Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 449: Flaming Red Horse, surrendered arsonist

"What? You said you would set fire?!"

The Maori detective office, Gao Cheng and Xiao Lan interrogated the woeful uncle Ryuto Gentian face to face.

"Yes, I'm sorry!" Uncle Wonang lowered his head with tears, "I'm really sorry! I just want to get the key chain back, otherwise... there will be a fire. Uncle, I will set fire to the key chain... …"

"Well……"

Looking at the fat man who was crying, Xiaolan and Ye were a little unaware, so they looked at each other, and finally looked at Gao Cheng together.

"Mr. Xuan Tian," Gao Cheng picked up the key chain with Guan Yu and Chituma pendants, and asked in silence for a while, "you mean, the previous few fires and the key chains left at the scene were all Did you do it? Why do you do this?"

"I don't know, I really don't know anything!" Gentian cried bitterly and hugged his head. "There is another self in my body. He must have set fire to me when I was not aware. This is the 5th Chome, if it is the key. If the chain is here, he will definitely be messed up again, please..."

Gao Cheng was a little speechless.

"The key chain cannot be returned to you yet, but we have notified the police and they will take you away soon... Mr. Gentian, maybe you should go to the hospital..."

"I've been there. I had sleepwalking when I was a child, and it seems to have happened again recently," Gentian wiped a tear from his eyes, "I've been to a psychiatrist several times, but it's useless..."

Gao Cheng frowned and looked at Xuantian who was quiet.

The arsonist was caught so quickly, and the other party admitted to his crime...Although the sleepwalking statement seems a bit unreliable no matter how you think, there is no other explanation for the time being, and it can only be handed over to the police for investigation.

Soon the police came to the Maori Detective Agency and took Xuantian away, as well as Guan Yu's key chain as evidence.

"City household seniors," the two Xiaolan silently watched the police car go away, feeling a little uncomfortable, "Is that uncle really an arsonist? On the bus coming back today, we saw us holding a pile of things and gave up our seats. Now I ran back hard to get the key chain..."

"Who knows if he wants to find out the location of the fire target first?" Gao Cheng retracted his gaze and said, "Well, now that the arsonist was caught, Xiao Ai and I should also go back..."

In fact, he also had a lot of doubts in his heart.

First of all, why did Xuantian rush to find Xiaolan and Heye in the evening, and even found a detective like him. His anxious appearance didn't look like a fake.

And it happened to come after a fire broke out on the 4-chome side of Cupto...

I remember the bus route from Shibuya back to Mihua, it seems to be Shibuya to Cupido to Mihua and then to Toshinmachi...

Toshincho?

Gao Cheng and Xiao Ai walked downstairs to the Maori detective office, and suddenly stopped.

"What?" Xiao Ai raised her head, "Do you still want to intervene?"

"Sorry, Xiao Ai, you stay here for the first time," Gao Cheng sinks his heart. "I think there is a hidden story in this incident, and that uncle cannot be allowed to become an arsonist."

Xiao Ai sighed softly, her expression reluctantly flashed softly: "Detectives are so many things, then I'll stay here for one night."

...

In the Metropolitan Police Department, after Gao Cheng made a call, he followed the old acquaintance Officer Sato who happened to pass by and entered the building.

"Are you going to the arsonist search team?" Sato said curiously while leading the way, "I heard about the arsonist too, didn't it mean that the prisoner has been arrested?"

"Yes, it was the police who called me, and the other party also surrendered, but... I always feel that there are still some problems."

Gao Chengyuguang looked around, and occasionally felt a fierce gaze staring at this side, and along the way, there was an uncle policeman who was gnashing his teeth.

He took back his previous words. There are also such terrifying uncles in the Metropolitan Police Department, but what's the matter with these people, isn't it just getting closer to Officer Sato?

"That detective boy is here. I heard that he had a blind date with Officer Sato?"

"Damn it, Takagi, forget it, now there are outsiders intervening..."

"???"

Gao Cheng followed Sato somehow, and didn't feel better until he found the arsonist search team.

The uncle and the others followed a flat-headed police officer in the room to discuss the case, and there were many exhibits on the table.

