Conan: The Unscientific Uchiha

Koji Shimizu felt a little strange, but more of it was confusion. If he remembered correctly, about two hours ago, Kogoro Mori returned to the room with Ritsuko Usui, and judging from their condition at that time, something should have happened between them, right?

But unexpectedly, when they met again, Kogoro Mouri was actually sleeping soundly, and Miss Usui, who was originally very angry, had turned into a cold corpse.

If the two men were not fully clothed, he would have been tempted to speculate whether Uncle Maori had played some exciting game and accidentally killed them.

"It was a murder in a closed room."

After checking the room, Conan spoke softly to everyone in the face of Sakuho's surprised look.

"That's right, Mr. Saku. If you hadn't knocked on the door, we would have no way of getting in here now."

"Ah, yes, that's right."

Saku Norifumi's reaction was relatively normal and did not attract anyone else's attention.

However, when the two of them finished their conversation, Xiaolan, who had just finished calling the police, walked to Kisaki Eri with a complicated look on her face, "Mom, if it was a murder in a closed room, then Dad would be..."

"Wait for the police to come."

"Don't worry, Xiaolan. Uncle Maori is definitely not that kind of person."

Kisaki Eri spoke in a gentle tone and patted Xiaolan's little hand, while Shimizu Koji turned around and comforted her with a smile.

His somewhat inappropriate behavior surprised Xiaolan a little, but she still nodded seriously and thanked Shimizu Koji softly.

As for Eri Kisaki, she no longer had the mood or energy to roll her eyes at Koji Shimizu, who only wanted to be a father.

No one said anything more and no one moved anything in the room. Although they were not police detectives, lawyers were still practitioners in the same field, so even though the situation was very sudden, they still had the basic qualities.

Everyone was just silently waiting for the police to arrive, and no one even tried to wake up Kogoro Mouri who was still sleeping soundly. Even Xiaolan was no exception, because she was also at a loss. On the one hand, her father was caught cheating by her mother, but on the other hand, it was a murder case. She didn't know what to do, so she simply chose to remain silent and not let her father wake up to face such a tragic reality.

About half an hour later, the police arrived, but the person who came was not the familiar Inspector Megure, but a policeman with a pointed chin and a monkey face who looked a little bit unintelligent.

"Officer Yamamura——"

Conan stared with wide eyes at the policeman leading the team walking down the corridor, and couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice.

"Oh? Do you know him?" Koji Shimizu looked at him curiously.

Conan's frowning brows could no longer relax, and he gave Shimizu Koji a look of headache. Conan didn't know how to explain to Shimizu Koji for a moment, "Uh, anyway, it's very troublesome."

"Oh wow, hello everyone, are you the first to discover the crime scene? There are so many of you?! It seems that this case is very serious!"

Before Shancuncao got close, the excitement and excitement in his words could no longer be contained.

Shimizu Koji was a little confused about Conan's words, but suddenly he understood most of it and couldn't help blinking. "Why does he look quite excited?"

Koji Shimizu is now almost mixed up in both the black and white worlds. He thinks he has seen too many kinds of humans, but people like Yamamura So have once again broadened his horizons.

The other people also had strange expressions on their faces. Hibiki Eri couldn't help but frowned. Only Xiaolan seemed unaware and even took the initiative to step forward and greet him, "Officer Yamamura!"

"Ah!! You are Xiaolan?! Wait! That means!"

Shancuncao was still about seven or eight steps away from the crowd, when he suddenly moved his short legs and ran over. The police behind him were stunned for a moment, but Shancuncao didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He looked at everyone carefully, then suddenly turned around and looked at Xiaolan again.

"Ms. Xiaolan, why can't I see your father, Mr. Maori?!"

"Um, that."

Xiaolan immediately showed a look of embarrassment, but what was coming would come. She raised her hand and pointed at the room, but before she could say anything, Shancuncao rushed in like a crazy star-chaser.

This time, everyone was completely dumbfounded.

Chapter 432 Human Heart

"Ahhhhh!!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

Two screams of fear were heard in the room. When the crowd and the police officers walked into the room, they saw Kogoro Mouri and So Yamamura, whose faces were pale and who were terrified of each other.

Seeing this, Shimizu Koji grabbed Conan's arm, squatted down, and whispered in his ear: "It seems you have to work harder."

"Ah?" Conan was stunned for a moment.

And Shimizu Koji said maliciously: "Why, do you expect this police officer to help your father-in-law get rid of the crime? Oh, or, you want to find another reasonable father-in-law, then it's not impossible-"

"Hey, Shimizu, you're going too far."

