Conan: The Heart Thief

"Brother Lin, you came just in time..."

Inspector Megure told Lin Xiao about the five suspects.

Lin Xiao nodded to show that he understood, and then took Inspector Megure to a tree next to the house.

"Inspector Megure, look over there." Lin Xiao pointed at a tree.

"Is there anything there?" Inspector Megure asked in confusion.

Lin Xiao really doubted his life. The Japanese police were so incompetent that it was outrageous. The murder weapon was just a big lump hanging on the tree, but it couldn't be seen.

"Take a closer look." Lin Xiao pointed to the exact location of the tree.

Inspector Megure took out the walkie-talkie and ordered someone to go and see what that thing on the tree was.

The forensic personnel brought professional tools and took the evidence from the tree off the book. They found that it was a bloody shirt discarded by the murderer. When they opened the shirt, they found a blood-stained dagger and a thin wire stuck together with tape.

"We found the murder weapon!"

Inspector Megure discovered that the bloody clothes were the uniform worn by the servants, so the murderer must be Sakuraba Yuji!

"This bloody shirt is the uniform of the servant Sakuraba Yuji. The murderer must be Sakuraba Yuji! There is no doubt about it." Inspector Megure said like a fool, taking it for granted.

Lin Xiao rolled his eyes at Inspector Megure in annoyance and said, "That's not necessarily the case. It's also possible that the murderer was wearing Sakuraba Yuji's clothes to commit the crime."

When Lin Xiao said this, Inspector Megure was dumbfounded: "Brother Lin, who is the murderer?"

"Inspector Megure, look at this bloody shirt, it is completely stained red with blood. It is obvious that after the murderer committed the crime, the blood had seeped into the murderer's skin. During this period, the murderer had no time to take a shower. Therefore, as long as we use the luminol reagent to test the suspect's body and make a blood reaction, the truth will be clear at a glance."

"good idea."

Inspector Megure picked up the walkie-talkie and immediately ordered his men to do it.

All the suspects cooperated well, except Kikuto Morizono, but he was forcibly held down by the police for testing.

Faced with overwhelming evidence, Kikuto Morizono had no choice but to plead guilty.

The incident was resolved, and Lin Xiao received the personality mask as a reward from the system.

[Water Ghost: One of the four ghosts commanded by Fujiwara Akane, who can cause floods and eventually fall into nirvana and disappear.

Special ability: Flooding. 】

Sakuraba Yuji suddenly jumped up and punched Morizono Kikuto in the eye. He was furious and said, "Why did you kill Uncle Shigematsu? Your own company went bankrupt and it was Uncle Shigematsu who helped you keep it afloat!"

Morizono Kikuto sneered, "You are to blame for all this. If you hadn't been fooling around with my fiancée, old man Shigematsu wouldn't have asked me to cancel the wedding. He thought he could control me and my life just because he found out that I embezzled funds from the company. He was so naive! You are just a servant, but you can never remember your identity. Let me tell you, Shigematsu's death is because of you, hahaha!"

When Kikuto Morizono was being taken into the police car, he did not forget to mock Sakuraba.

Yuji Sakuraba's expression remained unchanged, and finally he lowered his head. Katagiri Kaede beside him looked at Yuji Sakuraba worriedly.

When Mikio Morizono saw that it was really his son who killed the butler of the family, he sighed deeply and his face looked gloomy.

When Morizono Yurie saw her brother being arrested, she sighed and naturally cancelled the wedding.

The atmosphere was heavy. Hattori Shizuka comforted Morizono Mikio with a few words and was about to leave, but was stopped by Morizono Mikio.

It was getting late, and Lin Xiao was also left behind.

However, Lin Xiao did not intend to sleep obediently. Instead, he took advantage of the beautiful moonlight to have a tryst with Aunt Jinghua.

Chapter 107: Hitting

Under the moonlight, Lin Xiao is handsome and elegant, otherworldly and like an immortal.

"Should I respond to such a handsome young man?"

After a mental struggle, Hattori Shizuka decided to keep the appointment. She had been practicing Buddhism, not letting her body and mind go undisciplined, and had kept her virginity pure. Now that she had lost her virginity, there was no need to continue.

