Ke Xue: The thief Cao is actually myself

Chapter 439

"Alright everyone! We can go back now!"

Hearing the voice of Officer Megure in front of him, Bai Ye stopped and saw many police cars parked in front of a house in front of him. Conan and his group of brats stood in front of the police cars and said to Officer Megure:

“We really saw it!”

"I trusted you just because you solved the puzzle of the maple leaf gold coin last time. What a fool I am!"

Inspector Megure said self-deprecatingly.

"Is that Brother Bai Ye?" Ayumi asked, pulling on the corner of Conan's clothes.

Bai Ye squeezed into the crowd, and the group of policemen who had originally blocked the area saw Bai Ye coming and let him in directly.

"Hello! It's Brother Bai Ye. I didn't expect to meet you here." Inspector Megure greeted happily.

"I just happened to be passing by." Bai Ye smiled and said, "What's going on?"

"There's a body in this house!" Conan said quickly, "In the bathroom on the first floor."

"Yeah, yeah." Ayumi echoed, "And his whole body is covered in blood!"

"Really? You guys have been insisting on this kind of excuse since the beginning!" Officer Megure said unhappily, "We, a group of police officers, have been searching with them for an entire afternoon but found nothing."

"Excuse me, may I ask?" A middle-aged man saw that the police were not leaving, so he walked out of the door and asked, "Excuse me, who is this?"

"Oh, ask him!" Officer Megure got out of the car and patted Byakuya on the back, "He is the detective Byakuya Byakuya who helped our police solve many cases!"

"Detective?!" the middle-aged man wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, "I don't think Detective Bai Ye would believe what these kids are saying."

"We are not talking nonsense!" Yuan Tai said unhappily, "Brother Bai Ye, you must believe us."

Bai Ye did not respond to Yuan Tai's words. He looked at the man and asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"

"I'm so sorry, I forgot to introduce myself." The man took out a piece of paper from his pocket and said, "This is my business card."

"Tomofumi Tanaka, works at a securities company." Bai Ye said, stroking his chin.

"Yes, we are all people who live a good life. It is simply a fantasy to have a corpse in the house." Tanaka said with a smile.

"Hey! Conan, why don't you say anything?" Mitsuhiko poked Conan and asked, "I think Brother Bai Ye seems to believe what that man said."

"No." Conan said with a smile, "As long as we are not mistaken, Brother Bai Ye will definitely believe us."

"What do you think, Brother Bai Ye?" Inspector Megure asked curiously.

Bai Ye did not answer directly, but asked: "Didn't you see the bloodstains left by the children in the bathroom?"

"No!" Inspector Megure shook his head.

"I didn't see it either..." Tanaka said.

"Is there anyone else living in this house?" Bai Ye continued to ask.

"This uncle has a brother who lives here." Conan added, "And this house belongs to this uncle, his brother is just staying here as a guest."

"Yes." Tanaka Tomofumi said nervously, "My brother Tanaka Kazuyoshi is sleeping on the second floor right now, so he can't come down. I'm so sorry."

"Sleep?" Bai Ye smiled and said, "Officer Megure, could you please tell me what happened after you got here?"

"Oh! Brother Bai Ye, do you really suspect that there is a dead body in here?" Inspector Megure said in surprise.

"This... Detective Bai Ye," Tanaka wiped the cold sweat from his head and said, "Do you also believe what these kids say?"

"Let's not talk about whether I believe it or not for now. While I'm waiting for the identification personnel to arrive, I might as well get to know the situation." Bai Ye said with a smile.

"What identification personnel?" Inspector Megure was a little confused.

"Aren't you guys arguing about the disappearance of the bloodstain?" Bai Ye said speechlessly, "Officer Megure, why don't you find someone to do some Luminol reaction?"

"Oops! I actually forgot about it. Go quickly!" Inspector Megure suddenly remembered this.

"Um..." Tomofumi Tanaka asked in confusion, "Excuse me, what is the luminol reaction?"

