Chapter 189 Brother Mori, it's you again!
Chapter 188 Brother Mori, it's you again?
"What?!"
Conan's somewhat uncertain words drew the attention of Wang Changsheng, Sakura, Tomoyo, and Ran Mouri, who all turned to look at him.
"Well, it seems so. I'm not quite sure what happened, but judging from his expression, he seems to have something to say. Sister Xiaolan, you should call the police."
Conan noticed that everyone was looking at him, their eyes filled with surprise, and he couldn't help but chuckle to himself.
Isn't it magical?
I find it amazing too!
A perfectly healthy dead man, after being interrogated—no, diagnosed—by him and Uncle Mori, who confirmed he had no vital signs, suddenly got up from the ground after a while and seemed perfectly fine...
The moment Conan confirmed the presence of the deceased, he had already begun a meticulous investigation and analysis of the surrounding environment. However, after spending half a day on this, he was told that the person was alive again.
This inevitably disappointed Conan.
Of course, he wasn't hoping for the death of that boss, Masaka; he was just a little disappointed.
"Well……"
Ran held up Tomoyo's pink cell phone, momentarily speechless, but a few calls came from the other end of the line, bringing her back to her senses.
"Oh, I'm sorry, here's the thing..."
Ran relayed Conan's words to the police dispatcher.
A dismissive voice came from the other end: "Determining whether a victim is dead should be done by a doctor. What if the deceased simply suffered some kind of accident? How can you fabricate a story based on your own experience? Is the location the Ochiai Art Museum? Okay, I'll arrange for people to come right away."
When I first heard that someone had died, the operator was very cautious and enthusiastic, asking me about everything in detail.
Now, I heard that the person is alive again, but for some reason, they have become mute. The operator's originally enthusiastic attitude suddenly turned cold.
Xiaolan was a little confused.
Why does it seem like nobody wants this Mr. Zhenzhong to live?
Isn't it a good thing that the person didn't die?
Why are you all so disappointed?
"Okay, okay, thank you very much." Xiaolan nodded and politely thanked them when she heard that the police would send someone over.
Before she could finish expressing her gratitude, the call was disconnected.
Xiaolan: "..."
Are you in such a hurry to answer the next call?
"Huh?"
Just as Ran was pondering some strange things, Conan walked up to Wang Changsheng, tilted his head back, and grinned foolishly, "Brother Wang~"
Wang Changsheng saw the little brat grinning slyly at him, rolled his eyes, and before he could say anything, slapped him on the head.
"Snap"
A crisp sound rang out.
Immediately following was Conan's howl.
"Awoo!"
Message: Negative points from Conan Edogawa +7474
Why did you hit me?!
Conan stared at Wang Changsheng, completely unprepared for his sudden attack.
"Huh?" Wang Changsheng looked at his hand, then at Conan's head, his eyes widening slightly, his tone innocent and naive: "Sorry, I don't know what happened, I just heard you talking and suddenly couldn't help but slap you."
Conan: "?"
Message: Your friendly interaction makes Conan want to jump up and punch you in the knee...face (forgot you're still a little kid).
Message: You have acquired the second-level spell—Blindness!
Message: Negative points from Conan Edogawa +999
Message: Wang Changsheng's negative points +999
"?"
What the hell?!
Wang Changsheng rolled his eyes at the system in his mind.
If he hadn't shrunk, Conan could only hit his knee if he jumped up!
Of course, Conan also shrank...
"What exactly were you trying to say?" Wang Changsheng asked, looking at Conan.
"(｀へ′)" Conan glared at Wang Changsheng again, then a serious look appeared in his eyes. "Weren't you guys just at the door? You really didn't go in to check?"
"Clam?"
Why is this guy asking himself that?
Could it be that he would even doubt a child?
Wang Changsheng looked down at Conan and said, "(???；) You're not suspecting us, are you? We were just outside, trying to go in but not being able to. Didn't I already tell you that?"
