Detective Conan: Birth of the Demon Child

Upon hearing this, Ran Mouri instinctively responded and skillfully dialed the police number.

While the police were waiting for them to arrive, Hattori Heiji and his group began to search the study. They soon found a poisoned needle gleaming coldly near Tsujimura Isao's body.

Perhaps it's because nobody believed that someone would dare to kill someone right under the nose of a famous detective.

Therefore, after Kogoro Mouri and his friends discovered the poisoned needle, although they suspected that the murderer was hiding in this house, they subconsciously ruled out Kimie Tsujimura.

Judging from the fact that Tsujimura Isao's body was still warm, it is clear that he had been dead for no more than half an hour.

Half an hour earlier, Kimie Tsujimura was at the Mori Detective Agency, and she has not left the public eye since.

If it weren't for the fact that Suzuki Seimei had watched anime in his previous life, he honestly wouldn't have imagined that Tsujimura Kimie would be the murderer.

"Sister Xiaolan..."

Ran Mouri, whose clothes were being pulled by Seimei Suzuki, bent down and asked gently, "Is there something you need, Seimei?"

"..."

Just as Suzuki Seimei was about to expose Tsujimura Kimie's murder method, he suddenly noticed the extremely serious and thoughtful expressions on Conan and the other two's faces, and the words he was about to say suddenly became stuck in his throat.

"Seimei, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing~ Sister Xiaolan, can you hug me?"

"Of course you can."

Ran Mouri smiled gently, opened her arms, and picked up the cute little guy.

Suzuki Seimei nestled contentedly in Ran Mouri's arms, glancing at Conan and the others out of the corner of his eye, thinking to himself, "This case is now in your hands, you three great detectives!"

If there were no detective present, Suzuki Haruaki would be willing to act as a detective and solve this murder case as soon as possible.

However, with three detectives present and clearly showing signs of wanting to outdo each other, it would be unreasonable for Suzuki Haruka to give away any more spoilers.

As the saying goes, "Spoilers may feel good for a moment, but they'll send your whole family to their doom."

In his past life, Suzuki Seimei had also bought the "Detective Conan" manga a few times. However, one time, his mischievous roommate used a black pen to draw a circle on the character in the manga and wrote "He is the murderer" next to it, thus ruining his entire set of manga.

Later, in order to "repay" his lousy roommate, Suzuki Seimei took advantage of the time when the roommate went to chat with a prostitute in the red-light district about his life ideals, and promptly called to report him, pulling him back from the brink of crime.

I often walk by the river, how can I not wet my shoes?

It's better to let that lousy roommate go to jail early than to let him get deeper into trouble and catch all sorts of weird diseases later.

Hopefully, he can understand my good intentions!

I really am a good person who repays evil with good.

Soon, the sound of urgent police sirens came from outside the door, and Inspector Megure and his men immediately cordoned off the crime scene.

Upon seeing Kogoro Mouri's familiar face, Inspector Megure couldn't help but remark, "Hey Kogoro, it's you again!"

Chapter 71 The main account is about to launch (Please vote and add to your favorites)

To be honest, Inspector Megure is also a scientific atheist, but lately he keeps running into Kogoro Mouri at crime scenes.

Moreover, this guy usually arrives faster than the police, which makes Inspector Megure wonder if he has been tainted by something strange.

Faced with Inspector Megure's speechless gaze, Kogoro Mouri gave an awkward smile. "What a coincidence, we meet again."

"So this is also a murder case, Mori-kun?"

Before Kogoro Mori could answer, Heiji Hattori blurted out, "That's right! The deceased died from poisoning. You can see a small red dot next to his hairline, and there's an iron needle that looks like the murder weapon lying next to the body. In addition, his lips and fingertips have started to turn purple. I speculate that he was poisoned by a kind of nerve poison that can kill instantly."

Furthermore, considering that the body was still warm when we found it, I can be certain that he had been dead for no more than half an hour. Therefore, the murderer is very likely someone in this family.

?)?Д?(

Upon hearing this, the Tsujimura family members' expressions changed drastically, clearly disbelieving that their own family had killed their master.

Inspector Megure asked with some surprise, "Brother Mouri, who is this guy?"

"His name is Hattori Heiji, and he's a teenage detective."

"Heiji Hattori? So you're Heiji Hattori!" Inspector Megure exclaimed with a look of sudden realization. "I heard that the current Osaka Police Chief, Heizo Hattori, has a son who's in high school and is quite the amazing high school detective. You must be him, right?"

"You flatter me." Hattori Heiji nodded modestly.

"Since there were no signs of forced entry on the study door lock and windows, the only person who could have killed the victim and locked the door would be the one with the study key."

Inspector Megure stroked his chin and pondered for a moment before turning to Kimie Tsujimura and asking, "Mrs. Tsujimura, may I ask how many spare keys there are for this study, and where are they kept?"

Kimie Tsujimura said, "There are only two keys to the study. Besides the one I have, the other key is kept by my husband. He usually keeps the key in his pants pocket."

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure immediately went to the victim's body, rummaged through his pants pockets, and quickly found the study key in the right pants pocket.

Ding-dong!

Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

Heiji Hattori and Conan's expressions changed drastically when they saw the key slip out of the victim's pocket.

Since the second key was in the victim's pocket, the study could be considered a complete locked room.

