The heavy rain kept falling in the early morning, falling hard.
Maori Detective Agency, after Xiaolan and Heye got up, they walked to the living room and looked out the window.
"It's really strange. It should have been sunny 100%, but..." Xiaolan looked at Sao Qingniang with confusion in her eyes.
"I think it's Xiaolan who didn't pray hard enough..." Heye said.
By chance, Conan walked to the living room, heard what the two said, looked at the window, and saw Sao Qingniang facing into the house.
Huh! It's strange. When I hung it up last night, my face was facing the window.
Conan muttered in his heart and was about to go to the bathroom when he saw Hattori Heiji walking over.
"Ha, there's nothing I can do. If it rains, I can't go." Hattori Heiji yawned, and then said with a smile, "God has the final say on the weather."
"This guy..." Conan curled his lips, suspecting that Hattori Heiji had put the sauna away and hung it up in the morning.
Xiaolan sighed helplessly and took Kazuha to wash up, while Hattori Heiji sat on the sofa, looking at the heavy rain outside the window and giggling.
After a while, he took out his cell phone and called Situ Xiu. After getting through, he said, "Master Xiu, are you up?"
"Hun Dan, what time is it now? Master, I am very sleepy. Have you considered my feelings?" A roaring roar came.
"You deserve it!" Conan rolled his eyes, turned and walked to the bathroom to wash up.
Hattori Heiji laughed dryly and said: "Master Xiu, it's almost 7 o'clock. It's getting late. The sun is almost reaching your buttocks at this time."
"It's raining heavily, and you talk to me about the sun. Have you ever thought about the feeling of heavy rain?" Situ Xiu took a sharp breath.
"..." Hattori Heiji looked confused. He still felt the sun and the heavy rain. What was the reason?
He said weakly: "Master Xiu, I don't understand what you are saying."
"Of course you don't understand, because you are too low," Situ Xiu said.
"LOW..." Hattori Heiji's mouth twitched, "Master Xiu, why are you breathing so quickly?"
"...I...I'm angry with you. Okay, I'll come over later," Situ Xiu said.
"Then I..." Before Heiji Hattori could finish his words, the person on the other end had already hung up the phone. He shook his head helplessly, feeling that Conan was better.
........
On the other side, the villa of Situ Xiu's family.
In the bedroom, big eyes stared at small eyes. Situ Xiu was a little confused. The white flowers were so close that he couldn't bear it.
"You... why are you in my room?" Situ Xiu said weakly. That's right, Koizumi Hongzi didn't know when she hugged him and slept all night.
"Ha..." Koizumi Hongzi yawned, "I don't know. I don't understand why I'm here. It's strange. What's going on? Am I sleepwalking?"
"..." Situ Xiu.
"I'm so sleepy. Just keep sleeping. I'm too lazy to move." Koizumi Hongzi said, closing her eyes and hugging Situ Xiu tightly.
Not wanting to say anything, he just wanted to close his eyes and sink in. Situ Xiu's mind went blank and he fell asleep again.
At 9 o'clock, another call came. Situ Xiu and Koizumi Hongzi got up, washed up, finished breakfast and went out.
.......
After the heavy rain, the weather suddenly cleared up, the sun shone on the ground, and the new day was warm again.
At the Maori Detective Agency, Conan and his team of five were standing downstairs, waiting for Situ Xiu's arrival.
"Wow, it's sunny!! That means Xiaolan's Qingniang is only effective now," Heye said with a smile.
"Look, what a pity." Hattori Heiji looked gloating.
You're going to get your comeuppance!
Conan put on his dead fish eyes and said hehehe...
Xiaolan looked around and said, "Why hasn't Hongzi come yet? It's been a long time."
At this moment, a car stopped on the side of the road, Situ Xiu and Koizumi Hongzi got out of the car, and Tanaka drove away.
"Hongzi, you're slow," Xiaolan said with a smile on her face.
"Sorry, I'm late. It's all Xiao Xiu's fault for not getting up." Koizumi Hongzi laughed dryly, with a faint blush on her face.
"...".
It's obvious that you didn't get up and kept holding me to sleep.
Really...blame me instead.
Situ Xiu rolled his eyes, muttered something in his mind, and said, "Sorry, I'm late."
"Okay, okay, you go shopping, we are going to investigate the case." Hattori Heiji walked over and pulled Situ Xiu away.
"Then let's go!" Xiaolan, Heye, and Koizumi Hongzi waved their hands, then turned and left.
