"You've got all the information..." Chu Ming glanced at him, "What are you going to do if I fall asleep too? Go out by yourself?"
Conan shook his head honestly, took out a small bottle from his pocket, filled it with some water, and held it up to show Chu Ming: "I plan to wake you up physically, and then let you get up and go with me."
? ? ? ?
Chu Ming felt heartbroken as he looked at Conan, who had obviously become a bad person.
Have you been transported through time?
why is it like this?
Why do you have such evil ideas in your mind at such a young age?
terrible!
This kid doesn't learn his lesson now, it looks like he's going to get a beating.
Looking at Chu Ming's increasingly malicious eyes, Conan laughed dryly twice and explained dryly: "Ha, haha, I was just kidding, brother Chu Ming, you won't believe it, haha, hahaha..."
Chu Ming still looked at him unkindly: "So you are quite humorous, huh?"
"I was wrong, I was wrong!" Looking at Chu Ming's moving wrist, thinking of the prisoner who had several teeth broken by Chu Ming's kick, Conan immediately slid down and knelt down to admit his mistake, "This is what I brought with me to wake myself up tomorrow, hahahaha..."
Chu Ming took the bottle from his palm and said, "Don't worry, I will wake you up on time tomorrow."
"..."
While chatting and laughing - or rather, it was Chu Ming who was joking one-sidedly, the two came to the Suzuki family's garage, where several cars were parked, but without exception, the doors were locked.
"What should we do? We can't wake up Sonoko and the others and ask them where the key is?" Conan was in a dilemma.
Chu Ming took out a piece of wire from his side: "How about... using this?"
"..." Conan couldn't believe it, "Isn't this bad?"
Chu Ming retracted the wire and pulled out a baseball bat from behind him. He had just taken it from the stairs when he came downstairs. "Then use this?"
"Behave yourself, Brother Chu Ming!" Conan jumped up and hugged his hand, "You are not here to rob! There are surveillance cameras here, if you continue like this the security will come!"
Chapter 477 I don't know what the question is
Conan stared in amazement as Chu Ming, relying on the fact that he was a guest of the Suzuki family, tricked the security guard into telling him the location of the car keys, then drove away with Conan. From a distance, the security guard was still waving at them with a smile on his face.
Conan turned his head and looked at Chu Ming with admiration: "Brother Chu Ming, you are so eloquent."
"Must-have." Chu Ming and Conan were bragging while driving, but it wasn't really bragging. Conan had the buff of the protagonist, so he would answer any questions asked by ordinary people.
"Let's park the car not far outside and then sneak over to see if he is destroying the evidence," Conan suggested.
Chu Ming freed up one hand and waved the prepared phone: "Don't worry, I will take pictures of everything as evidence."
"...It's the middle of the night now, can we take a picture?" Conan was a little skeptical.
"No matter whether we can take the picture or not, if we catch him, we can still use it to trick him."
The two got out of the car far away. The lights in the villa were still on. Chu Ming and Conan sneaked towards the villa from the woods behind and found that the police car was still parked at the door.
The two men looked at each other in confusion. It had been at least two hours since Kogoro Mori received the call and Yamamura So asserted that it was suicide. After so long, shouldn't the police have withdrawn their team?
Why is the police car still parked inside? Could it be that Shancuncao was smart enough to discover something?
Knowing that the police were still there, Conan immediately came up with an idea. He no longer hid and took Chu Ming's hand and walked inside.
The forensic officer at the door seemed to have seen Conan before, and was shocked to see him coming in holding Chu Ming's hand: "Isn't this the little brother of Detective Maori? Why are you here? What are you doing here so late?"
Conan falsely conveyed the imperial decree: "Uncle Maori asked me to come here. He said he thought of some doubts and asked me to come and take a look."
The forensic officer didn't suspect anything at all and just stepped aside to let Conan in.
How come you don't have any doubts at all? Is the name of Maori Kogoro so useful? Which adult would be so unreliable as to let a child come to check in the middle of the night to see if there are any doubts!
After Conan entered, he did not rush forward. Instead, he stopped and asked the forensic officer: "Uncle, didn't they say it was a suicide case? Why hasn't Officer Yamamura left after so long?"
"When Officer Yamamura was about to leave, he noticed that the light cord was a little long. Mr. Maori believed that the victim was still alive before they left because they found the light was turned off halfway through the journey. However, Officer Yamamura thought that this might be a trap set by Mr. Akashi.
For example, lengthen the light cord, and then use a certain mechanism to turn off the light at a fixed time, creating the illusion that the person is not dead yet.
