Chapter 14 Conan is puzzled

"Kusuke, you're here!" Xiaolan's happy voice came.

Looking at Terusuke lying on the chair next to him, Maori Kogoro, who was already exhausted after walking around with Xiaolan for a few rounds, gritted his teeth and said, "You little brat, you said we were going to walk around separately, but you ended up being lazy here!"

"Nonsense! I've been to many places and I'm just taking a break!" Huisuke retorted.

Conan looked at Huisuke lying in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched. This was consistent with his stereotype of Huisuke. Then he said: "Really? Then why didn't we meet you when we were shopping?"

"Maybe we just happened to miss each other!" Huijie replied nonchalantly, then said to Xiaolan: "Sis, are you guys done shopping?"

After hearing this, Kogoro Mouri and Conan no longer cared where Terusuke had gone, and looked at Xiaolan with hope.

Xiaolan put her fingers to her face, thought for a moment, smiled and said, "Well... since we're here, let's go to the last room and take a look!"

"Ah?" After hearing Xiaolan's reply, Kogoro Mouri and Conan fell on their seats.

Huijie replied with a smile: "Then let's go, sister, why are there two people slacking off here?"

This kid!
Kogoro Mouri and Conan gritted their teeth, then stood up and followed behind.

The only thing I can’t do is be called a slacker by Terusuke!

……

Medieval Art Museum, the House of Hell.

Looking at the description of the work, Maori Kogoro pointed to a picture and said, "The title of this work is Heaven's Punishment. It is said to depict a righteous knight sealing off a demon."

"Tick, tick..."

A sound of dripping water came from somewhere.

"Ah!" When Xiaolan walked closer, she found the body of Boss Manaka.

Hearing the noise, Kogoro Mouri and Conan ran over to take a look, their faces changed drastically, and they called the police.

Unlike the other two, Huisuke looked at a pen that had fallen to the ground.

The police arrived quickly, and it was the familiar Inspector Megure again.

As soon as they met, Inspector Megure looked at Maori Kogoro with a look of disgust and said, "Why are you here again?"

Maori Kogoro looked at Inspector Megure, saluted, and said with a smile: "It was me, no one else touched the body!"

After some inquiries, Inspector Megure suddenly discovered that there was silent surveillance in this place.

Huisuke looked at the scene in the surveillance video that was the same as the one in "Heavenly Punishment" and couldn't help but admire the strength of Director Ochiai.

Afterwards, the sharp-eyed Conan immediately discovered the note and the thrown pen left by Director Ochiai and left in the hands of Boss Manaka.

"Kubota?"

"Is this the name the deceased is writing?"

Inspector Megure asked, and sure enough, they had the motive and time for Kubota's crime, and even found the blood-stained armor.

Looking at the case that was going smoothly, Conan suddenly felt something was wrong. How could it be so smooth?
Then he looked at Terusuke standing beside him, and saw Terusuke standing under the painting "Divine Punishment", seemingly thinking about something.

Conan walked up to Huisuke and asked, "Huisuke, do you feel that there is something wrong with this case? It seems to be going too smoothly, as if everything was prepared!" "That's normal. Your thinking is the same as my dad and those police officers. It's right to feel that it's unreasonable."

Listening to Terusuke's complaints, Conan suddenly thought of something. Without even listening to Terusuke's words, he ran straight to the monitoring room and watched it again.

Then, after taking another look at the evidence, Conan understood!
A scratched piece of paper with Kubota's name on it;

A pen thrown out by the deceased, but with the tip retracted.

He already understood everything. He looked at Huisuke and asked, "I have figured it all out. Do you know the answer?"

Looking at Conan, Huisuke asked casually: "Isn't it obvious? It was Kubota who did it. Do you have a different opinion?"

Conan smiled and told Huisuke his thoughts, saying: "I don't think it's Kubota, someone wants to frame him, and that person, I think it's Director Ochiai!"

Afterwards, Conan went to the scene. In his opinion, he won this case competition because he saw the truth that even Terusuke could not see.

Looking at Conan's departing back, Huisuke smiled and whispered: "Wait and see, let me see your true self, detective!"

Thinking of this, with Conan's inadvertent reminder, Kogoro Mouri discovered those suspicious points.

"So, the murderer actually wanted to frame Kubota?"

“Moreover, since the pen left at the scene is a pen that can write something, then there must be people present who have pens that cannot write anything!”

Thinking of this, Inspector Megure asked the police at the scene to go and see whose pen could not write anything.

Hearing what Kogoro Mori said, Director Ochiai trembled, hesitated for a moment, sighed, and prepared to admit his crime.

Conan, who had been keeping an eye on Director Ochiai, understood clearly that Director Ochiai must be the murderer, so he went up to him and asked Director Ochiai to draw the route to the toilet for him.

Looking at the child in front of him and recalling what happened before, Ochiai sighed, realizing that the child in front of him had seen through the truth.

"Sir, Mr. Kubota's pen won't hold anything!"

A policeman's words interrupted the thoughts of the two people on the scene.

Director Ochiai seemed to have thought of something, turned around and looked at Terusuke beside him, then lowered his head and laughed, drawing a route map for Conan.

Conan couldn't understand at this moment why it was Kubota. Ochiai's expression just now was clearly the expression of someone who was about to confess his guilt that he had seen many times!
Holding Director Ochiai's hand-drawn map, Conan returned to Xiaolan with some confusion.

Looking at Kubota who was taken away, Maori Kogoro said: "Damn Kubota, he actually wanted to say that he was the murderer first and then clear himself. Fortunately, I, the famous detective Maori Kogoro, will not be fooled by him!"

Then he started laughing.

Until Conan walked to the door of the art museum, he was still wondering what was wrong.

Later, Huisuke saw Conan running back to the museum and asked Director Ochiai: "I want to ask you a question, why is that pen in Kubota's hand?"

"Because he is the murderer, little brother!" After thinking about it, Director Ochiai said with a smile.

Then he couldn't help but sigh, I really have been redeemed!
He looked at Terusuke, and Terusuke looked back with a smile.

Then, Conan turned to look at Terusuke. How could this happen? Did Terusuke discover it again?
Or, looking back at Director Ochiai who had already withdrawn his gaze, Conan was still full of doubts in his heart. Did he really make a mistake?

But all signs indicate that Director Ochiai should be the murderer!