The three girls left, and the four of them, Kogoro Mouri, Conan, Heiji Hattori, and Shu Shu, walked in the other direction.
After walking for a while, Mouri Kogoro said: "By the way, where will we meet at what time?"
"It was at Morokaku's house, Abeido-machi 4-chome, about 4 o'clock in the afternoon," Hattori Heiji recalled.
"4 o'clock in the afternoon?" The corners of the three people's mouths twitched slightly. Damn, it's only after 10 o'clock, and there are still more than 5 hours until 4 o'clock in the afternoon.
Hattori Heiji also realized this and said with a dry smile: "How about we go have a drink and discuss the arson case."
"This is the only way," Mouri Kogoro said helplessly.
A group of four people went to a coffee shop to discuss the arson case. Situ Xiu told the news he got last night and the results of the analysis, hiding the matter of the bug.
"Superstitious?" Mouri Kogoro pinched his chin and frowned: "This possibility cannot be ruled out. Some people are stupid and can be easily fooled."
"..." Hattori Heiji and Situ Xiu looked at Mouri Kogoro strangely. They had received so many injections and didn't even know that they were being played with by a child. How dare you say this.
Seeing the behavior of the two people, Conan forced a smile: "Yes, this must be superstition, uncle, should we investigate those two people?"
"No rush, just finish your coffee first and then go." Mouri Kogoro calmly picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip.
"Mr. Genda was present at all three arson incidents. If he was not the arsonist, he was probably instructed by others to go to the fire scene," Hattori Heiji said.
Situ Xiu said nothing. The analysis that should be done was almost completed. Without new clues, there would be no progress in the case.
At noon, Mouri Kogoro drove them to the building at Aipido Station, but they did not find the fortune teller Gondo Itsuko there. Others said she usually opened at night.
Next, there was no address for Feng Shui master Soga Sofu, so the group of four had no choice but to go to Genda Takashi's antique store. The clerk said that Genda Takashi had gone nearby to distribute product manuals and gift key chains, but they didn't meet him again.
"Is there a red horse on that key chain?" Hattori Heiji asked.
"Yes, that is the store manager's favorite work, the Guan Yu statue." The clerk paused and continued: "However, because of the bad reviews, the store manager plans to change the key chain."
"That is to say, this thing is not sold on the market, it is only available here." Conan's eyes lit up.
"Yeah" the clerk nodded.
"That's right, it must be him. Now the evidence is conclusive," Mouri Kogoro said confidently.
Situ Xiu frowned. Hearing what the clerk meant, people in the streets and alleys had this gift. Everyone would want free things, so the chance of Xuantian Takashi committing a crime would be reduced.
A group of four people left the antique shop and did not find Takashi Genda nearby, so they went to have a meal and then went to Morokaku's house in 4-chome, Cupido Town.
Half an hour later.
"This is it, I finally found it."
Hattori Heiji looked at the Zhukaku written on the wall at the door, raised his hand to look at his watch, and then said: "No, it's 30 minutes later than the scheduled time. What should I do?"
"It doesn't matter, it's only 30 minutes," Mouri Kogoro said.
"But, Mr. Kusukawa said that person is very serious about time, so he must not be too late."
After saying that, Hattori Heiji walked to the door and was about to knock on the door. When he saw that the door was not closed, he opened it and looked inside.
"Hello......."
Before he finished speaking, Hattori Heiji saw a man and a woman talking in the room.
"I'm not here to make a hard sell... I just brought the hanging scroll calligraphy and paintings and antique catalog descriptions that our store sells," the man said weakly.
"Didn't I just say it?" The woman was a bit forceful, "I'm not interested in those dusty rags."
"In that case, I'll put the catalog description and the key chain for a prosperous business here. If you change your mind, just ask our store..." The man handed over the gift, but was interrupted before he finished speaking. .
"Hmph, don't bother." The woman slapped the gift out of the man's hand, and then said angrily: "I'm not poor enough to take advantage of a key chain."
"Ah..." The man watched the small gift fall to the ground.
"Okay, please go back quickly," the woman yelled.
"I'm really sorry..." The man sighed, squatted down to pick up the gift, turned around and left dejectedly.
Xuanta Takashi!
Situ Xiu looked at the man walking by, and he couldn't admit that he was the man from yesterday. He didn't expect to meet him here, and the other person didn't seem to notice him.
"We are..." Hattori Heiji introduced to the woman that we were entrusted by Kusukawa.
