People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 19 Suspect

A murder has occurred.

Thanks to Kogoro Mouri, no, it's Conan's physique of the God of Death.

Xiang Yuanguang followed Maori Kogoro and others with a sad face.

Detective Maori was afraid that others would not know he was coming, so he pushed away the crowd of onlookers and shouted.

"I'm the famous detective Maori Kogoro. Is there a murder here?"

"It's okay. Leave it to the famous detective Maori Kogoro and there will be absolutely no problem."

The onlookers made way and talked in low voices.

Although Detective Maori did not pay attention to what the onlookers said.

But Xiang Yuanguang listened for a while, then shook his head helplessly.

(Oh, I said it was outrageous that Detective Maori encountered a murder case just after leaving the court.)
(It seems that there are others who think so.)
"Miraculous, considering the premise of a famous detective, Mr. Maori is really lucky."

Prosecutor Kuma Sukawa said with emotion nearby.

(Is this guy… just making fun of Kogoro Mori’s death physique, or does he really believe it?)

Xiang Yuanguang wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead.

"Let's not talk about this, Prosecutor Kuma, let's go in and take a look at the situation."

"I'm a little worried about letting Detective Maori go alone."

"Well... indeed, his performance in court was not very ideal."

Kuma Sukawa, who had been listening in the audience for a while, nodded.

The two entered the coffee shop and saw Detective Maori persuading everyone present to be quiet.

"I'm the famous detective Maori Kogoro, and a murder has occurred here."

"Would you please not move until the police arrive?"

"The police will definitely find out the real murderer."

This must be a recurrence of my previous habits as a criminal policeman.

Xiang Yuanguang touched his chin and scanned the layout of the cafe.

Well, I don't think there's any weird person.

(Is this also a case that appeared in Detective Conan?)

(Why don’t I have any impression of this? Is it an early case?)

Thinking of this, Xiang Yuanguang suddenly felt a little annoyed.

These two days he discussed the case with Conan, and deduced the crime process and motives.

I actually forgot to ask Conan if he knew Haibara Ai.

This is one of the important nodes that can explain what period of the plot Conan's worldview is currently in.

"Big brother, come and take a look too."

"Uncle Maori feels so rash."

Conan came closer, pretending to be innocent as he stretched out the words.

Xiang Yuanguang couldn't help but shudder when he heard this.

No matter how many times he heard it, he already knew the true identity of the Elementary School Student of Death.

I can never accept Conan's pretending to be young.

If it wasn't the right time, he would have wanted to give Conan two bottles of Moutai.

Let Conan grow bigger and wake up.

"Leave the maintenance of order here to me, Lawyer Xiang Yuan, you can go with peace of mind."

"Although I'm not good at providing evidence or making arguments."

Kuma Sukawa flexed his muscles.

"But I still know some basic martial arts skills, which can enlighten people!"

(Wow, what kind of enlightenment is this?)
Without saying much, Xiang Yuanguang followed Conan into the bathroom.

Kogoro Mouri was already in the toilet observing the corpse and asking the boss about the situation.

"I want to ask, why did the deceased appear in the men's restroom?"

"Is she... uh, someone with a special hobby?"

The boss's face was a little numb, and he said stiffly.

"Shy, Detective Mori is always joking. Look at this Beika Town."

"Where are the hentai who likes to go into the men's restroom?" "This cafe is co-ed, so it's not surprising that she came in."

(Hmm? For both men and women?)

Xiang Yuanguang touched his chin and suddenly thought of something.

It seemed that there were no women in the cafe except the waiters.

So, is it more likely that the perpetrator is a male?

"I want to ask, Boss, has anyone entered the toilet during this period of time?"

He asked Yuan Guang.

Faced with the question from this unfamiliar face, the boss was obviously stunned.

Kogoro Mouri is a famous detective, so just ask about the case.

Why are you, a plain-looking guy... with just a spiky haircut that's a bit eye-catching, asking this?
Since when did anyone be able to come to the crime scene and ask about the situation?

"I'm a lawyer."

Testimony————[Evidence: Lawyer’s Medal].

Xiang Yuanguang took off the lawyer badge on his collar and showed it to his boss.

The boss immediately showed respect.

What? A lawyer? He must be treated well.

This store is a small business and cannot afford to be harassed by lawyers!

He thought hard, and when the sirens outside started to sound, he spoke as if he suddenly realized something.

"Oh——I really can't remember."

"I was just chatting with Mr. Toyama, and then I went to prepare coffee, so I didn't pay attention to these."

(I see. That’s troublesome.)
He nodded to Yuan Guang and put the lawyer badge back on his collar.

I heard Inspector Megure's voice outside and was about to go out with Detective Mori and the others.

But Conan grabbed the corner of his clothes and stopped him.

Detective Maori, who had already reached the door, turned his head in confusion.

"What's wrong, Xiang Yuan kid, aren't you going out with me?"

Xiang Yuanguang patted Conan's little head next to him.

Said quite helplessly.

"Your child was scared and held on to me and wouldn't let me leave."

"It's okay. I'll wait for you here and do the on-site investigation as usual."

Only then did Kogoro Maori nodded and went out.

Although in Kogoro Mori's mind, Mukai Genmitsu is still a troublesome little lawyer.

But in fact, after the trial, he had an inexplicable trust in Xiang Yuanguang.

As for why... he couldn't say.

Anyway, I feel that Conan will be fine as long as he is with Genguang.

Tick, tick.

Outside, Detective Mouri started talking to Inspector Megure, and then Genkou squatted down and asked Conan.

"What's wrong? Is there something you have to tell me right now?"

Conan moved the big hand off his head with an unhappy look on his face.

He raised his head and stared at Xiang Yuanguang.

"I saw the people who entered the toilet during this period."

"Did you see it?"

Xiang Yuanguang was very surprised. Weren’t you in the ramen restaurant with me?

"Hmph, that happened before the ramen arrived."

"I saw three people enter this room - the toilet - during this time."

"There is a man in the corner who is writing documents, a man sitting at the counter chatting with the boss, and a man who looks unpleasant and like a gigolo."

"I'll ask you to submit these evidences. Xiaolan is in the store, so I can't talk."

(Hmm…it’s the classic three-choice again.)
Nodded to Yuan Guang.

"give it to me."