Conan rolled his eyes, looking speechless and wanting to complain.

Shimizu Koji looked at Maori Kogoro who was still in shock, chuckled and slowly stood up, "Just kidding, but I really haven't found anything else this time. If the secret room is established, the uncle should be arrested and imprisoned directly."

Of course, Shimizu Koji was not trying to watch the fun on purpose. He was just telling the truth. He didn't need to compete with Maori Kogoro, who had already completely drawn a line between himself and Kisaki Eri. What's more, in this situation, taking the initiative to clear Maori Kogoro of suspicion would actually win Kisaki Eri's heart more.

Conan was a little surprised when he heard this, but he also glanced at Shimizu Koji with some pride, "So you also have times when you admit defeat?"

As he spoke, he took out a small piece of transparent string from his pocket and said, "Look at this."

Shimizu Koji was a little confused, but the moment he took it in his hand, he reacted, "Okay, so it turned out that you were the one who secretly hid the evidence."

"hey-hey."

The transparent rope was very thin and appeared to be in the shape of a broken loop. It was almost easy to guess where this small rope had been tied before.

Koji Shimizu patted Conan's little head without any intention of blaming him, but he put the rope directly into his pocket and walked towards the door of the room, leaving Conan standing there in a daze with a confused look on his face.

"What happened?"

Kogoro Mouri got up with a confused look on his face, glanced at Yamamura Cao, came to his senses, and planned to get out of bed.

But as soon as his feet touched the ground, the originally silent Kenzo Shiozawa and Yuji Mikasa, who had already rushed over, both changed their expressions and shouted loudly: "Wait!"

"N-Nani?!"

Kogoro Mori suddenly dared not move and stood still.

"You can't touch the telephone wire on the ground, that's the murder weapon you used!"

Yuji Mikasa was called by Hoshi Saku shortly after Xiaolan called the police. He had been silent before, but now, he suddenly made a big splash.

"Huh? The murder weapon?"

Kogoro Mouri carefully avoided the telephone wires, put on his shoes and walked over.

He probably didn't seem to be fully awake yet, and Conan and Xiaolan both had a bad feeling in their hearts.

While scratching his head, Maori Kogoro saw Usui Ritsuko lying on the ground, "Hey, why is Miss Ritsuko lying here?"

"Ms. Ritsuko has been killed."

The one who answered was Kisaki Eri, who crossed her arms across her chest, showing extraordinary calmness and composure.

"Kill (⊙_⊙)? Who killed him?"

"Who else could it be, Mr. Mori?" Saku Norifumi said politely, while Shiozawa Kenzo pointed his finger bluntly, "Of course it's you! Mr. Mori Kogoro!"

"Why did you kill Ritsuko?!" Mikasa Yuji followed with accusation in anger.

Although Shancuncao still had no idea what was going on, he quickly waved his hand and stood in the middle of the crowd when he saw the tense atmosphere. "Calm down, our police are here. All the details of the case will have to wait until the results of our investigation come out."

"What's the point of investigating this? Officer, you're not his fan, are you? If you condone criminals like this, I'm going to sue you!"

For some reason, Yuji Mikasa became surprisingly aggressive, completely different from before.

Saku Hoshi also said calmly: "Mikasa, there is no need to sue. If the police officer knowingly breaks the law and shields the criminal, such behavior will lead to public prosecution."

Although he did not mention anyone by name, he undoubtedly directly acknowledged Kogoro Mori's crime.

It seemed that all three lawyers were like this, and they tacitly waited until the police arrived before taking action. If you think about it, it doesn't seem incomprehensible, because those who were present just now were all related to Kogoro Mouri, and even if they took action, there would be no result.

The real relationship between these lawyers and Eri Kisaki is probably not as simple as colleagues. To be more precise, they should be competitors or even enemies?

Koji Shimizu observed all this and didn't know whether his conclusion was accurate, but he knew about some of the cases that Eri Kisaki had been involved in before. Eri Kisaki, the queen of the court, did offend people and arouse jealousy in many ways.

Especially the point about not charging litigation fees, which is simply destroying the jobs of these so-called lawyers, who are the loyal lackeys of capitalists. It is no wonder that such a situation occurs.

It was obvious when they were drinking in the afternoon that those people obviously didn't take Eri Kisaki seriously. Usui Ritsuko and Mori Kogoro were being affectionate with each other, and the others were just standing by and watching the fun.

"Uh, wait, wait a minute, there must be a misunderstanding here. Why would my father kill someone?!"

At the critical moment, Xiaolan stood up. However, at the end, Xiaolan seemed to lack confidence and looked at the calm Fei Yingli at the side, "right, mom?"