"Xuan Tian still can't say anything," Officer Bow pointed to several burnt equatorial horses. "However, these red horses that remained at the arson site are indeed the red rabbit horses on the key chain. According to you According to the statement, Xuantian not only visited the victim, but also wandered around before the fire, so..."

Officer Bow was in deep thought, and suddenly saw Hattori and Conan touching the exhibits randomly, and hurriedly shouted: "Hey, these exhibits were finally obtained from the laboratory, you guys be careful!"

Hattori picked up the toy horse in the first case: "This horse still retains the red rabbit horse base, with the word ‘rabbit’ on it... Why is only this horse scorched?"

Gao Cheng just entered the room and took the initiative to say: "Will the base of the red rabbit horse be ripped off by the arsonist?"

"City households?"

Conan was surprised when he heard the words, but Officer Bow was very calm: "Detective Joto had contacted Gentian, so I also found him."

Hattori raised his face: "What does it mean to tear off the base?"

"If you have a base, you might be found to be a red rabbit horse. It's easy to suspect that Mr. Xuantian who took Guan Yu key chain everywhere as a promotional gift..."

Gao Cheng sat down beside him.

"I have already asked Mr. Genta about the antique shop in Cuptomachi. There is a very strange place. Mr. Genta has distributed the store's product descriptions and gift keychains near the antique shop from the morning, but because of the bad reviews before, The key chain sent today has actually been replaced by a lucky cat..."

"What's so strange about this?" Uncle Maori stunned. "Maybe he got it wrong..."

"That's the problem. The pendant is in a box. It's not surprising to get confused. So when I came just now, I studied the route of Mr. Gentian's activities today."

Gao Cheng opened a bus map stall on the desktop and pointed out the red lines.

‘Mr. Genta first distributed the key chain around Zhujiao’s house, right? ’

"This..." Uncle Maori nodded, "We did see him at Zhujiao's house distributing key chains and catalogs to Mrs. Zhujiao, and he was driven out by Mrs. Zhujiao..."

"Then it was around 5 o'clock in the evening, Mr. Gentian went back to the antique shop to check it out, and later it was when Xiaolan and the others met Mr. Gentian on the bus," Gao Cheng continued, "it was past five o'clock at the time, Mr. Gentian should It’s by car back to Toshincho’s house...

Uncle Maori nodded stunnedly: "Speaking of which, the bus did pass through Beitou, Mihua and Uizancho... But then why did he go to Zhujiao's house and set it on fire again?"

"Wait," Hattori looked at the road map drawn by Gao Cheng, and his expression suddenly changed. "The reason why Mr. Gentian went to Zhujiao's house again was probably not to set fire, but to find that he had sent the wrong message. The key chain wanted to be recycled... so after the fire broke out, I hurried to go to Wuchome to find Heye and others..."

Officer Gong frowned and lit a flue: "It's very similar to Gentian that I know... In fact, when the fire broke out, we also suspected Gentian for a while, but I don't think that guy would set fire. People."

"Is it the first time of arson in Toshiyama?"

"Well, he was watching the lively crowd, muttering to himself strangely while looking at the flames, talking about Dad..."

The bow length spit out a long puff of smoke under the gaze of everyone~www.NovelMTL.com~ lost in memory.

"The guy’s father is a firefighter. When he was in elementary school, he was killed by the fire in order to rescue people trapped in the sea. So we thought, maybe Gentian set fire because he missed his father. If there is a fire, my father will rush over..."

"That's obvious," Uncle Maori said in a deep voice while holding a red horse. "If his sleepwalking is very serious, then what he said is another argument for his own arson, and it may be true... But what about the police? Will it still be subject to developments?"

"That's because there is really no evidence, and... he is not the kind of person who will set fire to other people's houses, he is not that kind of person," Gong Chang looked tired, shook his head and left the room. "No If possible, I will ask him again."

"Mr. Bow Long..."

Hattori moved his gaze away from the route map, and watched the bowman leave in doubt: "What's wrong with him?"

"I also think Mr. Gentian is not an arsonist," Gao Cheng gently picked up the first burnt red horse. "You can't let things end like this." Fupin Chinese