The deceased was clearly hanged, but blood was strangely flowing from his mouth, and there were signs of being tied up on his wrists. There are a lot of suspicious points, and the Shancun police officer is now questioning..."
Chu Ming looked at Shancuncao in a different light. He originally thought he was a stupid policeman, but he didn't expect that he had some vision.
"Thank you, uncle. Let's go in first~" Conan greeted him sweetly, then pulled Chu Ming in.
As soon as he entered, Yamamura Cao saw him with sharp eyes: "Conan! Isn't this Conan! Where is Mr. Maori! Where is he? I knew that Mr. Maori could also find something wrong. It seems that I can hear Mr. Maori's great reasoning again today! Hey, has Mr. Maori not gotten off the car yet? I'll go pick him up!"
Conan quickly stopped the enthusiastic Officer Yamamura and said, "Wait, Uncle Maori didn't come. He just felt something was wrong, so he asked me and Brother Chu Ming to come together. Officer Yamamura, you haven't met Brother Chu Ming yet, right? He is Uncle's eldest disciple. Uncle said his reasoning ability is good enough, so Uncle sent him here this time."
Chu Ming had a face full of question marks. Conan's ability to lie with his eyes open would be greatly enhanced when he met the police related to the case.
However, he acted very cooperatively. When Shancuncao ran over enthusiastically, he still raised an official smile and said nonsense: "Officer Shancun, I heard from my master that you have a sharp eye and can see through loopholes at a glance. It's true that seeing is believing."
Yamamura Cao was overjoyed when he heard this: "Really? Mr. Maori really praised me like that? I knew that Mr. Maori was the only one who was my confidant and could see through my true nature beneath the surface! But you're not bad either, a good teacher produces good students. With a master like Mr. Maori, it's possible for you to catch up with me in the future, hahahaha..."
Conan looked at the complacent Shancuncao and Chu Ming, who was also speechless but still smiling, and couldn't help but laugh. These two really dared to speak and listen...
Apart from anything else, when did Uncle Maori mention Officer Yamamura? The only time he mentioned him, it seemed like he didn't say anything good...
After a brief exchange of pleasantries between the adults, Chu Ming went straight to the point: "Officer Shancun, what did you find out from your investigation?"
Akashi Hiroto looked at him with anger: "Mr. Chu Ming, you came at the right time. This police officer has been saying that I killed my father, and that I deliberately made the cord of the light so long to facilitate the crime. But I didn't do it. You have all seen my father before and know that he is short. I only made the cord of the light longer to make it easier for him to turn on and off the light. It has nothing to do with my method of committing the crime!"
"Then what method did you use?" Chu Ming asked suddenly.
Akashi Hiroto didn't react for a moment: "It's not this!"
As soon as he said this, he realized something was wrong and said angrily, "I already said it wasn't me. How could I kill my own father?"
"He's not his biological son." Chu Ming stared at him. Previously, Chu Ming had copied the program of Noah's Ark through a replicator and hung it under System 33, so that the DNA tracing technology could be used at any time.
When Chu Ming realized that Akashi Hiroto might have killed his father, he checked and found that they were not biological father and son.
No wonder he could do this.
"How do you know?" Akashi Hiroto was a little shocked. He clearly didn't tell them these things, so how did Chu Ming know?
"I guessed." Chu Ming glanced at Akashi Hiroto and responded casually, "You are so tall and your father is so short. You don't look like a family."
"..."
Chapter 478 Today Chapter 2
"You are so rude." Akashi Hiroto looked very angry, and did not mention the slip of the tongue just now. "I am indeed the child adopted by my father and his family, but whether he is adopted or not, he is still my father. Why would I kill my own father!"
"Why? I'm not you, how would I know why you are doing that?" Chu Ming looked speechless.
Seeing Chu Ming holding on to his words, Ming Shikuan's face sank, "Mr. Chu Ming, when you were in trouble, I didn't add insult to injury, I sent you back immediately, and I didn't even take care of my father. I didn't realize in time that he was trying to end his life..."
Akashi Hiroto even choked up as he spoke: "But how could you——"
Seeing that Akashi Hiroto was even trying to pass the blame on, Chu Ming stopped him immediately. It was so funny, he was the only one who tried to pass the blame on, and no one could ever put the blame on him.
"Excuse me, Mr. Akashi. After you sent us back, you clearly told you in the car that your father was very sad and wanted to commit suicide." Chu Ming emphasized the word suicide. "Under such circumstances, you actually stayed there for more than two hours after sending us to our destination. Compared to your current appearance of being a filial son, isn't it a bit ironic?"
