Conan: The Mechanic

The next morning, Didan Elementary School.

"Devil's horns?" Conan asked in surprise. "Are you sure?"

"And the devil's tail," Chiba shrugged. "All in all, it's the same thing, and it scares Officer Shiratori quite a bit."

"The tail thing can be solved by atavism, but the devil's horns..." Conan pouted. "What the **** is going on here?"

"I don't know anyway," Qianyu shook her head. "Maybe this case will become an unsolved case again - to be honest, the corpses have been burned like that, and it is quite difficult to find out the identity of the other party."

"If the victim's family reported the case, it might be easy to find a matching missing person, but I still don't quite understand what happened to that pair of characters," Conan repeated the topic. "Such a person should be easily spotted by the media and widely reported, right?"

Just as they were discussing here, the class bell rang.

……

While Conan was discussing his condition with the police officer Shiratori of the Metropolitan Police Department as Shinichi Kudo, while Ai Haibara was reading a book on exorcism that he would never read at all, Chiba was drawing— -Draw the general structure of the plate armor.

The Metropolitan Police told him this morning that he hoped he could give them a general description of what the armor looked like when he could, because they didn't find any armor missing in Hell. In such a situation, Chiba's description can greatly help them find the potential culprit with such armor.

Overall, this is a set of full-body heavy plate armor. On the head part, the helmet completely surrounds the entire head, the head has a mohawk-like decoration, and the face has a bulge that seems to be pushed up by something at the position of the nose.

In the arm part, there seems to be a thick shoulder armor on the shoulder. It is worth noting that the shoulder armor of the left arm seems to have a small protrusion more than the right shoulder armor. It may be that this part of the right shoulder armor is missing for some reason. . Further down, the outer side of the forearm is equipped with a number of scales, which are stacked with each other to obtain the defense power in the face of slashing. Similarly, the outside is provided by the armored gauntlets extending from the forearm armor.

There is nothing special about the chest area, but there seems to be something like a connecting belt on the chest - it looks a little strange on such a heavy defensive armor.

At the waist, this armor is designed with a whole set of skirt armor to protect the connection parts of the human body. The front of the skirt armor can even completely cover the vital parts of men. Protection from slashing attacks on the outside of the thigh.

The protection of the lower limbs is also fully armed, and the sound of the pointed shoes on the feet that are slightly tilted upwards hitting the ground is obviously made of pure metal.

Such a set of heavy plate armor... After painting, Qianyu smacked her lips.

[Those who can commit crimes and escape in such heavy armor must be very hard-covered and strong laborers. 】

……

At noon, the Metropolitan Police Department.

"It was passed down by Chiba, and he himself described the appearance of the armor worn by the murderer," Officer Takagi handed the fax to Yusaku Kudo-the latter was only planning to go to the Medieval Art Museum on this day, but he happened to meet him. Because of this incident, I assisted in the detection of this case with the strong invitation of the Shiratori police officer.

"That kid's painting skills are pretty good," Yusaku Kudo first admired after seeing the orderliness of the entire composition, and then began to carefully observe the details drawn on it. But it didn't take long for him to make a suspicious sound. "Um?"

"What's wrong?" Inspector Shiratori asked quickly.

"I don't know much about this child, how is his memory?" Yusaku Kudo asked.

"Very good!" Officer Shiratori hardly hesitated. "Almost unforgettable."

"..." Kudo Yusaku re-looked at the composition noncommittally, and finally rolled up the painting. "Contact the museum and ask if the armor they're putting on display is genuine. If not, where's the real thing."

After about three minutes, he got a reply - [All armors are genuine]

"Let's go have a look," Yusaku Kudo smacked his lips and stood up. "Go over there and take a closer look."

……

This medieval art museum is quite special compared to the average museum: not because of its size or anything like that, but because it is actually an art gallery attached to a Christian psychiatric hospital - the family that built it in the first place The investment income of the investment fund established is more than enough to maintain the operation of the mental hospital, and the patriarch himself is a Catholic believer, so he used the funds to acquire a nearby museum and rebuilt it into a medieval Christian Europe as the core. Contents of this medieval art gallery.

However, due to the depression, it is said that the investment fund suffered heavy losses, so the new president of the group who is the heir of the old Christian believer after the death of the old man needs to reduce expenses. There are rumors that they seem to be subcontracting the unprofitable art museum in exchange for funds. .

"How did you buy all these armors?" Yusaku Kudo said with an expression of admiration, looking carefully at the barrel helmet on the head of the Crusader Statue~www.readwn.com~. "You can see that the people who buy these things must be very knowledgeable."

"Mr. Dissatisfaction, you said, in fact, I chose the old ones," Ochiai, the director of the art museum, said with a smile, a shrewd old man who looked over old. "I have some talent in armor, so I bought the armor in the museum myself, without any exceptions."

"Oh, is that so?" Kudo Yusaku nodded with a half-smiling smile. "Allow me to ask curiously, if you retire in the future, is there anyone else who can take your place in this area?"

"Uh..." Curator Ochiai frowned and said with a wry smile after thinking for a while. "I think another specialist might need to be hired. Those kids have learned a lot in drawing, but there aren't many people who have done enough in military equipment."

"It doesn't matter, your body is still strong, and you still have a lot of time to slowly cultivate them or other people you like..." Kudo Yuji said in a very sincere tone, but before he could finish speaking, a policeman came. He came to him and whispered to him.

"What?" After hearing what the other party said, Kudo Yusaku showed a rather surprised expression.

"That's true, so Officer Shiratori wants you to come and see it." The policeman nodded and told the other party that what he told was the truth.

"Okay, no problem, I'll go right away." Yusaku Kudo's expression was a little shaken, and he left after saying goodbye to Curator Ochiai in a hurry.

Officer Shiratori told him that he had found the murderer who had pleaded guilty, and that the other party was a mental patient in a mental hospital.