This is a locked-room murder case!

Heiji Hattori and Conan suddenly became excited as they thought about this. The more complex and bizarre the murder method, the more interesting it would be to solve.

When Hattori Heiji saw Inspector Megure and the others still standing there in a daze, he couldn't help but urge them, "What are you still doing? The incident should have happened between 3:30 and 4:00 pm. What you need to do now is to quickly find an alibi for the person who might have committed the crime during that time!"

"Takagi, what are you all standing there for? Hurry up and go!" Inspector Megure first gave the order to Inspector Takagi and the others, then pulled Kogoro Mouri aside and whispered, "Mouri, you can't lose. Do you want to lose to this kid?"

To be honest, police officers like Inspector Megure actually dislike so-called famous detectives.

The more skilled a detective is, the more incompetent the police appear. For example, Shinichi Kudo, who is known as the "savior of the police," is practically slapping the police in the face.

However, Kogoro Mouri is different. He is not a high school detective, but a detective who resigned from the Metropolitan Police Department.

Compared to those high school detectives, Inspector Megure clearly prefers his old colleague, Kogoro Mouri.

Moreover, Heiji Hattori is the son of the Osaka Police Chief. If he solves the case before Inspector Megure and his team, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department will lose face big time.

"That is……"

Conan stared at the bookshelf in the study for a while, and suddenly noticed a very obvious gap in the bookshelf. Combined with the books on the desk, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

Judging from the arrangement of the books on the bookshelf, the books on the desk all seem to have been taken from the same place, and it doesn't feel like they were carefully selected, but rather just grabbed and put out at random.

"Could it be..."

Conan glanced at the stereo next to the bookshelf and recalled the scene when they entered the study earlier, where their eyes were drawn to the stereo. A flash of lightning suddenly struck his mind, connecting all the possibilities.

Just as Conan was preparing to find an opportunity to tranquilize Kogoro Mouri and quickly solve the case, a sharp pain suddenly came from his heart. His head felt like it had been hit hard with a hammer, his vision began to blur, and he fell to the ground with a 'thud'.

"Conan! Conan, are you alright?"

Seeing this, Ran Mouri quickly put Seimei Suzuki down, picked up Conan who had a dazed look in his eyes, touched his burning forehead, and said with a worried expression, "Why is he so hot? I have to take you to see a doctor."

"Ran-neechan, it's too late!" Suzuki Seimei's expression changed slightly as he advised, "It would be better to cool Conan down with cold water and a wet towel first, and then call a doctor."

If Ran Mouri were to take Conan to the hospital and then have him perform a magic trick of disappearing into thin air in front of the doctor, that would be hilarious.

After all, a drug that can reverse aging would easily win a Nobel Prize.

A living medical miracle like Conan would surely be locked up in a research institute for slow study, wouldn't he?

Fortunately, Ran Mouri wasn't stubborn. After hearing what Haruaki Suzuki said, she gave up her plan to take Conan directly to the hospital.

Ran Mouri explained Conan's situation to Takayoshi Tsujimura, who then readily offered his bedroom to Conan as a temporary resting place.

"Seimei, I'll go get the doctor. Please take care of Conan." Ran Mouri wiped Conan's body with a damp towel, then gave Seimei Suzuki a few more instructions before hurriedly leaving the Tsujimura residence.

"I……"

Watching Ran Mouri's departing figure, Seimei Suzuki opened his mouth, but could only sigh helplessly in the end.

Although Suzuki Seimei didn't want to reveal that Conan was Shinichi Kudo yet, Ran Mouri had just said that, so it seemed a bit unreasonable for him to abandon Conan.

Oh well! If we're exposed, so be it. At worst, we'll just have less fun!

Chapter Seventy-Two: The Real Transformation

"Ah ah ah..."

Not long after Ran Mouri left, Conan, who was lying on the bed, suddenly started convulsing and uncontrollably let out a painful groan.

(ΩДΩ)

Although Suzuki Haruaki was prepared, he still showed an expression of disbelief when he saw Conan's body grow larger at a visible speed.

To be honest, Suzuki Seimei could barely accept Shinichi Kudo becoming Conan.

After all, large objects lose some energy and can indeed shrink.

But it doesn't make sense for Conan to become Shinichi Kudo. Did the energy he needs to go from an elementary school student back to a high school student just appear out of thin air?

This unscientific!

Even a fantasy skill like alchemy must follow the law of conservation of energy.

While Suzuki Seimei could use basic-level Alchemy to reshape and fuse ten kilograms of steel into a five-kilogram longsword, he could not create a longsword weighing more than ten kilograms.

Newton must be turning in his grave!

"Huhuhu..."

As Conan's clothes were completely torn apart, he returned to his high school student body, but his head was still a little dizzy and he didn't react immediately.

Seeing Suzuki Seimei's horrified expression, Kudo Shinichi asked weakly, "Seimei... Seimei, why are you looking at me like that?"

"Shin...Shinichi-nii, you're Shinichi-nii!" Suzuki Seimei pointed at Kudo Shinichi with feigned shock, his starry eyes filled with disbelief.

"Seimei, what nonsense are you talking about? I am Ke..."

Upon hearing this, Shinichi Kudo's pupils contracted sharply, and he instinctively tried to retort, but he froze halfway through his sentence, "My voice, my hand..."
