Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 1385 Excellent matching mechanism!
Sera Masumi suddenly became so excited that Qin Zhibo, who was standing beside her, was a little unable to react.

Although we haven't known each other for long, I feel that Sera Masumi is generally a gentle and easy-going person.

He had indeed never seen or imagined that Shiliang was so "furious".

Can't afford to offend, can't afford to offend...

Qin Zhibo was very tactful and moved aside half a body length to let the two girls battle on their own.

Sera Masumi angrily grabbed the collar of Koshimizu Nanatsuki's sailor uniform and shouted with full force: "Taking the crime of murder for revenge, is this what your best friend wants to see!"

"Even if you can escape legal punishment, the guilt of murder will still be on your shoulders for the rest of your life and will never be erased!"

Nanatsuki Koshimizu stared at Shira in a daze, then curled her lips and said softly, "I won't bear this for the rest of my life..."

"Do you want to die?"

Sera Masumi put one foot directly on the low table and glared down at the girl in front of him.
"So you are a stupid girl!"

"Why do you have to cling to the past? Is there nothing in this world worth your nostalgia?"

"Your family and other friends! Why don't you think more about these people?"

Nanatsuki Koshimizu was obviously stunned for a moment, then she said, "My parents divorced when I was very young..."

"Friends too..."

Before she could finish, Sera Masumi got close to her face and yelled, "Then I'll be your friend!"

"As your new friend, I command you not to die! And not to do anything stupid!"

"Stupid girl! Do you understand!?"

On the opposite side, Nanatsuki Koshimizu's pupils widened, her ears were buzzing, and her brain was so shocked by the strong impact that she was speechless for a while.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Sera Masumi lifted her collar even harder and raised his voice even louder.

"I didn't hear your answer!"

Nanatsuki Koshimizu, who was beaten to a pulp, was completely dumbfounded. She opened her lips slightly and nodded dully.

Seeing this, Sera Masumi nodded with satisfaction and let go of her hand.

"That's pretty much it~"

"Cough, cough, cough..."

"It seems like my voice is damaged..."

Qin Zhibo, who was standing next to him, quickly and considerately handed over a glass of water.

Boss, water.

……

Then, the room was silent for a while.

Sera Masumi's voice was damaged from shouting, and he drank several glasses of water before the pain eased a little, but his voice was still a little hoarse.

"that……"

"I'm sorry, it's all because of me that your throat is like this..."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu handed the cup of water to Sera with both hands, her face a little flushed.

Shiliang took the water cup with one hand, waved the other hand nonchalantly, and said hoarsely: "It's okay, just rest for a while~"

Qin Zhibo looked at the two people whose relationship suddenly became a little subtle, and didn't understand how the plot was developing.

However, it seems that Koshimizu Nanatsuki has been convinced by Sera, but in the long run, it may not really work.

After all, people's resentment is difficult to dispel with just a few words, and when the night is quiet, it is inevitable to think back to the past.

There is an old Chinese saying that the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it.

If you want to completely resolve Nanatsuki Koshimizu's emotional knot and prevent a recurrence, you still need to make the "murderer" pay the price.

Of course, this price is not the price of life.

From Nanatsuki Koshimizu's reaction just now, Qin Zhibo already had a rough idea of ​​her motives.

The maid who committed suicide in the Lavender Villa case was her friend. She was invited by the maid to investigate the case a year ago.

However, half a year ago, Junya Tokatsu made a wrong conclusion through collecting evidence, causing the maid to commit suicide due to the pressure.

Although Tokatsu Junya is hateful, his biggest sin is that he is unaware of it and uses "going against the grain" to gain fame.

In fact, if those screws had been placed outside the window of the crime scene, they would definitely have shown signs of rust in half a year. There was no reason for him not to notice this.

But in order to gain fame and satisfy his vanity, he concealed this matter.

Since everything he did was for fame, the best punishment for him would be to completely destroy his reputation.

As for how to do it specifically, we still need to plan...

At this time, Qin Zhibo lowered his eyebrows slightly and saw the "Detective Koshien Project" on the table.

Eh?
Isn't there a ready-made method for this?

A perfect plan emerged in Qin Zhibo's mind.

……

After leaving Nanatsuki Koshimizu's apartment, Tomohiro Qin and Sera went to the Nichimi TV building again.

