I travel through countless worlds at the same time

"No!"

"Besides, I remember the air conditioner was turned off when I left."

Yoko Okino looked at the air conditioner and frowned slightly.

79. Case Solved

"It's not just the air-conditioning temperature that's weird, it's also this puddle of water!"

“As for the high temperature, is it intended to affect our judgment of the time of death?”

“And the placement of this chair is weird.”

Conan squatted on the ground, investigating the traces in a serious manner, but this scene looked very strange in the eyes of the adults.

"he is?"

Inspector Megure-looks at Kogoro Mouri.

"Ahahaha... Sorry, Officer Megure, this is a child that a relative has placed in my home. He was inspired by me and likes to play detective games because he sees that I like reasoning."

Higashino Yu hurried forward and grabbed Conan's head.

"Apologize to everyone quickly."

"But, what I said was obviously correct, whether it was the water stains, the high temperature, or the strange placement of the chair."

"Yes, yes, you are right. But solving cases is something that adults do. Can you be quiet for a while, Edogawa Conan?"

Higashino You stared at him intently, calling his name word by word. The aura emanating from his body was so invisible that everyone present couldn't help but shiver.

Looking at Higashino Yu who looked like a hungry ghost from hell, Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but think of what happened a few days ago when the other party punched a big hole in the wall.

Then he looked at his head which was still held in the other person's palm.

The smile on his face suddenly froze.

"like!"

"Very good. I like obedient children the most."

Patting his head gently, Higashino You smiled with satisfaction.

This action made Conan shudder subconsciously.

After "comforting" Conan, Higashino Yu turned his head and looked at Inspector Megure.

"Inspector Megure, it seems that the circumstances of this case are very clear."

"Ah? Brother Dongye, we haven't done anything yet, how come you've made it so clear? Isn't it too early for you to draw conclusions?"

Inspector Megure, who was directing everyone to collect evidence, was stunned when he heard this.

"That's right, Higashino boy, this concerns Miss Yoko's reputation, so you can't jump to conclusions!"

Kogoro Mori on the side also said.

"Of course, I am well aware of this. That is why I want to solve this ridiculous prank as quickly as possible."

"Brother Dongye, you said this was a prank? Someone is dead!"

When Inspector Megure heard this, his expression suddenly became serious.

Although he was very optimistic about Higashino Yuu, he was still a little angry about Higashino Yuu's irresponsible words.

"But what I said was the truth. It would be fine if this guy committed suicide, but he actually framed others before committing suicide. Saying that he was playing a prank was just giving face. In my opinion, this guy can be called a murderer!"

"Brother Dongye, did you say this man committed suicide?"

Higashino Yu's words made Conan feel like a flash of lightning passed through his mind, and he couldn't help but open his eyes wide.

"Yes, this is obvious."

"But this knife was stuck in this man's back. How did he commit suicide?"

Inspector Megure looked at the situation in front of him and couldn't help but say.

"Normally speaking, you can't do this, but what if you use ice to fix the knife to the ground?"

"Brother Dongye, are you saying that this puddle of water is actually ice?"

"That's right! If you don't believe me, Officer Megure, you can test it. You might even find that the temperature of this puddle of water is lower than that of normal temperature water. This is sufficient evidence that this water is melted from ice."

"Officer, it is indeed as Mr. Dongye said. The water in this room is 18 degrees Celsius at normal temperature, but this puddle of water is only 8 degrees Celsius."

The evidence collector on the side said immediately after completing the measurement.

"But even so, you can't say he committed suicide."

Although he said this, Inspector Megure's tone had softened somewhat.

"Of course there are more clues left here. You know, the force used in homicide and suicide is different. I'm afraid Uncle Maori has discovered this a long time ago."

"Ah? Hahahaha, that's right, I saw there was something wrong here a long time ago!"

Kogoro Mori was stunned at first, then immediately put his hands on his hips and burst into laughter.

But in reality, he was thinking, who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

But of course Higashino Yu would not do something like lifting someone up and then dropping him down.

This is not only out of respect for predecessors and elders, but also because the other party is Mao Lilan's father.

After all, this case was mainly taken by Maori Kogoro. If he became famous, would the final payment be given to him or Maori Kogoro? Higashino Yuu would naturally not do such a thing that offended others and was not pleasing.

"Then I'd like to trouble Uncle Maori and I to demonstrate to you all."

When Kogoro Maori heard what Higashino Yu said, he was stunned at first and then immediately nodded.

"Oh well!"

"So if this is a knife, Uncle Maori, what method would you use if you want to kill me from behind?"

Higashino Yu handed a ruler to Maori Kogoro.

"Of course that's the case." Kogoro Mori stabbed down with the knife without even thinking.

"this!"

The knife in his hand had just stabbed halfway when Kogoro Mori suddenly stopped and widened his eyes.

"There's something wrong with the force of the wound!"

..... ........ ...