"It's the so-called blood stain reaction." Conan began to popularize science at this time, "This detection method is extremely sensitive and can detect blood with a content of only one millionth. Even if a drop of blood is dropped into a large tank of water, it can be detected.

Whether we are lying or not, I think the truth will be revealed soon!"

"Conan, you know a lot." Ayumi looked at Conan with some admiration.

"That's right, Conan, how can a child like you know so many things?" Inspector Megure asked suspiciously.

"That's all. Uncle Maori taught me occasionally!" Conan said with a silly smile, touching the back of his head.

"What? Why does that guy Mori always teach you weird things?" Inspector Megure said somewhat dissatisfiedly.

"Um..." Tomofumi Tanaka asked awkwardly, "Mr. Policeman, do you want to continue searching?
Even if that reaction worked, didn't you find any bodies when you searched just now?"

"Yes! But..." Inspector Megure patted Bai Ye on the back and said, "Wasn't there no detective present just now? I believe that Brother Bai Ye will be able to find clues!"

As for me...is it really okay to explain in such a vague way in front of everyone that the police are useless?

"I'd better understand the situation at the scene first." Bai Ye said, holding his forehead.

……

After a while of explanation.

"So, are you sure the body won't be taken out?" Bai Ye raised his eyebrows.

"Yes!" Officer Megure nodded and replied, "We police have searched this area. It is impossible for the murderer to carry the body out of the backyard after killing someone."

"The gate is guarded by our Junior Detective Team, no one can go in or out!" the three kids said. "In that case," Bai Ye looked towards the second floor and said, "then the body is in that room, right?"

"Have you discovered the truth, Brother Bai Ye?" Inspector Megure said with surprise.

"But the police have already searched all the rooms on the second floor." Tanaka Tomofumi said nervously, "They even checked my brother's room. There is no hidden space on our second floor."

"Yes." Conan thought, "The room where his brother sleeps is very empty. You can tell at a glance whether someone is hiding there."

"Me, what are you thinking?" Bai Ye rubbed Conan's dog head and said, "If there really is a body and it hasn't been taken out, there are only two people living in this house, and Mr. Tanaka standing in front of us is a living person, I think his brother is the body."

"What kind of reasoning is this?" Conan said speechlessly, "Even a child can guess this. Do you think the murderer would make such a low-level mistake?"

"Low-level?" Bai Ye smiled and said, "But you obviously didn't see it."

"Hey! Wouldn't this kind of thing be exposed if any of us suddenly asked his sleeping brother about something? Besides..." Conan seemed to have thought of something and stopped here.

"That's right, Detective Bai Ye, what reasons do you have to suspect that my brother has become a corpse?" Tomofumi Tanaka continued Conan's words with some excitement.

"Yes, Brother Bai Ye." Officer Megure said awkwardly, "After all, it was his brother who opened the door for us, and when those ghosts broke the teapot, his brother was still yelling at us upstairs."

"Mr. Tanaka, are you a little too excited?" Bai Ye asked in a leisurely tone, "Wouldn't it be more convenient to just ask the person involved to come down and explain the matter you're asking? Whether he has turned into a corpse or not, why are you questioning me here?"

"Of course it's because my brother is sleeping!" Tanaka's face turned pale, and he explained hurriedly, "My brother doesn't like to be disturbed when he sleeps. He has a very bad temper."

"Okay, Mr. Tanaka." Bai Ye sneered, "Yes or no, just let the police see your brother."

"This..." Seeing Bai Ye's tough attitude, Officer Megure stood up and said, "Excuse me, Mr. Tanaka Tomofumi, we need to confirm your brother's condition now, is that okay?"

"Haven't you already investigated?" Tanaka said at a loss, "Don't you believe what you see with your own eyes?
Besides, it was my brother who opened the door for you when you came here. You are being too overbearing to investigate again just based on the suspicion of a detective who believed in the child's words! "

"I'm sorry, Mr. Tanaka, please cooperate with our investigation." Inspector Megure was obviously unmoved by the other party's fierce rebuttal.

"No!" said Tanaka Zhishitu in front of the door, "Detective Jin Baiye, if you don't give me an explanation, I won't let you in!"