When the woman heard this, she looked a little impatient and said bluntly: "That matter is unnecessary. Maybe I am too nervous. You can leave."
"Ah!" Hattori Heiji and Mouri Kogoro were stunned, obviously not expecting this result.
The woman didn't want to be seen, so the four of them had no choice but to leave. When they walked to the gate, Conan said, "It's strange. She asked the detective, but she said she was too neurotic."
"Well, I think there must be something wrong with that aunt..." Hattori Heiji agreed.
The four of them stood at the door for a while, planning to go back to the car. At this moment, a middle-aged man walked over and entered Zhukaku's house directly.
"Ah, teacher, you're here so early."
Situ Xiu was very happy when he saw the woman's face. This kind of happiness was very unusual, as if there was some kind of relationship between the two.
The four of them stood next to the walled door and looked inside. At the door of the house, the woman happily pointed to the vase on the table in the entrance hall and said, "Look, there is a vase placed at the door as the teacher said."
"Yes, the entrance hall is the entrance that represents luck. It is very good from the perspective of Feng Shui to decorate it with pottery ornaments in any direction," the middle-aged man said with a smile.
"Feng Shui master?" Situ Xiu, Conan, Hattori Heiji, and Mori Kogoro looked at each other. Nowadays, people are so superstitious about Feng Shui.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
The four people turned their heads and saw a woman with heavy makeup standing at the door. The woman glanced at them and walked into Zhujiao's house.
"What are you doing again! Didn't I tell you not to come again, sister!!"
"Ryoko, don't be angry. I'm a little unlucky this month. 100,000, no, 50,000 is fine. Lend me some."
"If you have bad luck, give yourself a divination!! Change your destiny."
The woman closed the door with a cold face. The woman with heavy makeup yelled a few words and left helplessly.
"Soothsayer?" The four of them looked at each other. The woman was so superstitious about Feng Shui masters, but she disdained fortune telling. The two of them seemed to be sisters.
Back in the car, Situ Xiu revealed the identity of the man who recommended the gift just now, Xuantian Takashi.
"What, that man is Xuanda Takashi?" The three of them were shocked. Is this a coincidence?
"This time we are here to find out if there is any further connection between the Morokaku family and the arson case. Just a few people who are most likely suspects have appeared. Let's wait here. Maybe something will happen later." Hattori Heiji said at the corner of his mouth Raised slightly.
"The other two people are not necessarily the fortune tellers and Feng Shui masters we are looking for." Mouri Kogoro shook his head.
"Uncle, although I have never seen those two people, I can be 100% sure that they are those two people."
Situ Xiu glanced at the three gods of death. With you here, the impossible becomes possible.
Looking at this look, Hattori Heiji and Conan understood instantly and looked at Situ Xiu with dead eyes.
What the hell, it’s none of our business, this is all Uncle Maori’s fault, don’t take us with you.
The confused Mouri Kogoro wondered: "Why are you so sure?"
"Intuition" Situ Xiu said seriously.
Hattori Heiji and Conan both chuckled and continued to look at Situ Xiu with dead eyes.
"Master, those two people are doing something shameful in the room."
When Geng Gui's words came to his ears, Situ Xiu was slightly startled. He just heard the call "teacher". Those two people didn't seem to be a couple. Was this an affair?
He suddenly understood why the woman drove away several people one after another. It was because the old house was on fire and someone needed to put out the fire, so the detectives who were commissioned had to drive them away. There is nothing more important than watering a dry field.
"Uncle, I think you should park your car elsewhere, because if the arsonist sees a car here, he may change his target."
After saying this, Situ Xiu opened the door and got out of the car, ran to Zhujiao's house, looked around, and walked in.
"What did he do?" Conan wondered.
After listening to Situ Xiu's words, Mouri Kogoro moved the car somewhere else. From inside the car, he could see the gate of Morokaku's house.
"Master, you can see this way from a window in the yard."
That's right, Situ Xiu heard what Geng Gui said and came to see it. He was just confirming whether it was true.
"Hmm...Ah...Hmm...Hmm...".
Situ Xiu glanced out the window. He couldn't stand the fiery scene with the sun setting over the mountains anymore, and then turned around and left.
Back in the car, Situ Xiu sent a message to Miwako Sato to inquire about the Morokaku family.
Xuanda Takashi appeared here, and Hattori Heiji received the commission here. The two coincidences are not coincidences.
Maybe, Xuanda Takashi came here after listening to someone's words, so does the arsonist have any grudges with the Zhukaku family, or is there any connection with the previous three fire cases.
