Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

"What about Xiao Ai?" Ayumi turned to ask Haibara Ai, "Will you go with us?"

"It seems that either side is important," Haibara Ai was a little embarrassed, but thinking that she didn't particularly care about solving the case, she looked at Koshimizu Nanatsuki, "I'll follow Nanatsuki-san."

"Then it's the same for me," Mao Lilan asked with a smile. "Then, Sister Nanatsuki, where do we start our investigation? If you don't have a clue, can you go to the library with Brother Feichi? There should be a lot of books in the library. We have more people, and we can investigate faster."

Yueshui Nanatsu hesitated for a moment, looked at Chi Feichi and said, "I want to see Miss Tsurumi first, she might also become the target of the murderer, and Elizabeth and Sophia are the key to this case, I want to see her again. Ask her about Elizabeth and Sophia, you go to the library first, and after we have been to the herbal medicine hall, we will go and check the information for you."

She really wanted to follow Chi Feichi to check the information, but everyone was investigating so seriously, she felt that she should put her selfish desires aside and try to take all aspects into consideration.

Chi Feichi didn't want anyone to stare at him all the time, nodded and said, "I'll be waiting for you in the library, you all take care of your own safety."

Conan pondered for a while, and felt that this arrangement was fine.

Although he felt that Isesaki Masahide's suspicions were inferior to those of Tsurumi Tsurumi and Sakuragi Gong, there were always suspicions, so Dr. Akasa and the children were watching, and clues could be found in time, and even if something happened, Akasa The doctor can also stop the children first, and don't let the children get rash.

He and his uncle went to find Isesaki together, but he actually wanted to make it clear - this case, the murderer appeared with a burnt face, alluding to Sophia, Ejinhara, Toda Jiro, Motomachi Seizo Was it really because of the will that the killer was targeted? Will there be any other inside story? If these people give up the inheritance will, will the murderer stop there?

If possible, he would like to persuade Isesaki to give up his will and to test the murderer. It would be better if he could learn some clues from Isesaki.

It's okay for Chi Feichi to go to the library. He believes that Chi Feichi should have more clues than them. Going to the library is for verification purposes. If he solves some doubts, the final reasoning is the same as Chi Feichi's. , they'll meet at the library.

In addition, Tsurumi Yeh is one of the suspects. Although the children seem to have no doubts and are unwilling to doubt Tsurumi Yeh, it should be noted that Tsurumi Ye and Sophia in the photo in the herbal medicine hall look the same, which makes him vaguely Taking a guess, Elizabeth is not without descendants.

In this way, Tsurumi Yoko is the most suspicious, and it is a bit dangerous to let the girl group pass, but Tsurumi Yoko is a woman, so it is more appropriate for girls or children to contact her.

Detective Koshimizu has the sense of smell and reasoning ability as a detective. Xiaolan sometimes notices details that only girls will notice. The guy in Haibara is observant and has strong intuition. , it is also suitable for their meticulous girl group to pass, and these three people, one can know kendo, one can know karate, and one probably has a small bottle of hypnotic gas on him. .

...

After breakfast, Ayumi gave Chi Feichi her detective armband as a liaison tool, and then a group of people split up and rushed towards their goal. .

Dashan Mi listened to Chi Feichi, assigned a bodyguard to the girls group, brought another bodyguard to Jiangshenyuan Library with Chi Fei late, stood at the front desk, and watched Nuoda's library filled with rows and rows Bookshelf, I couldn't help but be stunned by the huge collection of books, "Consultant, where do we start to investigate?"

"Taking the war as a time reference, when Sophia was mentally abnormal to the point of death, it should have been between 1943 and 1944. The body of the missing boy was found in the third year after the war," Chi Feichi said, "You start from 1943, Investigate the reports in Jiangshenyuan in the past five years, and find out the reports about Sophia."

"No problem, I can get it done this morning." Dashan Mi nodded and assured that Chi Feichi didn't even ask about what he was going to check, and brought the bodyguard to the librarian to ask for a newspaper.

Chi Feichi didn't ask the administrator to find out the location of the target he wanted to check. First, he walked around the entire library and figured out the divisions of each area. After Dashan Mi and the bodyguard carried a pile of newspapers to the reading area, they also went to the reading area. When I arrived at the area where the newspapers were placed, I found the newspaper of Jiang Shenyuan in 1952.

The approximate year of his grandmother's arrival in Jiang Shenyuan can be determined, so first check whether there was anything special in Jiang Shenyuan before and after this time...

Wuming and Dashanmi stayed in the reading area obediently, under the watchful gaze of the administrator from time to time, paying attention to Chi Feichi who was quickly flipping through the newspaper.

Chi Feichi set his reading speed to the fastest, and turned over the newspapers one by one, and found that there was only a report on 'The Field Group Investment Terminal', and he was not disappointed. Name of the person mentioned more or less, and start flipping through your notes.

Some people became famous after making contributions to Jiang Shenyuan, and they wrote some notes and kept them, while others were reported by newspapers because of their notoriety. With the signature of the work, you can turn out all the relevant notes of the past few years.

