Ms. Moriarty wants to save Beika Town today too.

Winnet was also surprised and confused by the result.

Could it be that Vermouth and Kudo Shinichi are already able to coexist peacefully and discuss countermeasures?

Or is it that the person in front of him is the Kaito Kidd who is proficient in disguise?

Or has Dr. Agasa finally realized his millionaire daydream?

She remembered that Kudo Shinichi almost caught Kaito Kid, and felt that with that thief's will to avenge his flaws, she would never reconcile with Kudo Shinichi.

Conan just stood there.

wrong……

That's not Conan.

After all, staying in the hospital for two days would not be a waste for that adventurous kid. Although the posture of putting his hands in his pockets was what Edogawa always liked to do, he was just standing normally now, not trying to look cool.

Moreover, seeing two larger versions of myself appear at the scene, I felt calm.

It’s Xiao Ai.

It was she who dressed up as Conan and acted as a stand-in.

If Conan is Ai, then the person in front of him is——

"I'm Kudou Shin'ichii!"

he declared.

Is it genuine?

It looks like it is.

Feeling the ridiculousness of the performance, Winnet was not angry. On the contrary, she was very happy, as it meant that Ai had developed the antidote.

"How ridiculous! You are Kudo Shinichi, so who am I?" Winette continued, "Why did you choose to dress up as me and get close to Xiaolan?"

"I should be the one asking you this question instead." Kudo Shinichi was not willing to be outdone.

He had originally intended to see if this guy pretending to be him had real skills and whether he could solve the case, but he suddenly extended his evil hand to Xiaolan, which was absolutely intolerable. Kudo Shinichi frowned, looked at Winette, and stretched out a finger to him.

"I have to admit that your disguise is very realistic," said Winnett.

Kudo Shinichi:......

I'm pretending to be myself, right? Kudo Shinichi was furious. Although he had stopped the other party from touching Xiaolan, the other party was obviously going to kiss her at that time. Even he had never wanted to do it - at least not at this time. His anger began to burn on the stage, and the fuse had burned out, starting from the moment this imposter showed off his skills on the stage and ruined his original arrangement.

Whether it is to dispel Xiaolan's doubts or take this opportunity to express one's own feelings, the other party is an uninvited guest.

To be honest, the other party's performance was very vivid.

For a moment, he thought he saw another self in the world.

Even the emotions are well shown.

No, it's you who's angry? Kudo Shinichi was speechless, watching his own face deformed in anger; if he wasn't a real participant at this time, he might have been deceived by him, suspecting that he was not the real Kudo Shinichi, but the child Conan who had Kudo Shinichi's memory.

However, there is one thing he absolutely cannot fake.

Kudo Shinichi was sure.

Winnett saw herself as a half-pitied protagonist whose position was usurped by the fake Kudo Shinichi. She heard the discussions about "Kudo" and watched this inexplicable "Kudo" usurp her limelight and the girl she liked.

The true and false Monkey King...Oh, it's Kudo Shinichi.

It is no different from monkey show. She has to play the role of the six-eared macaque. If she wants to achieve the ideal effect before her appearance, she can't be stingy with the face that does not belong to her. Kudo Shinichi will make a brilliant appearance, and the fake one will run away with its tail between its legs. The reasoning show will make all this happen. The fantasy of the story, the unromantic, the girl's dream, they will all come true.

Unwilling to admit defeat - Winette's self-determination. Only losers need to choose decency, while winners laugh wildly on the stage, without any grace and no sound can shake them. The stage she expects is not here, this is playing house, this is the gift from Ai to Xiaolan - the dream love. She is the executor, dedicating her performance to Miss "Edogawa Conan" behind.

Ok.

Please watch, my princess.

Let's get started.

Winnet lifted her cloak, turned around and walked towards Inspector Megure. Before turning around, she gave Kudo Shinichi a provocative look.

……

486 True and False Black Knight 9

Is this a declaration of war on me?

Kudo Shinichi looked at Winnett's back and was ready to fight her, not realizing that it was a scenario that would guarantee his victory. Before accepting the challenge, he needed a prop, so he asked for help from Hattori, who had not yet recovered from his shock.

He needs a ten-yen coin.