Hattori Shizuka glanced at Toyama Kazuha who was sleeping soundly on the bed, put on a long gown over her pajamas, and went downstairs to find Lin Xiao.

At this moment, Lin Xiao was sitting in the courtyard, bathing in the moonlight.

"Lin Xiao." Hattori Shizuka came and sat down next to Lin Xiao.

Seeing the graceful Hattori Jinghua coming over, Lin Xiao chuckled and said, "Aunt Jinghua, you still kept your appointment."

Hattori Shizuka put on airs and said seriously, "I just have insomnia and I have nothing to do, so I just want to keep you company."

Lin Xiao gently took Hattori Jinghua's hand: "Aunt Jinghua, I like you, can you stay in Tokyo?"

Lin Xiao felt that Hattori Heizo could not give Hattori Shizuka happiness, but he could! If Hattori Shizuka stayed in Tokyo, he was confident that he could turn Hattori Shizuka into a happy woman.

The night sky is like a dark blue curtain, dotted with twinkling stars, which makes people deeply intoxicated. The night is quiet and people are asleep. In the quiet and peaceful, the light moonlight, together with the dance music of the night, sprinkles on the ground. There are crickets everywhere. The fragrance of the night permeates the air, weaving a soft net, covering all the scenery.

Lin Xiao transformed himself into a friend of women and started chatting with Shizuka Hattori, mainly about her past.

Lin Xiao learned that Shizuka Hattori's real name was Ikenami, and she belonged to a prominent family in Kyoto. Her marriage to Heizo Hattori was a purely superficial marriage. The two grew up together as childhood sweethearts. Their innocent childhood life did not foster love, but only family affection. Heizo Hattori became disabled during a work mission and was no longer a complete man. Shizuka Hattori married only because she sympathized with Heizo Hattori's experience, and because she wanted to concentrate on her practice. She cared about Heizo Hattori just like a sister cared about her brother, and there was no love between them.

After the couple got married, they adopted the Japanese-African mixed-race child Hattori Heiji and treated him as their own son.

Hattori Shizuka was raised with the traditional education of Japanese Chinese women. She fulfilled her duties as a good wife and mother. She experienced complete family affection but never love.

Lin Xiao realized his responsibility, and as a close friend of Hattori Heiji, he must give more care and love to Hattori Heiji's mother.

Although Shizuka Hattori was diligent in her practice, she only practiced in seclusion after getting married, and she did not improve much. Of course, she was one level higher than ordinary people. Just like in the cartoon, Shizuka Hattori used a folding fan to block a sword. The reason why this kind of anti-physics and anti-common sense happened is because Shizuka Hattori is not an ordinary person at all.

"Aunt Jinghua, I can be your Taoist partner!"

"Aren't you too young for a kid like you?"

"I'm very strong!" Lin Xiao said confidently, "Aunt Jinghua, don't believe me. Let's set a time so that you can have a sparring match with me."

"It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive in time. There's no need to make another appointment. Let's go to the Morizono family to spar now." The corners of Hattori Shizuka's rosy lips raised slightly. She had long wanted to teach a lesson to the disrespectful high school detective.

"At Senyuan's house?" Lin Xiao was confused.

"Yes, Morizono Mikio's late wife, who was also my classmate, was also a kendo enthusiast. The Morizon family has set up an indoor dojo. I'll take you there."

"Okay, let's go."

The two came to the Morizono family's kendo dojo. Although the Morizono family did not use this dojo, the Morizono family's servants cleaned it every day.

Therefore, the dojo is very clean and tidy, and all kinds of equipment are available.

Lin Xiao suddenly changed the subject and said, "Aunt Jinghua, in the middle of the night, you and I came to a place like this alone. Aren't you afraid that outsiders will gossip about us?"

Hattori Shizuka said righteously: "Who dares! I am the wife of the Osaka Prefecture Police Superintendent!"

"Okay. If you want to fight, then I will!" Lin Xiao has a powerful personality mask, how could he be afraid of Hattori Shizuka?

