The four people upstairs cleaned up and went to a nearby sushi restaurant for lunch.
"You really don't need help?" Koshizui Nanatsuki confirmed to Mao Lilan.
"Don't worry," Mao Lilan smiled. "When my father was a policeman, he and Mr. Takeoka used to investigate cases together. I think he is very motivated now. Just leave this matter to them."
"Too slow, Tanaka!" a chef in the open kitchen urged, "Isn't it cut yet?"
"Ah, sorry!" a young chef said hurriedly.
Conan looked over curiously, and was stunned when he saw the red kitchen knife in the young chef's hand.
Chi Feichi also looked over and recognized the kitchen knife in the other person's hand.
It's the kitchen knife that the old lady gave to her grandson Shota Tanaka in the incident with the mountain demon granny.
At first, Shota Tanaka lied that he went to Tokyo to learn cooking, but he had plastic surgery to look like a handsome boy and changed his name to Kahara Fuga to work as a cowherd. It seems that after the death of the eldest lady, Shota Tanaka restored his face to its original appearance, and I changed my name back to my original name, and just like the old lady promised, I really came to learn cooking.
"What's wrong?" Mao Lilan looked over there curiously.
"It's nothing," Chi Feichi looked away, "The cooking skills of the chefs in this restaurant don't look bad."
Conan also gave up telling the truth and said with a smile, "The ingredients look very fresh too!"
Now that people are starting a new life, don't talk about things like deceiving your family or having plastic surgery to become a cowherd. It would be bad if people talk about you behind your back.
Tanaka Shota has been busy in the open kitchen and did not notice that there was an acquaintance at the table in the corner.
After the four of them had lunch, they didn't stay much longer.
It was summer. After dinner with my friends in the afternoon, we strolled to the street along the shade of the trees. We talked about our recent arrangements. After we parted, we each went about our own business. Life seemed to have become leisurely and peaceful.
But the tranquility did not last long.
The next day, Kogoro Mouri once again occupied the front page of the newspaper. It was not just the front page of a newspaper. The content and headlines were also more exciting than the previous day.
A series of mistakes by famous detectives led to two suicides...
Insisting on committing suicide, Mouri Kogoro killed another person again...
Being suspected of being a murder suspect, Arai Kyousuke committed suicide. Should Mouri Kogoro be responsible for this...
When Chi Fei arrived downstairs at the Maori Detective Agency late, he saw his teacher standing downstairs on the phone.
Mouri Kogoro turned to look at Chi Feichi who had pulled over, then looked up at the sign of the office, and said solemnly, "Officer Megure, I am Moori. As of today, I have decided to remove my Shop sign……"
At the top of the stairs, Koshimizu Nanatsuki, who had arrived one step earlier, stood together with Mouri Ran and Conan, looking at Mouri Kogoro with his back to them in astonishment.
Chi Feichi got out of the car and walked forward to join the trio who were secretly watching.
Mouri Kogoro put away his cell phone, turned around and looked at the four people standing behind him. In the end, he said nothing, walked past a group of people with his head lowered, and went upstairs without hesitation.
"dad……"
Mao Lilan looked worriedly at Mao Li Kogoro's back, led the way upstairs, and whispered, "He has been like this since last night. He can't cheer up for anything."
Chi Feichi turned to Mao Li and said, "If it was last night, we could have stopped the report temporarily."
"I thought about calling you, but dad didn't agree," Mao Lilan sighed. "He said that the death of Mr. Urama and Mr. Arai was a fact. These were two lives. Even if the newspaper report was temporarily blocked, There will always be people talking and caring, so I don’t need to cause you any more trouble.”
Chi Feichi looked back and said, "That's right. What the teacher cares about is not what others say."
What Mouri Kogoro cares about is whether he killed those two people!
Koshizui Nanatsuki frowned and said softly, "There are indeed doubts about Mr. Urano's suicide, and some of Mr. Arai's previous behaviors are also very suspicious. How could it be..."
"On the night of Mr. Urano's death, around eight o'clock, Mr. Arai's next-door neighbor heard him making a loud phone call at home. He looked over and saw him losing his temper over a fax at home," Conan said solemnly, " In other words, Mr. Arai has an alibi, and he cannot be the murderer of Mr. Urano. Yesterday morning, Uncle Kogoro and Mr. Takeoka went to find Mr. Arai, and the police found him around 4 p.m. Hanged himself at home."
"Reporters have been paying close attention to Mr. Urano's incident," Mao Lilan said helplessly. "Yesterday evening, when my father came out of Mr. Arai's apartment, there were many reporters outside who had heard the news gathered around the downstairs, facing questions from those reporters. , he can’t explain it at all.”
On the second floor, Kogoro Mouri slumped on his office chair, his head tilted back, his eyes blankly in a daze.
Mao Lilan asked the three of them to sit down casually and went to the tea room to call Fei Yingli.
Chi Feichi walked behind the office chair and squatted down, looking closely at his teacher's upside-down face.
He wasn't that decadent at all. When he first came over, the look on his teacher's face clearly seemed like he was thinking.
When he squatted down to observe, he became surprised and confused...
Mouri Kogoro was startled by Chi Feichi's cold face that suddenly approached him, and he looked suspiciously at the eyes that reflected his figure.
Those purple eyes were devoid of any personal emotion, transparent and clear, like a mirror reflecting him.
To put it simply, his disciple stared at him with emotionless eyes.
What does this kid want to do?
Chi Feichi silently stared into Maori Kogoro's eyes.
Since he's not that decadent, why does his teacher look like this?
Pretending to be depressed was probably not to trick his wife into coming over. All he could think of was to make others relax their guard.