Hattori was stunned for a moment, but soon he shared his train of thought and came to the same conclusion as him, and they both came to the same conclusion about the truth of the case.

At this time, Hattori already regarded him as the real Kudo Shinichi.

"for you."

"Thank you."

He caught up with Winnet.

"It seems that we should rely on reasoning to determine the outcome," he said.

Megure was still dizzy when he saw the two Kudo Shinichis. However, the case was urgent, so he turned his attention to Winette because she was the first to say that this was a murder. He reiterated the findings of the forensic personnel: no poison reaction was found in any of the drink cups.

"And Mr. Kamata drank all the drink in his cup. This is definitely a suicide case."

"At first glance, that's true."

Winette said as she glared at Kudo Shinichi.

She continued, "But it can be done with a little bit of manipulation. The criminal's method of committing the crime is actually very simple. All it takes is the use of ice."

Kogoro was surprised, "You mean using ice?"

"That's right. All you need to do is to drill a hole in the ice, inject potassium cyanate into it, and then seal it with a small piece of ice. Because potassium cyanate is extremely difficult to dissolve in ice water and is in the center of the ice, it is enough to prepare it in advance and then put it in Mr. Kamata's cup."

Kudo Shinichi stared at Winnet.

The method is correct.

Could it be that he had already found the correct answer? Then the game would be a draw again.

"But even so, we should still find the poison dissolved from the ice in the cup!" Megure said.

"Mr. Kamata's drink cup lid was open, right?" She continued, "The air conditioning in this gym is broken, and it's 2 p.m., which is close to the hottest time, so the drink station only provides cold drinks with ice cubes."

"What does this prove?" Kogoro said disdainfully, "Maybe he accidentally opened the lid because he was in so much pain after drinking it."

"No." Kudo Shinichi corrected him, "He just said that the murderer took advantage of a small habit. That is, Mr. Urata has the habit of chewing ice cubes after drinking cold drinks. Especially since the environment here is very hot, this possibility has increased further."

Megure was speechless.

Which of you two is Kudo Shinichi? For a moment, he felt that both of them were very good at reasoning, not only in their words and deeds, but also in their specialties. Not to mention clones, the theory of twins is inevitable.

Besides, if it's a disguise, wouldn't it be quicker to just check each other's faces?

I didn't expect that such a serious matter as handling a case would be used by the two Kudo Shinichi to prove themselves.

"So, neither Mr. Mitani nor Ms. Noda, who passed the drink cup at the time, could have committed the crime," said Winnett.

Kudo Shinichi was not to be outdone, "As for Ninagawa-san, who is in charge of selling drinks, he is likely the one who added the ice."

The little girl was startled.

Winnett also found a tacit understanding and continued, "However, she arbitrarily replaced the iced coffee ordered by Mr. Urata with Coke, making it possible for the drink to be returned. Based on this, even if she poisoned him, her success rate would only be 50%."

"So the only person who could have poisoned Mr. Kamata is Miss Hongue Mai, who went to buy the drink and brought it to the audience. You are the most likely culprit."

After identifying the murderer, Kudo Shinichi realized that there was something wrong with the rhythm. In this way, the two of them did not seem to be competing in reasoning ability at all, but instead seemed to be working together to solve the case.

However, the case is more important.

Kudo Shinichi thought that there was still a backup plan. As long as they carefully examined each other's faces, the truth would be clear.

But, this person is still pretending to be him. Does he have something to rely on?

The person who would appear in this place and replace his identity is someone who is sure that the real Kudo Shinichi will never appear.

The only one who knew that he had become Conan was...

Haibara and Hattori are here.

Dr. Agasa and Winnet are unlikely

The Black Organization!

According to reasoning, this conclusion is highly probable. But what is their purpose? Did they already know the true effect of the drug, so they came to investigate him, the person whose information was altered by Huiyuan? But if that was the case, there was no need to pretend to be him and do such a dangerous thing.

A guy with such a disguise skill...

Kaitou Kidd!

Kudo Shinichi didn't know why he had such an idea. The possibility was low, but it was not impossible. He knew nothing about him, but he knew that he was a detective. Combined with the information about Kudo Shinichi's disappearance, it was not surprising that he wanted to confirm it. Even revenge was possible. Because he had been his opponent and assisted the police, causing him to flee in embarrassment.

