Conan: This repairman is not very knowledgeable

"Mr. Chuanjiu, please tell us in detail about that woman." Uncle Maori asked the little monk.

In a small temple like this deep in the mountains, no matter who committed suicide or died here, it would not cause any trouble. I don't know what the problem is with the old monk.

"That day, the woman came to the temple alone and chatted with the master for a long time. Then the master asked me to show her the temple's photo album."

"However, I never knew what they talked about in the room."

"Later, the master told her to stay in the guest house for one night. There was nothing else to say. By the way, the woman looked very sad."

Chuanjiu carefully recalled what happened after the woman came to the temple.

"Did she choose to commit suicide because she was too sad..." Uncle Maori couldn't help but wonder whether that woman was the old monk's lover.

"It seems the mystery has been solved." Lin Feng said after looking at the two people who were smiling.

“……” Uncle Maori smiled when he saw Hattori holding the windmill that Xiaolan and the others bought during the day.

So that’s it, I understand!
"The body and the blood did not disappear, but were cleverly hidden!"

"The host used some amazing mechanical devices, just like this windmill. After you find someone to go over, the house will turn around..."

Uncle Maori started talking nonsense while holding the windmill.

"What is he talking about..." Conan looked speechless.

I am a hopeless person who is attracted by this uncle's reasoning. . .

"Mr. Maori, there are only four rooms in that annex. We and the police have searched all of them. Even if it really can rotate, it can't be hidden, right?"

Denkyu was confused, not knowing what the famous detective Kogoro meant by saying this.

"The answer to the question is on the glass cabinets in the four rooms." Hattori couldn't bear it anymore and gave the answer directly.

"Is it the cabinet where the statues of the Four Heavenly Kings are placed?" Chuanjiu looked puzzled.

The glass cabinet is only thirty or forty centimeters long and wide and can be seen through at a glance. What's the problem?
"There's no problem from the top or the side." Lin Feng sat back in the car, found the specialty, and said while eating.

"That's right. I don't know if you have noticed, uncle, that both the wine stain you found and the cigarette burns I found are in the corner of each tatami." Hattori put his hands in his pockets and asked Uncle Mori.

Uncle Maori nodded, that was indeed the case.

"Ahhhhh!"

"Where did my detective badge go?" Conan's glasses somehow fell to the ground and he squatted beside them and shouted.

"Conan, put on your glasses first."

Xiaolan and Kazuha helped pass the glasses to Conan, and then found the detective badge under some leaves.

"There's a leaf stuck on my glasses..." Conan muttered as he took a leaf off the transparent lens of his glasses.

"Xiaolan, is it the same inside the annex?" Kazuha asked, covering the detective badge with a leaf.

Lenses, leaves, emblems, stains are all in the corners...

"???"

Uncle Maori also came over and bent down to watch the fun.

“Are there leaves stuck under the glass case of the Four Heavenly Kings?”

Xiaolan thought about it and felt that it was very likely, as Hattori had just said the same thing.

Just cut a piece of tatami skin, stick it on the bottom of the glass cabinet from the outside, and then place it on the tatami with blood on it. At a glance, the bloodstains underneath will disappear. "But if the police search and move the cabinet away, it will be exposed." Uncle Maori feels that this method is a bit risky.

"The statue inside is so heavy that even if someone wants to move it, they will consider whether the glass will be broken."

"So, a normal person would at most take the statue out of the cabinet and take a look at it." Hattori shook his head and said.

Didn't the old host remind us that the statue was valuable and of special significance? I guess the police wouldn't even take out the statue when faced with an empty room.

As long as the tatami stained with the woman's blood is moved under the statue, no one will notice.

"As for who prepared this mechanism under the statue in advance, I think it must be the two young monks who left the temple two months ago."

"That's what they used to hide wine stains and scorch marks."

Hattori talked about the two young monks who were secretly drinking and smoking.

"Of course, the person who would use this mechanism to hide the bloodstains is the Master Shi Lian who took over the cleaning job and whom we have always suspected."

Hearing this, Chuanjiu was shocked. He still couldn't accept that the master who raised him since he was a child had really done such a thing.

"So, did he kill that woman???" He Ye asked in surprise.

The old monk is a little scary!

"No, he just hid the body. After Chuanjiu found the body three days ago in the morning, the host came up with the idea to hide the body and the blood."

"I think he hid the body nearby before the police left."

Regarding this point, the conclusion is the same as before. The old host is not a murderer, otherwise he would not have waited for the young monk to discover it before dealing with the body.

"Then, what about the corpse I saw tonight?!" Chuanjiu felt a little scared when he thought about his master moving the corpse out again.

"How can it be……"

Hattori shook his head.

The corpse with a knife stuck in the stomach tonight should be the old host in disguise. As for the blood, based on the smell that Brother Lin Feng smelled, it can be confirmed that it is tomato juice.

The purpose of doing this is to make the people who have not left believe that Chuanjiu really had hallucinations and his words cannot be trusted.

Of course, there are flaws in doing this.

Because he hurriedly replaced two tatami mats, the wine stains and burnt marks were revealed.

"..."

Lin Feng sat in the car and watched Hattori and the others run towards the temple's annex.

"Brother Lin Feng, aren't you going?" Xiaolan asked puzzledly.

"That old man put on a wig and was covered in blood, but he still wanted to hide the truth. He committed suicide anyway, so who cares what he did." Lin Feng said casually while eating snacks.

"There's nothing wrong with saying that, but don't you want to know why he did this?" He Ye nodded, then shook his head.

"The truth may not satisfy everyone. If we can bury it with our own hands, no matter whether it is good or evil..."

……

On the other side, Hattori and Conan, who were running wildly, seemed to have thought of something and looked at the monk Denkyu almost at the same time. (End of this chapter)