"You did say that..." Conan narrowed his eyes. "I just wanted to confirm it one more time. Before you got here, what was it? You said you had something to discuss. What was it?"
Conan's words sounded like an interrogation. Before Wang Changsheng could answer, Ran frowned and said to Conan, "Conan-kun, you can't be so rude!"
Uncle Mori was even more direct, punching Conan squarely on the head: "Don't play those detective games, you little brat!"
"Ouch!" Conan felt a sharp pain in his head, as if another big bump had grown.
He gasped, hissing as he covered his head with his tongue.
"Dad!" Ran's eyes widened. "Even if Conan is wrong, you can't hit him!"
Conan: "..."
What did I do wrong?
Wang Changsheng is clearly a very suspicious guy, okay?
Damn it!!!
"I just wanted to ask what Brother Wang and his two older sisters were doing just now. They weren't playing any detective games!" Conan protested.

"Even if you were to ask, it's not your place to ask what she just did. Ran, did you call the police?" Uncle Mori didn't even look at Conan, but instead focused his gaze on his daughter.
"Huh? Yeah, I just called the police using the cell phone this little girl has." With her father asking, Ran put aside the matter of Conan and answered.
"Just call the police, and let them handle the rest." Uncle Mori nodded.
"How is that guy called Boss Manaka doing now, Dad? Why did you come out by yourself?" Xiaolan turned around and looked at the door of the Hell Exhibition Hall.
"He should be alright. I came out to check if you've called the police." Uncle Mori waved his hand. "The man was stammering and couldn't say anything coherent. Let's wait for the police and ambulance to arrive before we talk about it."
Conan rubbed the two large bumps on his head and looked at Uncle Mori with a resentful expression.
He hadn't even finished treating one before another one popped out.
It's unbearable to repair!
Hearing Uncle Mori's words, Conan rolled his eyes in exasperation.
Yes, nothing really happened.
That is, he could not speak, could not move his hands, could not lift his legs, and was weak and limp all over, lying on the ground like a lump of mud.
Recalling the way Boss Manaka had looked just now, Conan couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
Although Mr. Manaka didn't say anything while they were inside, judging from his terrified eyes and the way he was desperately trying to express something, he must have experienced some very important moments for him.
"Won't something happen if I leave him inside alone?" Xiaolan was still a little worried.
Uncle Mori shook his head upon hearing this: "This person was probably frightened by something. We can't be sure if there are any suspects at the moment. I just took a quick look inside, and there's no one else there. We just need to guard the door and not let anyone in or out."
Conan, however, held a different opinion when he heard Uncle Mori say that.
He felt that the real boss must have been harmed by someone.
Although he didn't die, Conan still felt that the culprit should be caught.
only……
Although he had only arrived at the art museum today and hadn't spent much time there, he had heard quite a bit about the person lying in the Hell exhibition hall.
It seems that many people in this art museum have a motive to harm this owner, Mr. Manaka.
There's no way around it; people who regularly visit this art museum all know something about Director Ochiai and Boss Manaka's affairs.
Conan walked past them, and these people didn't bother to lower their voices when speaking to a child. So, after Conan deliberately walked past them many times, he managed to overhear most of what they were saying.
"Little Wang Changsheng, I know you're scared, but don't be afraid. When the police arrive, just answer whatever you need to know, understand?"
Uncle Mori shooed Conan aside, then squatted down and looked at Wang Changsheng, Sakura, and the other two with a friendly expression.
Of course, this friendliness was only in Uncle Mori's own mind; in Wang Changsheng's eyes, it seemed somewhat greasy.
He silently took two steps back, and in perfect unison, Sakura and Tomoyo also took two steps back.
Uncle Mori: "..."
"Don't worry, Uncle Mori, we have experience. We understand!" Wang Changsheng smiled slightly.
They cooperated with the police investigation in the last roller coaster case. For the three children, it was just a matter of giving a statement, and the police wouldn't deliberately make things difficult for them.
"That's good, that's good." Uncle Mori smiled sheepishly, then stood up.
They didn't have to wait too long.