Even if they were not mortal enemies, they were definitely not on friendly terms. But attacking Xiaolan had already touched his bottom line.

Who is he?

He turned his gaze from Winnett back to his own and continued reasoning, "After you bought the drinks for them, you only had to pretend to add creamer and sugar to the drinks at the counter of the beverage stand, and then you could mix in the poisoned ice cubes."

"Just wait a moment."

Miss Noda interrupted him: "But Mai didn't add creamer or sugar herself!"

Mr. Mitani also spoke for the other party, saying that the same two things were found in Urata's pocket.

"That's because she found out that it was actually Coke after she added the poisonous ice cubes. If she had continued to add more, it's very likely that Urata would not drink it." Winnett said, "And the reason why she took it before the play started was that she didn't want the drink to be returned. Once the play started and the lights in the stadium dimmed, even if you had this idea, it would take a lot of effort."

"But how did she carry the ice mixed with poison with her?" Megure asked.

Kudo Shinichi took out a light purple wallet and said, "I found this in the trash can at the door of the restroom - a plastic wallet with a metal collar."

Megure sent Takagi to have it sent for identification.

"I see." Winnett interrupted the conversation, "All you need to do is add a freezing medium, such as a small piece of dry ice, into this wallet to effectively prevent the ice from starting to melt."

"After that, just give the drink containing poison to Mr. Mitani, then run to the bathroom, flush the dry ice down the toilet, and throw the wallet into the trash can. Miss Hongue Mai, am I right?" said Kudo Shinichi.

"He does look a bit like a famous detective. But you didn't forget that I ordered black coffee just like Dr. Urata, and I gave both cups of coffee to Mr. Mitani. I didn't know which cup of iced coffee he would give to Dr. Urata, so how could he have poisoned it?" She said, "Then again, if I bet on a 50% chance of winning or losing, then Ayako could have the same chance."

Winette denied her statement, "No, the probability is 100%. As long as you put poisoned ice cubes in both iced coffees."

"How is that possible!" Megure was shocked.

Because Hong Shang Mai's cup was also empty, it was really unbelievable that she drank the whole cup of drink knowing that it contained poison.

Kudo Shinichi said: "As long as you finish the drink as soon as possible before the ice melts, you will be fine."

"Even if that's true, her drink cup didn't show any toxic reaction. If she wants to avoid being suspected of forcing the ice cubes to go somewhere, she will be suspected by the audience around her."

"What if she pretends to chew ice cubes after drinking it, like Mr. Urata did, and then puts the ice cubes in her mouth?"

"what!"

"Just spit the ice into your palm afterwards and hide it there secretly."

Kudo Shinichi found the coin he borrowed from Hattori, put it on his thumbnail, and made a coin-flipping motion. "And there is --" As his coin rose, everyone's eyes shifted, landing precisely on Miss Mai's hood.

Hattori knew what he was going to do and pulled up her hat in advance to cooperate with his cool move.

Winette saw this and admitted that this famous detective was indeed quite capable. After all, she only had a guess as to where Hong Shang Mai hid the ice cubes, and she had not gone to collect the so-called evidence.

Finding evidence of a crime is what detectives need to do. People who are also good at committing crimes don't need this kind of authority. Most of the time, they don't even need to understand the entire process of the crime. Just listing the suspects is enough. However, since it's Kudo Shinichi now, I'll still cooperate a little.

"Although holding poisoned ice cubes in your mouth is a dangerous behavior, it can be avoided as long as you make sure the poison has not melted in the middle of the ice cube," she said.

Megure is still confused, wondering why Kudo is so sure that the poison is in her hood. At this time, Hattori appears and takes the coin out of the hood with a handkerchief. Under the lights of the gymnasium, the coin is still shining. Redox reaction.

"I see. But how did you know she hid the poisoned ice cubes in her hood?" Megure asked.

"This is because--"

“Because it’s raining.”

Kudo Shinichi's words were interrupted by Hong Shang Mai.

She said self-deprecatingly, "It was raining outside. Just now, when I took Officer Takagi to find Dr. Urata's car, I didn't pull up my hood. Is that why you started to doubt me?"

"Yes, that's when I began to suspect that you were worried that the potassium cyanate would melt in water, so you didn't pull up your hat."
