Before he finished speaking, Kudo Shinichi interrupted him directly:

"I see!"

I don't know what he understood.

He turned around directly and said confidently:

"Mr. Lin, I will leave it to you to protect the scene."

"I'll go to the department store next door first."

"Um..." Lin Xinyi wanted to say something with a subtle expression.

But Kudo Shinichi hurriedly walked out as if he was participating in a race with someone.

"Wait!" Ishikawa's eyes flickered and he followed closely: "I, I'll go with you."

"You want to follow?"

Kudo Shinichi's tone was very meaningful.

"Yes..." Ishikawa said bravely: "I...I am also very interested in famous detectives and want to see how you handle cases."

"Okay, it's okay for you to follow and take a look."

Kudo Shinichi shrugged, indicating that he had no objection at all.

He continued to walk forward, and Ishikawa followed behind him with a stiff expression.

"Um...Shinichi, I'll go too!"

Looking at Ishikawa's strong and burly body, Mao Lilan also hurriedly followed.

She couldn't rest assured if this bully, who was suspected of being a murderer, was to follow Shinichi.

In this way, headed by Kudo Shinichi, the three of them left this quiet alley.

And before walking out of the alley completely...

Kudo Shinichi suddenly stopped at the entrance of the alley, turned around, and said to Lin Shinichi with piercing eyes:

"Mr. Lin Xinyi."

"Although it's a bit bad to say this, this time...maybe it's an opportunity for us to compete again."

Lin Xinyi: "..."

He doesn't seem to be competitive with others on this kind of thing.

But Kudo Shinichi has quietly been immersed in the excitement of facing the challenge:

"Let's take this opportunity to compete."

"I will use my investigative methods and you will use yours to see who can find the truth of this case first."

"That..." Lin Xinyi hesitated to speak.

But the great detective Kudo disappeared at the end of the alley without looking back:

"See you later, I'll go investigate first."

Ishikawa and Mao Lilan then left, leaving only Lin Xinyi in the alley, Miyano Shiho who was quietly watching the show, and Aoki who was so nervous that he started to tremble.

"Well..."

"Forget it, he might as well go investigate more."

Looking at Kudo's high-spirited retreating figure, Lin Xinyi's expression was a little subtle:

"But then again, what's the point of competing?"

"Such a simple case... wouldn't it be solved just by looking at the body?"

He talked to himself, his tone was very helpless.

Then, Lin Xinyi stood up from the body and said calmly:

"Aoki-san."

"Huh?" Aoki couldn't help but trembled when his name was suddenly called.

He raised his head and saw Lin Xinyi staring at him with eyes as sharp as a knife:

"Can you still hold on to this mentality?"
