Detective Cauchy

Chapter 6 Doubt

Soon, the three of Cauchy completed the investigation of the names of all the residents, and Conan also completed the investigation.

The two groups returned to the agreed first floor, and carefully checked the names that had just been investigated: "Now there are only five families left most likely, and among them, only one family knows the surname and first name, and only one family name is marked. There are four."

If only the surname is known, it is impossible to judge whether the name of this household matches the beginning of M and A. This means that they can only investigate one family, but they cannot know the remaining four families.

When everyone was troubled, Ayumi suddenly pointed to the mailbox outside the hall door and said, "Hey, isn't the name written on the mailbox outside, we can investigate there."

"Yes."

Hearing Ayumi's words, everyone suddenly realized, praised Ayumi one after another, and then went out of the lobby to investigate those mailboxes.

Of course, Kojima Motota was arranged by everyone as a goalkeeper to guard the hall, in case they could not enter after the door was closed after they came out.

After investigating the names on the mailbox, Conan and others excluded the households whose names did not match the initials, leaving only the names of three households.

So, under the leadership of Conan, who is very smart, they checked the phone book of the phone booth outside the apartment building, and successfully excluded a resident.

There are only Shimasa in room 305 and Michihiro Ishida in room 705 left.

However, this is only to determine the names of the male owners of the two households, and the name of the female owners is still uncertain.

When they passed by the bicycle shed downstairs in the apartment, Mitsuhiko suddenly said: "Look, there is also a name on the bicycle, we can look up the bicycle."

"Hey, you're quite smart, Mitsuhiko." Conan praised Mitsuhiko without hesitation.

Indeed, Mitsuhiko's little head is also very clever. When reasoning and solving cases with Conan and the others, he is often the first to analyze many useful things.

After looking for the name of the bicycle, Conan and the others successfully found a resident whose name matches the beginning of M and A.That is Shimasawa and Shima Asuka couple.

Although the Shima and his wife met the requirements, the household of Ishida Michihiro may also meet the requirements.

Therefore, everyone came to the apartment building again, intending to ask Michihiro Ishida's neighbors to see if they could find Mrs. Ishida's name.

When they went to knock on the room next to Michihiro Ishida, there was no one there.

So they took the elevator again and came to the room downstairs of Ishida Michihiro, intending to ask the neighbor downstairs.

The names of the husband and wife downstairs of Michihiro Ishida are Akihiko Uehara and Misato Uehara, and the beginning of the name is exactly the opposite of the beginning of M and A.

Because this floor was investigated by Conan and his team before, Cauchy didn't know about this situation.

However, even if Cauchy knew it now, he didn't pay much attention to it.

Because the system has blocked the memory of this case, Cauchy subconsciously agrees with Conan's previous analysis, so he has not suspected this resident.

"Ding dong."

Conan and the others rang the doorbell, and not long after, the door of the room opened, and a 30-year-old woman in a green dress with good looks stood at the door.

At first, the woman just stood by the door, showing half of her face, with a vigilant expression.

However, when she saw that the people who rang the doorbell were a few children, her expression gradually relaxed, showing a friendly smile: "Kids, what do you want?"

"Auntie, we are students of Didan Primary School. We are currently doing a free study of daily life, investigating the surnames of RB people. So we would like to ask, what is the name of Mrs. Ishida who lives upstairs?" Mitsuhiko Say it.

"So that's how it is..." The woman secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled gently at Conan and the others: "I'm sorry, kids, but Auntie doesn't know the names of the residents upstairs, so I can't help you."

"That's it, then thank you, auntie." Conan and the others sighed regretfully, thanked the woman, and then walked towards the elevator.

Before entering the elevator, Ke Xi turned his head slightly and glanced at the woman.

The woman also noticed that Cosy was looking at her, and she gave Cosy a gentle smile.

Originally, it was just an unintentional glance, but Coxi accidentally discovered that there was something wrong with this woman's feet.

To be precise, there is something wrong with the shoes on this woman's feet.

Because, this woman is wearing two high-heeled shoes of different colors on her two feet, one is brown red and the other is wine red.

If it is an ordinary person, it is estimated that it is difficult to notice this problem. After all, brown red and wine red look similar, and they may be confused even if they look carefully.

However, it is impossible for Cauchy to be wrong.

In the real world, he works as a color scheme designer.

He has dealt with colors for several years, and he will never fail to see the difference between these two colors.

