Pretend To Be a Good Person In the World of Conan - Chapter 429
Conan sat up straight, staring at the thick folder.
He still remembers Shiraishi’s keen sense of smell for the case, and now it seems that it is not just based on intuition, but based on proper investigation. Not only is he talented, he is intuitive, and he is also very hardworking. No wonder he can do things he can’t.
Now, since Shiraishi said that he felt very bad, it should be really bad, and there may even be a potential murder.
…but why tell them? Doesn’t Shiraishi usually deal with it himself, or give it to the black cat?
Conan’s ability to associate is rich, and he instantly thought of the envelope just now, and Shiraishi’s promise to go shopping with them.
It seems that Shiraishi pays great attention to helping the client maintain face, and doesn’t want to tell them about the Moriyuan family, but plans to go to the Moriyuan family in person, and then solve the problem as calmly as before.
But just now he received a letter and suddenly changed his attention… What was written on the letter? Is it because there are other more important cases that Shiraishi can’t get out of, so he wants to leave this matter to them?
Hattori Heiji didn’t think so much, he was more interested in the matter itself.
Since Shiraishi mentioned the strange relationship of the Moriyuan family, Hattori Heiji remembered one thing:
“I heard from my mother that the person Mrs. Moriyuan likes is Shigematsu’s housekeeper. At that time, Mrs. Moriyuan went to see Shigematsu at Moriyuan’s house. Master Moriyuan thought she was looking for him and proposed to her, and Mrs. Moriyuan agreed. Later, the two of them lived well, both children and children, but the housekeeper Shigematsu was a bit miserable…”
Speaking of this, Hattori Heiji combined with the cases he had solved in the past, and gradually came back to his senses, guessing:
“It’s the housekeeper Shigematsu who finally can’t stand this situation, so he wants to do bad things to Mr. and Mrs. Moriyuan? But Mrs. Moriyuan passed away a few years ago.”
Hattori Heiji began to seriously think about whether Mrs. Moriyuan’s death had other hidden reasons. For example, she was killed by Mr. Moriyuan. Now the housekeeper Shigematsu accidentally found out the truth and avenged her love.
“No, the problem lies with Mr. Mori Yuan’s son, Mori Yuan Kikuto.” Shiraishi denied Hattori Heiji’s seemingly reasonable speculation:
“According to my investigation, what happened to Mrs. Moriyuan and the others is likely to be repeated in the next generation.
“The ‘fiancee’ of Moriyuan Juren likes the adopted son of the housekeeper Shigematsu, a servant of Moriyuan’s house. She went to Moriyuan’s house to meet the adopted son, but Moriyuan Juren misunderstood… things Slowly it developed into what it is now.” They all started to prepare for the wedding ceremony.
“Oh…” Hattori Heiji began to speculate again, “Could it be that Moriyuan Kikuto sensed the truth and felt that it was hard to save face, or that he liked his fiancée too much, so he wanted to kill the adopted son of Butler Shigematsu?”
“Why can’t it be the adopted son who wants to kill the people of Moriyuan Kiku in order to steal his sweetheart?” Although Toyama and Ye didn’t know why Hattori Heiji acquiesced that someone would die, they also pondered along this line of thought.
Conan also raised an objection: “It may also be that Shigematsu’s housekeeper is eager to protect his son, and he doesn’t want to let his tragedy repeat itself on his adopted son, plus the past grievances, so he wants to kill Moriyuan Juren.”
Mao Lilan sat on the side and listened carefully, shocked. Is the big family so complicated? No wonder Brother Shiraishi wants to move out by himself. But he may also be close to school, although he has almost never seen Brother Shiraishi go to school…
“…Not all of them.” These people’s guesses all made sense. Shiraishi paused for a second and reorganized the thoughts that were interrupted by them:
“The housekeeper Shigematsu discovered the situation of admitting the wrong person, but in order to protect the family’s face, he did not directly explain the matter, but used the evidence of Moriyuan Juren’s tax evasion as a threat to put pressure on Moriyuan Juren and wanted him to take the initiative. Break off the marriage, so that things can be settled quietly.”
“Threats…” This time, all four high school students understood.
Victims of threats in this world are known to be very backboned and far-sighted.
They will all be soberly aware that if things go on like this, the needs of the threat actors will be a bottomless pit, so they will have the idea of having nowhere to go, and they will do everything possible to kill the threat actors.
From this point of view, the most dangerous is actually the housekeeper Shigematsu?
Shiraishi was relieved to find that they finally caught the right key words:
“Recently, my friends have been helping me observe the situation of their home, and found that the behavior of the people of Moriyuan chrysanthemum is a bit strange.
“He himself suffers from acrophobia, but recently he would occasionally stand by the window of a high room, throw bundles into a tree, and pull them back with the attached rope, much like…”
He didn’t finish.
But Hattori Heiji and Conan understood as soon as they heard it – they were practicing the abandonment of the weapon.
Letting the murder weapon fall on the leafy tree can not only hide these things well, but also because the tree is too high, some people who do not think carefully will give priority to exclude patients with acrophobia after discovering the murder weapon.
Shiraishi flipped through the folder, and others could see the A4 paper full of text flashing one by one, and sometimes there were pictures, and occasionally they could capture some of the technical terms on it, but they couldn’t see the specific content.
After looking through it for a while, Shiraishi seemed to sense their curious eyes, hesitated, and closed the folder again:
“Sorry, I can’t show you these. There are some materials in it… It may have an impact on his family’s reputation and company. I originally wanted to take the time today to hand over the materials to the client, but suddenly there is something else…”
Something else must have meant that letter.
The two high school detectives are still curious, but now they have another mysterious case from a wealthy family to attract attention, and they are no longer entangled.
Hattori Heiji quickly understood what Shiraishi meant: “Don’t worry~www.mtlnovel.com~ We will definitely stop this matter and ask them to talk about it – I don’t come to Tokyo very often, and my mother rarely comes, either. Don’t worry about being embarrassed to see them.”
Shiraishi nodded. In fact, Heiji Hattori and Conan didn’t dare to count on him, especially when Conan had a clue, no one would tell him. He just thought silently in his head, and only thought “So it is!” “It must be It’s that person!”, a detective who never discloses specific names and keywords.
This matter still has to be done by outspoken people, such as two people from Osaka, plus a kind-hearted Mao Lilan.
However, can only talking about things really solve the problem smoothly? If Moriyuan Juren is the type who does not pursue mutual affection, but only greedy for face and body, and continues to insist on marriage, maybe it will be derived Another murder.
Shiraishi is still a little concerned. In the past, he did all the tasks himself, and high school detectives are very good at solving cases and catching the murderers, but stopping the murders…
Shiraishi glanced at Conan, and found that Conan’s eyes were also a little empty, and he rarely had a point on his success rate in stopping the murder.
Looking at each other for a moment, Shiraishi went back to the back room when several people went out in a hurry.
Conan felt that Shiraishi still had something to say, so he walked slowly.
Soon, he saw Shiraishi come out holding a black cat.
The neighbor put the cat in his hand, and lovingly instructed: “Take it, maybe it can help.”
The cat didn’t seem to be awake yet, lying on its stomach, only the tip of its tail swayed, indicating that it was still a live cat.
The corners of Conan’s eyes jumped. He thought that Shiraishi was in a panic and went to the doctor, but when he received the cat, he found that he was involuntarily relieved.
Conan grabbed the cat and left dryly: “I will try my best.”
