201. Performance

"Really, do you think there are scars on the butler's back?"

After taking a bath, when he returned to the room, Kogoro Mouri told him about his discovery to Ran Mouri and Conan.

"Yes, unlike Mr. Kumamoto and Mr. Half, they are a small scar that is only about 15 cm." Kogoro Mori touched his chin and pondered: "But in this case, there is more possibility that the Butler of the Boya is a murderer."

"Why, didn't it mean that the murderer left a big scar on his body?" Mori Ran asked in confusion.

"May Matsumoto Police Chief said that when he cut the murderer, he couldn't see clearly because he was injured. Maybe he didn't know the correct length of the wound."

Kogoro Maori paced in the room and said, "And the murderer seemed to be a very cautious person. After being slashed by the police officer Matsumoto, he quickly drove away from the scene, but the police did not find any fingerprints or blood stains belonging to him from the car he found later.

Judging from the fact that the chair cover with only the driver's seat was removed, it should be that the chair cover that was stained with its own blood was removed, and then the fingerprints left on the car were wiped off."

Ran Maori asked, "But why, based on these words, say that the butler may be a murderer?"

"A person who is truly cautious, even if he does have such scars on his body, he should not be lured out by money, so that he can expose himself and let the police stare, right?" said Kogoro Mori, "You have to know that there is no bloody reaction in the car abandoned by the murderer."

Then, he summarized the clues found so far: "About the scars of the three people, the ones belonging to the big scars are on Mr. Kumamoto's back and near Mr. Half's chest, while the scars on Mr. Joya's back are relatively small.

Mr. Nanmoto claimed that he was very thin when he was a child, while Mr. Half said that he liked to read when he was a child. The boy in Miss Zhuangtang recalled that he knew the sea and fish very well. The drink he liked was ginger drink, the one he liked to eat was sushi and fried noodles, and his personality was very upright. The nickname given to him by his classmates was gali."

As soon as Kogoro Maori said this, Conan's eyes, who was already thinking, suddenly moved, as if he had thought about something.

And the door opened at this time, and Zhuangtang Hu Tao came over with a maid.

"Have the investigation result been released?" she asked.

"That, the exact result has not been found yet." Kogoro Mouri was rarely arbitrary.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, there's still a lot of time, we're ready for midnight snacks." Zhuangtang Hu Tao couldn't hear too much disappointment in his tone.

"It's a midnight snack." When Kogoro Mouri heard this, he immediately threw all the investigations behind his mind.

But Conan smiled silently and said confidently: "If you have a late-night snack, will it be sushi?"

"Yes, you know very well." Zhuangtang Hu Tao was a little surprised.

"Actually, I have something to tell you." Conan said mysteriously.

Zhuangtang Hu Tao leaned over, "What do you mean?"

Conan stood on tiptoe and whispered something in her ear.

"What do you want to say?" Kogoro Mouri expressed his displeasure at the little moves that seemed to be guarding against them.

Chen Xing thought of the smile on Conan's face just now, and knew that he must have discovered the truth.

"So can I do this?" Zhuangtang Hu Tao asked.

"Yeah." Conan nodded with a smile.

"But it's really surprising. I thought you were just a young high school boy who was relatively small and had not changed his voice. I didn't expect you to be such a young child." Zhuangtang Hu Tao leaned closer and said, "It's like Sherlock Holmes dressed up as a child."

"Yes, is that?" Conan opened his mouth.

Zhuang Tang Hu Tao smiled playfully, covered her mouth and whispered in his ear: "Although I can't see, I can see things that others can't see."

After saying that, she stood up and held up the blind stick, "Then I will go back to the room and wait first. I'll ask you for the next thing, Mr. Detective."

"Yes!" Although Kogoro Mouri didn't understand why, he still reluctantly responded.

Conan raised his little face and nodded with a smile.

...

The restaurant has a long table and the sushi has been set in front of the seats for several people.

"It's so delicious, it's really a super-grade one." Kogoro Mouri smacked his lips, at least retaining a little reserve.

Conan looked at Taifu Baogu who was waiting aside and invited, "Mr. Butler, come and have a meal together. Miss Zhuang Tang just said, please eat with us."

"Okay." When Baogu Taifu heard that it was Zhuangtang Hu Tao's order, he did not refuse.

"Sure enough, what is made of wild seafood is delicious." On the opposite side, Chuangwu commented like a foodie.

"No, this is artificially cultivated." Namoto Takahei said slowly.

"What are you talking about? This is obviously a wild fish!" Tsugo snorted coldly at the half-time, then looked at Kogoro Mouri, "Mr. Detective, do you think so?"

"Ah..." Kogoro Mouri, who was inexplicably affected by the Ikeyu, was a little vague.

--If you ask him how it tastes, he can say "delicious". But that's all. If you have to use more and more professional vocabulary to describe it, he will be too exhausted, let alone professionally distinguish whether it is wild or artificially farmed fish.

But he didn't know, but someone knew.

"It doesn't matter whether it is wild or artificially raised." Chen Xing's voice appeared clearly in the scene, light and a little careless in the alienation.

Chen Xing, who was about to grab sushi, couldn't help but jump, then glanced at Conan, who had been hiding under the tablecloth next to him at some point, and the latter showed a silly smile, blinked his wise little eyes and made a gesture of "please."

This kid is indeed becoming more and more bold. He doesn't communicate in advance and just impersonates him.

Just when Chen Xing was in a complicated mood, Chuangwu in the opposite half of the room was a little angry and said, "What do you mean? What does it mean doesn't matter?"

"I think this is quite important." Nanmoto Takahei also said: "Mr. Detective, who is this guy with you?"

"Ah, he is actually my assistant, yes, assistant." Kogoro Mori didn't know what "Chenyuki" was going to do. He was taciturn before, but suddenly spoke, which scared him, and obviously angered the two people on the other side.

Then, the arrogant and rude 'assistant' of the detective said indifferently: "You want to show that the young man in his memory knows the sea and fish well, and likes sushi in front of Detective Maori. You want to take advantage of this rare opportunity."

The two black and white people on the opposite side changed slightly, and they subconsciously wanted to refute.

But 'Chen Xing' immediately interrupted coldly, "No wonder, after all, it is related to the bonus of 100 million yuan."

His indifferent tone seemed to be a slight depression. Even Chenxing couldn't help but wonder if he heard this, did he usually speak?

So, he quietly glared at a boy who was imitating and was trying hard to stop.
