The Pirated Onmyoji of the Detective World

"..."

The black-clad knight stood frozen in place, offering no reply.

"doctor……"

Xiao Lan was taken aback when she saw this.

For some reason, she felt that Dr. Araide had been acting strange ever since the performance on stage began.

At this moment, Inspector Megure did not notice the strange behavior of the black-clad knight following Ran, because he finally found his target in the crowd.

"Hey Aragaki, you're here too!" Inspector Megure exclaimed excitedly as he looked at Aragaki Yu, who was standing not far away with Miyano Akemi.

After greeting Aragaki Yu warmly, Inspector Megure also asked Mouri Kogoro, who had been guarding the body, "So, no one touched the body just now, right?"

“Of course, Inspector Megure,” Kogoro Mouri assured him confidently. “Maintaining the integrity of the crime scene is fundamental to any investigation! No one approached the body before this coroner did!”

"it is good."

Inspector Megure nodded; in this respect, he had great confidence in former detective Kogoro Mouri.

At the same time, Officer Takagi turned to look at the coroner who was investigating the body, "Has the cause of his death been determined yet?"

The coroner turned and nodded to Officer Takagi. "Yes, I think this is probably..."

"Potassium cyanate, right?"

Before the coroner could finish speaking, a boy wearing a baseball cap suddenly came to the side of the body, squatted down, and began to examine the body while speaking.

"What!?"

The people present looked at the boy who had suddenly appeared in surprise.

That's right, this boy is none other than Hattori Heiji, who just sat down next to "Conan" and was trying to impersonate Shinichi Kudo.

"I think this guy probably died from potassium cyanide poisoning..."

"Hey!" Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure roared angrily at Kogoro Mouri, "Didn't you just say that absolutely no one had touched the body?"

"Ah!" Startled by Inspector Megure's sudden reprimand, Kogoro Mouri was also somewhat bewildered. "Yes, that's how it should be!"

Just as Kogoro Mouri was at a loss for words, Heiji Hattori chuckled and said, "Come on, even without touching the corpse, I can tell what's going on just by looking at him."

Then, amidst everyone's puzzled expressions, Hattori Heiji continued to try to sound like Kudo Shinichi, saying, "When a person dies, they usually lose their color, but this guy's lips and nails are not only not purple, but they are pink. This is evidence of potassium cyanide poisoning."

Then, after Heiji Hattori's scientific explanation, Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mouri couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment.

"Oh?" After Hattori Heiji finished speaking, Inspector Megure looked at the coroner beside him to confirm, "Is that so?"

"No, that's right! The deceased's breath smelled of almonds, just as the young man said, it was definitely potassium cyanide poisoning." The coroner looked at Hattori Heiji with some admiration before reporting to Inspector Megure.

At this moment, Kogoro Mouri couldn't help but move closer to the boy who had suddenly appeared.

For some reason, the guy in front of him gave him a strange sense of familiarity. However, he still said with some suspicion, "You really know a lot about this kind of thing. I mean, were you sitting next to Mr. Kamata when the incident happened?"

“It’s far from it!” Hattori Heiji explained with a smile. “My seat is at the very front, across the aisle from this deceased Mr. Putian.”

"Huh? You're sitting at the very front on the other side?" Upon hearing this, Kogoro Mouri stroked his chin in confusion.

The location the boy mentioned seemed familiar to me as well.

Before he could even remember, Hattori Heiji suddenly leaned close to Mouri Kogoro and said, "That's right, it's four or five seats away from where you're sitting, uncle! Right next to that little boy with glasses!"

After saying that, Hattori Heiji pointed to Conan, who had been standing silently to the side.

"Is that so, Kogoro Mouri?" Inspector Megure looked at Kogoro Mouri with surprise.

"Huh?" Unfortunately, Kogoro Mouri scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly and said, "I'm sorry, I was so focused on watching the show that I didn't even notice who was sitting next to me!"

Yes, Kogoro Mouri was so focused on gritting his teeth and wanting to rush onto the stage to teach that black-clad knight a lesson during that time.

"Hey Conan, have you seen this guy before?" After giving the unreliable Kogoro Mouri a helpless glare, Inspector Megure also looked at Conan.

"Hmm..." Ai Haibara used the voice changer hidden inside her mask to imitate Conan's voice, "I think that's how it is."

"But speaking of which," after an awkward laugh, Kogoro Mouri suddenly stared intently at Heiji Hattori and said, "I feel like I've seen you somewhere before..."

