Conan the Hell Puppet Master

"Of course the duty of the police is to...help civilians!"

Gao Yuanzhao was full of smiles and played a good policeman.

"Really? Thank you very much. When my boat was lost, many children saw that a man with a red baseball cap drove the boat away."

"Red baseball cap!"

This keyword instantly attracted the attention of Conan et al.

"dad.

Didn't we see that... man this morning too? It seems to have driven a small boat."

"Yeah, I remembered, it's over there on the headland, right, but at the time we saw it from the grass below the headland, next to it...the cliff, and the ship drove directly over, where to go? Well"

Kogoro can only think of this, but the owner of the boat rental shop next to him...a local operator, he pointed out as soon as he heard Kogoro's description.

"That direction is the sea area where Lawyer Tachibana usually fishes. This time the accident happened in that place."

"Could it be this person?"

With Gao Yuanzhao as a superior, Inoki spoke a lot more cautiously.

"At that time, we saw the boat capsize after two hours. We went back to the villa to eat and killed on the spot..."

Gao Yuanzhao held his chin and thought for a while, then ordered.

"Direct autopsy and autopsy. I want the most accurate time of death. In addition, you can call Mrs. Ju Xue, the wife of lawyer Ju, and she will definitely cooperate and sign."

...at seven o'clock in the evening, in Kensuke Tachibana's villa.

Gao Yuanzhao really didn't take this as someone else's house, and was sitting on the sofa with Xiaolan chatting with me, just as the TV was playing a horror drama, Xiaolan liked this one the most.

"Ding dong!"

The doorbell rang, and John's cry came.

Conan Kogoro, who was tormented by Gao Yuanzhao during the day, quickly formed a small group and sat far away from the door, not even looking here.

Gao Yuanzhao was helpless, so he could only lead Xiaolan to open the door, and sent one to open the door... "Yeah!"

Xiaolan was directly frightened.

It turned out that the person standing at the door was a tall man, but his face was very thin and his face was gloomy and gloomy... "Are you the police officer from the Metropolitan Police Department? I am a horse farm in Chiba Prefecture. Please advise."

"Please advise..."

Gao Yuanzhao stretched out his hand while comforting Xiaolan.

"I'm really lucky this time. I can see the legendary police officer with a 100% detection rate, and I can also see Kogoro who solves the case while dancing the traditional dance."

Maybe in Chiba Prefecture, dancing and solving crimes are more compatible! Please download the chapter to read the underlined version of the novel

"What, sleeping pills were found in Attorney Tachibana!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard the investigation results of the two police officers Inoki and Machang.

"Yes, and the time of death can also be confirmed as close to noon, which is the time when you saw the boat capsize."

This news surprised Kogoro and the others even more than the previous one...

"If that's the case, is that... the man in the red baseball cap driving the boat has nothing to do with this case?"

"This cannot be confirmed for the time being, but we will take this person as the key suspect."

At this time, Mrs. Yaeko also came in from the door.

The attention and the horse farm immediately greeted him.

"Excuse me, did you make the bento that Attorney Tachibana ate yesterday? Can you tell me what it included?"

"Yes, in the bento I made yesterday..."

Yaeko said a bunch of ingredient names, which were consistent with the food scraps found in Tachibana Kensuke's stomach.

"Then, the person who gave this lunch to Lawyer Tachibana is..."

"It was Lawyer Ying Ting, because Lawyer Ying Ting seemed to be discussing something with Lawyer Tachibana, so he took it directly."

"Anyway, everyone from the Orange Law Firm will come here tonight to discuss matters. You should stay here and ask them if they have any impression of the man with the red baseball cap."

Facing Gao Yuanzhao's order, the two police officers did not refuse, but no one came until Mrs. Yaeko made dinner.

"That...actually speaking of the red baseball cap, I remembered a person like this who came to visit, but had a fight with the lawyer at the time."

At this moment, Yaeko who was preparing the tableware suddenly said.

"I wasn't sure before, but the more I thought about it, the more I made sure that I remembered correctly. I don't know who it was!"

"Really, if you can be brought into the study by Lawyer Tachibana... go, go to the study and see if there are any... records!"

Everyone walked into the study and happened to see an extortion letter on the table.

"Watch out for Your Excellency!"

"Let's see, the content is... extorting three million, sign it, go and check whether Lawyer Tachibana has... diaries, etc., whether there is any record of this matter."

