Conan the Hell Puppet Master

"Tired, not at all, I didn't say it, this is to compensate for not being with Xiaolan well yesterday, so you can rest assured!"

Gao Yuanzhao said, and also lifted up Tuo Xiaolan.

"Of course, if Xiaolan gave me a kiss of encouragement, I would have more strength."

Xiaolan's face turned red, not only because of Gao Yuanzhao's words, but also because Gao Yuanzhao pinched badly when he was holding it up.

Although she was a little embarrassed, but considering that Gao Yuanzhao had carried him on his back for so long, and that there were really no outsiders around, she still mustered up the courage to kiss Gao Yuanzhao on the face.

"It's not boring for two people to be like this every day!"

Xiaogoro complained, but he became more and more relieved about Gao Yuanzhao.

The relationship between the two is so good now, and he doesn't need to worry about Gao Yuanzhao's apology in the future. Xiaolan is gone.

If Kogoro is emotionally complex, then Conan is... very pure and sour. Seeing Gao Yuanzhao's happy expression, Conan can't wait for Gao Yuanzhao to get tired and lie down immediately.

"How can I make him tired?"

Conan turned his head and said coquettishly to Kogoro.

"Hurry up, Uncle Maori, I want to hurry to the hotel to take a bath. I was bitten by a mosquito before and it's so itchy."

"Mosquitoes hold back!"

Kogoro helped the sunglasses on his face and said helplessly.

"I was bitten before. Fortunately, I was wearing sunglasses. Otherwise, if my detective fans saw it, I wouldn't be ashamed."

"No! No!"

Conan dragged Kogoro's hand and ran forward while acting coquettishly, and "smoothly"

Say hello to Gao Yuanzhao.

"Uncle Zhao, hurry up and run!"

Gao Yuanzhao really didn't know Conan's childish calculations this time, and reminded him in his heart.

"Conan Beware"

"thump!"

.

As a result, Gao Yuanzhao's reminder was still a step too late, and Conan dragged Kogoro and tripped over a Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva that fell to the ground.

"Stinky boy, I'm still going to see detective fans in a suit."

Kogoro was so angry that he chased after him to beat Conan.

Conan didn't sit still, running and talking.

"Uncle, we kicked Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, so please help him up quickly, so as not to suffer retribution."

When Xiaogoro heard this, it was true, so he stopped chasing Conan, but respectfully prepared to help the Bodhisattva.

"Don't, don't, don't help that... Bodhisattva, or you will be punished!"

At this time, a high-pitched voice came, and the corners of Gao Yuanzhao's mouth couldn't help twitching, he knew that Yamamura was coming.

I saw Yamamura Cao slowly approaching several people in a car similar to a van.

"It's fortunate that you didn't help. You probably don't know that this Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is dedicated to evil spirits.

Gao Yuanzhao was mentally prepared, but Xiao Lan had always kept aloof from this kind of thing, and when she heard Yamamura Cao's playful words, she couldn't help but hold her hands even tighter.

Although Conan didn't believe in these things, he still asked a question when he heard that the other party knew so much.

"Is this gentleman a local?"

"Yeah, I'm a police officer in Gunma Prefecture!"

Yamamura proudly took out a police officer card.

"Now I'm going to the Kuiwu Hotel in front of this road to investigate the case... No, how can I tell you such important information, um, you must not tell others!"

Even though it was the first time they met, all four of the four present unanimously positioned this person as a fool.

"However, since it's a mountain village police officer, and the back of the car is empty..."

Xiaogoro looked at Gao Yuanzhao expectantly, because he didn't want to leave.

"What did you say, Xiaolan?"

Gao Yuanzhao didn't bother to care about Xiaogoro's life or death, he just asked Xiaolan's opinion.

"Let's take the car, Zhaojun, we are here to supervise Dad, but we can't be tired here!"

Listening to Gao Yuanzhao and the three of them discussing like no one else, Yamamura was a little uncomfortable.

"Hey, although I want to overload you for the sake of your familiar face, but are you taking the initiative... Come in, my car is a little small, please forgive me."

After seeing Gao Yuanzhao's police officer card again, Yamamura's performance changed his face, and the four of them were invited into the car and drove to the Kuiwu Hotel in front.