"What! Brother Mori, you think so too!" Inspector Megure clapped his hands, glanced excitedly at Kogoro Mori, and then looked at Heiji Hattori. "Who exactly are you?!"

"What?! You've forgotten me so quickly? I've only come back once in so long, you're really heartless!"

Upon hearing this, Hattori Heiji's lips curled up slightly.

He disguised himself like this to come here, wasn't that his purpose?

Hattori Heiji took off his baseball cap, revealing a face that looked very much like Kudo Shinichi's. "I'm Kudo Shinichi!"

However, perhaps to conceal his dark complexion, the stark white makeup on his face was rather distracting.

Xiaolan: Staring...

Kogoro Mouri: *stares*

Inspector Megure and Inspector Takagi: "..."

Sonoko: "Huh?"

Ai Haibara, disguised as Conan: "Heh..."

Shinichi Kudo, the Black Knight: "Damn it!"

The surrounding audience stared wide-eyed, "Really?"

"Actually..." Heiji Hattori took two steps forward, put his hand on Ran's shoulder, and smiled at Conan beside him, "It was this kid with glasses who called me and asked me to come see your performance, Ran, right, little brat?"

Haibara Ai:"……"

Ai Haibara, disguised as Conan, turned her head away speechlessly, showing that she didn't really want to pay attention to him.

She finally figured out who this guy was.

"But, but..." Ran Mouri looked at the guy in front of her who called himself "Shinichi" with some confusion, "You wouldn't happen to be...

Although he does look somewhat like Shinichi.

But this "Shinichi Kudo" has such a strong Osaka vibe!

"Heiji!?"

Just then, Kazuha Toyama, who had been standing somewhere a moment ago, suddenly stepped between Ran and Heiji Hattori. "What are you doing?"

Hattori Heiji was startled by Kazuha's sudden appearance and quickly took two steps back, staring at her with wide eyes. A sense of foreboding arose within him. "What, what's she doing here? Didn't I tell her not to come?"

Seeing this, Kazuha Toyama stepped forward, then reached out and wiped Hattori Heiji's face before asking in confusion, "Why are you wearing so much foundation? Your hairstyle is different too. Are you here to perform in a Kabuki play?"

"N-no way!" Hattori Heiji took two more steps back, then awkwardly laughed and argued, "Look carefully, I'm not Hattori Heiji, I'm Kudo Shinichi!"

Now, let alone Kazuha and Ran.

Seeing the dark skin on Hattori Heiji's face after Kazuha wiped off his foundation, Kogoro Mouri and Inspector Megure couldn't bear to look at it anymore.

Feeling they'd been tricked, the two men glared at Hattori Heiji and roared in unison, "You brat, what kind of ridiculous joke is this?!"

Hattori Heiji:"……"

"This is ruined! This won't work at all!" Hattori Heiji scratched his head in frustration, quickly changing his hairstyle back to normal. Then he wiped his face with a handkerchief, reverting to his original charcoal-black complexion. "That's right, that's right, I was pretending to be Shinichi Kudo, just to give everyone a surprise! Ugh, you guys still saw through me..."

"Seriously, how can there be someone like you!" Kogoro Mouri rolled his eyes and complained to Heiji Hattori.

Inspector Megure, also squinting, muttered, "Seriously, we already have enough idiots like Mori here..."

Kogoro Mouri blinked, bewildered: "Huh?"

"..."

"Ahem, anyway, let's continue with the investigation!" Inspector Megure coughed twice and walked towards the somewhat bewildered brown-haired woman once again.

According to the brown-haired woman, her name is Noda Yumemi.

"Excuse me, did the drink come from the deceased Mr. Kamata?" Just then, another boy wearing a baseball cap and Teitan High School uniform walked over and interrupted Inspector Megure.

"Damn it! You..."

After discovering that his investigation was being interrupted one after another, Inspector Megure angrily walked toward the boy who had suddenly barged into the investigation scene.

"You little brat... huh!?"

However, just as Inspector Megure snatched the boy's hat off, he was once again shocked when he looked at the boy's face.

"Kudo...brother!?"

"Shinichi!"

"..."

Everyone was stunned when they saw the boy's face revealed after Inspector Megure took off his hat.

Why has another Shinichi Kudo appeared?

Ran stared blankly at Shinichi Kudo's face, then looked at Conan beside her in a daze, completely bewildered.

"What...what's going on?!"

Of course, Heiji Hattori was just as stunned as Ran.
