"Fuck!"

A national curse was uttered.

At the moment when Xiaolan called out, Kudo Shinichi on the phone screen had turned into Conan.

This, this is too fast...

But luckily, this thing has a recording function, I’ll go back and take a look at it.

"What's wrong, Brother Xiachuan?" Xiaolan asked worriedly.

He didn't understand this sentence, but from his expression, he could tell that Xia Chuan seemed shocked. Did something happen?

Is that the thing on that flip phone?

Thinking of this, she was about to walk forward to check.

Xia Chuan naturally would not let Xiaolan see the video, so he quickly closed his phone and put it in his pocket.

"Haha! It's okay, Conan? We've searched all the rooms on the second floor, except for the study, and this is the only one left."

He pointed to the room next to him where Conan was. Now that Kudo Shinichi had become small again, there was no need to hide Conan.

Click.

The door he was pointing at was opened.

"Sister Xiaolan."

Conan's soft voice came out, his voice was very nasal, he was wearing an adult shirt with long sleeves reaching the ground, his expression was extremely tired, as if he was carrying several hundred kilograms of weight on his body.

"Conan! Why are you here?"

Xiaolan was both angry and worried. After seeing the pitiful Conan, she didn't know where to vent her anger.

"I just had to pee urgently, so I came out to find the bathroom. When I couldn't find one, I started to feel dizzy again, so I slept in this room."

Although Conan himself was also confused, he still forced himself to find an excuse to fool Xiaolan.

My neck hurts, my head hurts, and my feet feel sore and weak.

Have I returned to normal before? I should have become bigger, is that right?

Conan himself was a little confused after asking three questions in a row.

Could it be that he has a cold and fever, is he delirious and has hallucinations?

These questions were still unknown to Conan, and no one could help him answer them. He only knew that his body temperature was at least 39.

Anya curled her lips, and there was not a single truth coming out of Conan's mouth.

She stole another glance at her father.

There seemed to be a smile on the corner of my father's mouth.

Listen to your heart again.

Well, the loud laughter made her eardrums buzz.

"Isn't it time to talk about this? Has the murderer of the case been found? Who is the murderer? Did Hattori brother deduce it?"

Conan recovered and finally remembered the case.

If we follow Hattori Heiji's reasoning, this case would have fallen into the trap of the murderer. The murderer could not be the father of the deceased, but should be the deceased's wife.

Before he was carried to another room by Xiaolan, he saw Hattori Heiji finding the fishing line that Tsujimura Kimie used to frame Tsujimura Toshimitsu. If Hattori Heiji continued to reason along this line, he would definitely be led by the nose and end up framing a good person.

No! There is only one truth!

Xiaolan didn't care about the case at all and was always looking for Conan.

Although Xia Chuan knew the result, he did not say anything at this time.

Seeing that the two of them knew nothing, Conan thought to himself that something was wrong and went to the study to aim the anesthetic needle at his own personal loudspeaker.

"Hey, Conan, you can't run around anymore, the doctor is here!"

Without thinking twice, Xiaolan grabbed Conan by the back of his collar and walked down to the first floor.

"The murderer! The murderer is..."

Conan struggled to land, but he was powerless against Xiaolan.

Before he could finish his words, his CPU started to smoke due to his cold and overworking his brain. He felt dizzy again, and there were no more images in his eyes. He gradually fell into darkness.

Chapter 29 May the lovers eventually become siblings

The reasoning in the study has ended.

Wearing the newly launched handcuffs, Kimie Tsujimura walked out of the study under the escort of two police officers.

Following behind was Inspector Megure.

Seeing Natsukawa at the door, Inspector Megure looked a little embarrassed.

"Brother Xia Chuan, I'm really sorry for what happened just now..."

Ha ha.

I didn't expect that I would be included in the list of Inspector Megure's brothers.

Xia Chuan waved his hand and explained again, "No, it's because Aniya didn't tell you the reason earlier, otherwise we wouldn't have argued for so long."

"Aniya, come over and apologize to Officer Megure, Mr. Mori, and Mr. Hattori."

"No way!" Anya took two quick steps and ran behind Xia Chuan.

It’s not her fault. It’s because Uncle Maori is too scary. Conan even fainted, but the bump on his head is still there.

If I had said it earlier, I might have been punched.

"It's okay. It's not Anya's fault. Even if she said it, we adults who think highly of ourselves might not believe it."

Hattori Heiji said self-deprecatingly, pressed down the brim of his hat, and turned his back to show off, "Thanks to Aniya, I have learned a new detective philosophy."

Aniya blinked her eyes, feeling recognized, and asked quickly: "What is the new detective philosophy, Aniya wants to know."

“What you see with your eyes may just be what others want you to see.”

That's it?

Natsukawa couldn't help but want to pick a booger and throw it at Hattori Heiji, but considering that it would have a negative impact on Aniya, he finally held back.

"The son of Headquarters Manager Heizo Hattori is a bit of a chuunibyou!"

Kogoro Mouri looked back with dead eyes and spoke in a low voice to Inspector Megure.

"Indeed there are some..." Officer Megure nodded and continued: "After all, he is a high school student, but his reasoning ability is indeed good. Although his reasoning is wrong this time, at least it is clear and logical."

What could Inspector Megure say? He couldn't convince Buseizo that his son was a pig and almost led him and Maori Kogoro into trouble?

This is the son of the Chief of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters. We cannot diss him casually.

Kogoro Mori nodded and said nothing.

