Conan: Rice Flower Spring

Chapter 51. The living Kudo Shinichi!
It was hard for Lin Ryoma to imagine that the sickly Edogawa Conan he met at the beginning would become so full of energy after encountering a murder case.

By the time he was in Mao Lilan's arms, the boy's condition had become worse again.

No, buddy. Your condition is quite targeted, right?

With just one glance, Lin Ryoma determined that this young man named Edogawa Conan was a promising talent.

If you want to succeed, you have to lose face sometimes. But when you succeed, you can get back all the face you lost.

This is called Schrödinger's face.

Since the deceased was the diplomat Tsujimura Isao, the Metropolitan Police Department responded extremely quickly.

Don't worry about whether the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department can solve this case or not. Just think about whether their efficiency is high, their attitude is correct, and their sincerity is sufficient!
"Why is it you again, Brother Mori!" Inspector Megure felt bad luck in his heart when he saw Kogoro Mori for the first time when he entered the scene.

Inspector Megure loves and hates this former subordinate. What he loves is that since he quit his job as a detective, he seems to have become smarter. He solved the case without any problems.

This greatly reduces the workload of criminal police.

What they hate is that ever since Kogoro Mouri became wise, they encounter murders wherever they go, which increases the workload of the detectives.

Doesn’t this addition and subtraction make people love and hate it?

In the past, the victims of murders that this brother encountered were all ordinary people, so that was fine. But today, he actually extended his claws to diplomats?!

No, how did the diplomat offend you?
Although it was an unlucky thing, life had to go on and the murder case had to be investigated. Inspector Megure didn't even look at the scene and asked angrily:

"So, this case is murder again?"

Compared to the lively expression of Inspector Megure when he saw the dirty things, Maori Kogoro seemed much more reserved. It seemed that he also knew that his physique was a bit weird.
"Well, I see no obvious external injuries on the body, I'm afraid it's not."

"No! Look at the body more carefully! This must be..." Conan was interrupted by Hattori Heiji before he could finish his words.

"Poison."

Wuhu? Yes, it looks more and more like it. This Edogawa Conan's performance on the scene doesn't look like a child at all.

He's clearly a detective who's confident about what he's doing.

The more Hayashi Ryoma looked at Conan, the stronger the sense of déjà vu became, so he went to Mao Li Ran to bring up the old matter.

"Mori-san, has Conan always been like this?"

"Yeah, that seems to be the case." Mao Lilan seemed a little helpless. This child is simply unmanageable: "I don't know why every time, Conan will be very excited when he sees the scene.

Sometimes we can’t find anyone, but luckily Conan doesn’t cause any trouble, otherwise he wouldn’t be allowed to stay at the scene no matter what.”

"Is that so? Then Conan is really a precocious child." Lin Longma nodded in admiration seriously.

"Really? Sometimes I also feel that Conan doesn't look like an elementary school student!"

It seemed that Mao Lilan was quite bored staying at the scene. Seeing that Lin Longma was talking about sex, the two of them just started chatting casually.

The topic of the chat was naturally our little friend Edogawa Conan. With the help of Hattori Heiji, the scene progressed steadily and new clues were soon found.

At this moment, Conan, who was standing there thinking, suddenly covered his heart and trembled.

"Conan!" Ran Mouri, who was paying attention to Conan, discovered it first.

Seeing Conan's condition, Lin Longma immediately said to Mao Lilan: "Mauri, please find a room for Conan to rest. I will ask someone to contact a doctor!"

Because Tsujimura Isao died suddenly, but his condition was not serious enough for doctors to perform resuscitation on the body, there was no doctor in Tsujimura's house.

The idea of asking the forensic examiner who collected the body to treat the disease was really too hellish.

So Hayashi Ryoma asked Kaneda to quickly contact a doctor to treat Conan, and under the guidance of Takayoshi Tsujimura, Mao Li Ran sent Conan to his room to rest.

The time without Conan at the scene was a bit boring for Lin Longma. As a member of the organization, he had no curiosity about the murder scene.

I'm tired of seeing this stuff. Isn't it that Lin Longma worked hard to climb to the top so as not to create such scenes himself?
But soon, Hattori Heiji brought another fun to Hayashi Ryoma.

"Um, Hattori-kun, I didn't quite hear you. Who did you say the murderer was?"

Lin Ryoma, who was daydreaming, suddenly heard Hattori Heiji shouting in the study, "You are the murderer," and then said a name that shocked Lin Ryoma.

"The murderer is Mr. Tsujimura Toshimitsu!" Hattori Heiji said confidently, and then he couldn't wait to demonstrate the method he thought of to the police and bystanders.

Ah, if Hayashi Ryoma didn't know the inside story, Hattori Heiji might have really fooled him.

Tsujimura Toshimitsu is a murderer? Even this high school detective from Osaka is not good enough.

It must be said that although the secret room technique designed by Hattori Heiji was fancy, the experiment actually succeeded at once. The key to the study really slipped into the trouser pocket of Inspector Megure who was sitting in the study pretending to be the victim according to Hattori Heiji's design.

But... Lin Longma looked at the body of Inspector Megure and shook his head regretfully. This method might be possible if Inspector Megure was lying flat on the table. But it would definitely not work if he was sitting on a chair.

It seems that Hattori from Kansai is still not as good as Kudo from Kanto?
At the same time, because of what Officer Megure said, Hayashi Ryoma also knew the identity of Hattori Heiji. He was the son of the head of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters.

Logically speaking, although Kudo Shinichi's reasoning ability may be better than Hattori Heiji's, in Hayashi Ryoma's eyes, Hattori Heiji is more valuable.

Although Hayashi Ryoma knew that Hattori Heiji's reasoning was wrong, he had no intention of stepping forward to point it out.

The reason is simple. Hayashi Ryoma wanted Tsujimura Isao to die. Now that Tsujimura Isao has successfully died in front of him, it doesn't matter to Hayashi Ryoma who the murderer is.

He is not a policeman, nor a detective - Lin Longma has never pursued the truth. He and all the members of Isshinkai pursue nothing more than survival.

For some reason, Tsujimura Toshimitsu, who was originally framed, did not refute or protest, but directly admitted that he was the murderer. Hayashi Ryoma was puzzled but did not respect him much.

What had he been thinking about before now, knowing that he had to confess? Lin Longma guessed that Tsujimura Toshimitsu must have been frightened by Tsujimura Kimie's handwriting.

Just as Lin Longma was about to pack up and leave, and then contact Gin to taunt Rum remotely, a panting voice suddenly came from the study door.

"Wait a minute! The real culprit of the case is not Mr. Tsujimura, but someone else!"

What the hell is going on?! Lin Longma turned around, and his pupils trembled - the poor guy leaning against the door frame with a face full of kidney deficiency was none other than Kudo Shinichi!!!
How dare he appear in public? !