"Do girls wear the wrong shoes too?"

Just when Kexi was thinking about this question, Ayumi's voice suddenly came, interrupting Kexi's thoughts.

"Student Suzuki, come in quickly, we have to go upstairs to ask another neighbor." Ayumi said.

"Oh!"

Ke Xi glanced at the woman, and then walked into the elevator.

Although it was a bit strange, Cauchy only paid attention to it slightly, and didn't think of anything because of it.

It's just wearing the wrong shoes. In the real world, Cauchy occasionally gets confused and wears the wrong shoes.

If it is a girl, there are at least five pairs of shoes in the shoe cabinet, and it is not surprising that they wear the wrong shoes because of similar colors.

Soon, they were at the door of the room of Michihiro Ishida's upper-class neighbor.

The resident's surname is Sakurai.After Conan and the others rang the doorbell, Mrs. Sakurai opened the door and came out.

After listening to Conan and the others asking Mrs. Ishida's name, Mrs. Sakurai answered their questions enthusiastically.

It turned out that Mrs. Ishida's name was Wenzi, and her name began with F, so the Ishida family was naturally excluded by Conan and the others.

In this way, there is only the last family left, Shimasaka and Yojima Asuka.

At this moment, Mrs. Sakurai told Conan and the others another interesting thing, saying that Mrs. Ishida had a son named Yuta.

This Yuta is a very bright kid, and one day he got stuck in the storage room.He even used the toilet paper to stick out the window very cleverly, so that passers-by could find him and rescued him.

When Conan heard this, his eyes were fixed, as if he had found some clues, he quickly asked Mrs. Sakurai: "Auntie, do all the people living in this building know about what you are talking about?"

Mrs. Sakurai thought for a while, and then said: "You should all know, this matter is quite famous here."

Sure enough, Conan frowned when he heard the words, and said in his heart: "So that's how it is."

Originally, he thought that this matter was just Ayumi and the others fooling around.But through this matter, Conan has been [-]% sure that this matter is indeed true, and the owner of this ring may really be imprisoned.

If you randomly drop something from downstairs, even if it is a precious wedding ring, you will probably be suspected of being a prank by a child.

But if there is a precedent of the little friend of Xiongtai who was trapped in the storage room, even if people thought it was a prank, they would have a mentality of wanting to come and make sure.

This is what the owner of this ring means.If someone finds that the ring she left behind has an S-shaped hook, they will come up to confirm it.

When Cauchy saw Conan's appearance, he guessed that he must have found something. In the cartoon, as long as Conan found any clues, he would make such a dignified expression.

So Cauchy asked: "Student Edogawa, did you find anything?"

"Well, now I have confirmed that the owner of this ring is indeed imprisoned." Conan nodded.

"..." Kexi was speechless.

It turned out that after tossing for a long time, this guy just confirmed that this matter is true, rather than found any clues to solve the case.

"Hurry up, let's go to the third floor now. The only family that meets the requirements is Shimasawa and Shima Asuka. Just go and confirm it, and we will know the truth."

After speaking, Conan led everyone to the elevator, preparing to go to the room of the Shima and his wife on the third floor.

Sitting on the elevator, Coxi suddenly asked, "Hey, Huiyuan-san, can I ask you something?"

"What's the matter?" Xiao Ai looked at Ke Xi.

"If it was you girls, would you wear the wrong shoes?" Ke Xi asked, he was still a little curious about the fact that the shoes worn by the woman just now were of a different color.

Xiao Ai thought for a while, and then said: "Probably not. After all, girls are very beautiful. If you go out wearing the wrong shoes, you may be laughed at."

"What if there are many pairs of shoes of the same color? Will they be worn wrong?" Cauchy asked again.

"If that's the case, it's possible..." Xiao Ai rubbed her chin, then said.

"So that's the case." Hearing this, Ke Xi nodded, it seemed that he was thinking too much.

However, Xiao Ai's next words aroused his suspicion again, Xiao Ai said: "However, if you wear the wrong shoes, your feet will feel very uncomfortable."

"Really?" Kexi's heart moved.Indeed, if you wear the wrong shoes, even if you wear them yourself, you will feel very uncomfortable.

After all, every pair of shoes is designed differently.It's like eating with two chopsticks of different lengths, which makes people feel awkward.

Moreover, carefully recalling the situation just now, he suddenly felt that the shoes worn by that woman were not only of different colors, but also of different sizes...
