Chapter 98 What Is Image?

"If you come in by water, it will inevitably leave water stains on the floor by the window." Xin Fan pointed to the ground and said, "The Japanese room of this shop uses the kind of woven brown mats, and water will seep in. It’s not clean at all.”

Conan immediately nodded in agreement: "There is no water damage in this box at all!"

Mori Kogoro frowned and thought: "So, the murderer can only come in through the main entrance? But neither the customer nor the clerk found out... Could it be that the murderer was the clerk??"

Police officer Mu Mu gave him a sideways look: "All the shop assistants here have alibi."

"Speaking of which..." Xinfan asked strangely, "Professor Yan Jian and Lecturer Arai are the only two in the whole shop who don't have an alibi, right?"

"Ah, so the murderer is among them!!!"

Professor Yan Jian's expression was pale: "What are you talking about? How could we kill brother Jintian? Didn't the murderer be the one who made an appointment with him in private? What's more, I have been staying in room three Inside, it should be..."

"This kind of thing that must be met in private and is easy to be killed, should be very confidential, important, or even invisible?" Xin Fan asked, "In this case, why can't they find a more suitable time to meet? When colleagues celebrate him?"

"Didn't you tell me everything? At the beginning, Jintian denied that he had reserved room No. 8, so the murderer must have reserved that box in his name." Mori Kogoro spoke impatiently for the murderer again.

"That's even more wrong." Xin Fan smiled and looked at Professor Yan Jian, "Because only the three of you should know about the celebration, right, Professor Yan Jian?"

He had already completely remembered the motive, the process of the murder, and Conan's reasoning.

It's just that this time, due to his meeting with Sira at the Maori Detective Agency, a lot of time was delayed, and Maori Kogoro and the others arrived at the restaurant much later than originally.

Xinfan was very worried that Conan would miss some details and reminders.

Perhaps because Xin Fan's tone was too firm, Police Officer Mu Mu was taken aback for a moment before he said numbly, "But Professor Yan Jian has an alibi."

"Huh?" Conan exclaimed in surprise.

Seeing several people looking at him, Conan quickly put on a smirk.

Officer Mu Mu seriously explained to Xin Fan: "When they asked about Room 4 just now, they said that they heard Professor Yan Jian yelling and the sound of closing the window from Room 3 around 7:50."

Professor Yan Jian immediately said, "Yes, I couldn't find my contact lenses, and I knocked over the saucer."

Mori Kogoro's eyes suddenly became meaningful: "Asano's previous reasoning is correct, so the only suspicious person without an alibi is you, Lecturer Arai!"

"Ah?" Arai was confused, "It wasn't me, I didn't kill anyone! After Jin Tian left, the professor asked me to buy a pack of cigarettes for him, so I went out." He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. cigarette.

At this time, Anxi Jingzi also remembered: "That... I told that gentleman where to buy cigarettes."

Both had alibi, and now the mess that seemed finally unravelable turned into a mess again.

"Brother Asano!" Conan poked Shinshige's arm, "Brother Asano, who do you think is the murderer?"

Xin Fan looked down at the past: "Now that everyone has alibi, it may not be easy to judge the murderer. But we can start to reason from the method."

"I think so too!"

The fun of being a detective lies in reasoning, and it would be too boring to be alone all the time.

In the past, when he was Kudo Shinichi, he could still show off to the police while looking for clues by himself. But now, as a child of six or seven years old, any abnormal behavior would be suspected. Conan said it was difficult for him.

It's hard to meet someone who doesn't despise him because of his status as a child, and who has a strong logical thinking ability. Conan was so excited that he couldn't help but have an epic reasoning cooperation with Asano Nobushige now.

Conan thought for a while and decided to take advantage of his age: "Then let's investigate those ships first, and I'll ask Miss Anxi Kyoko."

After that, he went to Anxi Jingzi with his short legs.

As soon as Conan left, Silla came over and said to Xinfan: "Mezcal, who do you think is the murderer?"

Shinfan: "..."

He sighed silently, then turned around and asked, "Did you choose the wrong profession? I think it was a good idea for you to go directly to the Maori Detective Agency to apply for a detective job."

"Really?" Sira's eyes lit up, "I also think that detectives seem very interesting, and Japanese detectives are very popular, and the commission is not low, which is very suitable for use as a side job."

Xin Fan choked for a moment, speechless: "Being a detective is easy to be targeted by the police. Also, don't call me by my code name when you don't have a mission."

"Okay, Mei... Asano-san."

While speaking, Conan had already obtained Anxi Kyoko's permission, and he happily found Shinshige: "Brother Asano, let's go to the pier to have a look!"

"Okay." Xin Fan didn't talk to Silla any more, and left directly.

The NPCs in this world all have a passive skill - answering the protagonist's questions 100% and agreeing to the protagonist's request.

Just like now, when a murder case just happened in the store and the police are still investigating the truth of the incident, Anxi Jingzi can even agree to the children's request to visit the pier.

Anxi Kyoko led Conan and Xinfan all the way through the back kitchen and walked to the place where the boat was placed on the pier. Since the restaurant has been controlled by the police, everyone in the back kitchen is very leisurely, sitting together smoking and chatting, without any tension or worry at all.

It's as if there is still a line of words on the forehead: Isn't it just a dead person, so why make a fuss about things that you can see all day long.

Conan watched Anxi Kyoko take out the key to open the door, and asked, "Is this door usually locked?"

"Yes, this way no one will come in." Anxi Kyoko replied with a smile.

Conan nodded seriously, looking like a detective.

Anxi Kyoko couldn't help laughing, and said to Xinfan: "As expected of Mr. Mori, this kid was brought here. He looks like a real detective."

Conan Half Moon Eyes.

What is like? What is - like? ? ? !

Obviously he is the famous detective with deep merit and fame, okay?

Xinfan also smiled and said: "Yes, so Mr. Mori often asks Conan to help him find some clues. Although they are all done according to the adults' orders, the subtle influence on Conan should also be great."