Qin Zhibo once again called Mizunashi Rena down and asked if Nichimi TV was currently producing any mystery-type programs.

It would be best if the show required a famous detective to be a guest.

Rena Mizunashi had just helped investigate "Detective Koshien", so she actually knew about such a program.

"That show is called 'Unsolved Cases Revealed'. It's a small segment of a late-night show. The content of the show is basically to invite famous detectives to uncover the mysteries of past unsolved cases..."

"A great revelation of a cold case?"

Qin Zhibo thought about it and realized that he had never seen such a program before.

Mizunashi Rena continued to introduce: "I heard that the director of that program is going to invite the famous detective Maori Kogoro and the soul detective Horida Kaito to co-host a program."

"If the show gets a big response, the station might adjust the show to prime time..."

Qin Zhibo nodded in understanding. If we talk about the level of excitement, then the content he arranged must be exciting enough.

As for Kogoro Mouri, the usually rookie and occasionally confused detective who explodes, it doesn't matter if he doesn't come.

It's a pity that the Grim Reaper is following the elementary school student around, causing a murder and dirtying the TV station's land.

"Where is that director now? I need to talk to him."

"Mr. Guli's words..."

Mizunashi Reina glanced at the watch on her wrist. "It's not lunch time yet, he should still be in the office..."

……

With the introduction of Rena Mizunashi, Qin Zhibo met the TV director in the reception room.

This is a fat man wearing glasses, with a chubby face, big eyes and raised eyebrows, making his face quite funny.

Although he was not wearing work clothes, he was a serious director of Nichiuri TV.

"This is the famous detective Qin Zhibo."

"This is Mr. Kouri Sanpei."

"Then you two can chat, I'm going to work first."

After Rena Mizunashi left, the director named Furuguri Sanpei immediately shook hands with Qin Zhibo excitedly.

"I didn't expect that a great detective would take the initiative to find a small director like me and say that he wanted to participate in my show. I am really humbled..."

"Eh? Who is this?"

Guli Sanpei looked at Shira Masumi beside him and asked if he didn't understand. Qin Zhibo smiled and introduced, "This is my disciple, Shira Masumi."

"Hello~"

Masumi Sera greeted with a smile and a slightly hoarse voice.

Guli Sanpei also smiled back, "Hello, young man."

"Ah? Uncle, I'm not a boy, I'm a real girl!"

As he spoke, Shira pinched his slender waist and deliberately straightened his chest to show off his chest which was not as big as Gu Li Sanping's.

"Ah? You're a girl?"

Gu Li Canping was stunned for a moment, then he scratched his head apologetically, "I'm sorry, I heard your voice and the way you were dressed, and I thought you were a boy..."

Shiliang waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's okay, people often misunderstand me, I'm used to it~"

Qin Zhibo looked at Sera who was eager to explain this time, and wondered why he didn't explain in Koshimizu Nanatsuki's apartment just now.

I bet 100 yen that Nanatsuki Koshimizu definitely misunderstood her real gender.

"By the way, Mr. Qin, I heard from Miss Shui Wu that you came to me to participate in my show?"

"um, yes."

Qin Zhibo nodded and said seriously: "I can do without the performance fee, but I have some personal requirements regarding the content of the show."

"Require?"

Gu Li Canping frowned, "What kind of request is that?"

Qin Zhibo: "The cases discussed in the program will be replaced by the cases I designate, and the so-called soul detective participating in the program will also be replaced by someone I select."

Hearing this, Guli Canping looked troubled and hesitated.

"Mr. Qin, in fact, the plan for that episode has been finalized, and Mr. Horita has already accepted the invitation."

"So I'm afraid these requests you mentioned..."

Hearing this, Qin Zhibo was ready to relax the conditions, so he asked, "Which case are you going to discuss in your plan?"

Koguri Sanpei replied: "It was the case of Haneda Hiroshi 17 years ago..."

As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Zhibo and Sera Masumi's expressions changed, and their eyes instantly became extremely serious.

Qin Zhibo will not be mentioned, as he is naturally aware of the importance of this case.

Although Masumi Sera has never met Hiroji Haneda in person due to her age, she knows that this case is the reason why her family has never been able to reunite.