If someone is trying to harm Mouri Kogoro, and seeing Moori Kogoro depressed and decadent, he will probably be happy to let down his guard. But if someone is taking advantage of and guarding against Moori Detective, and seeing the famous detective like this, he will also be unkind to Moori Kogoro. Be on guard.
Maori Kogoro stared quietly into Chi Feichi's eyes.
What does his apprentice want to do?
Isn't this kid sick?
As a teacher, should he cheer up and be a good example?
But he had his own ideas and didn't want to act rashly.
The two faces of the master and the disciple were on a horizontal line, staring into each other's eyes. Conan and Koshimizu Nanatsuki were sitting on the sofa, looking suspiciously at each other.
"Mr. Mori..."
At the door, Takagi Sheba, Chiba and Chusheng arrived, breaking the eerie silence in the room.
"Huh?" Takagi Wataru stepped forward and looked curiously at Kogoro Mouri who was lying down and Chi Feichi who was squatting behind the office chair. He cast questioning looks at Conan, Nanatsuki Koshimizu and Maori Lan at the door of the tea room.
What's happening here?
The other three: "..."
Don't ask them, they don't know.
Chi Fei came back to his senses late, looked at the confused look of Maori Kogoro in front of him, smiled slightly, and said softly, "You have a good rest, but don't think about leaving everything to us."
Takagi Wataru, Chiba Kazunobu: "!"
Mr. Chi is so gentle that he seems to have been faked!
Koshizu Nanatsuki: "!"
Although Brother Xiao Qi spoke in such a gentle tone, which made her think of the previous things again, and it always seemed to have a sick and twisted meaning, but thinking about Brother Xiao Qi's usually cold face, always calling her more and more... ...She suddenly felt a little envious of Mr. Mori who had the accident.
Mao Lilan: "!"
Thinking about Brother Chi's usually cold response to her like 'What's the matter' and 'I know', she suddenly felt that her father was being treated surprisingly well.
Conan: "!"
Thinking about Chi Feichi's usually disgusting reactions to him such as 'why are you here', 'why are you here', and 'what are you doing here', he suddenly felt that the uncle was worth it this time.
Then, uncle, look at them who are worried about this, and you should cheer up...
Mouri Kogoro's half-moon eyes raised his hand and waved it weakly, "You go away..."
other people:"……"
Chi Feichi didn't pay attention. He got up and returned to the sofa. He calmly greeted Takagi Wataru, Chiba Hexin and said, "Officer Takagi, Officer Chiba, please sit down."
"Ah, okay..." After Takagi Wataru sat down, he put the printed documents he had brought on the table and turned to look at Kogoro Mouri, who was leaning down decadently. "I heard from Officer Megure that Mr. Mouri wants to close down his business. Chiba and I are worried, so we came over to see if there is anything we need help with."
Mao Lilan came forward with the tea, bent down and put it on the table, smiling happily, "Thank you, I'm really sorry for making everyone worry."
"Mr. Mori judged that Mr. Urano's suicide was suspicious. I don't think there is a problem with this." Koshizui Nanatsuki thought for a moment and raised his eyes to confirm with Chi Feichi who was sitting opposite. "Mr. Arai did leak the case to reporters. This is true." You can be sure, right?"
Chi Feichi looked at Koshikoshi Nanatsuki and nodded to confirm, "Yes, the newspaper has no reason to lie."
When something happens, she can try to calm down and organize her thoughts seriously. This kind of female detective has a very attractive style.
Koshizui Nanatsuki felt that Chi Feichi's gaze on her seemed sharper and more piercing than before. She couldn't help but avoid it and looked at Takagi Wataru, "Officer Takagi, Mr. Arai has an alibi. I heard Conan say it, but Is it really impossible for him to kill people? I mean, is it possible that there is some trick in time?"
"That's why we're here," Takagi Wataru took out a folded map from the printed manuscript, opened it, spread it out on the table, and pointed to a point on the map, "This is Mr. Urano's address. According to Mr. Mori said that at eight o'clock in the evening on the day of the incident, Mr. Urano called him from home to ask him about the investigation. Around nine o'clock, Mr. Urano committed suicide in the woods here... Mr. Arai was confirmed by his neighbors. He is at home at eight o'clock in the evening. It takes at least half an hour to drive from his residence to Mr. Urano's house. The woods are in the other direction. It also takes an hour to drive from Mr. Urao's house to the woods. Mr. Arai is at his home at eight o'clock. If you do, you will definitely not be able to get to the woods before or after nine o'clock."
"In addition, Mr. Arai lost his temper at the fax that day because in the serial mystery he was responsible for, the murderer used a time machine to go back to the past to kill people." Chiba Kazunobu put the printed copy of the mystery on the map and said with a smile, "He called If you complain, readers will not accept it. The time of the fax, the address of the fax machine, and the time of his phone call are all correct as told by the neighbor."
"Then it's absolutely impossible for Mr. Arai to kill anyone," Mao Lilan sighed, "right?"
"At present, it seems that it is indeed the case." Takagi Wataru nodded.
"Don't worry about what the reports outside say, let's just say what we know for sure," Koshimizu Nanatsuki stretched out his hand and pointed to the place on the map where Urao Ryozo's body was found, and asked seriously, "Mr. Urao is so far away from home, Taking a flashlight to commit suicide in the dark woods caused so much trouble because the possibility of homicide is very high. So, where is the murderer? If the murderer is not Mr. Arai, where is the murderer of Mr. Urano?"
Mao Lilan, Takagi Shiba, Chiba and Shin felt a chill down their backs.
If Mr. Urano was killed, then there would always be a dark shadow, quietly hiding behind the chaotic arguments, which seemed to be able to disappear little by little with the turmoil in the outside world.
When Detective Yueshui suddenly asked him, there was an atmosphere of terror in the room.