"Very good. I have long wanted to teach you a lesson on behalf of your parents and correct your wrong values."

Aunt Jinghua smiled, thinking about how she had been bullied by Lin Xiao and had lost all her dignity before. Now she could finally teach him a lesson in broad daylight.

Soon, both sides put on their protective gear, got into position, and prepared for a fight.

Lin Xiao is equipped with a personality mask - Okuninushi, and has obtained the ancient swordsmanship of the Japanese Age of Gods. How can Hattori Shizuka be his opponent?

After saying that, Lin Xiao assumed the starting stance of kendo, holding his breath and staring directly at Hattori Shizuka.

Hattori Shizuka: "Noodles!"

Lin Xiao: “Little hand!”

They both shouted at the same time! "

Hattori Shizuka raised her hand high and tried to hit Lin Xiao in the face, but Lin Xiaoze made a clever move and hit Hattori Shizuka's left hand from the side.

"Snapped!"

Lin Xiao missed the target and hit the left little hand, but hit the side of Hattori Shizuka's armpit. Lin Xiao felt that the bamboo sword in his hand was directly bounced off by the ball.

Hattori Shizuka let out a soft snort and hit Lin Xiao in the face with the bamboo sword in her hand, but she had no effect.

"Ahem - my skills are not good enough, I was rude just now!" Lin Xiao apologized in a fake manner with a very serious expression.

"It doesn't matter." Having said that, Hattori Shizuka was secretly complaining in her heart, wondering if Lin Xiao knew kendo or not, as no one was qualified to play in this position.

Hattori Shizuka: "Bang!"

Lin Xiao: "Cun!"

Well, Lin Xiao missed the target one time. The bamboo sword in his hand attacked Hattori Shizuka's right side, but hit Hattori Shizuka's round big butt instead.

With a "pop" sound, Hattori Shizuka let out a soft groan and weakly tapped Lin Xiao's throat with her hand.

"Lin Xiao, did you do this on purpose?" Hattori Shizuka felt very ashamed. She had never been spanked like this since she was a child.

"It was an accident, purely an accident—" Lin Xiao continued to argue.

"You little rascal, I, your aunt, will not forgive you." Hattori Shizuka started to get serious.

However, things did not change, Lin Xiao always hit the ball at the right time. He could hit the ball at the right time in the four scoring methods of "Thrust, Small Hand, Body, and Face". Before long, Hattori Shizuka's buttocks were hit by countless bamboo swords, and it must have been red.

Of course, Lin Xiao was a gentle man, and he only wanted to beat Hattori Shizuka so that she would feel something, not that he really wanted her to get hurt.

After the fight, Shizuka Hattori was sweating and her face was red. She wanted to teach Lin Xiao a lesson, but ended up being humiliated by Lin Xiao again.

Hattori Shizuka was furious. She took off her head protective gear, letting her black hair spread out. She held the bamboo sword tightly in both hands, looking murderous.

"Lin Xiao, prepare to die!"

Chapter 108

Under the tree, the orange-glowing glass roof can be seen, and the mist rises from the gorge. The quiet lilac bushes, the flowers have not yet bloomed, immersed in the moonlight. All the flowers, wet with dew, can be clearly distinguished from each other. The light and shadow are mixed together, as if they are not made up of trees and roads, but transparent houses swaying back and forth...

In the indoor kendo field of the Morizono family, Hattori Shizuka tried her best but still lost to Lin Xiao. This is not because Hattori Shizuka is not strong enough, but the enemy she faced was not only a detective like Lin Xiao, but also the Japanese sword god Okuninushi!

"Aunt Jinghua...are you okay?"

Seeing Hattori Shizuka slumped on the wooden floor, gasping for breath, Lin Xiao quickly took off his protective gear and then went forward to help Hattori Shizuka take off her protective gear.

I saw that Hattori Shizuka's face was red and her clothes were soaked with sweat.

"Of course I have something to do. You bastard, you are deliberately bullying me, right?"

"It's really a misunderstanding..."

"My...my body is all swollen from you beating me, and you still say it's a misunderstanding."

"Let me see."

"What are you looking at?"
