"Really, Xiao Ai must have done it on purpose!"
In the guest house, since the police have not yet arrived, Mouri Kogoro and several other detectives present are trying to analyze the murderer of the deceased Mr. Todo from the scene.
The three young detectives who had been actively trying to help were, after being yelled at by Mouri Kogoro, led by Mourilan to sit at a dining table under the stage.
"Yeah! It was obviously just a sneak peek as agreed. Xiao Ai must have just not wanted us to help, so she deliberately patted the uncle on the shoulder..." Ayumi nodded vigorously, with an angry expression on her face. .
"That's right! Xiao Ai, like Conan, always thinks that we will cause trouble. We are obviously very powerful..."
And Haihara Ai, who was complained by the three little ones, was sitting alone at another dining table next to her, leisurely scrolling through her mobile phone.
It's not that she was ostracized by the three little ones, on the contrary, she sat there alone.
"Okay, don't be angry. Do you want some cake?"
Also sitting at the dining table where the three little ones were, Qing Shuijing smiled and handed each of them a plate of cake.
"Thank you, Brother Qingshui!"
They each took the cake and started to eat it. Among them, Mitsuhiko seemed to suddenly think of something. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Qing Shuijing with an expectant look.
"Brother Qingshui, let's go find the murderer of Mr. Phantom Thief together, shall we?"
In previous reasoning activities, Qing Shui solved puzzles twice and showed very strong reasoning ability. This made Mitsuhiko feel that Qing Shui Jing might also have the ability to solve this case, and if he followed him, he would definitely find the murderer.
"no."
However, Qing Shuijing rejected him without hesitation.
"It's better for children to have as little contact with these things as possible."
"Oh, I knew it..."
Rejected by him on the spot, Mitsuhiko lowered his head and sighed.
"Obviously our young detective team is also very powerful, and Conan used to help the uncle solve crimes at the scene of the crime. Why can't he do it as soon as we arrive..."
"That's right..."
【Conan...】
Hearing this name from the three little ones, Qing Shuijing narrowed her eyes slightly and subconsciously picked up the tea cup in front of her and took a sip.
[These three children, Conan, and Haibara Ai...the relationship between these children seems to have always been pretty good. 】
[When we were at Clover Villa before, it was Haihara Ai who took these three children to avoid the terrorists...]
Slowly raising his head, he looked at Haiyuan Ai who was scrolling through his cell phone not far away. An idea gradually emerged in Qing Shuijing's mind. He felt more and more that his previous guess might be correct.
[These three children may know about that matter...]
"Conan, that kid, are you sick today?" Qing Shuijing suddenly asked after putting down the tea cup.
He was ready to take the bait.
"Hmm, I had a fever after coming back from the amusement park yesterday, and also infected Xiao Ai, so Xiao Ai came out wearing a mask today..." Bumi replied immediately.
"It sounds like the two children, Conan and Haiyuan, have a very good relationship?" Qing Shuijing continued to ask, smiling.
"Yes, the two of them have always had a good relationship."
"And every time we go out to play, the two of them get tired of being together..."
"They often whisper behind our backs. I always feel like there are many secrets between Conan and Xiao Ai..."
"That's right!"
"That's it..."
Nodding, Qing Shuijing pretended to be curious and asked: "These two children are so close, wouldn't their parents mind?"
"Eh?"
As if they had touched some blind spot in their thinking, the three little ones suddenly froze.
"What's wrong?" Qing Shuijing asked.
"Speaking of which, it seems that we have never met Xiao Ai's parents..." Bumi said suddenly.
"Yes, Conan's parents have obviously heard about it once before. It seems that because they have to work abroad, they entrusted uncle to take care of Conan temporarily..."
"But Xiao Ai's parents have never heard of her talking about it..."
"Is it because of something going on at home?"
"So, where does Haiyuan usually live?" Qing Shuijing continued to ask after listening to the three little ones' busy discussions.
"I live at Dr. Ali's house." The three little ones replied immediately without any hesitation.
"That's it." Qing Shuijing nodded.
"Dr. Agasa's home is at 2-chome 21, Yoneka Town. Brother Shimizu, if you have time, you can come over with sister Ayako to play. Doctor, he is very nice..."
The three little ones continued to speak positively, while Haiyuan Ai, who was not far away, still knew nothing about what was happening here and was still looking down at the phone in her hand.
"Well, I understand, thank you."
He got the information he wanted very smoothly. Qing Shuijing looked at the three of them with a smile in his eyes.
"Really, thank you very much..."
"..."
"Brother-in-law!"
At this moment, Suzuki Sonoko came over with Mao Lilan.
"Huh? Where's my sister?"
Not seeing Suzuki Ayako next to Qing Shuijing, Suzuki Sonoko asked curiously.
"Ayako is still on the phone with Mr. Suzuki, explaining the situation here to Mr. Suzuki."
Qing Shuijing said, and gestured to a pillar not far away, where Suzuki Ayako was standing, holding a mobile phone, with her back to everyone.
"Yes." Suzuki Sonoko glanced at it, nodded and replied: "After all, a murder occurred, and I might have to go back later today. I really should tell my father... woo!"
As he spoke, Suzuki Sonoko suddenly had tears in her eyes and looked like she was about to cry.
"Sure enough, I, Sonoko Suzuki, am haunted by the God of Death. No matter where I go, I encounter murder cases.
Woo hoo, if you do this you might not be able to get married in the future..."
"Don't, don't think too much, Yuanzi!" Seeing her sad look, Mao Lilan grabbed her shoulders anxiously and said loudly: "These are just coincidences! No murderer killed someone because of you, right? ?! Believe in yourself!”
"Yes, you have to believe in yourself..."
Suzuki Sonoko looked up at Mao Lilan, and a smile of relief after exhaustion suddenly appeared on her face.
"Wherever I appear, there will be a murder..."
"That's not the kind of belief I'm talking about!"
While the two were talking, Qing Shuijing took out his mobile phone and quickly typed a series of numbers on it. After confirming that the text message was sent, he put the mobile phone back into his pocket, stood up, and said to Suzuki Sonoko with a smile:
"Okay, don't believe in these weird metaphysics. They are unreliable. Classmate Maori is right. The murderer did not kill because of Sonoko."
"Brother-in-law..." Suzuki Sonoko looked at him with tears in her eyes.
Raising his hand and touching her head, Qing Shuijing walked toward the stage.
"Let's go, solve the case early, and we can go back early."
"Great!"
