Chapter 686 Yuya: Shiho, you actually did this secretly in the middle of the night

In order to investigate the truth, Yuya, Miyano Shiho, Hattori Heiji, Toyama Kazuha, Conan and Mori Ran, a group of six people got in a car and headed towards the Inufushi family in the mountains.

Because the sports car had not been repaired yet and it couldn't accommodate so many people, Youye specially rented a larger car.

Hattori Heiji touched the seat and looked at Yuya with contempt: "Do you have so much pocket money to rent such a nice car?"

Yuya sat in the passenger seat, leaning back in the seat and yawning comfortably: "My parents have not given me pocket money for a long time, all the commissions are earned by myself. Don't you often take commissions? Don't tell me you don't have money."

Hattori Heiji was speechless for a moment.

Yuanshan Heye smiled and helped explain: "Heiji will not charge any extra fees for accepting commissions except for food, lodging and transportation, so..."

Youye said "oh" and actually forgot about it.

Hattori Heiji snorted and said proudly: "I accept commissions to solve cases. Making money is not my goal!"

Youye said dimly, "Me too, but the client just forced it on me. After all, if word gets out that I'm hiring a famous detective like me and doing it for free without paying the commission, the client won't be able to accept it, right?"

Hattori Heiji's mouth twitched slightly. What are you talking about? It's as if I have no fame.

Yuya turned his head and saw an old man with a hunched back walking slowly on the side of the road with a cane. He signaled Miyano Shiho to stop the car.

Yuya rolled down the window, greeted him and asked, "Old man, there should be a house of the Inufushi family nearby. Do you know where it is?"

"Inufushi?" The old man stopped and turned slowly, revealing an old face under his hat. "What's the matter with going there?"

Yuya smiled and said, "It's nothing serious. I just came to solve a mystery related to the puppy curse."

The old man raised his head slightly, and his eyes under the brim of his hat revealed a creepy light: "Don't blame me for saying something unlucky. If you go in with a playful mood, be careful not to get burned all over your body."

"Huh?" Hattori Heiji raised his eyebrows.

Yuya smiled faintly: "So you know where their home is?"

Seeing that Youye and the others had no intention of retreating, the old man said nothing more, raised his hand and pointed to the sky and said, "It's on the hillside of that mountain. You can see it. The house that looks like a castle is right there."

"The Inufushi family is also a mansion cursed by a dog spirit."

Youya lowered his body and looked through the windshield. Sure enough, he saw the upper part of a house, which really looked like an ancient castle.

"Thank you!" Youya thanked him.

Miyano Shiho stepped on the accelerator and the car drove along the mountain road towards the Inufushi family.

On the way, Toyama Kazuha poked Hattori Heiji's arm and asked, "Heiji, did pearls really fall out of the mouth of the corpse of the adopted son named Shinichi?"

Hattori Heiji nodded and said, "Yes, I think he might have put the pearl on the tie clip into his mouth before he was killed by the murderer."

Miyano Shiho glanced at Yuya and asked, "Is it a death message?"

Yuya nodded: "It's possible."

"Is it possible?" Miyano Shiho was a little confused, "Why?"

Conan interrupted and said, "The uncle's saliva was indeed on the tie clip, but there were no bite marks on either the tie clip or the pearls..."

Yuanshan Heye was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

Hattori Heiji looked at her with disdain and said, "Idiot, there are only two possibilities for this. Either the pearl was originally very loose and you bit it off without much effort, or the murderer deliberately put the pearl into the victim's mouth to mislead the police or to convey some message."

Yuya received: "Considering that the case is related to the legendary demon dog, I personally prefer the latter."

"I see." Yuanshan Heye nodded suddenly. She looked at Conan with admiration and said, "But Conan, you are so amazing. It seems that you and the two of them have such a good understanding!"

Conan was shocked and said with sweat dripping down his face: "Ahaha, it was brother Yuya and brother Heiji who told me, right?" He winked at the two of them frantically.

Yuya and Hattori Heiji looked at each other, grinned and said, "Yes, yes."

Yuanshan Heye didn't think too much and said with a smile: "Conan seems to be your assistant!"

Conan's mouth twitched slightly: What assistant!

Mao Lilan forced an awkward smile, but didn't dare to say anything more, for fear that she would accidentally say something wrong and arouse Toyama Kazuha's suspicion.

"Yes, yes." Yuya and Hattori Heiji laughed.

Conan's forehead suddenly turned dark. Damn it, these two guys took advantage of him again!

Miyano Shiho suddenly said, "But it's strange. If the murderer killed for the inheritance, then Mr. Shinichi, who has already given up his inheritance rights, is not important? Why did he kill him?"

Yuya pinched his chin and said, "If it's not for the inheritance, then the murderer has a blood feud with the Inufushi family, and he wants to kill him even if Mr. Shinichi gives up his inheritance rights."

"Or maybe, killing Mr. Shinichi was to mislead others. There have been cases like this, where the murderer deliberately attacked innocent passers-by in order to get rid of himself, thereby confusing the police investigation."

"It is indeed possible." Conan and Hattori Heiji thought about it and nodded.

Mao Lilan said: "I remember that there are eight adopted sons of the Inufushi family, right?"

Yuanshan Heye nodded: "Yes, they are all half-sisters. In that case, one of the eight people really was an imposter, right? They took this opportunity to take revenge."

Mao Lilan, who has watched many TV dramas, also expressed her own thoughts: "Even if they are biological children, they may still feel resentment, right? After all, their father has ignored them for so many years..."

"The woman who was abandoned after being raped died with regret, and her son and daughter came to seek revenge on their father, but found that the man had died of illness. So they transferred their hatred to the Inufushi family and wanted to kill other people to make the Inufushi family extinct?" Miyano Shiho suddenly said.

Mao Lilan was stunned. Although Miyano Shiho's words were a little scary, she still nodded blankly: "It does feel that way."

Yuya looked at Miyano Shiho in disbelief, and suddenly asked, "You've been staying up late lately, are you watching some family ethics drama?"

Miyano Shiho blushed after being exposed and stuck out her tongue: "I found it by accident. I thought it was interesting so I took a look."

Youye covered his forehead speechlessly. No wonder he often saw no one around when he woke up in the middle of the night. He thought Miyano Shiho went to the toilet, but he didn't expect that she was doing such a thing secretly.

Mao Lilan laughed dryly. She didn't expect that the TV series Mio watched was much more exciting than the ones she watched.
