Chapter 683 Shocked! The long-missing Kudo Shinichi is hiding here? !
the next day.
Ran Mao Li refused to go with them and chose to go shopping with Toyama Kazuha.
Kogoro Mouri is not interested in demon dogs or anything like that, he would rather go to the racetrack to watch the race.
So, Yuya, Conan and Hattori Heiji came to the adopted son's home together.
Looking at the name on the nameplate at the door, Conan was dumbfounded: "Kudo... Shinichi? No way???" (Kudo Shinichi and Kudo Shinichi are pronounced exactly the same.)
Yuya tried to suppress his laughter, patted Conan's head and said, "I didn't expect that a high school detective who had been missing for so long would live here without anyone noticing? Is this what they call a great hidden treasure in a city?"
"Hahahaha!" Hattori Heiji couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"I'm so annoyed by you two!" Conan almost became autistic. He slapped Yuya's claws away, glanced at him with contempt, jumped up angrily and slammed the doorbell.
"Ding dong!"
"Excuse me, who is this?" An auntie's voice came from the intercom.
"We are detectives hired by Mr. Shinichi!"
Conan was stunned: "Why is it a woman's voice?"
Youye smiled and said, "Could it be that Mr. Shinichi is actually a woman?"
Conan's forehead darkened: You're not done yet, are you?
Hattori Heiji smiled and said seriously, "I heard that his waist is not good, so he hired an aunt to take care of him. He can't even go to the company anymore."
The door opened.
An auntie was standing at the door. She was a little surprised to see Yuya and the other two, but she still said, "Um, Mr. Kudo is still sleeping... Anyway, you guys come in first."
Led by the aunt, two adults and one child came to the door of Shinichi Kudo's bedroom.
The aunt knocked on the door and shouted, "Mr. Kudo, the detective you had an appointment with is here!"
But no one responded.
The aunt opened the door carefully. Yuye and the other two looked out and saw a man who looked like an uncle lying on the bed and sleeping soundly.
"You're sleeping so soundly." Youye said.
Conan sniffed, glanced at Kudo Shinichi who was still covered with a quilt, and asked in confusion: "Is this room too hot?"
The aunt explained, "Mr. Kudo seems to have a cold, and he went to bed very late last night because he was thinking about something, so... But looking at the time, he should be waking up soon."
Yuya and the other two suddenly realized that they were probably thinking about the demon dog.
Hattori Heiji said: "In that case, let's just wait for a while."
Yuya and Conan had no objections. It was still early and there was no need to rush.
The auntie closed the door, sighed and said, "If you are detectives, I hope you can help Mr. Kudo. I really can't do anything."
The three of them showed puzzled expressions.
In the restaurant, the aunt poured tea for Yuya and the other two.
Yuya took a sip and asked, "What do you mean by Mr. Kudo wanting to die?"
The aunt showed a slightly frightened expression on her face and said, "Yes, he said this is better than being eaten by the demon dog."
Yuya narrowed his eyes, looked at Hattori Heiji and said, "It seems that Uncle Kudo also saw the demon dog."
Hattori Heiji nodded slightly: "Probably..."
Yuya tapped the table with his fingers, and after a few breaths, he said, "Anyway, we don't know the specific situation yet, so we can't do anything. Auntie, please notify us as soon as Uncle Kudo wakes up, okay?"
The aunt nodded: "I understand. But I have to go out to buy groceries now, can you please look after the house? I will be back as soon as possible."
"No problem." Youya made an OK gesture.
After the auntie left, Conan coughed and looked at Yuya with empty eyes: "I say, can you stop calling me Uncle Kudo all the time?"
Yuya was stunned for a moment, and looked at Conan in a puzzled manner: "What's wrong? The guy called Kudo Shinichi (Shinichi), it's not too much to call him uncle according to his age, right?"
Conan's mouth twitched slightly, he was speechless, too lazy to continue talking to Yuya, he lowered his head and drank his tea.
Yuya shrugged and took out his phone to play.
After a while, Conan suddenly looked at Hattori Heiji: "Speaking of which, have there been any other cases related to the demon dog?"
Hattori Heiji said: "No. But I just wrote down the names of those eight people..."
He took out his phone and opened the memo, which listed a series of names: "Shinichi, Koko, Saki, Chiaki, Migako, Zenya, Yingji, and Yukihime."
"It seems that these names were chosen by the deceased president himself."
Yuya asked casually, "So, who are the two who have passed away?"
Hattori Heiji was about to say something when suddenly music started to sound.
The music continued for a long time without stopping. The three of them followed the sound in confusion and came to the door of Kudo Shinichi's bedroom.
"What's with that sound?" Hattori Heiji frowned slightly.
Conan said tentatively: "It should be an alarm clock ringtone? In addition to ordinary sounds, music can also be used."
Hattori Heiji knocked on the door, but there was no response.
He reached out to turn the handle and tried to push the door open, but was surprised to find that the door was stuck with tape and could not be fully opened, and he could not see what was in the room.
"Bump it open!" Youye said decisively.
Hattori Heiji took a step back, took a deep breath, gathered his strength, and used an iron kick to slam the door open.
The three rushed into the room and were shocked to see Kudo Shinichi lying on the ground at some point.
The windows facing them were also taped shut, and there was a charcoal stove in the middle of the room for heating.
The three of them left the room without hesitation and closed the door behind them.
"Suicide by burning charcoal?" Hattori Heiji asked in a deep voice.
Conan: "It looks like this..."
Yuya said: "Hatori and I will go and tear off the tape on the window, Conan, you go and move the charcoal stove out of the room."
Conan nodded vigorously.
The three of them looked at each other, took a deep breath at the same time, and opened the door again.
Yuya and Hattori Heiji rushed directly to the window, one on top and one on the bottom, and quickly tore off the tape.
Conan came to the charcoal stove, squatted down and tried to lift it up, but he was suddenly stunned when he touched it.
"Swish, hiss!" The sound of the tape being pulled off.
"What, what happened?" Suddenly, the aunt's surprised voice sounded at the door.
The three of them were shocked.
Yuya tore off the last piece of tape that was preventing the window from opening, yanked it open, and turned around to shout, "It's carbon monoxide poisoning! Stand there and don't come in!"
Then he leaned out of the window, gasping for breath.
"What, what?" The aunt was startled and looked terrified.
