Mao Lilan, Toyama and Ye were afraid of encountering the devil dog again, so they stayed at home and prepared dinner with Inufushi Yukihime.
On the other side, on the way to the tomb.
As soon as Ye Geng drove, he listened to Hattori Heiji asking Yamamura Cao about the deceased Inufusaki's cell phone, and found the details of the call record from Inufushi's house.
I learned that it was 2 hours before falling off the cliff.
It is almost certain that the murderer is among the four heirs staying at home at this time.
"It's exactly what I thought..."
A confident smile appeared on Hattori Heiji's face: "If you deliberately delayed the return of Inu Fuzaki, and then waited until it got dark, then sent a dog to ambush her from the road, you can still do this kind of murder even if no one is at the scene. .”
"Yes, as long as you train the dog regularly, you can create similar effects even if you are not present."
Conan added: "Including Miss Yukihime who was with us at the time, there is also a lot of suspicion."
So, you just left your girlfriend over there? If it was just to fish out the suspect, then Gin would really give a thumbs up when he saw it...
Ye Gengyi dispersed his thoughts for a while, but he was too lazy to comment too much on their approach.
Drive the car under the cliff in the safest and fastest way.
The flashlight beam swept around the tombstone.
Soon, they found the inconspicuous marble near the almost black and completely coagulated blood.
Ye Gengyi took out a handkerchief and wrapped it up, then put it in his left hand without any expectations... Sure enough, the mark on his palm showed no reaction.
"First there were small steel balls and table tennis balls, and now it's this marble. I really don't understand. What is the murderer trying to express?"
Mouri Kogoro stretched his neck to observe for a while, then scratched his head inexplicably.
"Well..."
Yamamura thought for a moment: "Oh, by the way, talking about dogs and marbles..."
"Hey...don't you think of some boring joke again?" Mouri Kogoro couldn't help but interrupt.
"..."
The expression on Yamamura Cao's face was stiff and he just kept silent.
Hattori Heiji asked: "Even if it's a cold joke, please tell me quickly."
"Yes, yes, although it may not be useful, it may provide unexpected clues." Conan didn't know if he was deliberately attacking from the side.
Some casual words solved my doubts?
Ye Geng wrapped a handful of marbles into a handkerchief and put them directly into his pocket, continuing to act as an outsider.
With these detectives here, he didn't need to worry about solving the case.
For him, even if the probability of a 'devil dog' is less than 10%, since the whole incident has progressed to this point, he should finally see with his own eyes what species the devil dog is.
Here, Yamamura Cao, who had been criticized one after another, immediately became arrogant. No matter how many people asked, he just stopped talking about what he knew.
Maori Kogoro curled his lips and immediately asked Ye Gengyi to take him to the top of the mountain to see the scene in the photo.
At the same time, Inubushi's house was in the courtyard without lights.
Maori Lan and Toyama Kazuha, who came to feed the Akita dog with dog food, directly encountered a demon dog whose body was burning with flames.
They hid back in the house with lingering fear, called Hattori Heiji and informed them of the situation.
…
The group drove back to Inubushi's house again.
The burning traces left by the 'Demon Dog' when it stepped across the yard were exactly the same as those near the cliff.
Suddenly appeared and disappeared again.
"This is definitely psychological deception! Haven't similar things happened before?"
Mouri Kogoro's eyes lit up, "The murderer first used the story of being cursed by a dog in the past to create psychological hints, making people think that the devil dog really existed, and then smeared fluorescent materials on the dog's body. Objects that usually do not glow will suddenly glow. It makes people think it is burning!"
"Huh? It makes sense..."
Hattori Heiji said softly. He was a little disapproving at first, but then he suddenly felt that this reasoning was completely logical and couldn't help but ask: "Have you encountered similar incidents before?"
He wanted to learn from it, and maybe he could also check for mistakes and fill in the gaps.
"Uh...what is it?" Mouri Kogoro said that he had a bad memory.
"Kaitou Kidd, teleport."
Ye Gengyi said nonchalantly: "However, that reasoning can only complete part of the method. In the end, we still didn't figure out how he moved instantly."
Now that the topic has reached this point, even if he doesn't mention it, I believe that a certain detective boy can still recall the scene of eating wind on the top of a building.
The dead memories are attacking me... However, Kaitou Kid should have appeared in that building at that time... Conan was also in a daze for a moment.
Speaking of which, although Kaitou Kidd was not caught that time, the reasoning behind why the man in white clothes suddenly disappeared into the night in order to see through the opponent's tactics was what he told his uncle and Saradachi-nii afterwards...
But when that theory is applied to this "Devil Dog" incident, there are still many things that are inconsistent with common sense. Could it be that there is some mechanism that can control the flames on the "Devil Dog" so that it burns and burns within a specified time? Go out?
A few people are still thinking.
On the side, Yamamura Cao’s brain circuit was extremely abnormal and he said in surprise:
"Ah?! Expert Ye, do you mean that the 'devil dog' is Kaitou Kidd in disguise?!"
"Oh, it's possible."
Ye Gengyi said irresponsibly: "I remember, didn't he claim that he can disguise anything?"
"Eh?! Then shouldn't we contact the Metropolitan Police Department as soon as possible!" Yamamura Cao obviously believed it.
Everyone: "..."
I am really worried about the future of Gunma Prefecture...
Being interrupted like this, Mao Lilan suddenly felt that the demon dog she had seen before was not so scary. She took a deep breath and added what she could not explain clearly:
"No! That's definitely not some fluorescent powder. He Ye and I both saw it. The flames on the 'devil dog' were really burning in the air!"
"That's it!"
Yuan Shan and Ye used the light of the flashlight to shine deeper into the yard, "Look, there are more than just here, the footprints came from there... Although Xiaolan and I were frightened by the devil dog and ran into the house, But then I was a little worried about the Akita dog who was alone outside, so I ran out again within a minute.”
As she spoke, she led everyone along the escape route they had taken after encountering the demon dog.
The devil dog's footprints were arranged in groups of two very regularly, until they reached a piece of grass that was a little messy. It was as if it had been cut off by something, leaving no trace of burning on it.