Eh? Is his brain broken? But murder is something that cannot withstand investigation. Being able to hide it in front of so many police officers and Kudo is really dancing on the edge of a knife.

But it seems to be quite successful...

Seeing that Inspector Megure was about to take strong measures, Bai Ye shrugged and said, "Tanaka Tomofumi killed his brother and disguised himself as him to open the door for the police. He then changed his clothes on the second floor and escaped with the help of a big tree. Later, he pretended to be off work and returned home as if he didn't know anything.

According to your description of the scene, this is roughly what it was like.

If Conan and the others had seen the body at the beginning, then I think only the twins could have disguised themselves to such an extent."

"I see!" Officer Megure lowered his hat and looked at Tanaka and asked, "Mr. Tanaka, do you need to explain anything?"

"You are just talking nonsense!" Tanaka Tomofumi yelled, "Why would I kill my brother? Do you have any evidence?"

"I think the leaf that fell out of Uncle Tanaka's pants was left there by you accidentally when you climbed out from the second floor."

Conan came out from behind, holding a leaf and said:

"And I'm also curious why the phone didn't ring when you answered it just now."

"I may have accidentally touched the leaf on the road, and I just happened to see the phone coming, so I answered it before it rang." Tanaka Tomofumi sneered and argued.
"What can these things of yours prove?"

I have to say that sometimes people's minds work very quickly in crisis situations. Tomofumi Tanaka came up with words for these things in just a few seconds.

"Actually, I wasn't quite sure at first." Conan took out a Big Brother Avenue, "But Brother Bai Ye was so sure that Mr. Tanaka Kazuyu was dead, so I guessed where the roar came from?"

Conan dialed a few numbers under the other party's horrified gaze and said:

"Just when I came out, I wrote down Mr. Tanaka's home phone number. If my reasoning is correct, everyone should be able to hear it now..."

You guys are so noisy, could you please be quieter?

Tanaka Kazuyu's roar came from the room, and a group of policemen immediately started talking. Inspector Megure said with a gloomy face:
"Mr. Tanaka, is there anything else you would like to explain?"

"Even so...even if everything is just as you said, but...you, do you have any evidence?" Tanaka Tomofumi asked as if he was grasping at a life-saving straw.

"Do you have any evidence that I killed my brother?"

"I think Inspector Megure should be very good at investigating murder suspects." Bai Ye rubbed Conan's head and said, "Our mission today ends here."

"Yes." Officer Megure nodded and said to his men, "Go and investigate the alibi of Tomofumi Tanaka, and go and investigate whether there are any missing bloodstains at the scene.

And you, go investigate whether anyone else has been in or out of this area today."

Then, Officer Megure said to Tanaka, "As for Mr. Tanaka, please cooperate with our investigation for the time being and refrain from any drastic actions, okay?"

"No... no need to bother with that." Seeing the police already in action, Tomofumi Tanaka came to his senses and realized that his hands and feet would be exposed sooner or later. He knelt on the ground and said in disappointment.

"My brother is dead, and I killed him, just as Detective Bai Ye deduced.

I thought this matter would be solved perfectly after you left, but who knew I would run into a detective who came from somewhere else. I am really unlucky."

"Unlucky?" Bai Ye sneered, "Don't you know who was the first to discover the crime scene?"

"Ding ding ding ding! It's our Junior Detective Team!" Yuan Tai jumped out excitedly.

"That's right, even if you cheated the police, we will get to the bottom of it!" Mitsuhiko said confidently.

"That's right, and we have Conan here whose brains are not inferior to Brother Bai Ye!" Ayumi pushed Conan and said, "Uncle, it's impossible for you to get away with it!"

"So your name is Conan." Tanaka Tomofumi looked at Conan and said weakly, "You are indeed a smart kid. I didn't expect that you could see through all my tricks."

"Speaking of which, Brother Baiye." Inspector Megure approached Baiye and asked, "Why are you so sure that Mr. Tanaka Kazuyu is dead?"