"That's right. If a normal person wants to injure someone from behind, they usually hold the knife in their backhand and stab downward at an angle, which results in an oblique wound. However, this person's wound was vertical. This kind of wound is not normally caused."

"Ah~ I see. It seems like you have really grown a lot recently, Maori brother!"

Inspector Megure raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but smile.

At the same time, the police who were investigating the identity of the deceased also found the diary left by the deceased, which once again confirmed that the inference of Higashino Yuu and Maori Kogoro was correct, and the other party did commit suicide.

"It looks like this case can indeed be closed."

"Hehe, of course. I'm the most professional detective in Japan, Kogoro Maori. Hahahaha..."

"I never thought that celebrities have so many troubles. But then again, is there really no way to create parallel wounds when stabbing someone in the back?"

At this time, several people were walking on their way back, and Mao Lilan looked at Higashino Yu and asked curiously.

"How could there be such a wound?"

Kogoro Maori said while waving his hands.

"No, it's actually possible, like this."

As he spoke, Higashino Yuu put his arms around Conan, who was standing next to him, and then waved his arms.

"But if you want to do that, the other person needs to be very tall. If such a suspicious person appears, I believe the apartment manager will not fail to notice it."

"That's true." 2.

80. It’s not over yet

"Hahahaha, no matter what, not only did I get to meet Miss Okino Yoko this time, but I also got a handsome reward. It's really a big win!"

At this time, Kogoro Mori was showing off a check for 500 million yen in his hand and laughing proudly.

"But, have we really solved the case?"

Conan stroked his chin and suddenly became curious.

Upon hearing this, Kogoro Maori's face suddenly turned dark.

"Hey! What do you mean, kid? Are you questioning my ability as a famous detective?"

"But it's so strange. Sister Yoko asked us to find out if the items in the room were moved and if someone was secretly watching her, but these two points were not shown in that gentleman's diary. Isn't it strange?"

"Humph! What's so strange about this? This kind of thing must have been done by the man himself. Otherwise, how could he open Miss Yoko's room?"

　"Five-eight-three" "But..."

"No buts! You little brat! I've put up with you for so long!"

As he spoke, Kogoro Mouri's sandbag-sized fist hit Conan hard on the head, and immediately a large bump appeared on his head that was visible to the naked eye.

"Is that really the case? Dongye?"

As Xiaolan spoke, she subconsciously turned her gaze to Higashino Yuu.

Higashino Yu hugged his shoulders and looked away.

"Ah! That's what this is all about."

……

"That's not the case!"

"Ah? Mr. Dongye, what do you mean?

At this time, they were still at Yoko Okino's house, but unlike the morning, this time there were only Higashino Yuu and Yoko Okino in the room.

Looking at the high school student Okino Yoko sitting on the sofa, there was some confusion on her face.

"The fact is that although my reasoning this morning was correct, I overlooked a very important issue, which is how your ex-boyfriend, Mr. Fujie Akiyoshi, entered your home, Ms. Okino Yoko."

"Ah? Didn't Mr. Yamagishi say that his key was lost two days ago? So it must be Fujie who stole it."

Okino Yoko speculated, stroking her chin.

"But this is just your speculation, Miss Yoko. Is it really like that, Mr. Fujie Akiyoshi?" As he spoke, Higashino Yu looked behind Okino Yoko.

"Mr. Dong... Mr. Dongye, what are you talking about?"

Seeing Higashino Yuu looking behind her, the smile on Okino Yoko's face suddenly froze.

A feeling like a thorn in my back suddenly came over me, and I even felt a cold wind blowing at my back.

"Nothing, I just wanted to tell you the first half of this story, Miss Yoko, so I wanted you to be a little more alert."

Higashino Yuu smiled softly.

"After all, this is a mission taken on by my friend's father. I don't want you, Miss Yoko, to come to my door and say that the mission was not completed."

That's right, this is the reason why he came to see Yoko Okino again in the afternoon. After all, it seems that only Yoko Okino and Akiyoshi Fujie are involved in this case, but in fact, there is a third person involved.

That is the female star who debuted in the same period as Yoko Okino - Yuko Ikezawa.

The one who had been following her was Ike Ze Yuko, the one who entered her house was also Ike Ze Yuko, and even the one who moved Okino Yoko's furniture was still Ike Ze Yuko.

Even Fujie Akiyoshi's suicide this time was closely related to Ike Ze Yuko.

"Is that so..."

Looking at the earrings that Higashino Yu took out from under the sofa, Yoko Okino nodded. Having seen all the shit in this circle, she had a general idea of ​​what was happening to her.

"Thank you, Mr. Dongye, for taking the time to inform me. I will handle the rest myself."

Yoko Okino smiled and bowed slightly to Higashino Yuu, but the cold light in her eyes could not be concealed.

Although she has always given outsiders the impression of being weak, anyone who really thinks she is a girl who is easy to bully is very wrong.
