect so many things to happen, and now I can only let you eat a bowl of ramen. …”

"It's okay, it's fine this way, this is the happiest birthday I've ever had in these years." Hearing Xiaolan say this, I thought of the lie I lied to her about going to Yokohama with my friends, since she didn't mention it Yuge acted as if he had forgotten, after all, Xiaolan should not know too much.

"When the other murderer is caught, can you treat yourself better, Yuge?" Xiaolan smiled, but her eyes were red, "I won't mention the past, let's live a good life together in the future, okay?" good?"

The hand that grasped the chopsticks tightened, and suddenly didn't know what to say. It turned out that Xiaolan didn't know everything, and the uncle next to him who was shouting that he was about to starve to death looked at her silently, Yuge lowered his eyelids , thought for a while and said, "Okay, if the other murderer can be caught too."

"Great," Xiaolan was very happy, turning her head to Mouri Kogoro and said, "Father, you must work hard to use your "famous detective Mouri Kogoro" ability, and strive to catch the murderer as soon as possible!"

"It's up to you," Mori Kogoro raised his hand in the air and made a gesture of grabbing something in the palm of his hand, and said confidently, "I am no longer who I was back then, and I still have clues. I believe it won’t take long to catch that guy, don’t worry!”

After finishing speaking, he burst out laughing.

Since it was already late, several people quickly finished their meal, Mori Kogoro went to the bathroom, Xiaolan cleaned up the dishes in the kitchen, Yu Ge and Conan were left sitting on the sofa relatively silent in the living room.

Yuge didn't speak, because she felt that she had nothing to say to this fake child, while Conan seemed to be thinking and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Hey, Sister Yuge, what did you say to that man when Uncle Mao Li and Sister Xiaolan came over?" The adult's tone broke the temporary silence, and the volume was maintained just enough for the two of them to hear .
