Chapter 967 It’s All the Name’s Fault

"Hey, Sister Yui." Conan took advantage of the opportunity for the adults to chat about rich men, pulled on Yui Yua's sleeves, and asked in a low voice, "Why did Officer Yamato ask the detective for help? Don't you feel embarrassed?"

"This." Yui Uehara glanced at Yamato Gansuke and smiled happily, "Because there is a person who he is unwilling to lose no matter what, who also participated in the investigation of this case~"

"So, that person is also a policeman?" Conan asked innocently.

The conversation they thought was hidden had actually reached Yamato Gansuke's ears clearly. After hearing this question, Yamato Gansuke warned in a deep voice: "Uehara! We are going in."

Uehara Yui straightened up quickly: "Hey, hey, I got it!"

Conan wanted to continue asking, but unfortunately there was a fierce police officer Yamato here, and it seemed that he could not get the answer he cared about for the time being.

However, just after they entered the Death Hall, Yamato Kansuke suddenly stopped Nobushige: "Mr. Asano, you should be able to answer Conan-kun's question, right?"

Mouri Kogoro said impatiently: "Stop chatting about gossip that has nothing to do with the case. My agent is not there to help troublemakers. Why is it that 'Asano should know' about all the problems? In this case, let's just find someone If Asano explains it carefully, won’t this mystery be solved?!”

"I'm sorry, Mr. Mori." Yamato Gansuke apologized very insincerely, but because he always had a sinister face and his tone of voice rarely fluctuated, this perfunctory was not obvious, at least to Mr. Mori. Goro couldn't notice it, "I just remember that Mr. Asano knows the police officer Uehara mentioned, right?"

"I can't call him an acquaintance." Nobuhiro replied calmly, "I also heard about it from Kudo. I only know that he is a police officer from the Shinno Bureau under the Nagano Prefecture Police Headquarters."

Conan looked confused.

What on earth are you talking about and why does he, who is supposed to be an insider, not understand at all.

Mr. Asano seemed to have discussed this issue with Officer Yamato at the last joint investigation meeting of the Metropolitan Police Department. The other police officer they mentioned seemed to be called...

"The police officer and Xiao Gan have been classmates since elementary school, and they seem to compete in everything. However, he is a top student who graduated from Toto University Law School with first place, and later entered the non-professional group. The Nagano Prefectural Police Headquarters is a very powerful guy." Yui Uehara said with a smile, "That person, like Xiao Gan, has the name of a military advisor~"

"Uehara!!" Although there was nothing he could do to Uehara Yui, Yamato Kansuke still scolded him with a straight face.

A name like military advisor...

Conan pinched his chin and fell into deep thought.

correct! He remembered!

The police officer's name is Zhu Fu Gaoming.

When Nobushige asked Yamato Gansuke about his brother's current situation, Mouri Kogoro was also present. It stands to reason that he should know this matter better than Conan, who followed the investigation meeting through a bug, but the uncle had not thought of the relationship between Zhuge Kongming and Zhufu Gaoming at all, and was still in a state of confusion.

"It's a coincidence." Conan raised his head and said innocently, "Officer Yamato's name is pronounced exactly the same as Takeda Shingen's military advisor Yamamoto Kansuke."

Yamato Gansuke glanced at him and said nothing, or it would be more appropriate to say that he didn't want to talk to him.

Conan didn't feel annoyed either. He continued: "I remember that Takeda Shingen's younger brother seems to be named Takeda Nobushige. So Officer Yamato is actually Asano's brother's military advisor?"

"Click——"

Conan turned around in shock and looked at Asano Nobushige, who was clenching his fists: "Brother Asano?"

"Conan-kun, do you know that it is very impolite to joke about other people's names?" Nobushige smiled gently, not scary at all, "How do Mr. Mori and I usually teach you?"

"R-I'm sorry?" Conan apologized confusedly.

What happened to Mr. Asano? He suddenly became so scary.

Yamato Gansuke looked away indifferently and fell on Uehara Yui: "Uehara, show them the photos of the six young people who once lived here."

"yes!"

Yui Uehara took out the folder she carried with her and took out six photos: "The top photo is of illustrator Shusaku Akashi, the second is of actor Naoki Suikawa, the third is of novelist Aoi Kobashi, and the third is of fashion. Designer Shoji Yamabuki, CG creator Takuto Momose, and finally musician Shiro Naoki.”

Mouri Kogoro looked at the photos one by one and frowned in confusion: "I seem to have heard these names before."

"Because they are all very outstanding figures in their respective industries." Yui Uehara said.

Yamato Gansuke added: "The rich man rented this annex to them for almost free because he took a fancy to the talents of these six people and hoped to support them until their dreams come true."

"However, not long after the transfer procedures were completed, the rich man passed away, and these six people also left the House of Hope after independence. Until five years ago, only a couple who met here still lived there. In the House of Hope.”

Mouri Kogoro pointed at the door and asked, "What is that? It looks like it was covered with paper before."

"Ah, it should be colored paper." Before Uehara Yui spoke, Conan had already explained, "Aren't the names of the six people who lived here originally related to color? I think they were distinguished by color. In each other’s rooms.”

"It's not just a room." Yamato Gansuke's voice came from above.

They looked up and saw that Yamato Gansuke had already reached the second floor: "These six people seem to use the colors that represent their respective names even in daily life."

Saying that, Yamato Gansuke took out a piece of paper and showed it to them.

It was a cooking duty list, and what was written on it were not the names of these six people, but the colors they represented.

Mouri Kogoro looked puzzled: "Wait a minute, where are the names of these six people related to colors? There are obviously no words that represent colors in their names, right?"

"It's the pronunciation." Nobuhiro explained.

Conan didn't know how to hide his excessive edge. As soon as Nobushige opened his mouth, he already said the following words: "Akashi Shusaku's Akira has the same pronunciation as Kurenai. By analogy, each of their names can be Represents a color, just like Officer Yamato and Kansuke Yamamoto. Right, Asano-nii?"

Nobuhiro: "..."

Can you please stop mentioning it? Although Yamato Gansuke didn’t seem to realize anything, he was really flustered!