"What happened to the Haneda Hiroshi case? What do you want to discuss?!"

Shira suddenly took a step forward and became excited.

This startled Guli Sanpei, who replied hesitantly, "We are discussing the murderer who killed Haneda Hiroshi..."

"The murderer?" Shiliang's pupils dilated. "Who is it?"

Kokuri Sanpei shook his head and murmured, "I don't know either, but Mr. Horita plans to summon the soul of Haneda Hiroshi and then ask who the murderer is..."

"Psychic?"

Hearing this ridiculous word, Sera, who had been very serious, frowned and began to doubt his ears.

Qin Zhibo, who was standing next to him, suddenly realized that he also had the ability to communicate with spirits.

However, Hiroji Haneda died 17 years ago. His body had long since disappeared, his soul had long since entered reincarnation, and the place of death was far away from Japan. It was impossible for him to communicate successfully with the spirits with his current level of spiritualism.

Qin Zhibo asked, "Is he really psychic?"

Kouri Sanpei shook his head in confusion, "I don't know either, but that's what Mr. Horita said..."

And Masumi Sera turned his head with some surprise and looked at Qin Zhibo beside him.

Because Qin Zhibo's tone seemed to acquiesce that "psychic communication" is real...

"In that case, let me talk to the soul detective."

"As long as I can convince him to change the topic of the show and add another detective, that'll be all right, right?"

Gu Lisanping nodded hesitantly, "In principle, this is the case..."

"But what is the reason why you are willing to go to such lengths?"

Hearing this, Qin Zhibo smiled.

"It's just to punish a villain who is seeking fame and reputation..."

……

After getting the address of the soul detective from Furuli Sanpei, Qin Zhibo and Shiliang drove there immediately.

In order to facilitate the production of the program, the program crew provided a room for Kaito Horita in a hotel not far from the TV station.

Qin Zhibo had always heard rumors about this soul detective, but had never studied him in detail.

So on the way to the hotel, Qin Zhibo asked Shiliang to check it online.

Upon investigation, it turned out that this soul detective had already been disgraced for fraud.

Kaito Horita once paid people to give false testimonies claiming they had seen missing persons.

After the incident was exposed, he was criticized by major media and disappeared for a while.

As for his ability to "channel" the souls of the dead and tell some secrets that no one else knew except the dead, it was also because he had conducted investigations beforehand.

His truly valuable "achievement" was finding some unidentified skeletons in the deep mountains and forests.

That's why Kaito Horida boasted that he had psychic abilities, which is why he was able to find these skeletons.

"So he's also a notorious fellow..."

Shira, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at the content on his phone with disdain in his eyes.

When Qin Zhibo thought about the part about finding the skeleton, he felt that this was because Conan was not present at the scene.

If Conan were there, when Kaito Horida found the skeleton, he would definitely be the first person suspected of being the culprit.

However, judging from his other actions, Kaito Horida is indeed a "Muggle" without any magic power, who relies on deception to attract attention.

Although it is unlikely that the bones found in the deep mountains were the bodies of people he killed, they are probably the bodies of suicide victims he found somewhere.

Even Ryohei Matsumoto can teach the corpse of a suicide victim to be reborn as a human being again, and it is estimated that Kaito Horita will do the same.

It seems that this guy is also a person who uses the name of detective to gain fame and reputation.

You can put him together with Junya Tokitsu, what an excellent matching mechanism!
At this moment, Sera looked at the content on the mobile phone and suddenly made a shocked sound.

"Eh?"

"Isn't this the director uncle from the TV station just now?"

"what are you saying?"

Qin Zhibo turned his head and looked at the phone screen that Shiliang was showing.

There was a photo on it, showing a fat man and an elderly woman walking out of the police station.

The caption on the photo is, "The soul detective has done a great job! The identity of the unknown person's skeleton has been found out!"

Sera took back his phone and briefly summarized the content of the news.

The general content is that the soul detective Kaito Horida discovered a buried female body in the suburbs of Tokyo through "spiritual communication".

After police investigation, it was confirmed that the female corpse was a 27-year-old employee of a Tokyo company, and her family also claimed the body.

Next, the police will investigate the case on the premise of homicide...

Qin Zhibo looked at the chubby man crying in the photo and realized that it was the TV director Gu Li Sanping whom he had just met.