There are hundreds of related books, and Chi Feichi didn't plan to sift through them all by himself. He secretly linked the Ark with his left eye, took a book, held the spine of the book with one hand, and pressed the page with the other, like shuffling cards, letting his hands The pages of the book turned quickly.

The corners of the pages are almost connected, and they are quickly taken by the left eye camera and scanned into the Ark system, and then continue to the next book...

It took a lot of time to flip through hundreds of books, but when Chi Fei was halfway through, he suddenly noticed a strange notebook.

The person who left the note was a policeman from the Jiangshenyuan Police Station at that time. Because of his seriousness, responsibility and enthusiasm, he became a man of the Jiangshenyuan during the Meiji period. He died in the line of duty in 1953, which was reported in the local newspaper.

This is a thread-bound notebook. It is well preserved, and there is no torn edge of a page, but the notes from the period before the police officer's death in 1952 and 1953 should appear more than one place. Missing pages.

The reason why he noticed that the book had missing pages was because the book was thick and thick as a whole. When the policeman was writing on one of the previous pages, there was a thin line of ink that went beyond the edge and left on the edges of other pages. I noticed a little trace, closed the book, and took a cursory look. The ink line was not long and normal. Only by turning the pages like he bent the body of the book could we see that there were some breakpoints in the ink line.

After discovering such a book, Chi Feichi waited for his left eye to take a picture of the contents of the book, then temporarily stopped his "scanning" behavior and flipped through the notes by himself.

This is a half-diary and half-account book. There is nothing worth noting at the beginning. He joined the company on a certain day in a certain year, mediate disputes on a certain day in a certain year, and what development did Jiang Shenyuan usher in on a certain day in a certain year? It also documents promotions and raises and some neighborhood chores.

The first missing page was in the spring of 1952. Three pages were missing. At the same time, the Field family donated the dock to Jiang Shenyuan. With this police officer's personality, he likes to pay attention to and record everything, but such a big thing is not recorded.

Since this police officer doesn't record Japan regularly, sometimes he doesn't record it once for more than ten days, sometimes it's twice a day, sometimes it's a long story, sometimes it's just a sentence "the weather is good, I have to work hard today", he can't judge the lack What is the record of a few days, and how many are recorded.

The pages of this kind of book are not ridiculously thick, but the words written on the previous page cannot leave traces on the next page unless they are very hard, and he cannot restore the words left on the previous page through the following pages. .

After these two pages, page misses became frequent and irregular, with five pages in the summer of 1952 and three pages in the autumn of 1952, in different places, without continuous page misses.

Before and after that, there didn't seem to be anything significant to notice.

After that, the notebook ended in the fall of 1952, and from the winter of 1952 until before his death, the policeman did not seem to have made any more records.

is it possible?

After Chi Feichi closed the book, he looked at the seal on the spine again.

Judging from the diary, this police officer is very curious and has a strong sense of justice. Even if it is a trivial matter such as a neighborhood dispute, he likes to investigate clearly and then make the best mediation. At the same time, he is also very keen... He belongs to the kind of people who are more likely to die. humanoid.

Looking at the notes after the summer of 1952, the content of which became shorter and longer and the intervals became longer and longer. It seems not surprising that this police officer gave up writing a diary, but according to some details that became dejected, such as 'sunny day, flowers by the roadside' Opened, thinking of that child, the mood is even worse', he is more inclined to make another guess——

The policeman discovered something and suffered a lot of psychological pressure, and he was no longer so positive in the face of life.

The seal on the spine of this book is old, at least forty or fifty years, that is, not long after the police officer died in the line of duty, the diary was opened, and the pages of the contents that were not wanted to be found were carefully picked out. It is likely that a large number of notes from the winter of 1952 to the time of the police officer's death were taken and re-bound.

In other words, the clues left in it have already been cleaned up...

"Huh? Conan? Why did you come here?"

Dashan Mi's voice came from behind the rows of bookshelves. Since the library was very quiet, it could be heard from a distance.

Chi Feichi quickly checked the books again, and after confirming that there were no hidden pages, ~www.NovelMTL.com~ took down the other books in the same row, put them back in disorder, and started to take books from other places.

Anyway, the situation of the books has been photographed, and he can slowly find clues, but before that, he has to destroy the traces of which books he has found.

The death of the police officer is not suspicious. The newspaper said that he was shot and shot by the robber on the way to track down the robber. A colleague testified about this incident, and the robber was arrested later, but there were not many reports. The handling of the case was also very rough. Are the police officer's colleague sure there is no problem?

However, the incidents that happened after 1952 may have something to do with the Field family. He didn't want to attract Conan to investigate and find out what happened to his family.

"I'll come to the library to see..." Conan's voice came from the front desk, "Mr. Dashan, where is Brother Chi? Isn't he with you?"

"I asked Mr. Dashan and the others to help look up the newspaper reports related to Sophia, and I went to read the celebrity notes." When Chi Feichi walked out of the bookshelf, he took out a note he had prepared before and walked to the front desk, "The teenage detective who investigated Sophia back then There are three people in the regiment, namely Mr. Toda Jiro, Mr. Motomachi, Mr. Isesaki Riki, who are now known as the Three Saints."