Chu Ming didn't have any other feelings about Akashi Hiroto's killing behavior. Instead, after the killing, he still had to pretend to be a loving father and son. The key point was that his acting skills were not that good.
tui~
Akashi Hiroto was choked. He was about to retort when Conan, who had just squeezed upstairs, came running back, followed by a police officer with a forensic bag: "We just found a tooth in the curry rice that the victim ate. It was determined to be the tooth that the victim lost. And there was a handkerchief next to the victim, and this little brother found some traces of bite marks on it."
Chu Ming looked around, lowered his eyes and thought for a moment. There was no clear evidence in this case to prove that it was Hiroto Akashi who did it. Even if he could deduce the facts through reasoning, he could not convict Hiroto Akashi.
After Chu Ming arrived here, he had already obtained the magnetic field, so he was not very enthusiastic about whether he could solve the case.
"Mr. Mingshi, is today your wife's death anniversary?" Chu Ming just heard a few police officers talking outside, saying that Mingshi Kuan was unlucky. His wife died unexpectedly a few years ago, and now his father committed suicide...
"Yes..." Akashi Hiroto's eyes sharpened as he thought of his wife. "She collapsed in this forest and died from exhaustion caused by the rain."
"What does this have to do with the case?" Shancun Cao was a little confused.
"If I'm not mistaken, your wife's death—" Chu Ming paused and dropped a thunderbolt, "should it be related to your father?"
"How do you know?!" Akashi Hiroto blurted out.
Chu Ming understood in his heart, he knew that the story was so bloody. It was obvious that Akashi Hiroto was deeply in love with his wife. He killed his adoptive father on the anniversary of his wife's death, obviously to commemorate his wife.
That's how it's played out in TV dramas.
Chu Ming looked at him clearly. Akashi Hiroto met his eyes that seemed to see through everything and lowered his head dejectedly: "Yes, I killed him."
???
Conan and Yamamura Cao both looked at Chu Ming with magical eyes. Conan's eyes showed admiration. He was worthy of being Brother Chu Ming. The words published in the newspaper before were sharp and could grasp the details to defeat the criminals' hearts. It turned out that they were not written nonsense.
"My wife was sick and resting at home that day, and I drove out to work. It was my father who asked my wife to go out to buy vegetables in the heavy rain, saying that he wanted to eat mushroom fried rice. My wife walked to the supermarket three kilometers away to buy vegetables, and she fell on the way back..."
Conan frowned: "Is this why you killed your father? Although this matter was caused by him, but——"
"Of course not!" Akashi Hiroto suddenly became excited. "What do you know! It was him. He did it all. I heard it all. He said that he finally broke this toy and he would find a toy as durable as me in the future! I always thought that he made many troublesome requests to me because he treated me as his own son, but in fact..."
Conan was silent for a while. In his speculation about the method of committing the crime, Akashi Hiroto tied his father's hands with the electric light cord, tied a rope around his father's neck, stuffed a piece of rope into his mouth and then hung him up. The rope blocked his mouth, so he couldn't speak. His hands were tied and he couldn't move. The old man could only bite the rope with all his strength until he was exhausted and waited for the moment of death to come.
Just thinking about this kind of death seemed extremely tragic and cruel, but after seeing what the old man did, Conan only felt a little sad.
Chu Ming did not have as many feelings as Conan. He who kills will be killed. This is a truth that Chu Ming understood in his previous life. Moreover, people like Akashi Hiroto could be said to be very kind before, but he changed the moment his wife was killed by her adoptive father. After all, when a kind person has nothing, why should he be required to be kind?
He just felt that this method was a bit low-level. There were only two of them living in the deep mountains and forests. As a middle-aged man, it shouldn't be difficult for Akashi Hiroto to kill the old man quietly, right?
Why do you have to find a so-called eyewitness to watch you commit the crime?
Chu Ming felt that he couldn't understand why these murderers were obsessed with their so-called alibis, but even though he didn't understand, after Akashi Hiroto confessed his guilt, Chu Ming picked up Conan, who was standing aside with a visibly serious expression, said hello to Officer Yamamura, and left.
After all, the two of them had sneaked out, so it would be better for them to go back quickly.
-
Well, people still can't do bad things.
Chu Ming and Conan looked at each other, and stood there quietly without saying a word to Kogoro Mouri, Ran Sonoko and others in the hall who were obviously in a low mood.
Who knew that Kogoro Mouri would get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, and his sudden fatherly love kicked in, so he decided to go and see if Conan's fever had improved.
As a result, the bed was empty.
I thought the child went to the toilet, but I waited and waited and there was no one in the toilet. I wanted to ask Chu Ming for help to look for him, but Chu Ming's room was also empty and I couldn't get through to Chu Ming on the phone!