Everyone chatted hotly along the way, and the operation of the mountain village was a local person, who introduced the local forest vividly.

"This forest is named the Forest of the Head God. According to legend, the head god lives in it... This is a famous suicide shrine."

"Does this kind of thing need to be introduced in such detail? The last sentence is obviously more than that!"

Conan and Kogoro were listening with black lines all over their heads.

Gao Yuanzhao is...it's cool, because Xiao Lan, who was frightened, hugged his arms tighter and tighter.

"However, the police look straight at Your Excellency. You are also going to the Kwai House Hotel to investigate the... unidentified deceased in a red jacket. Why didn't I receive a notification!"

Yamamura's face was attentive, revealing his mission cleanly.

"I'm not here on behalf of the official, and the investigation is not a murder case!"

Gao Yuanzhao pointed at Xiaogoro while feeling Xiaolan's youthful taste.

"I came here with my friend, this ... famous detective Mouri Kogoro, and the person in charge of the investigation was just a suitcase that the hotel owner once said."

"Hey, are you the legendary Mori Kogoro!"

Listening to Yamamura's exaggerated and familiar tone, Kogoro thought he had run into his detective fan, so he adjusted his tie and tried to put on the air, but... "It turned out to be... a mustache! "

Yamamura Ao just complained, and then continued to chat with Gao Yuanzhao diligently.

Gao Yuanzhao is not easy to refuse, and can only ask the other party to explain the situation of the case.

"The first person who found the body was a clerk of the Kuiwu Hotel. According to him, he found the body when he was picking wild vegetables in the mountains. At that time, his first impression was... that body Weird."

"Strange, how do you say this!"

Kogoro was very upset because he was ignored, and he was determined to use this case to show his strength, so he listened very carefully.

This time Yamamura did not ignore him, but replied after thinking for a while.

"Obviously I have car keys, but I can't find my driver's license. I have cigarettes, but I can't find a lighter match. I obviously died in the summer, but I wear a thick sweater."

"How do you know that the other party died in the summer!"

As soon as he heard the news of the case, Conan couldn't care less.

"Because we found milk and bread in the backpack of the deceased, the expiration date was on July 7 four years ago, and we also found the invoice for shopping, so it is said that the deceased died in the summer and did not run away."

"What about the cause of death?"

One person asked, this time it was Gao Yuanzhao's turn.

"Your Excellency the police, the deceased should have committed suicide by hanging. A rope was hung from the neck of the corpse, and a branch was missing from a tree next to it. It is estimated that it could not bear the weight and fell after hanging himself, by the way. ..."

When answering Gao Yuanzhao, Yamamura's tone was much more respectful.

"The bread and milk mentioned earlier, because they fell to the ground and were pressed by the corpse, are completely out of shape."

"So, it is indeed suicide!"

Kogoro held his chin. Although he entered serious mode, he still "liked it" very much.

Suicide case closed.

"In this case, I still want to confirm, that's why I came here. The police look at Your Excellency, you came here..."

"I said it all, I came here with Kogoro!"

Gao Yuanzhao also had a headache for Yamamura Cao's diligence, and finally handed it over to Kogoro, in case they sparked a spark. "Little Goro, tell him what you said before."

"Is such that!"

Although Kogoro thinks Yamamura is an ignorant fool, he does not dare to go against Gao Yuanzhao's words.

"I heard that... the owner of the Kwai House Hotel said that he had met that... man in a red jacket before."

"Hey, when is it!"

Yamamura, who had an indifferent face at first, also took heart.

"Probably in October five years ago, the boss said that he still remembered that when this person came to the hotel, he went to him directly, saying that he was willing to spend 10 yuan, and asked the boss to keep a letter and a suitcase, saying yes A year later, even if he dies, he will come to pick it up."

"Are two things?"

Yamamura is a little curious.

"Yes, the boss told me that the red saying was..."

Kogoro frowned and recalled.

"If I come to pick it up myself, then give me the box, and if someone picks it up, give him the envelope. As a result, he still hasn't come to pick it up a year later. I don't know if the body they are talking about is a person."

"Well... does the boss... say that... the man in red has other characteristics besides... red?"

"I remembered, the boss said, the man in red has been pulling him to remember his red clothes and long hair."

"That's right! The body we found was... a man with long hair."

Yamamura confirmed immediately.