He muttered to himself that he had been Inspector Jusan for a long time and had become more careful with his words.

Seeing several people coming out, Natsukawa raised his eyebrows and called out to Officer Megure.

"Officer Megure, are you only arresting Tsujimura Kimie?"

What's the meaning.

Everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment. Could there be something else going on in this case? A case within a case?

Is the murderer playing Inception?

"Do we need to arrest anyone else?" Officer Megure asked uncertainly. Could it be that Hattori Heiji missed something again this time?

"Natsukawa boy, just say what you want to say." Kogoro Mori also shouted.

Natsukawa did not answer immediately. He looked at Hattori Heiji, wanting to see if the other party could come up with it again.

"what?"

A black question mark appeared above Hattori Heiji's head.

Seeing this, Xia Chuan sighed.

Didn't anyone realize that there's another person here who should be arrested?

"Are you talking about the relationship between Takayoshi Tsujimura and Sachiko Katsuragi?"

Maori Kogoro asked with wide eyes (o_O)?

One of them is the son of Tsujimura Isao, and the other is the daughter of Tsujimura Kimie. Their parents are husband and wife, so if you insist on saying that they are siblings, that makes sense.

It's certainly not okay for brothers and sisters to have affairs, but these two aren't related by blood, so it should be okay.

"Of course not, Uncle Maori, what are you thinking about?" Natsukawa was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He didn't expect that Maori Kogoro had such a clear mind that he actually discovered this detail.

However, as a single man, he still wants to silently express his blessings here: May lovers eventually become siblings!

Okay, the above thoughts are inner monologues and are not expressed verbally.

"I'm talking about Mr. Tsujimura Toshimitsu." Xia Chuan's expression returned to normal, and he glanced at the extremely surprised Tsujimura Toshimitsu and continued:

"Mr. Toshimitsu Tsujimura just admitted to killing his son. He is suspected of helping his daughter-in-law take the blame and misleading the police. I think Officer Megure needs to arrest him as well."

Hearing this, Hattori Heiji seemed to have thought of something: "Oh, and he is also suspected of abusing his power for personal gain and using his position to frame other diplomats. Although it happened 20 years ago, the criminal prosecution period may have expired."

“No!” Tsujimura Kimie shook his head, his face calm but his eyes full of hatred. “To be exact, it’s nineteen years, ten months and seven days. The criminal prosecution period has not yet expired!”

Even though Tsujimura Toshimitsu had the idea of ​​taking the blame for her just now, the long-accumulated hatred cannot be eliminated overnight, and Tsujimura Kimie still hated the old man who was nominally his father-in-law.

The biggest reason for her ex-husband's downfall was because of him.

At that time, Tsujimura Isao was not yet an official diplomat, and only Tsujimura Toshimitsu, a senior official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, had the ability to frame her ex-husband who had become an official diplomat.

I don't know when Tsujimura Toshimitsu's expression returned to normal, as if he was not the one being accused, and he seemed to be very open-minded.

"Mr. Li Guang, do you have anything else to say?"

Inspector Megure's expression became a little serious. Although the other party was once an official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he has now retired and his successor has died. No one should say anything if he attacks him now.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department is the capital's police agency directly under the Neon Police Agency. Although it is not an opposing party to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the interests of the ministers are extremely complicated. If they can obtain some black material on the other party, they will definitely not let it go. If Tsujimura Toshimitsu can be arrested, I'm afraid the people above will be very happy.

In this way, he can also get some benefits.

Now the First Investigation Division and the Third Criminal Investigation Department are a little short of manpower. It's time to find some capable men.

Especially since Xia Chuan was let in so easily just now and he was not even notified.

He didn't say anything about it, but he felt upset about it in his heart.

Even though Xia Chuan did help solve the case after he came in, the police officer guarding the gate outside did not fulfill his obligations and responsibilities.

I heard that the latest batch of students at the Police Academy are about to graduate, so it’s a good time to recruit some fresh blood.

And Miwako, it's time to transfer her back. She can't keep racing in the Traffic Division. Her abilities can only be fully utilized in the Investigation Division.

Tsujimura Toshimitsu had nothing to say. At this point he could only remain silent.

Standing nearby, Takayoshi Tsujimura, the only male of the third generation of the Tsujimura family, looked confused.

My father is dead, my stepmother has been arrested, and now my grandfather is going to be gone too?

In half a day's time, the only one left in the diplomat family was little Karami, who had just entered the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

My grandfather was arrested. If the Metropolitan Police Department asked him something, I'm afraid he would be implicated as well, and his future would be extremely bleak.

"By the way, a diplomat's salary shouldn't be enough to buy such a big mansion, right?"

Xia Chuan added in a low voice.

He was not targeting the Tsujimura family, but he felt that it was unfair that only Tsujimura Kimie was arrested.

Inspector Megure nodded. After hearing what Natsukawa said, it seemed that there was indeed a possibility that he was involved in corruption.

Even if the Tsujimura family had been diplomats for three generations, they could not afford such a mansion.

Unless their family has some tradition of business, but obviously not.

I had already done some research when I came here. The Tsujimura family has only one son for three generations, and the diplomatic profession originated from Tsujimura Toshimitsu. He had no previous business experience, so there are many problems here.

However, whether this charge can be established in the end depends on whether the Neon Tax Bureau can find concrete evidence.

Japan's Internal Revenue Service has been making big moves recently, with the newly appointed director aspiring to turn the service into Japan's IRS.
