018 'Mori Detective Case Book'

After obtaining Hanyu Qing'an's permission, Conan already knew the specific situation from Mao Lilan, but he did not agree with any Onmyoji's statement and kept trying to expose Hanyu Qing'an's "deceptive tricks."

"Ahem~ I know this." Mouri Kogoro was very confident today. He was still in high spirits in the middle of the night and had the time to explain to Conan, "Because dusk and dawn are the so-called evil times."

"When encountering a demon?" Mao Lilan tilted her head, and then suddenly said, "Ah, it turns out that's the case. I thought it was for some other reason."

"That's right, that's right." Mouri Kogoro continued to be a good teacher, "When encountering demons, it is the time when yin and yang meet. That's why Master Hanyu said before that as soon as the sun rises, all the power of ghosts and monsters that do not belong to this world will dissipate."

Conan's face was blank. How could he not know when encountering demons? He just wanted to hear Hanyu Qing'an's explanation with his own ears, and then observe his expressions, demeanor, and the loopholes in his words, and then find a way to expose them!

Why is Uncle Maori so unusually in the mood to explain himself today?

"I see, I didn't even expect that. It seems that Brother Maori is still useful." Officer Megure touched his chin, nodded and muttered.

"Legend has it that after the sun sets, the sky is not completely dark. This period of chaos between day and night is when the door to the underworld opens. At this time, people who are going home to rest, and the monsters from the underworld who have just come out, will have troubles.

The short-term coexistence, which is the so-called encounter with demons, as the night gets darker, the world becomes the paradise of the underworld, until the sun rises again..."

Mouri Kogoro talked nonsense in a serious manner. Basically, people of his generation had heard the legends about demon times from their elders when they were young, so there was nothing new about them.

Mao Lilan was so frightened that she looked out the window at the dark night, pulled Conan back into her arms and hugged him tightly. Officer Megure nodded in agreement, but Conan and Hanyu Qing'an were the only ones who disagreed.

Hanyu Kiyosu looked at the Hyakki illustrated scroll in his mind, but he couldn't find any reason for what Mouri Kogoro said.

Nothing happened all night, except that Conan tried to study Omu Yu several times, but was caught back by Mao Lilan, and then hugged him tightly in his arms and fell asleep on the sofa...

"It's almost dawn..." Officer Mumu's eyes were red. He had the heaviest responsibility here and he didn't dare to relax at all.

Hanyu Qingan nodded, he also had a sleepless night, "Yes."

Mouri Kogoro was leaning on the sofa, snoring to highlight the tranquility before dawn.

The two people who were still awake looked at Ohmuyu who had been standing in the glass room for the whole night. Finally, Officer Memu couldn't help but stepped forward and spoke.

"President Okiyu, it's almost time. Could you please lie down on the bed?"

"I want to see the sunrise..." Ohmuyu's voice seemed to be rusty, making a hoarse and harsh voice, "I haven't seen the sunrise in a long time."

Officer Megure sighed, "Sorry."

Oki Yuya sighed and turned around stiffly. Before leaving the living room, he couldn't help but stop and look back at the glass room.

"Let's go."

Omu lay down safely on the bed in the bedroom, with peach blossom petals scattered on the ground. He regretted it very much at this time. He always stayed up all night and hated the morning sun disturbing his sleep, so the bedroom window faced west.

He can't see the sunrise here.

Soon, the peach blossoms on the ground melted...



"President Oki spent the whole night in a daze. Was he reflecting on his life?"

Mao Lilan pulled the yawning Conan, feeling a little depressed. She was always easily infected by other people's emotions. Of course, this also made her more considerate of other people's feelings.

"Who knows." Mouri Kogoro yawned as much as Conan, "But I don't think he is reflecting on what he has done."

"Why do you say that?"

"Except when he was not clear-headed at the beginning, he never mentioned the driver until his death. I'm afraid he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong at all. He probably regretted not being able to enjoy life better." Maori Xiao

Wulang didn't take it seriously, paused and added, "At most, I feel a little guilty for my family."

"Is this so..." Mao Lilan felt a little hard to accept.

Hanyu Kiyosu glanced at Mouri Kogoro, who was still in a shapeless state, and agreed more with his statement. He always said that people are about to die, which is a good thing, but in fact it is not necessarily the case. Human nature cannot be changed so easily.

It's just that when faced with life and death, some things can be seen more clearly than usual, so it seems as if one has achieved great enlightenment.

Sitting in the passenger seat of the hearse, Hanyu Qing'an asked the three Maori people outside the window: "Are you really not going back in my car?"

Mouri Kogoro and Mao Lilan waved their hands and rejected his kindness. Conan was moved, but Mao Lilan made the decision for him.

"Actually, Xiaolan, you can record this case, and then write down your own thoughts, as well as other cases that the Maori detectives will solve in the future, and write a "Maori Detective Incident Book" or something like that." Hanyu Qing'an suddenly said that he had no idea.

The words at the end.

Facing Mao Lilan's big puzzled eyes, Hanyu Qing'an added, "Writing it on paper saves you from holding it in your mind and thinking about it. It is a way to relieve your emotions. If it can be published in the future, it can also help Maori Detective

Spread the word.”

Toru Amuro started the car, leaving behind a trail of exhaust fumes and the three people were confused. Conan's mind was filled with Hanyu Kiyosu's "Xiaoran", and his face was complicated.

""Maori Detective Casebook"?" Xiaolan murmured, "He is a very gentle person."

She can naturally understand that what Hanyu Qingan said was to let her channel negative emotions so as not to hold them back.

Conan curled his lips and looked unhappy.



On the way, Toru Amuro said calmly, "President, why don't we take the body with us?"

Hanyu Qingan rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Well, Officer Megure will take it back to do an autopsy and file it first. It will take a few days, and then we will be notified to collect it together with the family of the deceased."

"So that's it..." Toru Amuro seemed to really not understand, "Speaking of which, I saw your driver's license left in the car, President. Why did you hire a driver when you obviously know how to drive?"

Hanyu Qing'an opened the storage box and took out his driver's license, and said casually: "Oh, I lost my memory once before, so I forgot how to drive."

Of course that was not the case. It was just that Hanyu Kiyosu was not used to using his driver's license as an ID card, so he left it in the car.

The driver was recruited because he was not used to driving on the right side.

But when Toru Amuro heard that things were different, he thought it was strange, as abrupt as the lice on a bald man's head, and there was definitely something wrong with it.

As he drove the car, he kept paying attention to Hanyu Qing'an's face. The latter was tired and sleepy, and was already in low spirits. For a moment, he seemed to feel guilty.

Hanyu Qing'an thought, are what he said so false? Otherwise, why would he keep looking at me?

Toru Amuro: He feels guilty!

"Anuro."

"Um?"

"Drive well."

"...Okay." Toru Amuro narrowed her eyes and looked at him deeply, "Do you want to go back to the funeral home?"

"No, go to the bank."
