The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

Um?

Everyone heard the explanation from the curator of the art museum, and at the same time saw that the curator was wearing a pair of polished leather shoes.

"Director, you."

Although no one, including Conan, still knows why Director Ochiai lied in such a place, everyone has turned their suspicious eyes on Director Ochiai.

"Director Ochiai, can you please explain?"

Facing the Megure Police Department's inquiry, Director Ochiai's eyes widened, and his hands, which were so strong just now, were now trembling as if he had Parkinson's disease.

In fact, at this time, Ochiai Juquan's brain was not completely empty of explanations for reference.

For example, when you get older, you forget, or when you arrange your socks and insoles, you just say the wrong thing.

But the most troublesome thing now is that Ochiai Juquan doesn't know what Qin Zhibo saw.

If Qin Zhibo had indeed seen his actions at that time, he would have only gotten darker and darker until the police and detectives completely discovered his methods.

But before he squatted down, he had clearly made sure that no one around him could notice his small movements. How did the detective named Qin see it?

When Director Ochiai was speechless due to extreme confusion, it was Qin Zhibo who broke the deadlock.

"Since Director Ochiai is old and has 'forgot' what he just did, let me explain it."

"You put this on the ground, then picked it up and put it in the inner pocket on the left side of your suit."

As he spoke, Qin Zhibo rolled it up in a handkerchief and showed the ball pen he had just brought from the crime scene.

Director Ochiai: My ball pen!

CONAN: My handkerchief!

Director Ochiai was extremely surprised at this time.

Director Ochiai's original plan was to let the police discover the ball pen themselves and then confirm the authenticity of the death message through video.

But he didn't expect that this important ball pen would not only be picked up by Qin Zhibo, but also allow Qin Zhibo to see the whole process of "replacing one thing with another". He even knew that the replaced ball pen was placed in the left pocket of his suit.

In fact, Director Ochiai didn't know that if it weren't for the sudden addition of an investigation point in his field of vision, Qin Zhibo would not have cared about Director Ochiai's little actions at that time.

As for why Qin Zhibo's description was so accurate, it was like seeing it with his own eyes.

This is of course because Qin Zhibo did see it

"Sorry, I need to check your belongings."

Without being polite, Officer Megure put his hand directly into the left pocket of Director Ochiai's suit and took out a ball pen of the same model as the one used at the crime scene.

"Another ball pen?"

"How is this going?"

Officer Megure originally thought that he would be able to find some great physical evidence, a murder weapon, etc., but it turned out to be just a ball pen.

But with Qin Zhibo's testimony, combined with the video he just saw, and the price of a punch on the head to get a look at the note with the death message, several suspicious points in Conan's brain were finally connected. Line.

However, although Conan understood, Officer Megure and Mouri Kogoro next to him still did not understand.

So Conan reminded him in a childlike voice: "Uncle the curator must have replaced this pen because there is some difference between the two pens."

"For example, the difference between writing and not being able to write."

At Conan's reminder, Mumu quickly used two pens to write and draw on the paper, and he discovered the difference.

At this time, Mouri Kogoro finally slapped his forehead and suddenly realized: "I understand!"

"The note with the death message just now was actually prepared a long time ago. Then when Boss Manaka was attacked, he used words to draw his attention to the note, and then left a piece of paper next to him that he couldn't write. pen."

"Judging from the silent video, it looks like Boss Manaka wrote the death message after being attacked by a prisoner. You can blame others!"

After Kogoro Mouri's explanation, Officer Megure also understood the method.

"So that's it!"

"As expected of Brother Maori!"

Officer Megure enthusiastically hit Mouri Kogoro on the back, but in Conan's eyes, he firmly denied Moori Kogoro's credit.

Not to mention that Mouri Kogoro came up with these reasonings after his own prompting. Even he only understood this technique after Qin Zhibo's testimony.

In other words, the entire process of solving the case is like this.

In the short period of time after the discovery of the body and the arrival of the police, Qin Zhibo had actually understood the method of this case.

However, at that time, Qin Zhibo did not know who arranged this trick and could not identify the culprit.

However, the prisoner must replace the inoperable ball pen that was thrown away by Manaka's boss no matter what, otherwise the trick will be exposed immediately.

So Qin Zhibo has been waiting, waiting for whoever replaces the pen to be the prisoner.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Qin Zhibo to fully capture Director Ochiai's small movements when everyone relaxed their vigilance, including himself, who was rushing to the monitoring room to check the video.

Therefore, if the reasoning ability is ranked according to the speed of cracking this case, Conan thinks it is like this

Qin Zhibo＞Conan＞Moori Kogoro＞Officer Megure

Conan even had a vague feeling that when he felt like Watson and Qin Zhibo was a Sherlock Holmes, Qin Zhibo had already seen through the methods of the case and tested himself.

Conan didn't feel this huge sense of oppression caused by the gap in reasoning strength from many people.

In other words, in terms of reasoning, there is only one person who is convinced by Conan.

Kudo Yusaku

But why can this person also allow himself to realize this gap in reasoning ability?

Who is he?

Under the pressure of all parties, Director Ochiai finally announced his guilty plea, raised his head proudly, and told his criminal motives.

It turns out that it was Manaka's boss' plan to transform the art museum into a hotel that made Director Ochiai, who had been running the art museum for decades, have murderous intentions.

In his eyes, the art museum is sacred and his own child, and he does not allow "devils" like Boss Manaka to get involved.

As for why Kubota was blamed, it was because Kubota had been caught by the curator for stealing art from the museum before. It was because he knelt down and begged for mercy that he relented and did not call the police.

But after that, Director Ochiai discovered that he still had no repentance and treated the artworks in the museum roughly. Moreover, the artworks in the museum had been lost recently.

So this time Director Ochiai was determined to punish him in his own way.

In the mind of Director Ochiai, Kubota, who stole and sold art, was also a "devil".

Hearing this, Officer Megure asked the two men next to him to control Kubota.

"Mr. Kubota, you have been arrested for theft."

"But the recent theft of art from the art museum was really not my fault!"

Kubota denied it with all his strength and pretended to be innocent, but Officer Megure was selfless and asked his men to take Kubota away first.

Looking at Kubota being taken away, Director Ochiai looked at the painting "God's Punishment" and sighed.

"It seems that although the devil was killed by the righteous knight, the knight was also baptized by the evil blood and polluted by the devil."

Just when the handcuffed Director Ochiai was about to turn around and leave with the police, a long voice came.

"But only humans can be killed, and the real devils"

"It can't be killed."