After checking the security chain at the door, Koji Shimizu had some ideas in his mind. He walked back to Eri Kisaki silently, intending to ask for her opinion.

But what he didn't expect was that when Hibiki Eri spoke, she shocked him directly, "Article 199 of the Criminal Law clearly stipulates that anyone who kills shall be sentenced to life imprisonment, or a fixed-term imprisonment of more than three years, or the death penalty."

Although the forensic police officers in the room were already busy, they couldn't help but look back when they heard such a powerful speech.

Kogoro Mori, who was the first to be hit, naturally had a look of fear and confusion on his face, but now even Yamamura Cao, who had tried to persuade them to stop fighting at the beginning, silently closed his mouth and looked around with wide eyes.

"Mother--!"

Xiaolan's cry of "Mom" may have brought back some of Kisaki Eri's maternal aura, and she stopped threatening Maori Kogoro. "Okay, I'm talking about the legal provisions, but that doesn't mean the case has been solved."

"Auntie Eri is right."

The timing was right, Shimizu Koji spoke confidently and lightly, attracting everyone's attention. Conan looked indignant, while Kisaki Eri was surprised for a moment, and then, when she looked at Shimizu Koji, there was a bit of imperceptible tenderness in her eyes.

Shimizu Koji hung the string on his index finger and said, "Actually, this room is not a so-called secret room, so Mr. Maori's crime has not yet been concluded."

As he spoke, Shimizu Koji's eyes quickly swept across everyone's faces. If someone could get close to him, they would be able to see the subtle and gorgeous blood-red light in his pupils.

After seeing someone's momentary panic, Koji Shimizu also revealed an intriguing smile.

"You said so, Mr. Saku."

With a sudden change of tone, Saku Norifumi, who had previously attracted little attention, became the target of public criticism.

Saku Hoshi was even more shocked and confused. In just a moment, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. "Ah, I, is, is this what?"

"What do you think, Mr. Saku?"

In the crowd, Conan widened his eyes, and when he looked at Shimizu Koji, his eyes had become filled with doubt and disbelief.

Chapter 433 I will take care of your wife and children, so don’t worry.

"Why, doesn't Mr. Saku recognize this thing?"

"What are you talking about? It's just a piece of rope. Who are you? Are you doubting me? Then please show me the evidence. Otherwise, I can sue you for libel and slander."

Saku Hoshi's panic only lasted a few seconds. After he came to his senses, he not only calmed down, but even tried to bite back.

However, in the eyes of others, such a reaction was not considered desperate, but just seemed a little extreme. Anyway, the mountain village police officer obviously had no doubts and even nodded in agreement.

"Yes, classmate, you can't just suspect someone without any evidence."

Yamamura Cao's tone is quite kind and humorous, but this character is somewhat abstract when applied to a criminal police officer.

"By the way, what exactly is this thing?" Shancuncao scratched his head and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Shimizu Koji was too lazy to complain anymore. He just pointed and directed everyone's attention to the anti-theft chain on the floor of the door. "The anti-theft chain was originally broken, and this piece of rope was the prop that the murderer used to disguise the secret room. It can also be said to be evidence."

"What?! Evidence! Show it to me now!"

Yamamura Cao was horrified and rushed to Shimizu Koji. Shimizu Koji subconsciously took half a step back and then threw the rope directly to the inexplicably excited Yamamura Cao.

After listening to his explanation, the other people in the room more or less understood something. Xiaolan was obviously relieved, Conan looked around with a frown, and only Kisaki Eri looked at Shimizu Koji with an approving smile.

After being confused for a long time, Kogoro Mori finally understood what had happened. He glanced at Saku Norifugi, who had a rather ugly look on his face, and then he cast a grateful look at Shimizu Koji.

In response to Kogoro Mori's gratitude, Koji Shimizu smiled and accepted it.

Then, while the police were taking statements and asking questions, he found Conan alone and took him out of the room.

"How is it, have you found any clues?"

"Um no."

"Really? Don't worry, I won't take the credit from you like I did just now."

Conan's mouth twitched, he rolled his eyes, and said unhappily: "Really? By the way, let's not talk about this for now. How did you suspect Mr. Saku?"

"Want to know?"

Shimizu Koji didn't wait for Conan to nod and hum obediently, but instead received a look of resentment that made the hair on the ground stand on end, "Shimizu, you are really being influenced by that woman Huihara now."

Qingshui Koji didn't get angry when he heard this. He just chuckled and patted his head. "You can say whatever you want, but you can't say this in front of her. She is still thinking about you about what happened two days ago."

"Eh!?"