Several people, including Kogoro and Conan, began to get up in Tachibana Kensuke's study, and there was indeed a diary, which also recorded this matter.

"You dare to blackmail me, you should know that you should be in prison."

Hearing that there was such a record in the diary, Gao Yuanzhao pondered for a moment.

"Let's leave it alone for now. We will do our best to search the lost boat. I will ask the people from the Metropolitan Police Department to check it. Regarding the disputed defense of Lawyer Tachibana over the past few years, see if there is any... signature."

Hearing that Gao Yuanzhao was willing to mobilize Tokyo to investigate the case, both Inoki and Machang seemed very happy.

"I'll also ask you about the news of the Orange Office, this will only make you work hard for one night."

...After one night, the door was mingled with the barking of dogs early in the morning, and there was also the excited shouting of the police officer Zhumu in the middle.

"Shiro-kun, it looks like they were yesterday!"

Xiaolan shook Gaoyuanzhao.

"in spite of....

He was too busy looking for information last night, I also gave the list to Kogoro, let him go to receive it!"

That being said, in fact, Gao Yuanzhao is... lazy, he prefers sleeping with Xiao Lan in his arms rather than communicating with the two policemen.

Xiaolan also remembered that last night, Gao Yuanzhao came to her room very late, and it seemed that she was really busy until late, so she hugged Gao Yuanzhao distressedly.

Gao Yuanzhao smiled happily.

On the living room side, Kogoro was also listless. After all, Gao Yuanzhao woke him up at 3 o'clock last night and explained the arrangements for the day.

It's... Conan, who is in the highest interest, after all, his own archenemy, at this time, is actually slack and lying in bed.

Although the thought that Gao Yuanzhao was lying in bed in Xiaolan's room, Conan's heart was twisted.

But after so long, he had already learned the spirit, thinking about being uncomfortable, not thinking about it, devoting himself to solving the case, and defeating Gao Yuanzhao today...hehehe.

"Stinky boy, don't laugh so disgustingly!"

After Kogoro completed the daily punching task, he took out the list compiled by Gao Yuanzhao last night.

"At this time, I was screened out by my brother yesterday, and the list is in the name."

The two policemen did not immediately say what they found, but took over the list.

"Kumada Tatsuya, Kumada!"

Inoki hurriedly took out a red baseball cap in his hand, the embroidered inside the cap was the Roman accent of Kumaga-"This hat, are you..."

"Yes, we found the boat on a beach and returned it to the store owner. This hat was on the boat at the time. Mrs. Yaeko, do you have any impression of this hat?"

"It's like this!"

Kamei Yaeko nodded.

Suddenly, the one next to me said, "Kumada, Kumada"

The Kogoro, who was standing, suddenly slapped his forehead.

"I remembered that last night, brother Zhao also specifically told me about this person, because this is the only person who is currently under financial pressure and lives in Chiba Prefecture. !"

"Really? It's in Chiba Prefecture."

Inoki said excitedly while rummaging for information.

"As expected of the police, you can think so much more than the rest of us."

Worship was also written on the horse farm's face.

"Hey, that guy is only one step ahead, okay? And he can't hear the flattery now!"

Conan complained jealously in the bottom of his heart, and on the surface he was really jumping up and down to see what they said.

"Kumada Tatsuya, who was suspected of killing a colleague five years ago, was an innocent defense by lawyer Tachibana, but he did not escape another civil lawsuit for embezzlement. This guy has a criminal record."

"Officer Zhumu, you look at this address, it seems to be... the apartment that is twenty minutes' drive away from this villa area."

"Yeah, it doesn't seem to be wrong, it's just... He, the extortion failed, so he made a murderous move, let's go, and now let's go and call your Excellency the police officer to visit the suspect together!"

"I'll go and call Uncle Zhao for help!"

Conan volunteered to help, trotting all the way to the bedroom, but he slowed down halfway through.

He didn't really want to call Gao Yuanzhao, he just went through the motions and found a reason by the way, such as... "Brother Zhao, let me go instead of him!"

"Really"

Kogoro didn't believe it, and wanted to confirm it.

"Really, he also said that whoever dares to call him again, he will strangle anyone to death!"

When Xiaogoro heard this, as if Gao Yuanzhao said it, he immediately persuaded.

"Then let's go together!"

"Okay, it's not bad to have the famous detective Kogoro Mouri to accompany you! Haha!"