Police in Beika Town always act very quickly.
A short while later, a group of police officers walked over.
"Hmm? Inspector Megure?"
Upon seeing the person who had arrived, Wang Changsheng raised an eyebrow.
Wasn't this person still alive? Why is Inspector Megure here?
Like him, Conan and Uncle Mori are also somewhat strange.
"Inspector Megure, what brings you here?" Uncle Mori greeted them.
Several police officers were following behind Inspector Megure. When he saw Uncle Mori, Inspector Megure couldn't help but twitch his lips: "Brother Mori? It's you again?"
"Why do I keep running into you lately?" Inspector Megure asked, somewhat annoyed.
I don't know what's wrong with me lately, but I run into this guy almost every day, and every time I do, it's never a good thing!
"Officer, we called the police, of course you'll see us." Conan's headache had subsided by now, and he looked up to help Uncle Mori out of his predicament.
"Did you call the police?" Inspector Megure glanced around and noticed that Uncle Mori was followed by four children.
Inspector Megure: "..."
Of these four children, one is a familiar face, and the other three look familiar too...
"Yes, yes, I called the police. I used this girl's phone. Her name is Tomoyo." Ran nodded in agreement.
"Tomoyo?"
Upon hearing that familiar name, Inspector Megure realized what was going on.
Isn't this Daidouji Tomoyo from last time?
Since the roller coaster incident, Inspector Megure has basically learned about Tomoyo's background.
just.
"What are you doing here?" Inspector Megure was wearing a hat, and his chubby face and sharp eyes gave him a different aura.

"We're here with the school for a club sketching activity," Zhi Shi said quietly among the three of them, Wang Changsheng.
"School club activities?" Inspector Megure frowned upon hearing this. "Aren't you students in the neighboring town of Tomoeda? What are you doing here for club activities?"
Tomoyo and Wang Changsheng glanced at Inspector Megure.
How are they supposed to explain this?
This is just an activity arranged by the school; it's just next door.
It has to be said that Inspector Megure, as a veteran frontline detective, shares some similarities with Conan.
For example, they would both suspect anyone who could be suspected.
Compared to Conan, who is almost always right when he suspects someone, Inspector Megure is somewhat...
Well, it's a long story, a long story indeed!
When Wang Changsheng watched anime before, he always thought that Inspector Megure and the other police officers just wanted to catch a criminal as soon as possible to get rid of the job, and then go online with friends after get off work.
But every time, Conan ruins things, dragging them along for a while, talking about all sorts of random things, and he likes to create suspense and mystery, just keeping them in suspense and not explaining things clearly, as if he wants to deduce every single detail for them.
So every time Inspector Megure sees Uncle Mori, Conan, and Ran together, he gets a headache.
That's what Wang Changsheng thought.
"Inspector Megure, you can take a quick statement from these kids later if you have any questions. Now you should go check on the person inside. He's still lying on the ground. I was worried about disturbing the crime scene, so I came out first. These kids came with me, so they're helping to guard the door. I can guarantee that no one has gone in since I discovered this place."
Although Uncle Mori occasionally makes some outrageous and bizarre deductions, he is at least a normal person. Therefore, when Inspector Megure asked why the school organized club activities next door, he was speechless.
Why else could it be? It's just that they've arrived!
Of course, Director Ochiai and Yoshiyuki Terada had already briefly explained to Uncle Mori why they had come, and Uncle Mori didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all.
"Really? Well, thank you for your hard work, Mori-kun." Inspector Megure paused for a moment, then nodded.
So this is the guy who brought it.
"Let's go inside."
Inspector Megure waved his hand, ordering his officers to begin the search.
As he passed by Wang Changsheng, he hesitated for a moment, wondering if he should secretly tell the three children not to associate with this Maoli Duo in the future, lest they get into trouble.
However, after thinking about it, he still didn't say anything. These three children were no ordinary people; their families were all very wealthy, some even extremely rich and powerful.
Don't remind others; even he himself should minimize his interactions with them.
