Conan's villains

Officer Megure shook his head. After finding out the situation of several people, he ignored them and turned to Officer Takagi to ask about the current situation.

"The victim's name is Nakajo Katsunori, he is 43 years old, and according to the business card found on him, he is running a credit agency and is a detective."Officer Takagi reported

"So this guy is a detective." Yuanzi interrupted and said,"But this detective is too careless. A detective should be a very rigorous profession and be very sensitive to everything, but this guy was killed in such a place. Sure enough, not everyone is as good as Xiaolan's father."

Lu Ming glanced at Yuanzi and said,"Yuanzi, don't say such things."

Yuanzi tucked her head and closed her big mouth.

Judy said,"Huh? Is Maori's father also a detective?"

"That’s right, and he’s also a very good detective." Lu Ming said,"Hasn’t Teacher Judy heard of the sleeping Kogoro?"

"Wow, it turns out that Mr. Kogoro is the father of Maori classmate."Judy opened her mouth in surprise:"I have seen many reports about his reports and reasoning deeds. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the best detective in Japan."

As a daughter, Xiaolan naturally wanted to express her gratitude when her father was praised. Xiaolan smiled and said:"Thank you, Teacher Judy. Dad will be very happy to know that someone praises him so much."

Lu Ming glanced at Judy. Although she was smiling, the strange color that flashed across her face when she heard the name Maori Kogoro just now was accurately captured by Lu Ming.

This woman, I'm afraid she has some ideas in her mind again.

"But what do the circles, crosses, and triangles on the briefcase in the deceased's hand mean? Is it a clue to his death?"

On the other side, Inspector Megure has begun to study the clues left by the deceased, but the clues are too strange, and Inspector Megure frowned for a moment.

"Could it be that the deceased didn't want the murderer to know the meaning of the clues he left behind, so he deliberately used these symbols to represent them?" Officer Takagi guessed. Officer Megure nodded:"It's not impossible."

"Hey, do you think this"叉" means what you said, because"叉" can also be read as"X"?" Xiaolan asked the three quietly.

The three were stunned, and then laughed, especially Judy and Sonoko. The exaggerated laughter made Xiaolan embarrassed:"It's difficult, isn't it?"

"That can't be what he meant." Yuanzi waved her hands and said,"If that's what he meant, then the deceased was really cute."

Xiaolan was confused for a moment, and the puzzled look on her face looked very cute.

"Hey, is the X you are talking about the one that women often write at the end of a letter? Officer Gao Mu heard the conversation between the two people and came over to ask

"Hey, Officer Gao Mu is very clear about it." Lu Ming said with a smile:"Could it be that Officer Gao Mu often receives such letters?"

"Ahaha, no." Officer Takagi scratched his hair awkwardly and said,"These are just some pranks played by others."

"So, Officer Takagi, you know what that X means?" Xiaolan didn't care whether this was a prank or not. Seeing that Officer Takagi seemed to understand the meaning of that X, she naturally didn't want to miss the opportunity to get the answer, so she pulled him and said,"Officer Takagi, can you tell me what this X means?"

"This... I think you should ask your teacher Lu Ming." Officer Gao Mu was embarrassed to talk about this issue with a girl, so he quickly pushed the question to Lu Ming and continued to assist Officer Megure in investigating the case.

"Teacher Lu Ming."

Xiaolan looked at Lu Ming with grievance, feeling as if she had been abandoned by the world.

Lu Ming was also in a dilemma. If it was some learning problems, he would naturally not hesitate to explain to Xiaolan, but it was about love, and in front of so many people. Even if Lu Ming wanted to say it, he didn't know how to start.

He coughed dryly, and simply pushed the problem away again, saying:"Yuanzi, you and Xiaolan are best friends. What does X mean? It's better for you to explain it to her. Well, I'll go see if Officer Megure needs my help."

"Officer Megure." When Lu Ming came to Officer Megure, a forensic officer happened to run over with a mobile phone in his hand and said,"The call records on the victim's phone show that there was a call thirty minutes ago."

"What?"

This is indeed a very important clue. Inspector Megure took over the case from the police officer and said:"If we extrapolate the events back to the beginning, wouldn't that be the time when the murder happened?"

"Why not call and ask?" Lu Ming suggested,"Maybe we can get some useful clues."
